Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Joe Burrow has no update on timeline
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (calf) has no update on his timeline to return. Head coach Zac Taylor said he is “several weeks from when [he last] said several weeks.”
Fantasy Impact
The first time Taylor said Burrow was “several weeks away” was July 28, nearly two weeks ago. Taylor’s response indicates that there is likely little update on Burrow’s return from his calf strain. The Bengals’ first game is September 10, and Burrow will likely miss preseason action for the second season in a row in order to keep him healthy. Expectations are that last year’s fantasy QB4 should be ready for the regular season until any updates say otherwise.

Damien Harris misses practice Wednesday
According to Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN, RB Damien Harris missed the Buffalo Bills practice on Wednesday to rest a sore knee.
Fantasy Impact
Harris signed a one-year deal with the Bills over the offseason and could be in line to be a part of a committee backfield in 2023. The fifth-year back was listed as the Bills’ RB2 on their first unofficial depth chart behind second-year RB James Cook. If healthy, Harris could poach some early-down work, short-yardage looks and red zone action, areas where he’s excelled compared to the 190-pound Cook. Harris is being drafted on average as the half-PPR RB40 due to his projected limited role and lack of pass-catching chops, though in a potent offense, he’s an intriguing late-round best ball pick.

Rashod Bateman activated from PUP list
The Ravens activated WR Rashod Bateman from the PUP list Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Bateman landed on the physically unable to perform list as he continued to recover from foot surgery for his LisFranc injury. Bateman will see more competition for targets this season with the additions of Zay Flowers and Odell Beckham Jr. The former first-round pick will now get to begin working with the team to get ready for the 2023 season. Bateman currently ranks as the WR48 in ECR, according to FantasyPros.
