49ers | Christian Kirk absent again Friday, 49ers WR group thin for Raiders Fri Nov 6, 03:47 PM
49ers WR Christian Kirk was not at practice on Friday. He also did not practice on Thursday with a knee injury he apparently suffered in Wednesday's practice. With Kirk out, the beat writer said it 'looks like' the 49ers' available WRs for Sunday's game against the Raiders will be Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Watkins, Brandin Cooks, Jacob Cowing and practice-squad WR KhaDarel Hodge.

Packers | Christian Watson gets no game status, will play Sunday vs. Patriots Fri Nov 6, 03:34 PM
Packers WR Christian Watson (ribs) did not receive a game status and will be available for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Watson broke a rib during the Packers' 27-19 win over the Panthers but returned to finish that game, and he wore protective padding while practicing in a limited capacity this week. "We have a good plan in place," Watson said on Wednesday. "Obviously, there'll be pads and stuff on it but kind of just what it is. It's one of those things that'll probably be a little bothersome, but you know can still play."

Vikings | Jauan Jennings not seen at Friday practice with calf injury Fri Nov 6, 03:24 PM
Vikings WR Jauan Jennings was not seen at Friday's practice, which the team held indoors. Jennings was added to the injury report on Thursday with a calf injury.
| Footballguys view: Jennings has been a non-factor in fantasy this year. Even if he is active, he shouldn't be started anywhere. |

Cowboys | George Pickens questionable for Sunday against the Colts Fri Nov 6, 03:16 PM
Cowboys WR George Pickens (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's Week 9 game at the Colts. Pickens was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Luckily, the Cowboys play early, so fantasy managers will have no dearth of pivot options if needed. Practicing all week is a promising sign, and both Jerry Jones and Brian Schottenheimer said they share a desire to get Pickens more involved. If active, Pickens is a volatile WR2. If he's inactive, Ryan Flournoy moves from risky WR3 firmly into WR2 discussion. |

Cowboys | Caleb Downs 'good to go' for Sunday at Colts Fri Nov 6, 03:11 PM
Cowboys rookie S Caleb Downs is good to go for Sunday's game against the Colts. Downs was ruled out of last Sunday's game against the Cardinals while being evaluated for a concussion and was in the concussion protocol on Monday.

Cowboys | 'Optimism' for Jake Ferguson on Cowboys' Friday game status report Fri Nov 6, 03:09 PM
There is 'optimism' for Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (ankle) ahead of Sunday's game at the Colts, coming out of the team's Friday game status report. Ferguson did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday because of the ankle sprain.
| Footballguys view: Ferguson was the per-game TE31 going into the Week 8 game in which he was injured. The Cowboys have leaned more on three-receiver sets lately, and Ryan Flournoy's emergence has come at Ferguson's expense. Even if he's active, Ferguson isn't startable. And in most leagues, it's hard to even justify rostering him. |

Chiefs | Travis Kelce full Thursday and Friday, no game designation Fri Nov 6, 02:56 PM
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday after being limited on Wednesday. He has no game designation heading into Sunday's game against the Jets.
| Footballguys view: Kelce was limited on Wednesday but has logged back-to-back full practices since. Start him as a back-end TE1 against the Jets this week. |
Travis Kelce player page
Chiefs | Rashee Rice has no game designation for Week 9 Fri Nov 6, 02:56 PM
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring/knee) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday after being limited on Wednesday. He has no game designation heading into Sunday's game against the Jets.
| Footballguys view: Rice suffered a season-ending knee injury last year and played through a hamstring injury last week, explaining his designation on this week's report. The Chiefs are liberal with their injury report inclusions, and there's no indication Rice won't be his normal self against the Jets this week. Start him as a WR2. |

Bears | Kyle Monangai questionable vs. Buccaneers after limited Friday practice Fri Nov 6, 02:50 PM
Bears RB Kyle Monangai is questionable for Sunday night's Week 9 game against the Buccaneers after being limited in practice on Friday. Monangai, who has been dealing with toe and thumb injuries, did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday. He was ruled out of last Monday's game against the Seahawks, his fourth straight missed game.
| Footballguys view: The Bears have a bye next week, so don't be surprised if Monangai sits again. It's good that he finally returned to the practice field, but the Bears have deep playoff aspirations, and rushing Monangai back invites more risk than reward. If Monangai is active, he risks a limited role or reinjury, making him a shaky RB3. If he's out, start D'Andre Swift as a steady RB1 and Roschon Johnson as a touchdown-dependent RB3. |

