for running backs. It's not a matter of would they trade for a running back. It's a matter of would they pay the, you know, seven plus million for the rest of this year as a rental for Levy on Bell. No. You know who I think will, would be very interesting in green next year? That's Tevin Coleman. Hmm. Won't shock me if he ends up in Philadelphia. Coach Kyle Shanahan says Matt Breda will not practice Thursday and is doubtful.

139 passagesto play. Yeah, there were, I believe they are, are they Monday night football? Yes. So he's got a little bit extra time to recover reports where he has not been ruled out. He could possibly play Monday night. Stop. It's not happening. Just rule the dude out. Yeah. It's not happening. Like calling it now, Matt Brita is not playing on Monday night football. So prepare for that and don't get your hopes up with all these reports saying.
things to the contrary. The reason why he has not been ruled out is the MRI on his ankle revealed it was more of a mid ankle sprain than a high ankle sprain. How many times do we need to see Matt Brita go down with it just in a heap and looks like a season ending injury? We're on three straight weeks now. Let the dude rest. He's a smaller back and he's being used. Give him with some time off. Let him go to the beach.
I don't know that I would ship him to the beach. I would probably still keep him around. You don't have to ship him. He can take a car. I'm not putting him in a crate. I'm just saying, you know, figuratively. You know, I'd still want to. Don't worry. I'll cut you in air hole, Matt. Oh, thank you. Here's some straw. Make a bed. Coach Matt Schumer on Monday says Evan Ingram has a shot to play. This Thursday, Evan Engram.
Tight-end sensation for the New York Giants. They're talking about him running at full speed today at practice, or they're going to try to get him to. We'll talk about him as, well, we can just mention it right now. He's probably not available, but I've seen him dropped in several leagues, including my 12 team Money League. He's available. Brooks was talking about he's in a league where he's available. Make sure you look at your waiver wire to see if you can pick up Evan Engram. Greg Olson says he is expected to play for week six.
Congratulations to Greg Olson. We will see. Jaguars placed Austin Safarian Jenkins on injured reserve. This escalated rapidly from the close of yesterday's show. We were ending the show, and I mentioned that while Austin Saffarian Jenkins did not perform well, he was only on the field for 24% of snaps dealing with his injury. Niles Paul looked great. So I was like, if they give Austin Saffarian Jenkins a week off.
Dan Niles Paul becomes interesting. They did. We end the show and 10 minutes later is like, and he's on the injured reserve. Matt Ryan underwent x-rays on his foot. The x-rays checked out okay. Matt Ryan is good to go. Brown's wide receiver, Rashad Higgins, sprained MCL, expected to miss at least two games. That's important information because now they will be forced once again to put Antonio Callaway back into a full allotment of snaps unless they make some kind of move in Cleveland.
You know who they could use? Des Bryant. I was thinking Josh Gordon. Oh, yeah, him too. They need Josh Gordon and the Raiders need Khalil Mack. And the Dallas Cowboys need Des Bryant. I mean, people. Come on. Yeah. Let's take a look at what's happening. Look at your team before shipping people out. And this is in here, but I'll read it. Cardinals signed Kendall Wright, wide receiver formerly of the Vikings. The Cardinals now have.
25 slot wide receivers. That is true. Cool. It doesn't matter. I mean, come on. Come on. Hey, before we jump into the waivers, we'd like to thank today's sponsor, Pristine Auction.

Yeah, finally. We've had a few dumpers. As they say. Uh, yeah, huge, you know what's super weird about this week is how many, like,
quality tight-end pickups there are. I think there's quality at every single position. Yeah, but, I mean, there's never, tight-ins are just so worthless as a whole in fantasy football outside of the top three guys. And this week, there's just a lot of interesting names worth taking a look. And since there are so many teams that desperately need them, might be, might interest you.
Let's start at the wide receiver position. Mr. Robbie Anderson, Mr. Anderson himself, three for 123, two touchdowns on five targets. He only played on 51% of the snaps. He ran 15 routes. However, the Jets were straight smoking the Denver Broncos, so that could be more of a result of that. But Sam Darnel Schwarzenegger.
Told Robbie to get to the end zone, and he did. He was chucking it deep. Are we interested in stashing Robbie Anderson? So because of Robbie Anderson's talent... Now I think I'm going to get on to the way for a while. Because of Robbie Anderson's talent and deep speed and the fact that he was actually used that way, I'm a slight bit interested to pick him up. Going back, looking further, you know, at...
