The Philadelphia Eagles plan is to start quarterback Nick Foles in the season opener on Thursday against the Falcons over Carson Wentz (knee), according to sources.

Ed Dickson Says He's Ready
Seattle Seahawks tight end Ed Dickson (quadriceps) said that he's ready for Week 1 against the Broncos. It looks like he'll come off the Non-Football Injury list ahead of the season opener, but he'll likely be behind Nick Vannett as the main pass-catching tight end if he's active. Dickson can be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Garrett Gilbert Released By Panthers
The Carolina Panthers cut backup quarterback Garrett Gilbert among many moves to trim their roster down to 53 players this weekend. Gilbert was the front-runner to be the backup to Cam Newton, but he lost out on the gig to Taylor Heinicke.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Walker Buehler (foot) left the clubhouse on Sunday to have precautionary X-rays on his left foot.

Evan Engram Expected To Play In Week 1
New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (concussion) has made progress and is expected to play in Week 1 against the Jaguars, barring any setbacks. Engram should be good to go for the season opener, and fantasy owners will want to throw him into their lineups despite the tough matchup. There won't be as many […]

Markus Wheaton, Kamar Aiken Among Roster Casualties
The Philadelphia Eagles waived wide receivers Markus Wheaton and Kamar Aiken, quarterback Joe Callahan and running back Matt Jones as they trimmed their roster down to 53 players this weekend.

Tom Savage Doesn't Survive Final Cuts
The New Orleans Saints released quarterback Tom Savage this weekend after they traded for Teddy Bridgewater this week. The writing was on the wall for Savage once the team acquired Bridgewater. Taysom Hill will be the No. 3 behind Bridgewater and Drew Brees.

Browns Release Devon Cajuste
The Cleveland Browns released tight end Devon Cajuste on Sunday. Cajuste had been impressing in training camp and the preseason, so it's a minor surprise that he didn't make the final roster. The Browns will go with David Njoku, Darren Fells, Orson Charles and Seth DeValve.

Mike Gillislee To Sign With Saints
Free-agent running back Mike Gillislee will sign a one-year deal with the New Orleans Saints on Sunday after being cut by the Patriots on Saturday, according to a source.
