Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus (quadricep) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He was a full participant in practice this week and didn't get added to the injury report until Saturday. Once he was added, though, the team listed him as doubtful, indicating that he likely wouldn't play.
Lucas Havrisik, who is 6-for-6 on extra points and 4-for-4 on field goals this year, will kick in his absence.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
Drake London (illness, back) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Carolina Panthers. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. London has missed just one game this year, catching 53 passes for 691 yards and six touchdowns through eight contests. He ranks as the overall WR6 in fantasy points this year and should continue to be started in all leagues.

During a 10-minute meeting with Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, wide receiver
A.J. Brown vowed that he'll stop complaining about the offense on social media, according to Sal Paolantonio of ESPN. Brown's meeting with Lurie was described as "highly unusual" and occurred during Thursday's practice after security chief Dom DiSandro ushered him to the owner. Brown has made his displeasure known this season, most recently complaining about the state of the Eagles' offense during a live stream on Twitch. While Brown vowed to stop complaining publicly, Lurie told him that he didn't need to apologize for his actions. The receiver explained that he "just wants to be a part of the offense and is frustrated," and the two hugged as the meeting ended. The 28-year-old has been underwhelming with 31 catches, 408 yards, and three touchdowns this season, but his frustration has stopped short of a trade request. In fact, he remains under contract through 2029, though it's possible that Philadelphia could bring his name up in trade talks next offseason. For now, though, he'll remain with the Eagles, looking to bounce back from a 10-week span that saw him rank as the overall WR39 in fantasy football. His first opportunity to get back on track will come on Sunday in Week 11 against the Detroit Lions.

Chicago Bears running back
Kyle Monangai will face an unfavorable matchup while operating out of a split backfield during Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. Monangai has impressed in his rookie season, tallying 390 rushing yards, 83 receiving yards, and two touchdowns. He's also two weeks removed from a 29-touch, 198-yard outing with
D'Andre Swift sidelined. Now, though, Swift is healthy, and the two seem to have joint roles in the Bears' backfield. This is conducive to fantasy scoring against weaker opponents, but against a team like the Vikings, it might render Monangai tough to trust in lineups. Monangai had just seven carries for 28 yards last week, salvaging his outing with a touchdown, and now, he'll face a Vikings defense allowing the 11th-fewest fantasy points and third-fewest receiving yards to opposing running backs in 2025. Monangai is a low-end RB3/flex in deeper formats, and he can probably be benched in leagues with 12 or fewer teams for fantasy managers who have other options instead.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Jaylin Lane (hip) exited during the second quarter of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Miami Dolphins. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught just one pass for 13 yards. Washington continues to be quite short-staffed at the wide receiver position, losing Lane in addition to the existing absences of
Terry McLaurin (quad),
Noah Brown (groin, knee), and
Luke McCaffrey (shoulder).
Robbie Chosen and
Chris Moore will fill Lane's void alongside
Deebo Samuel Sr.--Andersen PickardSource: Zach Shelby

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Keon Coleman (coach's decision) will be a healthy scratch ahead of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. His absence is described as a coach's decision, but he's not being benched for performance-based reasons. In fact, Coleman reportedly had a strong week of practice. However, the coaching staff "wants to see more from him in other areas," according to Schultz. The 22-year-old has been relatively underwhelming in his second pro season, catching 32 passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns with one lost fumble through nine games.
Mecole Hardman and
Gabe Davis are expected to handle more opportunities in the passing game behind
Khalil Shakir,
Joshua Palmer,
Elijah Moore, and
Curtis Samuel.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Lucas Havrisik is back and will handle all kicking duties during Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. Havrisik will be active on gameday with
Brandon McManus (quad) listed as doubtful and not expected to play. The 26-year-old appeared in two games earlier this year while filling in for McManus, and he certainly impressed, going 6-for-6 on extra points and 4-for-4 on field goals, including one from 50+ yards out. The Arizona product has shown that he has a strong, powerful leg, and he should immediately return to the top-12 fantasy kicker range with McManus sidelined. Havrisik doesn't have long-term fantasy value, but he's an incredibly strong streamer for Week 11.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back
Kenneth Gainwell continues to trend up ahead of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Gainwell is coming off a game against the Chargers that saw him play 52 percent of the offensive snaps, which was his third-highest mark of the season so far. Despite out-snapping
Jaylen Warren, he had just two catches and zero carries. We expect to see Gainwell handle a sizable snap share once again after head coach Mike Tomlin told the media that Warren cannot occupy an every-down role. Whether this means the backfield will gradually shift to Gainwell remains to be seen. The comments are promising for Gainwell's managers, but it's too early to inject him into lineups after he touched the ball just twice last week. For now, he remains a bench stash.

