San Francisco 49ers WR Bruce Ellington (hamstring) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Tuesday, Aug. 30. He is out for the season.
Footballguys View: There goes an interesting dynasty prospect, down for the year. Ellington could work well as a slot receiver in Chip Kelly’s system, but now we’ll have to wait and see if he can make a comeback next year. It looks like Jeremy Kerley could be the team’s slot WR in 2016.
New England Patriots WR Aaron Dobson is on the trading block.
Footballguys View: Who needs a WR with bad hands? We can’t imagine the market is going to be white hot for Dobson’s services. In college at Marshall, people blamed poor QB play for the lack of production from Dobson. Well…he doesn’t have the excuse in the pros catching passes from Tom Brady. A second-round pick in 2013 by the Patriots, Dobson may not get many more chances in the NFL.
