Patriots | A.J. Brown returning to practice Wednesday, 21-day IR window opens Wed Oct 14, 01:01 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown will return to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day window to be activated off injured reserve. Brown has been on IR with an ankle sprain. The Patriots host the Jets on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Brown's window to return is open, and the Patriots could activate him for the game against the Jets. If he does play in Week 6, Brown is likely to be limited as the team works him back into the game plan. That makes Brown a WR3/flex candidate for Fantasy GMs excited to get him back. With more time (and when he gets back into football shape), Brown will get back to his normal weekly WR1 status. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice won't practice Wednesday, per Andy Reid Wed Oct 14, 12:49 PM
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) will not practice on Wednesday, head coach Andy Reid said. Rice injured his hamstring in the first quarter against the Raiders on Oct. 4 and left that game.
| Footballguys view: Hamstring injuries on fast players are tricky to deal with. Rice could suit up in Week 6, but coming off a bye and missing practice on Wednesday is not a great sign. We'll see if he can at least be limited by Friday at the latest. |

Jets | Kenyon Sadiq still in concussion protocol Wed Oct 14, 12:46 PM
Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq remains in the concussion protocol as of Wednesday. Sadiq was ruled out with a concussion during Sunday's win over the Browns. The Jets visit the Patriots in Week 6.
| Footballguys view: Sadiq was concussed in Week 5, and now he must get through the protocol to play in Week 6. If the rookie can't clear protocol in time, Mason Taylor would be a flex-worthy tight end against the Patriots on Sunday. |

Raiders | Raiders have 'internally discussed' giving Ashton Jeanty a week off to heal Wed Oct 14, 12:46 PM
The Raiders have internally discussed giving RB Ashton Jeanty a week off to heal at some point, ESPN's Dan Graziano reported on Wednesday. "He does not want to take a week off and has pushed to play through the injuries," Graziano reported. Jeanty played through ankle and foot injuries in Sunday's loss to the Patriots after being a game-time decision.
| Footballguys view: On Wednesday, Raiders HC Klint Kubiak shot down the idea of Jeanty getting a week of rest. In fact, Kubiak said Jeanty is starting to "feel a lot better." We've got Jeanty in the low-end RB1 range against the Bills in Week 6. |

Texans | Caserio: clear picture of Marvin Harrison Jr.'s role may be '3-4 weeks' away Wed Oct 14, 12:41 PM
Texans GM Nick Caserio said on 95.7 The Fan that the team likely won't have a clear picture of WR Marvin Harrison Jr.'s role for another three to four weeks, potentially after the bye. Caserio also emphasized that acquiring a young receiver under contract for at least two more seasons was part of the reasoning behind the trade. Players need time to get acclimated to a new offense, which is why head coach DeMeco Ryans usually pursues in-season additions who were with the team in camp or have played in similar systems.
| Footballguys view: Texans HC DeMeco Ryans said Harrison will play in Week 6 against the Jaguars. What should Fantasy GMs expect? Well, early on the team is likely to ease him into action as he learns the playbook. We're excited about the fresh start for Harrison, but this week against the Jaguars (in London) we only see him as a "what-the-heck" flex. With more time on his new team, Harrison could easily have weekly flex appeal. |

Buccaneers | Antoine Winfield Jr. continues to recover from rib fracture Wed Oct 14, 12:32 PM

Titans | Tony Pollard not at Titans practice Wednesday Wed Oct 14, 12:28 PM
Titans RB Tony Pollard was not at practice on Wednesday. The official injury report listed it as a rest day. Pollard and RB Tyjae Spears split the running back snaps nearly evenly in Sunday's loss to the Texans.
| Footballguys view: Pollard has been missing practices during the week, only to show up on gameday and produce for the Titans. Pollard rushed 14 times for 52 yards in Tennessee's Week 5 loss to the Texans. In Week 6 against the Colts, we've got Pollard in the RB2/flex range. We'll see if he's moved before the trade deadline, as there are plenty of teams who could use a back like Pollard. |

Adonai Mitchell had surgery on injured finger, 'week-to-week' Wed Oct 14, 12:27 PM
Jets WR Adonai Mitchell did have a surgical procedure to repair his injured finger, head coach Aaron Glenn acknowledged on Wednesday. Mitchell is week-to-week.
| Footballguys view: If Mitchell doesn't play in Week 6, that will make four straight missed games. With Omar Cooper Jr. returning to practice, the Jets will be establishing a pecking order for receivers not named Garrett Wilson. |

