Packers | Stenavich says Jacobs 'didn't play as much as he normally would' in return Wed Oct 28, 02:30 PM
Packers offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said on Wednesday that RB Josh Jacobs "didn't play as much as he normally would had he been here this whole time" in Sunday's loss to the Lions. "He's been out for a while. Getting him back in the swing of things," Stenavich said of Jacobs' workload. Jacobs was activated from exempt status on Saturday ahead of that game.
| Footballguys view: Jacobs is going to get more work as he continues to get back into football shape. We see him leading the team in touches from the backfield, and that makes him a borderline RB1 for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Patriots | A.J. Brown 'sometimes' still pushing through right high-ankle sprain Wed Oct 28, 02:08 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown said on Wednesday that he is sometimes still trying to get his explosiveness back since his right high-ankle sprain. "Yeah, sometimes. Sometimes I see it and sometimes I'm pushing through. But none of that stuff really matters. I'm out here, so...." Brown said.
| Footballguys view: Brown caught 3-of-6 targets for 48 yards in the Patriots' Week 7 loss to the Bears. He's not quite himself, and the chemistry he has with Drake Maye is a work in progress. Against the Dolphins on Sunday afternoon, we've got Brown in the WR2 range. Fantasy GMs won't be too confident, but they don't want to miss out if/when Brown has a breakout week. |

Vikings | Aaron Jones will miss Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 28, 02:03 PM
Vikings RB Aaron Jones will not practice on Wednesday, head coach Kevin O'Connell said. Jones aggravated his knee injury in Sunday's win over the Colts and was called day to day on Monday after an MRI. He had been playing through a sprained MCL since Week 2.

Colts | Jonathan Taylor has not requested a trade, per Shane Steichen Wed Oct 28, 01:50 PM
Colts RB Jonathan Taylor has not requested a trade, head coach Shane Steichen said on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Taylor does not need to request a move; teams should be circling around the Colts to see if they can add him via trade. With Quenton Nelson traded to the Seahawks on Tuesday, the floodgates could open as the Colts are sellers. Taylor is still a great back, and he could be a foundational player going forward. However, he could be seen as someone the Colts trade away to get more assets. |

Bills WR DJ Moore is set to return to the field on Wednesday, head coach Joe Brady said. "It will be nice to get him back on the football field today," Brady said.
| Footballguys view: Moore, who has been dealing with a shoulder injury, was inactive against the Raiders before the bye, and Brady said afterward that the "hope and intent" was for him to return after the bye week. |

Ravens | Rookie Adam Randall returns to practice, 21-day window opens Wed Oct 28, 01:13 PM
Ravens rookie RB Adam Randall returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day window to be activated from injured reserve. Randall was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return before the regular season. The fifth-round pick from Clemson, a converted wide receiver, played in two preseason games, totaling 17 carries for 71 yards and a touchdown plus four catches for 47 yards on six targets. Derrick Henry, Justice Hill, and Rasheen Ali lead the running back room.
| Footballguys view: Hill is the primary backup to Henry. Randall is a converted wide receiver who can be a threat on all three downs. When back on the active roster, Randall will be an option as the No. 3 back behind Hill and Henry. We appreciate him in dynasty formats. |

Chiefs | Harrison Butker will 'probably' kick in Week 8 despite Justin Tucker signing Wed Oct 28, 01:10 PM
Chiefs K Harrison Butker will "probably" handle the kicking duties for Sunday's Week 8 game at the Broncos. The Chiefs signed veteran K Justin Tucker to their practice squad on Wednesday, but he is unlikely to kick against Denver this week.

Commanders | Terry McLaurin placed on IR, Van Jefferson promoted from practice squad Wed Oct 28, 12:55 PM
The Commanders formally placed WR Terry McLaurin on injured reserve on Wednesday after he suffered a season-ending torn patellar tendon in a Week 6 loss to the 49ers. WR Van Jefferson was promoted from the practice squad in a corresponding move, chosen over rookie WR Jaden Bradley as a more veteran depth option. The beat writer expects WR Treylon Burks to man the X position and rookie WR Antonio Williams to see a significant increase in his snap count.
| Footballguys view: The move with McLaurin is now official, and it means he missed seven games last year and will miss 12 games this season. He's got a $34 million cap hit in 2027, but there is a potential out for the team after this year (which brings $25.5 million in dead cap). The Commanders will turn to Antonio Williams for some of the downfield work McLaurin would do. |

