NFL has reinstated 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk from Reserve/Left Squad
The NFL has reinstated San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk from the Reserve/Left Squad list, per Tom Pelissero of The Ringer. Pelissero also reports that the league has granted San Francisco a two-week roster exemption, giving the team a brief window to make a roster move. Aiyuk has not appeared in an NFL game since tearing his ACL midway through the 2024 season. While he is apparently healthy and looking to get back into the league, it seems unlikely that he'll be welcomed back in San Francisco after essentially abandoning the team for the 2025 campaign. Aiyuk was a very productive player in his last fully healthy season in 2023, recording 75 catches for 1,342 yards and seven touchdowns on 105 targets across 16 games. Aiyuk could be worth stashing in deeper fantasy leagues just in case he winds up in a new situation and gets back on the field for the second half of the 2026 season.

Odell Beckham Jr. Signed to Vikings Active Roster Ahead of MNF
The Minnesota Vikings have signed veteran wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to their active roster ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. After opening the 2026 season with the New York Giants, Beckham Jr. has spent most of the year on the Vikings' practice squad but has yet to see game action. The 34-year-old played in three games with the Giants to start the year, but saw just one target and did not record a reception. With Vikings wideout Jauan Jennings (calf) out against Buffalo, Beckham Jr. could be Minnesota's WR3 behind star wideouts Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. It's been a while since Beckham Jr. held any fantasy relevance, as he was out of the NFL in 2025 and recorded just nine catches across nine games with the Miami Dolphins in 2024. Still, he could be worth adding in deeper fantasy leagues if he plays well against the Bills on Monday night.

Michael Wilson Out for Season with Neck Injury
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson (neck) is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season with a neck injury, per Darren Urban of azcardinals.com. While the exact nature of Wilson's injury is not yet clear, it's apparently a serious enough issue that it will sideline him for an extended period of time. The 26-year-old has been Arizona's WR1 in 2026, recording 51 catches for 546 yards and two touchdowns on 88 targets across nine games. While the Cardinals still have star tight end Trey McBride as the top option in their passing game, the team's wide receiver room is now in dire straits. With Wilson and veteran wideout Kendrick Bourne (ankle) out, Arizona's wide receiver depth chart is currently topped by the uninspiring trio of Devin Duvernay, Simi Fehoko, and Reggie Virgil. Virgil was the most productive of the three in the Cardinals' Week 9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, recording one catch for 25 yards on four targets.

Ja'Kobi Lane a Deep-League Stash Candidate Following QB Change
Across five games in 2026, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane has recorded nine catches for 89 yards on 14 targets. Like the rest of the Ravens offense, Lane had a miserable day in Baltimore's Week 9 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, going without a target or a reception. However, the Ravens should get better quarterback play going forward after trading for veteran signal-caller Jacoby Brissett. While Brissett can't replace the injured Lamar Jackson (thumb), his presence may lead to Baltimore becoming a more pass-heavy team. Across 20 starts over the last two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, Brissett has averaged 39.5 pass attempts per game. If Brissett continues his high-volume passing in Baltimore, Lane could be the beneficiary. In deeper fantasy leagues, Lane could be worth stashing off the waiver wire ahead of Baltimore's Week 10 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Packers Not Ruling out Placing Josh Jacobs on Injured Reserve
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur did not rule out the possibility of the team placing running back Josh Jacobs (finger) on Injured Reserve when asked on Monday, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Jacobs suffered a finger injury during Green Bay's Week 9 win over the New England Patriots that will require surgery and could lead to him being sidelined for an extended stretch. The 28-year-old missed the first six weeks of the 2026 season while on the NFL's Commissioner's Exempt List, but he's functioned as Green Bay's workhorse back since returning in Week 7. After Jacobs got hurt against New England, Packers back Kaleb Johnson took over and recorded 14 carries for 68 yards and a touchdown. With Jacobs sidelined, Johnson could be a top waiver wire target for fantasy managers heading into Green Bay's Week 10 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings.

Konata Mumpfield a Top Waiver-Wire Option Amid WR Injuries in L.A.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Konata Mumpfield has played a limited role in his team's offense so far this season, recording 11 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown on 23 targets across nine games. However, Mumpfield could soon be in for a significant increase in his target share. The Rams are already without wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring), who is on Injured Reserve with a hamstring injury. The team may also have lost star wideout Puka Nacua (knee), who suffered a knee injury in the Rams' Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders and is expected to undergo an MRI on Monday. If Nacua is out for any extended stretch, Mumpfield could emerge as the WR1 in Los Angeles. Pending further updates on Nacua's status, Mumpfield profiles as a priority waiver wire target for fantasy managers ahead of Week 10.

