Cardinals WR Rondale Moore did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with a neck and a concussion. It's the first we've heard of either issue, but Moore's status for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers is now in doubt. Check back tomorrow for another update.
Steelers WR Chase Claypool is considered "week-to-week" with a toe injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. We'll look for a more concrete timeline for Claypool's return, but we can safely assume that he'll miss Sunday's game vs. the Lions. With WR JuJu Smith-Schuster on IR, we'll likely see James Washington join Diontae Johnson in 2-WR sets, with Ray-Ray McCloud the #3 WR. Johnson should continue to dominate targets. TE Pat Freiermuth could see more volume, too.
The Lions claimed WR Josh Reynolds off waivers from the Titans. Reynolds could find playing time in Detroit's weak WR corps but is unlikely to become a fantasy factor. You can leave him on the waiver wire.
Ravens RB Latavius Murray (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Thursday night's game vs. the Dolphins. He didn't practice all week and won't play tomorrow. RB Devonta Freeman separated himself a bit in Baltimore's backfield last week and is a solid RB3 or flex play for Week 10.
Ravens WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Dolphins. He was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, though, so we're expecting him to play. Watkins isn't a bankable Week 10 fantasy play does add some downside to WR Rashod Bateman.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (finger) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Ravens. He'll be a game-time decision. "Plan is to make a decision on where Tua’s grip, discomfort and ability to make every throw is after pregame workout," NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe tweeted. QB Jacoby Brissett will start if Tua can't. Both guys are only in play in 2-QB fantasy leagues.
Saints RB Alvin Kamara did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with a knee. Insider Nick Underhill calls Kamara's injury a "minor sprain." Added Underhill, "It's not a major situation. It sounds like it's something that's more day to day. But it does threaten his status for this week against the Tennessee Titans." We'll see if Kamara is able to get on the practice field tomorrow. If he can't play on Sunday, Mark Ingram would step in as New Orleans' lead back.
Broncos TE Noah Fant has been activated from the COVID-19 list. The 24-year-old sat out last Sunday's win over Dallas. Back healthy, he profiles as a low-end TE1 this week vs. Philadelphia.
The Browns have designated LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah to return from IR. That opens a 3-week practice window for the team to determine whether/when to return the rookie to the active roster. JOK is coming off a high-ankle sprain. We'll see about his progression through this return to the field.
Panthers QB Sam Darnold (shoulder) will be placed on IR and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, HC Matt Rhule said Wednesday. Darnold's injury is not believed to be season-ending, Rhule added, but he can be dropped in all 1-QB fantasy leagues. QB P.J. Walker is slated to start while Darnold is out, with QB Matt Barkley backing him up.
Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) has been designated to return and was on the practice field Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Teicher. CEH has been sidelined since spraining his knee back in Week 5. We'll see if he's ready to play against the Raiders on Sunday night. Edwards-Helaire figured to be in a timeshare with RB Darrel Williams when he does return.
Seahawks RB Chris Carson (neck) has been designated to return from IR. That means he'll get back on the practice field this week, but it remains uncertain whether he'll play vs. the Packers on Sunday. We'll continue to keep you updated on the situation.
Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. His availability for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers is uncertain. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.
Cardinals QB Kyler Murray (ankle) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. Not a good start for his chances of returning for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers. QB Colt McCoy played well in place of Murray last week, which might make Arizona more comfortable holding Murray out another week. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.
Bucs WR Chris Godwin missed Wednesday's practice with a foot injury. HC Bruce Arians didn't provide any other details, only saying that they'll need to "wait and see" on Godwin's Week 10 status. Tampa notably signed WR Breshad Perriman to the practice squad earlier this week after he spent 2019 with the team. We'll get another update on Godwin on Thursday.
Washington WR Curtis Samuel (groin) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. There's still no timetable for his return from this lingering groin injury. Samuel isn't worth holding on benches outside of the deepest of fantasy leagues.
Washington TE Logan Thomas' hamstring was sore after Monday's practice, HC Ron Rivera said. Rivera added that a decision on Thomas' Week 10 status won't be made until Friday. None of that is very encouraging. At this point, fantasy owners can't be counting on Thomas this week.
The Boston Herald's Karen Guregian confirms that Patriots RBs Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson are in the concussion protocol. That makes them both iffy for this weekend's game vs. the Browns. Their absences would leave New England's backfield to Brandon Bolden and J.J. Taylor. We'll keep you updated on Harris and Stevenson's statuses.
Bills MLB Tremaine Edmunds came away from Sunday's loss to the Jaguars with a hamstring injury. ESPN's Alaina Getzenberg reports that Edmunds will miss Wednesday's practice. We'll see whether he progresses through the week.
The NFL confirmed on Wednesday that Vikings RB Dalvin Cook remains eligible to play against the Vikings on Sunday, despite the assault allegations levied against him by his ex-girlfriend. There have been no criminal charges filed against Cook, though. “The NFL is reviewing the matter under the personal conduct policy, and there is no change to his status," the league said in a statement. HC Mike Zimmer said that Cook will practice on Wednesday. This is a developing situation. But, as of now, Cook seems on track to play this weekend.