Breece Hall 'week-to-week,' per Aaron Glenn Wed Oct 14, 12:26 PM
Jets RB Breece Hall (quad) is week-to-week, head coach Aaron Glenn said on Wednesday. Hall was ruled out for the Week 5 win over the Browns and has now been given no clear timeline for a return.
| Footballguys view: The Jets can easily continue with Braelon Allen as their lead back. We've got Allen as an RB2 with upside in Week 6 against the Patriots. |

Browns | Dylan Sampson designated for return, Monken says 'chance' he plays Sunday Wed Oct 14, 12:16 PM
Browns RB Dylan Sampson has been designated for return from injured reserve and is eligible to return to practice. Head coach Todd Monken said Wednesday there is a "chance" Sampson could play Sunday against the Ravens. Sampson was placed on injured reserve in September with a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Jaleel McLaughlin could be the lead back for the Browns against the Ravens in Week 6. If Sampson does play, it's likely they ease him back into action after a four-week stint on IR. |

Bears | Caleb Williams a full participant on Wednesday's estimated report Wed Oct 14, 12:09 PM
Bears QB Caleb Williams (hamstring) will be listed as a full participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, head coach Ben Johnson said.
| Footballguys view: Williams missed Sunday's loss to the Packers with the hamstring injury after being listed as questionable following a limited practice on Friday. He's getting closer to a return, and we should see the Bears' franchise quarterback in action on Sunday. If he plays against the Falcons, Williams should be considered a QB1 for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Falcons | Michael Penix Jr. set to practice Wednesday despite rib injury Wed Oct 14, 11:59 AM
Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. is set to practice on Wednesday despite a rib injury. Rapoport called it "a good sign for his availability this weekend" for Sunday's game against the Bears.
| Footballguys view: Potentially good news for the Falcons here. Well, anything to keep Tua Tagovailoa off the field. Penix's rib injury was described as "not considered serious" on Monday after he left Sunday's loss to the Ravens. Penix is feeling better and will likely start Sunday against the Bears, assuming no setbacks, Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski told reporters on Wednesday. |

Browns | Quinshon Judkins walking around locker room without a boot Wed Oct 14, 11:55 AM
Browns RB Quinshon Judkins (ankle) was walking around the locker room without a boot ahead of practice on Wednesday. Judkins left the stadium in a right walking boot after Sunday's loss to the Jets, and head coach Todd Monken called him "day-to-day" on Monday.
| Footballguys view: A day-to-day designation means Judkins could be closer to playing than some think. However, he might have to miss Week 6 against the Ravens. If that's the case, Jaleel McLaughlin would be in line to be the top back for the Browns. Let's see what Judkins can do on Friday. We see McLaughlin as an RB5/deep flex play if Judkins can't play in Week 6. |

KC Concepcion Jr. 'progressing very well,' set to practice Wednesday Wed Oct 14, 11:52 AM
Browns rookie WR KC Concepcion Jr. (concussion) is "progressing very well" and is set to practice on Wednesday. Concepcion was knocked out cold by a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jets S Minkah Fitzpatrick in Sunday's loss and was placed in the concussion protocol.
| Footballguys view: Concepcion has to work his way through the league's concussion protocol. If he plays against the Ravens, we like the rookie as a deep flex play in Week 6. |

Browns | Shedeur Sanders hires an agent while stuck behind Deshaun Watson Wed Oct 14, 11:25 AM
Browns QB Shedeur Sanders has hired an agent, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported. Sanders is the backup behind starting QB Deshaun Watson. WR Marvin Harrison Jr. hired a pair of agents last month to seek and facilitate a trade and has since been dealt from the Cardinals to the Texans. Earlier this month, the Browns were reported to "welcome a deal at the right price" for Sanders or QB Dillon Gabriel.
| Footballguys view: Even though he fell to the fifth round a year ago, there should be teams interested in Sanders. The Ravens did like him before the draft, so perhaps he could go there and learn behind Lamar Jackson. Sanders has talent as a passer, but so long as Watson is playing good ball, he won't get an opportunity to showcase his talent. We'll see if someone like the idea of adding Sanders as a developmental prospect. |

