Saints | RB CJ Donaldson ruled out for Week 10 Fri Nov 13, 04:35 PM
Saints RB CJ Donaldson (shoulder) is listed as out on the Week 10 injury report. CJ Donaldson did not participate in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Donaldson has been pretty consistently involved as a pass blocker this year, but there hasn't been much fantasy value to get excited about. With Audric Estime's role growing and Travis Etienne Jr. expected back soon, Donaldson is droppable in all non-dynasty formats. |

Bengals WR Andrei Iosivas (thumb) is listed as doubtful on the Week 10 injury report. Andrei Iosivas was a full participant in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: It's good to see Iosivas back at practice, but he's not quite ready for practice after tearing a ligament in his thumb in Week 2. |
Andrei Iosivas player page
Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (knee) is listed as out on the Week 10 injury report. Jake Ferguson did not participate in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Ferguson is expected to miss a few weeks after suffering a knee injury. Brevyn Spann-Ford has been a bit more involved over the last few weeks. He's worth a stash to see what his role looks like, but only in deep leagues. |
Jake Ferguson player page
Cowboys RB Tyler Goodson (knee) is listed as out on the Week 10 injury report. Tyler Goodson did not participate in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Goodson is expected to miss a few weeks, making him droppable in all formats. Israel Abanikanda will back up Javonte Williams while Goodson is out, and he's a stashable handcuff in deep leagues. |
Tyler Goodson player page
Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed is good to go for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Raiders in Las Vegas. Shaheed is back after missing two games with a knee injury. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Shaheed plays an effective role in clearing out space by going deep and delivering value as a returner. Unfortunately, that doesn't do much for fantasy production. He's a sit in Week 10 against the Raiders. |
Rashid Shaheed player page
Jets WR Adonai Mitchell is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills.
| Footballguys view: Mitchell wasn't on the injury report Wednesday or Thursday, so an addition to Friday's with a "knee" is a bit concerning. He was able to log a full practice, but it's uncertain exactly what happened. We'll update here as soon as we have more news. |
Adonai Mitchell player page
Jets WR Garrett Wilson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills. Wilson, who has been in the concussion protocol, was a full participant in practice on Friday, and head coach Aaron Glenn said he is 'confident' Wilson plays Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Wilson missed last week's game due to this concussion, but a full practice on Friday puts him on track to play. Start him as a WR2 in your fantasy lineups. |
Garrett Wilson player page
Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills. Cooper, who has been dealing with an ankle injury, was limited in practice on Thursday and was called 'good to go' for Sunday on Friday.
| Footballguys view: The weekly Whac-A-Mole game of picking the right Jets receiver has been nothing but frustrating. Cooper followed up back-to-back games with 100-plus yards and a score with a zero-target outing in Week 8. He rebounded in Week 9, but left in the fourth quarter after aggravating an ankle injury that placed him on IR after Week 1. Expect him to play this week against the Bills, start him in your fantasy lineup, and embrace the volatility, knowing that it can pay off with immense upside. |
Omar Cooper Jr. player page
Jaguars RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. (hand) has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans. Rodriguez was limited at practice on Wednesday and Thursday with the hand injury.
| Footballguys view: It looks like Bhayshul Tuten should be up as well, putting Rodriguez in the RB3 range. If Tuten suffers a setback and is inactive, Rodriguez becomes a must-start option. Even if Tuten is active, though, there are a few paths to a productive day for Rodriguez. He could score a touchdown, get a second-half run in a blowout, or be more involved as the Jaguars manage Tuten's workload. He's not someone to force into lineups, but he has more upside this week than the average backup running back. |
Chris Rodriguez Jr. player page
Vikings WR Jordan Addison (thumb) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Packers on Minnesota's final injury report.
| Footballguys view: Addison wasn't on the Wednesday or Thursday injury reports and showed up Friday with a "thumb" designation while being held to limited participation. We'll update here when we get more news. Luckily, the Vikings and Packers play in the early slate. If Addison is out, fantasy managers will have plenty of options to pivot to. If he is active, he has much more upside playing with Kirk Cousins than in any other game this year. He'll be in the boom-or-bust WR3 range if active, but check back on Sunday morning for an update. |

Vikings LB Blake Cashman will be out for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Packers, head coach Kevin O'Connell said on Friday.

Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Packers. Hockenson was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday and was not seen at Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: As expected, Hockenson won't play this week. Gavin Bartholomew should be a full-time tight end in his absence, making him an intriguing, albeit risky, streamer. Hockenson will hope to return next week for a Sunday Night Football matchup against the 49ers. |
T.J. Hockenson player page
Vikings WR Jauan Jennings (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Packers. Jennings also missed Monday's game against the Bills and was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Jennings hasn't had a single fantasy-relevant game this year. There's a chance he can find a role in an improved offense left by Kirk Cousins, but there are probably players you can stash with more upside. |
Jauan Jennings player page
Vikings QB Kirk Cousins will start Sunday's game against the Packers, head coach Kevin O'Connell said on Friday. QB Kyler Murray has been ruled out with his hamstring injury.
| Footballguys view: As Kevin O'Connell said in Wednesday's press conference, "We acquired Kirk to join a 6-2 football team and play." And play he will. Cousins is expected to immediately elevate a sputtering Vikings offense. It's a bit early to trust Cousins in Week 10 lineups, but Justin Jefferson's managers can breathe a sigh of relief. |

Texans DE Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Browns, according to the team's Friday injury report. Anderson was added to the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday with the ankle injury and was not seen at Friday's practice.
Link to storyWill Anderson Jr. player page
Texans RB David Montgomery (groin) is questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Browns. Montgomery returned to practice on Thursday and was at practice again on Friday after not being seen at practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: A full practice on Friday is a great sign. Additionally, the Texans released running back Dare Ogunbawale today, which could signal that Montgomery is trending in the right direction. Montgomery found the end zone three times in Week 1 but looked sluggish and unproductive after that before picking up this groin injury. With Woody Marks clearing the final injury report and expecting to suit up against the Browns, Montgomery is a shaky RB3. |
David Montgomery player page
Texans DE Danielle Hunter has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Browns.

Texans WR Marvin Harrison Jr. has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Browns. Harrison was dealing with a hamstring injury and was limited in practice on Wednesday before missing practice on Thursday and Friday.
| Footballguys view: Harrison has been mostly a non-factor in the Texans' offense since they traded for him. Patient managers can keep him stashed and hope he turns things around, but you can probably feel safe releasing Harrison in most formats. |
Marvin Harrison Jr. player page
Texans DE Danielle Hunter has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Browns with a hamstring injury, according to the team's Friday injury report. The beat writer called it a "big loss for the Texans."

Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker is officially questionable for Sunday's game at Atlanta after sitting out Friday's practice. Walker tweaked his groin sometime this week, head coach Andy Reid said. Rookie RB Emmett Johnson will start if Walker can't play. Walker leads the league with 109.0 rushing yards per game, with 872 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns in eight games, plus 26 catches for 172 yards and four touchdowns.
| Footballguys view: As noted in an earlier write-up, Walker is no stranger to groin injuries. He missed a game due to one in 2022 and then played through another in 2023. With this one popping up late in the week, there's a bit more concern than normal. However, we'll probably have to wait until Sunday to know what's going on, so there's no reason to stress now. The good news is that the Chiefs play early, so fantasy managers will have a full pool of pivot options. If Walker is active, start him. If he can't go, rookie Emmett Johnson becomes a must-start option. Johnson has loaded his highlight reel early in his rookie season and has a desirable efficiency profile to match. He'd be a top-ten option in a projected high-scoring game against the Falcons. Check back in on Sunday morning for an update. |
Emmett Johnson player page
Titans RB Tyjae Spears (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Spears was a full participant in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Spears was a DNP at the start of the week. He logged a limited practice on Thursday. And Friday's full participation puts him on the trajectory we want to see. If he's active, he's little more than a desperation flex, with slightly more utility in PPR leagues than in standard. If he's not active, Tony Pollard becomes a must-start option, as he's been one of fantasy's most dominant running backs since Spears has been out. |
Tyjae Spears player page
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee/right elbow) was a full participant in practice on Friday. He has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes has been on the injury report every week this year due to his knee. The "elbow" inclusion this week came after he was awkwardly hit while attempting a pass. He was able to shake it off, return to the game, and then follow it up with a full week of practice. He can be started as a fringe QB1 this week in Atlanta. |
Patrick Mahomes II player page
Colts TE Mo Alie-Cox (groin) is listed as out on the Week 10 injury report. Mo Alie-Cox did not participate in Friday's practice.

