Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell announced on Thursday that QB Carson Wentz will start Monday night's Week 9 game against the Bills because QB Kyler Murray's hamstring injury will keep him sidelined. Murray was hurt late in Sunday's 19-15 loss to the Lions. The injury was ruled a Grade 1 sprain and his prognosis was listed as day-to-day, but O'Connell ruled him out three days early.

Jets | Breece Hall 'still the starter' on return, Reich says 'it will be a mix' with Allen Thu Nov 5, 08:41 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall, set to return from a quad injury Sunday at Kansas City, said his expectation is that he is "still the starter" despite RB Braelon Allen rushing for 504 yards and two touchdowns in five starts in his absence. Offensive coordinator Frank Reich said, "You've got two No. 1 backs. [Hall] is obviously the bell cow. He's our guy, but it will be a mix." Hall said that although he had practiced in recent weeks, his quad was "still getting inflamed" and sore the day after until recently. He also said he believes he and Allen should have been used more evenly early in the season.

Cardinals | Tyler Allgeier 'going to be the lead back' Sunday with Love on IR, Knight in protocol Thu Nov 5, 07:07 PM
Cardinals RB Tyler Allgeier is going to be the lead back Sunday at Seattle, with RB Jeremiyah Love on injured reserve and out for at least the next four games and RB Bam Knight in the concussion protocol. Allgeier was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week after rushing for 147 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries and adding five catches for 44 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's win over the Cowboys. Head coach Mike LaFleur said he had told Allgeier the Wednesday before that game that he would have a third-down role, before Love and Knight exited with injuries. "He put his cape on and became Superman for us," LaFleur said.

Jaguars | Bhayshul Tuten active for TNF at Ravens, Rodriguez should still see 'a good bit' Thu Nov 5, 07:01 PM
Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten (ankle, foot) is active for Thursday night's game at the Ravens after being listed as questionable. Tuten's pregame workout went well and confirmed he would play. RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. "should still see a good bit" of action Thursday night as well.

Commanders | Jer'Zhan Newton 'trending up', practices fully for second straight day Thu Nov 5, 06:38 PM
Commanders DT Jer'Zhan Newton practiced in full for a second straight day on Thursday as he works to come off injured reserve. His 21-day practice window opened last week, and he is returning from a pectoral injury suffered during the preseason. There is no guarantee he returns for Sunday's game against the Rams, but the odds seem better with him working so much in practice. Washington's defensive line is thin, with DT Daron Payne done for the season and Javon Kinlaw also on injured reserve.

Commanders | Treylon Burks misses practice again, beat writer would 'still guess he plays' Thu Nov 5, 06:31 PM
Commanders WR Treylon Burks (foot) did not participate in practice on Thursday, his second straight missed session. The beat writer said he would "still guess he plays Sunday" against the Rams, adding that more will be known on Friday.
| Footballguys view: The foot injury had Burks in and out of practice a week ago. Burks caught 3-of-5 targets for 81 yards in the Commanders' Week 8 win over the Eagles. Expect him to be out there in Week 9 against the Rams. We like Burks in the deep flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |

Jaguars | Bhayshul Tuten 'good to go' after pregame workout for TNF at Ravens Thu Nov 5, 06:19 PM
Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten is good to go for Thursday night's game against the Ravens after his pregame workout. Tuten was listed as questionable with an ankle injury, and ESPN's Jeremy Fowler had reported earlier Thursday that he 'should be' good for the game barring any pregame setbacks.

Broncos | Talanoa Hufanga returns to practice as limited participant Thu Nov 5, 05:49 PM
Broncos S Talanoa Hufanga returned to practice as a limited participant on Thursday. Hufanga has missed the last three games with an ankle injury, and the Broncos will issue any injury designations for Sunday's game at Carolina on Friday. He had 23 tackles, a sack, two interceptions, an interception return for a touchdown and a forced fumble in the first five weeks of the season.

Broncos | Pat Bryant practices in full on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 05:30 PM
Broncos WR Pat Bryant (ankle), who is on injured reserve, practiced in full on Thursday. Bryant returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day activation window.
| Footballguys view: There is some optimism Bryant can play against the Panthers in Week 9 (two full practices provide that optimism). Upon his return from this ankle injury, the Broncos may ease him back into action. Bryant is competing for the no.3 spot on the depth chart behind Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton. |

Cowboys | Jake Ferguson misses practice again on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 05:05 PM
Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (ankle) did not practice on Thursday, his second straight missed session. Dallas is preparing to face the Colts on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Brevyn Spann-Ford is set to be the top tight end for the Cowboys in Week 9. He took over for an injured Ferguson last week, and Spann-Ford posted four catches (five targets) for 31 yards in Dallas' Week 8 loss to Arizona. We like Spann-Ford as a TE2 with upside if Ferguson is out for the game against the Colts. |

