Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Josh Williams has been suspended without pay for violating the NFL's Performance Enhancing Substance Policy, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Williams is eligible for reinstatement on December 16, which will come after Tampa Bay's Week 16 divisional matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Williams is an undrafted rookie out of LSU who has only appeared in three games this season, mostly as a special teamer. The 25-year-old has just eight offensive snaps in the three games, recording four carries for 11 yards in Tampa Bay's Week 8 blowout win over the Saints.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back
Kenneth Gainwell has had a solid season while serving as the No. 2 back behind
Jaylen Warren and could be in line for more opportunities moving forward. Head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Warren "simply cannot play every down" when asked if he should play more snaps. Gainwell has played mostly on pass downs with Warren healthy and actually outsnapped him 27 to 24 in Pittsburgh's Week 10 loss to the Chargers. The Steelers were trailing for most of the game, which led to the uptick in snaps for the 26-year-old, but he had only three receptions for four yards on four targets. Tomlin also pointed out that if the Steelers win more on third down, then Warren will get more touches. Pittsburgh was unable to sustain drives on Sunday night, going just two for 11 on third downs. Gainwell should continue to play a prominent role on late downs with the potential to fill in as the workhorse if Warren were to miss any time.

Denver Broncos rookie second-round running back
RJ Harvey is coming off an underwhelming performance in the Week 10 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but his fantasy stock may be reaching a high point going into a big Week 11 divisional clash against the Kansas City Chiefs. Lead back
J.K. Dobbins suffered a foot injury last Thursday night and may be forced to Injured Reserve, which would keep him out at least four games. In three games before Thursday's lackluster offensive performance by the Broncos, Harvey had 13 carries for 51 yards and two touchdowns while adding seven receptions for 58 yards and three touchdowns through the air. With it looking likely that Dobbins will miss time regardless, Harvey is on the verge of lead-back duties for the Broncos. If he's available on your league's waiver wire, scoop him up immediately.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end
Brenton Strange (quadriceps) is still on Injured Reserve, but the team is opening his 21-day practice window this week. It doesn't mean that Strange will be active in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, but the 24-year-old's return is on the horizon. The third-year TE had 20 grabs on 24 targets for 204 yards and no touchdowns in five games before landing on IR. The production doesn't stand out, but with the season-ending injury to rookie first-rounder
Travis Hunter (knee), Strange figures to have an expanded role in the team's passing attack when he's activated from IR.
Hunter Long (hip) also missed the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans, so Jacksonville is hurting at the position right now. At the very least, Strange should be in play as a TE2 with upside when he's back. He's currently rostered in only 11% of Yahoo leagues.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Dyami Brown cleared the league's concussion protocol and was given the green light to play in the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans. Brown had an opportunity for more involvement in the passing game with rookie first-rounder
Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve and
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) inactive, but he ended up playing just 37% of the offensive snaps while failing to catch his only target. Newcomer
Jakobi Meyers led the Jags with 41 receiving yards on three catches, and
Parker Washington scored through the air and on special teams. Brown has only 19 catches on 35 targets for 219 yards and one touchdown in eight games in his first year in Duval, but he makes more sense as a waiver addition in deeper leagues now that Hunter will miss the rest of the season. The 26-year-old will still be a boom/bust dart throw, though, and his short-term fantasy value will depend on whether Thomas misses more time with his ankle injury.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs has been as automatic a fantasy start as it gets this season. Jacobs has scored in every game this season but one and has been a top-10 fantasy running back in five of the last six weeks. Adding to that total in his game with the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 10, Jacobs put up 107 yards from scrimmage with five receptions and a rushing score. While Jacobs hasn't posted a 100-yard rushing game this season and has averaged just 68 rushing yards per game, fantasy managers are still beaming at just how inevitable Jacobs has been when it comes to scoring and his involvement in the Packers' offense. With the offensive game plan flowing through Jacobs and the run game each week, he's been the only thing that's consistently worked this season for Green Bay. Against the New York Giants, who are dead last in the NFL in defensive EPA per carry, Jacobs is a no-brainer RB1 lock for fantasy lineups in Week 11.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love has had his moments this season with two top-six fantasy finishes in nine games, but mostly, he's been an unstartable fantasy quarterback this season. In his past two games, Love has finished QB24 in both weeks and has combined for just 17.8 fantasy points against the Carolina Panthers and Philadelphia Eagles, with zero touchdown passes and one interception. He's averaged 225 yards passing and is now without
Tucker Kraft and lost
Romeo Doubs (chest) to what hopes to be a short-term injury during the Packers' 10-7 loss against the Eagles on Monday Night Football. With the Packers' receiving options dropping like flies, it's difficult to justify Love as a fantasy-worthy quarterback in any week moving forward. Even in a plus matchup against the New York Giants in Week 11, leave Love on the waiver wire.

Denver Broncos running back
Tyler Badie has had a very minimal role in Denver's backfield this year, but he could see more touches in the weeks ahead. Lead back
J.K. Dobbins (foot) suffered a foot injury in last Thursday night's win over the Las Vegas Raiders and is now a candidate to land on Injured Reserve, which would knock him out for at least four games. The 25-year-old Badie would most likely become the RB2 for the Broncos behind rookie
RJ Harvey if Dobbins misses extended time, and he's currently owned in 0% of Yahoo leagues. The former sixth-round pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2022 out of Missouri will be more attractive as a depth RB in point-per-reception leagues, as he's already caught a career-high 10 passes for 87 yards in nine games this year.
Jaleel McLaughlin, who has been a healthy scratch for most of the season, would bump up to the RB3 role if Dobbins goes on IR.

