Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (foot) is not listed on the final injury report. He was limited on Wednesday, sidelined on Thursday and then limited again on Friday. Metcalf should be ready to play his usual role in Sunday night's game vs. the Steelers.

Washington LB Cole Holcomb finished the week with no injury status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. He opened with limited Wednesday and Thursday practices because of a shoulder injury. But Holcomb put in a full Friday workout and should be ready for a solid IDP scoring matchup.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (foot) did not practice on Thursday. He's been on the injury report with this foot since Week 4 but had put in 6 straight limited practices. It's unclear if he suffered a setback or just got Thursday off. We should learn more tomorrow.

Washington LB Cole Holcomb is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints. He's dealing with a shoulder injury that kept him out of Wednesday's practice. Holcomb did return for limited workouts Thursday and Friday, though. We'll check his status Sunday morning.

Rams HC Sean McVay said the kind of thing this week that fantasy football players want to hear about WR Robert Woods: "This guy's a stud in every sense of the word. It is important to be able to get a handful of guys involved. That's something that I always want to continue to be intentional about. ... When Robert's involved, that's a good thing for the Rams offense. That's something that we want to continue to see displayed, but Robert is a leader, he's a captain and he's been doing a great job up to this point. We just need to get him some more opportunities and that starts with me." Woods sits well behind leader Cooper Kupp but has still seen the 2nd most targets among Rams through 4 games. After seeing 6 targets or fewer in 3 of the first 4 games, though, perhaps he'll find more passes coming his way Thursday night at Seattle. The Seahawks have provided a high-upside matchup for opposing offenses so far, including spending more defensive snaps on the field than any other team. If your lineup decisions are close for Week 5, we'd lean toward giving Woods a shot.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf (foot) isn’t listed on the final injury report. He popped up as a limited participant on Thursday and was limited again on Friday -- but he’s evidently fine for this weekend’s game vs. the 49ers. Unless we hear otherwise, Metcalf is safe to get into Week 4 fantasy lineups.

Seahawks WR D.K. Metcalf was added to the injury report with a foot and limited in practice on Thursday. We don't have any other info on his status right now. Check back tomorrow for another update.

Bucs WR Scotty Miller will miss “a significant amount of time" with a toe injury suffered in Sunday's loss to the Rams, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. If you had Miller stashed in a redraft league, you can drop him. WR Antonio Brown (COVID) should be back for Week 4. But if he's not, Tyler Johnson would have #3 WR duties to himself.

49ers RB Trey Sermon will "lead the way" and get the "bulk of carries" vs. the Packers tonight, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. We've heard the same from multiple 49ers beat writers. Sermon isn't the safest Week 3 fantasy play -- but he has loads of upside in a plus matchup.

The Steelers have downgraded OLB T.J. Watt to out for Sunday's game against the Bengals. That leaves the team without 2 of its top 3 edge players, as Alex Highsmith had already been ruled out. Melvin Ingram hits Sunday as a sneaky IDP option for sack-friendly leagues. He does come with a low fantasy-scoring floor, however.

Steelers EDGE T.J. Watt is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Bengals. The groin injury that knocked Watt out last week kept him limited in practice throughout this week. We’d bet he’ll play but will have to check his status Sunday morning. Fellow Steelers EDGE Alex Highsmith has been ruled out with his own groin injury. The whole situation elevates Melvin Ingram as an IDP option

49ers RB Trey Sermon (concussion) has been medically cleared and isn't listed on the final injury report. With RB JaMycal Hasty (ankle) out and RB Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) doubtful, it's currently Sermon, Trenton Cannon and Jacques Patrick at RB on San Francisco's active roster. RBs Kerryon Johnson and Chris Thompson are eligible to be activated from the practice squad. HC Kyle Shanahan wouldn't say Friday afternoon who will get the start vs. Green Bay, but multiple 49ers beat writers expect it to be Sermon. We'll continue to look for clues on how the touches will be divvied.

49ers RB Trey Sermon (concussion) remained limited in Thursday's practice. He still has multiple stages of the protocol to clear if he's to play vs. the Packers on Sunday night. We'll get another update on his progress tomorrow.

49ers RB Trey Sermon (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. It means that he's made some progress through the league's protocol. If Sermon can get cleared in time for Sunday night's game vs. the Packers, the 49ers might be forced to give him a significant role.

49ers HC Kyle Shanahan confirmed on Monday that RB Trey Sermon sustained a concussion in the win over the Eagles. It happened on Sermon's 1st carry of the game, which didn't come until the 4th quarter. We'll see when the rookie is cleared, but he's a ways away from fantasy relevance right now.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Steelers OLB T.J. Watt "has a chance" to play Sunday against the Bengals. Watt left Week 2 early with a groin injury. Even if he's not able to make it back for the next game, this report indicates the injury isn't too serious.

Steelers OLB T.J. Watt left in the 1st half of Sunday’s game against the Raiders with a groin injury. He’s questionable to return.

49ers RB Trey Sermon is active for today’s game against the Eagles. The rookie, of course, was a healthy scratch behind Raheem Mostert, Elijah Mitchell and JaMycal Hasty for the opener. Mostert is done for the season, but Mitchell, Hasty and Trenton Cannon are active today. Your guess as to how much work Sermon will receive is as good as our’s. Mitchell is expected to "carry the load," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said Monday that RB Trey Sermon will be active for Week 2. Sermon was a surprise healthy scratch for the opener after looking like a top 2 RB on the depth chart throughout the offseason. But with RB Raheem Mostert out for the season, San Francisco is down to Sermon, Elijah Mitchell and JaMycal Hasty on the active roster. (Plus Kerryon Johnson on the practice squad.) Of course, it remains to be seen how touches will be divvied among those guys. Sermon would be a risky Week 2 fantasy play -- but he should certainly remain on rosters.

Steelers OLB Alex Highsmith (groin) is active for today's game against the Bills. He's not a high-ceiling IDP option but is available for deeper leagues.