Bills | Keon Coleman still in red non-contact jersey Friday Fri Nov 6, 02:40 PM
Bills WR Keon Coleman (shoulder) was still wearing the red non-contact jersey at practice on Friday. Coleman had also been in the non-contact jersey to start Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Coleman's Week 9 projection is contingent on DJ Moore's availability. Moore is hoping to play after suffering a knee injury late in Week 8, but he's also practicing in a non-contact jersey. If Moore can't go, Coleman becomes a risky WR3. If Moore is active, Coleman is a desperation flex or WR5. However, Coleman has a shoulder injury of his own to overcome. We should have more information about his Monday Night outlook after Saturday's practice. |
Keon Coleman player page
Bills | DJ Moore still in red non-contact jersey Friday Fri Nov 6, 02:40 PM
Bills WR DJ Moore (knee) was still wearing the red non-contact jersey at practice on Friday. Moore was hurt late in last Sunday's win over the Ravens but said afterward he was 'OK'.
| Footballguys view: Moore, who had deservedly earned an Iron Man title over the last few seasons, has struggled with health in 2026. A shoulder injury knocked him out of Week 2. A reinjury kept him out for a while after. And now he's dealing with a knee issue. In the two full games he's played, he's racked up 182 yards and two scores. He's the clear WR1 in Buffalo. But fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on his participation over the next two days to get a clearer idea of his Monday Night outlook. |

Bills | Dalton Kincaid out of red non-contact jersey at Friday practice Fri Nov 6, 02:40 PM
Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (chest) was no longer wearing the red non-contact jersey at practice on Friday. Kincaid had been in the non-contact jersey to start Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid is expected to be a full go this Monday against the Vikings. Kincaid saved his output last week with a garbage-time touchdown. He also had a couple of solid weeks to start the season. However, he's been too volatile to earn the "plug-and-play" tag, and this week's matchup against the Vikings is among the hardest for tight ends. Coupled with the injury, he's a back-end QB1. However, being tied to Josh Allen gives him a better chance of scoring than most. |

Bills | Khalil Shakir not practicing Friday for 'personal' reason Fri Nov 6, 02:27 PM
Bills WR Khalil Shakir was not practicing Friday for a personal reason, based on the media-open start of practice. Buffalo plays at the Vikings on Monday night in Week 9.
| Footballguys view: We'll keep a close eye on this, but it doesn't seem like Shakir is at risk of missing this week's game. He was excused for personal reasons. If we hear more, we'll update. |

Rams | Colby Parkinson questionable for Sunday vs. Commanders Fri Nov 6, 02:24 PM
Rams TE Colby Parkinson will be questionable for Sunday's Week 9 game at the Commanders, head coach Sean McVay said on Friday. Parkinson was also questionable for last Sunday's game against the Chargers with a ribs injury.
| Footballguys view: If active, Parkinson can be streamed as a desperation option. However, Terrance Ferguson is expected to return this week, which could push Parkinson out of the game plan. Every Rams tight end has a chance to score any given week, especially against the Commanders' susceptible secondary. As far as streamers go, though, Parkinson is one of the riskiest this week. |

