Okonkwo (hamstring) not practicing on Wednesday

Beck left Thursday’s practice with back spasms and was listed as a DNP. Head coach Mike LaFleur said he was not overly concerned with the injury and that he doesn’t believe it will be anything long-term. Beck’s injury shouldn’t change his Week 7 availability, as he has been the emergency QB3 all season.

Here’s what happened: Ravens head coach Jesse Minter spoke and said the team is still “working through” whether Jackson would play on Sunday, and then the team took the unusual step of having both Jackson and Tyler Huntley talk to the media. Jackson also said he doesn’t need to be 100% to play and clarified that he had a high-ankle sprain. There’s little doubt in our minds at this point that Jackson is headed for a questionable tag after a limited Friday session. Reading between the lines, the fact that Huntley spoke probably sets us up nicely for a rug pull, but Jackson-reliant fantasy managers will probably be waiting until inactives on Sunday before they know for sure.

Ward popped up on the injury report today. Friday pop-up questionables are always tough to understand from the outside without any major reporting, but it stands to reason that Ward has a real chance to miss the game based on the listing. The Browns cleared Carson Schwesinger (ankle) from the report, so at least their star linebacker will be in there.

He’ll be on the WR3 line in a good matchup against the Titans. Boston finally had a clunker last week against Baltimore, but he’s been remarkably consistent otherwise and should find easier footing against Tennessee’s rough back seven.

Concepcion should be treated as a PPR WR3/WR4 tweener this week in a good matchup against the Titans. With Denzel Boston also active, we likely won’t be seeing any major explosions here. Concepcion-reliant managers would accept any explosion at this point as he’s found it hard to crack 50 receiving yards so far.

He should carry his usual load in a good matchup against the Titans. That will put Judkins in the mid-to-low RB2 range this week, even with Dylan Sampson getting a chance to come back off injured reserve.

Things have been trending in this direction all week, but LaFleur officially confirmed on Friday that Love will miss a second straight game. Tyler Allgeier and Bam Knight will likely split duties again in Week 7 after seeing a near 50/50 split in the touch distribution last week, with Allgeier’s 19 touches narrowly edging out Knight’s 17. Both Allgeier and Knight are fringe RB2/RB3 plays against a stout Broncos defense. In addition to Love the Cardinals also ruled out DT Walter Nolen III (ankle), S Andrew Wiggins (ankle), and OG Jo Gaines II (ankle).

If active, he will be a change-up back for Quinshon Judkins, who is not carrying a status this week. Coming off a long-term injury, it would be a real leap of faith to put Sampson in a FLEX role this week, even against the Titans.

It’s a slight upgrade for Christian McCaffrey, not that you were thinking about not starting McCaffrey anyway. The Falcons also ruled out CB Billy Bowman Jr. (hamstring) — neither player practiced this week.

Just minutes after head coach Todd Bowles said the team would list Egbuka as doubtful, the official injury report listed him as out, despite his limited participation in Friday’s practice. Egbuka was unable to clear concussion protocol in time to be active for this week, and will now set his sights on returning in Week 8 in time to face the Falcons.