Cowboys | George Pickens limited again on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:48 PM
Cowboys WR George Pickens (hamstring) was limited at practice again on Thursday. He was also limited on Wednesday. Dallas visits the Colts on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: That's back-to-back limited sessions for Pickens. We'll see if he can get a full session in on Friday. Then, we'll see if the Cowboys make good on what Jerry Jones said in terms of getting Pickens the ball more. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson not among Thursday injury report changes Thu Nov 5, 04:41 PM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (illness) did not practice on Wednesday. He was not listed among the changes on Thursday's injury report.
| Footballguys view: Henderson may need more time to heal. He's battled various injuries, including a recurring ankle injury, and that's taken a toll on the young runner. Rhamondre Stevenson is set for another large role in Week 9. We like Stevenson as an RB2 with upside for Sunday's game against the Packers. |
TreVeyon Henderson player page
Patriots | A.J. Brown misses practice again Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:35 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (knee) did not practice again on Thursday ahead of the Week 9 game against the Packers. Brown also did not practice on Wednesday, and he was downgraded to out for last Sunday's game at the Dolphins.
| Footballguys view: We may not see Brown again this week. The team is managing his knee injury, and they want him available for what they hope is a deep postseason run. Fantasy GMs are making other plans. |
A.J. Brown player page
Packers | Christian Watson limited again Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:32 PM
Packers WR Christian Watson was a limited participant in practice again on Thursday, after also being limited on Wednesday. Watson has been playing through a broken rib. Green Bay visits the Patriots on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Against the Patriots in Week 9, we like Watson as a low-end WR1 if he plays. A rib injury comes down to pain tolerance, and we've already seen how tough Watson is. We're expecting him to suit up despite the limited sessions to start the week. |

Colts | Keenan Allen practices in full Thursday after Wednesday rest day Thu Nov 5, 04:27 PM
Colts WR Keenan Allen was a full participant in practice on Thursday after being rested on Wednesday. Allen's absence from Wednesday's session was a rest day, not injury related. The Colts host the Cowboys on Sunday in Week 9.
| Footballguys view: Allen is good to go for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, and he should be in line to lead the team in receiving again. Allen caught 7-of-7 targets for 67 yards in the Colts' Week 8 loss to the Jaguars. As the team continues to trade away assets before next Tuesday's trade deadline, Allen provides their offense with a steady presence. He's a WR3/flex option for Fantasy GMs. |

Browns | Harold Fannin Jr. added to injury report, limited with groin injury Thu Nov 5, 04:20 PM
Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. was added to the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice with a groin injury. A groin injury prematurely ended his rookie season and kept him sidelined for much of the offseason workout program. Fannin caught 10 passes for 154 yards in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.
| Footballguys view: Fannin could feed families (from a fantasy perspective) if he's out there in Week 9 with Shedeur Sanders at quarterback. KC Concepcion could be in line for more targets if Fannin can't play. Let's see what Fannin does on Friday. |
Harold Fannin Jr. player page
Saints | Jordyn Tyson limited again on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:19 PM
Saints rookie WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) was limited at practice again on Thursday. The first-round pick was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday and returned to practice that day.
| Footballguys view: Tyson is a player we're excited to see out there for the Saints. Although we're excited about his pro debut, Tyson is no lock to play in Week 9 with his 21-day practice window just opened earlier this week. |
Jordyn Tyson player page
Lions | Brian Branch full Thursday, 'positioning himself to play' Thu Nov 5, 04:06 PM
Lions S Brian Branch was a full participant at practice on Thursday as he makes steady progress through the NFL's concussion protocol. He still has steps to clear, including clearance from an independent doctor, but his return to the practice field suggests he is positioning himself to play against the Dolphins on Sunday.

Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown limited Thursday, 'on track' to play vs. Dolphins Thu Nov 5, 04:06 PM
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown was limited at practice on Thursday after the team held a walkthrough on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: St. Brown got a little banged up recently, but expectations are that he is on track to play against the Dolphins on Sunday. A full participation on Friday would help us feel better about his status, but if he's on track to play we'll squelch any concern. |
Amon-Ra St. Brown player page
Buccaneers | Baker Mayfield a full participant again on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:06 PM
Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (right thumb) was a full participant in practice on Thursday. Mayfield was also a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Tampa Bay plays at the Bears on Sunday night in Week 9.
| Footballguys view: Mayfield completed 0-of-3 passes for zero yards in the Bucs' 16-0, Week 8 win over the Falcons. Against the Bears on Sunday night, we've got Mayfield in the QB3 range, which means even in start-2QB/superflex leagues you're unlikely to start him in Week 9. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson, Tyler Huntley officially placed on IR; Austin Reed signed to 53-man roster Thu Nov 5, 04:05 PM
The Ravens officially placed QBs Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley on injured reserve on Thursday and signed QB Austin Reed to the 53-man roster. Jackson is set to undergo surgery on his right thumb, an injury head coach Jesse Minter called 'potentially season ending,' while Huntley suffered a turf toe injury described as 'season-ending.' Joe Fagnano is set to start Thursday's game against the Jaguars, with Reed and Kedon Slovis as his backups.