Rams | Terrance Ferguson 'expected to play' Sunday vs. Commanders Fri Nov 6, 02:08 PM
Rams TE Terrance Ferguson is expected to play in Sunday's Week 9 game at the Commanders, head coach Sean McVay said on Friday, ESPN's Sarah Barshop reported. Ferguson has been on injured reserve with an ankle sprain, and the Rams opened his practice window on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Ferguson could immediately step into a big role with Davante Adam out. The Year 2 tight end drew a lot of preseason buzz and was heavily involved in the Week 2 game plan, where he caught nine passes and scored a touchdown. He got injured early in Week 3 and hasn't played since. There might be a bit of a ramp-up after an extended period out, but Ferguson is a great athlete with legitimate late-season upside. He's worth stashing in all leagues, and desperate managers can stream him as a boom-bust option this week against the Commanders. |
Terrance Ferguson player page
Saints | Jordyn Tyson questionable for Sunday vs. Browns Fri Nov 6, 02:03 PM
Saints rookie WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns. Tyson was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday and returned to practice that day, then was limited again on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Tyson should be rostered in all leagues, but fantasy managers will want to keep him stashed on the bench this week, even if he is active. The expectation is that he'll eventually become the team's secondary weapon behind Chris Olave. The Saints drafted him eighth overall, an investment that signals they view him as a cornerstone of their roster. After missing most of camp and preseason, Tyson could get off the line slowly. But his late-season upside makes him one of the best players to put at the end of your bench. |

Browns | Harold Fannin Jr. will play Sunday, Monken says 'He'll be fine' Fri Nov 6, 01:21 PM
Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. will play in Sunday's game against the Saints, head coach Todd Monken said on Friday. "He'll be fine. Just a little sore," Monken said. Fannin practiced on Friday after he was added to Thursday's injury report with a groin injury.
| Footballguys view: Fannin's mid-week downgrade looks like nothing to worry about. Fannin played very well alongside Shedeur Sanders last year and can be relied on as a mid-range TE1 this week against the Saints. |
Harold Fannin Jr. player page
Browns | Todd Monken confirms Shedeur Sanders will start at QB Sunday vs. Saints Fri Nov 6, 01:19 PM
Browns QB Shedeur Sanders will start at quarterback in Sunday's Week 9 game at the Saints, head coach Todd Monken said on Friday. Sanders took the first-team reps on Wednesday and was described as likely to start on Thursday before Monken made it official.
| Footballguys view: Deshaun Watson returned to practice on Friday, but Sanders' full week of practice will give him a chance to start against the Saints this week. We haven't seen how Sanders will look in Monken's offense alongside rookies KC Concepcepcion and Denzel Boston. Last year, in Kevin Stefanski's offense, he clearly preferred targeting tight ends, helping boost Harold Fannin to high-end TE1 production. Sanders' familiarity with Fannin should help him this week, while Concepcion and Boston fall a bit in the ranks, becoming boom-or-bust WR3s. |

Patriots | Hunter Henry questionable for Week 9 against Packers Fri Nov 6, 01:13 PM
The Patriots have listed TE Hunter Henry (foot) as questionable for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Packers. Henry was present at Friday's practice after missing the Wednesday and Thursday sessions.
| Footballguys view: Henry hadn't practiced since exiting Week 7's game with a foot injury, so it was good to see him back out there on Friday. He'll be a touchdown threat given his red-zone usage, making him a high-end streamer if he clears the injury report. If he doesn't, rookie Eli Raridon becomes an interesting streaming option. Raridon only caught one pass last week, but he ran a route on 74% of Drake Maye's dropbacks and pulled four targets. With an afternoon kickoff, Raridon is the easiest pivot option for Henry managers. We'll hope for more information before the early games kick off, but Henry managers without a better option should pick up Raridon ASAP. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson ruled out for Week 9 against Packers Fri Nov 6, 01:13 PM
The Patriots have ruled RB TreVeyon Henderson (illness) out for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Packers. Earlier Friday, Henderson revealed he had been hospitalized for 'unexplained neurological symptoms' and said testing had been 'reassuring.'
| Footballguys view: No surprise here after Henderson's public message earlier today regarding his neurological health issues. Henderson hopes to return soon and can sit on fantasy benches until then. |

