    Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Breece Hall (quad) will be questionable for Week 7 against the Dolphins.

    Glenn said Hall will be limited in Friday’s practice and that the team will “see how that goes” to close out the week. Hall has missed the last three games with his quad injury but the fact he is closing out the week with two-straight limited practices suggests he’ll be a true game-time decision entering Sunday. If he’s unable to play, Braelon Allen would again serve as the primary back in the Jets’ backfield and would be a fringe RB1/RB2 in what is shaping up to be a plus matchup against the lowly Dolphins.

    Reporters on the scene said that Hall headed to the rehab area after reporters left the scene, so he’ll probably be given a limited session. Still, he moved well and likely at least has a chance to suit up for Week 7 after this update. Friday’s practice will be telling. It would be surprising if Hall doesn’t at least hit the questionable line as long as he practices on Friday.

    Head coach Aaron Glenn noted that Hall’s status will be evaluated throughout the week. Hall hasn’t played since injuring his quad in Week 3. If the Jets expected him to miss four games, they likely would have placed him on injured reserve. On the other hand, Adonai Mitchell just missed four games with a hand injury and was not placed on IR, so the team seemingly doesn’t have a great read on their players’ health. Hall will likely miss Week 7. Braelon Allen, in turn, is in line for a high-end RB2 ranking versus a weak Dolphins defense.

    Allen ceded a little more work to Isaiah Davis than he did the past two weeks during Breece Hall’s (quad) ongoing absence, but he still cleared 100 yards from scrimmage for the second consecutive outing. Allen was thundering around the field, handing out some nasty stiff arms and broken tackles. Never placed on injured reserve and out for the past three contests, Hall has to be getting close to a return, but we thought the same thing heading into Week 6 before Adonai Mitchell missed his fourth consecutive game with a finger injury. The Jets don’t seem particularly great at this roster management thing. Allen will remain a high-end RB2 if Hall sits against the lowly Dolphins in Week 7.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Things have been trending in this direction for Hall all week. The 25-year-old back was a DNP on both Wednesday and Thursday, and will now miss a third straight game as a result of his injury. Braelon Allen will again lead the Jets’ backfield this week against the Patriots and has handled 44 of the Jets’ 48 running back opportunities since Week 4. Allen will be a volatile RB2 against a Patriots defense that ranks 18th against running backs in fantasy scoring this season.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    This is a small but positive update. Hall typically works on his quad rehab program elsewhere or simply observes practice. Today’s return to the side field will still result in him being listed as a non-participant, but as Cimini says, this is measurable “progress” for the Jets’ top running back. Braelon Allen will undoubtedly get the start this week, but perhaps Hall has a chance to return in Week 7 against the Dolphins. Stay tuned.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Hall will not practice today, and it sounds like he will not practice on Thursday or Friday either. Braelon Allen has played productively in his stead, most recently rushing 24 times for 116 yards and a touchdown against the Browns. Allen is a locked-in RB2 until Hall returns from his upper-leg injury.
  • NYJ Running Back #0
    Allen surprisingly added just one catch for zero yards on four targets. Not ideal, though Allen’s rushing output nearly doubled his previous career high of 59. It was exactly what the Jets and fantasy managers needed during Breece Hall’s second straight absence with a quad injury. Allen contributed runs of 10, 17, 11 and 22 yards, with that final rush finding the end zone. He also had a 13-yarder called back by holding. In other words, he was both grinding out tough yards and providing longer gains. Isaiah Davis mixed in for only cursory breather back work. With Hall yet to resume practicing, Allen should have another plug-and-play RB2 setup in Week 6 against the Patriots.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Braelon Allen will once again be in line to lead the Jets’ backfield with Hall sidelined for a second consecutive week. Hall did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday and will presumably be a DNP again on Friday, now that he has been ruled out ahead of practice. Allen saw 100 percent of the Jets’ running back opportunities last week, rushing 14 times for 59 scoreless yards while adding two receptions for an additional eight yards on two targets. He’ll be a fringe RB1/RB2 in what should be another high-volume day for the third-year back.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    It doesn’t look like Hall will practice this week as he recovers from the injury he sustained in Week 3. That would mean Braelon Allen, who saw all 14 running back rushes for New York in Week 4, will again function as the team’s workhorse in Week 5 against the Browns. Allen should still be considered a top-24 option despite the Jets’ immense offensive struggles last week against Chicago. The Browns’ defense is allowing the sixth-highest EPA per rush this season. Hall was officially a non-participant on Wednesday’s injury report.
  • NYJ Running Back #0
    Allen accounted for every running back rushing attempt for New York with Breece Hall (quad) sidelined. He also ran a route on 14 of the team’s 19 drop backs on a low-volume day for the Jets offense. It’s fantastic usage, even if it didn’t amount to much in the lopsided affair. Allen should remain in lineups next week against the Browns if Hall remains out. His pass game involvement could give Allen plenty of weekly upside for now.

