That staff might include Romeo Crennel as defensive coordinator. Another candidate to run the Browns’ defense if Mangini gets the job is current Raiders DC Rob Ryan. Mangini nearly got Ryan on his Jets staff last year.

Bosa practiced in a limited capacity all week and is currently listed as questionable. He did the same last week and was able to play, notching two quarterback pressures and a 30.8 percent pass-rush win rate. He should be good to go for Week 10.

Bucs coach Todd Bowles told reporters last week that Irving will likely be dealing with this toe injury for the rest of the season. He then noted that the team will limit his practice reps during the week to keep him ready for Sundays. Irving led the Bucs’ three-headed backfield with seven carries in Week 9 but only turned that into 24 yards. He also caught three balls for an additional 10 yards. As part of a nightmare rotation, Irving is a lowly RB for Week 10.

Bosa remained limited in practice all week so he has a decent chance of suiting up. He leads 49ers defenders in both quarterback pressures (46) and NFL sacks (4.5) so his loss would be substantial if he were unable to play.

He was limited in practice throughout the week after missing Week 9 with the shoulder issue. Davis wasn’t doing much with Trevor Lawrence on the field and will likely be catching passes from Mac Jones if he plays at all this week. Fantasy managers can forget about Davis for the foreseeable future.

Mayfield missed the first two practices of the week with the toe issue. The Tampa Bay Times’ Rick Stroud reported yesterday that he would be “fine” and that appears to be the case. Mayfield has thrown five touchdowns in two games without Mike Evans or Chris Godwin. He also threw two interceptions two weeks ago and only managed 200 yards last week versus the Chiefs, so fantasy managers will have to take the good with the bad. In another tough matchup with the 49ers, Mayfield will straddle the QB1/2 border for Week 10.

The 49ers’ kicker returns for what could be a high-scoring affair. Fantasy managers in need of a capable kicker in an efficient offense should check their free agency pool to see if Moody went unclaimed during this week’s waiver wire run.

We do not yet know how the 49ers’ backfield touches will be distributed but Mason has more than proven himself as a capable contributor. He remains RB4-viable thanks to his rushing talents and the 49ers’ efficient offense. This weekend’s game should provide clarity on the situation moving forward.

Diggs played through the calf issue last week. He was limited in the first two practices of the week before being downgraded to a DNP on Friday. That’s when the illness designation was added to his practice report, so we’ll assume that is what caused him to be held out and not the calf issue. Players tend to play through illnesses, especially when they get Saturday to work through the ailment. Diggs should be no different. Linebacker Eric Kendricks is also questionable. He played through his shoulder issue last week and is likely to do so once again.

The Buccaneers have struggled to slow opposing passing games and Jennings is regularly producing explosive plays when given the opportunity. He is WR3/4-viable here with week-winning upside. Jennings could function as the team’s No. 1 wide receiver with Deebo Samuel Sr. (rib/oblique) playing through injury.

Parsons returned to practice earlier this week but never got in a full session. He has been out with the ankle injury since Week 4. With Dak Prescott on injured reserve, the Cowboys’ season is functionally over, so there’s no reason to hurry the star pass-rusher back into the lineup. Parsons is a true game-time call for Week 10.
