Broncos | J.K. Dobbins says reduced workload is about staying fresh, not losing starting job Thu Oct 29, 05:15 PM
Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins indicated on Thursday that he believes his reduced workload is Denver trying to keep him fresh rather than him losing the starting job. Dobbins said rookie RB Jonah Coleman's uptick in work came when the Broncos were winning late and that all he cares about is winning. He added that if he wasn't getting carries and Denver was losing, "shit, I'm gonna be mad as fuck."

Jaguars | Udinski says Travis Hunter's offensive role 'will probably vary week-to-week' Thu Oct 29, 04:33 PM
Jaguars WR Travis Hunter's breakout offensive game against the Texans won't necessarily mean a dramatic and steady increase in his offensive snaps, offensive coordinator Grant Udinski said on Thursday. "That's something that will probably vary week-to-week," Udinski said, adding, "Some weeks, it might be a strong feature of Travis... and then the next game it might only be two or three catches or a couple touches." Hunter played nine offensive snaps in the Week 6 loss to Houston, catching a season-high four passes for 59 yards and a touchdown, while also starting at cornerback and recording an interception. He has played 311 snaps at cornerback and 30 at wide receiver this season, and Udinski said the team will "continue to try to build his route tree."

Commanders | Dan Quinn says Commanders will 'lean in more' on Austin Ekeler Thu Oct 29, 03:45 PM
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Wednesday that the team plans a bigger role for RB Austin Ekeler with RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt on injured reserve. "Now that he's back, we'll need to lean in more, and he's able to handle a bigger workload now," Quinn said. "It's the right play." Ekeler averaged 7.3 yards per carry in his Week 4 return against the Colts but has carried the ball only four times since, and Croskey-Merritt is out for at least the next month.
| Footballguys view: Croskey-Merritt has been dealing with this groin injury all season long, and now he's going to get time to properly heal. That means the Commanders will be looking for guys like Ekeler to do more. Rachaad White rushed seven times for 27 yards in the Commanders' Week 6 loss to the 49ers, adding 30 yards and a touchdown on four receptions. After the Week 7 bye, we'll see if Ekeler gets more work with White in the Commanders' backfield. |

Seahawks | Macdonald doesn't think Rashid Shaheed will practice Thursday Thu Oct 29, 03:34 PM
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Thursday that he doesn't think WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) will practice that day. Shaheed was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs after suffering the knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Early returns are positive about Shaheed's knee injury according to Macdonald. The Seahawks play on Monday night against the Bears, but we may not have clarity on Shaheed's status until Saturday. He's not been much of a factor this year on offense. |

Falcons | Brian Robinson misses second straight practice with hamstring injury Thu Oct 29, 03:29 PM
Falcons RB Brian Robinson Jr. did not practice on Thursday because of a hamstring injury. It was his second straight missed practice, putting his availability for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers in question.
| Footballguys view: Khalil Herbert will get the work as the primary backup to Bijan Robinson is Brian Robinson has to miss another game. Herbert rushed two times for nine yards in the Falcons' Week 7 win over the 49ers. |

Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson in street clothes, absent from start of Thursday practice Thu Oct 29, 02:45 PM
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson walked out of the locker room in street clothes with a backpack on as reporters entered for scheduled media access on Thursday. Henderson was also absent from the beginning of Thursday's practice, Doug Kyed reported. Henderson returned from an ankle injury earlier this month.
| Footballguys view: Henderson is listed as "DNP" for Thursday's practice with an illness designation. That may not keep him out of the game in Week 8, but Fantasy GMs should circle back on Friday. We've got him as a flex play against the Dolphins on Sunday. |

Bills | Dalton Kincaid still wearing red non-contact jersey on Thursday Thu Oct 29, 02:42 PM
Bills TE Dalton Kincaid was still wearing a red non-contact jersey at practice on Thursday. Kincaid also wore the non-contact jersey on Wednesday. He left the October 18 game with a rib injury before returning in the fourth quarter.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid had a bye in Week 7 to get right, and he's trending in the right direction. A non-contact jersey is not a great start in back-to-back days of practice this week. Let's see what Friday's injury report reveals about Kincaid's status. |

