Panthers WR Jalen Coker's left foot was in a boot on Monday, according to ESPN's Mike Kaye. Coker told the media that he "rolled [his] ankle a little bit" in the first quarter of the Week 1 loss to the Bears. He called the boot precautionary and said he expects to play vs. the Falcons on Sunday.

We'll keep tabs on Coker's status this coming week. But if that injury came in the first quarter of the opener, he caught 7 balls for 112 yards and 2 TDs on it.
Coker has now averaged 16.0 PPR points per game over his last 8 outings dating back to last season. He should be owned in all fantasy leagues and is at least a weekly WR4 consideration in starting lineups, assuming this injury doesn't cost him time.
