49ers WR Keenan Allen, acquired from the Colts at Tuesday's trade deadline, is still awaiting possible NFL discipline stemming from an offseason DUI arrest in Indianapolis. "We know the league handles that. It could go either way. So we're waiting for them to say," head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Wednesday, adding, "It's still possible [he will be suspended]." Allen could face a three-game suspension, California Post's Edward Lewis reported on August 30. Allen had 40 receptions for 351 yards and one touchdown in eight games with the Colts this season and is expected to be an immediate contributor in an injury-depleted 49ers receiver room.

The Patriots have ruled out RB TreVeyon Henderson for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Lions in Germany, announcing the decision with Wednesday's injury report.
| Footballguys view: Henderson also missed the Week 9 game against the Packers after reporting unexplained neurological symptoms; a stroke was ruled out 'for now', and testing was described as 'reassuring'. |

Falcons rookie WR Zachariah Branch did not participate in practice on Wednesday because of a hamstring injury. The injury held him out of Atlanta's last game against the Bengals. The Falcons host the Chiefs on Sunday.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (ankle) was limited at practice on Wednesday. Kincaid was rolled up on in Monday's win over the Vikings and was taped up on the medical bench. The Bills visit the Jets on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid is seemingly always bothered by some nagging injury. He's a TE1 as usual against the Jets in Week 10. |
Dalton Kincaid player page
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 10 game at Atlanta.
| Footballguys view: Worthy left last Sunday's game against the Jets with an apparent hamstring injury, and head coach Andy Reid labeled him as "day-to-day" during his Monday press conference. |
Xavier Worthy player page
Saints QB Tyler Shough took grief from teammates about his sliding form after Sunday's win over the Browns. Shough said on Wednesday that the slide has to do with his injured left hand and that he was not trying to draw a penalty.

Vikings WR Jauan Jennings (calf) was estimated as not participating on Wednesday's injury report. Jennings missed Monday's game against the Bills with the calf injury. The Vikings did not practice Wednesday and are scheduled to practice Thursday and Friday ahead of Sunday's Week 10 game at Green Bay.

Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson (wrist/chest) was estimated as not participating on Wednesday's injury report as Minnesota prepares to visit the Packers on Sunday in Week 10. The Vikings did not practice Wednesday after playing on Monday night and instead estimated participation levels. The team is scheduled to practice Thursday and Friday, with game status designations announced Friday.

Giants WR Malik Nabers is dealing with a knee issue heading into Thursday's Week 10 game against the Commanders. He will play and does not carry an injury designation.
| Footballguys view: Nabers caught 5-of-8 targets for 43 yards in the Giants' Week 9 win over the Eagles. It was a down day for the superstar receiver, and we're expecting him to have a bounce-back game against the Commanders. We've got Nabers as a WR1 in Week 10. |

Jaguars RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. (hand) was limited at practice on Wednesday. Jacksonville visits the Titans on Sunday.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes was listed as a full participant in practice on Wednesday, putting him on track to play Sunday at Atlanta.
| Footballguys view: Chiefs fans can breathe a sigh of relief here. Mahomes is dealing with an elbow injury that Andy Reid called 'day-to-day' on Monday, after an MRI did not reveal a major injury. |
Patrick Mahomes II player page
Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee/toe) will be listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report, head coach Sean McVay said.
| Footballguys view: He's not on IR for roster-manuevering reasons, but it's likely we don't see Nacua for some time. Nacua is dealing with MCL and PCL knee sprains and turf toe and is expected to be out for some time. |
Puka Nacua player page
Packers K Trey Smack was listed as limited with a right calf injury on Wednesday's first injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 10 game against the Vikings. The Packers held a jog-through on Wednesday.

