Grant is done for the year

Reports out of Wisconsin are that starting running back Ryan Grant will out for the season. What was originally thought to be a high ankle sprain is actually a severe sprain along with a fracture below the right kneecap. He will be moved to injured reserve shortly.

This makes Brandon Jackson the starter in Green Bay. Although he probably won't be as productive in fantasy football as Grant was expected to be by his owners, Jackson should be a decent No. 2 back for as long as he is the starter. John Kuhn may also see more goal-line touches in Grant's absence.

After Jackson, the most popular waiver wire pick-up this week will likely be San Diego Chargers wide receiver Legedu Naanee. He had five receptions for 110 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 1 loss to Kansas City.

Good news for the owners of Arizona running back Beanie Wells. He is expected to return to practice this week and, barring a setback, should play in Week 2.

The Jimmy Claussen era may be starting sooner than expected in Carolina as head coach John Fox is considering making him the starting quarterback for Week 2. He has no fantasy value until he actually plays and does something.

It looks as if running back Shonn Greene is on the hot seat with the New York Jets. He fumbled twice on Monday and the coaching staff has indicated that LaDainian Tomlinson may be getting more playing time in Week 2. If you have a strong option behind Greene, consider using him until this situation clears up.

Owners of Philadelphia quarterback Kevin Kolb may want to start surfing the waiver wire for help this week. He failed his initial concussion test Monday and may not be able to play this weekend. Michael Vick would likely start in his place and would be a decent play for a week or two.
