49ers | Mike Evans questionable for Monday vs. Commanders Sat Oct 17, 04:55 PM
49ers WR Mike Evans is listed as questionable with rib and Achilles injuries for Monday's Week 6 game against the Commanders. WR Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) has been ruled out, and WR Christian Kirk (calf) is also listed as questionable.
| Footballguys view: Kirk still has not been activated from injured reserve, so he's no sure thing to play. Evans can play without practicing, and he can produce against a poor Commanders pass defense, but you have to have a hedge from the Commanders or 49ers if you are going to rely on him. If you can move Evans into your flex to expand options, even better. Rachaad White and Chig Okonkwo are the best flex options to carry, and Brandin Cooks and Stefon Diggs are the best wide receivers who might be on your waiver wire to cover Evans. If you have to go deeper, Austin Ekeler and Kaelon Black are possible flex options and Antonio Williams, Jordan Watkins, and Treylon Burks are additional wide receiver options. The 49ers' bye is in Week 8, which could make them more inclined to rest Evans if they are worried about his injuries worsening if he takes the field Monday night. |

Bears | Bears planning to start Caleb Williams vs. Falcons after full week Sat Oct 17, 04:30 PM
The Bears are planning to start QB Caleb Williams in Sunday's game at the Falcons, NFL Network and ESPN reported on Saturday. Williams missed the past three games with a torn hamstring but went through a full week of practice without any setbacks.
| Footballguys view: The offense posted 59 points in the one game that Williams started that was not played in the rain against one of the toughest defenses in the league (Minnesota). He accounted for four touchdowns in that game. Williams becomes a high-ceiling QB1 on this news and is difficult to leave on your bench this week. |

Eagles | Eagles place Jalen Hurts on IR, 'expected to be out indefinitely' Sat Oct 17, 04:00 PM
The Eagles have placed QB Jalen Hurts on injured reserve after consultations with numerous doctors and experts that went into Saturday, sources told ESPN and NFL Network. Hurts is expected to be out indefinitely. Earlier Saturday, the team had not been planning to place him on IR despite his indefinite absence.
| Footballguys view: We'll be watching to see if the team decides that blood thinners are the best course of action for Hurts. He wouldn't be able to play until that treatment resolved the blood clot. How long that would take is impossible to predict. It's possible that Hurts doesn't play again this season. Tanner McKee takes over as the starter, and with Andy Dalton released, the team also signed bazooka-armed Joe Milton III from the Cowboys practice squad. |

"He's had a great week and done a really good job," Head Coach Jesse Minter said.

Commanders RB Jacory "Bill" Croskey-Merritt (groin) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Monday night's game at the 49ers. Head coach Dan Quinn said Croskey-Merritt re-injured the groin he originally hurt in August, adding, "That's harder, on the same injury. We'll work really hard to get him back." RBs Rachaad White (shoulder) and Austin Ekeler (chest) were cleared to play, while RB Jeremy McNichols was a full participant all week and is questionable as he waits to come off injured reserve. "Having a combination of guys," Quinn said, "is what we'll lean on right now."

Commanders | Stefon Diggs questionable for Monday night at 49ers Sat Oct 17, 03:03 PM
Commanders WR Stefon Diggs (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game at the 49ers. Diggs was limited at practice on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Diggs has some PPR value as a what-the-heck flex with the Commanders likely going pass-heavy with Jacory Croskey-Merritt out and the 49ers probably jumping out to a lead against the poor Washington pass defense. |
