| 10/21/2026 7:55:00 PM | Bosa (calf) Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com in Wednesday's practice. |
| Bosa remains sidelined with a calf injury he suffered during the 49ers' Week 2 win over the Dolphins. Coach Kyle Shanahan hopes Bosa will practice Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Shanahan's statement makes it seem like Bosa has an outside chance to play in Sunday's contest against the Falcons. If the defensive end cannot, he will have to wait until after the 49ers' Week 8 bye to return to the field. | |
| 10/21/2026 1:40:00 PM | Jacobs remains uncertain to play Sunday at Detroit, with head coach Matt LaFleur saying, "We'll see. We'll work through it," Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports. |
| Despite Jacobs being removed from the commissioner's exempt list Monday, the Packers have a one-game roster exemption for the running back that expires Monday, Oct. 26. As such, Jacobs currently doesn't count against Green Bay's active roster, and the team won't have to officially include him among its Week 7 inactives if the exemption still stands as of Sunday. In the event Jacobs doesn't play this weekend, MarShawn Lloyd, Pierre Strong and Kaleb Johnson will be the options out of the Packers backfield. | |
| 10/20/2026 10:41:00 PM | Trotter recorded 12 total tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers. |
| Trotter was sharp again in Week 6, registering double-digit stops for the third time this season while playing every defensive snap in the loss. The linebacker has now registered 52 total tackles (27 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a pick-six over five games to open the 2026 campaign. | |
| 10/20/2026 9:36:00 PM | Bolton recorded 11 total tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 22-6 win over the Chargers. |
| Bolton led the team in takedowns, notching double-digit tackles in a game for the third time this season. The linebacker has now registered 48 total tackles (23 solo) and two passes defensed over five contests to open the 2026 campaign. | |
| 10/19/2026 11:48:00 PM | Purdy completed 21 of 29 passes for 264 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while adding five rushes for 28 yards in the 49ers' 23-17 win over the Commanders on Monday night. |
| Purdy took multiple sacks for the second straight game after not being taken down over the first four contests, but the veteran signal-caller otherwise had a mostly clean night that included a robust average of 9.1 yards per attempt. Purdy's passing yardage total also was his third highest of the campaign, and he kept his season-long touchdown-pass streak alive when he connected with George Kittle on an 11-yard scoring strike to cap off the opening drive of the night. Purdy completed passes to seven different targets overall, and he now boasts a 14:2 TD:INT heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Falcons on Sunday. | |
| 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 10:15:00 PM | Carlson made two of his three field-goal attempts and all four PATs in the Saints' 34-27 win over the Giants on Sunday. |
| Carlson made field goals from 51 and 58 yards while missing a 55-yard kick in the second quarter. Despite the miss, the kicker accounted for 10 of the Saints' 34 points and displayed a strong leg throughout the contest. | |
| 10/19/2026 10:18:00 AM | Hurts (calf) is expected to be held out of football activities for multiple months and miss the rest of the season after new imaging over the weekend revealed several blood clots in his lungs, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports. |
| Initially diagnosed with a superficial blood clot after being cleated in the left calf in an Oct. 4 loss to the Rams, Hurts had been cleared by doctors to play in Week 5 in the Eagles' loss to the Jaguars in London before more recent testing last week showed that the blood clot had moved. According to a statement released Monday by his agent, Nicole Lynn, Hurts now has been diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis in the left calf, as well as bilateral pulmonary emboli. Hurts has gone on blood thinners to treat the blood clots, and while his prognosis is good and he's not expected to face any long-term health effects, he won't be able to participate in football activities until he's off blood thinners. With that in mind, Hurts isn't expected to make a push for a late-season return from injured reserve and instead will turn his focus toward returning to full health in 2027. The Eagles will move forward with Tanner McKee, Cole Payton and Joe Milton as their options at quarterback. | |
| 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. | |
| 10/19/2026 5:45:00 AM | McKee completed 26 of 45 passes for 215 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding one carry for no gain in the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday. He also recovered a fumble. |