David Montgomery Making Progress Toward Return to Practice
Houston Texans running back David Montgomery (groin) could resume practicing this week or next, according to Aaron Wilson, who reported that head coach DeMeco Ryans is pleased with Montgomery's progress. Montgomery has missed three games since hurting his groin against the Tennessee Titans in Week 5. He did not practice at all in Week 9 and was ruled out on Friday's final report before Houston beat the Los Angeles Chargers. Houston visits the Cleveland Browns on Sunday and hosts the Indianapolis Colts four days later, so a return to practice next week would come on a short week. Montgomery is worth keeping on the bench while Houston sorts out the carry split. He had 20 carries to Woody Marks' nine and scored three total touchdowns in his Houston debut against the Buffalo Bills, but averaged eight carries over his next four games. Marks has had at least 15 carries in each of Montgomery's three absences, totaling 52 for 192 yards. He led Houston with 18 carries for 70 yards against the Chargers.

Samaje Perine Gaining Waiver-Wire Appeal Amid Growing Role in Cincinnati
Across eight games in 2026, Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine has recorded 249 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 54 touches. The 31-year-old has spent most of the season to this point in a reserve role behind Bengals RB1 Chase Brown. However, Brown has struggled so far in 2026, recording career lows in both yards per carry (3.9) and yards per touch (4.3). In Cincinnati's Week 9 win over the Atlanta Falcons, the team split touches evenly between Perine (11) and Brown (12). If that trend continues, Perine could move into flex territory for fantasy managers as a consistent piece in one of the NFL's most potent offenses. In deeper leagues, Perine could be worth targeting on the waiver wire heading into Week 10.

Broncos Could Add Offensive Help Before Trade Deadline
The Denver Broncos enter their Week 10 bye at 7-2 with the NFL trade deadline set for 2 p.m. MT on Tuesday, Nov. 10. DNVR's Zac Stevens pointed to running back, tight end, and the offensive line as areas Denver could address. He floated Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor and Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert as possible fits. After Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers, head coach Sean Payton said Denver would discuss what's available. Indianapolis is open to trading Taylor and has held discussions with multiple teams, per NFL Network. A Taylor trade to Denver would cut into Jonah Coleman's role. With RJ Harvey (knee) on injured reserve, Coleman has turned 36 touches into 192 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns over the past two games. He started Sunday and outcarried J.K. Dobbins 17 to four. Goedert would compete for receiving work with Evan Engram, who leads Denver's tight ends with 17 catches for 169 yards. Goedert has 31 catches for 308 yards and two touchdowns with Philadelphia this season.

Michael Pittman Jr. Nearing Return, Status Unclear for Sunday
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) is getting close to a return, but head coach Mike McCarthy had no definitive answer Monday on whether Pittman would play Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to Nick Farabaugh. Pittman stayed in Pittsburgh during the bye and rehabbed at the team facility through Friday. He went on injured reserve Oct. 10 and is eligible to return in Week 10 after missing four games. Pittman said during the bye that he had resumed running and hoped to play in the first game after the break. He had seven catches for 89 yards in three starts, with 58 of those yards coming in the opener against the Atlanta Falcons. Pittman caught two passes for 16 yards in the first meeting with Cincinnati. Pittman is a bench hold in deeper PPR leagues even if he returns Sunday. Germie Bernard caught at least five passes in three of the four games Pittman missed, finishing that stretch with 25 catches for 224 yards and a touchdown.

Josh Jacobs Set for Finger Surgery, Could Miss Up to Three Weeks
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (finger) is set to undergo surgery this week and is expected to miss up to three weeks, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. Green Bay has a Week 11 bye between Sunday's home game against the Minnesota Vikings and a Wednesday, Nov. 25, visit to the Los Angeles Rams. Jacobs fractured his right ring finger in the first quarter of Sunday's win over the New England Patriots and did not return after four carries for five yards. Head coach Matt LaFleur said Jacobs had trouble gripping the ball after the injury. With MarShawn Lloyd (knee) inactive, Kaleb Johnson ran 14 times for 68 yards and a touchdown. Pierre Strong Jr. played more offensive snaps, finishing with eight carries for 22 yards and two catches for 11 yards. Johnson is the Green Bay back to prioritize on waivers if Jacobs sits against Minnesota. He got the call from two yards out and scored in the second quarter, though half his rushing yards came on one 34-yard run in the fourth.

Andrei Iosivas Doing Well, Not Ruled Out for Week 10
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said on Monday that wide receiver Andrei Iosivas (thumb) is doing well, and they will "continue to work through this week and see where it ends up," according to Laurel Pfahler. Iosivas has been on Injured Reserve since Sept. 26 after having left-thumb surgery, but it sounds like the Bengals are leaving the door open for the 27-year-old to potentially return this weekend against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. Dohnte Meyers has been serving as the Bengals' WR3 in Iosivas' absence, but it has not led to any real standalone fantasy value behind Pro Bowl pass-catchers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Iosivas had only three catches on four targets for 19 yards without a touchdown in the first two games of the 2026 season before injuring his thumb. In the big shadows of both Chase and Higgins, Iosivas belongs on the waiver wire in most fantasy football leagues, even when he is back to full health.