Dolphins rookie WR Chris Bell (knee) was limited at practice on Wednesday. Bell was also limited by the knee in a Wednesday practice in early October.
Link to storyChris Bell player page
Saints RB Travis Etienne Jr. returned to practice on Wednesday. Etienne was placed on injured reserve in early October with a hamstring injury.
| Footballguys view: Etienne's 21-day practice window is open. The team can choose to activate him or shut him down, so they need to see how he does in practice before determining that outcome. Etienne could be out there against the Panthers in Week 10. If not, Audric Estime would be in line for a healthy role (RB2/flex option). |
Travis Etienne Jr. player page
Lions QB Jared Goff was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday because of a chest injury.
| Footballguys view: There has been no indication that Goff is at risk of missing Sunday's Week 10 game against the Patriots in Germany. The next two days should bring more information about his condition. |
Jared Goff player page
Texans QB C.J. Stroud said on Wednesday that WR Xavier Hutchinson is "the most reliable" player on the team. Stroud said Hutchinson works the hardest and sprints on every play, and that he is not surprised by Hutchinson's production.
| Footballguys view: Hutchinson is a great blocker, and he can get some looks near pay dirt from time to time. Against the Browns in Week 10, we've got Hutchinson as a touchdown-dependent deep flex play. |

Giants QB J.J. McCarthy (hip) is "good to go" for Thursday night's Week 10 game against the Commanders.
| Footballguys view: The hip problem led to some great memes, but it's not going to cost McCarthy the Week 10 game. McCarthy was a full participant in the Giants' only practice of the short week on Tuesday. We've got him in the middle of the QB2 tier, and that make him an option in start-2QB/superflex leagues. |
J.J. McCarthy player page
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Wednesday there is "good news on a lot of those guys" when asked about WR Rashid Shaheed (knee), DT Leonard Williams, DE Uchenna Nwosu and OT Charles Cross. Macdonald said some of them will be able to get some work in on Wednesday, as the team won't go full-speed in practice. He said no one has been ruled out or in for Sunday's Week 10 game at the Raiders. Shaheed and Williams both missed last Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

The Rams are not placing WR Puka Nacua on injured reserve because of roster mechanics, but he "will be out for some time." Nacua has a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: Nacua has to miss time, but putting him on IR would rob someone else of being labeled "designated to return." For now, the Rams are keeping Nacua on the 53-man roster where he just takes up a spot. They're hoping to get Davante Adams back at some point in early December. |

