Chargers QB Justin Herbergt managed just 196 passing yards, 1 TD and 1 INT in Sunday night's loss to the 49ers. It marked the 1st time this season that he fell short of 200 yards but his 4th straight game short of 6 yards per pass attempt. NBC's Cris Collinsworth said after the game that the Chargers hope to get Keenan Allen and/or Mike Williams back for Week 11. That would obviously help the QB.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (hip, ribs) is inactive for today’s game against the Colts. That leaves Vegas without its top 3 LBs from last week’s lineup. Veteran Jayon Brown looks like the best bet to lead the corps this week, though it’s a guess after he spent the past 2 games as a healthy scratch
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (hip, ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts. He put in limited practices the past 2 days after missing Wednesday. If he's ready to go, Perryman will carry big upside against a Colts team that has supplied more fantasy points to LBs than any other.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (hip, ribs) returned to a limited practice Thursday after missing Wednesday. If he's ready to play Sunday, he should lead the team's LBs in snaps. Divine Deablo landed on IR this week, and Blake Martinez retired Thursday. An active Perryman will be a strong play in a high-upside matchup for LBs.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman missed Wednesday's practice with hip and rib injuries. Levi Damien of Raiders Wire says Perryman was "visibly in pain for much of the game" in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars. It's tough to say whether that impacted his playing time. Perryman played 75% of defensive snaps vs. 91% for Blake Martinez, in a game Divine Deablo left early. With Deablo now on IR, Martinez looks like the safest IDP option in the corps for this week and a solid-to-good starter over at least the next 4 games. We'll see about Perryman's status for Sunday's home date with the Colts, a high-upside matchup.
Chargers HC Brandon Staley said Wednesday that EDGE Joey Bosa is getting close to returning to the field. Might he make it back for this Sunday's matchup against the 49ers and his brother Nick? "I just know that he's back in the building," Staley told reporters. "He's not there for practice yet. We'll let you know when he's going to come back to practice. He is in good spirits. I think that we're getting closer to that practice point, just don't know exactly when that is going to be." That doesn't seem to point to Bosa being ready for Week 10. But he's worth stashing -- where it makes sense -- in IDP leagues now ahead of a potential Week 11 return. Bosa has been out since Week 3 with a groin injury that required surgery.
Missing Keenan Allen and Mike Williams due to injuries, Chargers QB Justin Herbert managed only 245 yards and 1 TD in Week 9. He added 1 INT on 43 attempts — T-3rd-most on the week. Forced to play hero ball while dealing with 4 dropped passes, Herbert wound up with the 4th highest PFF passing grade. Week 10 turns up a much tougher road matchup at San Francisco. Herbert will likely remain without both Allen and Williams, too.
As expected, Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Saints. We're expecting Kenyan Drake to operate as Baltimore's lead back, with RB Justice Hill the #2.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) did not practice all week and is listed as doubtful for Monday night's game vs. the Rams. His absence leaves Baltimore's backfield to Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill. Drake is the best bet to lead the way in touches.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) missed practice again on Friday. It's looking like he'll miss Monday night's game vs. the Saints, which would leave Baltimore's backfield to Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday. We're tentatively expecting Edwards to miss Monday night's game vs. the Saints, leaving Baltimore's backfield to Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.
Chargers WR Josh Palmer has cleared the concussion protocol, HC Brandon Staley said Wednesday. Barring a setback, Palmer will play vs. the Falcons this weekend. He's needed for a significant role with WR Mike Williams out and WR Keenan Allen still dealing with hamstring problems.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards has a "minor" hamstring strain, according to The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec. He reports that Edwards will be questionable for the Monday night visit to New Orleans in Week 9 "but hasn't been ruled out." The uncertainty on Edwards makes Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill each worth a look in waiver runs this week. We'd target Drake first, after he worked ahead of Hill each of the past 2 weeks.
Commanders QB Taylor Heinicke went 23-of-31 passing (74.2%) for 279 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT in Sunday's win over the Colts. He also ran for Washington's other TD amid a 6-29-1 rushing day. The QB tied WR Curtis Samuel for the team lead in rushing yards. A generous Vikings pass defense awaits in Week 9, making Heinicke a potential streaming option for fantasy football lineups.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards' hamstring injury is considered "minor," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hears. "If he misses time, it’s likely just a week or so," Rapoport adds. Baltimore has a Week 10 bye, so it seems most likely that Edwards is held out of next Sunday's game vs. the Saints. But we'll keep an eye on him when the Ravens return to practice on Wednesday.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards suffered a hamstring injury in the 4th quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Bucs. He's officially questionable to return, but we'd be surprised if he gets back out there. Edwards' absence leaves Baltimore with RBs Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week but figures to lead Baltimore’s 3-man committee backfield tonight, ahead of Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill.
The Ravens list RB Gus Edwards (knee) as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week. Edwards seemed to escape Week 7 without a setback to that surgically repaired knee, so we're expecting him to play against Tampa. But check back around 7 pm ET tomorrow night to make sure he's active.
Ravens RB Gus Edwards (knee) has been activated from the PUP list and will play vs. the Browns on Sunday. It'll be his 1st action since tearing his ACL in September of 2021. Even with RB J.K. Dobbins on IR, this Baltimore backfield is as muddy as ever. Edwards, Kenyan Drake and Justice Hill all have a chance to lead the way in carries this weekend. Our best guess is that Edwards will be limited in his return and that Drake will edge out Hill in terms of volume -- but none of the 3 is a safe Week 7 fantasy play.
The Lions placed WR D.J. Chark (ankle) on IR. So he'll miss at least the next 4 games as he apparently deals with a setback with the ankle he fractured in September of 2021. Feel free to cut Chark from fantasy rosters.
