Steelers | Warren runs for 101 yards in win over Saints, Dowdle close to 100 total yards Sun Oct 25, 12:35 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren ran 18 times for 101 yards and also caught 3 passes for 36 yards on 4 targets in Sunday's 16-10 win over the New Orleans Saints. He was projected for 14.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 15.2. Rico Dowdle had nine carries for 41 yards and six receptions for 45 yards.
| Footballguys view: Early on last week, the Steelers' split between Warren and Rico Dowdle, who had just returned from a toe injury, was close to even, but the team leaned on Warren in overtime and made sure that Warren got more than enough touches to make an impact in this game. Dowdle's 15 touches do indicate that his role is more than a mere backup, and the energy he ran with in the second half should keep it that way. The Steelers offense revolved around their backfield instead of Aaron Rodgers for the first time this season, and it was a winning gameplan, so we could see more of it as the Steelers try to avenge their loss to the Browns next week and move ahead of them in the standings of the very tight AFC North, where every team had a winning record coming into Week 7. |

Colts | Packers, Seahawks, Broncos, Vikings listed as interested in Jonathan Taylor Sun Oct 25, 10:50 AM
The Packers, Seahawks, Broncos, and Vikings are teams interested in Colts RB Jonathan Taylor, ESPN's Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport reported Sunday. The Colts will try to win their next three games, against the Vikings, Jaguars, and Cowboys, before the Nov. 10 trade deadline. If that plan does not go well, the Colts could deal resources and build for the future.
| Footballguys view: According to the report, the Packers inquired about Taylor (a University of Wisconsin product) in 2023, but the talks went nowhere after the Colts asked for Christian Watson and more. They just got Josh Jacobs back, but have coveted Taylor for a while. The Broncos and Seahawks backfields have been maybe the two most disappointing in the league, while the Vikings are trying to win a Super Bowl with a ball-control/defense-based winning blueprint, so Taylor would make a strength stronger. |

Eagles | DeVonta Smith ruled out for Monday against Cowboys Sat Oct 24, 03:51 PM
Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday night's Week 7 game against the Cowboys. Smith did not practice Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
| Footballguys view: No practices for three days pretty much summed up Smith's availability. The team will be without Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) as well in Week 7. That means guys like Makai Lemon, Hollywood Brown, and Darius Cooper could be tasked with doing more. We may see TE Dallas Goedert out there on Monday night, and that will greatly help QB Tanner McKee with all these wide receiver injuries. |

Texans | Tank Dell to be activated from IR, slated for 'limited role of snaps' vs. Giants Sat Oct 24, 03:46 PM
The Texans will officially activate WR Tank Dell from injured reserve on Saturday ahead of Sunday's Week 7 game against the Giants. Dell is slated for a "limited role of snaps" as he completes his comeback from a major knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Texans HC DeMeco Ryans said earlier in the week that Dell would play in Week 7 against the Giants. We last saw Dell on the field in Week 16 of the 2024 season, so he's put in a ton of work to get back out there. With the Texans trading for Marvin Harrison Jr. and the emergence of Jaylin Noel, targets could be difficult to find for Dell. We celebrate his return nonetheless. |

Ravens | Lamar Jackson downgraded to out for Week 7 vs. Bengals Sat Oct 24, 03:30 PM
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Bengals. Jackson was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report with an ankle injury, which he described as a high ankle sprain that was "heading in the right direction."
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs were on the fence, but we now have clarity, and it's another start for Tyler Huntley. Jackson was close to returning, with some reports suggesting it was 50/50 that he would play, so a return in Week 8 (road game versus the Bills) seems likely. In a press conference this week, Jackson did say he was "heading in the right direction." |

Chiefs | Brashard Smith to IR with hamstring injury, Jaydn Ott signed to active roster Sat Oct 24, 02:30 PM
The Chiefs placed RB Brashard Smith on injured reserve with a hamstring injury on Saturday, sidelining him for at least the team's next four games. Rookie RB Jaydn Ott was signed from the practice squad to the 53-man roster in his place. Head coach Andy Reid said on Friday that Smith would be out for Sunday night's game at Seattle and that Ott would make his NFL debut.
| Footballguys view: Ott's early-career tape from Cal (2023) showed a player with a natural ability to feel rushing lanes and the vision to maximize yards before contact. His final year at Oklahoma was disappointing and injury-riddled, but in super crazy deep dynasty formats, we've been intrigued by the undrafted rookie. It's all about Ken Walker III (and Emmett Johnson is the primary backup), but we'll be interested to see if Ott can get a few snaps. |

Giants | Theo Johnson downgraded to out for Week 7 at Houston Sat Oct 24, 02:20 PM
Giants TE Theo Johnson (neck) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's Week 7 game at the Texans, according to multiple reports. Johnson was listed as doubtful on Friday's injury report before Saturday afternoon's downgrade.
| Footballguys view: He suffered the injury in Week 5 and sat out last Sunday's loss to the Saints. This is more damaging for the Giants as a team than for Fantasy GMs, as Isaiah Likely is the TE1 and primary weapon at the position. |

Eagles | Dallas Goedert expects to play Monday vs. Cowboys Sat Oct 24, 02:17 PM
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) expects to play in Monday night's Week 7 game against the Cowboys.
| Footballguys view: Goedert practiced fully on Saturday after missing Thursday's and Friday's sessions, and he has no injury designation for Monday night. Tanner McKee should be utilizing Goedert early and often against the Cowboys. That makes him a low-end TE1 option for Fantasy GMs in Week 7. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley expected to 'fight through the injury' to play Monday vs. Cowboys Sat Oct 24, 02:17 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is expected to "fight through the injury to play" in Monday night's Week 7 game against the Cowboys. Barkley, who was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday, practiced fully on Saturday and is listed as questionable.
| Footballguys view: Barkley has been out of action since injuring his hamstring in Week 4. He should be back in Week 7, but now Tanner McKee is in at quarterback. There should be plenty of opportunities for the veteran back as both a runner and receiver out of the backfield. With Barkley on the field, we've got him in the low-end RB1 range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |
