Brooks is the 49ers’ starting left guard, so him being out isn’t deal against an interior Bucs defense led by massive human Vita Vea. However, Jon Feliciano should step in for Banks as a solid veteran back-up. The other inactives aren’t much of a surprise.

The second-round rookie could provide mild depth for the Cardinals’ lackluster cornerback corps, if active. WR Xavier Weaver (oblique) is also listed as questionable.

Perry missed Week 1 with the hand issue but got in a full week of practices ahead of the Saints’ matchup with the Cowboys. He will likely start the year behind veteran receiver Cedrick Wilson on the depth chart.

Moreau took a shot to the head late in the Saints’ Week 1 win over the Panthers and immediately entered the league’s concussion protocol. He was limited in the first practice of the week but got upgraded to full sessions on Thursday and Friday. Moreau led the Saints’ tight ends in routes and targets in Week 1, catching all four of his looks for 43 yards and a touchdown. He ranks as a fringe TE2 heading into the weekend.

Sewell had his ankle rolled on in the Lions’ Week 1 win over the Rams. He was held out of practice on Wednesday and Thursday this week before being upgraded to a limited session on Friday. Head coach Dan Campbell told reporters he wasn’t sure if Sewell would be able to play and that they are trying to be smart about his injury. The All-Pro right tackle is truly questionable for Week 2. Dan Skipper would likely be the next man up if Sewell can’t go.

NBC Houston’s Aaron Wilson reports “No injury designation for Texans veteran tight end Dalton Schultz (minor sprained ankle), who had full practice Friday in his return after being held out Wednesday and Thursday for precautionary reasons.” Schultz is good to go for the Texans’ Sunday Night Football game against the Bears.

Ferguson was unable to practice all week and evidently never had much of a chance to play. Backup TE Luke Schoonmaker will start in Ferguson’s stead. He is not a recommended start in 12-team leagues.

Williams seemingly suffered the injury when he took a shot to the lower leg versus the Rams in Week 1. He had his ankle taped up but returned without any issues. Williams was limited in practice for all three sessions this week. He appears to be on the right side of questionable heading into the weekend, but fantasy managers will want to check the Lions’ inactives 90 minutes before kickoff to be sure. If Wiliams is active, he will sit on the WR2/3 border in a potential shootout with the Bucs.

McGary promisingly played through the injury last week, though more may be asked of him in Week 2. The Falcons’ passing game was heavily scrutinized following QB Kirk Cousins’ statuesque performance and the team thusly had Cousins take play-action repetitions under center during the media portion of practice on Thursday. The offensive line will have to buy Cousins all the time it can if Falcons coaches implement a new game plan. Falcons LB Nate Landman logged DNP designation on Thursday and Friday after adding a calf injury to his rehabilitation program. He was previously working through a quad injury.

Lloyd missed Week 1 while recovering from the hamstring issue he suffered in training camp. He returned to practice last week and was limited in all three sessions this week. Lloyd is close to a return, but given his recent injury history, it wouldn’t be surprising for the Packers to give him one more week to full recover.

Jacobs was limited in practice earlier in the week, but his back issue never appeared to be serious. Being removed from the injury report entirely suggests he is good to go for Week 2. With Malik Willis looking like the favorite to start for Green Bay, Jacobs will see plenty of work as Matt LaFleur attempts to hide his quarterback. Jacobs is a volume-based RB1 heading into Sunday.
