Ravens | Rashod Bateman (shoulder) practicing Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:00 PM
Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (shoulder) was among several Ravens back practicing on Thursday. Bateman was limited in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: It's a good sign for Bateman's availability being limited on Thursday. It's likely to be Tyler Huntley at quarterback against the Falcons, and that limits the fantasy value of anyone in this passing game. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson (ankle) still not on practice field Thursday Thu Oct 8, 01:00 PM
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) was still not seen on the practice field on Thursday. Jackson did not practice on Wednesday either, though head coach Jesse Minter said on Wednesday that Jackson can play Sunday without practicing.
| Footballguys view: Minter says Jackson can play without practicing, but things are trending for Tyler Huntley to get the start against the Falcons. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Jackson's ankle sprain is "unconventional." Ravens fans and Fantasy GMs need to prepare for what could be a multi-week absence. We'll see what Jackson can do on Friday, and a limited session might mean he's closer to starting than people think. Another "DNP" would make him a game-time decision if he's not just straight up declared out. |

Packers | Chris Brooks (ankle) 'still out' of practice Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:57 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks (ankle) remained out of practice on Thursday. Brooks also did not practice on Wednesday, when head coach Matt LaFleur said he 'will be out today.'
| Footballguys view: Two "DNP" designations to begin the week says that Brooks is on the wrong side of questionable. Marshawn Lloyd should be the lead back for the Packers, and (so long as he doesn't fumble again) Kaleb Johnson will get some work in the backfield as well. |

Texans | Tank Dell 'continues to ramp up' in second practice back, 'going well' Thu Oct 8, 12:32 PM
Texans WR Tank Dell continued to ramp up on Thursday in his second practice back. "It's going well," the report said. Dell was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday, opening his 21-day practice window, and was limited in Wednesday's practice as he works back from a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: The practice window is open, so Dell is getting in the work to see if/when he can return to the field. Fantasy GMs in deeper leagues should feel free to add Dell on waivers, but even when healthy we only see him producing as a 'what the heck' flex. |

Commanders | Terry McLaurin (hamstring) not out for warmups Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:20 PM
Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (hamstring) was not on the field during warmups at Thursday's practice. McLaurin also missed practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: McLaurin is unlikely to suit up in Week 5 against the Giants. However, Stefon Diggs (hamstring) should be out there even though he's dealing with his own injury. They've got a game against the 49ers on Monday Night Football in Week 6, so missing Week 5 with an eye on a return for that game could be in their plans. We'll see what McLaurin can do next week in practice. |

Commanders | Stefon Diggs (hamstring) back at practice Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:15 PM
Commanders WR Stefon Diggs (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday. Diggs did not practice on Wednesday because of the hamstring injury. The extent of his participation was not specified.
| Footballguys view: Diggs is trending towards playing in Week 5, and with Terry McLaurin likely to miss the game with his own hamstring injury, we should see him as the lead receiver. From a fantasy perspective, adding in the likely return of Jayden Daniels, we've got Diggs as a WR4/deep flex play in PPR formats. |

Steelers | Michael Pittman Jr. re-injured foot, expected to miss 'multiple weeks' Thu Oct 8, 11:43 AM
Steelers WR Michael Pittman Jr. re-injured his foot and is now expected to miss multiple weeks, head coach Mike McCarthy said on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Pittman was limited in Wednesday's practice with the foot injury and was seen on a scooter and later wearing a boot on his left foot/ankle. The team could put Pittman on IR, and that would cost him at least a month to recover. Without Pittman, we'll see more Roman Wilson and Germie Bernard when the Steelers go to the air. |

Ravens | Marlon Humphrey misses Wednesday practice, not an IR candidate Thu Oct 8, 08:30 AM
Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey, who was injured in Sunday's win over the Titans, did not practice on Wednesday but is not considered an IR candidate. His injury leaves Baltimore suddenly thin at outside cornerback heading into Sunday night's game against the Falcons.

Bengals rookie WR Colbie Young (knee) practiced in a limited fashion on Wednesday for the first time since getting hurt on the first snap of his first NFL start at Pittsburgh 10 days ago. Young said there is a possibility he will be back for Sunday's game at Miami, adding, "It's been feeling great."

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet remains limited, won't play this week Wed Oct 7, 06:46 PM
Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) remained limited at practice on Wednesday. Head coach Mike Macdonald said Charbonnet won't play this week against the 49ers.
| Footballguys view: Charbonnet won't play this week, but there's a chance he'll play next week as the Seahawks play on Thursday Night Football against the Broncos in Week 6. He's limited at practice on Wednesday, so we'll see what the team decides about his Week 6 status early next week. Emanuel Wilson leads the Seattle rushing attack for one more week. |

Chargers | Ladd McConkey (foot) does not practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 06:45 PM
Chargers WR Ladd McConkey did not practice on Wednesday, according to the team's first injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Broncos.

Neither of the Chargers' starting offensive tackles practiced on Wednesday either.

