| Dislocated ankle for Cam Skattebo Season likely over By: Mike Krueger | Oct 26 2025, 3:04 pm

|
Per the Giants: Cam Skattebo suffered a dislocated ankle and was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Giants rookie runner Cam Skattebo is likely out for the rest of the season after suffering a dislocated ankle in Week 8. Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary will likely handle the bulk of running back work for the Giants the remainder of the season with Tracy in a lead back role. The Giants have a bye in Week 14.

| Drake London Inactive for Week 8 Hip injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 26 2025, 11:29 am

|
Falcons WR Drake London is inactive today. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: London being a late scratch is going to cause a big ripple effect for the Falcons offense. Darnell Mooney, David Sills and Casey Washington are likely to be the top three receivers. We could see more targets for TE Kyle Pitts.
|
|
| Drake London listed as Questionable Hip injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 25 2025, 4:05 pm

|
#Falcons WR Drake London is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game with a hip injury. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: London showed up on the injury report Friday with a hip issue but had no designation on the final injury report. Now, he's all of the sudden listed as Questionable. We'll have to wait for more details on Sunday morning about his status. Luckily the Falcons, Dolphins game is an early kickoff.
|
|
| Christian Watson expected to play in Week 8 Activated off injured reserve By: Mike Krueger | Oct 25 2025, 3:13 pm

|
Packers WR Christian Watson was activated off injured reserve and is expected to make his season debut Sunday night at Pittsburgh. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Watson tore his ACL in January so he's a little more than 9 months removed from the injury. The Packers like to use a rotation at the position and it's unlikely Watson will see a full workload in his first game of the season. Dontayvion Wicks has been ruled Out with a calf injury and Matthew Golden is questionable with a hip issue.
|
|
| Tyrod Taylor Out for Week 8, Justin Fields to start Bone bruise on knee By: Mike Krueger | Oct 25 2025, 1:37 pm

|
Jets now officially downgraded QB Tyrod Taylor and WR Josh Reynolds to out. Neither player will travel to Cincinnati. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Taylor was limited all week in practice before being ruled Out on Saturday. Justin Fields has been down right dreadful the last two weeks but will get the start Sunday against the Bengals. His recent failures will make him hard to trust as anything more that a low-end QB2... even in a decent matchup against the Bengals.
|
|
| Lamar Jackson downgraded to Out for Week 8 Tyler Huntley will get the start By: Mike Krueger | Oct 25 2025, 12:21 pm

|
There has been an update to Lamar Jackson’s Friday practice and game status. Jackson was downgraded from a full practice participant to limited, and he has been ruled out for tomorrow’s game vs. Chicago. (Baltimore Ravens on X)
FFToday's Take: Thanks for the clarity Ravens. Lamar was "limited" all week and appears set to return in Week 9 against Miami on Thursday night. Tyler Huntley will get the start against the Bears on Sunday. Huntley does have some rushing ability but his highest ever QB finish was QB10 in Week 17 last season.
|
|
| Kirk Cousins "highly likely" to start in Week 8 Penix dealing with bone bruise By: Mike Krueger | Oct 25 2025, 8:47 am

|
ESPN Sources: Falcons QB Kirk Cousins is “highly likely” to start Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins as Michael Penix Jr. recovers from a bone bruise to his knee.
Penix was limited at practice all week and Cousins worked with the first-team offense, gearing up to start Sunday. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Penix was limited in practice all week and remains Questionable on the injury report. The Dolphins represent a positive matchup for Quarterbacks so Cousins is in play as a QB2 option without the rushing floor. The Falcons should have a run-heavy gameplan against the Dolphins who have given up the most rushing yards to RBs in the league.
|
|
| A.J. Brown Out for Week 8, hamstring injury Missed practice all week By: Mike Krueger | Oct 24 2025, 3:53 pm

|
WR A.J. Brown’s hamstring remained tight from scar tissue as the week progressed, an NFL source said. That’s why he didn’t practice all three days and has been declared out for Sunday’s game vs. the Giants. (Jeff McLane on X)
FFToday's Take: Brown has dealt with hamstring issues in the past and sat out a good portion of training camp with the same ailment. In his absence, DeVonta Smith should operate as the top wideout target with an elevated role for Jahan Dotson. Dotson has played 59% of the Eagles snaps this season with just a 6.4% target share.
|
|
| Full practice on Friday for Lamar Jackson, Questionable Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 24 2025, 3:15 pm

