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. 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.

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.

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. |

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. 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.

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.

Browns WR Denzel Boston is not expected to practice on Wednesday due to a toe injury.
| Footballguys view: Toe injuries can linger, and they need time to heal. Boston caught 6-of-7 targets for 98 yards in the Browns' Week 9 loss to the Saints. He did that with Shedeur Sanders under center, and now Deshaun Watson is back as the Browns' starter. If Boston is able to play against the Texans on Sunday, we like him as a flex option for Fantasy GMs. |

The Rams made no trades before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET NFL trade deadline despite losing WRs Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, DT Poona Ford to a season-ending triceps injury and CB Jaylen Watson to shoulder surgery.

Instead, the Rams brought back WR Xavier Smith, signing him off the 49ers' practice squad, leaving QB Matthew Stafford throwing to a receiving corps featuring Tutu Atwell, Konata Mumpfield and rookie CJ Daniels. WR Josh Downs, a reported Rams target, was traded to the Chiefs.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert was not traded at the deadline.
| Footballguys view: The Athletic's Zach Berman believes Goedert's contract is structured to allow for a post-June 1 release, so trading him at the deadline would have carried cap ramifications from accelerated charges. |

Patriots WR Romeo Doubs is expected to return from injured reserve "in the near future."
| Footballguys view: Doubs is eligible to come back after New England's Week 10 game against the Lions on Sunday. It's not yet clear he will do so, however. He was placed on injured reserve in October with a shoulder injury. We'll be watching to see if his practice window is open this week, which would be the first step in his return. |

Giants QB J.J. McCarthy (hip) was a full participant in practice on Tuesday.

The Titans are keeping RB Tony Pollard despite interest from other teams, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Tennessee had told teams it did not want to trade offensive players like Pollard. Pollard ran for 117 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Bengals on Nov. 1. Expect him to remain the primary offensive weapon as the Titans hope to field an effective enough offense to get the best look possible at Cam Ward as they evaluate the young QB's long-term outlook. |
