Giants’ Thomas, Eluemunor and Carter off to side

Delpit cleared the league’s concussion protocol over the weekend and is good to go. Denzel Ward, on the other hand, will go through warmups to see if he can play. Ward is dealing with a hand injury and is listed as questionable for Week 7.

Baker was listed as questionable for Week 7 after getting in a limited practice on Friday. He is good to go after making it through the weekend unscathed. Baker has one interception, four pass breakups, and a stunning 3.5 sacks this year.

Uchenna Nwosu, also dealing with a hip injury, is also expected to suit up. No free lunch for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs this week. The Seahawks will be at full force. Facing the best defense in the league by most measures, Mahomes is on the QB1/2 border for Week 7.

Rapoport added that Jackson was really close to playing this week. With Tyler Huntley playing well enough to go 1-1 so far, the Ravens took a cautious approach and ruled him out for Week 7. Huntley will start versus the Bengals later today. If all goes well in practice next week, Jackson should be back and vying for the QB1 crown in a shootout with the Bills for Week 8.

Rapoport didn’t go as far as to say they hope he is back for Week 8’s game against the Commanders, but it’s at least on the table. Garrett is currently on injured reserve, so we’ll know if he’s making progress if they open his practice window next week. The reigning DPOY has been out since Week 1 after undergoing surgery on his knee.

Nacua is going to test out his calf issue in warmups. Rapoport said Nacua isn’t necessarily dealing with a calf strain. He simply didn’t feel he could explode like he needed to. Nacua’s groin injury was described similarly earlier this year. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on this injury ahead of kickoff. If Nacua can’t go, Jordan Whittington will take on a larger role in the offense.

Packers OC Adam Stenavich told reporters Jacobs looked “great” in practice earlier this week, so we’re going to assume he’s in football shape and ready to go for Week 7. Given Garafolo’s reporting, Jacobs is already back on the RB1/2 border for a potential shootout with Detroit.

As Rap notes, the Colts view Taylor as a pillar of the franchise. Even if they are forced to rebuild the roster, they could want him there as the centerpiece of the next iteration of the offense. On the other hand, Taylor will turn 28 at the end of the season and the Colts face a lengthy teardown process without their 2027 first-round selection. Taylor will likely be past his prime by the time they are competitive again. Rapoport also named DeForest Buckner and Quenton Nelson as potential trade candidates if the Colts’ struggles continue.

The same is true of Gervon Dexter, who is dealing with a hamstring injury. Rapoport added that there is “much less optimism” for Olamide Zaccheaus (shoulder). That could mean an uptick in snaps for rookie wideout Zachariah Branch. He’s worth an add in deep leagues, but this offense isn’t likely to support another fantasy-relevant pass-catcher.

Surtain will miss his third straight game with the ankle injury. He was limited in practice throughout the week before being listed as questionable. With the Chiefs in the hole for Week 8, holding Surtain out one more game to get him back for a must-win AFC West showdown makes sense. Per Rapoport, there’s a “good chance” he’s back next week.