49ers WR Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Samuel was ruled out for last Sunday's Week 9 win over the Raiders with the hamstring injury. WR Mike Evans (Achilles) did not practice Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: There is a chance that Samuel can return to the field this week against the Cowboys. In fact, Samuel was quoted as saying he's ready to reporters at the facility. Samuel is a WR3/flex play upon his return with a chance to do more as a leading receiver for the 49ers. |
Deebo Samuel Sr. player page
49ers WR Mike Evans (Achilles) was listed as not participating on the team's pre-practice report on Wednesday. Evans is dealing with Achilles tendinitis, and the 49ers said Monday they were 'not expecting' him back this week. San Francisco visits the Cowboys on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Evans will get all the time he needs. The 49ers have designs of making a run at the Super Bowl, and they're not going to jeopardize Evans' chances of helping them get to the big game. The 49ers traded for Keenan Allen, so Evans will get plenty of time to get right before his return. |
Mike Evans player page
Rams WR Davante Adams suffered a significant hamstring injury in Week 6. The Rams' timeline has him returning as soon as early December or as late as Week 16.
| Footballguys view: The Rams have been "hopeful" that Adams could return in Week 13 against the Chiefs. So, an early December return is not out of the question. The Rams are down to Konata Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell and CJ Daniels at the wide receiver position. They'll do the heavy lifting while Adams continues to recover and Puka Nacua is out. |
Davante Adams player page
Panthers QB Bryce Young was off the injury report on Wednesday for the first time since Week 3. Young had been listed with an ankle injury, and he was a full participant on last week's estimated report.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Panthers here. Even with a 3-5 record, the Panthers sit atop the NFC South. A healthy Young can help them stay on track for the playoffs. From a fantasy perspective, we like Young as a QB1 against the Saints in Week 10. |
Bryce Young player page
Patriots WR A.J. Brown (knee) will travel with the team to Germany for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Lions, head coach Mike Vrabel said on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Vrabel added that just because players travel doesn't necessarily mean they will play, but the decision gives Brown a chance to suit up. Brown was ruled out for last Sunday's Week 9 game against the Packers. |
A.J. Brown player page
Vikings QB Kyler Murray will be listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's projected injury report, head coach Kevin O'Connell said. The Vikings are not practicing on Wednesday. Murray, who has been dealing with a hamstring strain, "just started his running progression" on Wednesday, O'Connell said.
| Footballguys view: Murray is not an option for the Vikings in Week 10 - and Carson Wentz should not be an option any longer. The team made a trade for Kirk Cousins, and we imagine he'll be the starter in Week 10. O'Connell is just being coy by not admitting Cousins will start against the Packers. In fact, Green Bay is preparing for Cousins as the starter. |
Kyler Murray player page
Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell would not fully commit on Wednesday to QB Kirk Cousins starting Sunday's Week 10 game at the Packers. "That's what we're working toward but also want to be fair to Kirk and make sure he feels good about it," O'Connell said. The Vikings acquired Cousins from the Raiders on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: O'Connell should just tell the truth; Cousins gives the Vikings the best chance to win. Carson Wentz was terrible in Week 9, and that's why the Vikings felt they had to bring Cousins back. He's familiar with the system, and it shouldn't take too long for Cousins to get back up to speed in the offense. O'Connell may not commit on Wednesday, but we imagine things get obvious by the time Friday rolls around; Cousins is the starter. |
Kirk Cousins player page
Giants RB Cam Skattebo is expected to return for Thursday night's game against the Commanders after missing last week's road win over the Eagles with a hamstring injury. Skattebo will remain New York's lead back for now, ahead of Devin Singletary and Greg Desrosiers Jr., after the Giants explored backfield upgrades before the trade deadline. He leads the team with 418 rushing yards and two touchdowns at 4.3 yards per carry but has fumbled four times this season.
| Footballguys view: Skattebo was able to practice fully this week, and he's ready to go for Thursday's NFC East matchup. We like Skattebo in the RB2/flex range for Fantasy GMs in PPR formats. |
Cam Skattebo player page
Cowboys WR George Pickens (hamstring/shoulder) was going through individual drills during Wednesday's practice. Pickens missed last Sunday's game against the Colts with the shoulder and hamstring injuries. The Cowboys host the 49ers on Sunday.
| Footballguys view: Pickens was out there, but his status for Week 10 is unknown. Let's see if he can be a full participant by Friday at the latest. |
George Pickens player page
Texans RB David Montgomery (groin) was not seen at the portion of practice open to reporters on Wednesday. He is "still considered week-to-week" but "could return with the next week or so."
| Footballguys view: Texans HC DeMeco Ryans said on Monday he was hopeful Montgomery would practice this week or next. It's not a great sign that Montgomery is not out there on Wednesday, but it doesn't mean they won't start working him back into the mix later in the week. |
David Montgomery player page
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, who coached Vikings QB Kirk Cousins in Washington, said on Wednesday he expects Cousins to start Sunday's game against Green Bay. "He'll be starting. I'm fairly confident of that," LaFleur said. LaFleur also said he was stunned that the Vikings only had to give up a third-round pick to acquire Cousins.
| Footballguys view: Of course Cousins is going to start! The Vikings made the big move for Cousins because Carson Wentz is not a great option and Kyler Murray is banged up. Cousins knows the system and should be able to step in without much of a ramping-up period. Against the Packers in Week 10, we see Cousins as a QB2/streaming option for Fantasy GMs out there. |
Kirk Cousins player page
Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard was not in uniform at the start of practice on Wednesday. The beat writer suggested it "could be a vet day."
| Footballguys view: We don't think this is a big deal. Hubbard also had a rest day on a Wednesday in October before returning to full practice that Thursday. |
Chuba Hubbard player page
Ravens QB Jacoby Brissett was warming up at the start of practice on Wednesday. Brissett was acquired in a trade with the Cardinals last week after injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley. Baltimore hosts the Chargers on Monday night.
| Footballguys view: No surprise here. Ravens HC Jesse Minter said he expects Brissett to start in Week 10 against the Chargers. With the support of a rushing attack, Brissett should be able to manage the game for the Ravens. From a fantasy perspective, we can't really see him getting above his QB2/QB3 range that he normally produces at when a starter. |
Jacoby Brissett player page
Browns head coach Todd Monken said Wednesday that it was always his intention to start QB Deshaun Watson over QB Shedeur Sanders in Week 10 against the Texans. Looking beyond Sunday's game, Monken added, "I have no intention of Deshaun not being our starter."
| Footballguys view: Watson is the team's starter after missing last week, even though he did clear the concussion protocol before the game. Against a Texans defense in Week 10, we've got Watson as a QB2/streaming option. |
Deshaun Watson player page
Packers RB Josh Jacobs will miss Sunday's Week 10 game against the Vikings and will have surgery later this week on his broken ring finger. Jacobs could return as quickly as two to three weeks, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Green Bay will decide on Saturday whether injured reserve is necessary, but it is not guaranteed. The Packers have their bye after the Vikings game, and Jacobs has a shot to return after that. Kaleb Johnson and Pierre Strong (both RB4/deep flex options) will work in tandem for the Packers' backfield. Marshawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks are there as well to help while Jacobs misses time. |
Josh Jacobs player page
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (hamstring) is scheduled to practice on Wednesday, head coach Andy Reid said. Reid said Worthy is "feeling pretty good." Worthy went down grabbing his hamstring in Sunday's win over the Jets and was considered day-to-day on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Hamstring injuries for speedsters like Worthy can take more time to heal. However, it sounds like the young receiver is feeling good. With Josh Downs added before the trade deadline, Worthy is pushed down the depth chart and the pecking order. Worthy's role may find him off fantasy rosters and onto the waiver wire. |
Xavier Worthy player page
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said on Wednesday that he will keep K Harrison Butker as the team's kicker. "I'm going to stick with (Harrison) Butker," Reid said. On Sunday, Reid had said he was "not making any decisions right now" on Butker.

Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten was working inside during the open media portion of practice on Wednesday. WR Jakobi Meyers was also inside during that portion of practice.
| Footballguys view: Tuten didn't practice at all last week, but he still rushed 12 times for 29 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' Week 9 win over the Ravens. He could be in line for the same treatment during the week this time around as the team prepares for a game against the hapless Titans. |
Bhayshul Tuten player page
Panthers WR Xavier Legette returned to practice on Wednesday. Legette was placed on injured reserve in early October with a knee injury, and the team said Monday it would open his 21-day practice window this week.
| Footballguys view: Legette returns to a full practice on Wednesday, so there's a chance he suits up in Week 10. Fantasy GMs can leave him on the waiver wire for now as there's not a clear-cut (and fantasy relevant) role for him currently in the Panthers' passing game. |
Xavier Legette player page
Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said QB Malik Willis would be the starter once he comes back. QB Kyle McCord had received sporadic team reps in practice over the first nine weeks of the season, but that will increase significantly as he prepares to start.
| Footballguys view: Willis is seeking second opinions on the groin injury that landed him on IR, according to Dolphins HC Jeff Hafley. The Dolphins turn to McCord for the time being, and if Willis needs season-ending surgery, he could be the starter for the rest of the 2026 season. |
Malik Willis player page
The Panthers opened the 21-day practice window for RB Jonathon Brooks on Wednesday as he works back from injured reserve. Brooks is set to return to the practice field this week and has three weeks to practice. He would still need to be added back to the active roster to appear in a game.
| Footballguys view: Go ahead and stash Brooks on your bench if you play in a deeper league. He's practicing in full on Wednesday, so there's a chance Brooks could get back out there in Week 10. He's a talented but oft-injured back who will get on the field as a change-of-pace back behind Chubba Hubbard. The talent is there for him to do more, but perhaps a limited role can keep him healthy for the first time *checks notes* ever with the Panthers. |
