Justice Hill Active In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (foot, hamstring), who was listed as questionable to play in Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, is officially active on Sunday. Hill returned from a turf-toe injury in the Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns, but he played just seven offensive snaps and saw three carries for 33 […]

Derek Carr Officially Active For Week 5

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) is officially active for Week 5 despite being listed as questionable. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network previously reported that Carr "is in a better place health-wise than last week" when he went 23-for-37 with 127 yards, zero touchdowns, and one fumble lost. Carr was initially expected to be inactive for […]

Zay Jones Questionable To Return Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones (knee) is questionable to return against the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. The receiver injured himself in the third quarter of Sunday's game. At the time of his departure, Jones had caught three of five targets for 23 yards and one touchdown. It's worth noting that Jones was questionable […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Active Against Saints

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (thigh) is officially active for Week 5 on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints after being listed as questionable to play. The 25-year-old practiced on a limited basis throughout the week and was never really in danger of sitting out this weekend. Stevenson should maintain his lead-back role […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Officially Active

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) is officially active for the Week 5 divisional clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Beckham missed the last two games after injuring his ankle in Week 2, but he was fully expected to return this week and he will be on the field alongside Rashod Bateman […]

Josh Reynolds, Jameson Williams Active For Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receivers Josh Reynolds (groin) and Jameson Williams (non-injury) are active for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Both players had been listed as questionable. Reynolds, Williams, and Kalif Raymond should all see more opportunities in Amon St. Brown's (abdomen) absence, though Reynolds has the most fantasy appeal of the bunch. It's worth […]

Jahmyr Gibbs, Amon-Ra St. Brown Officially Inactive Sunday

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) are officially inactive for Week 5 versus the Carolina Panthers. Both players had been listed as doubtful, so their absences come as no surprise. David Montgomery will continue to handle lead-back duties with Gibbs sidelined and could be in line for […]

Saquon Barkley Officially Inactive For Week 5

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 5 versus the Miami Dolphins. He had been listed as questionable, though the expectation was that he would not suit up. Barkley will miss yet another week due to his high-ankle sprain, giving Matt Breida his third consecutive start. Despite the expanded […]

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5: Jonathan Taylor, Alexander Mattison, Brandon Aiyuk

Bye weeks begin in Week 5, making start-or-sit decisions tougher for fantasy managers. It's time for last-minute lineup swaps ahead of the Week 5 slate. Jonathan Taylor, Alexander Mattison, and Brandon Aiyuk are all hot names ahead of Sunday's games. Taylor is set to return from the PUP list, Mattison has been underwhelming, and Aiyuk […]

Rashaad Penny Doubtful For Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Rashaad Penny (illness) has been added to the injury report and is doubtful to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Penny hasn't played a down since Week 2, so his absence won't shake things up too much on offense. Look for D'Andre Swift to start, Kenneth Gainwell to carve […]

Jonathan Taylor, Zack Moss To Split Snaps Sunday

Indianapolis Colts running backs Jonathan Taylor and Zack Moss are expected to split snaps in Week 5 versus the Tennessee Titans, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Taylor is making his season debut after spending four weeks on the PUP list, so Indianapolis will ease him back into action by giving Moss a steady dose of […]

Chase Claypool To Remain Inactive For Week 5

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chase Claypool will be inactive for Sunday's game against the New York Giants, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

John Metchie III Expected To Play In Week 5

Houston Texans wide receiver John Metchie III (illness) is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Metchie had been listed as questionable but seemed likely to play after practicing in full on Friday. However, the young receiver is not on the fantasy radar as he remains […]

Houston Texans offensive tackles Laremy Tunsil (knee) and Tytus Howard (hand) are both expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (quadricep) will undergo a series of pre-game tests to determine whether he can play versus the New York Jets on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert (ankle) is expected to miss several weeks after suffering a concerning injury in Thursday's win over the Washington Commanders, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Herbert departed that contest after rushing 10 times for 76 yards, and although he said postgame that he was "fine," the injury appears to […]

Derek Carr Expected To Play Versus Patriots

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) is expected to suit up in Week 5 despite being listed as questionable.

Jameson Williams To Have Limited Role Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is expected to have a limited role in Week 5 as he makes his season debut following a four-game suspension.