The Denver Broncos are considering what to do with injured running back
J.K. Dobbins (foot), and placing him on Injured Reserve is a possibility, sources told Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette. Dobbins is getting additional medical opinions after injuring his foot late in last Thursday's 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Before getting hurt in Week 10, the 26-year-old had 18 rushing attempts for 77 yards while catching his only target for seven yards. Rookie second-rounder
RJ Harvey is already rostered in 83% of Yahoo leagues, so he probably isn't available, but
Tyler Badie might be worth a look in deeper leagues if Harvey ends up missing extended time. If Dobbins is forced to IR, he'd miss at least four games. In his first year in Denver, Dobbins has operated as the team's lead back with 153 carries for 772 yards (5.0 yards per carry) and four touchdowns in 10 games. However, Harvey has taken on a bigger role in recent weeks.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie star cornerback/wide receiver
Travis Hunter (knee) underwent season-ending knee surgery and is now eyeing a return for the 2026 season, sources tell Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Hunter underwent an LCL repair and is expected to return to full football activities within six months. The Jaguars initially believed Hunter's injury was a short-term one, but it will now end his first year in the NFL prematurely. The 22-year-old Heisman Trophy winner suffered the knee injury in practice last week, coming out of the team's bye. It's terrible timing, as the second overall pick was starting to take on a bigger role on offense, as evidenced by his eight-catch, 101-yard, one-touchdown performance in Week 8. Hunter can be dropped in all single-year fantasy leagues. His season-ending injury makes
Parker Washington, who had a receiving and special-teams touchdown last weekend, even more of a waiver-wire priority this week.

Las Vegas Raiders offensive lineman Jackson Powers-Johnson (ankle) will land on Injured Reserve and could potentially miss the rest of the 2025 season, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Powers-Johnson suffered the serious injury in last Thursday's loss to the Denver Broncos and will be "out awhile," according to head coach Pete Carroll. Alex Cappa replaced Powers-Johnson at right guard in the Week 10 loss to Denver and will likely continue to hold down the position for the rest of the season. It's bad news for a Raiders offense that has already been struggling mightily in Carroll's first year as the head coach. They come into Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys averaging just 87.4 rushing yards per game (fourth-fewest) and 15.4 points per game (second-fewest) in the NFL.

Since returning from a high-ankle sprain that caused him to miss three games, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver
CeeDee Lamb has finished as the WR8, WR20, and WR24 in half-PPR scoring. Coming off a bye week, the Cowboys face the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night, and Lamb has the potential to be the overall WR1 for the week. As wintery weather begins to affect games across the country, Lamb will be playing indoors in Vegas against a Raiders defense that has allowed 30.7 fantasy points per game to wide receivers. While he hasn't scored a touchdown in either of his last two games, he's seen a team-high three redzone targets in that time, and his overall target share hasn't dipped below 27% since his return. The Cowboys are projected for 27 points, and one of the most likely ways they hit that mark is on the back of a vintage CeeDee Lamb performance.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback
Michael Penix Jr.'s accuracy went kaput in Germany, completing just 12 of his 28 pass attempts for 177 yards in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts, which included one touchdown pass and no interceptions. However, he also lost a fumble and was sacked three times. The 25-year-old came into the contest with a 60.8 percent completion percentage. But after this performance, it now stands at 58.8 percent. That is the third-lowest in the league, only slightly better than Tennessee's
Cam Ward, whose league-low rate stands at 57.6 percent. Although the second-year QB owns a sterling 8:1 TD:INT over his last five games, the left-hander is hard to trust for fantasy with such low completion rates and near-zero value added with his legs. Atlanta has lost four straight, but has winnable matchups coming up (vs. CAR, @ NOR, @NYJ).
Kirk Cousins didn't make the case for a quarterback change in his lone start in Week 8 against the Dolphins, but if the Falcons continue this losing streak against those teams, Penix may find himself on the hot seat.

The New York Giants on Monday became the second NFL team to fire their head coach this season when they parted ways with Brian Daboll. With rumors already circulating about the upcoming coaching cycle, one name to watch as a potential replacement is current Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski. The Browns are 2-7 and have fallen to 5-21 over the past two seasons, but if they decide to move on from Stefanski, the two-time NFL coach of the year would immediately become one of the most sought-after candidates on the market. Stefanski has been the victim of questionable personnel decisions, but has consistently fielded a competitive team, and the stability that rookie
Jaxson Dart has seemingly brought to the Giants' quarterback room would be a welcome change after the past few seasons in Cleveland.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback
Joe Burrow (toe) had his 21-day practice window opened on Monday and has begun working in a limited capacity. Recent reports have suggested that Burrow is targeting the team's Week 13 Thanksgiving matchup with the Ravens as a potential return date; however, NFL Insider Adam Schefter believes a Week 14 return against Buffalo is more realistic. After starting the season with two wins, the Bengals have lost five of the six games he's missed and fallen to 3-6. Fortunately for them, neither the Steelers nor the Ravens have been able to pull away in the division, and the Bengals' next five games all come against teams currently in the AFC playoff picture, making his return timeline all the more critical. While
Joe Flacco has been a blessing for the team's fantasy options, his sustainability does not feel guaranteed, and a Burrow-led Bengals offense has been the key to many a deep fantasy playoff run in the past.