|
Lamar Jackson is questionable after being a full participant in practice on Friday. Elsewhere, the #Ravens are finally looking healthy after the bye. (Mike Garafolo on X)
FFToday's Take: Lamar was limited on Wednesday and Thursday but got in a full practice on Friday. More than likely, he's going to play this week against the Bears, but we need to wait for official word from the team.
|
|
| Aaron Jones expected to play in Week 8 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 23 2025, 1:29 pm

|
Vikings RB Aaron Jones, who has missed the last four games due to a hamstring injury, is expected to return tonight to play against the Chargers, @KirkHerbstreit told @PatMcAfeeShow. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Jones last played in Week 2 when he suffered a hamstring injury. How much he plays Thursday night against the Chargers remains to be seen. He was limited in practice this week and listed as Questionable on the injury report. With no guarantee that he'll see a typical role, he's best treated as a Flex option in Week 8.
|
|
| Jayden Daniels will sit in Week 8, Mariota to start Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 22 2025, 12:43 pm

|
Jayden Daniels is out for this week with a low-grade hamstring strain, per source. Not a long-term injury but Commanders don't want to risk it. (Jeremy Fowler on X)
FFToday's Take: Daniels left early in Week 7 with a hamstring injury and will now miss Monday night's game in Week 8 against the Chiefs. Being ruled out this early is typically is cause for alarm and doesn't bode well for his chances to play in Week 9. The Commanders bye is in Week 12. Marcus Mariota will have some plug and play appeal given his rushing ability, but is probably capped at a low-end QB1 in this matchup with the Chiefs.
|
|
| TE Darren Waller lands on IR Pec injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 22 2025, 12:28 pm

|
Dolphins placed TE Darren Waller on the injured reserve list and signed TE Greg Dulcich to their active roster off their practice squad. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Waller has been productive when's been on the field, scoring 4 TDs. Problem is, he's only been on the field for three games. Julian Hill played the most snaps (60.3%) of any Dolphins tight end last week but isn't going to be a fantasy recommendation this week against the Falcons.
|
|
| Mike Evans out with broken collarbone, concussion Lost season for veteran receiver By: Mike Krueger | Oct 20 2025, 9:53 pm

|
Mike Evans suffered a broken collarbone during Monday night's 24-9 loss to the Detroit Lions, an injury that will sideline him for most of the remaining season, according to coach Todd Bowles. Evans, who also sustained a concussion, was carted to the locker room in the second quarter. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: Evans had just returned from a hamstring injury that cost him three games. Now, he'll likely miss a big chuck of the remaining regular season. The Bucs are thin at the wideout position with Chris Godwin (ankle) still out. They'll move forward with Emeka Egbuka, Tez Johnson and Sterling Shepard as their top three wideouts.
|
|
| Brock Purdy unlikely to play in Week 8 QB still recovering from turf toe By: Doug Orth | Oct 20 2025, 6:10 pm

|
QB Brock Purdy likely "a reach" to return this week at Houston, “will continue like he did last week,” said Shanahan, noting Houston turf not a factor (Bay Area News Group - Cam Inman)
FFToday's Take: Purdy was limited in practice all week in Week 7 and didn't play, so we can probably assume he will continue on that path this week before getting ruled out on Friday. The 49ers are doing fine without him, as Mac Jones has been a steadying force under center even if he is not producing many touchdowns. Jones can probably be ignore in most one-quarterback leagues in Week 8, however, as the 49ers face the Texans.
|
|
| Emeka Egbuka, Mike Evans good to go for Monday night Rookie WR playing despite suffering hamstring injury in Week 6 By: Doug Orth | Oct 20 2025, 6:00 pm

|
Emeka Egbuka will play tonight after testing his hamstring pregame. Both Mike Evans and Egbuka expected to play against a best up Lions secondary. (Tampa Bay Times - Rick Stroud)
FFToday's Take: Fantasy managers are on their own in this one, as there is no way to know if Egbuka will handle his normal allotment of snaps or will serve as a decoy. With that said, he is unlikely to be used just as a decoy. Managers who took the chance on Egbuka playing this weekend are unlikely to have many choices with more upside anyway. If the rookie is a full-go, he faces a Detroit secondary that is more beat up than his receiver counterparts. Don't be surprised if he returns WR2 production or better. The same could be said for Evans.
|
|
| Bryce Young suffers sprained ankle in Week 7 Expected to miss Week 8 By: Mike Krueger | Oct 20 2025, 11:45 am

