Hello and welcome into fantasy focus football. It is Friday September 15th. Today's show is presented by Geikos

0:16.6

which the Geikos Yellow is a you could save my name as Daniel Dot join by Stefania Bell and feel Jates is great to see both of you here today great to be here on our Friday. Hello TV

0:24.6

What's going on Stefania? I am loving the pink. Well, thank you. Daniel asked me if I was going to go see Barbie after the show

0:29.9

today in this outfit. Yeah, you should. Someone called electric session, not a bad idea, although I do have fear my newborn. Well, I guess

0:37.9

she's still a newborn technically, but she's almost three months old. We'll probably sleep the entire movie. The whole time great. I

0:43.9

wanted a half year old would probably ask for like five trips to the snack bar and probably have to go to the

0:50.0

bathroom, even though she's not party trained, but she's still fine. I'm going to go to the bathroom with three times. I have to do three

0:53.8

diaper changes and five snack bar trips during one movie. I think you can handle that and processing movie at the same time. Hey, I don't

1:00.7

know how to find you, but I appreciate your confidence that I lack in myself. Yeah, I don't know if there's anyone that could do a feel that

1:05.4

I think it would be you. Hey, we got a huge show today week two of the football season is upon us. We have got a Thursday

1:11.8

and a football recap. We're going to do an injury report with Stefania as well as a bunch of rankings for our week two

1:17.6

line up. So let's just dive right into it. Lot to talk about Stefania and big names. We're going to be talking about Austin Eccler, who has been dealing with an

1:25.6

ankle injury, a bunch of fantasy managers ran out, grab Josh, which Kelly, just in case they needed him this week. What's the latest on Eccler for us fantasy

1:33.1

managers? Well, Austin Eccler hasn't practiced yet this week. And part of that Wednesday was due to personal reason, but also the

1:39.8

ankle he did not practice again on Thursday. Friday is going to be a big day at the time. We're recording this. I remember there on the West Coast. So they have not done their Friday practice yet. And you know, the thing is Austin Eccler does not miss

1:51.2

game. This is guy who's been very durable for the bulk of his career. And the team has also allowed him to come up to game day to make the decision on whether he's going to play. But

2:01.1

interestingly, he did hype Joshua Kelly quite a bit and essentially made the case for him being able to carry the load. Could he not go. And I think

2:09.7

he got to be smart when it's a long season. So I say it comes down to the wire. But this is a scenario where I could see Austin Eccler potentially maybe even taking the field, but not doing as much and then shifting the work to Joshua Kelly. That's the worst of the

2:22.2

cover up there. So I and I we none of us have any ability to sus out whether if he does play it's going to be, you know, a full

2:29.6

lotment of snaps or you know, 25% of his normal number of snaps 50% will have to rely on Sunday morning injury reporting to help us in that

2:39.0

situation. If it does arise, but if Austin Eccler sits, I think you're looking at a player in Joshua Kelly, also in catapults to like 25 isch running back. I mean, we're talking about a guy who was not nearly as dynamic as Austin Eccler, not nearly as much of a factor in the

2:53.5

passing game, but a good offense. And we saw him handle double digit carries last week when Eccler got banged up in the third quarter. So wouldn't surprise me if Eccler is out. If Josh Kelly is somewhere in the 15 to 20 total touch
