| 10/21/2026 7:46:00 PM | Elliss (chest) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Bears. |
| Elliss logged three consecutive full practices during Week 7 prep. The linebacker overcame his chest injury in each session and should do the same for Thursday night's game. | |
| 10/21/2026 5:31:00 PM | Jefferson (ankle) was a limited at Wednesday's practice. |
| Despite having the benefit of a Week 6 bye, Jefferson appears to be dealing with the ankle injury that he suffered in Week 3 and forced inactive status in Week 4 before he suited up in Week 5 at New Orleans, when he hauled in six of seven targets for 79 yards and one touchdown. Meanwhile, fellow WR Jordan Addison (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday, meaning Jefferson has a bit of work to do to get the top of the Vikings' receiving corps back to 100 percent. | |
| 10/21/2026 4:11:00 PM | Warren (groin) did not practice Wednesday. |
| A groin injury cropped up for Warren on Friday going into Week 6, and it prevented him from suiting up against the Titans. He was unable to practice Wednesday, which puts his practice participation firmly on the radar for the remainder of the week. If he's unable to go Sunday, Mo Alie-Cox and Will Mallory would take most of the tight end reps. | |
| 10/21/2026 3:30:00 PM | Irving (illness) did not practice Wednesday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports. |
| Irving was among five Buccaneers who did not practice due to illness to begin the week. It's early enough in the week that fantasy managers don't need to be overly concerned, but additional missed practices would change that. Kenny Gainwell and Sean Tucker would take on more work if Irving is unable to go Sunday. | |
| 10/21/2026 12:59:00 PM | Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that Rice (hamstring/knee) won't practice Wednesday, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports. |
| Rice emerged from the first quarter of the Chiefs' Week 4 win at Las Vegas with a hamstring injury. Even with the benefit of a Week 5 bye, Rice hasn't been able to practice in the meantime, and the Chiefs have since listed him with a knee issue in addition to the hamstring injury. He likely will need to mix into drills Thursday and/or Friday to have a chance to return to action Sunday in Seattle. | |
| 10/21/2026 9:31:00 AM | Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said Tuesday that Tyson (hamstring) is "getting closer" but won't practice this week, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports. |
| Tyson made the trip to Paris ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Steelers, but he's not ready to have his 21-day practice window opened just yet. While the Saints haven't provided many specifics regarding where Tyson stands in his recovery from a right hamstring strain beyond noting that he's "improving," the team has a bye coming Week 8, so rookie wideout will be afforded more time to get closer to 100 percent before potentially getting back on the field. If Tyson is able to resume practicing coming out of the bye week, he could be a candidate to make his NFL debut as soon as Nov. 8, when the Saints host the Browns. | |
| 10/20/2026 9:55:00 PM | Smith logged five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Browns. |
| Smith was credited with his second sack of the season when he took down Deshaun Watson late in the first quarter, which led to the Browns punting the ball away two plays later. Smith's sack total is already his most in a season since the 2022 campaign (4.5 across 17 regular-season games), when he suited up for both the Bears and Ravens. His 47 combined tackles leads the Ravens and is tied with Dane Belton and Jihaad Campbell for 17th-most in the NFL. | |
| 10/20/2026 9:40:00 PM | Styles finished Monday's 23-17 loss to the 49ers with 13 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defense. |
| The rookie first-rounder led the Commanders in tackles Monday, and it was his second consecutive game with 13 combined tackles. Styles is up to 46 combined tackles through six regular-season games, which leads the Commanders and ranks in the top 20 in the NFL. | |
| 10/19/2026 11:37:00 PM | McCaffrey rushed 16 times for 64 yards and two touchdowns and brought in nine of 10 targets for 53 yards in the 49ers' 23-17 win over the Commanders on Monday night. He also lost a fumble. |
| McCaffrey, who's been subject to a markedly lighter workload than usual over the first weeks of the campaign, recorded season highs in rush attempts, receptions, receiving yards and targets on a very busy night. The star running back also contributed his second multi-touchdown tally of the season, powering into the end zone on a pair of one-yard runs in the first half. McCaffrey logged twice as many carries and nine more targets than rookie backfield mate Kaelon Black, so there's no question who the leader of the ground attack is heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Falcons on Sunday. | |
| 10/19/2026 11:01:00 PM | Dicker made both of his field-goal attempts in the Chargers' 22-6 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. |
