The road was closed once again on Sunday with yet another detour derailing Baltimore's running back. Dobbins was , which will cost him the remainder of the season. The injury occurred early in the third quarter after a first half that saw Minnesota Twins Custom Jersey Dobbins score a touchdown, seemingly announcing his return to fantasy relevancy.But the injury bug seems to enjoy taking bites out of the Ravens roster. It's been a theme in recent years, something that continued on Sunday. Dobbins, Ronnie Stanley and Tyler Linderbaum all exited Sunday's game at some point. With two prominent injuries along the offensive line, it will be worth monitoring their status, especially as it relates to Baltimore's rushing attack. If they mi s extended time, it would cap the ceiling on an already banged-up Ravens team.

History tells us that Edwards will end up being the better option of the two, though it remains to be seen how Minnesota Twins Jersey new offensive coordinator, Todd Monken, will deploy his troops. Both players are available in a majority of Yahoo leagues, with Melvin Gordon III also hanging around on the practice squad. We also wouldn't be surprised if Baltimore signed a veteran like Kareem Hunt or Leonard Fournette.Options outside the Ravens offense are aplenty, with Kenneth Gainwell, Kyren Williams, Joshua Kelley, Tyler Allgeier, and Deon Jackson/Zack Mo s headlining Jason Castro Jersey the best available options in most leagues.WEEK 2 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | UPDATE:Packers' coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that the team is still "" Jones' hamstring injury.Turns out, the Packers might have an ownership stake in the Bears.

Jones indicated after the game that the Ervin Santana Jersey score played a part in him remaining sidelined, saying he . That is good news for fantasy owners, who were treated to a performance that included 41 rushing yards, 86 receiving yards, and two touchdowns. As expected, Jones was the best weapon on offense for Matt LaFleur's team.At this stage, it seems unlikely that the running back will mi s any time, especially if his comments after the game are any indication. If he does, AJ Dillon rockets up the rankings and becomes a must-start option as the clear RB1 with no obvious challenger. If Jones takes a turn for the worse, his owners should look to the top RB pickups we mentioned above, including Gainwell, Kyren Williams, Hill, Edwards, Kelley, and Jackson/Mo s.
