New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) was upgraded to a limited participant in practice on Thursday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Stevenson suffered a knee injury in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers that was expected to sideline him for a couple of weeks. He did not practice on Wednesday, but he returned to the field on Thursday and is reportedly trying to play on Sunday in Munich, Germany, against the Detroit Lions. TreVeyon Henderson (illness) has already been ruled out for a third straight game, so if Stevenson is not cleared to suit up this weekend, the Patriots will be down to Corey Kiner as the leader of their backfield against Detroit. Stevenson will likely need to upgrade to a full practice on Friday to avoid a questionable tag going into the weekend, and as of now, fantasy managers should not be getting their hopes up that he will play in Week 10 and command his typical snap share in the Patriots' backfield. The 28-year-old has been New England's clear backfield leader in 2026 with Henderson's struggles and injuries, carrying the ball 102 times for 399 yards (3.9 yards per attempt) and two touchdowns while adding 26 catches for 258 yards and two more scores on 31 targets across nine games. If Stevenson defies the odds and plays against Detroit, he will be more of an RB3/flex at risk of losing valuable snaps and touches to Kiner.--Keith Hernandez

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, per Titans beat writer Paul Kuharsky. Spears has been sidelined since Week 6 by a knee injury, but it appears he could have a chance to return in Week 10 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Across six games in 2026, Spears has recorded 141 scrimmage yards on 33 touches. The 25-year-old's fantasy upside is very limited due to the presence of Titans RB1 Tony Pollard. However, if Spears can play against Jacksonville, Pollard would likely see less work as a pass-catcher out of the backfield.--Will Brady

Tennessee Titans rookie first-round wide receiver Carnell Tate (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Tate was seen working off to the side on Thursday, but he has yet to practice this week with the rest of the team as the Titans come off their bye to face the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. If the 21-year-old fourth overall pick from Ohio State does not return to practice in some capacity on Friday, he could be ruled out for the second straight game. If Tate misses another game, Wan'Dale Robinson, Calvin Ridley, and Elic Ayomanor would operate in three-wide sets again for Tennessee as they look to pull off the upset on the Jaguars at home. Tate has quickly become the most valuable receiver on the Titans in fantasy in his first year in the NFL, catching 34 of his 51 targets for 413 yards and one touchdown in his first seven games played, but he looks to be on the wrong side of questionable in Week 10, and fantasy managers should not bank on him returning to action this weekend to face Jacksonville. Check back on Friday to see if the young pass-catcher can return to practice.--Keith Hernandez

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (knee) practiced in full Thursday, Sheena Quick reported. Legette last played in Week 2 at Atlanta, when he caught two passes for 64 yards and hurt his knee at the end of a 55-yard catch. Carolina opened his return window Wednesday and estimated him as a full participant for its walkthrough. He remains on injured reserve as the Panthers prepare for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Offensive coordinator Brad Idzik said Thursday that sending Legette downfield is the easiest way to work him back into the offense. Idzik also said Legette will have to earn his snaps after John Metchie III and Brycen Tremayne contributed in his absence. Metchie has 14 catches for 154 yards and a touchdown, and Tremayne has picked up a first down on all seven of his receptions. Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker each played at least 80% of the offensive snaps against Denver, so Legette can stay on waivers in 12-team leagues until he starts seeing regular targets.--Bruno Mulé

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks (groin) completed a full practice Thursday, according to Sheena Quick. The Panthers opened his return window Wednesday and listed him as a full participant on their estimated report after a walkthrough. Brooks remains on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He has missed six games since aggravating the injury at Atlanta in Week 2 and undergoing core muscle surgery. Brooks can stay on fantasy benches if Carolina activates him for Week 10. Chuba Hubbard returned to full practice Thursday after resting Wednesday. He played 89% of the offensive snaps against Denver and has handled 49 touches over the past two games, including 11 catches. Trevor Etienne had two carries on seven offensive snaps against the Broncos and is listed as Carolina's lead punt returner this week. Brooks ran nine times for 30 yards in two games before going on injured reserve. His 48-yard catch on a deep pass from Bryce Young in the opener against Chicago accounted for most of his 73 yards from scrimmage.--Bruno Mulé

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington leads the team with 55 targets, 493 receiving yards and five touchdown catches. He is a WR2 in 12-team PPR leagues for Sunday's trip to the Tennessee Titans, who have allowed a league-high 40.7 PPR points per game to wide receivers through Week 9. Washington has drawn at least seven targets in three of his last four games after reaching that mark once in his first four. The exception was the 42-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts, when Trevor Lawrence threw 14 passes and Washington drew two targets. He led Jacksonville with seven targets four days later against the Baltimore Ravens, catching two passes for 61 yards and a touchdown. Jakobi Meyers (ankle) drew six targets against Baltimore and missed Wednesday's practice. On the 50-yard score, Washington lined up in the slot and cut across the safety as Baltimore sent an all-out blitz. Six of Washington's 10 red-zone targets have come in his last four games, and he's scored three touchdowns over that same stretch.--Bruno Mulé

Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight (concussion) was on the field Thursday without the yellow non-contact jersey he wore a day earlier, according to Theo Mackie. Arizona listed Knight as limited Wednesday in his first practice since suffering the concussion against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8. He missed last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks and needs to clear the concussion protocol to play Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Tyler Allgeier took every carry by an Arizona running back in Seattle, rushing 17 times for 46 yards. Allgeier played 51 of Arizona's 53 offensive snaps, and Evan Hull played two. With Jeremiyah Love (ankle) on injured reserve, Knight is a flex option in deeper leagues if cleared. He ran for 80 yards on 15 carries, including a 31-yard gain, and caught two passes for 18 yards when the teams first met in Week 6. Allgeier had 18 carries in that game. The workload was close again against Denver the following week, when Knight had 10 touches and Allgeier had 11.--Bruno Mulé

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (hand, shoulder) is expected to play without restrictions Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, offensive coordinator Nick Caley said, according to Aaron Wilson. "He's got juice for days," Caley said. Houston listed Dell as limited in Wednesday's practice. Dell drew a team-high nine targets in the 44-22 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Five of those targets came on deep passes. C.J. Stroud hit him for a 63-yard touchdown in the second quarter and found him again for 32 yards in the fourth. Dell finished with four catches for 105 yards. He also caught a 43-yard pass against the New York Giants in his first game back from the knee injury that sidelined him throughout 2025. That downfield work gives Dell flex appeal in 12-team leagues if he plays Sunday. He logged 33 offensive snaps against the Chargers, one more than Marvin Harrison Jr., who was limited Wednesday with a hamstring injury. Dell also returned two punts in Houston's first game since placing Jaylin Noel (toe) on injured reserve.--Bruno Mulé

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) is participating in practice for the second day in a row on Thursday, according to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Pickens was seen taking part in individual drills for the second day in a row, but what fantasy managers really want to see is the 25-year-old upgrade to a full practice. He was limited in all three days of practice last week but was inactive for Sunday's Week 9 win over the Indianapolis Colts. If Pickens remains limited all week again, his status could be up in the air again for this weekend's home showdown against the San Francisco 49ers. Check back for the Cowboys' official injury report on Thursday to see if Pickens is a limited participant again. Even though the former second-round pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022 from Georgia is not having the type of breakout season that he had in 2025, he has still been productive and is a must-start in most fantasy football leagues when he is active. Pickens has caught 39 of his 62 targets this season for 533 yards and two touchdowns, but he has been the clear No. 2 in 2026 behind CeeDee Lamb. If Pickens gets the green light to face San Francisco, he will at least be in play as a low-end WR2 in fantasy.--Keith Hernandez

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (rest) was back at practice on Thursday after getting a rest day on Wednesday, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. Fantasy managers might have been a bit worried at first to see Hubbard not practicing on Wednesday, but he is not dealing with an injury and should be fine to continue his lead-back duties for the Panthers in a Week 10 divisional contest against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. The 27-year-old has been an excellent value pick in fantasy this year, recording 619 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 134 carries (4.6 yards per attempt) while adding 26 receptions on 31 targets for 167 yards and two touchdowns in the passing game in eight games played in 2026. He had 16 carries for 79 yards and caught all five of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 9. Hubbard has had 100 scrimmage yards in four of the last six games, and although Jonathon Brooks (abdomen) is nearing a return from Injured Reserve this week, he should maintain RB1 duties through the rest of the season in Carolina. Continue to start him with confidence this week against the Saints. RotoBaller has Hubbard ranked as the No. 6 fantasy RB in Week 10.--Keith Hernandez

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo said he is feeling more comfortable with the ankle he fractured last year and is beginning to hit his stride, despite missing last week's win over the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles with a hamstring injury that he suffered in the Week 7 overtime win over the Houston Texans, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN. Skattebo knows he has plenty to prove going into his 16th career game on Thursday night in another divisional matchup against the Washington Commanders, and all eyes will be on him. He is well aware that the Giants tried to trade for a RB at Tuesday's deadline. "I would be skeptical too if my running back was going for 60 yards per game and not exploding out," Skattebo said. The 24-year-old former fourth-rounder from Arizona State was cleared from his hamstring injury this week and will play against the Commanders on Thursday night, presumably regaining control of RB1 duties over Devin Singletary, who underwhelmed in the lead-back role against Philly. Skattebo has 98 rushing attempts this year for 418 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, and he should be considered a low-end RB2 option for fantasy managers in his return in Week 10.--Keith Hernandez

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston (toe) was not present for practice for the second straight day on Thursday, according to Mark Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Browns were hoping that Boston would return to the practice field after sitting out on Wednesday, and it was even reported that his toe was feeling better, but he will put in a second straight DNP, which means he will need to practice in some capacity on Friday to avoid being ruled out altogether for the Week 10 game on Sunday against the visiting Houston Texans. The 22-year-old Boston has been a solid contributor across from fellow rookie KC Concepcion Jr. in his first year in the NFL, catching 32 passes for 507 yards and three touchdowns through nine games, including a season-high 98 receiving yards in the overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 9 while working with quarterback Shedeur Sanders for the first time. If Boston is not able to gain clearance to play this weekend, Concepcion, Jerry Jeudy, and tight end Harold Fannin Jr. would have bigger pass-catching roles against Houston, with QB Deshaun Watson returning to the starting job after missing last week with a concussion. Check back on Friday for Boston's official Week 10 status.--Keith Hernandez
