Jets RB Tevin Coleman (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Bills. He’s not a fantasy option but could steal a few carries from RB Michael Carter.
Bills RB Zack Moss (concussion) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. He figures to continue splitting backfield work with Devin Singletary, leaving both guys as just RB3 or flex plays.
NFL Network's James Palmer says "don't be surprised" if Titans RB D'Onta Foreman gains carries vs. the Saints "over Adrian Peterson." We thought Foreman looked better than Peterson in the season debut for each veteran back last week against the Rams. Of course, Tennessee faces the league's #1 defense in rushing DVOA, according to Football Outsiders. So neither RB is an exciting option for Week 10. Foreman looks like he carries more upside than Peterson.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (concussion) is expected to play vs. the Browns today. The rookie missed all 3 practices this week, which might impact his role in the game plan today. But we'd still consider him the favorite to lead New England in carries. RB Brandon Bolden might still take on a bigger ball-carrying role and should handle most of the pass-catching work.
Rams OLB Von Miller is officially questionable for Monday night's game against the 49ers. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that they won't play Miller "unless the team believes his ankle injury is close to fully healed." He adds that the injury was worse than the Rams realized when they made the trade. A Week 11 bye could factor into the decision on whether to play him. At the least, the Monday night kickoff makes it difficult to wait on Miller for IDP rosters. Rams CB Darious Williams is also questionable after popping up on the injury report Friday with an ankle issue that kept him out of Saturday's practice. He's not worth waiting on.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (concussion) has a "real shot" to play vs. the Browns today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It sounds like Stevenson will try to get medical clearance this morning. We'll get New England's inactives around 11:30 am ET. With RB Damien Harris (concussion) out, an active Stevenson would be the favorite to lead the Patriots in carries today.
The Panthers are not expecting to get QB Sam Darnold (shoulder) back this season, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. HC Matt Rhule said earlier this week that Darnold could be back in 4-6 weeks, but it sounds like that was optimistic. QB Cam Newton is expected to start Week 11 and will likely be under center the rest of the season.
Washington QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) is "highly unlikely" to play again this season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The 38-year-old is still dealing with swelling and pain in the hip and groin area, per Rapoport. QB Taylor Heinicke will remain Washington's starter for now. We'll see if the team wants to get a look at QB Kyle Allen.
Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is "unlikely" to play vs. the Panthers today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. We got a similar report from ESPN's Adam Schefter on Saturday night, so it's safe to assume that Hopkins will be inactive later today. WR Rondale Moore (neck, concussion) is expected to play, per Rapoport. Moore will join A.J. Green and Christian Kirk as Arizona's top 3 WRs.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport calls Jaguars RB James Robinson (heel) a "true game-time decision" for today's meeting with the Colts. "Playing likely won’t make it worse, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll go," Rapoport adds. We'll get Jacksonville's inactives around 11:30 am ET. Robinson will come with elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he's active. If not, Carlos Hyde will get another game as lead back.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Chargers WR Keenan Allen (knee) is expected to play vs. the Vikings today. Allen got in 2 limited practices this week and is listed as questionable, but we never sensed any concern about his status. He's safe to get into Week 10 fantasy lineups.
Bucs WR Chris Godwin (foot) is expected to play vs. Washington today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That matches The Athletic's Greg Auman's report from Saturday. The question remains how big an issue that foot will be. Godwin got in just 1 limited practice this week despite having the bye week to heal up.
It "sounds like" Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) will miss Sunday's game vs. the Panthers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Hopkins is less likely to play than WR Rondale Moore and QB Kyler Murray, who are also listed as questionable, per Schefter. We'll look for further updates on Hopkins, but he shouldn't be in fantasy lineups at this point.
The Cardinals are "pessimistic" that QB Kyler Murray (ankle) will be able to play vs. the Panthers on Sunday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Murray wants to take it up to game-time and AZ will give him a chance. But it’s likely that Colt McCoy starts," Rapoport adds. We'll look for further updates on the situation Sunday morning, but fantasy owners can't be counting on Murray at this point.
The Steelers are placing QB Ben Roethlisberger on the COVID list, which means he'll miss Sunday's game against the Lions. The timing could put his Week 11 in doubt as well, depending on the specifics of his situation. Mason Rudolph will start against Detroit. He's clearly not much of a fantasy option overall, but Rudolph did throw for 315 yards and 2 TDs in a narrow loss to the Browns in Week 17 last year -- his most recent start.
49ers RB JaMycal Hasty (ankle) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Rams. Hasty leads 49ers RBs with 18 targets this season, so his absence opens up some work in the passing game. It's a small boost to RB Elijah Mitchell's Week 10 outlook. RBs Jeff Wilson and Trey Sermon also figure to be active for San Francisco on Monday night but aren't fantasy options.
The Bucs expect to have WR Chris Godwin (foot) for Sunday's game against Washington, according to The Athletic's Greg Auman. Godwin only got in a limited practice on Friday after hurting his foot in Tampa's last game, prior to the Week 9 bye. We'll look for additional updates on his status tomorrow morning. There's still a chance that he's limited and/or suffers an in-game setback. The matchup is sweet, though, vs. the 32nd-ranked WR defense.
The Titans have placed WR Julio Jones on IR for the hamstring he injured in Friday's practice. That knocks him out for at least the next 3 games, starting with Sunday's matchup with New Orleans. His absence can only help the target outlook for A.J. Brown, who was already dominating on that ront. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Chester Rogers were the next 2 WRs in playing time last week against the Rams, with nearly identical snap totals. Marcus Johnson trailed behind them. We also might see more work for a TE group with Geoff Swaim and Anthony Firkser at the front. The hamstring has been a nagging issue for Jones through most of the season. We'll see if this IR stint can shake it and make him a factor by fantasy playoff time.
The Buccaneers have elevated WR Breshad Perriman and TE Darren Fells from the practice squad for Sunday's game against Washington. Neither figures to be much of a fantasy factor. The Perriman move might be a bad sign for Chris Godwin's chances of playing, though. Fells' addition crowds a TE situation that leaves no clear answer for fantasy lineups.
The Packers have activated QB Aaron Rodgers from the COVID list, making him officially available for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Green Bay also added Rodgers to the injury report with a toe issue, but he carries no game status. Rodgers might have tripped over 1 of the photographers chasing anyone who looks remotely like him (with a mask on) in public over the past week.
