This Week Outlook
Availability
The Detriot Lions place WR Corey Fuller, TE Brandon Pettigrew, and T Corey Robinson on the active/PUP list to begin training camp.
Fantasy Impact
Corey Fuller had a long shot of making any fantasy team to begin the season. With Fuller now starting the season on the PUP list you can ignore him for now.

Detroit Lions WR Corey Fuller (foot) underwent surgery last week to repair a foot injury that was sustained during team workouts.
Fantasy Impact
Corey Fuller played 12 games for the Lions in 2015 and tallied four receptions for 76 yards during that span. Detroit signed Andre Roberts and brought in Anquan Boldin for a visit on Monday to fill Fuller's roster spot heading into training camp. There is no timetable on Fuller's recovery and his status with the team remains in question for the 2016 season.
According to the Detroit Lions' website, the team is "very high" on rising third-year wide receiver Corey Fuller.
Fantasy Impact
A 2013 sixth-round pick out of Virginia Tech, Fuller took a big step forward as a sophomore with 4.4 speed plus a 6-foot-2, 200 frame. While he probably won't make a fantasy dent behind Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate, Fuller could conceivably fill a Robert Meachem or Devery Henderson-type clear-out role in ex-Saints assistant Joe Lombardi's offense.
Fuller started in place of the injured Calvin Johnson on Sunday and caught 3 balls for 44 yards on 5 targets. That includes the athletic 5 yard game winning touchdown from Matt Stafford.
Fantasy Impact
As long as Megatron is out, Fuller is on the fantasy radar as a touchdown dependent WR3. He is getting more snaps and looking more comfortable every week though.