Cardinals S Budda Baker said on Friday he is "happy to be here" after remaining with Arizona through Tuesday's trade deadline despite frequent rumors he could be dealt. "I was uncertain of what was going to happen, but I talked to (GM) Monti (Ossenfort), talked to (coach Mike) LaFleur, I talked to the guys, and realized what was happening," Baker said. He said defensive tweaks made about a month ago, including getting him into the box more often, have helped the unit improve, and the 30-year-old emphasized he believes he is still playing at a high level. One reason Baker was not moved, reportedly, was the organization's feeling that he represents the heart and soul of the team.

Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson was not spotted on the field at practice on Friday. Hockenson (wrist/chest) was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday. The reporter noted his absence 'would be a big' one for Sunday's game at Green Bay.
| Footballguys view: Looks like a full week of DNPs for Hockenson, which rarely leads to an active status. Second-year tight end Gavin Bartholomew saw a nice uptick in work when Hockenson was out earlier this season and should be the team's primary pass-catching tight end this week if Hockenson can't go. He's only worth a start in extremely deep leagues, but has some upside for desperate managers. Hockenson has looked fully recovered this season from the knee injury he suffered years ago. With Kirk Cousins expected to elevate the entire Vikings offense, Hockenson will hope to return soon and benefit from a better ecosystem. |
T.J. Hockenson player page
Saints RB Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers. He was upgraded to a full participant at Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: In addition to a full practice, Etienne was asked if he'd be ready to go, to which he replied, "I hope so. I definitely want to." Etienne hasn't played since Week 3. Upon his return, he's expected to be the Saints' lead back. Facing Carolina this week, Etienne will have a chance to face off against his little brother, Trevor, the Panthers' backup running back. |
Travis Etienne Jr. player page
Saints RB Alvin Kamara has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers. Kamara was listed as not injury related-rest and with a back issue on the injury report this week.
| Footballguys view: The Saints specifically noted Kamara's early-week DNP as "NIR-Rest, Back" rather than simply "Back," signaling the injury wasn't serious. Kamara has played through injuries seemingly every week in his age-31 season, but it hasn't stopped him from providing RB3 production in PPR leagues. With Travis Etienne Jr. potentially back this week, it puts a slight cap on Kamara's outlook. But his usage in the passing game can help desperate managers looking for an RB3 or flex in PPR formats. |
Alvin Kamara player page
Rams DE Myles Garrett is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Head coach Sean McVay expects Garrett to play.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said on Friday that WR Josh Downs is ready to make his Kansas City debut after his first week with the team. "I thought he did a nice job of what we asked him to do. He's a smart kid & he knows how to play," Reid said. "He worked into the things we asked him to do & I think he's ready to play in a game for us." The Colts traded Downs to the Chiefs on Tuesday for fourth- and fifth-round picks. Kansas City plays at Atlanta on Sunday in Week 10.
| Footballguys view: Downs will likely have a limited role in his Chiefs debut, but he'll have a chance to take over in a receiver room devoid of talent. Rashee Rice has looked like a shell of himself since returning from last year's knee injury. Xavier Worthy's Combine speed hasn't translated to the NFL field. The Chiefs traded for Downs because they desperately need someone to step up. Downs has upside, especially late in the seasons, but he's a very risky start in Week 10. |
Josh Downs player page
Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker did not practice on Friday because of groin tightness, head coach Andy Reid said. "We'll see how he feels through this afternoon & rehab," Reid said. "He was tight this morning."