| McKee's completion total was impressive, but he averaged a modest 4.8 yards per attempt on the afternoon despite having DeVonta Smith back from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury. McKee's longest completion of the day went for 19 yards to Smith on a fourth-quarter scoring strike, which brought Philadelphia to within five at the time. McKee ultimately wasn't able to complete the comeback in the first installment of what figures to be an extended starting assignment in place of Jalen Hurts (IR, calf), and he'll look to be more aggressive during a Week 7 home divisional clash with the Cowboys next Monday night. | |
| 10/19/2026 4:22:00 AM | Henderson (ankle) rushed seven times for 31 yards and brought in his only target for nine yards in the Patriots' 26-19 win over the Jets on Sunday. He also lost a fumble. |
| Henderson beat the odds by suiting up for Sunday's contest despite what has been reported to be a high-ankle sprain. He was just five yards short of backfield mate Rhamondre Stevenson's rushing total despite seeing half the carries, but Henderson's mid-third-quarter fumble did lead to a Jets field goal. Henderson now has a quick turnaround for a Week 7 road matchup against the Bears on Thursday night, so it appears likely he slots into a complementary role again for that contest. | |
| 10/19/2026 2:05:00 AM | Wilson brought in four of six targets for 44 yards in the Jets' 26-19 loss to the Patriots on Sunday. |
| Wilson had an early catch and then had a quiet middle portion of the game before rounding out his line some in the fourth quarter. Wilson still finished with modest production overall, as his reception and receiving yards totals were both his second lowest of the campaign. Geno Smith has undergone his fair share of struggles in his return to New York this season, but Wilson remains his top target with 48 looks from the veteran signal-caller over the first six games. Wilson will take a 35-418-3 line into a Week 7 home matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday. | |
| 10/18/2026 10:07:00 PM | Warren carried the ball 14 times for 50 yards and caught two of four targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 26-19 overtime win over the Buccaneers. |
| While Warren still led the Steelers' backfield, his touch volume and production took a dip as Rico Dowdle returned from a three-game absence due to a toe injury, with Dowdle turning 10 touches into 49 scrimmage yards. As long as coach Mike McCarthy insists on using a timeshare between the two, Warren will be hard-pressed to repeat the outstanding numbers he compiled while Dowdle was on the shelf. Warren will try to make a bigger impact in Week 7 against the Saints in Paris. | |
| 10/18/2026 9:35:00 PM | Likely caught six of 11 targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints. |
| The tight end came through with another big performance and connected with J.J. McCarthy on a 24-yard TD in the fourth quarter after the young QB had replaced Jameis Winston under center. It's reassuring that Likely remained involved even after the switch at quarterback, and he's seen double-digit targets in three straight games, delivering a 24-259-3 line on 36 targets as the team's No. 2 pass catcher behind Malik Nabers. Likely will look to keep rolling in Week 7 against the Texans, regardless of who is throwing him the ball. | |
| 10/18/2026 8:57:00 PM | Nabers caught 12 of 15 targets for 165 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints. |
| Jameis Winston got benched in favor of J.J. McCarthy in the fourth quarter after throwing his second interception of the day, but Nabers stayed busy no matter who was under center for the Giants, leading the team in catches, targets and receiving yards. The third-year wideout topped 100 yards for a third straight game, a stretch in which he's racked up a 29-398-2 line on 42 targets, but a potential full-time switch to McCarthy under center will create a little extra uncertainty for Nabers heading into a Week 7 tilt against the Texans. | |
| 10/18/2026 7:51:00 PM | McBride caught seven of nine targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Rams. |
| McBride led the Cardinals in catches, receiving yards and targets as Arizona pulled off the upset on the back of six field goals. The star tight end led the NFL with 42 catches through five weeks and has at least seven receptions in every game this season. McBride is up to 49 catches for 361 yards and three touchdowns on 65 targets as the top option in the passing game for the Cardinals heading into a Week 7 home game against the Broncos. | |
| 10/18/2026 7:40:00 PM | Taylor carried the ball 21 times for 94 yards and a touchdown and caught two of four targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Titans. He also lost a fumble. |
| For the fourth time in six games, Taylor came up just short of 100 rushing yards, but his 151 scrimmage yards were a season high, and he got into the end zone for the seventh time in 2026 on a four-yard run in the fourth quarter. His fumble was one of three Indy turnovers on the day, however, and it was Taylor's second lost fumble of the year. While he's on pace for double-digit TDs once again, Taylor's 4.0 YPC would be the worst mark of his career. He'll try to find another gear in Week 7 against the Vikings. | |
