Fantasy Impact:

Although Ross, who is recovering from shoulder surgery, will likely be sidelined through early August, Hobson maintains that the rookie wideout will still receive Week 1 snaps. Barring a setback, Ross is slated to open the 2017 season as one of the Bengals' starting wide receiver opposite A.J. Green. From a fantasy football perspective, he should be viewed a boom or bust WR3 and targeted in the mid-rounds of upcoming fantasy drafts.