What's going on with Quincy? What's going on with his injury? How are the routes? A route are good. I don't know why he's talking about. Well, I was going to say, Sam Darnold's not running any routes. His routes are so good. But speaking of Sam Darnold, he has not been accurate down the field. He's been like me like this. I can't look at you when you talk like that. You know, so I still believe that Robbie Anderson is.
You know, it's probably not going to continue happening in the short term for Robbie Anderson. I'm willing to pick him up as a flyer. Hold on, see if you're wrong. Stash? Yes, he's a stash to me. He's definitely not elevated to the point where I'm confident playing him. Quincy still had five targets. The hand issue that was talked about on the broadcast.
I still haven't been able to find hardly anything about this. I couldn't find a beat reporter article. Yeah. So, you know, he did have a couple drops, a holding penalty. I think it was just a bad game for Quincy, a good game for Robbie Anderson. I would still definitely rather have Quincy at this point. Geronimo Allison is available in nearly half of leagues. Green Bay Packer wide receiver. He did not play from the concussion. If he was dropped, you need to pick up Geronimo. He's been very, very solid.
for fantasy football. But his teammate, Jason, Marquez Valdez Scantling, he's available basically everywhere, had a great game on his first start, 7 for 68 and 1 on 10 targets, nearly had a second touchdown as well, played 95% of the snaps, gets to play against San Francisco. Are we interested in picking him up?
Yes, well, 100%. I played him in our listener league this last week because if Geronimo and Cobb are out. That's the qualification. Let's say though. If one of them. Only one out. Let's say only Cobb is out next week. Then you're interested? If only Cobb is out, I'm still interested in Valdez Scantling. He has looked great since preseason. The connection with Aaron Rogers looks fine and Aaron Rogers is, you know.
Something is weird with the Packers right now. Second half Aaron Rogers is looking great. They weren't stopping the Lions at all. So I, yeah, I mean, I want the Packers wide receivers. You should want all of the touchdowns that Aaron Rogers is throwing. You want those on your fantasy team. You should want them. You should want those. Each one is worth more points than a not touchdown. And so get those touchdown. I mean, that's what it's just so.
It's so stupid, but it's so simple. Stunning analysis. I mean, if he, if Aaron Rogers throws the amount of touchdowns that Aaron Rogers throws, this is like a third grade math question. Do you want to pieces? Like, yes, get whoever is on the field. If Cobb is back on the field, get Cobb. All right. Josh Reynolds, Los Angeles, Rams wide receiver jumped in when Cooper Cup and Brandon Cooks were unable to return with the concussion. Two for 39.
had three targets. Head coach McPhase talked about Cooks and Cooper Cup saying they're progressing well. But so at least he's throwing out positive vibes for his guys. But there's a chance that the Rams are without both of Brandon Cooks and Cooper Cup. If that is the instance, do you play Josh Reynolds this weekend? If both were out, I would, I would absolutely play him. But the problem is you have to, you know, you're probably going to have to pick him up.
today put him in today's waivers because someone will probably take a shot and i don't want to pick him up unless i am say i'm the cooper cup owner then i'm willing because you're trying to handcuff your wide receiver yeah at that point it's like okay i'm if i'm not the cooper cup owner i don't expect josh reynolds to be relevant this week like i i don't want to touch him because i think the cooks and cup will
progress through the concussion protocol and be ready to go. But we don't know that yet. It's too early to really be able to. And unlike other injuries, right, a hamstring or a low ankle or a high ankle, there's kind of a timetable for recovery. But with concussions, there's nothing that we, you or I can really point to. It's all about how they're progressing through the protocol. So I don't want Josh Reynolds in general. Kiki QT has been.
A sensation for the Houston Texans this past week, six receptions, 51 yards, a score, seven targets. Kiki has been, he's been on point. He's been extremely effective for basically his first two games of his career. He is serving a very, very large purpose for this Houston Texans offense. Will Fuller did play. That was our one note where Kiki.
Had a monster game two weeks ago. It was okay, well, Will Fuller left the game with his injury where he could have gone back in. Weird stuff. But could Kiki perform with Wolf Fuller on the field as well? And the answer, he can. He can. So Kiki, QT, where is he in your list? Okay, we've talked about Robbie, Geronimo, Vald is Scantling, Reynolds, and Kiki. Is Kiki at the top? Or is he?
Kiki would be second behind Green Bay. I want the touchdowns of Green Bay. So Geronimo, Valdez, depending on what is available on your waivers. A lot of times people are always saying, well, how much are you bidding on these guys? And every week I say this, I don't bid more than $5 on a wide receiver because there's a cup of coffee. Yeah, I mean, exactly. Got a good Starbucks bid a cup of coffee. Virtual cup of coffee. Put those fab dollars in. I'm not spending a waiver priority.