Patriots | A.J. Brown ruled out for Week 9 against Packers Fri Nov 6, 01:13 PM
The Patriots have ruled WR A.J. Brown (knee) out for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Packers. Brown did not practice Wednesday or Thursday. He was also ruled out for last Sunday's game at the Dolphins.
| Footballguys view: Reports last week said Brown would likely miss multiple weeks, and he's now out for the second straight week. Brown will attempt to return to practice next week. But with a Week 11 bye, fantasy managers should brace for another week of inactivity and a Week 12 return, at best. |
A.J. Brown player page
Cardinals | Bam Knight ruled out for Sunday against Seattle Fri Nov 6, 01:01 PM
Cardinals RB Bam Knight (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Seahawks, head coach Mike LaFleur said on Friday. Knight did not participate in practice on Friday.
| Footballguys view: With Knight out and Jeremiyah Love on IR, Tyler Allgeier will get the start this week with limited backup work. Allgeier was fantasy's RB1 last week, posting huge numbers against a soft Dallas defense. This week's matchup against Seattle will be tougher. Allgeier is a volume-based RB2 in this matchup, and his production likely hinges on his ability to find pay dirt. |
Bam Knight player page
Packers | Micah Parsons set for third straight day of practice since return Fri Nov 6, 12:43 PM
Packers DE Micah Parsons was getting ready on Friday for his third day of practice since his return. He had practiced Wednesday and Thursday, and was limited Wednesday as part of a ramp-up after being 'cleared to go full go.'

Eagles | Saquon Barkley practicing Friday ahead of Giants game Fri Nov 6, 12:31 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was practicing on Friday, the team's last practice before Sunday's game against the Giants. Barkley, who has been dealing with hamstring and back issues, did not practice Wednesday before returning to practice Thursday.
| Footballguys view: With the Eagles shopping most of their vets, it's peculiar that they keep playing an injured Barkley while maintaining the stance that he won't be traded. He split touches with Elijah Mitchell last week and looked clearly limited by his injuries. As he gets healthier, his role may grow. But fantasy managers should hope the Eagles explore a trade and put him in a better offensive ecosystem. If he's active this week, it's hard to trust him as anything more than a shaky RB2. |

Rams | Myles Garrett 'on track to be activated' from IR ahead of Sunday's game Fri Nov 6, 12:28 PM
Rams DE Myles Garrett, working his way back from knee surgery that landed him on injured reserve, is on track to be activated ahead of Sunday's game at the Commanders, according to the source and NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Garrett has practiced all week, and "all indications point towards him playing."

Eagles | Goedert among Eagles vets 'perceived by other teams to be available' Fri Nov 6, 12:21 PM
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert is among the contract-year veterans other teams perceive to be available ahead of the trade deadline, Sports Illustrated reported. With Philadelphia on a six-game losing streak, WR Hollywood Brown, CB Riq Woolen, CB Michael Carter II and QB Tanner McKee are also in that group. DT Moro Ojomo, also in a contract year, is "a different story," as GM Howie Roseman has given other teams the impression he will try to sign him long term.
| Footballguys view: The Eagles are having a fire sale at the trade deadline in what looks like a lost season. Goedert has been a long-time Eagle, and his role as one of their few healthy pass catchers keeps him in the TE1 discussion. It's hard to imagine a trade that increases his fantasy value, but we'll update here if one happens. |

Buccaneers | Emeka Egbuka questionable, 'more of a game time decision' for Sunday night Fri Nov 6, 12:19 PM
Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (foot) is questionable for Sunday night's Week 9 game at Chicago and is "more of a game time decision," coach Todd Bowles said on Friday. Egbuka practiced on Friday and could play Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Egbuka's second season has been marred by injuries, and this foot injury has been another hurdle. Egbuka has missed each of the last two games Baker Mayfield has started, and Mayfield has been held to just seven completions over those two games. Egbuka flashed early in his rookie season, but his numbers since those first few weeks have been otherwise disappointing. He scored a receiving and a rushing touchdown while playing with Jalon Daniels, which helped pad his numbers a bit. But his 17-game pace of 680 receiving yards this season makes him more of a WR3 than the WR2 he was drafted to be. The Bears are big favorites on Sunday night, which could push them into a position where they'll have to pass. If Egbuka can go, he's a risky WR3. If he can't, expect rookie Ted Hurst III to see some extra work as the team's X receiver. |

