  • MIA Running Back #31

    Raheem Mostert (chest) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Patriots.
    Mostert was upgraded to a full practice on Friday before being removed from the injury report. Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters he plans to modify how much Mostert plays in his first game back. In other words, he will be on a pitch count this week. With Miami’s offense spiraling sans Tua Tagovailoa, Mostert on a less-than-typical workload will top out at a low-end RB3 ranking for Week 5.
  • BAL Cornerback #25

    Ravens declared CB Tre’Davious White ,TE Isaiah Likely, CB Jalyn Armour-Davis, EDGE Brent Urban, RB Rasheen Ali, EDGE Adisa Isaac and C Nick Samac inactive for Week 10 against the Bengals.
    Acquired from the Rams two days ago, White couldn’t get up to speed in only two days time. Although now well post-peak, White falls into “all the help they can get” territory for the Ravens’ beleaguered secondary, and will undoubtedly be out there for Week 11 snaps.
  • SF Running Back #23
    Kyle Shanahan confirmed he expects Christian McCaffrey (achilles) to make his season debut on Sunday against the Bucs.
    After toying with the “competitive advantage” game with non-updates on CMC’s status, Shanahan finally admits the obvious. McCaffrey has been practicing without setbacks and could be ready for something of a full load in Tampa. Even if 18-20 touches is ultimately unlikely, even 12-15 keeps McCaffrey locked in as a no-brainer RB1.
  • CIN Wide Receiver #5
    Tee Higgins (quad) is inactive for Week 10 against the Ravens.
    Higgins was always expected to remain sidelined after failing to get in a practice on the short week. Higgins isn’t exactly known as a quick healer, but 10 days hence against the Chargers could be realistic after he at least got a “doubtful” tag as opposed to an immediate rule-out this week. Joining Higgins on the shelf are LT Orlando Brown, WR Charlie Jones, RB Kendall Milton, EDGE Cedric Johnson and TE Tanner McLachlan.
  • CIN Wide Receiver #81
    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Bengals WR Jermaine Burton had a “locked in” week of practice after his Week 9 healthy scratch, and that the Bengals are “counting on him to be a factor” against the Ravens.
    Apparently a big part of the Bengals’ Week 9, Tee Higgins-less game plan, Burton was scratched after missing Saturday’s walk-through. A massive blunder, but one the Bengals are apparently willing to forgive with Higgins still sidelined vs. the Ravens’ awful pass defense. Third-round rookie Burton is probably worth a WR5 dart throw in this plus matchup.
  • SF Wide Receiver #1
    Deebo Samuel (ribs, oblique) remained “limited” on Thursday.
    Always limited by something or other in practice, there has been zero indication Samuel’s Week 10 status is actually in doubt. He should be out there on the WR1/2 borderline vs. a really bad Bucs pass D.
  • SF Running Back #24
    49ers RB Jordan Mason (shoulder) was downgraded to “limited” for Thursday’s practice.
    Mason was listed as “full” coming out of the 49ers’ bye on Wednesday. It’s possible he experienced unexpected soreness following his Wednesday return, but it’s more likely this was part of a rep management plan all along. Mason’s status still matters with the Niners refusing to confirm Christian McCaffrey (achilles) is indeed returning Sunday. Fantasy managers should still consider it unlikely Mason ultimately ends up in Week 10 lineups.
  • SF Running Back #23
    Christian McCaffrey (achilles) remained “limited” for Thursday’s practice.
    “If he emerges from today’s practice, the most rigorous of the week, without any issues in his achilles, it seems like he’ll be home free to be activated Saturday and to make his 2024 debut on Sunday,” is the opinion of beat reporter Matt Barrows. Coach Kyle Shanahan has, predictably, refused to publicly commit to any Week 10 expectations for his — we hope — returning lead back, but he still appears on track in our eyes. Then it becomes pretty simple: If CMC plays, he’s in fantasy lineups. Hopefully we get clarity by Friday’s final injury report instead of an inconclusive “questionable” tag.
  • PHI Tight End #88
    Dallas Goedert (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday’s practice.
    Goedert told reporters on Wednesday that he is on track to play in Week 10 against the Cowboys. Having logged back-to-back full practices to start the week, there’s little reason to think he won’t be on the field this Sunday. The veteran tight end has missed three straight games with the injury but will be a fringe TE1/TE2 if active.
  • PHI Wide Receiver #11
    A.J. Brown (knee) was a full participant in Thursday’s practice.
    After suffering a knee injury in Sunday’s win over the Jaguars, Brown was limited in Wednesday’s practice but upgraded to full on Thursday. The veteran receiver is considered “day-to-day” with the injury, but Thursday’s practice should be a good sign for his Week 10 availability. We’ll have a better sense of where things stand when Friday’s injury report is released, but if he’s active, Brown will be a fringe WR1 against a struggling Cowboys defense.
  • LAC Running Back #4
    Gus Edwards (ankle) was limited in Thursday’s practice.
    The Chargers opened Edwards’ practice window on Wednesday, meaning he can be activated from injured reserve at any time. The veteran running back has been limited in back-to-back practices to start the week but isn’t expected to carry much fantasy upside whenever he returns to the field. Edwards has been a touchdown-dependent back for the last two seasons, making him a risky bet for fantasy managers to rely on whenever he returns.