| Dicker's 23-yard and 30-yard field goals were the only points scored by the Chargers in the team's blowout loss. While the offense could not get going, as has been the theme all season, Dicker remained reliable. The 26-year-old moves to 9-for-11 on field-goal attempts and a perfect 9-for-9 on extra-point attempts over six regular-season games in 2026. | |
| 10/19/2026 10:36:00 PM | Mendoza did not play a single snap during the Raiders' 33-30 loss to the Bills on Sunday. |
| Mendoza got his first taste of NFL action during the Raiders' final offensive drive in their Week 5 blowout loss to the Patriots, but the rookie first overall pick observed Sunday's game from the sidelines. The Raiders have dropped each of their last three games, and if veteran Kirk Cousins cannot right the ship, then head coach Klint Kubiak may turn the keys over the Mendoza in the next few weeks. The Raiders will stay home for Week 7 against the Rams on Oct. 25. | |
| 10/19/2026 9:49:00 PM | Wicks caught two of four passes for 24 yards during the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday. |
| Wicks' 24 receiving yards were his second lowest of the season, but he still finished third among Eagles pass catchers in that category Sunday behind DeVonta Smith (75) and Dallas Goedert (61). Week 6 was the Eagles' first game with Tanner McKee under center, and with Jalen Hurts (calf) out for the rest of the season, the scoring floors of Wicks and the other Philadelphia pass catchers figure to be lower moving forward. That said, the Eagles have a juicy Week 7 matchup on Monday, Oct. 26 against the Cowboys, whose defense ranks in the bottom-10 in the league in fantasy points allowed per game to wide receivers. | |
| 10/19/2026 7:07:00 PM | Cross (illness) is active for Monday night's game against the 49ers. |
| Cross was a full participant in all three practices during Week 6 prep, and the fifth-year defensive back has been cleared by medical staff to return from a three-game absence due to an internal injury. His return means Quan Martin will revert to a depth role in the secondary for Monday night's game. | |
| 10/19/2026 5:51:00 AM | Cousins completed 23 of 41 passes for 313 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Raiders' 33-30 loss to the Bills on Sunday. |
| Cousins completed a season-low 56.1 percent of his passes, but the veteran signal-caller went toe to toe with Josh Allen and nearly helped Las Vegas force overtime, at minimum, with a 17-point fourth quarter. Cousins first led a 15-play, 70-yard march that culminated in a Matt Gay field goal beginning in the latter portion of the third quarter, and he subsequently recorded 11- and 44-yard scoring strikes to Tre Tucker. While the Raiders came up just short, Cousins posted his second-highest passing yardage tally of the campaign and threw multiple TD passes for the fifth time in six contests. Cousins will face off with another marquee passer in Matthew Stafford when the Rams pay a visit for a Week 7 interconference showdown Sunday. | |
| 10/18/2026 3:13:00 PM | O'Connell (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Raiders' emergency third quarterback against the Bills on Sunday. |
| O'Connell remains the third option behind Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza. The quarterback will only enter the game if both Cousins and Mendoza must leave the contest due to injury, illness or ejection. | |
| 10/18/2026 1:39:00 PM | Washington caught four of 11 targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Texans. |
| Despite leading the Jaguars in targets, Washington finished second to Jakobi Meyers in both catches and receiving yards, and he wasn't on the other end of any of Trevor Lawrence's four TDs. It's the third time in the last four games that Washington has failed to reach five grabs or 70 yards, but the fourth contest featured a 6-124-2 line from the fourth-year wideout. Washington will take a 26-416-4 line on 46 targets into a bye before facing the Colts in Week 8. | |
| 10/18/2026 1:31:00 PM | Tuten carried the ball 12 times for 39 yards and caught all four of his targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Texans. |
| While the Houston front seven kept him bottled up on the ground -- Tuten's longest run went for just five yards -- the second-year RB made an impact through the air, turning a dump pass from Trevor Lawrence into a 27-yard score in the second quarter before catching another two-yard TD before halftime. The receiving touchdowns were his first of the season and tied his total from all of 2025, and Tuten topped 80 scrimmage yards for the fourth straight game. The Jaguars will get a bye before facing the Colts in Week 8. | |
| 10/15/2026 2:28:00 PM | Brooks (core) was seen jogging at practice Thursday, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports. |
