Jacoby Brissett gets the start for Arizona
Kyler Murray not ready to go
By: Mike Krueger | Nov 1 2025, 1:17 pm
|
Kyler Murray is not yet healthy enough to start for the #AZCardinals, so Jacoby Brissett will be QB1 against the Cowboys on MNF. (Darren Urban on X)
FFToday's Take: Murray has been dealing with a foot issue and was limited in practice this week. Jonathan Gannon stated Murray could have a role in the game, which likely means that if Brissett got injured, Murray would come in as the QB2. Brissett gets a prime matchup against the woeful Dallas defense that's given up the most fantasy points to the quarterback position.

D'Andre Swift ruled Out for Week 9, groin injury
Kyle Monangai expected to start
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 31 2025, 2:51 pm
|
D'Andre Swift (groin) has been ruled OUT vs. Cincinnati. It'll be rookie Kyle Monangai's first game as Chicago's lead back.
OUT: Luther Burden III, Roschon Johnson, Dominique Robinson
QUESTIONABLE: Amen Ogbongbemiga (Courtney Cronin on X)
FFToday's Take: Swift missed practice all week so it will be Monangai in a lead back role against the Bengals who represent the best matchup for running backs. The rookie has RB1 upside. Expect Brittain Brown to be elevated from the practice squad.

Rhamondre Stevenson Out for Week 9, toe injury
Opportunity for TreVeyon Henderson?
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 31 2025, 1:16 pm
|
Patriots starting RB Rhamondre Stevenson will miss Sunday’s game against the Falcons due to a toe injury.
Sets up a big opportunity for TreVeyon Henderson. (Chad Graff on X)
FFToday's Take: No word yet on how long Rhamondre's toe injury will keep him out of action. The team did D’Ernest Johnson this week. Expect TreVeyon Henderson and Terrell Jennings the handle the bulk of running back duties for the Patriots against the Falcons. How much work these backs get is going to up for debate as Henderson has yet to be trusted with any kind of meaningful workload. His season-high in touches (14) came back in Week 3 against the Steelers.

Travis Hunter lands on IR with knee injury
Injury suffered in practice Thursday
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 31 2025, 10:48 am
|
The #Jaguars are placing WR/CB Travis Hunter on injured reserve because of a knee injury suffered in practice Thursday, coach Liam Coen said. He's out at least four games. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Ugh. We had indications that Hunter's workload was about to expand for the remainder of the season but that is now put on hold. Hunter will be eligible to return in Week 13. We should see target increases for Dyami Brown and Parker Washington while Hunter is on the sidelines.

Rome Odunze, D.J. Moore limited, D'Andre Swift DNP on Thu
Swift dealing with groin issue
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 30 2025, 3:16 pm
|
Bears Thursday injury report
DJ Moore (hip/groin), Rome Odunze (heel), Olamide Zaccheaus (knee) were all upgraded to LIMITED. Luther Burden III (concussion) was DNP for a 2nd straight day.
Tyrique Stevenson (shoulder) was FULL. Good sign for him rejoining the Bears secondary vs. Bengals. Cole Kmet had a 2nd straight day of being limited.
Still no D'Andre Swift (groin), Roschon Johnson (back), Dominique Robinson (ankle). (Courtney Cronin on X)
FFToday's Take: Swift has been dealing with a groin issue for a few weeks now but has typically been limited in practices during the week. The fact that he's missed practice both Wednesday and Thursday is noteworthy. Kyle Monangai would get a huge boost up the fantasy ranks if Swift were to miss this week.

Terry McLaurin ruled Out for Week 9
Quad injury
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 29 2025, 3:21 pm
|
Commanders WR Terry McLaurin re-injured his quad and has already been ruled OUT for Sunday per DQ (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: McLaurin suffered a setback with his quad injury in Week 8 against the Chiefs and now will miss at least Week 9 against the Seahawks. The fact that he's been ruled out this early isn't a great sign for a quick return. In McLaurin's absence we've seen an elevated role for Chris Moore, Jaylin Lane and Luke McCaffrey. Moore is likely to see the most snaps of the trio but will be a risky flex option. The Commanders have a bye in Week 12.

