Packers | Savion Williams questionable, must be activated from IR to play vs. Cowboys Fri Oct 16, 03:56 PM
Packers WR Savion Williams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Cowboys. Williams is on injured reserve and must be added to the active roster to play; he has practiced in a limited capacity since the Packers opened his 21-day practice window on Oct. 7. Green Bay is thin at wideout with Skyy Moore ruled out and Jayden Reed's season over due to a neck injury. "I think where he's grown the most is his route-running ability.

Asked whether the Giants' fumbling issues could get to a point where he would need to make adjustments, head coach John Harbaugh said, "Yes, there is a point." Asked if the Giants have reached that point, Harbaugh said, "We'll see. We'll find out."

Saints | Alvin Kamara questionable for Week 6 against Giants Fri Oct 16, 02:02 PM
Saints RB Alvin Kamara (back) is questionable to play in Sunday's Week 6 game against the Giants. Kamara played through the back injury against the Vikings last Sunday, finishing with 12 yards on three carries in the loss.
| Footballguys view: Kamara showed some early-season burst after returning from a preseason MCL sprain. But this back injury seemed to completely zap his explosiveness last week. There was hope Kamara could be useful in PPR leagues while Travis Etienne is on IR, but nothing from last week suggests a strong performance, and a Friday questionable tag only adds to the uncertainty. Desperate managers can plug Kamara in at flex, but you should find a better option if possible. |

Saints | Chris Olave questionable for Sunday against Giants Fri Oct 16, 02:02 PM
Saints WR Chris Olave (illness) is questionable to play in Sunday's Week 6 game against the Giants. Olave was among three Saints players who were sick on Wednesday and was not seen at practice again on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: A sickness was reported to be spreading through the Saints' locker room before last week's kickoff, and Olave seems to have caught it. After missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday, he returned Friday, albeit in a limited capacity. He's trending toward playing, but check back Sunday morning to confirm. |

Browns | Dylan Sampson to remain on IR, out Sunday vs. Ravens Fri Oct 16, 01:35 PM
Browns RB Dylan Sampson (knee) will remain on injured reserve and is out for Sunday's game against the Ravens, head coach Todd Monken said on Friday. Sampson was designated to return earlier this week and has practiced for the first time since injuring his knee in the season opener.
| Footballguys view: Sampson logged a week of practice and is trending in the right direction. He won't suit up this week but will have a chance to return next week against the Titans, where he can be a valuable RB3 in PPR leagues. |

Cardinals | Jeremiyah Love ruled out vs. Rams, Tyler Allgeier to start Fri Oct 16, 01:33 PM
Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (left ankle) will not play Sunday against the Rams, coach Mike LaFleur said on Friday. RB Tyler Allgeier will start, with RB Bam Knight as the backup, and the Cardinals are expected to elevate RB Evan Hull from the practice squad as a third option. LaFleur said earlier in the week that getting the rookie healthy was "vital." Love, who sprained his right ankle in his only preseason game, played against the Lions last week, gaining 22 yards on 12 carries, and was held out of practice this week.
| Footballguys view: LeFleur was oddly hesitant when asked if Love would be placed on IR. Although he technically answered, "No," the pause beforehand carried weight. After Week 4's loss, Love notoriously said, "This is going to be the longest season of my life." He managed just 1.8 yards per carry last week and missed this week's practice and subsequent game. A quick reset could help the young running back, who has clearly been managing his injured ankle. In his absence, expect Tyler Allgeier to carry the ball most of the time. Bam Knight could work in on passing downs. |

Patriots | A.J. Brown questionable for Sunday vs. Jets Fri Oct 16, 01:32 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, head coach Mike Vrabel said on Friday. Brown was on the field as Friday's practice got underway.
| Footballguys view: Brown was initially expected to miss about six weeks, but he seems on track to return immediately following his four-week IR stint. The Patriots, missing Mack Hollins, are desperate for receiver help. Brown may not be 100 percent in this matchup, but fantasy managers who have been waiting to put him in their lineups can use him as a WR2 this week against the Jets. |

Ravens | Tyler Huntley to start at Browns, Ravens 'won't bat an eye' Fri Oct 16, 01:30 PM
Ravens QB Tyler Huntley will start Sunday at the Browns, and head coach Jesse Minter said on Friday that the team "won't bat an eye" with Huntley under center. Huntley threw for 201 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday's win over the Falcons.

Colts | Steichen on releasing Darius Slayton: 'Ultimately, it just didn't work out' Fri Oct 16, 01:30 PM
Colts head coach Shane Steichen addressed the release of WR Darius Slayton on Friday. "He had some good weeks in practice. Ultimately, it just didn't work out. And I think those (situations) happen," Steichen said. "I got a lot of respect for him, what he's done in this league. And I wish him the best going forward."
| Footballguys view: If Slayton can't crack the Colts' barren roster, it could be the end of his road. The Colts have one of the league's worst receiver rooms and will likely seek extra firepower as the trade deadline nears. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson ruled out for Week 6 at Cleveland Fri Oct 16, 01:24 PM
The Ravens ruled out QB Lamar Jackson for Sunday's game at Cleveland because of his ankle injury. Jackson missed practice on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. QB Tyler Huntley is likely to start again in his place.
| Footballguys view: No shock here, as Jackson missed last week's game and all week of practice. Tyler Huntley will start in his spot and has high-end QB2 usage and is a viable streamer, even in two-quarterback leagues. |
Lamar Jackson player page
Browns | Carson Schwesinger questionable for Sunday vs. Ravens Fri Oct 16, 01:22 PM

