Lamar Jackson and the Ravens will bid us adieu for this weekend's festivities, along with all of the Colts, Dolphins and Vikings. You'll be able to get replacements for them either from your bench or in the waiver wire runs tonight and Sunday morning.

Kaufman in First Place in Terminator

Over in another one of the unique FFPC formats, the Terminator Tournament, Jason Kaufman's Gametime squad tallied a 205.55 thanks to the likes of Henry, Jefferson, Deshaun Watson's 35.35, Rob Gronkowski's 21.3 and Amari Cooper's 20.9. He now leads the competition by 27.8 points over the second-place RunRaplhieRun team, managed by Benjamin Rosen.

Each owner in this 384-team tourney is forced to cut one player each week until Week 16 when they will be left with 10 players in their final starting lineup of the season. The overall winner will cash a $25,000 first-place prize within a $117,000 prize pool.