49ers | Christian McCaffrey back in uniform, participating Thursday Thu Nov 5, 04:02 PM
49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) was back in uniform and participating in the early open portion of Thursday's practice. McCaffrey did not practice on Wednesday. The 49ers host the Raiders on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan has described McCaffrey's hamstring injury as mild, and it's a good sign for his Week 9 availability that he's resumed practice on Thursday. He's an RB1 vs the Raiders on Sunday, and we like Kaelon Black as at least a 'what the heck' flex option. |
Christian McCaffrey player page
Jets | Breece Hall a full participant for first time since quad injury Thu Nov 5, 04:00 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was a full participant in practice on Thursday, his first full session since the quad injury. Hall was limited in Wednesday's practice. The Jets play at the Chiefs on Sunday, with game statuses coming on Friday's injury report.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Jets here. Braelon Allen has been fantastic as the team's starter while filling in for Hall. With Hall set to return against the Chiefs on Sunday, we see the team easing him back into action. That puts both running backs in the flex range as the Jets should be using a full-blown RBBC. |
Breece Hall player page
Saints | Alvin Kamara returns to practice Thursday Thu Nov 5, 03:54 PM
Saints RB Alvin Kamara returned to practice on Thursday. Kamara did not practice on Wednesday because of a back issue. The Saints host the Browns on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Against the Browns in Week 9, Kamara should be considered a flex option for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. He's not contributing much as a runner, but Kamara is still effective as a receiver out of the backfield. |
Alvin Kamara player page
Buccaneers | Bucky Irving given veteran rest day on Thursday Thu Nov 5, 03:49 PM
Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving did not practice on Thursday due to a veteran rest day. The Buccaneers play at the Bears on Sunday in Week 9.

Colts | Jonathan Taylor practices in full Thursday after rest days Thu Nov 5, 03:48 PM
Colts RB Jonathan Taylor was a full participant in practice on Thursday after having rest days. Indianapolis hosts the Cowboys on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Taylor hasn't been traded yet, and the team may look to move him after Sunday's game against the Cowboys. We believe Taylor will be playing for a new team in Week 10. With a workload that is expected to be normal (that could change with him being on the trade block), Taylor is his usual RB1 for Fantasy GMs out there. |
Jonathan Taylor player page
Bears | Kyle Monangai does not practice again Thursday Thu Nov 5, 03:35 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai (toe, thumb) did not participate in practice on Thursday. He was also a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated report. Monangai was ruled out of last Monday's win over the Seahawks, his fourth straight missed game.
| Footballguys view: It looks like Monangai is going to miss his fifth straight game. With a bye in Week 10, Monangai could be ready to resume practicing as the team prepares for a Week 11 contest against the Saints. |

49ers | Deebo Samuel 'unlikely to play' Sunday vs. Raiders Thu Nov 5, 02:46 PM
49ers WR Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) is unlikely to play Sunday against the Raiders, Lynch said. Samuel was not expected to practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: No surprise here. The 49ers are likely to be without Deebo Samuel and Mike Evans in Week 9. That means Brandin Cooks, Demarcus Robinson, and Christian Kirk (although he's been limited by a knee injury) could be tasked with more against the Raiders on Sunday. |
Deebo Samuel Sr. player page
Patriots | Hunter Henry absent from practice for second straight day Thu Nov 5, 02:29 PM
Patriots TE Hunter Henry was absent from practice on Thursday for the second day in a row. Henry was limited to eight snaps in Sunday's win over the Dolphins after injuring his foot. Head coach Mike Vrabel said on Tuesday he had 'no expectations yet' for Henry.
| Footballguys view: We could see rookie Eli Raridon as the top tight end for the Patriots in Week 9. Raridon has been flashing in limited appearances so far this year, and he's building a connection with Drake Maye. Raridon caught 1-of-4 targets for five yards in the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Dolphins. He's a streaming option for Fantasy GMs in Week 9 if Henry doesn't play. |

Bills | Joshua Palmer absent from open portion of Thursday practice Thu Nov 5, 02:25 PM

Eagles | Saquon Barkley 'back at practice' Thursday Thu Nov 5, 02:23 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley returned to practice on Thursday. Barkley did not practice Wednesday while dealing with hamstring and back issues. The Eagles host the Giants on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Barkley rushed 13 times for 30 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 8 loss to the Commanders, adding 24 yards on one reception. He's a key cog for what the Eagles want to do, and they'll lean on him more than ever with Joe Milton getting the start at quarterback. He's at least a flex option against the Giants in Week 9. |

Bills | Dalton Kincaid in red non-contact jersey to start Thursday practice Thu Nov 5, 02:15 PM
Bills TE Dalton Kincaid was wearing a red non-contact jersey at the start of practice on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid played through a chest injury in last Sunday's win over the Ravens. He's a key playmaker for the Bills, and they'll need him against a ferocious Vikings' defense on Monday night. We like Kincaid as a TE2 with upside in Week 9. |