Browns | KC Concepcion clears concussion protocol, will play Sunday vs. Ravens Fri Oct 16, 01:22 PM
Browns rookie WR KC Concepcion has cleared the concussion protocol and will play in Sunday's Week 6 game against the Ravens. Concepcion carries no game status for the matchup.
| Footballguys view: Concussion protocol typically gives a red or green light on a player's availability. With Concepcion cleared, he'll be out there Sunday with no limitations. He's taken a backseat to fellow rookie Denzel Boston, but still has usage as a WR3, especially in PPR leagues. |
KC Concepcion Jr. player page
Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson not ruled out for Sunday, Patriots to 'continue to evaluate' Fri Oct 16, 01:22 PM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) was not ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, head coach Mike Vrabel said on Friday. Vrabel said the team will continue to evaluate Henderson, who was limited at practice on Thursday. Henderson suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 5.
| Footballguys view: There's something mildly fishy happening here. Early-week reports said that Henderson suffered a high ankle sprain and would likely miss a few weeks. He returned to practice at the start of the week and has returned every day since. The team is firm in their stance that Henderson's MRI showed a high ankle sprain, but Henderson looks fine in clips circulating from practice. If he's active, some managers may not have a choice but to start him. While he normally ranks as a back-end RB2, he's more of a borderline RB3 given this week's injury uncertainty. |
TreVeyon Henderson player page
Browns | Quinshon Judkins questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens Fri Oct 16, 01:19 PM
Browns RB Quinshon Judkins is questionable for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Ravens. Judkins returned to practice on Friday after not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday.
| Footballguys view: After not practicing at the start of the week, Judkins returned to the field on Friday. The team will likely wait to see how he's feeling after practice before declaring him active or inactive for Sunday's game. The Browns-Ravens game kicks off early Sunday, so if Judkins can't go, fantasy managers will have plenty of pivot options. If he's active, he'll be a shaky RB3 this week with limited practice. |

Raiders | Jalen Nailor out of the red jersey at Friday practice Fri Oct 16, 01:19 PM
Raiders WR Jalen Nailor, who has been in the concussion protocol, was out of the red jersey at practice on Friday. Las Vegas' receiving corps "could be adding reinforcements," with WR Dont'e Thornton Jr. also practicing again.
| Footballguys view: A DNP-to-LP-to-FP progression is what we like to see for a guy working through concussion protocol. Nailor seems on track to play this week. That said, he has just 52 receiving yards through four games. He's taken a clear backseat to Tre Tucker. The Bills are a good matchup, and desperate managers might be eyeballing Nailor. He could score a touchdown, but you probably have better options for your fantasy lineup. |

Falcons | Michael Penix Jr. off injury report, 'good to go' vs. Bears Fri Oct 16, 01:13 PM
Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. (ribs) is off the injury report and good to go for Sunday's game against the Bears. Penix was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Penix exited late in last week's game after taking a shot to the ribs. Tua Tagovailoa came in and quickly ended the game with a horrific interception. Falcons fans will hope that's the last time they'll see Tagovailoa this season. Penix isn't much of a rusher, so this injury shouldn't impact his fantasy projection. He'll have a great matchup against a Bears secondary that's been getting gashed all year. He sneaks into the streamer discussion this week for managers with quarterbacks on bye. |

Falcons | Drake London limited in Friday's practice Fri Oct 16, 01:11 PM
Falcons WR Drake London was limited in practice on Friday with a hip injury. LB Divine Deablo (hamstring), OT Jake Matthews (groin) and DE Za'Darius Smith (neck) were also limited.
| Footballguys view: London wasn't on Wednesday's or Thursday's injury reports, so Friday's addition isn't worth ignoring. London has been on fire since Michael Penix Jr. returned, and a matchup against a pedestrian Bears secondary should set him up for a big game. We'll keep an eye out for more information. A limited practice is better than a DNP, but we'll keep our ear to the street before we can accurately assess what's happening here. |

Seahawks | Macdonald expects Jadarian Price return 'sooner-rather-than-later' after Week 7 Fri Oct 16, 12:58 PM
Seahawks RB Jadarian Price must miss at least one more game while on injured reserve, but head coach Mike Macdonald offered an encouraging update on Friday. "We should be looking at a sooner-rather-than-later return after this (upcoming) game," Macdonald said. Price went on IR with an aggravated chest injury on October 3, and Seattle's next game is Week 7 against the Chiefs.
| Footballguys view: The Seahawks haven't been able to get much going on the ground with a corps of Emanuel Wilson, George Holani, and Velus Jones Jr. Zach Charbonnet is back at practice, and Price could return soon. That one-two punch in the backfield could help the Seahawks get back on track as they suffer from their current Super Bowl hangover. Price, this year's first-round pick, looked good, despite some ball-security issues. He'll be the lightning to Charbonnet's thunder, and both should provide fantasy utility once healthy. |