| Footballguys view: Walker has a long injury history but has avoided injury so far this year. Throughout his NFL career, he's had two groin injuries. One in 2022 caused him to miss one game, and another in 2023 didn't keep him out of any games. This reporting is obviously concerning, but we'll wait for more information before panicking. |
Ken Walker III player page
Browns rookie WR Denzel Boston (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans. "We'll have to see how he progresses, but he's trending in the right direction," head coach Todd Monken said on Friday. Boston returned to practice Friday after missing Thursday's session.
| Footballguys view: Boston reportedly left Friday's practice in a walking boot, making this injury a bit more concerning than we initially anticipated. However, teams have been much more liberal with the use of boots lately, and this could be precautionary. And Monken's quote is positive. It's promising that Boston returned to practice, but we'll hope for an update before Sunday's kickoff. |
Denzel Boston player page
Falcons rookie WR Zachariah Branch has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Chiefs with a hamstring injury. It will be the second straight game Branch has missed.
| Footballguys view: Branch got some low-value touches near the line of scrimmage early in the season, but it didn't translate into much fantasy production. This Falcons offense focuses so heavily on Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts that it's hard to trust anyone else in fantasy lineups. |
Zachariah Branch player page
Cardinals TE Elijah Higgins and the team have agreed to a three-year extension worth up to $26.8 million, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Higgins has been the Cardinals' TE2 since they drafted him and has just started seeing more opportunities over the last few weeks. It's hard to justify stashing him outside of extremely deep leagues. But if Trey McBride were to miss a game, there's some theoretical contingent upside here. |
Elijah Higgins player page
Giants RB Devin Singletary got blown up by Commanders LB Sonny Styles on a blitz on the opening drive of Thursday's loss and played only three more snaps, one of them a kneel-down. His pass protection has been shaky the past two weeks, which the beat writer says eliminates the possibility of him being used as the third-down back.
Link to storyDevin Singletary player page
Panthers WR Xavier Legette (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Saints. Legette is in his practice window ahead of a possible activation from injured reserve. He was a limited participant and worked with the scout team this week.
| Footballguys view: The Panthers' offense is concentrated on Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker. Any scoring or big days outside of those two are sporadic. That pushes Legette pretty far off the fantasy radar. |
Xavier Legette player page
Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (groin) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Saints. Brooks remains in his practice window ahead of a possible activation from injured reserve. He was a limited participant and worked with the scout team this week.
| Footballguys view: Brooks still has a couple of weeks left in his 21-day window before the Panthers have to activate him. He logged two full practices to start this week, so he appears close. He's worth stashing in deep leagues, though expectations should be tempered given his lengthy injury history. |
Jonathon Brooks player page
Patriots QB Drake Maye (right shoulder) is off the injury report and is set to play in Sunday's game against the Lions in Madrid.
| Footballguys view: Maye has been on the injury report for most of the year with this right shoulder issue, but it hasn't kept him from being an elite fantasy option over the last month. Start him this week in what could be a shootout against the Lions. |
Drake Maye player page
Cowboys RB Israel Abanikanda will be the backup to RB Javonte Williams on Sunday against the 49ers, head coach Brian Schottenheimer said on Friday. RB Hunter Luepke will get more plays and potentially more touches.
| Footballguys view: Abanikanda is a good athlete and is still just 24. He got a little taste of action in 2023 with the Jets, but we haven't seen him since. Expect him to handle only a few touches as Williams dominates the backfield. But Abanikanda can be picked up in deep leagues with Tyler Goodson expected to miss a few weeks. Abanikanda is an injury away from a big opportunity on an explosive offense. |