| 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 1:20:00 PM | Harrison caught three of four targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jaguars. |
| Making his Texans debut, Harrison wasn't especially productive on his own, but quarterback C.J. Stroud seemed to benefit from his presence and spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers. The three grabs still tied Harrison's season high, giving him something to build on as he looks to put his disappointing Cardinals tenure behind him. The two former Ohio State teammates will look to re-buiild their chemistry further in Week 7 against the Giants. | |
| 10/18/2026 12:26:00 PM | Payton is active as the backup to starting quarterback Tanner McKee in Sunday's game against the Panthers. |
| A rookie fifth-round pick out of North Dakota State, Payton has yet to make his NFL debut, but he's one step closer to doing so after Jalen Hurts (calf) was placed on injured reserve Saturday. Payton had slotted third or fourth on the depth chart through the first five games of the season, but he'll be dressing as the No. 2 option Sunday while McKee draws his third career NFL start. Since he's set to become a free agent after the season and may not be viewed as the Eagles' long-term plan at the backup quarterback spot, McKee could be in danger of losing his grip on the starting job if he struggles in his extended snaps while Hurts remains out indefinitely. Payton could be someone to keep an eye on if the Eagles decide to give him a look at any point, as he displayed intriguing rushing skills during his collegiate career and gained 45 yards on three carries during his limited preseason action. | |
| 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 7:06:00 PM | Gordon rushed 18 times for 88 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 31-24 loss to the Bengals on Sunday. |
| Gordon turned in a useful fantasy performance in the lead role once again, even as he navigated a brief exit from the game due to an undisclosed injury in the second half. The second-year back was able to still handle a robust workload despite the Dolphins trailing for the majority of the game, and he finished with a new career high in rush attempts. Gordon also recorded a rushing touchdown for the third straight game when he went in from one yard with just over eight minutes remaining in the first quarter, and he should continue to helm Miami's ground attack in a Week 7 road matchup against the Jets on Sunday, Oct. 25, following a Week 6 bye. | |
| 10/9/2026 9:06:00 PM | Campbell (knee) does not have an injury designation against the Jaguars on Sunday. |
| Campbell tweaked his knee during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams, but the second-year linebacker was able to log a full practice Friday, which was enough for him to fade an injury tag for Sunday's road game. Campbell has 37 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through the first four games of the regular season. | |
| 10/6/2026 9:04:00 PM | Cashman recorded eight tackles (three solo) and a fumble recovery during Sunday's 15-10 win versus the Dolphins. |
| In a game where Miami's offense simply couldn't stay on the field, Cashman only played 38 defensive snaps. Nevertheless, he managed to rack up seven-plus tackles for his 15th straight contest going back to last season. He's a solid IDP consideration in most formats going into a Week 5 tilt at New Orleans. | |
| 9/23/2026 10:49:00 PM | McFadden (neck) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice estimate, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. |
| McFadden missed the Giants' Week 2 loss to the Rams due to a neck injury. The linebacker was not able to log more than a limited practice session during Week 2 prep, a benchmark McFadden has already surpassed with his estimate of full participation Wednesday. Absent any setbacks, the 26-year-old should be healthy enough to suit up for Sunday's game against the Titans. | |
| 9/23/2026 12:30:00 AM | Jones did not attempt a pass and lost two yards on two end-of-game kneel-down plays during Sunday's 35-13 victory over the Dolphins. |
| The 49ers had no trouble building a comfortable lead throughout the contest, leading to Jones coming in to mop up over the final two series. The 28-year-old is coming off a sound 2025 campaign, throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns and six interceptions while completing a career-best 69.6 percent of his attempts. While Jones is considered one of the better backup quarterbacks in the NFL, his fantasy ceiling is virtually non-existent as long as Brock Purdy is healthy. | |
| 9/18/2026 7:21:00 PM | Van Ginkel (chest) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official site reports. |
| Van Ginkel was a limited participant in the Vikings' Wednesday and Thursday practices before returning to full participation Friday. The linebacker has recovered from his chest issue enough to be cleared and is all set to suit up for Sunday's divisional contest against the Bears. Van Ginkel logged 1.5 sacks in last Sunday's divisional win over the Packers, putting the 31-year-old on pace to best his single-season record of 11.5 sacks set in the 2024 regular season. | |