|
#Panthers QB Bryce Young suffered a high ankle sprain on Sunday, an MRI revealed, and he is expected to miss this week’s game against the #Bills, per sources. Andy Dalton is now in line to start against Buffalo, and quite possibly beyond. The exact timetable for Bryce Young is TBD. This type of high ankle sprain is generally a 2-4 week injury, though Carolina is hopeful he could miss as little as one game. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Carolina's bye doesn't come until Week 14 so we're likely to see Dalton at quarterback for the next couple games (BUF, @GB). Young is currently the QB28 and doesn't hold much fantasy value outside of 2-QB or Superflex leagues. We might actually get some better passing performances out of the Panthers with Dalton under center.
|
|
| Josh Jacobs a gametime decision for Week 7 Illness and calf injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 18 2025, 9:17 pm

|
Packers RB Josh Jacobs, listed as questionable for Sunday due to illness and a calf injury, is now being considered a “true game-time decision” for Sunday’s matchup vs. the Cardinals, per source. The team says it does not expect to know whether he can play until Sunday. If Jacobs is unable to play, Packers RB Emanuel Wilson would be the expected starter. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Jacobs dealt with his illness during last week's game then added a calf issue to his ailments. The team did call up RB Pierre Strong Jr. from the practice squad but it sounds like Jacobs is pushing to play. If he sits, Wilson would be in the RB2 conversation in a matchup against the Cardinals.
|
|
| Deebo Samuel downgraded to Out for Week 7 Heel injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 18 2025, 2:30 pm

|
#Commanders WR Deebo Samuel won’t travel to Dallas and has been ruled out for Sunday’s game vs. the #Cowboys.
In a big division game, Washington will be without its top three receivers: Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown and now Samuel. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: The Commanders are now down their top three wideouts. It's looking like Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey and Chris Moore will be the wideout options for Jayden Daniels against the Cowboys. TE Zach Ertz is listed as Questionable with a shoulder injury.
|
|
| Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka gametime decisions for Monday Evans expected to play By: Mike Krueger | Oct 18 2025, 12:35 pm

|
And Mike Evans, who practiced today, also is considered a pre-game decision, though it sounds like there is more hope for him than Emeka Egbuka.
Even if Egbuka doesn’t play Monday night, he is expected to have a chance to play next week at New Orleans before the Buccaneers’ bye. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: It sounds like Evans is going to play barring some setback, but don't be surprised if Egbuka is on the Inactive list Monday night. Both are dealing with hamstring injuries. Bucky Irving (foot) and Chris Godwin (ankle) have both been ruled Out. Tampa Bay has a bye in Week 9.
|
|
| Terry McLaurin Out, Deebo Samuel Questionable for Week 7 TE Zach Ertz listed as Questionable By: Mike Krueger | Oct 17 2025, 4:03 pm

|
Along with Terry McLaurin ruled our for Sunday, Deebo Samuel, Sam Cosmi, Dorance Armstrong, Jonathan Jones and... Zach Ertz all listed as "questionable." (Ben Standig on X)
FFToday's Take: McLaurin (quad) got in a limited practice on Wednesday but then sat out Thursday and Friday which doesn't bode well for his Week 8 status. Deebo (heel) only got in a limited practice on Friday and appears to be a gametime decision. The Commanders are thin at WR and may be relying more on Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane than they'd like to.
|
|
| Carson Wentz gets another start for the Vikings J.J. McCarthy still recovering from ankle injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 17 2025, 3:15 pm

|
With J.J. McCarthy still recovering from his high ankle sprain, the Vikings once again will start QB Carson Wentz, who spent the first five seasons of his NFL career with Philadelphia. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: McCarthy injured his ankle in Week 2 and will remain out as the Vikings head into Week 7 to face the Eagles. Wentz (shoulder) has finished as the QB15, QB8 and QB24 in his three starts. The Eagles are a middling matchup against QBs making Wentz check in as a mid-range QB2 for Week 7.
|
|
| Purdy & Pearsall Out for 49ers, Mac Jones to start George Kittle expected to play By: Mike Krueger | Oct 17 2025, 3:00 pm

