New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) was upgraded to a limited participant in practice on Thursday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Stevenson suffered a knee injury in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers that was expected to sideline him for a couple of weeks. He did not practice on Wednesday, but he returned to the field on Thursday and is reportedly trying to play on Sunday in Munich, Germany, against the Detroit Lions. TreVeyon Henderson (illness) has already been ruled out for a third straight game, so if Stevenson is not cleared to suit up this weekend, the Patriots will be down to Corey Kiner as the leader of their backfield against Detroit. Stevenson will likely need to upgrade to a full practice on Friday to avoid a questionable tag going into the weekend, and as of now, fantasy managers should not be getting their hopes up that he will play in Week 10 and command his typical snap share in the Patriots' backfield. The 28-year-old has been New England's clear backfield leader in 2026 with Henderson's struggles and injuries, carrying the ball 102 times for 399 yards (3.9 yards per attempt) and two touchdowns while adding 26 catches for 258 yards and two more scores on 31 targets across nine games. If Stevenson defies the odds and plays against Detroit, he will be more of an RB3/flex at risk of losing valuable snaps and touches to Kiner.--Keith Hernandez

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, per Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky. Spears has been sidelined since Week 6 by a knee injury, but it appears he could have a chance to return in Week 10 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Across six games in 2026, Spears has recorded 141 scrimmage yards on 33 touches. The 25-year-old's fantasy upside is very limited due to the presence of Titans RB1 Tony Pollard. However, if Spears can play against Jacksonville, Pollard would likely see less work as a pass-catcher out of the backfield.--Will Brady

Charlotte Hornets forward/center Grant Williams (hamstring) is set to make his regular-season debut Thursday against the Phoenix Suns. Williams has been sidelined with a right hamstring injury sustained during offseason on-court activity. He averaged 7.0 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.6 assists in 19.8 minutes across 36 games last season while shooting 38.8 percent from three-point range. Williams offers limited fantasy value and is best left on the waiver wire in most leagues as he works his way back into the rotation.--Andrew Lennox

Tennessee Titans rookie first-round wide receiver Carnell Tate (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Tate was seen working off to the side on Thursday, but he has yet to practice this week with the rest of the team as the Titans come off their bye to face the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. If the 21-year-old fourth overall pick from Ohio State does not return to practice in some capacity on Friday, he could be ruled out for the second straight game. If Tate misses another game, Wan'Dale Robinson, Calvin Ridley, and Elic Ayomanor would operate in three-wide sets again for Tennessee as they look to pull off the upset on the Jaguars at home. Tate has quickly become the most valuable receiver on the Titans in fantasy in his first year in the NFL, catching 34 of his 51 targets for 413 yards and one touchdown in his first seven games played, but he looks to be on the wrong side of questionable in Week 10, and fantasy managers should not bank on him returning to action this weekend to face Jacksonville. Check back on Friday to see if the young pass-catcher can return to practice.--Keith Hernandez

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (knee) practiced in full Thursday, Sheena Quick reported. Legette last played in Week 2 at Atlanta, when he caught two passes for 64 yards and hurt his knee at the end of a 55-yard catch. Carolina opened his return window Wednesday and estimated him as a full participant for its walkthrough. He remains on injured reserve as the Panthers prepare for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Offensive coordinator Brad Idzik said Thursday that sending Legette downfield is the easiest way to work him back into the offense. Idzik also said Legette will have to earn his snaps after John Metchie III and Brycen Tremayne contributed in his absence. Metchie has 14 catches for 154 yards and a touchdown, and Tremayne has picked up a first down on all seven of his receptions. Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker each played at least 80% of the offensive snaps against Denver, so Legette can stay on waivers in 12-team leagues until he starts seeing regular targets.--Bruno Mulé

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks (groin) completed a full practice Thursday, according to Sheena Quick. The Panthers opened his return window Wednesday and listed him as a full participant on their estimated report after a walkthrough. Brooks remains on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He has missed six games since aggravating the injury at Atlanta in Week 2 and undergoing core muscle surgery. Brooks can stay on fantasy benches if Carolina activates him for Week 10. Chuba Hubbard returned to full practice Thursday after resting Wednesday. He played 89% of the offensive snaps against Denver and has handled 49 touches over the past two games, including 11 catches. Trevor Etienne had two carries on seven offensive snaps against the Broncos and is listed as Carolina's lead punt returner this week. Brooks ran nine times for 30 yards in two games before going on injured reserve. His 48-yard catch on a deep pass from Bryce Young in the opener against Chicago accounted for most of his 73 yards from scrimmage.--Bruno Mulé

