Gipson suffers sprained left knee at practice

Browns FS Tashaun Gipson sprained his left knee during practice Friday.

Coach Mike Pettine called the injury minor, and said Gipson could return by midweek. A 2012 UDFA out of Wyoming, Gipson recorded 95 tackles and five interceptions over 15 starts last season. Jordan Poyer filled in for Gipson during practice Friday, but newly-signed Jim Leonhard would likely handle the free safety duties if Gipson is forced to miss any regular season games.

Packers RT Bryan Bulaga on track to return

Packers RT Bryan Bulaga (questionable, ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's Week 3 game against the Bengals.

It's a needed upgrade to the offensive line with LT David Bakhtiari (hamstring) doubtful. The Packers struggled to protect Aaron Rodgers last week, forcing him to make most his throws outside the pocket. Bulaga has been sidelined since the preseason, but his return should improve a pass game that will be without Randall Cobb.

Sam Bradford cleared of structural damage

After visiting Dr. James Andrews, Sam Bradford (knee) remains week-to-week with a bone bruise.

Bradford went to Andrews for a second opinion and mostly received good news. Andrews cleared him of any structural damage, meaning it will be an issue of pain tolerance for Bradford, who is sitting out for a second straight week. Obviously the Vikings will need to tread carefully given Bradford's long history of injuries, though the team is obviously anxious to get him back. He'd be an enormous upgrade on journeyman Case Keenum, who is starting against the Bucs in Week 3.

Terrance West (calf) active for Week 3

Terrance West (calf) is active for Week 3 against the Jaguars in London.

West sat out the first two practices of the week, but he was able to get in a full session on Friday. Despite being active, West may not be ready for a full workload at less than 100 percent, and Buck Allen has out-touched him 40-29 through two weeks. Allen looks like the better fantasy play and a quality RB2 while West is more of a hope-for-a-touchdown FLEX option.

Jalen Ramsey (ankle) active for Week 3

Jaguars CB Jalen Ramsey (ankle) is active for Week 3 against the Ravens in London.

Ramsey was limited most of the week and sat out Thursday's practice because of the injury, but he will play through the issue as he did last week against the Titans. LT Cam Robinson (shoulder) is also ready to go. Jacksonville declared WR Jaelen Strong (hamstring), OLB Lerentee McCray (knee), QB Ryan Nassib, T.J. Yeldon, OL William Poehls, OL Josh Walker, and CB Jalen Myrick inactive for Week 3.

Jay Ajayi (knee) cleared for Jets matchup

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport ‏reports Jay Ajayi (questionable, knee) is expected to play Week 3 against the Jets.

Ajayi was held out of two practices this week, but it was more of a maintenance situation than a threat to his Week 3 status. He shouldn't have any limitations despite the questionable tag. There's concern over how Ajayi's knee will hold up with Miami playing 16 consecutive games, but Dolphins should continue to ride him in a matchup that favors a run-heavy gamescript.

Jordy Nelson (quad) expected to play Week 3

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Jordy Nelson (quad, questionable) is expected to play Week 3 against the Bengals.

There was some concern early in the week, but coach Mike McCarthy said on Friday he expected his No. 1 receiver to suit up. With Randall Cobb (shoulder) likely to sit, Nelson should see more snaps in the slot, where he has excelled the last two seasons. He is a high-end WR1 this week.

Melvin Gordon (knee) expected to play Week 3

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Melvin Gordon (knee) is expected to play Week 3 against the Chiefs.

There never seemed to be much doubt despite a questionable tag, but confirmation is always nice, especially since this is a late-afternoon kickoff. A good bet for a touchdown every week, Gordon is a locked-in RB1.

Jordan Reed considered a game-time decision

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Jordan Reed (chest, shoulder, toe) will be a game-time decision.

Schefter says he is "more unlikely to play" than to suit up, but Washington will still take it to the wire. The good news for Reed owners is Vernon Davis is available in most leagues and a great fill-in option if Reed cannot play.

DeMarco Murray 'more than likely' will play

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports DeMarco Murray (hamstring, questionable) "more than likely" will play Week 3 against the Seahawks.

This seemed to be the way things were heading after Murray returned to a limited practice on Friday, but ESPN's Cameron Wolfe suggested Murray is unlikely to get a full workload even if he suits up. Derrick Henry will be the better fantasy play regardless of Murray's status.

Schefter: Rob Kelley not expected to play

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Rob Kelley (ribs) is not expected to play Week 3 against the Raiders.

This is a big surprise after Kelley was able to practice all week. Unfortunately, we will not know Kelley's status for sure until Sunday night, putting owners in a tough spot. Samaje Perine is still available in a lot of leagues and is a must-add, especially for Kelley owners.

Cam Newton (shoulder, ankle) will play Week 3

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Cam Newton (shoulder, ankle, questionable) will play Week 3 against the Saints.

There was never much doubt, but it is good to get confirmation. Newton has only attempted 57 passes through two games with just 399 yards and two touchdowns to show for it, but he could not have a better matchup than at home against the Saints. He is a solid QB1.
