Dallas not expected to have Sean Lee Thursday

Cowboys ILB Sean Lee (hamstring) is not expected to play in Thursday's game against the Raiders.

Lee was originally slapped with a 3-4 week timetable when he went down during Week 10. Jerry Jones now considers the Week 14 Monday night game against the Bears a realistic target date. Without Lee, Ernie Sims racked up a season-high 10 tackles in the win at the Giants in Week 12.

Fournette officially questionable for Week 7

Leonard Fournette (ankle) is questionable for Week 7 against the Colts.

Fournette didn't practice at all this week, though he did do some running off to the side. Some coaches make rookies practice at least one day for them to be active on Sundays, but we doubt the Jaguars are like that with their best player. For now, Fournette has to be considered a game-time decision. Chris Ivory would make for a fine RB2 play if Fournette is unable to go.

Browns CB McCourty tweaks ankle, gets Q tag

Browns CB Jason McCourty injured his ankle in Friday's practice and is questionable for Week 7 against the Titans.

It's very notable, as McCourty is Pro Football Focus' No. 1 cover corner out of 108 qualifiers after six weeks. His loss would be a huge boost to Rishard Matthews, Eric Decker, and the Titans' passing attack on Sunday. McCourty limited DeAndre Hopkins to two catches for 19 yards on three targets in Week 6, though Hopkins was able to secure a short touchdown to save his fantasy day.

DeVante Parker DNP for 6th-straight practice

DeVante Parker (ankle) remained sidelined at Friday's practice.

He's looking very doubtful for Sunday against the Jets after failing to practice for the sixth-straight time following his Week 5 injury in the first quarter. With Parker likely out, Jarvis Landry should again gobble up targets.

Koetter announces Winston will start at Bills

Coach Dirk Koetter announced Jameis Winston (shoulder) will start Week 7 against the Bills.

Winston suffered a minor AC joint sprain last week in Arizona and was pulled from the game with the Bucs getting shellacked on the road. He threw for the first time on Friday, and all appeared to go well. Winston isn't a recommended streamer, but his presence at least makes Mike Evans, DeSean Jackson, Cameron Brate, and Doug Martin all the more palatable as fantasy plays.

Mike Wallace (back) sits out again on Friday

Mike Wallace (back) remained sidelined at Friday's practice.

Wallace was downgraded to DNP Thursday and Friday, so his status for his return to Minnesota is in question. Expect Wallace to do everything he can to play in this #RevengeGame. Wallace is a last-gasp WR4 option if he plays.

Kelvin Benjamin returns to practice on Friday

Kelvin Benjamin (knee) returned to practice Friday.

He's not out of the woods, yet, but Benjamin's appearance at practice at least gives us hope he could play Sunday against the Bears. In a game likely to be played at a snail's pace with the Bears trying to control the clock while also trotting out an underrated defense, Benjamin is a tough fantasy play.

Winston (shoulder) practices as normal Friday

Jameis Winston (shoulder) threw at Friday's practice.

Per Roy Cummings of Florida Football Insiders, Winston appeared to get in a normal practice on Friday, at least during the portion open to the media. All signs point to Winston suiting up Sunday against the Bills in Buffalo.

Paul Perkins (ribs) officially out for Week 7

Paul Perkins (ribs) is out for Week 7 against the Seahawks.

It solidifies Orleans Darkwa as the lead back for at least another week, and rookie Wayne Gallman will spell him on early downs while Shane Vereen gets his regular pass-game work. Perkins is way behind on the depth chart after averaging a laughably-bad 1.9 YPC on 32 attempts from Weeks 1-4.

Sterling Shepard draws Q tag Week 7 vs. SEA

Sterling Shepard (ankle) is questionable for Week 7 against the Seahawks.

Shepard got in a round of limited practices this week after missing Week 6 following a twisted ankle the previous game. He should be back in the lineup and compete with Evan Engram for the team lead in targets the rest of the way. Shepard is likely to move all over the formation for the Giants.

Cards benching CB Bethel for Tramon Williams

Coach Bruce Arians intimated Tramon Williams will be starting ahead of CB Justin Bethel for Week 7 against the Rams.

It has been looking like this was going to be the course of action all week. Per Arians, Williams is "in a bunch of packages, and he’ll be playing a bunch." Bethel has been getting flamed in coverage all year, allowing six touchdowns, two more than any other corner charted by Pro Football Focus, and is the site's No. 99 cover corner out of 108 qualifiers. Williams is 34 and coming off a horrific 2016 with the Browns, when he graded out as PFF's No. 102 cover man out of 120 corners. It's still a matchup to exploit. Williams should see a lot of Robert Woods on Sunday.

Patrick Peterson good to go Sunday in London

Coach Bruce Arians said CB Patrick Peterson (quad) has looked "fine" and will play Week 7 against the Rams.

Peterson had to be pulled from Week 6 against the Bucs and was limited in practice this week. However, he's ready to roll for his date with Sammy Watkins, who has been a complete non-factor since his big game against the 49ers a few Thursdays ago. Watkins will remain that way in Peterson's shadow coverage. Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp have better matchups.