Commanders | Diggs held out Wednesday, rest day 'likely' weekly going forward Wed Oct 28, 12:36 PM
Commanders WR Stefon Diggs is being held out of practice on Wednesday but will be "full-go" on Thursday, head coach Dan Quinn said. Quinn said going forward this likely will be the case for Diggs each week, and that it was not related to the hand injury Diggs appeared to suffer against the 49ers.
| Footballguys view: It's what many veterans do around the league. We're just left to wonder what ailment Diggs is dealing with. He's out on Wednesday, but we're expecting full participation on Thursday. That means Diggs is good to go for the Week 8 game against the Eagles. We like him in the WR2/flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |

Giants | Skattebo says hamstring OK, but 'wait and see' when Giants return to practice Wed Oct 28, 11:41 AM
Giants RB Cam Skattebo indicated his hamstring was OK after Sunday's win over the Texans, and the team has its Week 8 bye to recover. With RB Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s surprise placement on IR on Tuesday, the beat writer's view is to 'wait and see where he's at' when the Giants return to practice next week; Skattebo missed chunks of time last offseason with a hamstring injury. The backfield was shaping up as an even split before Tracy left with a hamstring injury in the second quarter, with Skattebo at 14 snaps to Tracy's 11 at that point. As the game progressed, RB Devin Singletary took over as the third-down back while mixing in on early downs.

Ravens | Rashod Bateman named possible trade candidate, given 15% chance to be dealt Wed Oct 28, 09:32 AM
Ravens WR Rashod Bateman checked in at No. 18 on ESPN's list of the league's top 25 possible trade candidates ahead of the deadline, compiled by Matt Bowen and Jeremy Fowler. They estimated Bateman's chances of being traded at 15% and listed the Commanders and Chiefs as potential fits. "Bateman has long been a bit miscast in Baltimore," Fowler wrote, adding that "rookie Ja'Kobi Lane is well-positioned for WR2 status in Baltimore." Bateman has 266 receiving yards through seven games this season.

Bears | Ben Johnson says 'high likelihood' Sam Roush's rep count goes up with Kmet out Tue Oct 27, 05:25 PM
Bears rookie TE Sam Roush is expected to see more snaps with TE Cole Kmet out for the rest of the season after sustaining a knee injury in last Thursday's win over the Patriots. Roush is the only reserve tight end on the 53-man roster behind starter Colston Loveland. "We've been very pleased with the improvement that [Roush] has made over these first seven weeks, and so there's a high likelihood that his rep count is going to go up as a result of what's going on here," coach Ben Johnson said. Roush, a third-round pick out of Stanford, said, "I'll have to step up in the coming weeks, and I feel confident in my ability to do that."

49ers | Colts trading three-time Pro Bowl DT DeForest Buckner to 49ers Tue Oct 27, 04:43 PM
The Colts are trading DT DeForest Buckner to the 49ers. Buckner is a three-time Pro Bowler and is in his 11th NFL season.
| Footballguys view: Earlier on Tuesday, the Colts traded Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks. Buckner returns to the team that made him a 2016 first-round pick before dealing him to Indianapolis in 2020, adding some much-needed heft to the 49ers' defensive line. |

Packers WR Matthew Golden was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
| Footballguys view: It is the second straight day Golden was estimated as DNP after also being listed that way on Monday. Golden was hurt in the second quarter of Sunday's loss to the Lions but returned and finished the game, so there's reason for some optimism. The Packers will file their final injury report for Thursday night's game on Wednesday. |

Jaguars | Coen on Travis Hunter's snaps: 'We're not going to over-rotate to a good game' Tue Oct 27, 02:17 PM
Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter's snaps will not change dramatically after his best two-way game, head coach Liam Coen said on Monday. "Just keep chomping away at it," Coen said. "We're not going to over-rotate to a good game. There are a lot of games left in the season."
| Footballguys view: Hunter caught four passes for 59 yards and a touchdown and intercepted Texans QB C.J. Stroud in the end zone in the Week 6 loss to Houston, and Coen added that "last week you saw his impact and effect on games where he is playing more." It's going to take some time for fantasy investors to get a feel for how consistent Hunter's offensive opportunities might be. But with Brian Thomas Jr. struggling (and possibly being a trade candidate), proactively adding Hunter on a speculative basis makes sense. |

