Floyd dislocated three fingers in training camp, and after undergoing surgery, he’s been working his way back to prepare for the season opener. Over a month removed from the injury, head coach Bruce Arians seems optimistic about Floyd’s chances of playing. He’ll be a game-time decision.
Fantasy impact: Another player starting in a late game for Week 1, Floyd’s status won’t be revealed until the afternoon, potentially leaving some owners in a bind. The fact that Floyd has practiced for three straight days is a promising sign, but owners should still have alternative options.
John Brown is practically everyone's favorite breakout candidate for 2015, and Larry Fitzgerald is still Arizona's No. 1 wide receiver. Floyd is listed as a starter on the depth chart, but we'll see how things play out. If he misses Week 1, he's already leaving room for Brown to step up.
