Jaguars | Lawrence throws for 331 yards, two touchdowns in win over Eagles Sun Oct 11, 01:16 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence completed 24 of 39 passes for 331 yards with 2 touchdowns and 1 interception and added 3 times for 25 yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He was projected for 17.5 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 22.7.
| Footballguys view: The Jaguars won this game thanks to a heroic kick return by Ameer Abdullah with eight seconds left to the Philadelphia side of the field to set up a 57 yard game-winning field goal by Cam Little after Jake Elliott had just hit what looked like a game-winning field goal. The game could have been easier for the Jaguars and bigger for the fantasy output of Lawrence and this offense, but the team was stopped on fourth down and goal and twice came away with no points after having first and goal at the one on both drives. Lawrence ended up being a good start against the tough Eagles defense thanks to two outstanding plays on touchdown catches by Parker Washington. Consider Lawrence a high floor play against the beleaguered Texans defense next week. |

Commanders | Jayden Daniels to wear 'much larger brace' on left elbow, offense to adjust Sun Oct 11, 12:28 PM
Commanders QB Jayden Daniels will wear a much larger brace on his left elbow on Sunday than the one he wore last year. Daniels has had several practices to get comfortable with it, and the Commanders feel it greatly decreases the chances of the elbow being re-injured. Some things will be done differently offensively because of the elbow.

Eagles | Will Shipley ruled out vs. Jaguars, Dameon Pierce 'the top option' Sun Oct 11, 11:42 AM
Eagles RB Will Shipley has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London after suffering a foot injury. The Eagles are down to two running backs who started the week on the practice squad, RB Dameon Pierce and RB Carson Steele, with Pierce "the top option." Shipley had been expected to lead the backfield without RB Saquon Barkley.
| Footballguys view: Shipley scored before leaving the game so that he wasn't a complete loss as a what-the-heck flex. Pierce managed 14 yards on 11 carries and -2 yards and two receptions, so even if he gets the start against the Panthers next week, he's a desperation play. |

Commanders | Van Jefferson elevated with Diggs out, McLaurin questionable Sat Oct 10, 04:08 PM
The Commanders elevated WR Van Jefferson from the practice squad on Saturday. The move comes with WR Stefon Diggs out and WR Terry McLaurin questionable for Sunday's Week 5 game against the Giants.
| Footballguys view: Rookie Antonio Williams could be in line for a large role in the Commanders' passing attack. We've got him in the WR4 range, but the upside is there for him to do much more with all the injuries in their wide receiver room. McLaurin has been called a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Giants. Stay tuned. |

Raiders | Raiders elevate RB Roman Hemby with Ashton Jeanty questionable Sat Oct 10, 04:07 PM
The Raiders elevated rookie RB Roman Hemby from the practice squad on Saturday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported. The move comes with Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty questionable for Sunday's game at New England because of foot and ankle injuries.
| Footballguys view: Jeanty's Fantasy GMs need to keep an eye out here. Jeanty was limited in Thursday's practice and missed Friday's practice. Mike Washington Jr. is in line for a large workload if Jeanty is declared out. Fantasy GMs should have already been stashing him, and if he's out there on your waiver wire, then feel free to pick him up. |

Packers | Chris Brooks placed on injured reserve Sat Oct 10, 04:01 PM
The Packers placed RB Chris Brooks (ankle) on injured reserve on Saturday. Brooks had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears after missing practice all week, and the Packers signed RB Pierre Strong Jr. from the practice squad on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Brooks is out of action, meaning the Packers will piece together an RBBC with MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson, and Strong. We should see Strong as the primary pass-catching back from that group. Lloyd projects as an RB3/flex, Johnson as an RB4/deep flex, and Strong as a 'what the heck' flex in PPR formats. |

Patriots | A.J. Brown nearing return, could be back vs. Jets or wait until Week 7 Sat Oct 10, 04:00 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown, on injured reserve with a high-ankle sprain suffered in the season opener in Seattle, is eligible to return in Week 6.
| Footballguys view: Brown has been spotted in the Patriots locker room this week as the team prepares to ramp him up to speed. The Patriots could get him back next week vs. the Jets, but with a Thursday Night Football game in Chicago the following week, the team might wait until Week 7 to avoid playing two games in five days. Stay tuned. |

