Bennie Fowler Fantasy

The New England Patriots cut wide receiver Bennie Fowler on Saturday, according to a source. Offensive tackle Cole Croston was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move. This is a sign that right tackle Marcus Cannon will not be able to play in Week 2 against the Jaguars.

The New England Patriots are signing free-agent Bennie Fowler on Tuesday, according to a league source. Fowler played three seasons with the Broncos and had a combined 56 catches for 698 yards and five touchdowns in 45 games. He'll give the Patriots more depth with Julian Edelman out for another three games, but Fowler shouldn't be a fantasy option in redraft leagues. The Pats also signed former first-round receiver Corey Coleman on Tuesday.

The Chicago Bears signed free-agent Bennie Fowler to a one-year deal on Monday. He spent the last three years with the Broncos, catching 56 passes for 698 yards and five touchdowns while appearing in 45 games (five starts). He had a career-high four starts, 29 catches, 350 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games in 2017. Chicago also added Allen Robinson and Taylor Gabriel in free agency, so Fowler will compete for a spot behind them and Kevin White in 2018. He shouldn't be on anyone's fantasy radar entering the season, and he's been known to struggle with drops in his career.
