The Tennessee Titans are not shopping wide receiver
Calvin Ridley (hamstring) ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. trade deadline, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Davenport's post on X claims to refute other reports that said Ridley was being shopped. However, he does note that the team has been receiving interest in Ridley. Even though the Titans aren't actively trying to move the veteran receiver, he could still be traded if another team makes a fair offer. Such a scenario would open the door for rookies
Elic Ayomanor and
Chimere Dike to occupy even larger roles on offense.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end
Hunter Long (hip, knee) exited during the second quarter of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught one pass for six yards. Long had seen increased opportunities recently with
Brenton Strange (quadriceps) on injured reserve. With both Long and Strange now sidelined,
Johnny Mundt will step up as the Jaguars' primary tight end.

Minnesota Vikings running back
Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) suffered a sprained AC joint during Sunday's Week 9 victory over the Detroit Lions, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The injury is believed to be minor, and Jones expects to play in next week's game against the Baltimore Ravens. The 30-year-old had 78 rushing yards on nine carries before departing Sunday, and he also caught two passes for an additional 20 receiving yards. He should reclaim the lead-back role next week against the Ravens, assuming he does suit up. Fantasy managers should pay attention to the Vikings' injury reports from Wednesday through Friday.

The Green Bay Packers fear that tight end
Tucker Kraft (knee) tore his ACL during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the Carolina Panthers, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. If tests confirm this diagnosis, Kraft will be done for the season. This is a brutal loss for the Packers, as Kraft was off to a spectacular start this season with 32 catches, 489 yards, and six touchdowns through eight games. He had been the overall TE2 in fantasy football so far. With Kraft likely shut down for the rest of the season,
Luke Musgrave will take over as the Packers' starting tight end next week against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that tight end
Tucker Kraft's knee injury "does not look good." The team will conduct additional testing on Kraft tomorrow, but the expectation is that he'll miss an extended period of time. In fact, ESPN's Rob Demovsky cautions that LaFleur's language could indicate that Kraft suffered a season-ending injury. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for additional updates on the talented tight end on Monday. Kraft was the overall TE2 in PPR leagues entering this weekend, amassing a total of 30 catches, 469 yards, and six touchdowns. He added another two catches for 20 yards before departing on Sunday.
Luke Musgrave will step up as the Packers' top tight end going forward.

New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez (head) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Atlanta Falcons. He is officially listed as questionable to return. He had seven tackles and two passes defended at the time of his departure. The 23-year-old is regarded as one of the league's top cornerbacks, but he had a rough time covering
Drake London on Sunday. Before Gonzalez left due to injury, London had tallied six catches, 75 yards, and two touchdowns while being covered by a combination of Gonzalez and Marcus Jones. Until Gonzalez can return, Jones and Carlton Davis III will operate as the Patriots' top cornerbacks.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Matthew Golden (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Carolina Panthers. The rookie exited in the third quarter and was initially listed as questionable before being downgraded to out. Golden finishes the game with just two catches for nine yards. Green Bay entered this week without
Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and lost both Golden and
Tucker Kraft (knee) mid-game, leaving the Packers short-staffed as they try to mount a comeback against the Panthers.
Christian Watson,
Romeo Doubs, and
Luke Musgrave will lead the receiving corps while
Savion Williams and
Malik Heath take on bigger depth roles. Golden will now have eight days to get healthy before the Packers' Week 10 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football.

Cincinnati Bengals running back
Samaje Perine (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Chicago Bears. He had initially been listed as doubtful before being downgraded to out. Perine exited in the second quarter with just five rushing yards on his stat line.
Tahj Brooks will take over as the backup running back behind
Chase Brown. With the Bengals on bye in Week 10, Perine will have 14 days to get healthy before his next game.

Chicago Bears tight end
Cole Kmet (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He had initially been listed as questionable and entered concussion protocol before being downgraded to out. He finishes Sunday's game with just one catch for 10 yards. Kmet missed last week with a back injury, so it's safe to say the injury bug hasn't been doing him any favors lately.
Colston Loveland will step up as the Bears' primary tight end in his absence. Kmet could be at risk of missing next Sunday's Week 10 clash with the New York Giants if he doesn't clear concussion protocol within seven days.

Minnesota Vikings running back
Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) exited during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Detroit Lions. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had 78 rushing yards on nine carries, as well as two catches for an additional 20 receiving yards. The veteran running back missed some time earlier this season due to injury, so it's unfortunate to see him back on the sideline with a new ailment. Jones' absence should put
Jordan Mason in the lead-back role, while
Zavier Scott handles backup duties.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Matthew Golden (shoulder) exited during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Carolina Panthers. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught two of three targets for nine receiving yards. The rookie has been less productive than expected during his first NFL campaign, and now, his status is in doubt due to injury. Golden's absence could lead to more snaps for receivers such as
Savion Williams and
Malik Heath in a depth role behind
Christian Watson and
Romeo Doubs.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver
Rashid Shaheed (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity this past week. Shaheed is a big-play threat who has looked solid in his role as the No. 2 receiver behind
Chris Olave, despite New Orleans' offensive struggles this year. The 27-year-old ranks as the overall WR29 in PPR leagues with 39 catches, 431 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns. He had his best game of the season last week as he caught nine of 12 targets for 75 yards (plus a lost fumble). The Saints switched quarterbacks at halftime in Week 8, handing the offense from
Spencer Rattler to
Tyler Shough. Shough remains installed as the team's starter for Week 9, but it remains to be seen if or how the rookie can elevate Shaheed's game. For now, Shaheed continues to rank as a WR3/flex in most fantasy leagues.

New Orleans Saints running back
Alvin Kamara (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable after logging a limited practice on Friday. The 30-year-old has been disappointing this season, amassing just 363 rushing yards, 147 receiving yards, and one touchdown through eight games. Even with
Kendre Miller (knee) sidelined, Kamara hasn't been able to carve out a major role within New Orleans' offense. He'll likely continue to play around 60 percent of the snaps with roughly a dozen touches against the Rams. His pass-catching skills give him low-end RB2 appeal in PPR leagues, but for the most part, he should be deployed as an RB3/flex.

Houston Texans quarterback
C.J. Stroud (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Denver Broncos. He was initially listed as questionable and entered concussion protocol before being downgraded to out. He finishes Sunday's game having completed six of 10 pass attempts for 79 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He also picked up 12 rushing yards.
Davis Mills entered in his place and will remain the Texans' quarterback for the rest of Week 9. The Stanford product could also earn the start next week against the Jacksonville Jaguars if Stroud isn't able to clear concussion protocol within the next seven days.
