Minnesota Vikings running back
Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) was able to log a limited practice on Thursday after being held out of practice on Wednesday due to toe and shoulder injuries. Jones Sr. suffered an AC joint sprain in his shoulder during his team's Week 9 win over the Detroit Lions that forced him to exit the game early. However, he appears to be trending in the right direction heading into Minnesota's Week 10 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Across four games played this season, the 30-year-old has recorded 218 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 34 touches. If Jones Sr. can't go against Baltimore, Vikings running backs
Jordan Mason and
Zavier Scott would likely split backfield work. Assuming Jones Sr. is cleared to play, he profiles as a high-end fantasy RB3/flex option in Week 10.

Miami Dolphins rookie running back
Ollie Gordon II (ankle) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday due to an ankle issue. Gordon injured his ankle during Miami's Week 9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Before Week 9, the 21-year-old appeared to be carving out a role in the Dolphins' offense. In Miami's Week 8 win over the Atlanta Falcons, Gordon II recorded season-highs in touches (11) and scrimmage yards (66). For the year, Gordon II has logged 152 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 46 touches. If he is sidelined in Week 10,
Jaylen Wright would likely take over as Miami's RB2 behind
De'Von Achane. Even if Gordon II is active on Sunday, the game script in a tough matchup against the Buffalo Bills may make it difficult for Miami to feed him the ball on early downs. The rookie profiles as a deep-league flex option at best in Week 10.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Joshua Palmer (knee, ankle) logged his second straight limited practice on Thursday due to knee and ankle issues. The 26-year-old has not played since Week 6, and his status for Buffalo's Week 10 matchup against the Miami Dolphins remains up in the air. Across the six games he's played in this season, Palmer has recorded 14 catches for 234 yards on 20 targets. If he remains sidelined for Week 10, it could help the target outlooks for wide receiver
Khalil Shakir and tight end
Dalton Kincaid. Even if Palmer is active, the limited target volume he earned before getting injured makes it difficult for fantasy managers to trust him as a starting wide receiver.

Chicago Bears wide receiver
DJ Moore (hip, groin) practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday after being held out of practice on Wednesday, per The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Chicago has been careful with Moore in early-week practices as he nurses hip and groin ailments, but he looks to be on track to play in Week 10 against the New York Giants. The 28-year-old has recorded at least 72 receiving yards in two straight games after failing to reach that mark in any of his first six contests. Overall, Moore has recorded 30 catches for 403 yards and a touchdown on 44 targets across eight games. Assuming he's cleared to play, Moore profiles as a low-end fantasy WR2 in a favorable matchup against the Giants in Week 10.

Chicago Bears wide receiver
Rome Odunze (ankle/heel) practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday, per The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Odunze followed a similar practice pattern last week and was able to play in Week 9, so he appears to be trending toward playing in Week 10 against the New York Giants. The 23-year-old is coming off his worst game of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals, as he was held without a reception on three targets. Odunze has been much better for the season overall, recording 31 catches for 473 yards and five touchdowns on 59 targets across eight games. Assuming he's cleared to play, Odunze profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 10 against the Giants.

Chicago Bears rookie running back
Kyle Monangai (ankle) was able to practice in full on Thursday after being limited with an ankle injury on Wednesday, according to The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Monangai is on track to be available this weekend for a Week 10 tilt against the visiting New York Giants, but the 23-year-old's fantasy value will take a sizeable hit if
D'Andre Swift (groin) can return after missing the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Swift upgraded to a full practice on Thursday, suggesting he's on track to play against New York. Monangai broke out in the lead-back role for Chicago last Sunday, totaling 198 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on his 29 touches. Even if Swift returns, Monangai is a strong handcuff option for fantasy managers, and he could even carve out some RB3/flex appeal going forward if the Bears get him more involved alongside Swift moving forward.

Chicago Bears tight end
Cole Kmet (concussion) was limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday, but he upgraded to full participation on Thursday, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. Kmet is on the right track to clearing the league's concussion protocol and playing this Sunday against the visiting New York Giants after he suffered a concussion in the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old caught only one of his two targets for 10 yards in that game before leaving. Meanwhile, rookie
Colston Loveland broke out to the tune of six receptions, 118 yards, and two touchdowns on seven targets. Although it appears that Kmet is trending in the right direction to play in Week 10, Loveland's big Week 9 performance may catapult him into TE1 duties in Chicago for the second half of the season. Kmet has a modest 10 catches for 142 yards and one touchdown on the year.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver
Luther Burden III (concussion) was a full participant in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday, according to The Athletic's Kevin Fishbain. Burden was unable to play in last week's win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to a concussion he suffered the week prior, but with two full practices under his belt this week, it should only be a matter of time before he's cleared to return in Week 10 against the visiting New York Giants. Fellow wideouts
DJ Moore (groin, hip) and
Rome Odunze (ankle, heel) have been nursing injuries as well, but they shouldn't be in danger of missing this weekend's game. The 21-year-old Burden, a second-round pick in April, has shown glimpses of being a star, but he just hasn't had enough playing time to be a realistic starting fantasy option. He had a 100-yard game back on Sept. 21 and also found the end zone, but Burden has only cleared 50 yards one other time and doesn't have more than four catches or four targets in a game in 2025.

