Sunday morning injury updates

Gronk out, Edelman and Josh Gordon in

The Sunday morning inactives are filtering in, along with the ones that are already official. No Melvin Gordon, of course, and no Rob Gronkowski either. But New England's questionable wideouts, Julian Edelman and Josh Gordon, are both active and should be fine to use.

As discussed in Ian's post last night, the Gronk absence benefits New England's other pass catchers. Alas, you can't take a chance on Jacob Hollister, since he's also out with a hamstring injury. And when Gronk has missed time in the past, Dwayne Allen has done nothing, so best not to go down that road either.

  • Josh Gordon (hamstring) and Julian Edelman (heel) are both officially active, and they should be the main targets. Sony Michel (knee) is also active as the main running back. Same game, Allen Robinson (groin) and Khalil Mack (ankle) are active and will play.

  • Carlos Hyde is officially inactive for the Jaguars. Sorry, Ian Rapoport, you got played.

  • Theo Riddick (knee) is inactive, making it a nice week to use Kerryon Johnson; he should pick up a few extra looks in the passing game.

  • Isaiah Crowell (ankle) is active for the Jets, hurting the appeal of Bilal Powell as the committee will face off with a tough Vikings run defense.
