Jaguars HC Urban Meyer said after Sunday's loss to Seattle that RB James Robinson is dealing with a bruised heel. The injury was originally announced as an ankle. Meyer didn't have any other details on Robinson's status, but we should learn more tomorrow.
Cowboys QB Dak Prescott (calf) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Vikings. He was seemingly close to playing, but Dallas is playing it safe here. We’re expecting Prescott back next week. QB Cooper Rush makes his 1st career start tonight -- a clear downgrade for Cowboys pass catchers.
Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski was ruled out at halftime of Sunday's game vs. the Saints with back spasms. This is seemingly unrelated to the rib injury that had Gronk sidelined the previous 5 weeks. He'll get a Week 9 bye to hopefully get healthy.
Colts WR T.Y. Hilton exited in the 4th quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Titans to get checked for a concussion. His status hasn't been updated since. We should learn more tomorrow.
Saints QB Jameis Winston appeared to suffer a leg injury in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. the Bucs. He needed help getting off the field and was eventually carted to the locker room. Stay tuned for an update. With Taysom Hill still out with his concussion, QB Trevor Siemian is New Orleans' backup.
Update: Winston has a left knee injury and is questionable to return, the team announced.
Update: Winston has been ruled out.
Jaguars RB James Robinson suffered an ankle injury in the 1st half of Sunday's game vs. Seattle and is officially questionable to return. We'll pass along an update when we get one. RB Carlos Hyde is Robinson's backup.
Panthers QB Sam Darnold sustained a concussion after taking a big hit in the 4th quarter of Sunday's win over the Falcons. It's his 1st documented concussion. We'll track his progress through the protocol this coming week. QB P.J. Walker would start vs. the Patriots if Darnold isn't cleared.
In a statement posted on social media, Falcons WR Calvin Ridley wrote, "I need to step away from football at this time and focus on my mental wellbeing." Ridley has been scratched in 2 of Atlanta's last 3 games. It's unclear when he'll return to the game. We'd recommend keeping him stashed on fantasy benches for now.
Washington CB William Jackson III (knee) is inactive for today's game against Denver. That can only help the matchup for Broncos WRs Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton.
Steelers K Chris Boswell is out for the rest of the Sunday's game vs. the Browns after sustaining a concussion on an attempted fake FG. We'll track his progress through the protocol.
Broncos EDGE Von Miller (ankle) is inactive for today's game against Washington. That leaves a struggling Denver defense without 1 of its top players.
Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. Washington. It’ll be his first action since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the opener. Jeudy is a risk/reward play in Week 8 fantasy lineups.
Buccaneers LB Lavonte David, EDGE Jason Pierre-Paul (shoulder, hand) and CB Richard Sherman (hamstring) are active for today's game against the Saints.
Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski (ribs) is active for today’s game against the Saints. HC Bruce Arians reportedly told Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer that Gronk will only be used in “emergency situations” today. It’s unclear exactly what that means -- but it doesn’t sound like Gronk will be on the field much.
Jaguars CB Tyson Campbell (toe) and DT Davon Hamilton (shoulder) are active for today's game at Seattle.
Chargers LB Drue Tranquill (chest) is active or today's game against the Patriots.
All the defensive starters New England listed as questionable for today's game against the Chargers are active. That includes LB Ja'Whaun Bentley (ribs), DB Kyle Dugger (neck), DT Davon Godchaux (finger), LB Dont'a Hightower (ankle), LB Kyle Van Noy (groin) and DE Deatrich Wise (knee).
Patriots TE Jonnu Smith (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Chargers. He was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable, so don’t expect him to be at 100% today.
Seahawks RB Alex Collins (groin) is active for today’s game against the Jaguars. He got in just 2 limited practices this week, but there was never much concern about his availability for this one. Collins is the best bet for touches in Seattle’s backfield but figures to be in a timeshare with Rashaad Penny, Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas.
Chargers RB Austin Ekeler (hip) is active for today’s game against the Patriots. He was reportedly sore after Wednesday’s practice, so HC Brandon Staley opted to give him the next 2 days off. It adds some risk to Ekeler’s Week 8 profile. But if you waited on him, get him in your starting lineup. It’s worth noting that RB Joshua Kelley is a healthy scratch, leaving just RBs Justin Jackson and Larry Rountree behind Ekeler. That suggests the Chargers aren’t very concerned about Ekeler.
