Bhayshul Tuten Misses Practice on Wednesday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle, foot) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, according to Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union. Tuten was a game-time decision for last Thursday's win over the Baltimore Ravens, but he ultimately was active. However, he played a season-low 36% of the offensive snaps and tied a season low with 12 rushing attempts for only 29 yards. He did not have a target in the passing game for the first time all year, but he somewhat salvaged his fantasy day with his fourth rushing touchdown of the season. The 23-year-old's status is once again up in the air for the Jaguars' Week 10 divisional clash against the Tennessee Titans, although things could be cleared up in the next two days. Backfield mate Chris Rodriguez Jr. (hand) is also on the injury report this week due to a hand injury, but he was limited on Wednesday. Tuten has been a must-start in fantasy football lineups in 2026 as the Jags' top RB, but managers must be ready to pivot in case his ankle and foot injuries slow him down again or keep him out entirely against Tennessee. C-Rod would be a plug-and-play RB if Tuten is out or limited in Week 10.

Nico Collins Continues to Produce for Texans
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has put together a productive 2026 campaign so far. He leads the Texans with 384 receiving yards and also leads the team in receiving touchdowns with four. Collins also ranks second on the team in receptions with 28, behind only tight end Dalton Schultz (35 receptions). Collins, who has drawn 39 total targets in 2026, missed two games earlier this season due to a hamstring injury. Most recently, Collins caught all four of his targets for 55 yards (13.8 yards per reception) and a touchdown in a 44-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. Collins has recorded at least 55 receiving yards in six out of his seven appearances this season. According to RotoBaller, Collins averages 12.9 fantasy points per game in half-PPR scoring settings, ranking 13th in the NFL. Collins and the Texans have a matchup with the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. The Browns have one of the stoutest passing defenses in the NFL, allowing just 201.0 passing yards per game, which ranks sixth in the league. Still, RotoBaller ranks Collins as its No. 15 wide receiver for Week 10 (half-PPR), and he should safely remain in all starting lineups.

Gabe Vincent Holds Talks with the Kings
The Sacramento Kings have held talks this week with free-agent guard Gabe Vincent, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line. Sacramento also agreed to sign veteran center Mason Plumlee, bringing the roster to 14 standard contracts. Vincent split last season between the Lakers and Hawks, averaging 4.4 points and 1.4 assists in 16.6 minutes across 53 appearances. Even if the 30-year-old lands a deal, minutes could be hard to find behind Darius Acuff Jr., Zach LaVine, and Malik Monk. Vincent would mainly provide veteran backcourt depth and wouldn't carry much fantasy appeal without injuries ahead of him.

Jakobi Meyers Remains a Reliable Target for Jaguars
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) remains involved in the passing game each week. He ranks second on the team in receiving yards (354), tied for second in targets (37), third in receptions (26), and tied for third in touchdown receptions (two) in 2026. Meyers is behind only fellow wide receiver Parker Washington in yards and targets, and is behind Washington and tight end Brenton Strange in receptions. Most recently, Meyers earned six targets in a 33-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 9, and recorded four receptions for 65 yards (16.3 yards per catch). Meyers and the Jaguars get a Week 10 matchup with a Tennessee Titans defense that allows 258.3 passing yards per game, which ranks second-to-last in the NFL. The Titans also allow 24.9 points per game (22nd in the NFL). Meyers ranks as RotoBaller's No. 30 wide receiver for Week 10, and he has a favorable matchup against the Titans.

Luka Doncic Exits with Ankle Injury
Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (ankle) left Wednesday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks late in the fourth quarter after landing on Kyle Kuzma's foot. Doncic stayed in to complete the and-one free throw before heading to the locker room, and the Lakers have yet to announce a diagnosis. The NBA's leading scorer had already put together another strong outing before exiting. With Austin Reaves (heel) also leaving Wednesday and Quentin Grimes (finger) sidelined, Collin Sexton and Cameron Carr could be asked to handle larger backcourt roles if Doncic misses Sunday's game against Phoenix.

Is Cam Ward Finally Finding His Footing with Titans?
It hasn't been the smoothest of starts to the NFL career of Tennessee Titans quarterback Cam Ward, who has a record of just 4-21 through his first 25 professional games, but Ward's most recent outing provided plenty of promise and showed off his talent. The Titans are coming off of a bye week in Week 9, but in a 43-36 overtime loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8, Ward set new career highs in passing yards (304) and rushing yards (41), while tying his career high in touchdown passes with two. Ward completed 26 out of 40 passing attempts (65%) against the Bengals, and averaged 7.6 yards per attempt. He also averaged 5.9 yards per carry on seven rushing attempts. Ward has a Week 10 matchup against a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that allows 229.0 passing yards per game (22nd in the NFL), but also only gives up 15.1 points per game (second in the league). Ward ranks as RotoBaller's No. 25 quarterback for Week 10.

Mason Plumlee Signs with the Kings
The Sacramento Kings are signing veteran center Mason Plumlee, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The 36-year-old enters his 14th NBA season after averaging 1.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in 8.6 minutes across 20 games with Charlotte and San Antonio last year. Sacramento needs frontcourt depth with Maxime Raynaud (knee) out and Precious Achiuwa (lower leg) dealing with a contusion. Plumlee averaged 4.5 points and 6.1 rebounds in 17.6 minutes for Phoenix in 2024-25, which is a better picture of his ceiling if he earns a regular run. His arrival could eventually squeeze Dylan Cardwell's minutes after the rookie grabbed 11 rebounds in 29 minutes Tuesday.

