Fantasy Impact:

Nabers was battling a back injury earlier in the offseason, and it looks like he may still be dealing with the lingering effects of it. The team is going to "back off" of him in practice on Friday, but they are still expecting him to be available to play on Sunday. Fantasy managers should keep tabs on updates about his health moving forward, though the team doesn't seem to consider it a concerning issue.
