Penei Sewell

DET Tackle #58

Lions RT Penei Sewell (ankle) is questionable for Week 2 against the Bucs.

Sewell had his ankle rolled on in the Lions’ Week 1 win over the Rams. He was held out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday this week before being upgraded to a limited session on Friday. Head coach Dan Campbell told reporters he wasn’t sure if Sewell would be able to play and that they are trying to be smart about his injury. The All-Pro right tackle is truly questionable for Week 2. Dan Skipper would likely be the next man up if Sewell can’t go.
Dalton Schultz

HOU Tight End #86

Texans TE Dalton Schultz (ankle) was upgraded to “full” for Friday’s practice.

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports “No injury designation for Texans veteran tight end Dalton Schultz (minor sprained ankle), who had full practice Friday in his return after being held out Wednesday and Thursday for precautionary reasons.” Schultz is good to go for the Texans’ Sunday Night Football game against the Bears.
Jameson Williams

DET Wide Receiver #9

Lions WR Jameson Williams (ankle) is questionable for Week 2 against the Bucs.

Williams seemingly suffered the injury when he took a shot to the lower leg versus the Rams in Week 1. He had his ankle taped up but returned without any issues. Williams was limited in practice for all three sessions this week. He appears to be on the right side of questionable heading into the weekend, but fantasy managers will want to check the Lions’ inactives 90 minutes before kickoff to be sure. If Wiliams is active, he will sit on the WR2/3 border in a potential shootout with the Bucs.
Josh Jacobs

GB Running Back #8

Josh Jacobs (back) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 2 against the Colts.

Jacobs was limited in practice earlier in the week, but his back issue never appeared to be serious. Being removed from the injury report entirely suggests he is good to go for Week 2. With Malik Willis looking like the favorite to start for Green Bay, Jacobs will see plenty of work as Matt LaFleur attempts to hide his quarterback. Jacobs is a volume-based RB1 heading into Sunday.
Jayden Reed

GB Wide Receiver #11

Jayden Reed (calf/shin) is questionable for Week 2 against the Colts.

Reed missed one practice last week because of the calf issue but was cleared from the injury report by the end of the week. He didn’t appear on this week’s injury report until Friday when he was limited in practice. It’s a slightly concerning development, but the Packers may just be being cautious with one of their young receivers. The bigger concern with Reed is his quarterback situation. Jordan Love (knee) is questionable and Malik Willis looks likely to draw the start. Despite going for 171 total yards in Week 1, Reed would rank as a fantasy WR3 if he suits up but Love doesn’t.
Jordan Love

GB Quarterback #10

Jordan Love (knee) is questionable for Week 2 against the Colts.

Head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters earlier in the week that the door was open for Love to play on Sunday. He then reiterated the sentiment today, saying Love is getting better every day and, “He’s doing good.” It still seems far-fetched for Love, who is dealing with an MCL sprain, to play this week. All reports on the situation have suggested he will miss multiple weeks. In the end, this could be an effort to force the Colts to prepare for Love, only for Malik Willis to predictably draw the start. Fantasy managers should still have a contingency plan in place given Love’s risk of being ruled out.
Malik Nabers

NYG Wide Receiver #1

Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) was upgraded to “full” for Friday’s practice.

Nabers is good to go for the Giants’ Week 2 game against the Commanders and their dismal secondary. Fantasy managers should start him with complete confidence in the can’t-miss matchup. Giants coaches appear to have handled the situation very responsibly, which bodes positively for Nabers’ season-long outlook.
Joey Bosa

LAC Linebacker #97

Chargers EDGE Joey Bosa (back) is questionable for Week 2 against the Panthers.

Bosa was listed as limited for Wednesday’s practice but was then downgraded to a DNP on Thursday. The Athletic’s Daniel Popper noted that Bosa was working off to the side, not in uniform, for Friday’s practice. It sounds like the oft-injured defender is on the wrong side of questionable for Week 2, though his status is still up in the air. Even without Bosa, the Chargers should be able to contain Bryce Young, who is coming off a dreadful Week 1 versus the Saints. Cornerback Ja’sir Taylor is also listed as questionable.
Jordan Addison

MIN Wide Receiver #3

Vikings WR Jordan Addison (ankle) will not play in Week 2 against the 49ers.

Addison’s second NFL season is off to a brutal start, having already sprained both ankles. Jalen Nailor can be deployed as a deep-league flex option, though the third-year receiver remains a largely unproven player.
Joshua Palmer

LAC Wide Receiver #5

Chargers WR Joshua Palmer (knee) is questionable for Week 2 against the Panthers.

Palmer was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday before being listed as questionable on Friday, presumably after another limited session. Palmer was a mainstay in the Chargers’ receiver rotation last week before being ejected at the top of the fourth quarter. He would rank as a WR4 if active. Rookie Brenden Rice was a healthy scratch in Week 1 but could make the gameday roster if Palmer can’t suit up.
