Week 8 fantasy football PPR rankings: Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry rise

My Week 8 fantasy football PPR rankings put three Ravens atop their positions, with quarterback Lamar Jackson, running back Derrick Henry and wide receiver Zay Flowers leading the board for Baltimore’s trip to Buffalo. Jackson missed Week 7 with an ankle injury, but NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said he’s “likely to return next week against the Bills.” Buffalo has allowed 35.5 fantasy points per game to wide receivers and 25 to running backs, the most and fourth-most in the NFL. The Bills also rank 31st in expected points added per play allowed, per SumerSports, and only Dallas ranks lower. The full positional rankings tables are at the end of the article.

Lamar Jackson Injury Update, Latest Odds Point to Ravens Star Suiting Up vs. Bills in NFL Week 8

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson missed his third straight game in Week 7, though he did return to practice in a limited fashion prior to the team's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Ravens are now 4-3 and in last place in the AFC North after Cleveland (5-2), Pittsburgh (5-2) and Cincy (4-2) all won on Sunday. So, will Jackson be back for a massive Week 8 battle with the Buffalo Bills? The latest odds at DraftKings suggest that he will, as Baltimore is just a 3.5-point underdog on the road against Josh Allen and the 5-1 Bills. Buffalo has been one of the best teams in the NFL so far this season, and if Jackson were to sit, it's likely that they've be favored by around a touchdown or more against Tyler Huntley. Huntley has not played terribly in place of Jackson, but the Ravens are now 1-2 in his three starts this season. All-time, the Ravens have won just seven of the 20…

Barack Obama backs Maryland ballot measure that could reshape congressional map

The proposed amendment would remove a restriction that previously limited lawmakers from drawing a map that could favor Democrats in all eight House districts. Former President Barack Obama is urging Maryland voters to support a ballot measure that could give state Democrats greater freedom to redraw congressional districts ahead of the next election cycle In a campaign advertisement released Monday, October 26, Obama encouraged voters to approve a proposed state constitutional amendment.

The proposal places Maryland at the center of a broader national fight over congressional redistricting, a process that can significantly influence which party wins seats in Congress.…

Charlottesville area gains jobs as Virginia’s workforce shrinks, report shows

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (WVIR) - The Charlottesville-metro area posted the largest yearly payroll job gain among the 10 metro areas listed in Virginia’s latest employment report, even as the state recorded fewer jobs overall and a shrinking workforce. The September report from Virginia Works shows employers statewide added 7,800 payroll jobs compared with August. At the same time, a separate measure showed fewer Virginians working or actively looking for work. Those findings may appear contradictory, but they measure different things. Read the full September employment report from Virginia Works here. Virginia’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate held at 3.6% in September, unchanged from August but up from 3.4% a year earlier. The national rate was 4.2%. The unemployment rate does not include everyone without a job. To be counted as unemployed, someone must have actively looked for work…
