Reggie Bush has questionable fantasy value after missed practice
Reggie Bush did not practice on Wednesday and isn’t a sure thing for Week 6. We break down the fantasy implications.

Bush was forced out of Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills with an ankle injury. After the game, Bush said he felt fine and considers himself day-to-day, although his status is still uncertain for next week's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Bush was primed for a breakout week when Bell sat out with a concussion, but he disappointed, recording just 43 total yards on eight touches. Bush has 161 rushing yards, 142 receiving yards and one touchdown this season.
Fantasy impact: We likely won't know more about Bush's Week 6 status until later in the week, although at this point a questionable tag is the biggest possibility. Bell is still in the concussion protocol but is expected to return. He would be in line to start if Bush can't go, but fantasy owners should keep an eye on George Winn, who rushed 11 times for 48 yards last week. It's a murky situation that probably won't have any resolution until Sunday morning.