Chicago Bears running back
D'Andre Swift (groin) is trending in the right direction to make his return in Week 10 against the New York Giants on Sunday after upgrading to a full practice on Wednesday, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. Swift was limited in Wednesday's practice after he was held out of the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to a lingering groin issue. The 26-year-old is feeling much better and said that he plans to be active this weekend. With Swift out last Sunday, rookie
Kyle Monangai filled in nicely, going for 198 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 29 touches in a pristine matchup. Monangai could be mixed in more often going forward to make sure Swift remains healthy, but if Swift returns against the G-Men, Monangai will become a much riskier RB3/flex in fantasy. Swift should be Chicago's RB1 if he's back this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
A.J. Brown (hamstring) is back at the first practice of the week on Thursday following the team's bye, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic. A hamstring injury kept Brown from suiting up in the Week 8 win over the New York Giants, but it appears the week off to rest did the 28-year-old some good, and he has a real chance to return for a Monday night showdown at the Green Bay Packers in Week 10. It's been a frustrating 2025 season for Brown and his fantasy managers. He started the year great with a 121-yard performance and two touchdowns before not scoring again until Sept. 21 against the Los Angeles Rams, his second 100-yard game of the year. In the two games before the Week 9 bye, Brown had six combined catches for 35 yards and no scores. Fantasy managers are hoping Brown can rebound with a solid showing in Week 10 at Lambeau Field if he's active on Monday.

Philadelphia Eagles running back
Saquon Barkley (groin) is taking part in the team's first practice of the week coming off their bye on Thursday, according to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. Barkley was forced to leave the team's Week 8 win over the New York Giants in the third quarter due to a groin injury, but after the game, the 28-year-old was confident that he'd be ready to roll following the Week 9 bye. The fact that Barkley is practicing on Thursday is a good sign that he'll be ready to play on Monday night against the Green Bay Packers in Week 10, but we'll continue to monitor his status closely in the coming days. Barkley hasn't been nearly as good this year as he was in his first year in Philly in 2024, but he remains a must-start in all fantasy lineups when he's healthy. He had 18 touches for 174 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in Week 8 before suffering his groin injury.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
DeVonta Smith caught 15 of his 20 targets for 267 yards and a touchdown in the two games before the team's Week 9 bye. With fellow wideout
A.J. Brown (hamstring) out in the Week 8 win over the New York Giants, Smith led the team in catches (six), targets (nine), and receiving yards (84). The 26-year-old is a must-start regardless in fantasy football lineups, even if Brown can return on Monday night against the Green Bay Packers. But if Brown misses a second straight game, Smith will have WR1 upside in an Eagles passing game that was looking much better before the bye. Through the first nine weeks of the 2025 season, Smith has caught 44 passes for 588 yards and two touchdowns on 55 targets. Keep him locked into your starting lineups this week despite a challenging matchup on the road at Lambeau Field on Monday.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Treylon Burks made his 2025 season debut in the Sunday night loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9. The former first-rounder by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 out of Arkansas caught his only target for 14 yards, but he played 51% of the offensive snaps and could have a bigger role moving forward with
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) expected to miss more time. The 25-year-old was a major bust in Tennessee and had a hard time staying on the field due to injuries, but perhaps a change of scenery is what he needed. Burks could see more targets this coming weekend when the Commanders take on the visiting Detroit Lions, but fantasy managers in deeper leagues should temper their expectations with veteran quarterback
Marcus Mariota back in the starting role, with
Jayden Daniels dealing with a dislocated left elbow.

New England Patriots wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) is missing from practice for a second straight day this week on Thursday due to a hamstring injury that forced him from the Week 9 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, according to Taylor Kyles. Boutte is trending in the wrong direction to play in this weekend's contest on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers unless he can return to practice on Friday in some capacity. The 23-year-old's momentum was halted by his injury on Sunday, as he was unable to pull in his only target before leaving and never returning. In the three games leading up to Week 9, Boutte was on the rise, with 10 catches on 12 targets for 223 yards and four touchdowns. If Boutte misses Week 10 action,
Stefon Diggs and
DeMario Douglas will be the Pats' top receivers, with tight end
Hunter Henry also seeing a boost in fantasy value.

New England Patriots running back
Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) missed a second consecutive practice on Thursday ahead of the team's matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Stevenson missed last week's matchup with the Falcons, which led the way to a breakout performance for
TreVeyon Henderson. Stevenson is trending in the wrong direction for this week's matchup, making Henderson a must-start this week. Look for the Patriots to mix their rookie back into the passing game to maximize touches for their electric weapon. Stevenson owners should continue to watch injury reports throughout the weekend.