| Brooks appears to be making incremental progress in his recovery from core muscle surgery, though he wasn't in uniform Thursday and has yet to be cleared for participation in practice drills while he remains on injured reserve. The 2024 second-round pick has suited up for just five of a possible 38 regular-season games in his career and will miss a minimum of two additional games before he's eligible to return, though his absence could linger beyond then. Chuba Hubbard has worked as the clear lead back for the Panthers, with AJ Dillon (ankle) siphoning off less work than Brooks had been prior to getting hurt. | |
| 10/12/2026 11:13:00 AM | Reichard made all three of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries during the Vikings' 23-13 win over the Saints on Sunday. |
| Reichard got the Vikings on the board early in the first quarter on a 40-yard field goal before connecting on kicks from 54 and 55 yards in the second and fourth quarter, respectively. Reichard has made at least three field goals in each of his last four games and is 15-for-15 on field-goal tries through five games, which is second-best in the NFL behind Spencer Shrader (16-for-16). Reichard is also one of five kickers who have made at least five field goals from 50-plus yards. The Vikings will be on a bye for Week 6 before welcoming in the Colts for Week 7 on Sunday, Oct. 25. | |
| 10/11/2026 5:58:00 PM | Burrow completed 23 of 32 passes for 190 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed four times for 10 yards in the Bengals' 31-24 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. |
| Burrow averaged only 5.9 yards per attempt and finished with a season-low passing yardage total, but he offset the modest numbers by throwing a season-high number of touchdown passes. The prolific signal-caller benefited from having both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins available after each carried questionable designations into Sunday, and he connected with Mike Gesicki (four yards), Samaje Perine (six yards), Tanner Hudson (two yards) and Ja'Marr Chase (45 yards) for his quartet of scoring tosses. Burrow spread the ball around to nine different targets overall, and he'll take an 11:3 TD:INT into a Week 7 road matchup against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 25, following a Week 6 bye. | |
| 10/6/2026 9:12:00 PM | Rodriguez recorded 18 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's 15-10 loss at Minnesota. |
| In a contest where the Dolphins' offense couldn't get much going, their defense was on the field for a whopping 78 snaps, and Rodriguez played all of those. The end result was the second-highest single-game tackle total in franchise history and the highest by a rookie in franchise history. He's second in the NFL in total tackles on the season going into a Week 5 matchup versus the Bengals. | |
| 10/4/2026 3:22:00 PM | James (coach's decision) is inactive against Denver on Sunday. |
| The second-year pro will observe Sunday's game from the sidelines while the 49ers roll with two active running backs in Christian McCaffrey and rookie Kaelon Black. James' next chance to play is Week 5 against the Seahawks on Sunday, Oct. 11. | |
| 10/1/2026 9:07:00 PM | Wilson (thumb) was a full participant at the Cardinals' practice Thursday, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports. |
| Wilson was added to the injury report with a thumb injury Wednesday, ultimately logging a limited practice. The linebacker now appears to be good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Giants after increasing his participation Thursday. | |
| 9/18/2026 11:20:00 PM | Bernard logged five tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night. |
| The linebacker was limited during Tuesday's practice session with a calf injury, but he played all 65 snaps in Thursday's victory. The highlight of the defensive captain's night came when he dropped Jahmyr Gibbs in the backfield for a one-yard loss during the second quarter. | |
| 9/15/2026 11:17:00 PM | Crosby had two tackles (one solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Dolphins. |
| Crosby didn't do much in the first three quarters of the contest, though it was a different story in the fourth quarter, with the veteran accounting for 1.5 of the Raiders' 5.0 sacks on the day. It was an interesting offseason for Crosby, who was nearly traded to Baltimore. He also underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. However, Crosby looks to be back at full strength, and he appears more motivated than ever, which isn't good news for opposing offenses. | |
| 3/24/2026 5:43:00 PM | The Bengals and Flacco agreed to a one-year contract Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports |
| Flacco kicked off last season as the Browns' No. 1 quarterback, completing 93 of 160 passes (58.1 percent) for 815 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions in four starts. Cleveland then dealt him to Cincinnati, where he proceeded to fill in for the injured Joe Burrow. In six more starts with his new team, Flacco racked up 1,636 yards and a 13:4 TD:INT on 61.6 percent passing. Once Burrow recovered from his turf toe injury, Flacco saw only spot action down the stretch of the 2025 campaign, a role he figures to fill again this season as long as the former remains healthy. | |
