Buffalo Bills tight end
Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) remains absent from practice heading into a difficult Week 11 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Kincaid has been quarterback
Josh Allen's primary weapon when healthy, but the team is at risk of being without their tight end for the second time this season. Dalton Knox remains an option for tight-end-needy teams heading into the weekend. With Kincaid continuing to trend in the wrong direction, Knox should be rostered in all formats heading into a likely high-scoring matchup.

Detroit Lions tight end
Sam LaPorta (back) was not present at practice on Thursday, putting his status for Sunday's tilt with the Philadelphia Eagles in question. The 24-year-old has hauled in 40 receptions for 489 yards and three touchdowns this season. If LaPorta is unable to go on Sunday, third-stringer
Ross Dwelley could be called upon to fill in with
Brock Wright (ankle) also missing practice time. Dwelley has just one target on the season, meaning quarterback
Jared Goff will likely lean on the ground game, and wide receivers
Jameson Williams and
Amon-Ra St. Brown if LaPorta is unavailable. Continue to watch reports over the next two days ahead of the matchup.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson (knee) was back at practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Jackson has returned to his dominant form after missing three starts due to injury. The Ravens quarterback will face the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. The former MVP torched the Browns in their previous matchup with 225 yards passing and four touchdowns. Expect another big game for Jackson with the team riding a three-game win streak.
Mark Andrews and
Zay Flowers should be considered must-start options as well with Jackson in the lineup.

Houston Texans tight end
Dalton Schultz (shoulder) is missing a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. With two DNPs to begin the week, Schultz is firmly up in the air to play this weekend against the division-rival Tennessee Titans. It's pretty disappointing for any fantasy managers who picked up the 29-year-old after he had seven receptions on a season-high 11 targets for 53 yards and his first touchdown of 2025 in last week's spirited comeback win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The good news, though, is that Schultz missed two practices back in Week 9 with knee and shoulder injuries before returning to practice on Friday and playing that Sunday. Schultz may need a full practice this Friday to be cleared to play on Sunday.
Harrison Bryant (neck, shoulder) is also banged up, and
Cade Stover (foot) is still on IR, so Houston's TE corps could be dangerously thin if Schultz cannot play this Sunday.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Bam Knight (ankle) was seen at practice for the second straight day on Thursday, according to Dani Sureck of AZCardinals.com. Knight was listed as a limited participant in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday after injuring his ankle in the Week 10 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. The 24-year-old may need a full practice this week to avoid a questionable tag going into the weekend, but as of right now, two practices suggest he has a chance to be active this Sunday versus the San Francisco 49ers. Since the team's bye in Week 8, Knight and
Emari Demercado have been splitting most of Arizona's backfield touches, with Demercado being the more productive back. Knight hasn't scored since Week 6 and has averaged just 3.4 yards per carry on 33 rushing attempts in his three "starts." If he's active against San Fran, fantasy managers should consider him a low-upside RB3/flex option.

Green Bay Packers rookie first-round wide receiver
Matthew Golden (shoulder) is practicing again on Thursday, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. Golden was listed as limited for the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday, and head coach Matt LaFleur said early in the week that the team would ease the 22-year-old back onto the field after a shoulder injury kept him from playing in Monday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. LaFleur also said that the rookie was really close to playing on Monday, which makes it sound like Golden has a pretty good chance of playing in Week 11 versus the New York Giants. The 23rd overall pick back in April out of Texas has plenty of long-term upside, but he's failed to stand out in Green Bay's crowded WR room in his first eight NFL games, catching 23 passes for 262 yards and no touchdowns.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) appears to be ramping up his rehab, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Reed is still on Injured Reserve, but he was "working up a sweat" on a side field during Thursday's practice. The Packers have yet to open up Reed's 21-day practice window, but that might not be far off. The 25-year-old former second-rounder is rehabbing from a broken collarbone and a fracture in his foot that has kept him sidelined since Week 2. Despite the long layoff, Reed should become a big part of Green Bay's offense when he's back in the fold. Early in his career, he's proven to have a nose for the end zone, scoring 18 touchdowns (15 receiving, three rushing) in his 35 games (24 starts). The Packers have a crowded wideout room, but Reed, who is currently rostered in 35% of Yahoo leagues, deserves to be stashed in fantasy with his return looming.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Khalil Shakir (ankle, ribs) remained in a non-contact jersey during Thursday's practice and is dealing with multiple injuries, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. It's not great news for Buffalo's top receiver, but the good news is that he has been limited on back-to-back days and has a chance to play this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Still, the 25-year-old's status is up in the air, and he could be limited in what he does in Week 11 if he ends up playing. Shakir's injury, in addition to tight end
Dalton Kincaid's (hamstring), could make
Keon Coleman a much more intriguing flex play this weekend. Coleman has mostly disappointed in his second NFL season, but he did have three catches on eight targets for 46 yards and his third TD of the year last Sunday. His eight targets were the most he's seen since the season opener.