Charlotte Hornets center Moussa Diabate (quadriceps) is available for Thursday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns after missing the last two games with right quadriceps tendinopathy. The 24-year-old is averaging 8.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.6 steals in 28.8 minutes through nine outings. Ryan Kalkbrenner took on a larger role during Diabate's absence but will likely see fewer minutes with him back, reducing his streaming appeal.--Andrew Lennox

Texas quarterback Arch Manning has a tough matchup ahead in Week 11 against LSU, but based on what he's done the past two weeks, he remains a quality starting option. Manning has three touchdown passes and no interceptions in each of the past two games, while throwing for at least 220 yards in each game. He's up to 2,024 passing yards and 18 touchdowns on the season. Manning has completed 66.1% of his passes, while being picked off seven times. The QB has also rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns across 76 attempts. LSU allows only 261.1 total yards and 17.7 points per game, so this will be a tougher test for Manning. Fantasy owners should temper expectations for him, but he's still a solid starting option because of how he's trending of late.--Morgan Rode

Philadelphia 76ers forward LeBron James (back) is unavailable for Thursday's matchup against the Toronto Raptors due to low back/sciatica management. James will rest after appearing in 10 of the team's first 12 games, averaging 15.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 1.3 steals in 32.6 minutes per contest. With James sidelined and Joel Embiid (foot) questionable, Dean Wade and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope could see extra minutes, giving both some appeal in deeper fantasy leagues.--Andrew Lennox

Arizona State running back Cardae Mack has a pretty good fantasy outlook for his Week 11 matchup against UCF. The Knights are giving up 26 points and 379 total yards per game, and 133.8 of those yards are coming on the ground. Mack has 102 rushing attempts on the season, racking up 603 yards and six touchdowns. He also has 13 receptions for 123 yards and another score. Mack has 23 or more carries in three straight appearances, so he's a good fantasy option on that alone. All six of his touchdowns came in just two games combined though, so that holds him back some. Heading into a favorable matchup, Mack is a quality starting option for Week 11, and that goes for all leagues.--Morgan Rode

Indiana wide receiver Charlie Becker continues to deliver at a pretty good level, so he's a good fantasy starting option for Week 11. He'll be taking on USC, which allows 346 total yards and 24.2 points per game this season. Becker is coming off a big showing in Week 9 against Minnesota - he caught eight passes for 149 yards and a touchdown. He's up to 875 yards and nine scores over 50 receptions on the season. Becker has at least three receptions in every contest and has 50 or more yards in all but one appearance. He remains a quality starting option for Week 11 as the top pass-catching target for the Hoosiers.--Morgan Rode

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington leads the team with 55 targets, 493 receiving yards and five touchdown catches. He is a WR2 in 12-team PPR leagues for Sunday's trip to the Tennessee Titans, who have allowed a league-high 40.7 PPR points per game to wide receivers through Week 9. Washington has drawn at least seven targets in three of his last four games after reaching that mark once in his first four. The exception was the 42-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts, when Trevor Lawrence threw 14 passes and Washington drew two targets. He led Jacksonville with seven targets four days later against the Baltimore Ravens, catching two passes for 61 yards and a touchdown. Jakobi Meyers (ankle) drew six targets against Baltimore and missed Wednesday's practice. On the 50-yard score, Washington lined up in the slot and cut across the safety as Baltimore sent an all-out blitz. Six of Washington's 10 red-zone targets have come in his last four games, and he's scored three touchdowns over that same stretch.--Bruno Mulé

Kentucky tight end Willie Rodriguez has been a pretty solid fantasy asset of late, and he's lined up pretty well to keep things rolling in Week 11. His matchup is Florida, which allows 367.2 total yards and 27.6 points per game on the season. Rodriguez has caught 45 passes for 405 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing four times for six yards and another score on the season. Rodriguez has at least one touchdown in three straight games, and he's caught five or more passes in five straight. At a tight end spot where consistency is hard to find, Rodriguez has been a quality option most weeks. That remains the case for Week 11, meaning he should be starting in a lot of leagues again.--Morgan Rode

Alabama quarterback Keelon Russell (ankle) could be in for a big fantasy showing against Vanderbilt in Week 11, but first he needs to be cleared to play. He's listed as probable, and most expect him to play. The Commodores are allowing 359.1 total yards, but 29.4 points per game, so Russell's outlook will be high if he can play. The QB has 2,263 passing yards and 18 touchdowns while completing 67.3% of his passes so far this season. Russell has been picked off five times, while also having rushed for 276 yards and five scores over 74 attempts. Russell is a good weekly fantasy option, and that remains true in Week 11, as long as he is cleared to play.--Morgan Rode