Buccaneers | Baker Mayfield to test thumb grip Wednesday, Jalon Daniels expected to start vs. Steelers Wed Oct 14, 09:08 AM
Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (thumb) is expected to test his ability to grip and throw the football on Wednesday, though whether he can do so effectively is still to be determined.
| Footballguys view: Rookie QB Jalon Daniels is expected to start Sunday against the Steelers unless Mayfield recovers more quickly than expected. Tampa Bay's next game after the Steelers is at Carolina. Perhaps Mayfield will be ready for that contest. Stay tuned. |

Bears | Montez Sweat suspended two games Tue Oct 13, 04:32 PM
The NFL announced on Tuesday that Bears defensive end Montez Sweat is suspended without pay for two games for violating the NFL policy on performance-enhancing substances.
| Footballguys view: Sweat will miss Sunday's game against the Falcons and the following Thursday night game against the Patriots. He will then be eligible to return Week 8 against the Seahawks on Monday Night Football. The 30-year-old Sweat, who arrived in Chicago via trade from Washington during the 2023 season, has started all five games and played 69 percent of the Bears' defensive snaps this season. He has two sacks. |

Raheim Sanders to injured reserve with hip injury, Browns sign Audric Estimé Tue Oct 13, 04:28 PM
The Browns placed RB Raheim Sanders (hip) on injured reserve on Tuesday and signed RB Audric Estimé to the active roster from the Vikings' practice squad.
| Footballguys view: Sanders sustained the hip injury in Sunday's loss to the Jets; he has appeared in all five games this season. Estimé, a third-year player and 2024 fifth-round pick of the Broncos, has appeared in 20 career games with Denver and New Orleans, totaling 122 carries for 508 yards and three touchdowns, plus 17 receptions for 130 yards. Remember, with Quinshon Judkins dealing with an ankle issue and Dylan Sampson out with a knee injury, Jaleel McLaughlin and Estimé are the only healthy backs on the roster. We'll be watching Judkins' progress closely when Cleveland begins practicing on Wednesday. |

The Ravens announced on Tuesday that they have released WR Chris Moore from the 53-man roster. They also released WR Xavier Guillory from the practice squad. Baltimore is due to get back rookie WR Ja'Kobi Lane, who has been on injured reserve.
| Footballguys view: Lane is eligible to come off injured reserve after missing the past four games. HC Jesse Minter said it was possible that Lane could return to face the Cleveland Browns in Week 6. Lane was the star of training camp and preseason before suffering a wrist injury in Week 1. |

Rams | PK Harrison Mevis released; Blake Grupe signed Tue Oct 13, 03:49 PM
The Rams are releasing kicker Harrison Mevis and signing Blake Grupe off the New York Jets' practice squad, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Mevis missed a 50-yard field goal attempt in the first quarter and had a 48-yard kick blocked in overtime that would have been the winner in Monday night's 37-34 loss to the Bills. After the game, Rams coach Sean McVay said he would "evaluate everything" about the kicking unit. Mevis was 5-for-9 on field goal attempts this season. Grupe started last season with the New Orleans Saints, going 18 of 26 on field goal attempts. After he was cut during the season, he signed with the Indianapolis Colts and made all 11 of his field goal attempts. |

Vikings | Jauan Jennings' trade market 'expected to heat up' after Harrison Jr. deal Tue Oct 13, 01:57 PM
Vikings WR Jauan Jennings is another receiver whose trade market is expected to heat up in the wake of the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade, it was reported on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday. A reunion with the 49ers was floated as a possibility.
| Footballguys view: A seventh-round pick in 2020, Jennings gradually turned himself into a contributor for the 49ers. Jennings' best season came in 2024 when he caught 77 passes for 975 yards and six touchdowns, as a slew of injuries essentially forced him to be the team's No. 1 wide receiver. The Vikings signed Jennings with the hope that he could work as an effective secondary target behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. And yet, even with both guys missing time because of injuries, Jennings has just two catches for nine yards so far this year. Stay tuned. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker in uniform on Tuesday Tue Oct 13, 01:54 PM
Panthers WR Jalen Coker, who has been dealing with a quad injury, was in uniform on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: On Monday, Coker was described as "on track" in his recovery but with "big days of practice" ahead. It's reasonable to believe the off week worked in his favor. We'll be following up on Coker, who has averaged 17.4 fantasy points in three games, as the week progresses. |

