Highsmith would project to inside linebacker in Arizona’s 3-4 scheme. It’s not a bad fit because of his lack of speed, but he’s very undersized at 6'1/228.

Reynolds is currently on injured reserve while recovering from finger surgery. The Broncos opened his practice window this week, but the veteran wideout will miss at least one more game. Devaughn Vele remains the only interesting Broncos receiver outside of Courtland Sutton, and even he is barely clocking in as a WR5.

Henry will be available as a touchdown-dependent fantasy starter in what should be a pass-heavy game script. Fantasy managers in need of a spot start could fire up the savvy veteran, though his upside is not what it once was.

It’s a rather sudden move from the veteran center. He has started all nine games at center for the Seahawks this year after joining the team on a one-year deal in the offseason. Something must have clicked for Williams during the team’s Week 10 bye that let him know it was time. Drafted by the Cowboys in 2018, Williams is hanging up the cleats with 86 starts across three teams to his name.

The Texans’ backup running back should be active on Monday night. He makes for a worthwhile bench stash and could even return RB4/5 value against the Cowboys’ struggling run defense.

Ferguson was held out of Thursday’s session because of the illness but returned for a full session on Friday. Barring a setback, he should be cleared from the team’s injury report over the week ahead of a Monday Night Football showdown with the Texans. Catching passes from Cooper Rush, Ferguson is just outside of the TE2 ranks for Week 11.

Collins is now firmly on track to suit up for the Texans’ Monday Night Football game against the Cowboys. Setbacks can always occur but Collins should be good to go for this one. Whether he is actually needed is another story entirely; the Cowboys’ offense is unlikely to facilitate a pass-happy game script but Collins should play efficiently, regardless.

The Ravens listed Jackson with a knee issue for his limited practice on Thursday. It’s a rest day as far as we’re concerned. Head coach John Harbaugh has previously called his knee “injury” a rest situation as well, so there’s nothing to see here. Lamar should continue his MVP-caliber campaign as fantasy’s QB1 overall versus the Steelers this week.

The same is true of Gabe Davis, who is playing through a shoulder injury. Davis is not on the fantasy radar with Mac Jones under center. Thomas only caught two passes for 12 yards in Jones’s first start. Things should turn around as the Jags go from facing an ironclad Minnesota defense to a more manageable matchup with the Lions. Still, it’s hard to trust BTJ as anything other than a WR3 without Trevor Lawrence on the sticks.

Harris is good to go after practicing in full twice in a row to close the week. The Ravens’ pass-funnel defense complicates his scoring potential but his high-volume workload remains intact. He should be in fantasy lineups as usual.

Head coach Doug Pederson told reporters Bigsby would attempt to practice on Friday. The second-year back couldn’t even muster a limited participant designation and was ruled out after receiving his third straight DNP. He will look to get back on the field after Jacksonville’s Week 12 bye. Travis Etienne will see the bulk of the touches in his absence, putting him back in the RB2 ranks for a week.