|
49ers ruled out QB Brock Purdy (toe) and WR Ricky Pearsall (knee) for Sunday night’s game against the Falcons.
49ers QB Mac Jones starts again. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Jauan Jennings is off the injury report which is curious considering he's dealing ankle, shoulder and rib injuries. George Kittle (hamstring) is set to be activated off injured reserve on Saturday and will play as well. Mac Jones is averaging 313 yards in his four games this season. He'll have a difficult matchup against the Falcons who've given up the 5th fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks.
|
|
| David Njoku ruled Out for Week 7 Knee injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 17 2025, 1:15 pm

|
Browns TE David Njoku is out for Sunday’s game vs. Miami due to his knee injury. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Njoku missed practice all week so it's not a surprise that he's been ruled out for Week 7. Harold Fannin Jr. should see an elevated role in the offense considering the lack of playmakers at the the wideout position. There are weather concerns for this game and QB Dillon Gabriel is learning on the job.
|
|
| CeeDee Lamb expected to play in Week 7 Could've played last week By: Mike Krueger | Oct 16 2025, 4:37 pm

|
CeeDee Lamb said he could’ve played against the Panthers last week but they wanted to give him extra time to get all the way healthy. “I’m out there moving around, running around, being me. Happy as can be.” Dak Prescott: “He looks great. He’s ready to go. It’s going to be fun.” (Jon Machota on X)
FFToday's Take: Dallas will get their number on receiver back when they face the Commanders in the highest total game of the week (54.5). Lamb (ankle) and fellow wideout KaVontae Turpin (foot) have both been limited in the first two practices of the week but both should play.
|
|
| Mike Evans expected to practice on Thursday Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 16 2025, 9:21 am

|
Mike Evans is expected to return to practice today for the Bucs. (Rick Stroud on X)
FFToday's Take: This will be Tampa Bay's first practice this week as they play Monday night against the Lions. Evans injured his hamstring in Week 3 and hasn't played since. The fact that he wasn't put on IR suggests that he's on track to play but we'll see how practice goes this week. The Bucs are banged up at the receiver position with Chris Godwin (ankle) and Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) likely out.
|
|
| DJ Moore doing OK after hospital visit Considered day-to-day with a groin injury By: Doug Orth | Oct 14 2025, 5:05 pm

|
After staying overnight at a DC hospital to receive treatment for a groin injury, Bears WR D.J. Moore is back in Chicago. He will be considered day-to-day, according to HC Ben Johnson. (ChicagoBears.com - Larry Mayer)
FFToday's Take: Considering how bad it sounded initially when the news broke late last night, this should be considered a fortunate outcome for Moore. Fantasy managers will likely have to wait a few days before Moore's Week 7 status is revealed, but at least a one-game absence seems likely. In that case, managers would be justified in firing up Luther Burden in the leagues where they have stashed him. Rome Odunze would be an even stronger play than he usually is as well.
|
|
| Buffalo bruised and battered heading into Week 7 bye Kincaid day-to-day, Josh Palmer week-to-week By: Doug Orth | Oct 14 2025, 5:00 pm

|
WR Josh Palmer is also "week-to-week" with an ankle injury. LB Matt Milano, WR Curtis Samuel and TE Dalton Kincaid is "day-to-day." (The Athletic - Joe Buscaglia)
FFToday's Take: Kincaid was a late scratch before the team's Week 6 loss in Atlanta, while Palmer was injured after getting off to a hot start. For fantasy purposes, Kincaid is the one who matters, as he was the overall TE2 through five weeks. Oblique injuries can be tricky, but it seems reasonable to believe Kincaid will be able to heal enough during the bye week to be in line to return in Week 8 against the Panthers.
|
|
| HC declines to name Rico Dowdle the starter Chuba Hubbard likely close to return from calf injury By: Doug Orth | Oct 13 2025, 11:30 pm

|
Has Rico Dowdle earned the right to be the #Panthers starting RB? Dave Canales: ‘’We’ll see.’’ (ESPN.com - David Newton)
FFToday's Take: Canales has little to gain by naming either running back (Chuba Hubbard or Dowdle) the starter six days ahead of the team's next game. More likely than not, Dowdle will get the nod in Week 7 against the Jets regardless of how healthy Hubbard is as the team likely tries to ease Hubbard back into the mix. If Dowdle can somehow eclipse 200 total yards of offense for the third straight game, Canales would likely be compelled to keep riding him. However, it is more likely this becomes a committee again at some point in the near future.