Eagles | Saquon Barkley (hamstring) among Eagles' DNPs on Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 06:09 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Jaguars in London. Barkley is dealing with a hamstring injury that has him "week-to-week".
| Footballguys view: The Eagles are fighting through a few things as they travel to London this week. RB Will Shipley is next up in the Eagles' backfield, with Tank Bigsby headed to injured reserve. We like Shipley as an RB3/flex play in Week 5 against the Jaguars. |

Texans | Nico Collins limited Wednesday for rest Wed Oct 7, 05:27 PM
Texans WR Nico Collins was limited in practice on Wednesday, listed with a rest designation.
| Footballguys view: Collins caught seven passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. It was great to see him out there for the Texans again, and if he's good for the game against the Titans, we like him as a low-end WR1. |

Patriots | RB Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Patriots HC Mike Vrabel did say there's a chance Stevenson plays in Week 5 after getting injured late in Week 4. If Stevenson can't play, TreVeyon Henderson would be in line for a large workload. |
Rhamondre Stevenson player page
Colts | WR Keenan Allen (groin) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Colts WR Keenan Allen (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Allen's groin injury kept him out of Week 4. It seems like he's trending towards playing against the Steelers in Week 5. We like the veteran receiver as a 'what the heck' flex, but only in super deep PPR formats this week. |
Keenan Allen player page
Bears | RB D'Andre Swift (hip) did not practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (hip) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: With Swift banged up, the Bears can easily turn to Kyle Monangai again. After 30 carries a week ago, Monangai did get banged up with a toe injury. We'll see if Swift can get out there later in the week and suit up for Week 5 against the Packers. |
D'Andre Swift player page
Ravens | WR Zay Flowers (foot) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 05:15 PM
Ravens WR Zay Flowers (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
| Footballguys view: The Ravens have the Falcons on Sunday Night Football in Week 5. Flowers' status is one to watch due to the late start. We feel he should play, and if Flowers is out there, then he can produce like a low-end WR1 for Fantasy GMs. |
Zay Flowers player page
Broncos | Sean Payton calls J.K. Dobbins 'an important piece of what we're doing' Wed Oct 7, 04:57 PM
Broncos head coach Sean Payton praised RB J.K. Dobbins on Wednesday. "He's an important piece of what we're doing," Payton said.
| Footballguys view: The Broncos can't run the ball effectively, and Dobbins looked either injured or washed. Have injuries finally caught up with him? The Broncos don't get rookie Jonah Coleman back for another couple of weeks, so Dobbins - if healthy enough - will continue to get the bulk of the carries. RJ Harvey is great in space, but we're seeing he's most effective as a receiving back. |
J.K. Dobbins player page
Steelers | Rodgers declines comment on whether McCarthy's play calls come in fast enough Wed Oct 7, 04:41 PM
Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers declined to comment on whether he believes the play calls are coming in fast enough from head coach Mike McCarthy. Rodgers was not asked after last Thursday's Week 4 loss in Cleveland about his viral moment with McCarthy.
| Footballguys view: Football is an emotional game, and Rodgers is a grumpy old man (LOL) so we get it... things got heated as they sometimes do. That moment was sparked by Rodgers' obvious frustration with how long it was taking to communicate the play call to the huddle. We're certain things will continue to get heated if the plays don't get in faster. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant (ankle) not spotted at Wednesday practice Wed Oct 7, 04:40 PM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant (ankle) was not spotted during the viewing period of Wednesday's practice, Denver's first session of the week ahead of its Week 5 game at the Chargers.
| Footballguys view: Without Bryant against the Chargers in Week 5, we should see more from Troy Franklin as the team's no.3 option at the wide receiver position. Franklin has 'what the heck' flex appeal in crazy deep leagues. Bryant avoided the worst-case scenario on his MRI, but is still dealing with an ankle sprain suffered in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. |

Jets | Breece Hall does not practice Wednesday ahead of Week 5 vs. Browns Wed Oct 7, 04:34 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall did not practice on Wednesday as the team began preparations for Sunday's Week 5 game against the Browns.
| Footballguys view: Hall was ruled out for the Jets' Week 4 game against the Bears and was described as "week-to-week" earlier Wednesday. A DNP on Wednesday does not automatically count Hall out, but it's not a great start. We'll see Braelon Allen continue as the Jets' lead back if Hall needs to miss more time. |
Breece Hall player page
Adonai Mitchell held out of practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 04:34 PM
Jets WR Adonai Mitchell did not practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 5 game against the Browns.
| Footballguys view: Mitchell was ruled out for Week 4 and was described as 'week-to-week' earlier Wednesday. Like Breece Hall, a DNP on Wednesday is not a great sign for Mitchell's availability against the Browns. Garrett Wilson is the top target, but without Mitchell we'll see more from Isaiah Williams like we did a week ago. Williams is worth a 'what the heck' flex play but only in deeper leagues. |
Adonai Mitchell player page
Dolphins | Chris Bell (knee) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 04:33 PM
Dolphins rookie WR Chris Bell (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Bell caught 0-of-3 targets in the Dolphins' Week 4 loss to the Vikings. It was a disastrous outing to be sure, but there's some deep 'what the heck' flex appeal with Bell out there against the Bengals. |

Chargers | Ladd McConkey works off to the side with a trainer Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 04:33 PM
Chargers WR Ladd McConkey was off to the side working with a trainer during the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media. McConkey is dealing with a foot injury. WRs Brenen Thompson and Quentin Johnston were also working off to the side.
| Footballguys view: It's a start for McConkey, but a limited practice by Friday is what we're focused on. Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh said earlier this week that McConkey was considered day-to-day after aggravating his foot injury in Week 4 against the Seahawks. The Chargers are at home with an AFC West battle against the Broncos on Sunday. |

Bengals | Tee Higgins among six Bengals out of Wednesday practice Wed Oct 7, 04:31 PM
Bengals WR Tee Higgins was one of six Cincinnati players who missed practice on Wednesday. Higgins was considered 'day-to-day' on Monday with an injury suffered in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Higgins has a neck/adductor designation. With multiple injuries to deal with, Higgins is likely out of Week 5's game against Miami. We'll see if Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) can clear the NFL protocol at some point this week. |