    Cowboys ruled out KaVontae Turpin (ribs) for Week 7 against the Eagles.

    Turpin’s absence will be felt most on special teams, with the team now forced to find a replacement on punt and kick returns. Otherwise, there is almost zero fantasy impact as the team’s WR4.

    Falcons activated A.J. Terrell (groin) from injured reserve.

    The Falcons have been attackable on the perimeter while playing most of the season without Terrell. Fellow cornerback C.J. Henderson is listed questionable for Week 7, but the reintegration of Terrell provides a much more difficult matchup for the injury-riddled 49ers.

    Broncos activated Jonah Coleman (ankle) from injured reserve.

    Coleman missed the minimum four games as he tended to an ankle injury suffered in Week 2. He led the team in snaps in that contest and could return to the primary rushing role considering the inefficient play of J.K. Dobbins in his absence, making him worthy of a start in fantasy circles in a plus matchup against the Cardinals in his first game back.

    Ravens ruled out Lamar Jackson (ankle) for Week 7 against the Bengals.

    Tyler Huntley will draw the start under center for the third straight game as Jackson continues to rehab a high-ankle sprain. Jackson reportedly took most of the first-team reps at practice Friday and was close to being able to play in Week 7, with the team ultimately siding with caution for their franchise quarterback. The Ravens enter a 15-game stretch in which they play three games starting in Week 8, which could have influenced their decision to hold Jackson out one more game. Expect him back for Week 8 against the Bills. His absence greatly influences the upside of the remaining skill position players considering Declan Doyle has halved his usage of play action and completely eliminated RPO with Huntley under center.

    Dallas Goedert (knee) was removed from the injury report Saturday and will play against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Goedert reportedly aggravated his previous knee injury but got back on the practice field for a full session Saturday before being removed from the injury report. He could be stepping into a massive target share with both DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks ruled out. Fantasy managers can start him as an upside TE1 in a great matchup against the Cowboys in Week 7.

    Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is questionable for Week 7 against the Cowboys.

    Although getting in a full practice Saturday, the Eagles head into Monday’s game against the Cowboys with Barkley listed as questionable following a two-game absence. Fantasy managers have a decision considering the Eagles play in Week 7’s final game on Monday Night Football, with no clear fall back options should he be unable to play. It would seem prudent to make alternate plans at the position.

    Eagles ruled out DeVonta Smith (hamstring) and Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) for Week 7 against the Cowboys.

    The Eagles will be without their top two receivers but got good news Saturday with the removal of Dallas Goedert from the injury report. Saquon Barkley is listed as questionable and appears to be a true game-time decision. Considering the low involvement of the backfield in the pass game this season, Goedert stands to benefit the most from the absences at wide receiver. He can be started as an upside TE1 in a solid on-paper matchup against the Cowboys.

    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Vikings plan to activate Jordan Mason (thumb) from injured reserve.

    Mason came into the season as the presumed lead back in a timeshare with Aaron Jones, the latter of whom has performed as a true workhorse in Mason’s absence. Although it could take a week or two for Mason to fully regain the lead back role, his presence significantly mutes the potential of Jones. Expect a near-even split when the Vikings take on the Colts in Week 7.

    Browns activated RB Dylan Sampson (knee) from injured reserve.

    Sampson was limited in practice throughout the week and listed as questionable for Week 7 against the Titans. Now that he’s officially been activated from injured reserve, he’s likely to be Cleveland’s change-of-pace back behind Quinshon Judkins this week. Sampson is worth stashing on fantasy benches, but is truly just a desperation FLEX play coming off a knee injury that’s sidelined him since Week 1.

    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that several teams believe the Jaguars could trade WR Brian Thomas Jr.

    Appearing on ESPN Saturday morning, Fowler, citing Thomas’ zero catches over the last two weeks, said something has to give in this situation. According to several teams the NFL Insider talked to, Thomas could be traded over the next few weeks. Fowler listed the Chiefs and Steelers as potentially interested teams and was emphatic that there will be suitors for Thomas. If you have Thomas in fantasy, it’s hard to imagine his value getting worse with a change of scenery. The Jaguars would appear content to roll with Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers and Travis Hunter as their top receivers in the event of a Thomas trade.
