Josh Downs (toe) misses practice Wednesday
Josh Downs was sidelined from practice on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Downs continues to play through a toe injury. He should still be good to go for Sunday night’s game against the Vikings barring any setbacks. He gets a boost with Joe Flacco at quarterback for the Colts.

Jordan Love (groin) ‘moving around better’
Jordan Love (groin) has been ‘moving around better’, according to HC Matt LaFleur.

Fantasy Impact

Love’s status for Week 9 is currently up in the air due to a groin injury that he recently suffered. However, HC Matt LaFleur noted that he is moving around better than before, which could be a sign that he’s trending in the right direction. Fantasy managers should keep close tabs on what his official designation ends up being later this week.

Dallas Goedert (hamstring) is not practicing with the Eagles on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Goedert is still working on recovering from a hamstring injury. He isn’t taking part in Wednesday’s practice for the Eagles, which is a bad sign for his Week 9 availability. Grant Calcaterra will continue to get more work for however long the veteran tight end remains out of the lineup moving forward.