Giants didn't trade for McCarthy to supplant Winston or Dart; Dart 'long-term guy' Tue Oct 13, 01:32 PM
The Giants did not trade for QB J.J. McCarthy with the intention of supplanting QB Jameis Winston or QB Jaxson Dart, NFL insider Jordan Schultz said on Tuesday. Schultz said Dart remains the team's long-term quarterback.
| Footballguys view: McCarthy, according to Schultz, is additional insurance in case the injury bug hits the Giants' quarterback room again. However, the league insider acknowledged that if the wheels fall off on the Giants offense with Winston under center, things could change. For now, the Giants are simply evaluating what they have in McCarthy, who has a positive relationship with OC Matt Nagy. |

Vikings | Solak: Jordan Mason's 'impending return' shouldn't be underrated Tue Oct 13, 01:00 PM
ESPN's Ben Solak wrote on Tuesday that the impending return of Vikings RB Jordan Mason, described as a co-starting running back, should not be underrated.
| Footballguys view: Solak said the Vikings "want to do so much more in the designed running game with Murray and in the power play-action game with Mason as a bruising back." Aaron Jones Sr. has been impressive in Mason's absence, but it's fair to wonder if the workload he's seen the last three weeks is sustainable. Minnesota is on its bye in Week 6 and resumes play in Week 7. Proactive fantasy managers should be checking Mason's availability in their leagues. |

Bengals | Tanner Hudson suffers torn pec, likely out for the season Tue Oct 13, 11:49 AM
Bengals TE Tanner Hudson suffered a torn pectoral and will likely be out for the season, his agent told ESPN on Tuesday. Hudson has been a big receiving option for QB Joe Burrow and caught a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.
| Footballguys view: Hudson suffered the injury while trying to make a tackle on special teams in Cincinnati's 31-24 victory in Week 5. Earlier in the game, he had three catches for 14 yards and a touchdown reception. Cincinnati's other reserve tight end options include Erick All Jr. and Jack Endries, a seventh-round pick in this year's draft who has been inactive in three of the team's five games this season. |

Malik Willis 'not seen throwing' at Dolphins bye-week practice Tue Oct 13, 10:53 AM
Dolphins QB Malik Willis was not seen throwing at the team's bye-week practice on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Willis took snaps and handoffs and performed an easy throwing motion with the ball in hand without releasing it. The bye-week day of drills is largely meant for players who have had limited playing time, so the fact that he's on the field is worth noting. That's especially true after coach Jeff Hafley gave the QB a vote of confidence when asked about Willis' job security on Monday. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson out 'multiple weeks' with high ankle sprain Tue Oct 13, 10:18 AM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson suffered a high ankle sprain during Sunday's win over the Raiders and is expected to miss multiple weeks, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported, citing league sources.
| Footballguys view: Henderson will not need surgery, and because he is regarded as a quick healer, the Patriots are hoping he returns "sooner rather than later." RB Corey Kiner moves up from No. 3 to No. 2 on the depth chart, with RB Lan Larison on the practice squad to fill the third spot. But Rhamondre Stevenson handled most of the backfield snaps following Henderson's departure last week. Expect that to continue. |

Brandin Cooks 'next man up' at WR with Deebo Samuel Sr. injured Tue Oct 13, 02:18 AM
49ers WR Brandin Cooks is the next man up at wide receiver with WR Deebo Samuel Sr. sidelined by a hamstring injury. Samuel is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks.
| Footballguys view: All signs point to a bigger role for Cooks, who played nearly every snap after Samuel exited and had an impressive, sliding touchdown catch to reclaim the lead in the fourth quarter of Sunday's win over Seattle. Cooks is worth adding off waivers. |

Steelers | McCarthy calls Jaylen Warren 'our featured player right now' Tue Oct 13, 01:49 AM
Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy said on Monday that RB Jaylen Warren is "our featured player right now" when asked whether a shared backfield of Warren and RB Rico Dowdle was his vision for the offense. Dowdle (toe) was inactive for Sunday's win over the Colts, in which Warren ran for 101 yards and a touchdown and added 87 receiving yards and another score.
| Footballguys view: The expectation entering the season was that Warren and Dowdle would split carries, with the latter potentially fitting better with who McCarthy wanted to be. But in the first five games, and especially with Dowdle out, it's clear Warren is the Steelers' best playmaker. On Sunday, he became the first player in Steelers history with a 50-yard rushing touchdown and an 80-yard receiving touchdown in the same game. On 21 touches, Warren forced five missed tackles and generated a career-high 130 yards after missed tackles. Warren is RB8 overall after five games. |

