Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson (hip) is out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh and additionally may require a procedure this offseason, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. According to Rapoport, Hendrickson is specifically dealing with a core muscle injury and may have further irritated it by playing against the New York Jets in late October. Cincinnati has not ruled out placing Hendrickson on injured reserve, but the team has thus far opted for rehab in the hopes he can return this season. Of note, the veteran defensive end's contract is up after this season. Cincinnati opted to keep him through the trade deadline, but will have to use the franchise tag or sign him to an extension to retain him next season.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Elijah Moore is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 11 contest on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It's a bit of a surprise that Moore is inactive with fellow wideout
Keon Coleman benched for missing a team meeting on Friday. The Bills will also be without tight end
Dalton Kincaid after he injured his hamstring in the Week 10 loss to the Miami Dolphins. With both Coleman and Moore on the sideline, Buffalo will roll with
Khalil Shakir and
Joshua Palmer as their primary wideouts.
Curtis Samuel,
Gabe Davis,
Mecole Hardman, and
Tyrell Shavers will be battling for looks in the WR3 role, and tight end
Dawson Knox should also see a noticeable boost in targets with Kincaid being out. The 25-year-old Moore has only eight catches on the year for 115 yards and no touchdowns in eight games.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell told Jay Glazer of FOX Sports that he will handle offensive play-calling for the remainder of the season. Campbell started calling offensive plays during last week's win over the Washington Commanders, and he won't relinquish that responsibility. The head coach took over the duty from offensive coordinator John Morton before Week 10. Although we've only seen Campbell call offensive plays for one game, it appeared to be highly successful, as Detroit dropped 44 points on the Commanders.
Jared Goff had 320 passing yards and three touchdowns in the victory,
Jahmyr Gibbs had 172 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns, and
Jameson Williams had 119 yards and one touchdown.

The New York Post is reporting that New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd (abdomen) was shot and critically wounded early on Sunday morning in Manhattan and is "now clinging to life" at Bellevue Hospital, police and sources said. The 29-year-old Boyd was shot in the abdomen after a dispute turned violent. Sources said the shooter fled the scene. Boyd lapsed in and out of consciousness before he was rushed to the hospital, where he is listed in critical but stable condition. It's a scary situation for Boyd, but hopefully he can pull through and make a full recovery. Boyd has not played at all in 2025 with the Jets after suffering a shoulder injury in August.

Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Keon Coleman is inactive on Sunday as a healthy scratch against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11 because he missed a team meeting on Friday morning, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Until then, the Bills planned to play him, but their plans changed after Coleman missed the meeting. Buffalo will also be without tight end
Dalton Kincaid after he injured his hamstring in last week's upset loss to the Miami Dolphins. The 22-year-old second-year wideout caught his third touchdown of the year in Week 10, but overall, Coleman has been a big disappointment for Buffalo and his fantasy managers in 2025 with 32 total catches for 330 yards and three scores in nine games played. With Coleman now out on Sunday,
Khalil Shakir,
Joshua Palmer, and
Curtis Samuel should be Buffalo's top receivers, with tight end
Dawson Knox also seeing a notable boost in target share.

Houston Texans tight end
Cade Stover (foot) was activated from Injured Reserve this weekend and is officially active on Sunday in Week 11 against the division-rival Tennessee Titans. Stover will return for just his second game played this season. The 25-year-old caught all four of his targets for 22 yards in the Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Stover's return will give the Texans another pass-catching option for backup quarterback
Davis Mills, but he shouldn't be on anyone's fantasy radar in his first game back. He will continue to operate behind
Dalton Schultz as Houston's primary pass-catching option at the tight end position.

Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons (hamstring) is officially active for a Week 11 divisional matchup on Sunday against the Houston Texans. Simmons was listed as questionable for this contest, but he'll make his return after missing the last two games due to a hamstring injury. It's a definite boost for a Titans defense coming off its bye as they take on Texans backup quarterback
Davis Mills. Tennessee's defense/special teams unit shouldn't be considered much more than a low-upside streaming option in deeper leagues, though. Through 10 weeks of the NFL season, the Titans' D/ST ranks 14th in the league in fantasy points. Simmons has been a key interior defender for the Titans, collecting 30 tackles (21 solo), 4.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in his seven games played this year.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver
Calvin Ridley (hamstring), who was listed as questionable for Week 11 against the division-rival Houston Texans, is officially active on Sunday after missing the last three games with a hamstring injury. It's good news for a Titans team coming off their bye, but fantasy managers probably still aren't very excited to get the 30-year-old veteran back into their starting lineups. Ridley just hasn't shown much chemistry with rookie quarterback
Cameron Ward, as he enters Sunday's action with only 16 catches for 290 yards and no touchdowns in six games in his second year in Tennessee. In addition to Ridley's disappointing 2025 campaign, the matchup against one of the best defenses in the NFL in the Texans makes him more of a WR5 in fantasy in his return. Ridley's return is also bad news for those considering rookies
Elic Ayomanor or
Chimere Dike as streaming options.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Malik Heath (coach's decision) did not travel with the team to New Jersey for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He is officially inactive as a healthy scratch. We don't know the details behind Heath's absence, but typically, decisions like these are made for disciplinary reasons. However, it's rare to see a coaching staff leave a player on the 53-man roster off the flight for non-injury reasons. Nevertheless, Heath will be inactive for the first time this season. He has caught all six of his targets for 86 yards this season. His void will be filled by
Savion Williams, who should fill a depth role behind
Romeo Doubs,
Dontayvion Wicks,
Christian Watson, and
Matthew Golden.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver
Keandre Lambert-Smith is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 11 contest on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lambert-Smith was unable to play in the Week 10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers due to a hamstring injury, but the 23-year-old fifth-rounder returned to a full practice this week and was cleared of his injury. There was some hype around Lambert-Smith during training camp, but he has really only contributed on special teams for the Bolts in his first year in the NFL. He has been active for six games in his rookie campaign, catching just one of four targets for one yard. Lambert-Smith should only be stashed right now in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
Jamal Agnew (foot) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Carolina Panthers. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. Agnew has played almost exclusively on special teams this year, playing just one offensive snap so far. He has returned kicks for six consecutive games, totaling 24 kick returns and nine punt returns in 2025. Just last week, he had six kick returns for 135 yards. He's an appealing option in leagues that award points for return yardage. Otherwise, he can be left on waivers.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Quentin Johnston (shin) is officially active for Sunday's game on the road in Jacksonville against the Jaguars in Week 11. Johnston was officially listed as questionable to play this weekend, but he has been cleared and will be active against Jacksonville. The 24-year-old former first-rounder did most of his damage this year earlier in the season when
Ladd McConkey was quiet, but he has remained involved in the Chargers' passing attack. In last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Johnston saw 10 targets, the second time this season he's had double-digit targets in a game. Through nine games in 2025, Johnston has 37 receptions for 502 yards and six touchdowns on 62 targets for the Bolts. Against the pass-funnel Jaguars defense, Johnston is a viable WR3/flex with boom potential for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Savion Williams (foot) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. The 23-year-old has taken on a slightly increased role lately, catching five passes for 22 yards and a touchdown (plus a lost fumble) over his last three games. He should continue to occupy a depth role this Sunday, keeping him off the fantasy radar in most leagues. He can be left on waivers.
--Andersen PickardSource: Tom Silverstein
November 16, 2025
Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Matthew Golden (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable following three consecutive limited practices. The 22-year-old is returning from a one-week absence. Through eight games this year, he has just 23 catches for 262 yards, and he's still looking for his first career touchdown. The first-round pick has not yet lived up to expectations, ranking as the overall WR72 in PPR leagues so far. He can be benched or dropped in most redraft leagues.
--Andersen PickardSource: Tom Silverstein
November 16, 2025
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is officially inactive for the Week 11 game on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers. Thomas suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 9 and will now miss a second straight game. The good news is that Thomas was able to practice this week (three limited showings), which should bode well for his chances of returning for a Week 12 game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Jags are also without rookie first-rounder
Travis Hunter (knee) for the year, which means newcomer
Jakobi Meyers,
Parker Washington and
Dyami Brown should operate as the team's top wideouts against the Bolts. Washington scored two touchdowns (one receiving, one on special teams) in last week's loss to the Houston Texans, and his elevated role makes him a prime WR4/flex option in PPR fantasy leagues.
