Adams missed the first two practices of the week while dealing with the pair of ailments. He was spotted back on the field on Friday. The wrist issue doesn’t seem major and players typically play through illnesses, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he is expected to suit up. Adams has served as a check-down option for Aaron Rodgers since joining the Jets, capping him at 91 yards through four games. Still, Adams has 24 targets over the past two weeks, keeping him in the WR2 ranks for a matchup with a more than beatable Colts defense.

Lloyd’s health issues have run the gamut this season. The talented rookie is currently in returning from a stint on injured reserve, where he recovered from both ankle and hamstring injuries suffered earlier this year. Demovsky adds, “since Lloyd’s 21-day practice window opened already and an appendectomy usually requires several weeks recovery, the Packers are talking to the NFL to see if there’s a way he can still play later on.” We wish Lloyd a swift and complete recovery from his appendectomy. Re-draft managers do not need to continue rostering him at this time.

Andersen had been dealing with the knee issue for roughly a month heading into Week 10. he was cleared to play but re-aggravated the knee issue and is now going to miss more time. An IR stint wouldn’t be surprising given the lingering nature of the issue.

Milano closed the week with three consecutive Limited Participant practice designations but will ultimately wait until after the Bills’ Week 12 bye before suiting up. He appears highly likely to play in Week 13 given this week’s participation.

Jones will play through the pain this week, likely on a high-volume workload against the Titans’ stout run defense. He can be started as an RB2 though he comes with a little more risk than he usually would. Cam Akers is a prudent bench stash given the circumstances.

Allgeier was limited in Wednesday’s practice with the quad issue. It was just a maintenance day for the bruising back as he returned for a full session on Thursday. Allgeier is a touchdown-or-bust RB3 heading into his Week 11 matchup with Denver.

Cousins was limited in Wednesday’s practice but got upgraded to a full session the following day. Head coach Raheem Morris called it normal soreness for Cousins and wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who was added to the injury report with an Achilles issue. Nothing to see here. Staring down a tough matchup with a strong Broncos defense, Cousins will hang out near the top of the QB2 ranks for Week 11.

Darnold will be available for those who need him in two-quarterback leagues but a throwing-hand injury coupled with worsening play is hardly encouraging. Darnold is firmly in the QB2 ranks rather than being a QB1-viable.

Mooney was a surprise addition to the injury report on Thursday, being listed as a limited participant because of the Achilles injury. The move was likely a precaution as he has no game designation heading into the weekend. Mooney has at least 88 yards in each of his past three games, putting him squarely in the WR3 ranks for Week 11.

Hill has proven himself as a difference-making interior pass rusher, whose early-season absence allowed opponents to bully the Bengals’ front seven. Among 62 NFL interior defenders with at least 140 pass-rushing snaps, Hill ranks 19th in pass-rush win rate (11.5 percent). Hopefully, both Hill and DE Trey Hendrickson (neck) can suit up on Sunday.

Backup tackle Joe Noteboom is listed as doubtful. The Rams will likely default to Warren McClendon at right tackle for Week 11. An increase in pressure could result in more quick looks for Cooper Kupp, but you’re starting both Kupp and Puka Nacua regardless of the offensive line situation.
