San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder, toe) suffered a shoulder and toe injury during the Week 1 game, and his availability for Week 2 is uncertain at this point, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Fantasy Spin: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if Purdy practices this week and is cleared to play in Week 2. The 49ers have multiple offense players dealing with injuries, so fantasy players may want to consider other options at quarterback.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) is expected to miss several weeks because of the hamstring injury he suffered in Week 1, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Fantasy Spin: Luke Farrell and Jake Tonges will likely share playing time at tight end while Kittle is sidelined, but neither player should be considered a starting option in fantasy leagues.

The San Francisco 49ers are still evaluating tests done on wide receiver Jauan Jennings (shoulder) after he injured his shoulder in the Week 1 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday and never returned. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said initial tests looked OK, but there is still more to come. The 28-year-old missed basically all of training camp and the preseason due to a minor calf injury and a contract holdout before catching two of five targets for 16 yards and injuring his shoulder in the season opener. More targets will be available for him if he's able to play in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints with tight end George Kittle (hamstring) expected to miss three to five weeks, but it could be a mute point if quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder, toe) is also unable to play. Ricky Pearsall is the clear WR1, but the recently signed Kendrick Bourne could be in for a substantial role if Jennings misses time.

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson (foot) has been ruled out for the Monday night contest against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings in Week 1. Johnson was able to get in a limited practice on Saturday after being listed as a DNP on Thursday and Friday, but it was not enough for the Bears to clear him to play in the season opener. He has been dealing with a foot injury since early August and could be in danger of missing Week 2 against the division-rival Detroit Lions as well. With the 24-year-old sidelined on Monday, rookie seventh-rounder Kyle Monangai is expected to work as D'Andre Swift's backup, although it probably won't amount to a ton of action in his first regular-season NFL game. If Johnson continues to miss time and Monangai impresses, it's not out of the question that Monangai could leapfrog Johnson on the RB depth chart.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (hamstring) is likely to miss three to five weeks with the hamstring injury that he suffered in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, a source tells Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It makes Kittle a candidate to land on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. The 49ers' offense is dropping like flies, with receiver Jauan Jennings suffering a shoulder injury on Sunday and quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder, toe) dealing with multiple injuries that could keep him out in Week 2 versus the New Orleans Saints. Fantasy managers should not be dropping Kittle, but it may be a while before we see him back on the field. Jake Tonges and Luke Farrell will be tasked with picking up the slack at the TE position, but they won't be realistic fantasy streamers, especially if Purdy also misses some time.

The Chicago Bears have declared CB Jaylon Johnson, LB T.J. Edwards, QB Case Keenum, OT Kiran Amegadjie, RB Roschon Johnson, CB Kyler Gordon and DE Shemar Turner inactive for Week 1.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder, toe) is dealing with a left (non-throwing) shoulder and toe injury that "make him uncertain" to play in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said team will see how Purdy's practice week goes, but if he cannot play, backup Mac Jones would be in line to start this Sunday. In addition to Purdy's injuries, tight end George Kittle suffered a hamstring injury in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks that is expected to sideline him multiple weeks, while receiver Jauan Jennings also injured his shoulder. Purdy went 26-for-35 passing for 277 yards, two touchdowns and two picks in Week 1 but could now miss a juicy matchup against the Saints. If Jones is forced to start this weekend, he'd be a desperation low-end QB2 in superflex formats with limited weapons in the passing game.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (shoulder) is on the initial injury report for Week 2 and was listed as limited on the team's estimated injury report for Monday. The Commanders conducted a walk-through practice. While Ekeler's status should be followed heading into Thurday night's tilt against the Green Bay Packers, he should be able to suit up in Week 2. The 30-year-old played on only 33 of the team's 70 offensive snaps in their Week 1 win over the New York Giants while carrying the ball six times for 26 yards and catching all three of his targets for 31 yards as a pass-catcher. Rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt led the team's RBs with 10 carries and had a team-high 82 rushing yards and a touchdown. JCM already looks like the leader on early downs in Washington, leaving Ekeler as the Commanders' primary pass-catching back in a committee.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. The Packers did not actually practice on Monday. Reed's availability for the Week 1 game against the Detroit Lions was up in the air as he battled a left-foot injury, but he ultimately was active in Sunday's 27-13 win and led the team with five targets, hauling in four of them for 45 yards and his first touchdown of the year. However, the 25-year-old played only 38 percent of the offensive snaps to open the year. Reed could continue to have his practice reps monitored as he works his way through a Jones fracture in his foot, but he should be able to play this Thursday night as long as he is able to practice on either Tuesday or Wednesday. If he's active Thursday, he'll be a low-upside WR4/flex for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Matthew Golden (ankle) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) were both listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. The Packers did not actually practice as they head into a short week this Thursday night to kick off Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. Wicks was also on the Week 1 injury report but ended up playing in the Week 1 win over the Lions, catching both of his targets for 30 yards. Golden will join the injury report for the first time in 2025, but the 22-year-old first-rounder should play on Thursday night. In his NFL debut, he was quiet, going for two catches for 16 yards while playing just under 50 percent of the offensive snaps. If Golden is active on Thursday, he will be the more attractive WR4/flex upside play over Wicks against Washington.

