Vikings placed LB Ivan Pace Jr. (hamstring) on injured reserve.

He’ll miss at least the next four games. Pace Jr. hasn’t been quite the force he was in 2023 as a coverage player in his second season, but his 85.6 PFF run defense grade shows how important he is for the Vikings run defense. He left Week 12’s game against the Bears after just five snaps. Kamu Grugier-Hill picked up most of the snaps next to Blake Cashman in his absence.

Mike Evans (ribs/Achilles) did not practice on Friday.

Even for an iron man like Evans, this is a little concerning. Frankly, we still expect Evans to play, but two missed practices due partially to Achilles “soreness” are less than ideal. The 49ers face the Commanders on Monday night. Making a backup plan is worthwhile at this time.

Ashton Jeanty

LV Running Back #2

Ashton Jeanty (foot) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Bills.

The Raiders’ starting running back is good to go for what should be a fantasy-friendly game environment. The Raiders encouragingly stopped listing Jeanty with an ankle injury this week. Hopefully, his remaining plantar fasciitis issue subsides before long as well. Jeanty is a low-end RB1 in Week 6.

Brock Bowers (knee) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Bills.

One of these days, Bowers will be removed from the injury report for good. For now, we will continue to let you know that the Raiders’ star player gets a half day on Wednesday before practicing in full for the rest of the week. Bowers is the overall TE1 in fantasy football each week. Start him accordingly.

Austin Ekeler (chest) was limited on Friday.

Ekeler continues to practice in a limited capacity while wearing a red non-contact jersey. He has a chance to play on Monday night, but he is clearly hurting. Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) remains sidelined and Rachaad White (shoulder) has been downgraded to limited. It’s an ailing backfield.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt (groin) did not practice on Friday.

Croskey-Merritt has played through multiple injuries this year. We still think he has a chance to face the 49ers in Week 6’s Monday Night Football game. Rachaad White (shoulder) sported a red non-contact jersey for the first time this week, and was downgraded to limited today.

Terry McLaurin (hamstring/rest) did not practice on Friday.

The Commanders added a “rest” designation to McLaurin’s report, so fantasy managers should not be alarmed by today’s absence. The veteran wide receiver played through the injury last week and should be expected to do so again this week. McLaurin is a WR2 against the 49ers in Week 6’s Monday Night Football game.

Ed Oliver is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Raiders.

Bills slot CB Dee Alford (ankle) is also questionable. Coach Joe Brady said a week ago that both players avoided long-term injuries. They might actually have a chance to play this week. Stay tuned.

Joshua Palmer (shoulder) is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Raiders.

Palmer practiced in a red non-contact jersey on Thursday. Even if he plays this week, he is likely only relevant in single-game DFS tournaments. He mostly provides Josh Allen with another viable target on a couple of plays.

DJ Moore (shoulder) is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Raiders.

The Athletic’s Joe Buscaglia notes that Moore resumed practicing today after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. He did the same thing last week before being labeled questionable and ultimately ruled out on game day. It looks like he’s a game-time decision again this week. If active, he can be started as a WR2, but re-injury remains a risk.