Denver Broncos running back
Jaleel McLaughlin is expected to carve out a significant role on offense after
J.K. Dobbins (foot) was placed on injured reserve and ruled out for the rest of the season. At first glance, it would seem that McLaughlin, who has been a healthy scratch in nine of 10 games this season, will merely slot into the No. 3 running back role and fail to play meaningful snaps. However, in reality, he's expected to operate behind
R.J. Harvey as a change-of-pace back, while
Tyler Badie plays passing downs. McLaughlin's rushing ability earned the praise of head coach Sean Payton, who said that the running back is "ready" despite being a healthy scratch for most of the year. McLaughlin has shown flashes of upside before, such as when he handled 26 carries over the final two weeks of last season. The 25-year-old is capable of handling moderate volume, and he's an appealing deep-league stash in case the Broncos rotate him in to avoid putting too much wear on tear on Harvey, who is a rookie.

Denver Broncos running back
Tyler Badie should operate as the backup to
R.J. Harvey for the remainder of the 2025 season. Fellow running back
J.K. Dobbins (foot) was placed on injured reserve and is done for the year, leaving Harvey in line to lead the backfield while Badie also takes on a larger role. The 25-year-old has been involved recently, playing at least 20 percent of the snaps in four of his last five games. However, during that span, he has just five catches and one carry. Most of Badie's fantasy appeal will come in deeper PPR leagues, but his exact role is a bit unclear given that Harvey is very capable of catching passes, too. Badie is a fine speculative stash in deeper leagues for the time being, but it's too early to trust him in fantasy lineups despite the elevated role.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Jakobi Meyers will operate atop the depth chart for the second week in a row after NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is not expected to play in Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Meyers made his Jaguars debut last week after being acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders at the trade deadline. He caught three passes for 41 yards despite playing a modest 44 percent of the offensive snaps. As Meyers gets more comfortable in his new offense, he'll play more snaps and earn more targets. We should see his involvement trend upward this Sunday, especially with Thomas out of the picture. Meyers continues to rank as a decent WR3/flex play.

Miami Dolphins quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa's future with the team is tied to whether head coach Mike McDaniel returns for the 2026 season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Owner Stephen Ross wants McDaniel to remain the head coach in 2026, but he'll make a decision on the coach's future based on how the players respond over the final weeks of the season. Rapoport pointed out that last week's win over the Bills was a step in the right direction, and similar morale-boosting victories could help save McDaniel's job. Rapoport also reported that Tagovailoa would remain the starting quarterback if McDaniel returns as head coach next season, and his future with the team is a lot more murky if McDaniel isn't in the picture. The 27-year-old has thrown a career-high 13 interceptions this year, but he's also averaging a respectable 1.7 touchdowns per game despite losing
Tyreek Hill (knee) to a season-ending injury.

There appears to be no change in the dynamic between the Philadelphia Eagles and wide receiver
A.J. Brown, who is still frustrated about the offense, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Brown is expected to continue making comments critical of the Eagles' offense, with Garafolo noting that many have been loosely directed at quarterback
Jalen Hurts. Most recently, Brown expressed displeasure on a live Twitch stream. The prominent receiver did meet with owner Jeffrey Lurie following the Twitch stream, but he did not apologize for his comments. While the relationship between team and player appears messy, Garafolo reports that Brown had similar criticisms of the offense last year, but it didn't stop the team from winning a Super Bowl. It remains to be seen just how far this saga goes and whether it could result in the Eagles trading Brown next offseason, despite having him signed through 2029.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Parker Washington (hamstring) has been cleared to suit up for the Week 11 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Washington was limited on Thursday and Friday, but that was enough to clear him for this contest. Washington has seen a significant boost in targets over the last few weeks. Over the last three games, Washington has been targeted 26 times, which is a huge increase from what he was seeing earlier in the season. The expectation is that Washington will continue seeing a high volume of targets with
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) unavailable. Washington has done enough recently to be considered a low-end WR3.

Denver Broncos running back
RJ Harvey is set to be the lead back for the foreseeable future. Fellow back
J.K. Dobbins (foot) was placed on the injured reserve earlier this week. That means, Harvey figures to be the lead back for at least the next four games. Fantasy managers can finally unleash Harvey after watching him be stuck in a committee for the first 10 games of the season. Given the Broncos lack of viable options, Harvey figures to have a significant role during the Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Fantasy managers should be able to plug him in as a RB2 this weekend.