Rams | Davante Adams hits more scoring milestones with 2-TD night Tue Oct 13, 01:35 AM
Rams WR Davante Adams had two red-zone touchdowns, with catches of 4 and 5 yards, in Monday night's overtime loss to the Bills.
| Footballguys view: His fourth-quarter touchdown was his 62nd receiving touchdown inside the 10-yard line. He has the most in NFL history according to ESPN Research, and his 87 receiving touchdowns in the red zone rank as the third most in league history. His 4-yard touchdown in the second quarter was his 96th career touchdown (including playoffs) inside 20 yards, breaking a tie with Hall of Famer Antonio Gates for second all time. Regardless of distance, Adams now has 121 receiving touchdowns in the regular season, which is tied for sixth all time with Hall of Famer Larry Fitzgerald. |

Bills | Cook runs for 111 yards, two TDs in win over Rams Tue Oct 13, 12:10 AM
Buffalo Bills RB James Cook III ran 25 times for 111 yards and two touchdowns, also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 1 target and lost 1 fumble in Monday's 37-34 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was projected for 15.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 23.3.
| Footballguys view: As USA Today suggested, Cook "looked electric at times" on Monday night, breaking some long runs to go with the two touchdowns. He continued to have issues with ball security, but the Bills will apparently live with that. They never went away from him in Los Angeles, and the result was an RB4 overall finish. |

Rams | Stafford throws for 383 yards, three touchdowns in loss to Bills Tue Oct 13, 12:04 AM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 40 of 54 passes for 383 yards with 3 touchdowns in Monday's 37-34 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He was projected for 19.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 27.3.
| Footballguys view: Stafford couldn't quite pull out the win, but he still left SoFi Stadium with a historic NFL milestone under his belt. Stafford threw his 150th career touchdown with the Rams in the second half. That made Stafford the first quarterback in NFL history to throw at least 150 touchdown passes with two different franchises. He also finished Week 5 as the QB5 overall. |
Matthew Stafford player page
Bills | Allen throws for 210 yards, a touchdown in win over Rams Tue Oct 13, 12:02 AM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 12 of 19 passes for 210 yards with 1 touchdown and 1 interception and added 10 carries for 121 yards and another touchdown in Monday's 37-34 win over the Los Angeles Rams. He was projected for 22.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 29.5.
| Footballguys view: With DJ Moore and Joshua Palmer ruled out with shoulder injuries, the Bills passing attack was muzzled for most of the game. This wasn't much of a surprise. The same sort of thing happened in the second halves against Detroit and New England without Moore. Still, with Allen's receivers consistently unable to pop open downfield, the quarterback incorporated more scrambles into his repertoire than he has since Week 2. Allen ranked third among all Week 5 QBs. |

Rams | Nacua catches 17 passes for 138 yards, a touchdown in loss to Bills Tue Oct 13, 12:01 AM
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua ran 2 times for 9 yards and also caught 17 passes for 138 yards and a touchdown on 24 targets in Monday's 37-34 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He was projected for 16.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 29.2.
| Footballguys view: Nacua set new career highs in receptions and targets, as well as a team-high figure in receiving yards. As CBSSports.com suggested, Nacua monopolized Matthew Stafford's attention even more than usual, although the one positive for the Bills defense is that it did a solid job keeping Nacua from doing much damage after the catch. The fourth-year pro also recorded his first receiving touchdown of the season. His production Monday nearly made up for his two-game absence earlier in the season. The Rams have a Week 6 divisional home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday. |

Browns | Browns reportedly signing Audric Estime with Quinshon Judkins 'day-to-day' Mon Oct 12, 06:15 PM
The Browns are signing RB Audric Estimé to their active roster, according to multiple reports, and will need a corresponding move to clear a 53-man roster spot.
| Footballguys view: The move comes after Browns RB Quinshon Judkins left Sunday's loss to the Jets in a walking boot; HC Todd Monken said Monday that Judkins is day-to-day but would not rule anyone out for Week 6 against the Ravens. Judkins has 73 rushing attempts this season, with Raheim Sanders (9) and Jaleel McLaughlin (2) the only other Browns running backs to carry the ball. Estimé had 46 carries for 198 yards and one touchdown in seven games with the Saints last season. |

O'Connell noted the group's versatility, and of WR Jauan Jennings in particular said: "I do believe his opportunities will come."
