Rapoport: Raiders to activate Jack Bech from IR

Kincaid got banged up late in Week 6 and then got a bye week to rest up. He was limited in all three practices this week before being listed as questionable for Week 8. Kincaid will play a part-time role, per usual, but his elite efficiency has been enough to keep him in the TE1 mix so far. Playing in a shootout with the Ravens, he’ll remain in the top 12 tight ends this week as well.

The good news, per Wolfe, is that Jackson will still be able to move despite playing on a bum ankle. Jackson told reporters the pain is “bearable” earlier in the week, which didn’t exactly inspire confidence from Ravens fans and fantasy managers. On the other hand, if Jackson is out there, we expect him to be mobile enough to lead a top-flight offense. A date with the Bills, which features the highest game total of the week, should also create an incredible environment for fantasy production. He is back at the top of the QB1 mix for a likely shootout with the Bills.

The Colts are already the league’s biggest sellers ahead of the trade deadline and they’re not done yet. While they get plenty of interest in Downs, a third-round pick might be too much to ask after his slow start to the year. Downs has 26 catches for 307 yards as we approach the midway point of the season. Downs is also set to become a free agent in the spring, meaning that he might play only a handful of games for his new team. On the other hand, his disappointing season can largely be written off as the product of a failing offense. Fantasy managers should at least hold onto Downs until the trade deadline, even if he’s barely a WR3 as things stand right now.

The Vikings dots have been getting connected for a while now, so it’s not surprising to see something of a confirmation they are interested. The Giants and Bengals also make all the sense in the world. Green Bay would be a fit, as well, though it would be a bit surprising to see the Broncos add to their running back surplus. Taylor, of course, would blow their other backs out of the water. There’s enough smoke here to believe a fire might break out, but the Colts can probably be taken at their word that it would take an overpay to pry away what amounts to their franchise player right now.

Moore missed the Bills’ previous two games but had the bye week to get healthy. He was limited in practice throughout the week before being listed as questionable. He’s likely still not at full strength, but fantasy managers can’t be too concerned given the game environment. The Bills’ matchup with Baltimore has all of the makings of a shootout. Moore was also operating as Josh Allen’s clear No. 1 receiver before aggravating his shoulder injury. Moore is a strong WR2 option for Week 8.

Parsons is still working his way back from the torn ACL he suffered late in the 2025 season. Per Rapoport, Parsons is expected to return to practice this week, meaning he will be designated to return from injured reserve in the coming days. He will then ramp up for a few weeks before hopefully returning in Week 12 against the Rams. Green Bay’s Week 11 bye will give him some extra time to get fully up to speed.

A public records request revealed three additional accusations of domestic violence against Jacobs over the weekend. That is on top of the initial incident in which Jacobs ultimately pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery and criminal damage to property. The NFL put out a statement saying they will continue to look into Jacobs’ situation. Even though Jacobs was removed from the Commissioner’s Exempt List two weeks ago, the league’s investigation was still ongoing. Rapoport notes that the league is also looking into whether Jacobs was “upfront” with them about his disturbing legal situation. Of note, Jacobs’ team pushed to have video of the most recent incident sealed from public access while the league actively sought to have it released. Rapoport makes it sound like it may take some time for a suspension to be announced, but it’s more likely than not that Jacobs is suspended because of the most recent revelations.
