Brock Purdy

SF Quarterback #13

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Brock Purdy completed 17-of-31 attempts for 212 yards and three interceptions in the 49ers’ 28-18 Week 7 loss against the Chiefs, adding eight rushes for 27 yards and two touchdowns.

Without Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Deebo Samuel (illness) of most of the contest, Purdy was reduced to running for his life against an aggressive KC defense. He was erratic as a passer throughout but saved his fantasy day with two rushing scores. Purdy has seen his touchdown rate plunge this season in a suddenly inefficient Kyle Shanahan offense that won’t look the same until its superstars return to full health. Purdy has a solid Week 8 matchup against a hopeless Dallas defense.
Jordan Mason

SF Running Back #24

Jordan Mason had 14 rushes for 58 yards in the 49ers’ Week 7 loss against the Chiefs, adding two catches for 11 yards.

Mason struggled to get loose against a stiff Kansas City front seven that did not have to respect the Niners’ passing offense with Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Deebo Samuel (illness) sidelined. Mason continues to work as the team’s lead back but is very much limited by his lack of pass game involvement. Mason has a plus matchup in Week 8 against the Cowboys and their bottom-dwelling rush defense.
George Kittle

SF Tight End #85

George Kittle caught 6-of-7 targets for 92 yards in the 49ers’ Week 7 loss against the Chiefs.

Kittle was the team’s top pass catcher with Deebo Samuel sidelined with an illness and Brandon Aiyuk going down with a potentially serious knee injury. Kittle led the team in every receiving category and came down with a 33-yard pass from Brock Purdy — one of the only big plays of the day for the struggling San Francisco offense. Kittle, with at least five catches in four of his past five games, will be an elite fantasy option in Week 8 against a bad Dallas coverage unit.
Kareem Hunt

KC Running Back #29

Kareem Hunt had 22 rushes for 78 yards and two touchdowns in the Chiefs’ Week 7 win against the 49ers, adding two catches for five yards.

Hunt keeps on keeping on as the centerpiece of the new-look, run-first Kansas City offense. He had 22 of the Chiefs’ 30 running back rushes and found the end zone twice inside the ten yard line against a quietly exploitable Niners run defense. With 52 touches over his past two games as the Chiefs’ lead back, Hunt should be considered a RB1 option for Week 8 against the Raiders.
Patrick Mahomes

KC Quarterback #15

Patrick Mahomes completed 16-of-27 attempts for 154 yards and two interceptions in the Chiefs’ 28-18 Week 7 win against the 49ers, adding five rushes for 39 yards and a touchdown.

The Chiefs were once again run heavy, logging 38 rushing attempts with Kareem Hunt leading the way. Kansas City lost another pass catcher, JuJu Smith-Schuster, who aggravated a lingering hamstring issue. Mahomes powered his way into the end zone for a short rushing score in the fourth quarter to avoid a another catastrophic fantasy outing. The offensive injuries plaguing the Chiefs and the team’s stellar defense likely mean Mahomes won’t be asked to do much this season. He has one touchdown pass over his past three games. Mahomes should be considered a superflex-only option in Week 8 against Raiders.
Jayden Daniels

WAS Quarterback #5

Commanders HC Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels (ribs) will undergo more tests after the team’s Week 7 win over the Panthers.

The most information we have on Daniels’ injury came from his mother, who posted on social media that he was “fine” shortly after he left the field. Things didn’t look too serious on the sideline, as Daniels appeared jovial and in good spirits with his teammates when he returned to the field, but these additional tests will be the real tell as to the severity of his injury. If Daniels is unable to go in Week 8 against the Bears, Marcus Mariota will make his first start of the season.
D.J. Reed

NYJ Cornerback #4

Jets declared CB D.J. Reed, OT Carter Warren, OL Max Mitchell, RB Israel Abanikanda, EDGE Braiden McGregor, WR Malachi Corley, and CB Michael Carter inactive in Week 7 against the Steelers.

Reed came into the game listed as a game-time decision after suffering a groin injury in the team’s Monday Night Football loss to the Bills. That said, the Jets get a new face in the locker room in the form of wide receiver Davante Adams, who will suit up for his new team just five days after being acquired via trade with the Raiders.
Brandon Aiyuk

SF Wide Receiver #11

Brandon Aiyuk (knee) was ruled out of the 49ers’ Week 7 game against the Chiefs.

Aiyuk took a frightening hit to his left knee on a reception just before halftime. He hobbled to the blue medical tent before being carted to the locker room. It would be something of a surprise if Aiyuk, who has 23 catches for 351 scoreless yards on the season, doesn’t miss significant time. His absence would make Jauan Jennings an interesting fantasy option when he returns from his hip injury.
Jayden Daniels

WAS Quarterback #5

Jayden Daniels (ribs) will not return in the Commanders’ Week 7 game against the Panthers.

This news comes from the CBS broadcast. With the Commanders carrying a 27-0 lead into the second half, the team opted to not put him back on the field for a game that appears well in hand. We don’t know the severity of Daniels’ injury, but he was smiling and saluting fans as he returned to the sidelines in street clothes, and his mother posted “He’s fine #httc” to her social media account soon after he went to the locker room. Daniels completed two passes for six yards and ran for another 50 yards on his lone drive of the game. All eyes are now on the rookie’s Week 8 availability, when the Commanders take on No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams and the Bears.
JuJu Smith-Schuster

KC Wide Receiver #9

JuJu Smith-Schuster exited with a hamstring injury in Week 7 against the 49ers.

Smith-Schuster, who entered the game battling a hamstring issue, is questionable to return, but would seem to be done for the day. Coming off a 130-yard outing in the Chiefs’ Week 5 game, Smith-Schuster profiled as the team’s No. 1 receiver coming into Sunday’s Super Bowl rematch against the Niners. Skyy Moore and Mecole Hardman could see more pass game involvement if JuJu misses extended time.