Patriots | Mack Hollins to IR, Efton Chism III likely gets 'bulk of the work' as WR3 Sat Oct 10, 04:00 PM
The Patriots placed WR Mack Hollins (calf) on injured reserve on Saturday, meaning he will miss at least four games. Hollins, the team's current leading receiver, suffered an apparent non-contact calf injury running a route in the third quarter of last Sunday's win over the Bills. WR Efton Chism III replaced Hollins in the second half of that game, catching a 19-yard pass and the game-winning touchdown, and will likely get the bulk of the work as the third receiver alongside Romeo Doubs and DeMario Douglas, with Kyle Williams mixing in.
| Footballguys view: Chism is not Cooper Kupp, but like Kupp, he has run-after-the-catch ability and played collegiately at Eastern Washington (on that red turf). He's a receiver who can be trusted to move the chains because of his reliable hands and ability to wiggle for extra yards. We like Chism as a 'what the heck' flex in his current role. |

Steelers | Lew Nichols elevated, suggesting Rico Dowdle out again vs. Colts? Sat Oct 10, 03:49 PM
The Steelers elevated RB Lew Nichols from the practice squad on Saturday for Sunday's game against the Colts, a move that suggests RB Rico Dowdle (toe) will be out for another week. Dowdle was listed as questionable after a week of limited practices. Pittsburgh also elevated WR Brandon Smith and re-signed DB Doneiko Slaughter to the active roster from the practice squad with WR Michael Pittman Jr. going to injured reserve.
| Footballguys view: It's an interesting note considering Dowdle was limited all week in practice. Jaylen Warren is in line for a sizable workload against the Colts, making him an RB1 for Fantasy GMs. If Dowdle does play, it dings Warren slightly, and Dowdle then becomes a 'what the heck' flex candidate. |

Vikings | Vikings elevating Odell Beckham Jr. for Sunday; WR has 'quickly picked up' offense Sat Oct 10, 03:44 PM
The Vikings are elevating WR Odell Beckham Jr. to the active roster for Sunday's game at the Saints. Beckham has quickly picked up Minnesota's offense and has developed a good connection with QB Kyler Murray, according to sources. Beckham, who grew up in New Orleans, signed with the Vikings' practice squad on Wednesday after his release by the Giants.
| Footballguys view: Beckham quickly picked up the offense, not only because of his connection with Murray, but also because he's been reunited with Kevin O'Connell. The two worked together when they were with the Rams years ago. Beckham is not the player he used to be, but the Vikings are looking for playmakers. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports Justin Jefferson (ankle) plans to play in Week 5 against the Saints, but the team "has to see how he feels on Saturday." No word yet on Jefferson's status, so stay tuned here. Jordan Addison is also questionable, so Beckham's elevation might be due to either his or Jefferson's status. |

Steelers | Michael Pittman Jr. headed to injured reserve, out at least four games Sat Oct 10, 03:16 PM
Steelers WR Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) will be placed on injured reserve, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported on Saturday. Pittman will miss at least four games.
| Footballguys view: He had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts after missing practice this week. Pittman has been disappointing so far this year with the Steelers with only seven catches for 89 yards in three games. Without Pittman, the Steelers once again turn to Roman Wilson. He's a flex consideration with his current role in the passing game. Rookie Germie Bernard should get more work as well. |

Skyler Bell to make NFL debut, take reps with Joshua Palmer ruled out Sat Oct 10, 02:07 PM
Bills rookie WR Skyler Bell will be active and "play a role" in his NFL debut Monday night against the Rams, head coach Joe Brady said on Saturday. Bell, a fourth-round pick, is expected to play many of WR Joshua Palmer's snaps, and possibly more if WR DJ Moore (shoulder) cannot play. Palmer has been ruled out after he "twisted up" in practice and is undergoing imaging.
| Footballguys view: Bell dealt with a groin injury for most of August, and now he's set to make his regular-season debut. The Bills' fourth-round rookie did flash briefly in the preseason (mainly on crossing routes), so we're excited to see him out there for the first time when the games count. He set records in college at UConn, and Bell's game is all about run-after-the-catch ability. We love him in dynasty formats, and now redraft GMs need to keep him on waiver-wire speed dial just in case he pops. |

Bills | DJ Moore questionable for Monday night at Rams Sat Oct 10, 01:56 PM
Bills WR DJ Moore is questionable for Monday's game against the Rams. Moore has a shoulder injury; he missed practice Thursday and Friday before returning to the practice field on Saturday.
| Footballguys view: Moore was on the practice field at the start of Saturday's session, and he was wearing a red non-contact jersey. We'll see if the limited session is enough to get him ready for a huge game against the Rams on Monday night. Fantasy GMs should have other plans ready just in case. With the game being the finale of Week 5, you're likely to be starting somebody else since Moore seems to be on the wrong side of questionable. |