Quentin Johnston Is a Speculative Week 10 Add After First Touchdown
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston scored his first touchdown of the season Sunday, taking a short pass from Justin Herbert 58 yards against Houston. It was his only catch on four targets. Three receptions of at least 44 yards account for 159 of his 260 receiving yards this season. Rostered in 31% of Yahoo leagues, Johnston is worth a low-cost bench claim in 12-team half-PPR leagues that start three receivers. Ladd McConkey (back) was active but never took a snap after experiencing spasms during warmups. Johnston still drew the same four targets he saw with McConkey in the lineup against the Rams a week earlier. Tre' Harris drew a team-high seven targets against Houston after seeing three against the Rams. Harris and Johnston each played 60 offensive snaps on Sunday. Herbert injured the middle finger on his non-throwing hand in the fourth quarter and said he plans to play Monday night at Baltimore. Backup DJ Uiagalelei targeted Harris on two of his seven passes in relief and did not throw to Johnston.

Todd Monken Not Naming a Starting QB Yet for Week 10
Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken is not naming a starting quarterback yet for Sunday's home game against the Houston Texans in Week 10, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. "I really haven't thought through it other than getting through this morning's tape. We just got done meeting with the guys; they'll flush the game, and then we'll have a chance to meet offensively more extensively a little bit later today," Monken said. This is a direct contradiction to an earlier report from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler that suggested that Deshaun Watson (concussion) is expected to start against the Texans as long as he clears the league's concussion protocol. Watson was inactive on Sunday in the overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints, and second-year QB Shedeur Sanders had a mostly positive showing, throwing for 297 yards and two touchdowns on 19-for-31 passing in his first start in 2026. Watson threw for over 300 yards in each of his last two starts, but he has not thrown for a touchdown in his last three games and leads the league with 33 sacks taken. We might have a QB controversy brewing in Cleveland, with neither signal-caller registering as much more than a low-end QB2 option in superflex leagues.

Colts Haven't Ruled Out Trading Daniel Jones Before Deadline
When speaking to the media on Monday, Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen would not confirm if the team has told quarterback Daniel Jones that he will not be traded, according to Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan. The Colts reportedly informed Jones on Saturday that he will not be moved by Tuesday's trade deadline, according to The Ringer's Tom Pelissero, but that does not mean that the 29-year-old signal-caller will not be on the move if the Colts receive an offer too good to pass up. Jones has been one of the worst starting QBs in the NFL through the first half of the 2026 season after coming off a torn Achilles tendon late last year. His disappointing second year with the Colts continued in the Week 9 loss in a plus matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, as Jones went 20-for-34 passing for only 180 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. It has not helped Jones' cause that he has been without top wideout Alec Pierce (heel) for most of the year, and the receiver remains out for the foreseeable future. Still, Jones will have more QB2 streaming appeal this weekend if he remains with the Colts past Tuesday's deadline for a Week 10 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

Jonathon Brooks' Week 10 Status is TBD
Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales said on Monday that the team is taking the next two days to discuss running back Jonathon Brooks' (abdomen) status, according to Mike Kaye of ESPN. Brooks has been on Injured Reserve due to a core-muscle injury since Week 2, but he was seen working off to the side during practice last week and could have his 21-day practice window opened on Wednesday. If the 23-year-old former second-rounder from Texas is officially cleared to return to practice this week, he could be a candidate to come off IR to play this weekend on the road against the division-rival New Orleans Saints. Despite Brooks' lengthy injury history -- he has torn his ACL twice since entering the NFL -- he is worth stashing as an RB handcuff to Chuba Hubbard in Carolina's backfield for the rest of the season. If he is unable to gain clearance to return in Week 10, Brooks' next chance to play will come in a Week 11 tilt at home against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 22. In the first two games this year before his injury, Brooks had only nine carries for 30 yards (3.3 yards per attempt) and two catches for 43 yards (21.5 yards per reception) as a receiver.

Treylon Burks Optimistic to Play Thursday vs. Giants
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Monday that the team is optimistic about the chances for wide receiver Treylon Burks (foot) to play against the division-rival New York Giants on Thursday Night Football to kick off Week 10 action, according to Tashan Reed of The Washington Post. Burks missed an opportunity to work as Washington's WR2 in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the visiting Los Angeles Rams on Sunday due to a foot injury. The 26-year-old sounds like he will return on Thursday night, though, which will make him a deep-league flex option coming off his foot injury. In Burks' absence on Sunday against L.A., veteran Van Jefferson surprisingly led the Commanders in receiving with five catches on seven targets for 58 yards and the only receiving touchdown of the day. If Burks returns on Thursday against the G-Men, he will be competing for targets with Jefferson, Stefon Diggs, and rookie Antonio Williams. The former first-rounder in 2022 by the Tennessee Titans has only 12 grabs on 22 targets for 233 yards and two touchdowns in six games in 2026, but the opportunity for a bigger role for the rest of the year with Terry McLaurin (knee) out for the season makes him an interesting deep-league stash.