|
| Brock Bowers likely to sit until Week 9 Raiders go on bye week after Week 7 tilt at Kansas City By: Doug Orth | Oct 13 2025, 11:20 pm

|
The Raiders have played without tight end Brock Bowers the last two weeks and his status for Week 7’s trip to Kansas City was a topic at head coach Pete Carroll’s Monday press conference.
Bowers is dealing with a knee injury that he suffered in Week 1 and played through for several weeks before sitting out in Week 5. On Monday, Carroll said he’s hopeful that Bowers is well enough to play against the Chiefs before adding that the team has to consider if the best long-term approach is to wait to bring him back until after their Week 8 bye. (Pro Football Talk - Josh Alper)
FFToday's Take: The Raiders would be lying to themselves if they believed they are ready to compete with the rest of the AFC West right now, so it appears they are making the right call in using the bye week to give Bowers enough time to get all the way back. Michael Mayer played well in Bowers' absence in Week 6 (5-50-1 on seven targets) and should be expected to play a big role again versus the Chiefs in Week 7. Consider him a solid low-end TE1 option for that contest.
|
|
| Garrett Wilson expected to miss a game or two Suffered hyperextended knee in Week 6 By: Doug Orth | Oct 13 2025, 11:00 pm

|
An MRI today revealed that Jets WR Garrett Wilson hyperextends his knee and he now is expected to miss, as one source said, “a couple of weeks.” (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: The Jets entered this season with arguably the worst receiving corps in the league. Without Wilson, there is no question about it. Josh Reynolds, Tyler Johnson and Allen Lazard, assuming the personal reason that kept him from playing Week 6 has been dealt with, will likely be Justin Fields' top three wideouts in Week 7 against the Panthers and Week 8 versus the Bengals heading into the team's Week 9 bye. Fantasy managers should expect a heavy reliance on Breece Hall and Mason Taylor over that stretch.
|
|
| Puka Nacua may sit Week 7 with sprained ankle Rams have a bye in Week 8 By: Mike Krueger | Oct 13 2025, 10:11 am

|
#Rams WR Puka Nacua, the NFL’s leader in catches, suffered an ankle sprain that will likely cause him to miss time, per me and
@MikeGarafolo. It would make sense for Nacua to be out next week against the #Jaguars, then LAR has a bye to regroup and assess. (Ian Rapoport on X)
FFToday's Take: Fantasy's top wideout suffered a sprained ankle yesterday during the Rams matchup with the Ravens. With the Rams having a bye in Week 8, it would make sense to hold him out in Week 7 against Jacksonville. Tutu Atwell was inactive in Week 6 with a hamstring injury. Jordan Whittington (3-23-0) played 92.5% of the snaps against Baltimore.
|
|
| Bam Knight to play ahead of Michael Carter in Week 6 Arizona making changes on offense By: Mike Krueger | Oct 12 2025, 10:31 am

|
Today’s headlines, including some changes in Arizona: Zonovan Knight will move into a more prominent role ahead of Michael Carter. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: We already knew that Brissett would be starting at quarterback, now it seems the Cardinals are making a change at running back. Carter led the Arizona backfield in snaps and touches (23) last week while Knight had just 5. This will likely be a committee approach regardless of Knight starting and the matchup against the Colts isn't great. Knight can treated like a low-end Flex option in Week 6.
|
|
| Quentin Johnston trending towards sitting in Week 6 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 11 2025, 10:33 pm

|
Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (questionable, hamstring) is trending toward missing Sunday’s game vs. Dolphins, per source.
Barring late change, L.A. expected to be without another playmaker. (Jeremy Fowler on X)
FFToday's Take: Johnston got in a limited sessions all week in practice and is currently listed as Questionable, but it appears he's going to miss Week 6. Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey will likely be the top two targets for Justin Herbert. Tre Harris has played 17% of the snaps this season but could see an increased role in this game.
|
|
| Jacoby Brissett expected to start for ARI in Week 6 Kyler Murray likely to sit with foot injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 11 2025, 9:22 pm