Browns | Harold Fannin Jr. practicing Friday after being added to injury report with groin injury Fri Nov 6, 12:11 PM
Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. is practicing on Friday after he was added to Thursday's injury report with a groin injury. Fannin was limited on Thursday. The Browns play at the Saints on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Fannin is coming off a massive outing, catching 10 passes for 154 yards last week. Thursday's addition to the injury report was alarming, but it's good to see him back on the field Friday. We'll wait for more information regarding Fannin's status after practice. But assuming he's active, he can be started as a mid-tier TE1. |
Harold Fannin Jr. player page
Giants | Cam Skattebo in uniform but 'didn't seem to be doing anything' Friday Fri Nov 6, 12:04 PM
Giants RB Cam Skattebo (hamstring) was in uniform at practice on Friday but "didn't seem to be doing anything during the open period." Skattebo worked on the side with a trainer on Wednesday and Thursday. Head coach John Harbaugh called him "day-to-day" with the hamstring injury on Monday.
| Footballguys view: It sure seems like Skattebo isn't playing this week after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 7's overtime win. Skattebo iced the game with a big run but collapsed while opening up his stride in the open field. He missed back-to-back practices to start the week coming out of the bye, and doesn't look like he'll return at full capacity today. With Tyrone Tracy Jr. on IR, Devin Singletary is the last man standing. Singletary has been reliable in spot starts throughout his NFL career. The Giants will likely elevate Eric Gray before Sunday's game. But if Skattebo can't go, Singletary becomes a fun volume-based RB2 against the Eagles. |
Cam Skattebo player page
Giants | Malik Nabers back at practice Friday Fri Nov 6, 12:04 PM
Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) was back at practice on Friday. Nabers did not practice on Thursday, when he worked on the side with a trainer and said "I'll be good" for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
| Footballguys view: A mid-week DNP is typically concerning, but Nabers and the Giants have downplayed it, and his return to practice on Friday is a good sign. Nabers' 2025 season ended with an ACL tear, and he complicated his health with an early-season shoulder injury. However, he's played through both and looked like his old self the last few weeks. If he's active, start him as a WR1. |
Malik Nabers player page
Browns | Deshaun Watson returns to practice after missing two days with concussion Fri Nov 6, 12:01 PM
Browns QB Deshaun Watson returned to practice on Friday after missing two days with a concussion. Watson had been placed in the concussion protocol on Wednesday. The Browns play the Saints on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Watson finished last week's game after a big hit but started showing concussion symptoms the next day. A return to practice could put him on track to play this Sunday. Luckily, the Browns play early. If Watson is cleared to play, we'll know before most of the games kick off. If he can't go, Shedeur Sanders would almost certainly start. |
Deshaun Watson player page
Buccaneers | Emeka Egbuka practicing Friday, 'could play Sunday' Fri Nov 6, 11:42 AM
Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (foot) was practicing on Friday and could play Sunday against the Bears. Egbuka did not practice during the open portion on Wednesday but returned on Thursday as a full participant.
| Footballguys view: Full participation on Thursday likely means Egbuka will play on Sunday, especially if he practices on Friday. The Buccaneers play on Sunday night, which could make managers uneasy. But we'll likely get news after practice that Egbuka has cleared the injury report and will be active after missing last week's game. |

Commanders | Burks, Brown not seen at Friday practice, Van Jefferson could start at outside WR Fri Nov 6, 11:33 AM

Jets | Mason Taylor set to play Sunday at Chiefs Fri Nov 6, 11:15 AM
Jets TE Mason Taylor (neck) is set to play in Sunday's game at Kansas City, head coach Aaron Glenn said on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Taylor is pretty low on the pecking order in the loaded Jets' offense, but we saw his upside two weeks ago when he caught two touchdowns. He's in the streaming discussion, but more of a "break glass in case of emergency" play than a high-end option. |
Mason Taylor player page
Broncos | J.K. Dobbins' name came up in trade talks, deal less likely with Harvey on IR Fri Nov 6, 11:02 AM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins' name came up in trade talks ahead of Tuesday's deadline, SI's Albert Breer reported. A deal could be less likely now that RB RJ Harvey is on injured reserve, according to Breer. Dobbins has struggled this season, with rookie RB Jonah Coleman emerging in the backfield.
| Footballguys view: It's interesting that the Broncos appear to be in the market to buy and sell running backs at the trade deadline. They have been rumored to be in trade talks for both Jonathan Taylor and Breece Hall, and Dobbins could be part of the return in one of those deals. Historically, the NFL trade deadline is a letdown. But it seems like there's more smoke regarding contenders and running backs this year than normal. The official deadline is next Thursday at 4:00 p.m. ET, and we'll update here with any trades. |