Tyrese Haliburton Sidelined for at Least 10 More Days
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (hamstring) is making progress, but a return is still at least 10 days away. Head coach Rick Carlisle said Wednesday that Haliburton's left hamstring is improving and told reporters to check back on his status in 10 days. The 26-year-old averaged 21.8 points, 9.5 assists, and 4.5 rebounds through four games before suffering the strain Oct. 26 against Milwaukee. Andrew Nembhard should remain Indiana's primary playmaker in the meantime, while Quenton Jackson can continue to pick up extra backcourt minutes. T.J. McConnell also gives the Pacers another ball-handler now that he's back from his own hamstring injury.

Pierre Strong Jr. Could Be In Line for Sizable Role with Packers
Green Bay Packers running back Pierre Strong Jr. could potentially see an uptick in his usage following a broken finger injury to starting running back Josh Jacobs. Strong led Green Bay's backfield in snaps played (30) in a 45-27 win over the New England Patriots in Week 9. Strong rushed eight times for 22 yards (2.8 yards per carry) and recorded two receptions for 11 yards (5.5 yards per reception). However, Strong was out-touched 14-to-10 by fellow tailback Kaleb Johnson, and Johnson was the preferred ball carrier with 14 carries for 68 yards (4.9 yards per carry) and a touchdown against the Patriots. With that said, Strong appeared to be favored on passing downs, as he was in on 15 passing plays compared to eight for Johnson, according to Pro Football Focus. Jacobs is expected to miss at least two to three weeks after breaking his right ring finger. Meanwhile, running back MarShawn Lloyd (knee) missed the game against the Patriots, but returned to practice on Wednesday without an injury designation ahead of a Week 10 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. Fellow tailback Chris Brooks (ankle) remains on injured reserve, but is designated to return, and he was a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Still, Strong should continue to see reps for the Packers with Jacobs out.

Stephen Curry Won't Return Wednesday with Abdominal Soreness
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (abdomen) was ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's matchup with the Houston Rockets due to right abdominal soreness. Curry grabbed at his right side after landing on a first-quarter three-pointer and headed to the locker room just six minutes into the game. The 38-year-old entered Wednesday averaging 30.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in his 18th season. If Curry is forced to miss additional time, Brandin Podziemski should take on more creation duties, while De'Anthony Melton could move into a larger backcourt role. Curry's next chance to return comes Friday at San Antonio.

Austin Reaves Won't Return Wednesday with Heel Injury
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Austin Reaves (heel) was ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks due to a left heel injury. Reaves limped to the locker room after attacking the basket and did not return. The 28-year-old had just come back from a one-game absence caused by an illness after dropping a season-high 43 points against Detroit on Sunday. Any extended absence would leave more backcourt work for Collin Sexton, while Luka Doncic would take on an even larger share of the Lakers' playmaking. Reaves' status will be worth tracking before Los Angeles' next game.

Braden Atkinson Not Expected to Play This Weekend
Oregon State quarterback Braden Atkinson (hand) is not expected to play as the Beavers take on Boise State this weekend, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel. Atkinson is dealing with a hand injury he sustained in the third quarter of a loss to Texas State last week. Atkinson leads the country with 3,169 yards passing, while he's completed 65.8% of his passes. He's thrown 25 touchdown passes against just three interceptions, while he has also recorded a couple of touchdowns rushing. If Atkinson can't play, Maalik Murphy will likely get the call for Oregon State. Murphy has completed 16 of 19 passes for 156 yards and a touchdown this season.

De'Zhaun Stribling is Getting Closer to a Return
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle) remains on the Injured Reserve heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Stribling has been sidelined since needing surgery on his ankle following an injury during the season opener. There is little hope for Stribling playing in Week 10, but the 49ers didn't rule out opening his practice window at some point. The 49ers are willing to open his practice window if Stribling continues progressing. They could certainly use his help with how banged up the team is at wideout right now. It doesn't sound like he'll be ready soon, but fantasy managers shouldn't rule out Stribling returning before the end of the season.

Caleb Wilson Exits with Right-Hand Injury
Chicago Bulls forward Caleb Wilson (hand) was ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's matchup with the San Antonio Spurs after injuring his right hand. Wilson went to the locker room in the third quarter and did not return, adding another concern after he broke his right thumb at North Carolina last season. The No. 4 overall pick entered Wednesday averaging 19.3 points and 6.3 rebounds through nine games. Any extended absence would be a major blow to Chicago's frontcourt, with Patrick Williams and Noa Essengue among the players who could see more minutes.

MarShawn Lloyd Not on Wednesday's Injury Report
Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Lloyd will be back in the mix after missing last week's victory over the New England Patriots due to a knee injury. The expectation is that Lloyd will see increased reps with Josh Jacobs (finger) expected to miss multiple games. The Packers are likely going to use a committee approach, so Lloyd's overall fantasy value is tough to gauge. Fantasy managers should consider him a low-end flex option for a tough matchup against the Vikings in Week 10.
