0:00.0	Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast.
0:16.6	I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score.
0:20.3	And today's episode is presented by head and shoulders.
0:23.1	Offense for great hair, defense against flakes.
0:26.8	On today's show, we are previewing week nine,
0:29.9	but there are a lot of moving pieces in the NFL before we get to the week nine games,
0:34.8	including another positive COVID test in the Thursday nighters.
0:39.3	So first we had AJ Dylan test positive on Sunday.
0:42.9	He's on the Packers in their backfield.
0:44.9	That forced one of their other running backs, Jamal Williams, to be ruled out Thursday night
0:49.6	because he was ruled a close contact to Dylan.
0:52.9	Now one day before the game, we get Kendrick born on the 49ers testing positive as well.
0:58.4	So as of right now, we're recording this on Wednesday afternoon.
1:01.9	As of right now, this game is expected to be played as scheduled on Thursday night.
1:07.2	The Packers are supposed to fly out in an hour or two here.
1:10.6	So we're going to find out whether the NFL decides to change anything pretty soon, I would think. But it wouldn't surprise me if this game gets moved back to the weekend. We've already seen that happen once where a Thursday nighter got moved to Monday a few weeks back with the bills and chiefs. So we'll be following it as usual. My Thursday rankings update, that's going to reflect all the latest news.
1:30.2	So no worries there whatsoever.
1:32.0	We also have another big name player on the COVID list.
1:36.6	But I'm going to ask our guest about that in a second.
1:39.2	And before we bring him in, no, I'm not going to do the usual.
1:42.2	Subscribe to the podcast and the rating and review stuff. I just want to give him a special shout at. Our guest today is Derek Brown. You know him. You love him. He's been on the show before. I think the last time we had him on was in the summer. It was after the NFL draft, I believe. But Debrough is a guy who is always there for you. We had a late cancellation this week. A guest who couldn't make it, and it's okay. That happens. But D-Bro was right there to step in and fill in for us. He's been on the rise since we last talk to him. He's the senior fantasy football analyst over at FtN. He's the host of the Fade the Chalk podcast and you can keep up with all his stuff on
2:19.3	Twitter at D-Bro underscore FFB. Derek, man, welcome back to the show. And once again, thank you
