    Chargers OC Mike McDaniel said the offense “sustained a mild setback” with RB Keaton Mitchell.

    This comes on the heels of a missed session on Sunday for the fourth-year back. The team has yet to release a complete injury update for Mitchell after failing to disclose an injury status the previous day, leaving fantasy managers stuck in limbo with less than three weeks until the start of the regular season. “We sustained a mild setback with Keaton, but realistically, that’s a position that you’re always wanting to have three, and I like what our young guys are doing to press into that group,” McDaniel said Monday. It is difficult to read too far into McDaniel’s remarks without further context, keeping Mitchell a strong streaming option in shallow leagues, for the time being.

    Steelers declared RB Rico Dowdle, QB Will Howard, QB Drew Allar, CB Jamel Dean, RB Eli Heidenreich, CB Terell Smith, and DT Kevin Jobity Jr. inactive for Week 5 against the Colts.

    It was reported earlier in the day that Dowdle was unlikely to suit up due to his ongoing foot injury, so this doesn’t come as a major surprise. We could be looking at a big game for Jaylen Warren against an underperforming Colts defense. With Keenan Allen back for the Colts, the injury to Jamel Dean is a bit of a blow to this Pittsburgh secondary.

    Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) is active for Week 5 against the Patriots.

    Jeanty will play through his foot and ankle injuries against New England. It wouldn’t be surprising if he cedes some backfield work to a healthy and much more explosive Mike Washington, however. Jeanty should be considered a top-24 option this week while Washington is a desperation flex. Raiders declared WR Jalen Nailor, QB Aidan O’Connell, S Tristin McCollum, RB Roman Hemby, S Dalton Johnson, OL Trey Zuhn, and DT JJ Pegues inactive against the Patriots.

    Giants declared S Jason Pinnock, RB Devin Singletary, CB Nikko Reed, DT Bobby Jamison-Travis, OT J.C. Davis, and QB Jake Haener inactive for Week 5 against the Commanders.

    Singletary is once again a healthy scratch as the Giants will roll with Cam Skattebo, Najee Harris, and Tyrone Tracy as their top three backs. J.J. McCarthy will serve as the QB2 behind Jameis Winston in what figures to be a messy game in the elements in Washington this afternoon.

    Texans declared TE Marlin Klein, CB Collin Wright, DE Chris Braswell, LB Aiden Fisher, OG Febechi Nwaiwu and OT Nate Thomas inactive for Houston’s Week 5 game against the Titans.

    The Texans had five questionable players, including three offensive linemen with illnesses. All three of those linemen will play, and Kayden McDonald and M.J. Stewart were activated off injured reserve to make their season debuts as well as the Texans try to avoid an 0-5 start.

    Keenan Allen (groin) is active for Week 5 against the Steelers

    Allen got in a full practice on Friday, so he seemed to be trending towards being active, but now we know for sure. With Jamel Dean out this week and Joey Porter Jr. now in Dallas, the Colts’ passing game gets a slight bump, which is good news for Daniel Jones, who really needs to get back on track. The Colts inactives are: LB Jaylon Carlies, WR Ashton Dulin, QB Riley Leonard, WR Darius Slayton, and G Dalton Tucker.

    Alvin Kamara (back) is active for Week 5 against the Vikings.

    Kamara will split work with Kendre Miller and C.J. Donaldson. He projects to lead the group in carries and targets, giving him some RB3 potential. Inactive for the Saints are EDGE Anfernee Jennings, S Mike Reid, LB Kaden Elliss, OL Jeremiah Wright, DL Vernon Broughton, and DL Nathan Shepherd.