Jayden Daniels likely to return to practice
QB missed Week 8 loss to Kansas City with hamstring issue
By: Doug Orth | Oct 28 2025, 5:00 pm
|
Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels had a good rehab session on Sunday and he's expected to practice tomorrow. (The Athletic -Nicki Jhabvala)
FFToday's Take: While Daniels' likely return bodes well for the Commanders, fantasy managers may need to temper expectations in Week 9. Not only is it likely that Daniels will be somewhat limited as a runner, but he is also set to square off against the Seattle defense that has yielded more than 20 points in a game once all season.

Isiah Pacheco week-to-week with sprained MCL
Unlikely to play in Week 9
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 28 2025, 1:28 pm
|
#Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco, who left Monday night’s win with a knee injury, is considered week-to-week with an MCL sprain, per sources. (Tom Pelissero on X)
FFToday's Take: Pacheco was injured late in the 4th quarter against the Commanders and is unlikely to play in Week 9 as the Chiefs have a bye in Week 10. Depending on the severity of the injury, it's possible Pacheco could be ready to go in Week 11. Kareem Hunt and Isiah Pacheco should get a bump in value in Week 9 against the Bills but expect Elijah Mitchell to be active.

Saints make a change at QB, Tyler Shough to start
Spencer Rattler to the bench
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 28 2025, 12:15 pm
|
Sources: The future is now in New Orleans, with the #Saints making rookie QB Tyler Shough their starter.
Spencer Rattler now heads to the bench, while the second-rounder moves to the forefront in a decision coach Kellen Moore informed them of today. (Ian Rapoport on X)
FFToday's Take: Rattler got benched in Week 8 and will take a seat in Week 9 as the Saints face the Rams. Shough posted a 128-0-1, 3-12-0 line against the Buccaneers last week. He won't be on the fantasy radar and is likely to struggle against the Rams, making the Rams defense a top tier play this week.

Big second half ahead for Travis Hunter?
Rookie appears set to handle WR1 duties in Jacksonville
By: Doug Orth | Oct 27 2025, 7:00 pm
|
It looks like Travis Hunter is going to be a significant player in the offense going forward. That's what HC Liam Coen said heading into last Sunday's game against the Rams, and then Hunter led the Jaguars in targets (14), catches (eight) and receiving yards (101) while playing a season-high 64 snaps. He now leads the team in receptions (28) and is second in receiving yards (298).
So don't be surprised if Hunter starts getting the WR1 treatment from the Jaguars in the season's second half, and that's partly due to his playmaking and run-after-the-catch ability, but also because Brian Thomas Jr. hasn't played at that level all season. (ESPN.com - Michael DiRocco)
FFToday's Take: As Michael DiRocco notes, Coen suggested Hunter would play a big role in the team's loss to the Rams in London and he did. Especially with Thomas struggling in his second season and the running game not hitting on big plays as it was in September, it would almost be shocking if Hunter does not push for at least seven or eight targets every week moving forward. With that kind of volume and his talent, he becomes a very good WR3 option in fantasy with WR2 upside.

Carson Wentz done for the year
Set to undergo left shoulder surgery
By: Doug Orth | Oct 27 2025, 6:50 pm
|
Vikings QB Carson Wentz is undergoing season-ending surgery on his left shoulder. He will be placed on IR.
Wentz played multiple games with the injury. J.J. McCarthy is in line to start for Minnesota in Week 9 against Detroit. (The Athletic - Dianna Russini)
FFToday's Take: It is unclear if this is a good thing or not for the Vikings' pass-catchers, most notably Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. McCarthy played only about one quarter of good football through two games, although this is essentially his rookie season after he missed all of last year. He won't catch mmuch of a break from the opponent, as the Lions rank inside the top five in sacks (23) despite having only played seven games.

Lamar Jackson expected back in Week 9
QB has been sidelined since injuring hamstring in Week 4
By: Doug Orth | Oct 27 2025, 6:40 pm
|
Ravens HC John Harbaugh said he expects Lamar Jackson, who has missed the past three games due to a hamstring injury, to play Thursday night at Miami. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: The bigger immediate question will be how much the Ravens will get punished for their injury report "deceit" of Jackson's practice status late last week. It goes without saying that every offensive player in Baltimore is better when Jackson is playing, and it should be noted that the two-time MVP was the leading scorer in fantasy through three full games. Assuming he is cleared before Thursday, he should be started in all leagues.

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.
