New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn continued his non-committal approach on Friday when asked by reporters if he's considering a change at quarterback after the team's Week 11 loss to the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. "I'm evaluating everything," Glenn said. The head coach said he's not looking for a "short-term spark," and his decision will be based on "what gives them the best chance to win."
Justin Fields started hot on Thursday and had a decent day for fantasy managers thanks to his 67 rushing yards and touchdown on the ground, but he threw for only 116 yards, lost a fumble, and left a lot to be desired in a 27-14 loss. The 26-year-old has finished under 100 yards passing in four games this year, including under 50 yards passing three times. He hasn't had much help in the passing attack, but it's looking more likely that veteran
Tyrod Taylor might get the start in Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens.

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said on Friday that he expects wide receiver
Garrett Wilson (knee) to play again this year, but Glenn also added that it's up to the doctors, according to Antwan V. Staley of the New York Daily News. Wilson missed several games with a knee injury before returning in the Week 10 win over the Cleveland Browns, only to aggravate his knee. The Jets placed the 25-year-old on Injured Reserve this week, so he'll be forced to miss at least the next three games following the team's Thursday night loss to the New England Patriots. He won't be eligible to play before Sunday, Dec. 14, against the Jaguars. With Wilson out for the foreseeable future,
John Metchie III and
Adonai Mitchell figure to be featured as the team's top pass-catchers in what has been the worst passing offense in football this year. Fantasy managers stashing Wilson need to know that there's a chance he won't contribute again in 2025.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said on Friday that quarterback
Lamar Jackson (knee) is a full-go for Sunday's contest against the division-rival Cleveland Browns in Week 11. There was some concern over Jackson's status after he did not practice on Wednesday, but he was only dealing with a sore knee and returned to a full practice the following day. The 28-year-old two-time MVP missed some time earlier this year with a hamstring strain, but this weekend will be his third game back in action. The four-time Pro Bowler currently leads the NFL in touchdown percentage (10.2), adjusted yards gained per pass attempt (10.23), and passer rating (127.1) while throwing for 1,249 yards, 15 touchdowns, and only one interception in six starts. Despite facing a decent Browns defense, Jackson is a no-doubt, must-start at the QB position in fantasy.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end Oronde Gadsen (knee) is not on the team's final injury report on Friday and has been cleared to play in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, according to the team. Gadsden bruised his knee in Sunday night's victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers and never returned, but he ended up avoiding a serious issue and will be available this weekend when the team heads to the East Coast to face the Jags. The 22-year-old should continue to have a key role in L.A.'s passing attack, and he could see even more targets head his way if receiver
Quentin Johnston (shin) is limited or out on Sunday. Gadsden has burst onto the scene quickly in his first year in the NFL and is currently the TE12 in half-PPR scoring with 35 catches, 466 receiving yards, and two touchdowns in his first eight NFL games.

The Los Angeles Chargers have listed wide receiver
Quentin Johnston (shin) as questionable to play in Week 11 against the hosting Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Johnston has been limited in practice this week after apparently picking up a shin injury in Sunday night's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. We'd be surprised if the 24-year-old former first-rounder is unable to play this weekend, but fantasy managers will want to check back on Sunday morning to confirm it. The good news is the Chargers play in the early window at Jacksonville in Week 11. Although most of Johnston's damage in 2025 came early on, he did have double-digit targets in Week 10 for the second time this year, and he's scored six touchdowns already. If he's active, Johnston still has plenty of boom potential for fantasy managers as a WR3/flex.

New York Giants head coach Mike Kafka said on Friday that he thinks rookie quarterback
Jaxson Dart (concussion) is "on track" with where he's supposed to be in the league's concussion protocol, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN. Dart was seen warming up with the team on the field in practice on Friday, which is a good sign that he might be cleared to play in Week 12 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, he will not be available to play this Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Veteran QB
Jameis Winston, not
Russell Wilson, will make the start in Week 11, and he's expected to be without receiver
Darius Slayton (hamstring). Fantasy managers will be hoping that Dart will end up missing just one game. The rookie first-rounder has immediately become fantasy relevant as a QB1 because of his dual-threat abilities at the position.

Carolina Panthers running back
Rico Dowdle (quadriceps) was removed from Friday's final injury report and will play on Sunday against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons in Week 11, according to Darin Gantt of Panthers.com. Dowdle missed practice on Wednesday for the second straight week with a minor quad injury, but he returned to practice on Thursday and is now in the clear to play this weekend as Carolina's lead back. The 27-year-old has been one of the NFL's most dominant RBs in 2025, vaulting him into a top-five weekly play at the position in fantasy football. He played through his quad issue in last week's loss to the New Orleans Saints and had 21 touches for 64 yards. Dowdle is averaging a career-best 5.3 yards per carry in his first year with the Panthers for 788 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 149 carries. He has added 18 catches for 142 yards and another score. Keep him locked into your starting lineup.