Patriots TE Hunter Henry (foot) was limited in practice but has no injury designation for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Lions. Henry was questionable for last Sunday's game against the Packers and was active after practicing only on Friday that week.
| Footballguys view: Henry is a vet with a good understanding of his body and the offense he plays in. He doesn't need a full week of practice to play, and he's expected to go this week. A.J. Brown's expected return puts a slight cap on Henry's ceiling, but he's a solid touchdown-or-bust streaming option in Week 10. |
Hunter Henry player page
Browns rookie WR Denzel Boston (toe) returned to practice on Friday. Boston had been absent from practice on Thursday while dealing with the toe injury. The Browns host the Texans on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: We've reached the point where it's probably just best to start Boston, KC Concepcion, and Harold Fannin every week and hope for the best. The depth of pass-catchers leads to volatile production, but they all have sky-high weekly ceilings. If Boston can't go, the floors for Concepcion and Fannin both rise. If Boston is out there, he'll likely draw tough coverage from Derek Stingley, but he can make his fantasy day in one play, making him a strong WR2 option in fantasy lineups. |
Denzel Boston player page
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (knee) is questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Lions but has "a good chance to play." The Patriots listed the designation on their Friday injury report. Brown was limited in practice on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: That was the expectation when Brown logged a week of limited practices. But a limited role or chance of reinjury keeps him more in the WR3 range than where a fully healthy Brown would typically rank. |
A.J. Brown player page
Lions RB Sione Vaki (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Patriots. Vaki was a limited participant in practice on Friday. He was also questionable for last Sunday's game against the Dolphins with the ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Vaki quietly carved out a role in the Lions' backfield over the last few weeks, and his return to practice on Friday gives him a chance to play on Sunday. Not like you're ever benching Jahmyr Gibbs, but Vaki's inactive status could lead to an even larger workload for fantasy's RB1. If Vaki can't go, expect Jacob Saylors to complement Gibbs with a handful of touches. Either way, Vaki or Saylors probably won't garner enough work to produce any meaningful fantasy production. |
Sione Vaki player page
Lions QB Jared Goff (chest) has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots in Munich. Goff was a full participant in practice on Friday. He was limited on Wednesday before upgrading to full participation on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: No concern here after back-to-back full practices. Start Goff this week against a susceptible Bills defense as a QB1. |
Jared Goff player page
Texans WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (hamstring) was not practicing on Friday during the portion of practice open to the media. Houston plays at the Browns on Sunday in Week 10.
| Footballguys view: Harrison hasn't practiced this week and appears on track to miss Week 10. In Week 9's scoring frenzy, Harrison was one of the few receivers who couldn't find paydirt. There was hope that a trade to Houston would resuscitate his career, but we haven't seen it so far. Even if active, Harrison can't be trusted in any lineup. And in most leagues, he can be safely dropped to the waiver wire. |
Marvin Harrison Jr. player page
Texans DE Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) was not seen during the portion of Friday's practice open to the media. Anderson was added to the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday.
Link to storyWill Anderson Jr. player page
Texans RB David Montgomery was at practice for a second straight day on Friday. The veteran has missed the past month with a groin injury suffered against the Titans.
| Footballguys view: Montgomery returned to practice on Thursday and made another appearance on Friday. Woody Marks is dealing with a knee injury, so Montgomery is returning at the perfect time. Marks is expected to go, but an active Montgomery could help him shoulder the load. If Marks is out and Montgomery is active (unlikely), Montgomery can be started as an RB2 in fantasy. But if Marks is active, it'll be hard to trust Montgomery in any lineup. |
David Montgomery player page
Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Patriots in Germany. St. Brown has been dealing with a rib injury.
| Footballguys view: St. Brown is as tough as they come and has a long history of playing through injuries. The Lions play in Munich this week, with kickoff at 9:30 a.m. ET will require managers to wake up and check the inactive report. We expect St. Brown to play, but check back Sunday morning for an official update. |
Amon-Ra St. Brown player page
Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (groin) has had his practice statuses from earlier this week changed from "full" to "limited," a team spokesperson said on Friday. The change was made because Brooks took scout team reps while returning from injured reserve.
| Footballguys view: All signs point to Brooks making his return this Sunday, as the "downgrade" to an LP on Friday's report doesn't tell the full story. He can't be trusted in fantasy lineups, but he's worth stashing on deep benches, mostly as an injury-away option if anything happens to Chuba Hubbard. |
Jonathon Brooks player page
Texans RB Woody Marks is good to go for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Browns. Marks was "back at it" on Friday after dealing with knee soreness from hits over the past few weeks.
| Footballguys view: Marks' week of limited practice is a bit concerning, but he should be ready to go on Sunday against the Browns. He can be relied on as a high-floor RB2, although his ceiling has left much to be desired this year. |
Woody Marks player page
Texans RB Woody Marks is "back at it" on Friday after a knee injury kept him out of Thursday's practice. Marks has been dealing with knee soreness from hits taken over the past few weeks, which a league source described as residual soreness and "nothing structural." The Texans had held him out as a precaution and were taking a wait-and-see approach to his availability for Sunday's game at the Browns.
