Williams continued to garner one of the most robust running back roles in the league but went the way of the team, largely struggling to find room against a reinvigorated Dolphins defense. The team also struggled mightily in the red zone and failed to score an offensive touchdown for only the second time with Matthew Stafford under center. Fantasy managers can take solace in the fact that Williams’ robust role should make performances like this one few and far between, even though that doesn’t help ease the pain for those counting on his production in Week 10. Williams could find better success against another AFC East opponent in the Patriots in Week 11.

News around Harris’ injured ankle has run the gamut at this point but Wednesday provides our first piece of empirical evidence; Harris did not practice to begin the week. Wednesday DNP designations are hardly something to panic over but fantasy managers should at least look into Jaylen Warren’s availability.

Wilson missed Week 10 with the shoulder injury. Marquez Valdes-Scantling led the Saints’ wideouts in routes and caught three passes for 109 yards and two scores. If you were looking for a reason to keep MVS out of your lineup this week, Wilson’s return potentially taking some routes off the table for Valdez-Scantling should suffice.

Allgeier appears likely to play given his early-week availability but this is a situation to monitor, both for managers rostering Allgeier and/or Bijan Robinson. Allgeier remains a worthwhile bench stash.

Decker just got over a chest injury last week but then suffered a shoulder injury during Thursday’s practice that ultimately forced him to miss Sunday’s game. A limited session on Wednesday is a step in the right direction. He also told reporters the plan is for him to play this week.

Cousins evidently suffered some sort of throwing-arm injury in Week 10 but his early-week practice participation should assuage concerns about Week 11 for now. The matchup-based fantasy starter profiles as a high-end QB2 against the Broncos.

Unless we receive word about London suffering a setback at some point, fantasy managers can expect London to be a full-go moving forward. The borderline WR1/2 has a tough matchup against the Broncos this week.

It’s unclear when Henry picked up the injury. If this was an in-game issue, then practicing in a limited capacity is a great sign for his availability. If he suffered the injury in practice today, Henry must be placed on injury-watch.

Bigsby has been playing through the ankle issue for a few weeks. He re-aggravated it on Sunday and was forced to leave the game. The Jags listed him as questionable to return. He eventually did but barely saw the field and finished the day with just two carries. Fantasy managers can do better than a banged-up Bigsby in Week 11.

Thomas was limited in all three practices last week and played through his questionable tag on Sunday. The same was true of Gabe Davis, who remained limited in today’s practice because of a lingering shoulder issue. Both players are expected to suit up again this week. Trevor Lawrence has already been ruled out, meaning Mac Jones will make his second start. Without Lawrence to pepper him with deep shots, Thomas is at risk of falling out of the WR3 ranks this week.

The Eagles estimated Smith as a DNP for the first practice of the week but upgraded him to a limited session on Tuesday and Wednesday. His practice reps will likely remain limited going forward, but he doesn’t appear to be at any risk of missing time because of the minor hamstring issue. Smith sits in the WR2 ranks for a potential shootout with the Commanders.