Ravens | Cardinals officially announce trade of Jacoby Brissett to Ravens Fri Nov 6, 11:00 AM
The Cardinals officially announced the trade of QB Jacoby Brissett to the Ravens on Friday. Arizona did not disclose what draft pick it received in return.
| Footballguys view: After last night's game from Joe Fagnano, it's hard to imagine how things could get much worse for the Ravens. Brissett should help get this offense back on track, hopefully keeping them competitive in case Lamar Jackson returns late in the season. Zay Flowers is the Ravens' most fantasy-relevant pass-catcher and has been a non-factor the last two weeks. There's hope that Brissett can bring him back up to WR1 status. As for Brissett, he probably won't have much value aside from two-QB and superflex leagues. |

Dolphins | Jaylen Wright 'in question' for Sunday, will practice Friday Fri Nov 6, 10:50 AM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (quadriceps) is one of three players in question for Sunday's game against the Lions. He will practice on Friday and the team will see how it goes. Wright missed Wednesday's practice with the quad injury before returning on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Wright has been managing a foot injury for most of this season, unrelated to the quadriceps injury he is currently dealing with. Wright may have won the RB2 job out of camp, but Ollie Gordon II has since taken that role from him. Wright needs to get healthy before he can be rostered in fantasy leagues, and likely won't be relevant as long as Gordon is active. |
Jaylen Wright player page
Jets | Garrett Wilson ruled out for Week 9 at Chiefs Fri Nov 6, 10:41 AM
Jets WR Garrett Wilson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a concussion. Wilson missed practice again on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: After a couple of quiet games, Wilson bounced back with 12 targets last week, but suffered a concussion during the matchup. The depth of this Jets' offense leads to volatile performances from everyone involved. Adonai Mitchell, Omar Cooper Jr., Kenyon Sadiq, and Mason Taylor will all get projection bumps with Wilson out, but it's unlikely that all four can pay off in a single game. In a tough road matchup against the Chiefs, those four pass-catchers all become boom-or-bust flex options. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson reveals hospitalization for 'unexplained neurological symptoms' Fri Nov 6, 10:29 AM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson released a statement on Friday revealing that he recently suffered an unexpected medical emergency involving unexplained neurological symptoms that required several days of hospitalization. Henderson said doctors have yet to determine the cause. He was downgraded to out with an illness for last Sunday's game at the Dolphins and was away from the team with the illness on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Henderson's statement referred to neurological symptoms that are impacting his physical performance, but the details of the condition are vague. His long-term health and safety matter most right now, and the Patriots will hope their young running back can return soon. While Henderson is out, expect Rhamondre Stevenson to get some extra work, with Corey Kiner mixing in as a change-of-pace option. |

Falcons | Brian Robinson Jr. ruled out for Sunday's game in Madrid Fri Nov 6, 08:32 AM
The Falcons ruled out RB Brian Robinson Jr. for Sunday's game against the Bengals in Madrid due to a hamstring injury. Robinson had been limited in practice throughout the week.
| Footballguys view: Robinson has missed the last two weeks. Oddly enough, Bijan Robinson has logged his two worst games of the year in those matchups. A Week 7 matchup against the 49ers and a sloppy storm game against the Buccaneers in Week 8 were frustrating, but this week's matchup against the Bengals should lead to better results. Khalil Herbert should take over as the team's secondary back, and Bijan Robinson can be relied on as a top-three running back. |
Brian Robinson Jr player page
Falcons | Zachariah Branch out for Week 9 against the Bengals Fri Nov 6, 08:19 AM
Falcons WR Zachariah Branch (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Bengals, Marc Raimondi reported on Friday. Head coach Kevin Stefanski had said on Monday that Branch would be out this week.
| Footballguys view: Branch also missed last week's game against the Buccaneers, in which Jahan Dotson took on a larger role and recorded the Falcons' biggest reception of the day. Expect the offense to concentrate on Bijan Robinson, Drake London, and Kyle Pitts, as it normally does. But for fantasy managers desperate for a flex play, Dotson always has the chance to break off a big play while Branch is out. |