|
Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett is expected to start Sunday in place of Kyler Murray, who is dealing with a foot injury, per me and
@JFowlerESPN. Brissett will make his first start for the Cardinals against the Colts, a team he played for from 2017-2020. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Murray is reportedly dealing with a mid-foot sprain that kept out of practice Wednesday and Thursday. He got in a limited session on Friday. Arizona ranks 31st in passing yards per game, just ahead of Tennessee, and Kyler Murray is currently the QB24 in fantasy points per game. Brissett has some low-end QB2 appeal in a matchup with the Colts.
|
|
| Darnell Mooney ruled Out for Week 6 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 11 2025, 2:07 pm

|
The #Falcons ruled out WR Darnell Mooney (hamstring) for Monday night's game against the #Bills. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Mooney missed practice all week which isn't a great sign for his availability in Week 7. Drake London has seen out-sized target shares when Mooney has missed, so expect that to be the case Monday night against the Bills.
|
|
| Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall Out for Week 6 Mac Jones questionable with knee injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 10 2025, 5:10 pm

|
49ers ruled out QB Brock Purdy and WR Ricky Pearsall for Sunday’s game at Tampa Bay.
49ers QB Mac Jones starts again. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Jones has started three games already for San Francisco, finishing as the QB7, QB13 and QB10. The Bucs are a good matchup, allowing the 7th most fantasy points to QBs. Ricky Pearsall has been ruled out, but Jauan Jennings (ankle, rib) is expected to return, after getting in two limited practices this week. Jennings and Kendrick Bourne should be the top two targets for San Francisco this week.
|
|
| Chris Godwin ruled Out for Week 6 Fibula injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 10 2025, 2:27 pm

|
Buccaneers ruled out WRs Chris Godwin and Mike Evans along with RB Bucky Irving for Sunday’s game vs. the 49ers. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Godwin missed practice this week with a fibula injury, something unrelated to his ankle injury suffered last season. HC Todd Bowles said Godwin is "week-to-week" which doesn't sound good for his chances at playing in Week 7. The Bucs have a bye in Week 9. With Godwin out, the top three receivers should be Emeka Egbuka, Sterling Shepard and rookie Tez Johnson. This would also be a situation where TE Cade Otton could see increased targets.
|
|
| Brock Purdy misses practice Thursday Toe injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 9 2025, 4:06 pm

|
49ers QB Brock Purdy also not practicing today due to his toe injury, putting Mac Jones on track to start Sunday at Tampa. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Purdy missed Week against the Jaguars and appears to be headed for the same fate in Week 6. In his absence, Mac Jones will get the call who's been battling a knee issue much of the season. That didn't stop him from posting a 342-2-0 line against the Rams however. He'll be a middling QB2 option with no rushing upside this week against the Bucs. Jauan Jennings (ribs, ankle) was able to return to practice Thursday but Ricky Pearsall missed and is unlikely to play this week.
|
|
| Kyler Murray misses practice Thursday Foot injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 9 2025, 1:38 pm

|
No Kyler Murray at practice again today for #AZCardinals. Friday will be a huge day for QB decision.
He’s not doing anything but watching yet, but Walter Nolen III is with his teammates. (Darren Urban on X)
FFToday's Take: Murray injured his foot in last week's game but was able to finish after a short stay on the sidelines. Two missed practices to start the week isn't ideal for his chances to play on Sunday. Jacoby Brissett would get the call if Murray isn't able to suit up for Week 6.
|
|
| Darius Slayton set to miss Week 6 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Oct 8 2025, 9:06 am

|
No Darius Slayton vs. Eagles. He was limping badly around the locker room yesterday. Turnaround too quick for any real chance.
Expect Lil'Jordan Humphrey to get called up and play a role Thursday night. (Jordan Raanan on X)
FFToday's Take: Slayton left the Giants Week 5 game against the Saints with a hamstring injury and will now miss Week 6 against the Eagles. The Giants are depleted at the wide receiver position which affects the fantasy prospects of quarterback Jaxson Dart. Even if Humphrey jumps into the starting lineup he won't be a recommended fantasy play.