The Chicago Bears opened the 21-day practice window for cornerback Jaylon Johnson (groin) on Friday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Johnson is making progress after undergoing core-muscle surgery earlier this season, and the Bears now have 21 days to officially activate the 26-year-old defensive back from Injured Reserve. Johnson was injured in Week 2 against the Detroit Lions, the only game he's appeared in this year. He will not be ready to return for this weekend's game against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings, but depending on how he progresses next week, there's a possibility he'll be back in the fold in Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Johnson's return in the second half will be great news for a Bears team that leads the league in turnover differential by a wide margin.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters on Friday that wide receiver
Chris Godwin (leg) will be out on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills in Week 11, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Godwin has not played since suffering a fibula injury in Week 5, but the good news is that the 29-year-old was able to make progress this week and put in three limited practices. Godwin didn't make his season debut until Week 4 after dislocating his ankle in Week 7 of last year, and he played in just two games before getting hurt again. Although
Mike Evans (collarbone) is potentially out for the regular season, the Bucs aren't going to rush Godwin back, and he might not return until early December. Even if he makes more progress in practice next week, fantasy managers shouldn't consider it a lock that Godwin will play in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Rookies
Emeka Egbuka and
Tez Johnson should continue to see most of the targets with Godwin sidelined.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters on Friday that running back
Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) will be out this Sunday against the Buffalo Bills in Week 11, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. It's a disappointment for Irving's fantasy managers, but the silver lining is that he was able to turn a corner this week and take part in three limited practices. The 23-year-old hasn't played since Week 4 due to a subluxation of his shoulder and a foot sprain, but if he can upgrade to a full practice at some point next week, he could be back for a Sunday Night Showdown in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams. With Irving missing another week, both
Rachaad White and
Sean Tucker will have elevated roles in Tampa's backfield. White is on the RB2/3 borderline, while Tucker is more of an RB3/flex in fantasy football.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson (knee) was seen practicing again on Friday, according to Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun. Fantasy managers may have panicked a little bit earlier this week when it was announced that Jackson didn't practice on Wednesday due to a knee injury. However, the two-time MVP returned to a full practice on Thursday, and he should be just fine to suit up for a divisional meeting with the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. In two games since returning from a hamstring injury that knocked Jackson out for several games, he's gone 35-for-52 passing for 380 yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions while running for 50 yards on 14 attempts. Even though Jackson might still be getting his legs back under him, he's a must-start this weekend against the Browns. Back in Week 2, Jackson threw for 225 yards and four touchdowns against them in a 41-17 victory.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that he doesn't expect to see tight end
Sam LaPorta (back) at practice on Friday. Campbell said the team will know more about LaPorta's availability for the Week 11 showdown on Sunday night against the Philadelphia Eagles later on Friday. The 24-year-old didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday, so if he sits out on Friday as well, he'll be unlikely to play this week. LaPorta's shaky status makes things even more difficult for his fantasy managers this weekend, with Detroit playing the late game on Sunday. As things stand right now, fantasy managers should send LaPorta to the bench and look for another TE option if you don't already have one. The Lions have "sky-high" confidence in backup
Brock Wright, but fantasy managers should be able to find better streaming candidates on the waiver wire.

New York Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka said that wide receiver
Darius Slayton (hamstring) will not practice on Friday and is not expected to suit up on Sunday against the visiting Green Bay Packers in Week 11, according to Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. Slayton picked up a hamstring injury in the Week 10 loss to the Chicago Bears and was unable to practice all week, so fantasy managers need to put him on their bench for the weekend. The G-Men will also be without rookie quarterback
Jaxson Dart after he suffered a concussion last weekend. So the Giants' offense will be run by veteran gunslinger
Jameis Winston, making Green Bay's defensive unit a must-start in fantasy leagues.
Wan'Dale Robinson should see heavy targets in the passing game, with
Jalin Hyatt,
Isaiah Hodgins, and
Gunner Olszewski also seeing expanded roles. Tight end
Theo Johnson will likely be Winston's No. 2 target.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Friday that wide receiver
Khalil Shakir (ankle, ribs) is "heading in the right direction and should be in a good spot for the game" this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. It's a bit of a surprise since Shakir hasn't practiced in full this week, but it's good news for a Bills offense that already ruled out tight end
Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) for Week 11 action. Still, the 25-year-old Shakir could be limited in what he can do this weekend, and with Kincaid out, receiver
Keon Coleman is looking more attractive to fantasy managers as a WR4/flex play. Coleman has been a disappointment in his sophomore season, but he scored his third touchdown last week and had his second-most targets (eight) of the year. Shakir has been Buffalo's leading receiver in 2025, but he'll carry more risk against Tampa if he's active. Check back for the Bills' final Friday injury report.

Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (foot) was a late addition to this week's injury report on Friday and is now listed as questionable to play in Week 11 versus the Washington Commanders in Madrid, Spain, according to Travis Wingfield of MiamiDolphins.com. Chubb was also dealing with a foot injury last week before being cleared to play in the upset win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, where he tallied a sack and three tackles (two solo). The 29-year-old former fifth overall pick by the Denver Broncos in 2018 out of North Carolina State was rumored to be on the trade block at the deadline, but Miami ended up keeping him around and plans to build around him going forward. He did not play in 2024 due to a torn ACL, but he's having a rebound season so far in 2025 with five sacks in 10 games. Even if Chubb cannot play in Madrid, Miami's defense/special teams should be considered a streaming option in deeper leagues against a banged-up Commanders offense.