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that the team planned to give running back Najee Harris 12 to 15 plays in the Week 1 season opener last Friday in Brazil against the Kansas City Chiefs and capped him at 12. However, Harbaugh said Harris' workload could change in a Week 2 divisional clash on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. Harris was only on the field for 12 plays last Friday in the 27-21 win but managed just one carry for five yards while catching his only target for another five-yard pickup. Meanwhile, first-round rookie Omarion Hampton led the Bolts' backfield with 15 carries for 48 yards (3.2 yards per tote) while adding two catches for 13 yards. Harris missed almost all of training camp and the entire preseason with an eye injury, which is why L.A. eased him in. While he could see the field more in Week 2, he still won't be much more than a shaky RB3/flex in fantasy.

Washington Commanders P Tress Way (back) did not participate in practice Monday, Sept. 8. WR Noah Brown (knee) and RB Austin Ekeler (shoulder) were limited during practice. TE John Bates (shoulder), QB Jayden Daniels (wrist), DT Daron Payne (calf) and DE Deatrich Wise Jr. (knee) fully participated in practice. The Commanders only held a walkthrough Monday, so the report is an estimation.

Washington Commanders WR Noah Brown (knee) was limited during practice Monday, Sept. 8. The Commanders only held a walkthrough Monday, so this is an estimation.

Fantasy Spin: Brown was able to play in Week 1 despite the injury and will likely be on the field again this week. He caught two of his three targets in the opener and should see a few targets against the Green Bay Packers this week. Fantasy players likely have better options available and can avoid Brown.

Washington Commanders RB Austin Ekeler (shoulder) was limited during practice Monday, Sept. 8. The Commanders only held a walkthrough Monday, so this is an estimation.

Fantasy Spin: Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation to see if Ekeler will be ready to play in Week 2. He shared playing time with Jacory Croskey-Merritt in Week 1 and finished with 57 total yards. He should be involved in both the running and passing game against the Green Bay Packers and can be a possible flex option in fantasy leagues.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said on WEEI on Monday that rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson will remain a "big part of what we do" moving forward. While Rhamondre Stevenson got the start in the Week 1 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday and led the team with seven rushing attempts, he was only able to muster 15 yards on the ground while catching two of three targets for 12 yards. Meanwhile, Henderson was much more efficient on five carries, rushing for 27 yards (5.4 yards per carry), and he also caught all six of his targets for 24 yards through the air. On special teams, the 22-year-old back from Ohio State returnedtwo kickoffs for 43 yards. Henderson's fantasy managers have to be pleased with his involvement in the season opener, and he should have more upside in Week 2 against a Dolphins D that gave up 33 points to the Colts.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) is considered day-to-day on Monday after he left the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday and did not return, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Bowers also downplayed his knee injury and said there are no concerns, suggesting that he should be just fine to play in a Week 2 divisional tilt next Monday night versus the Los Angeles Chargers. The 22-year-old second year tight end could be rested once the Raiders open their practice week on Thursday, but all signs are pointing to him being available as a must-start TE this coming week. Bowers was lobbying to return to Sunday's game against the Pats, but the Raiders didn't want to take any chances with a player who has quickly become one of the best TEs in the NFL. Despite leaving early, Bowers still managed five catches on eight targets for 103 yards.
