    Raiders waived RB Roman Hemby.

    Fresh off a national championship with the Hoosiers, Hemby was a “name” UDFA but couldn’t crack the Raiders’ suddenly deep backfield even after Ashton Jeanty’s ankle injury. He will be a candidate for the practice squad. Also waived/released by the Raiders were QB Jacob Clark, DT Brandon Cleveland, OL Braeden Daniels, LS Tyler Duzansky, FB Patrick Gurd, EDGE Jahfari Harvey, OT Niklas Henning, WR Shedrick Jackson, OT Isaish Jatta, S Devin Lafayette, DT Treven Ma’ae, K Kansei Matsuzawa, T Kamar Missouri, CB Caleb Offord, CB Devyn Perkins, C Will Putnam, DE Cian Slone, LB Xavian Sorey, DT Gary Smith, CB Greedy Vance, OT Dalton Wagner, WR E.J. Williams Jr., WR Phillip Dorsett, WR Brandon Johnson, LB Buddy Johnson, LB Cameron McGrone, TE Chris Myarick, RB Dare Ogunbowale, TE Albert Okwuegbunam, LB Segun Olubi and WR Deven Thompkins.
Defense costs Cowboys again vs. UDFA QB Daniels
Dan Patrick recaps the TNF action that saw the Buccaneers beat the Cowboys in Arlington, where the offense sputtered and shoddy defense cost the home team once again while facing UDFA rookie QB Jalon Daniels.

    Part of Indiana’s title-winning transfer army, Hemby (6'0/207) spent four seasons at Maryland before joining the Hoosiers for their 2025 run, earning third-team All-Big Ten honors in his final collegiate campaign. He was a prolific dual-threat starter for three seasons at Maryland, racking up 110 receptions in the role, before shifting to more of a run-centric role at Indiana. Across the Hoosiers’ full 2025, he went 230/1,118/7 as a rusher and 17/166/0 as a receiver. Hemby has a slightly thin frame. Both the NFL’s Lance Zierlein and The Athletic’s Dane Brugler compliment Hemby’s initial burst and hard-charging style, while slapping a needs-improvement label on his pass protection decision-making

    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that Terry McLaurin (hamstring) will “most likely” be a game-time decision for Week 5 against the Giants.

    Keep it locked to Rotoworld, folks. Hopefully, we get word on McLaurin’s status on Saturday, but it appears as though we may have to wait until Sunday morning. Fowler adds that rookie WR Antonio Williams “could be a factor in the passing game regardless of whether McLaurin plays.”

    Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Seattle’s Week 6 Thursday Night Football game against the Broncos makes Zach Charbonnet’s (knee) ramp-up “tricky.”

    Charbonnet is on schedule in his rehab program and “will be ready to ramp up his work next week.” Unfortunately, the Seahawks will have scaled-down practices as they prepare for their Thursday Night Football game. It sounds like Charbonnet is close to returning, but team doctors might want to see how his knee responds to a full week or practicing before clearing him. A condensed practice week indeed makes that tricky. Stay tuned.

    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that the Ravens “do not know” whether Lamar Jackson (ankle) will play in Week 6 against the Browns.

    Earlier this week, Rapoport said Jackson had an “outside chance” of suiting up in Week 5 against the Falcons, but it sounds like the situation is a little more fluid than expected. With Tyler Huntley under center, the Ravens’ pass-catching corps takes a small hit, though Zay Flowers remains a must-start.

    Colby Parkinson (knee/shoulder) practiced in full on Friday.

    Parkinson is unlikely to be startable as a TE1 if he plays on Monday night, but his return will likely reduce Tyler Higbee’s snap share. Higbee has been TE1-viable in each of the last two weeks.

    Aaron Donald (back) practiced in full on Friday.

    This is a good sign for Donald. Meanwhile, CB Jaylen Watson (shoulder) remained limited and star S Quentin Lake (hip) remained sidelined. Watson starts in the No. 2 perimeter cornerback role, while Lake serves as the primary nickel cornerback and part-time safety. Missing either player would be notable.

    Joshua Palmer (shoulder) was added to the injury report on Friday.

    Palmer seemingly injured his shoulder in practice today. The Bills may already be without WR DJ Moore (shoulder) on Monday night. While Palmer is not relevant in 12-team leagues, his potential absence would improve Keon Coleman’s stock.

    DJ Moore (shoulder) did not practice on Friday.

    The Bills’ No. 1 wide receiver is on the wrong side of questionable for his team’s Monday Night Football game against the Rams. Moore sprained the AC joint in his left shoulder in Week 2. He aggravated it in Week 4 with a hard fall and was unable to continue playing. If active, Moore will be a risk-reward WR2.

    49ers RB Kaelon Black (illness) is not on the final injury report for Week 5 against the Seahawks.

    Black was limited on Wednesday, but upgraded to full participation on Thursday and Friday. There are no concerns about his ability to handle backup duties against the Seahawks this week. That said, he has just 10 carries over the last two weeks and cannot be started in 12-team FLEX spots.

    Isaiah Likely (knee/groin) is not on the final injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Commanders.

    The Giants’ passing offense is tethered to Jameis Winston’s scattershot arm, but Likely has a favorable matchup against the Commanders’ defense this week. He can be started as a low-end TE1 in this divisional showdown.

    Mike Evans (ribs) is not on the final injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Seahawks.

    The 49ers’ star wide receiver is good to go for his team’s Week 5 game against a divisional rival. A hard hit to the midsection could change his day, but Evans is extremely tough and should be expected to handle his normal workload. He is a weekly WR2, operating as San Francisco’s passing game focal point.
