Taylor Bradshaw - Available for Week 5 Bradshaw (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's game at Coastal Carolina.

Impact Now that Bradshaw is cleared, he will look to build off last week's performance against Houston, when the wide receiver logged a 12-yard reception. He is close to recording his second consecutive season with multiple catches, which was not done during his active 2024 season.

3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Josh Dallas - Ready to roll Saturday Dallas (undisclosed) is in the clear for Saturday's game versus Coastal Carolina, per the Sun Belt availability report.

Impact Dallas was deemed questionable on the initial Sun Belt report, but it appears the fifth-year wideout will be able to give it a go after all. He enters the day having amassed a combined 23 catches for 129 yards over the past three games, but he has yet to find pay dirt entering Saturday's clash.

3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jeremiah Ware - Good to go Saturday Ware is available for Saturday's game at Coastal Carolina, per the Sun Belt availability report.

Impact Ware, who was listed as questionable in the lead up to Saturday's game, is now off the report and available. He appeared in each of the first four games of the season, accumulating 13 receptions (on 16 targets) for 161 yards.

3 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Donal Dempsey - Available for Week 5 Dempsey (undisclosed) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game at Coastal Carolina, per the Sun Belt availability report.

Impact Dempsey is in line to suit up for Saturday's game, given he is absent from the injury report. The kicker isn't expected to handle primary duties, as he serves as a depth option.

Taylor Bradshaw - Probable for Week 5 Bradshaw (undisclosed) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's game at Coastal Carolina, per the Sun Belt availability report.

Impact Bradshaw is on track to suit up Saturday due to his probable tag. The wideout hauled in his first reception last week for 12 yards and is aiming to carve out a larger role in the passing attack.

Terrance Gibbs - Return looming Saturday Gibbs (undisclosed) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's matchup against Coastal Carolina.

Impact After not playing in the last three games with an undisclosed injury, Gibbs is probable to make his return Saturday. The running back has just five rushes for 19 yards in one game this season.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Jeremiah Ware - Listed as questionable Ware (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game at Coastal Carolina.

Impact Ware has yet to miss a game this season, and the freshman wideout has been a productive threat in the passing game with 13 catches for 161 yards on 16 targets, although he's yet to find the end zone. With Ware carrying a questionable tag and Ashton Hollins (shoulder) out for the season, Alex Taylor, Andre Greene and Peyton Plott are players who could get more snaps and targets going forward.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Ashton Hollins - Will miss rest of season Hollins (shoulder) is out for the rest of the season, according to the Sun Belt availability report.

Impact The loss of Hollins is a substantial one for Georgia Southern, as the wideout had 14 catches for 202 yards and two scores in his first three appearances of the season. The absence of the senior wideout means Alex Taylor, Andre Greene and Peyton Plott as players who will get more snaps and targets going forward.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Josh Dallas - Questionable for Week 5 Dallas (undisclosed) is listed as questionable before Saturday's game against Coastal Carolina.

Impact The wide receiver's status is in question due to an undisclosed injury for Week 5's matchup. The Georgia native has 28 receptions for 170 yards in four games.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Alex Taylor - Two TDs in loss Taylor gathered in six of seven targets for 119 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 42-28 loss to Houston.

Impact Taylor struck for a 40-yard score in the in the second quarter before connecting with Max Johnson for a 23-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Through four games, Taylor has recorded 10 receptions and 166 yards.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

River Helms - Hauls in TD in loss Helms totaled five receptions (on six targets) for 25 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 42-28 defeat against Houston.

SEPTEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Ashton Hollins - Out vs. Houston Hollins (shoulder) is out for Saturday's game against Houtson, per Zach Fox.

Impact Hollins was spotted wearing street clothes and will be unavailable against Penn State. A previous report mentioned that the wideout was scheduled for an MRI for his injured shoulder, though there's been no indication of an official timeline. He's been a reliable target this season, hauling in 14 receptions for 202 yards and three touchdowns in three games. He will aim to return against Coastal Carolina next Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Weston Bryan - Three rushing TDs at Jacksonville State Bryan logged six rushing attempts for 27 yards during Saturday's 31-27 defeat versus Jacksonville State.

Impact Interestingly, Bryan is one of college football's most valuable backup quarterbacks based on the scheme that Georgia Southern's team runs. Last season, when GSU's offense was close to the goal line, the team sporadically had Bryan run up for yardage, using his 6-foot-3 and 245-pound profile to plow through defenses for just a slight edge. It looks like the Eagles will be more reliant on Bryan this season, and if so, make him a sneaky quarterback to add to teams. This season, the quarterback has 11 carries for 39 yards and four touchdowns without a single pass to his name.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Ashton Hollins - MRI scheduled for shoulder Hollins is expected to have undergone an MRI for his injured shoulder, Zach Fox of WTOC reports.

Impact Back in Week 3, Hollins left Georgia Southern's game at Jacksonville State in the fourth quarter. The injury to his left shoulder explains why, and an MRI was scheduled for Monday. After beginning his 2026 season with 13 receptions for 203 yards and two touchdowns across as many games, Hollins will be one whose injury status is greatly worth monitoring as GSU's team prepares for Week 4 against Houston.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

David Mbadinga - Over 140 yards from scrimmage Mbadinga tallied 18 carries for 103 yards and reeled in all five targets for 40 yards during Saturday's 31-27 loss against Jacksonville State.

Impact Mbadinga didn't find the end zone in this Week 3 loss, but it wouldn't be a stretch to call him the team's most reliable offensive weapon -- especially given quarterback Max Johnson's struggles. The 18 carries, 103 rushing yards, five catches, five targets and 40 receiving yards were all season-high marks by a wide margin for Mbadinga. He should continue to see touches in the backfield after this impressive performance.

SEPTEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Max Johnson - Struggles in Week 3 loss Johnson was 23-for-33 passing for 187 yards and one interception during Saturday's 31-27 loss versus Jacksonville State. He also had seven rushes for 12 yards.

Impact Johnson didn't have his best performance in Week 3, posting a season-low mark in passing yards and recording his first game without a touchdown pass. While his completion percentage hovered around 70 percent, this was a disappointing performance from a fantasy perspective. Things won't get easier in Week 4 against Houston.

SEPTEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Terrance Gibbs - Misses another outing Gibbs (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's 31-27 loss to Jacksonville State.

Impact Gibbs has now missed back-to-back outings with an undisclosed injury. The 6-foot running back will now look to make a return for this Saturday's game against Houston.