The New York Jets acquired wide receiver
Adonai Mitchell from the Indianapolis Colts at last week's trade deadline in the big deal that sent star cornerback Sauce Gardner to Indy. Mitchell did not make his debut with the Jets in their Week 10 win over the Cleveland Browns, but he should be active on Thursday night when the team takes on the division-rival New England Patriots in primetime. The Jets' passing attack has been the worst in the NFL through 10 weeks, so expectations must be tempered, but there's no denying that the 23-year-old former second-rounder has a big opportunity coming his way.
Garrett Wilson (knee) could be heading to Injured Reserve, and
Josh Reynolds (hip) is already on IR. In addition to Mitchell, the Jets are looking to the likes of
John Metchie III,
Tyler Johnson,
Arian Smith, and
Isaiah Williams to step up. Mitchell is arguably the best athlete of the bunch, making him a watch candidate in fantasy leagues as he prepares to make his Jets debut.

Houston Texans quarterback
C.J. Stroud (concussion) was not seen on the practice field on Thursday, according to DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Stroud suffered a concussion early in the Week 9 loss to the Denver Broncos and was not active in last Sunday's comeback victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 24-year-old is still in the league's concussion protocol and hasn't practiced this week, so all signs are pointing to him missing a second straight game this weekend against the division-rival Tennessee Titans. Stroud was still experiencing some concussion symptoms earlier this week. With a short week coming up next in Week 12 on Thursday Night Football versus the Buffalo Bills, it's possible Stroud could be looking at missing three straight games. Backup
Davis Mills surprisingly threw for almost 300 yards against the Jags, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to need to attempt 45 passes against Tennessee.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford hasn't played like a 37-year-old in his 17th year in the league in 2025. In fact, he's playing some of the best football of his career and comes into a crucial Week 11 divisional battle against the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday on an incredible hot streak. Stafford went 24-for-36 passing for 280 yards and four touchdowns in last week's blowout win over the San Francisco 49ers to reach 400 passing TDs for his career. He not only leads the NFL with 25 passing touchdowns through 10 weeks, but Stafford is on an absolute heater, going 69-for-101 with 13 touchdowns and no picks in his last three games. Fantasy managers who scored Stafford off the waiver wire earlier this year are sitting pretty. However, will he be able to keep the good times rolling on Sunday versus Seattle? The Seahawks' defense is improved, but they are around the middle of the pack in average fantasy points allowed per week to QBs and passing yards allowed per game, so there's absolutely no reason why anyone should be benching the red-hot Stafford this weekend.

Miami Dolphins rookie running back
Ollie Gordon II (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Thursday due to an ankle injury that he suffered in Week 9, according to Travis Wingfield of MiamiDolphins.com. Gordon's ankle definitely played a part in the team's Week 10 upset win over the Buffalo Bills, as he played on just three offensive snaps and saw only one rushing attempt on the day. Meanwhile,
Jaylen Wright played 10 snaps and had five carries as the RB2 behind workhorse back
De'Von Achane. Before Gordon's ankle injury, he had been the clear backup to Achane over Wright in 2025, but that script has been flipped with Gordon at less than 100% health. Neither Gordon nor Wright has any standalone fantasy value, with Achane rarely coming off the field. Gordon has 41 rushing attempts in his first NFL season for 119 yards and a touchdown.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Parker Washington (hamstring) returned to Thursday's practice after he was listed as a non-participant due to a hamstring injury on Wednesday, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN. Washington's fantasy stock was on the rise going into the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans, with rookie first-rounder
Travis Hunter (knee) placed on Injured Reserve and
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) ruled out. The 23-year-old pass-catcher responded with two touchdowns (one receiving, one on special teams) on three catches for 33 yards. Thomas could be back this weekend against the Tennessee Titans, but Washington should maintain his role as a starter in Jacksonville's passing attack the rest of the year now that Hunter is officially done for the season. He'll make for a WR4/flex option again on Sunday in a good matchup, and he's definitely developed some solid chemistry with quarterback
Trevor Lawrence in his third NFL season.

Miami Dolphins tight end
Julian Hill (ankle) was limited for the second straight day this week in practice on Thursday, according to Travis Wingfield of MiamiDolphins.com. Hill has not played since suffering an ankle injury in Week 7 and has put in five straight limited practices. The 25-year-old's status remains up in the air for this weekend's game in Madrid, Spain, versus the Washington Commanders. If he misses another game,
Greg Dulcich should operate as Miami's top pass-catching tight end for another week with
Darren Waller (pectoral) still on Injured Reserve. In general, fantasy managers should avoid Miami's TE situation. Hill, who is in his third year with Miami, had only 10 receptions on 13 targets for 77 yards and no touchdowns in seven games before his ankle injury.

Washington Commanders tight end
Ben Sinnott (ankle) has been added to the Week 11 injury report after he was limited in the team's practice on Thursday, according to John Keim of ESPN. Sinnott was a full participant on Wednesday, so with the downgrade, he might be questionable to play this weekend in Madrid, Spain, against the Miami Dolphins. If the 23-year-old can play this Sunday overseas, he could have an elevated workload with
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps),
Luke McCaffrey (collarbone), and
Treylon Burks (finger) all ruled out. Still, fantasy managers shouldn't be holding their breath at all, as Sinnott has a mere three receptions (three targets) for 31 yards and one touchdown on the year, and he's unlikely to produce much as long as starting TE
Zach Ertz remains healthy.
