Williams suffered a concussion in the preseason finale last Thursday. A strong preseason in which he caught seven passes for 236 yards (33.7 YPR) and three touchdowns earned him the No. 4 receiver job over rookie Chris Harper.

As usual, Kamara’s back listing has not prevented him in any real way from playing. A potential Travis Etienne activation off injured reserve could cut into his FLEX value in Week 10, but if Etienne stays on IR, Kamara will be a reasonable play against a rough Panthers run defense.

He got in a full practice on Friday and spoke with reporters as well. Based on that, we’d guess he’s got a good chance to be activated off injured reserve and play against the Bengals in the first week of his 21-day window.

We’ll see if he goes back to being a thorn in the ceiling cases for the remainder of the Steelers’ offensive players against the Bengals. Skowronek has no standalone value.

Meyers will be in line for a FLEX-worthy workload against the Titans. The good news is that the over/under has climbed to 46.5 after last week’s date with Joey Fagnano, leaving Meyers as a more viable touchdown threat in Week 10 than he was in a limited passing workload against the Ravens.

He practiced on Friday and, as it was last week, the Jaguars cleared him with just one practice. He’ll be an upside RB2 against the Titans.

Johnson is a decent bet to receive interest via the waiver wire. He has played for the Eagles since 2023, logging 1,589 offensive and special teams snaps combined. While he primarily contributed as a traditional tackle, the Eagles would at times line him up as an extra blocker at tight end. He is not a reliable starter, but can still contribute in the right situation.

Ferguson is expected to be out for a couple of weeks, though the Rams are fortuitously on bye in Week 11. The rest of the Rams’ tight ends are in varying states of health. Colby Parkinson (ribs) will likely play through his injury again. Tyler Higbee (illness) and Davis Allen (oblique) did not practice on Thursday. Their game status has not been revealed.

The Rams were optimistic about McDuffie practicing on Thursday and playing on Sunday. The former did not happen. It sounds like he has a chance to play this weekend, but his recovery appears to be going slightly slower than expected. Rams S Kam Curl (toe) is also questionable to play, though LG Steve Avila (hamstring) has been ruled out.

Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters that he expects Garrett to play. This is unfortunate news for the Cardinals, who will be led by rookie Carson Beck in his first NFL start. Garrett played very well last week against the Commanders, but his preseason knee issue is apparently still bothering him. Hopefully, he can get healthy before the season’s end.

A few days ago, McVay told reporters that Nacua would not be placed on injured reserve due to transaction limitations, so it was a bit surprising to see him land there yesterday. The move prompted some concern. He was initially expected to return in Week 14 or 15, and he will officially be eligible to return on the latter date against the Cowboys. As of today, he is on track to do so, just in time for the fantasy football playoffs. Nacua should not be dropped in any format. He will be a WR1 upon returning.
