Chargers quarterback Brad Sorensen, safety Brandon Taylor and wide receiver Malcom Floyd (neck) were among the team's inactives Week 3 at Tennessee.

The Texans inactive list for Week 3 featured no surprises Sunday. The list is: offensive linemen Duane Brown and Cody White; wide receiver Lestar Jean; quarterback Case Keenum; defensive end Tim Jamison; and linebackers Justin Tuggle and Sam Montgomery.

Giants quarterback Ryan Nassib (ankle), running back Michael Cox, offensive lineman David Diehl (thumb), offensive lineman Brandon Mosley (back), tight end Adrien Robinson (foot) and defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins are among the team's inactives Week 3 at Carolina. 

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have listed the following two players as healthy inactives for Week 3 at New England: QB Dan Orlovsky (3rd QB) and DE Steven Means.  

Jets quarterback Geno Smith is probable for Week 3 against the Bills, as he continues to play through an ankle injury. Smith was able to practice throughout the week, and has yet to be limited by this injury. 

Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert was officially ruled out for Week 3 against the Seahawks, despite being able to practice on a limited basis throughout the week with a hand injury. Gabbert has now missed two games as a result of the injury, and it is not yet clear when he will be able to return.

Chad Henne will start Sunday in Seattle. 

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is looking like a Fantasy bust through two games. He's just not doing enough to help Fantasy owners.

So far this season against Carolina and San Francisco, Wilson has 28 Fantasy points combined. He's passed for just 462 yards, two touchdowns and one interception and has 15 carries for 40 yards. He only attempted 19 passes against the 49ers.

This week against the Jaguars, Wilson could again be just managing the game. He could obviously have his way against Jacksonville, but the Seahawks won't need him to do much outside of hand off to his running backs.

We'd only start Wilson if needed this week, but plenty of No. 2 quarterbacks have higher upside like Sam Bradford, Carson Palmer, Andy Dalton and even Terrelle Pryor. We hope Wilson will eventually turn into a playmaker who can benefit Fantasy owners, but right now he's not worth starting in the majority of leagues.

Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill was a full participant in practice Friday, as the team upgraded his status to probable for Week 3 against the Falcons. Tannehill had been limited by a shoulder injury earlier in the week. 

The New York Giants released their injury report for Week 3, and two players -- tackle David Diehl and tight end Adrien Robinson -- have been ruled out for this week's game against the Panthers. 

Guard Brandon Mosley (back), quarterback Ryan Nassib (ankle), and wide receiver Hakeem Nicks (personal matter) are listed as probable. 

Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill will look to stay productive heading into a favorable matchup against the Falcons at home in Week 3.

Tannehill had only 419 passing yards with one touchdown and three interceptions through the first two weeks of his rookie season. Through two games, Tannehill has completed 65.3 percent of his passes and has thrown for 591 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. He'll face an Atlanta defense that allowed 352 yards passing to Sam Bradford last week. Quarterbacks against the Falcons have averaged 28.0 Fantasy points per game through two weeks, the sixth-most allowed in the league.

Tannehill has also used his legs more at home in the past. During his rookie season, Tannehill rushed for 35 yards on 24 attempts away from home. He's rushed for 180 yards and two touchdowns on 34 attempts (5.3 yards per carry) at Sun Life Stadium.

Owners that drafted Tannehill -- or picked him up on waivers -- have typically relied on him as a backup option. At this point, we may need to see more out him before considering him a solid starting option. Keep him on the bench in most Fantasy formats heading into Week 3.
