Jets LB C.J. Mosley is questionable for Monday night's game against the Bills after putting in limited practices all week. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo says "all indications are" that Mosley "should be a go."
Bills RB James Cook (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Jets. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday. There have been multiple reports that Cook is expected to play in this one, but fantasy owners would be wise to stash RB Ray Davis or RB Ty Johnson as insurance just in case Cook ends up inactive.
Jets TE Tyler Conklin (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Bills. He was limited in practice all week. We've heard nothing to suggest that Conklin is in real danger of missing this one, but the late kickoff makes it a trickier situation. Fantasy owners hoping to start Conklin could add Jets backup TE Jeremy Ruckert as insurance. Bills TE Dawson Knox is also a potential replacement if Conklin ends up inactive.
ESPN's Stephen Holder reports that Colts WRs Michael Pittman (back) and Josh Downs (toe) are expected to play against the Titans on Sunday. Both guys got in just limited practices on Friday, so it's safe to assume they won't be at 100% for this one. And, with QB Anthony Richardson expected back under center, Pittman and Downs land outside the top 35 WRs in our Week 6 Rankings.
Commanders RB Brian Robinson (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. He seemingly suffered a setback trying to play through this knee injury last weekend and didn't practice at all this week. We'll see if he can make it back for Week 7's meeting with the Panthers.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) has been downgraded to doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. With WR Davante Adams (hamstring) already ruled out, Vegas will be down its top two WRs. The team elevated WRs Alex Bachman and Kristian Wilkerson from the practice squad. They'll join Tre Tucker, D.J. Turner, and Tyreik McAllister in the WR corps. Tucker is the best bet for targets and worth a look as a WR4 or Flex in fantasy lineups. TE Brock Bowers should also be in for lots of volume tomorrow. But this passing game figures to struggle mightily against a quality Steelers defense.
Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) is expected to make his 2024 debut against the Bengals next week, according to insider Mary Kay Cabot. It'll be Chubb's first game since suffering a multi-ligament knee injury in September 2023. It remains to be seen how close Chubb can get to pre-injury form. He won't be a viable Week 7 fantasy play, but he does figure to steal some early-down work from RB Jerome Ford. And Chubb's role could quickly grow depending on how that knee performs. Grab him if he's still available in your fantasy league.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler confirms that Panthers WR Diontae Johnson (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Falcons on Sunday. Johnson was limited in practice all week and is officially questionable. But he played through this injury last week and never seemed to be in danger of missing this one. Johnson is safe to keep in Week 6 fantasy lineups.
Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) has been downgraded to out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals. That'll again leave the backfield to Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray. Gray actually started last week's game, but he lost a goal-line fumble on the first possession. Tracy took over the rest of the way, ripping off 129 yards on 18 carries. That should make the rookie the backfield leader on Sunday night against Cincinnati's 20th-ranked RB defense.
The Chargers have placed RB Gus Edwards on IR with his ankle injury. That means he'll miss at least the next four games. That absence makes rookie RB Kimani Vidal and RB Hassan Haskins worth stashing on fantasy rosters. Haskins has played 7 snaps to 0 for Vidal but has also tied for second-most special teams snaps among all Chargers. We'll see this week how backfield touches get spread -- behind J.K. Dobbins -- this week. Vidal remains more interesting for fantasy upside, given that we haven't yet seen him flunk out with an NFL team. Haskins landed with the Titans in Round 4 of the 2022 draft and got dumped after two seasons. He did play for Jim Harbaugh in college, though.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler hears that it'll be an "uphill battle" for Commanders RB Brian Robinson (knee) to play against the Ravens on Sunday. That's not a surprise after Robinson missed practice all week. Robinson is listed as questionable, and there's still "a little bit of hope" that he'll be able to play, per Fowler. But fantasy owners should be making other plans for Week 6 fantasy lineups. Even if Robinson plays, he'll be a shaky bet at less than 100% in a tough matchup.
Bills RB James Cook had missed practice through the week so far with a toe injury. He practiced on Saturday and is planning to suit up Monday Night against the Jets.
Steelers RB Jaylen Warren was upgraded today and now has no injury designation for Week 6 against the Raiders. Warren has dealt with hamstring and knee injuries during the offseason and season so far. He could see a prominent role in the Steelers' run game with Najee Harris being ineffective so far this year.
Cardinals K Matt Prater (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Packers. Chad Ryland will kick again for Arizona if Prater is unable to go. Avoid this situation in Week 6 fantasy lineups.
Browns TE David Njoku (knee, ankle) is not listed on the final Week 6 injury report. It’s a bit of a surprise after he suffered a knee injury last Sunday and then did not practice on Wednesday. But Njoku got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday and will play against the Eagles this weekend. He’s a risky fantasy start after making it through just 26 snaps last week.
Raiders RB Zamir White (groin) is questionable for this weekend’s game against the Steelers. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. White should not be in your Week 6 fantasy plans, but his return would make RB Alexander Mattison a much shakier play.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Steelers. He only got in a limited practice on Friday, so he seems legitimately iffy for this one. We’ll look for an update on Meyers on Sunday morning but won’t get Vegas’ inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET.
Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth (calf) is not listed on the final injury report for this weekend’s game vs. the Raiders. He was added to the injury report on Thursday but put in a full practice on Friday, so the calf shouldn’t be an issue. Freiermuth has finished as a top-15 fantasy TE in all five weeks so far.
Chargers RB Gus Edwards (ankle) missed practice all week and is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos. That should mean RB Kimani Vidal’s regular-season debut. The rookie is not a Week 6 fantasy option but might be worth stashing now in deep fantasy leagues. A strong performance this weekend could make Vidal the Chargers’ No. 2 RB – and the J.K. Dobbins handcuff – going forward.
Colts WR Michael Pittman "has decided he will try to play through the nagging back injury that’s been hampering him," according to insider Jordan Schultz. The Colts "strongly considered" placing Pittman on IR, per Schultz, "but the plan for now is to continue playing." Pittman should be active for this weekend's game vs. the Titans, but he won't be at 100% and could be at risk of limited snaps and/or exiting early. That obviously makes him a risky fantasy starter.
