Hill was added to the team’s injury report on Friday with a wrist injury, maintaining that stats the following day which prompted the questionable status. Head coach Mike McDaniel was noncommittal in either direction when asked about the alpha wide receiver’s Week 10 status on Saturday, telling the media “we’ll see.” Fantasy managers are now placed in a precarious situation considering the Dolphins play on Monday night, meaning alternate plans are likely in order.

Collins missed the minimum four games after suffering a hamstring injury on a long touchdown early in the team’s Week 4 game. Expect the alpha wide receiver to immediately return to the top role in an offense sorely missing his services, now also without wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

Seibert suffered a hip injury in Week 9 and was ultimately unable to progress enough to kick against the Steelers. The team signed Zane Gonzalez to the practice squad before elevating him for Week 10.

This was a distinct possibility given the severity of his hamstring injury, with initial testing suggesting a partial avulsion of his hamstring tendon, meaning it was partially torn off the bone. Prescott will visit one final specialist for a final opinion on the matter better likely electing surgery to address the issue. Surgery would end the veteran quarterback’s season, leaving the Cowboys to ride off into the sunset in a lost year with Cooper Rush under center. Schefter’s report comes less than 10 minutes after the team elected not to place Prescott on injured reserve, which raised so questions regarding his situation. Now we know why as the timing likely was immaterial.

Considering the nature of his injury, this is likelier to mean that Prescott will miss more than four games rather than having a significant chance of returning in the next month of play. Even so, the fact the team did not place him on injured reserve widens the potential outcomes with an injury considered to be significant, with the decision to hold off on placing him on injured reserve likely at the request of the quarterback, who has been reported to be seeking additional opinions. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on the happenings in Dallas in the coming week to determine if they can expect the franchise quarterback back prior to fantasy playoffs.

It’s no surprise that Hill wasn’t spotted at practice after Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said “we’ll see” in regards to his availability this week. Hill also missed practice on Friday, but is doing everything he can to suit up against the Rams on Monday Night Football. McDaniel also described Hill’s wrist injury as “heating up.” It’s not what you want to hear this late in the week even with the team playing on Monday.

Dell was added to the injury report on Friday, but still got in a limited practice. Wilson notes that Nico Collins’ status with his hamstring is still to be determined and the Texans are prepared to play with Dell as the WR1 again this week if Collins can’t go.

McDaniel added that “we’ll see” and wouldn’t say he’s optimistic or pessimistic. Hill popped up on the injury report and missed practice with the wrist injury on Friday. The Dolphins have an extra day before their matchup against the Rams on Monday Night Football. Unfortunately, it looks like Hill will need the extra time in order to have a chance to play this week. For fantasy managers, the timing is less than ideal as Hill’s status is unlikely to be determined before kickoff Sunday.

Olave has already been ruled out for Week 10 against the Falcons. Rapoport notes that the move to IR is expected to become official later today. That puts Olave on the shelf for at least four games. Rapoport even speculated that given the nature of the injury and the team’s record, Olave’s season could already be over. Olave was placed on a backboard and carted off the field after he suffered his second concussion of the season and fifth documented concussion of his football-playing career in Week 9 against the Panthers.

The Rams’ offensive line is quietly trending toward a midseason turnaround after operating as one of the league’s worst units early on. Hopefully, Jackson can stack another full practice on Saturday and suit up for the first time since Week 2. Fellow OL Steve Avila (knee) likewise practiced in full on Thursday.
