Hello Hello…

Here’s a look at the latest fantasy-relevant news & updates from around the league.

Denver running back J.K. Dobbins was limited in Wednesday’s practice as he continues to manage a foot issue.

FantasyBroz Take:
Dobbins’ availability is critical for Denver, especially with Jarrett Stidham expected to start at quarterback. If he progresses to full participation later in the week, he would immediately regain flex consideration. Monitor practice reports closely.

Wide receiver Pat Bryant was limited during Wednesday’s practice as he continues working through concussion protocol.

FantasyBroz Take:
With two concussions in the past month, Bryant’s status remains uncertain. Denver is likely to be cautious, which could open additional snaps for other receivers if he’s unavailable.

Rookie wideout Troy Franklin was limited in Wednesday’s practice while dealing with a hamstring injury.

FantasyBroz Take:
Hamstring injuries can linger, particularly for speed-based receivers. If Bryant misses time, Franklin’s role becomes more important, but expectations should be tempered unless he logs a full practice.

New England running back TreVeyon Henderson was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice after managing a shoulder issue.

FantasyBroz Take:
The Patriots backfield appears fully intact heading into the AFC Championship. Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson could both be leaned on heavily against a Broncos defense that struggled versus the run last week.

Tight end Hunter Henry was listed as a limited participant Wednesday, though no injury designation was provided.

FantasyBroz Take:
This appears precautionary. Henry remains one of Drake Maye’s most trusted targets and draws a favorable matchup against a defense that has historically struggled against tight ends. He profiles as a solid TE2 with upside.

Wide receiver Mack Hollins did not return to practice Wednesday as he continues to recover from an abdominal injury, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

FantasyBroz Take:
Hollins’ availability for the AFC Championship remains in doubt. If he’s unable to go, Kayshon Boutte should continue seeing expanded opportunities as a downfield option.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen could require a foot procedure during the offseason, according to general manager Brandon Beane.

FantasyBroz Take:
There’s no indication this would impact Allen’s readiness for next season. Buffalo may simply manage his workload during the offseason as he continues chasing his first Super Bowl.

Houston general manager Nick Caserio revealed Joe Mixon missed the entire season due to a medical condition that failed to improve.

FantasyBroz Take:
Mixon’s future in Houston is uncertain. With a sizable cap hit and minimal dead money, the Texans could consider moving on, making this an important offseason storyline.

Tight end Dalton Schultz’s calf injury is not expected to be a long-term issue, per Texans general manager Nick Caserio.

FantasyBroz Take:
Good news for Houston. Schultz remains a reliable safety valve for C.J. Stroud and continues to project as a steady TE2 with weekly streaming appeal.

49ers general manager John Lynch suggested Brandon Aiyuk is unlikely to play for San Francisco again.

FantasyBroz Take:
This outcome isn’t surprising after Aiyuk’s recent roster designation. A change of scenery could help his fantasy value, though durability remains a concern.

Former NFL head coach Mike Martz said he would consider taking the Cleveland Browns head coaching job if offered.

FantasyBroz Take:
At 63 and long removed from the NFL sidelines, Martz is a long shot. His comments highlight how critical solving the quarterback position will be for Cleveland’s next coach.

Eric Bieniemy has agreed to terms to become the Kansas City Chiefs’ new offensive coordinator.

FantasyBroz Take:
This reunion makes sense. Bieniemy oversaw some of Kansas City’s most explosive offenses, and expect the Chiefs to prioritize adding weapons this offseason.

Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson interviewed for the Steelers’ OC vacancy for a second time, signaling strong interest.

FantasyBroz Take:
Robinson’s McVay/Shanahan background suggests a run-focused, play-action-heavy approach. If hired, Pittsburgh’s running backs could benefit the most.
