  • GB Quarterback #10
    Love was expected to be active after logging limited practices throughout the week. The Packers’ signal-caller is expected to sport a brace on his left knee, which he injured in Week 1 against the Eagles, but he’s ready to go against the Vikings in their divisional matchup. The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reported over the weekend that backup Malik Willis could see a special package on Sunday, but that shouldn’t deter fantasy managers from starting Love if he’s their best option.
  • HOU Running Back #28
    Mixon was a game-time decision but didn’t make it after getting a limited practice in on Friday. He should be in play for Week 5. Dell misses his first game with rib bruising. Cam Akers and Stefon Diggs should absorb most of the extra volume from these two sitting. Dameon Pierce misses his third-straight game with a hamstring injury and has not practiced since the Thursday leading up to Week 2.
  • NO Running Back #41
    As is Chris Olave (hamstring). Whereas Olave seems like a snap-count concern after his late-week soft-tissue injury, Kamara’s status never appeared to be in much doubt. He can still be fired up as an RB1 for this twice-annual grudge match. Inactive for the Saints are QB Spencer Rattler, TE Dallin Holker, DT John Ridgeway, LB Demario Davis, OG Cesar Ruiz and WR A.T. Perry.
  • NO Wide Receiver #12
    Olave has been trending toward playing despite suffering a hamstring issue in practice on Friday. Both he and Alvin Kamara are good to go for Week 4. The injury makes Olave a riskier bet for fantasy purposes, but he is still the No. 1 receiver on a team with an explosive ceiling. Fantasy managers should still bet on Olave as a high-upside WR2 versus the Falcons this week.
  • SF Running Back #23
    McCaffrey went to Germany for what Rapoport said was “similar to a PRP treatment.” He noted that the treatment seemingly went well and McCaffrey has a chance to start running on grass this week. McCaffrey is currently on injured reserve and will be eligible to return by Week 6. The 49ers get their bye in Week 9 and then play their first game of November the following week. That looks like the most realistic date for McCaffrey’s return. For now, Jordan Mason will dominate the backfield touches and projects as a weekly RB1.
  • HOU Running Back #28
    Per Rapoport, Mixon has been working hard to make it back for Week 4 but is still considered a game-time decision. It obviously sounds like the veteran back will be held out one more week, but fantasy managers counting on Cam Akers for some cheap running back touches will want to stay tuned for Houston’s inactives. Dameon Pierce is out again this week, meaning Akers would see the bulk of the carries for Houston if Mixon can’t go. Assuming Mixon is ruled out, Akers will project for RB3 numbers versus the Jags.
  • CLE Running Back #24
    Chubb began the year on the PUP list while recovering from the torn ACL he suffered early in the 2023 season. The gruesome knee injury required multiple surgeries in the offseason. Once Chubb has his practice window opened, he will be able to practice with the team for three weeks before the Browns have to activate him. That still puts us a few weeks out from his 2024 debut, but a return to practice this early in the year is a good sign for his season-long outlook.
  • LV Wide Receiver #17
    Adams suffered a hamstring injury in practice on Thursday. It looked like nothing when the team listed him as a limited participant on the practice report, but a Friday DNP before being ruled out made it clear that this could be a long-term issue. Schefter noted that, despite the Raiders’ 1-2 start, the team is not currently considering trading Adams. Speculation came up last year that Vegas would look to move the superstar receiver, but they don’t have any interest in waving the white flag on their season just yet. In his absence, Brock Bowers will operate as the de facto No. 1 receiver and Jakobi Meyers will see a boost in target share as well. Bowers is a contender for the TE1 overall ranking this week while Meyers is a high-end WR3.
  • NO Running Back #41
    Kamara missed Wednesday’s practice but was back on the field for two limited sessions before being listed as questionable. Head coach Dennis Allen told reporters earlier in the week that Kamara was dealing with a hip pointer on top of the rib injury. The veteran back has gotten off to a hot start this year and appears to be good to go for Week 4. He has 285 rushing yards and four touchdowns plus another 132 yards and an extra touchdown through the air. Kamara sits near the top of the RB1 ranks for his matchup with Atlanta.
  • CAR Wide Receiver #5
    Johnson was a surprising addition to the injury report on Thursday. The team listed him as a DNP, but he told reporters that he held himself out of practice due to the condition of the field. He then told reporters he expected to play and returned to practice on Friday. It’s safe to say his absence on Thursday was precautionary. Johnson set a career-high in receiving yards in his first start with Andy Dalton last week, going for 122 yards on eight grabs. He was targeted 14 times and is set up for another high-volume game versus the Bengals this week.