Giants | Tyrone Tracy Jr. headed to IR with hamstring injury, 'down four games' Tue Oct 27, 01:55 PM
Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. is being placed on injured reserve with the hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Texans, GM Joe Schoen told reporters during his bye-week press conference on Tuesday. Schoen said it is not a long-term injury, but Tracy will miss four games.
| Footballguys view: Cam Skattebo is dealing with a minor hamstring issue that is expected to heal over the off week. Assuming he's fully healthy, Skattebo could benefit from more work in the passing game, in addition to the slight bump in snaps that is also likely to come. Devin Singletary will also benefit. |

Bengals | Bengals place Erick All Jr. on IR, bring back TE Cam Grandy Tue Oct 27, 01:37 PM
The Bengals officially placed TE Erick All Jr. on injured reserve with a knee injury on Tuesday. Cincinnati brought back TE Cam Grandy to the 53-man roster from the Vikings' practice squad.
| Footballguys view: The team also placed rookie TE Josh Kattus on practice squad injured reserve and replaced him on the practice squad with TE Caden Prieskorn, a first-year player out of Ole Miss. The Bengals already put Tanner Hudson on injured reserve this season, so adding depth behind Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample was important. Of course, Gesicki is the lone fantasy-relevant option at the position here. |

Colts | Keenan Allen named among Colts players to watch before trade deadline Tue Oct 27, 12:44 PM
Colts WR Keenan Allen is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Allen has emerged as one of the Colts' most consistent offensive performers in recent weeks. He's been mentioned in reports suggesting the Bills would be interested. Allen is no longer the elite receiver he once was, but he is still a good veteran option and could be a safety net for Josh Allen. Stay tuned. |

Colts WR Josh Downs is among the Indianapolis names to watch ahead of the trade deadline. The Colts are willing to listen to offers on everyone after agreeing to trade G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: ESPN's Adam Schefter points to Downs, DeForest Buckner, and Grover Stewart as players who could potentially be on the move. Downs has fallen short of expectations this season, but that seems more due to overall circumstances than any shortcomings on his part. We'll see if he draws legitimate interest. |

Seahawks | Colts agree to trade eight-time Pro Bowl G Quenton Nelson to Seahawks Tue Oct 27, 12:37 PM
The Colts have agreed to trade eight-time Pro Bowl G Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks, a deal NFL Network's Ian Rapoport also reported on Tuesday. Nelson is on an expiring contract, and the Colts opted to get draft capital back now rather than risk losing him in free agency.
| Footballguys view: Seattle is poised to have five compensatory picks in 2027 and will also receive a third-round pick after executive Nolan Teasley became Minnesota's GM, flexibility that has allowed the team to be aggressive in the trade market. |
Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice Wednesday, LaFleur says Tue Oct 27, 01:08 AM
Cardinals rookie RB Jeremiyah Love will be back at practice on Wednesday, head coach Mike LaFleur said Monday. Love has missed the last two games with an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Love injured his right ankle in the preseason. He played through his left ankle injury, which he sustained in Week 4, before the Cardinals shut him down to let it heal. Bam Knight and Tyler Allgeier have replaced Love in the backfield. Love has 67 carries for 245 yards and a touchdown, and 11 catches for 36 yards and a touchdown. |

49ers | Christian McCaffrey has 'mild' hamstring strain, team 'pretty optimistic' post-bye Tue Oct 27, 01:07 AM
49ers RB Christian McCaffrey has a mild hamstring strain, head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday. The team believes McCaffrey will be fine coming out of the bye. "We're pretty optimistic," Shanahan said.
| Footballguys view: McCaffrey was hurt in Sunday's 29-20 loss to the Falcons, returned to the field after warming up before the third quarter, and said after the game, "I know I'll be alright." We'll be watching for more, but the real clarity will come when San Francisco hits the field to begin their Week 9 preparations. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley doesn't expect back injury to keep him out, hamstring 'came out fine' Tue Oct 27, 12:33 AM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley said his back flared up on his first run of Monday's loss to the Cowboys, noting that sometimes you overcompensate when dealing with a different injury. Barkley said his hamstring came out fine and he doesn't expect the back to keep him out. "Just can't find a way to finish the game. But yeah, banged up a little bit," Barkley said.
| Footballguys view: Barkley returned from a two-game absence only to be limited -- he spent time in the medical tent, on the exercise bike, and stretching on the sidelines. Still, he was effective. Barkley had seven carries for 62 yards and a touchdown and added two receptions for nine yards before the back injury sidelined him. Barkley became the first starter in the last 20 seasons to play at least nine offensive snaps in a game and get a touch on all of them. The Eagles play the Commanders in Week 8. We'll have more on Barkley in coming days. |

Madson added that De'Zhaun Stribling and Demarcus Robinson could return soon as well. |
