Updating a previous report, the Chicago Bears have updated their Week 8 injury report, moving wide receiver Allen Robinson II (concussion) from questionable to doubtful for Sunday against the Saints. Robinson hasn’t practiced all week and is unlikely to play this weekend, so fantasy managers should remove him from their starting lineups right now. It means that Anthony Miller and rookie Darnell Mooney will be

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton (concussion) is officially listed as doubtful for Week 8 on Sunday night against the Eagles. Dalton remains in the league’s concussion protocol and is unlikely to return to practice on Saturday, paving the way for rookie Ben DiNucci to make his first career start in the divisional matchup. The Cowboys are saying that Dalton should be good for next week

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (concussion) and linebacker Khalil Mack (ankle) are both questionable for Week 8 against the Saints. Robinson is on the wrong side of questionable since he hasn’t practiced at all this week, so fantasy managers need to be making plans to be without him this Sunday. An A-Rob absence would mean more targets for Anthony Miller and rookie Darnell

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel has ruled out rookie cornerback Kristian Fulton (knee) and safety Dane Cruikshank (groin) for Week 8 against the Bengals. The good news is that linebacker Jadeveon Clowney (knee) returned to practice on Friday and has been removed from the final injury report. Tennessee’s secondary might be a little bit more vulnerable this weekend against Cincinnati, but they’re still a

The Minnesota Vikings placed cornerback Mike Hughes (neck) on Injured Reserve on Friday and signed safety Curtis Riley in a corresponding move. Hughes has missed two games this season and wasn’t able to get healthy during the team’s bye last week. The third-year cornerback had posted 13 tackles (nine solo) and one pass defensed in his four games (two starts) this season. It’s more bad

The New York Giants Defense has not been a consistent unit for fantasy managers this season and faces another bad matchup in Week 8. Tampa Bay allows the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing defenses and even though the Buccaneers are banged-up, New York isn’t a recommended start in fantasy. New York is in the bottom third of the NFL in total defense and shouldn’t pose

After undergoing an MRI exam on Friday, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) is considered day-to-day, according to a source. Ridley will have a chance to return for the Week 9 game against the Broncos after some extra rest, according to interim head coach Raheem Morris. The 25-year-old third-year receiver had his ankle rolled up on in the second quarter of the Thursday night

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller is having another solid season and will have a great opportunity to continue that this week against the Browns. Waller is currently third in fantasy points per game among tight ends, and the Browns rank 28th against opposing tight ends this season. He is leading the Raiders in both targets and receiving yards, and the Browns will have

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate has been trending downward in the Giants offense and faces another tough test Monday against the Buccaneers. Tate caught a touchdown last week versus the Eagles, but it was his only catch of the game making it back-to-back weeks the veteran receiver had just one catch. Tate has just three targets over the past two weeks and has

The Green Bay Packers have ruled out running back Aaron Jones (calf) for the Week 8 game against the division-rival Vikings. Things were trending this way with Jones having not seen the practice field at all this week. He tweaked his calf in practice last week and didn’t play in the Week 7 win over the Texans, so this will be Jones’ second straight missed

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Henry Ruggs III is likely not a volume receiver in Week 8 against the Browns, but he certainly has big-play potential. He showed why he was so dangerous in Week 5 against the Chiefs, getting loose in the secondary for a 72-yard touchdown. However, it seems as if that is where his value lies at the time. The good

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton is coming off back-to-back two-catch games and faces another stiff test Monday versus Tampa Bay. Slayton has had some boom games this season including multiple 100-yard efforts, but he also has a tendency to disappear in New York’s inconsistent offense. Slayton has three or fewer catches in five of seven games this season so it is risky to

Updating a previous report, Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) is listed as questionable to play in Week 8 against the Packers. The Vikings previously had taken Cook off the final injury report, but they’ve since made an adjustment. Cook has had the last two weeks to heal up and returned to practice this week, so he’s still on track to play this Sunday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram has been a major disappointment in fantasy and now faces another stiff test Monday against the Buccaneers. Engram is averaging just 32 yards-per-game and is yet to find the end zone this season. The small sliver of good news for fantasy managers is Engram had nine targets last week, but he is simply too risky to trust as

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had his worst performance of the year in Week 7, rushing for just 17 yards on 10 carries. He will have an opportunity to rebound this week, but rushing yards still will not come easy. Jacobs is averaging just 3.4 yards per carry on the season, and the Browns are allowing just 3.8 yards per carry, which ranks

New York Jets kicker Sam Ficken (groin) will test his injured groin in practice on Friday, but he’s in danger of missing his second straight game in Week 8 against the Chiefs. If Ficken can’t play, Sergio Castillo would be elevated from the practice squad to play this Sunday. Ficken has made nine of his 10 field-goal tries this year and all six of his

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is having a career year so far, and he will have a good chance to build on that against the Browns. He has multiple passing touchdowns in every game this season other than Week 1 and currently ranks 12th in fantasy points per game among quarterbacks. He has a favorable matchup against the Browns Defense. They have allowed the

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has disappointed in his sophomore season and will face another tough defense in Week 8. Jones is yet to play a turnover-free game this season and will face a Buccaneers Defense that is third in the NFL in takeaways. In addition to the turnovers, Jones is yet to have 250 yards in a game since Week 1. Jones is

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is not expected to play in Week 8 against the Jets, according to a source. It will Watkins’ third straight missed game after he missed practice all week. Both Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson will continue to see additional playing time with Watkins sidelined, but they are both boom/bust WR4/5 options in deeper fantasy leagues in a

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) was taken off the final injury report and is good to go for Week 8 against the division-rival Packers. Cook was injured in Week 5 and missed the Week 6 contest before the team had their bye in Week 7, so Cook is well-rested and ready to go. He was leading the NFL in rushing yards before his
