Brian Burns (ankle) questionable for Week 3

Ferguson is set to handle No. 2 pass-catcher duties with WR Puka Nacua (hip) sidelined this week. The young tight end posted a 6/54/1 receiving line in Week 2 and can be viewed as a TE1 in this matchup.

Brissett practiced fully all week, despite the hip injury. Brissett is not quite hitting the peaks he produced last year and is too tough to trust in 12-team leagues. Consider him a QB2 against the 49ers this week.

The Cardinals lost their top perimeter CB Will Johnson (neck) to injured reserve this week. Fellow perimeter CB Max Melton (toe) is questionable to play. Williams suffered a season-ending Achilles tendon rupture last year, and returns this week to man the slot.

Wright was unable to practice on Friday. He is very unlikely to play, although his absence may only be felt in the return game. Dolphins RB
Ollie Gordon

will serve as the top backup.

This was the expected outcome for Week 3. Reports on Robinson’s injury indicate this could be a multi-week issue. With WR1 Mike Evans (hip) questionable, WR Deebo Samuel and TE George Kittle could take on sizable workloads, though the team will likely still try to limit Kittle’s snap count.

Evans did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but was in uniform and warming up during the open portion of Friday’s practice. When asked whether Evans was limited or full, he declined to say. If Evans was full, we have almost no concerns about his ability to play this week, though he likely would have been removed from the injury report if that were the case. Evans must be treated as truly questionable to play, so make a backup plan, but he is the type of player who does not necessarily need to practice fully before practicing. If active, he is a WR2.

Santos has tumbled from the potential beneficiary of a potent offense to a droppable player in 12-team leagues. He is also on the wrong side of questionable.

Kupp will be available for QB Sam Darnold (glute), who makes his return from his Week 1 injury. Kupp is a mild FLEX option, facing a soft Commanders’ coverage unit.

He didn’t practice all week after spending Sunday night in a Dallas hospital following an “internal injury” he suffered against the Cowboys. Sounds ominous. We’d be unsurprised if Cross were placed on injured reserve on Saturday.

The Seahawks also ruled out S Ty Okada (hamstring) for this week’s game. Okada has not yet played in 2026. Love injured his calf in practice this week. The Seahawks’ D/ST remains a worthwhile play against the Commanders, thanks to the defense’s overall talent and coach Mike Macdonald’s top-tier scheming. Losing the two safeties will simply complicate Macdonald’s preferred three-safety looks.