Seahawks | Jadarian Price designated for return to practice, could play Monday vs. Bears Thu Oct 29, 02:41 PM
Seahawks rookie RB Jadarian Price was designated for return to practice on Thursday, as head coach Mike Macdonald said would happen during his Monday press conference. Price, Seattle's first-round pick, has missed four games on injured reserve with a chest injury. Macdonald said it is possible that Price and RB Zach Charbonnet could play in Monday night's Week 8 game against the Bears, but no definitive decision on their availability had been made early in the week.
| Footballguys view: Price could be back sooner rather than later as he's coming back from the chest injury that forced him out the minimum four games. With the return of Zach Charbonnet as well, the Seahawks could be using both backs in an RBBC. When both are active, we'll have Price in the flex range from a fantasy perspective. |

Bills | DJ Moore practices in red non-contact jersey Thursday Thu Oct 29, 02:40 PM
Bills WR DJ Moore (shoulder) practiced in a red non-contact jersey on Thursday. The Bills host the Ravens on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Moore has missed the past two games with this shoulder problem, and the team had a Week 7 bye. He's in a non-contact jersey, but the signs are there for him to play in Week 8. If he does play against the Ravens, we like Moore in the WR2/flex range for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Patriots | No sign of A.J. Brown at Thursday practice after new knee injury listing Thu Oct 29, 02:28 PM
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (ankle/knee) was not seen at practice on Thursday. Brown was also absent during the open locker-room period earlier in the day, which is a change in routine. He has been listed as a limited participant in practices since his return from injured reserve, and the knee injury added to his listing on Wednesday was a new development.
| Footballguys view: Brown was limited on Wednesday, so clearly he's downgraded to a "DNP" on Thursday. That's not a good sign for his availability in Week 8. His status for the game against the Dolphins is unknown, so Fantasy GMs need to circle back on Friday to see if he's at least questionable. |

Eagles | 'No sign' of Saquon Barkley at Eagles' first practice of the week Thu Oct 29, 02:15 PM
There was 'no sign' of Eagles RB Saquon Barkley at Thursday's practice, the team's first practice of the week. Barkley, who is dealing with hamstring and back injuries, was estimated as a non-participant on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Barkley is clearly on the wrong side of questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders. The Eagles could be down to Jaydon Blue and Elijah Mitchell at the running back position if Barkley can't play. |

Bengals | Ja'Marr Chase back at practice Thursday after missing Wednesday Thu Oct 29, 01:42 PM
Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session with what was listed as rest and an ankle injury. Chase's return comes ahead of Sunday's Week 8 game against the Titans.
| Footballguys view: Chase gets some rest in the middle of the week. He's good to go for Week 8, and he's a set-it-and-forget-it WR1 of the highest level (as per usual). |

Vikings | 'Some confidence' Aaron Jones will be available Sunday Thu Oct 29, 08:15 AM
There was some confidence on Wednesday that Vikings RB Aaron Jones Sr. (knee) will be available for Sunday's Week 8 game against the Lions. Jones had previously been called 'day to day' and has played with a sprained MCL since Week 2.
| Footballguys view: Jones has been playing with this for over a month, and the Vikings have given him quite the workload. With Jordan Mason back last week, the Vikings moved to more of an RBBC. That should help Jones as he continues to deal with - and likely play through - this knee problem. |

Eagles | Executives split on Saquon Barkley's trade value as Eagles may test market Thu Oct 29, 03:55 AM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley is among the players Philadelphia may shop ahead of the November 10 trade deadline, as executives around the league believe the 2-5 Eagles will look to offload at least some contracts and clear cap space. One AFC executive said Barkley's lingering hamstring injury and the back injury he suffered in Monday's loss to the Cowboys will likely hamper his value, since teams more often trade for running backs to help in the same year. Two NFC executives debated Barkley's value, one thinking it could reach as high as an early second-round pick while the other estimated it closer to a fourth. DT Moro Ojomo, TE Dallas Goedert and CB Riq Woolen were also named as players the Eagles may test the market for.
| Footballguys view: Even with his lingering injuries, Barkley would have at least a few teams interested if he's available. The Eagles are always in the market because GM Howie Roseman is addicted to trading. We'll see if another team offers the Eagles enough to get Barkley. It's unlikely to take a premium pick (or picks) to get the veteran back. |

Eagles | Saquon Barkley estimated as non-participant Wednesday Wed Oct 28, 06:56 PM
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring/back) would not have participated in practice on Wednesday, according to the team's estimated report. The Eagles held only a walk-through on Wednesday, so the report is an estimation. Philadelphia visits the Commanders on Sunday night in Week 8.
| Footballguys view: Barkley has been dealing with his hamstring injury since Week 4, but he picked up a back injury in Week 7. Let's see what Friday brings as the Eagles are incredibly thin at the running back position. Jaydon Blue is behind Barkley, and Elijah Mitchell is on their practice squad. |
