Robinson is a former second-round pick of the Jaguars, playing in and starting 91 games in Jacksonville over the past eight seasons. He was benched in favor of Walker Little for the Jaguars’ Week 8 game and is now dealt to the Vikings, who are in need of a left tackle after Christian Darrisaw suffered a season-ending ACL tear last week. Though Robinson had been struggling this season, he offers reinforcement at left tackle as the 5-2 Vikings try to stay in contention. Robinson is in the last y ...29 October 2024

Zuerlein was added to the Jets’ Tuesday injury report with a left knee issue. His addition is an interesting development after the Jets brought in kickers to try out on Tuesday. Zuerlein has made just 9-of-15 field goals on the season, struggling to generate points for the Jets. Between the injury listing and kicker tryouts, there is a good chance Zuerlein is not a Jet by the end of the week.29 October 2024
In addition to Fotu, DBs Tony Adams (hamstring) and Ashtyn Davis (concussion) did not practice on Tuesday. The non-participation is a troubling sign that all three defenders will be inactive on a short week against the Texans for Thursday Night Football Week 9.

Pierce was listed as a non-participant for the second straight day, an indicator that he may not be ready for the Texans’ Thursday game against the Jets. He carried the ball once against the Colts in Week 8 and now Dare Ogunbowale is slated to be the Texans’ RB2 for Week 9. Ultimately, it looks like another Joe Mixon workhorse day this week.29 October 2024
Lazard was listed as a non-participant for the second straight practice. He was inactive against the Patriots in Week 8 and interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said on Monday that Lazard is week-to-week. Expect Lazard to sit out Thursday night against the Texans as Aaron Rodgers will be down one of his favorite targets for a second straight week.29 October 2024
Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Mosley would be seeing a neck and spine specialist on Monday. This indicates Mosley will miss extended time, at the least Thursday night against the Texans. His backup, LB Chazz Surratt, was limited with a heel injury on Tuesday after being listed with a ‘DNP’ on Monday.29 October 2024
Jones Jr. was waived last Saturday by the Bears and finds a new home in Jacksonville. The former third-round pick had just two rushing attempts with the Bears this year, and is sitting on 22 career targets and 19 career rushes. The Jaguars haven’t exactly been the team that has generated open area for their offensive players in space this year, but perhaps Jones Jr. just needed a fresh slate.29 October 2024
He was active in five games, taking three carries. Gaskin hasn’t received more than 10 carries in a season since 2021. It’s possible he’ll sign back to the Minnesota practice squad after clearing waivers.29 October 2024

Pectoral injuries are usually season-enders for offensive linemen, but we’ll be kind and say “he’ll miss at least four weeks” as all players placed on injured reserve must. Murray had an 82.4 PFF grade in a small sample size, and the 27-year-old will be missed. The Bears will hope Teven Jenkins is able to go this week.29 October 2024
Hubbard, in the final year of his rookie contract, has started all eight game for the Panthers so far and found his way into elite workload. It seemed like there would be plenty of incentive to move on if the Panthers were turning the backfield over to Jonathan Brooks, but they are “not having a firesale.” OK. Hubbard remains a RB2 candidate until the long-rumored Brooks takeover comes. Horn has not played outstanding football this year but his 69.3 PFF coverage grade indicates he’s still ...29 October 2024
Instead, the Colts, per Holder, “want Richardson to take a step back, take a break from the pressures of the job and try to grow during this time.” That quote sure makes it seem like Richardson will get the job back at some point this season, especially if and when the Colts fall out of the playoff race. You don’t have to hold on to Richardson in standard leagues, but dynasty leaguers don’t need to dump Richardson this very instant. It sure seems like the Colts have made an abrupt about ...29 October 2024
Hopkins only had 23 snaps in his Chiefs debut last week. Against the Bucs on Monday night, Hopkins should get more targets, perhaps enough to take him up as high as a WR2 given Tampa’s defensive struggles and inability to stay out of shootouts. It’s worth remembering that the Chiefs offense has not been a fantasy moneypot this year though, and Hopkins may normally just be a WR3 once he starts taking the full snap complement.29 October 2024

Without much insight into how long this decision will last, it’s hard to know how much to make of it. Flacco and the Colts will head into Week 9’s game against the Vikings in a tough fantasy spot. Flacco should raise the fantasy floors of most of the Indianapolis pass-catchers as far as catchable targets, but losing Richardson may lose them some ceiling. Flacco will be a borderline QB2 in Week 9. Richardson should probably be regarded as a threat to get his job back, especially if/when the C ...29 October 2024
That is, unfortunately, what it looked like on Sunday after Diggs limped off the NRG Stadium turf. Diggs will be a free agent after the season and will probably be looked at as a reclamation project as a 31-year-old rehabbing a torn ACL. For the Texans currently, Tank Dell will push into a more featured role in the passing game and will likely remain a fantasy WR2/3 even when Nico Collins comes back from a hamstring injury that has him on injured reserve. Dalton Schultz has also pushed higher in ...29 October 2024
The Giants do not have reasonable alternatives behind Jones, and that probably remains the real reason he’s being given the rope that he is. But that apparently is not going to stop the Giants beat from asking about it after literally every game. Jones will again try to turn it around against a Commanders defense that has been showing some signs of life lately in Week 9. He will be a superflex-only consideration for that game.29 October 2024
Johnson is in the final year of his deal and the Panthers have reportedly not been happy with his missed practices and on-field play. Of course, the Panthers were the ones who chose not to extend Johnson when they acquired him last offseason. Person lists the Buccaneers, 49ers, Commanders, Chargers, and Texans (if Stefon Diggs is knocked out) as potential landing spots for Johnson. It sure seems like he’s the big name most likely to move before the deadline.29 October 2024
Washington managed a 3/46 line on four targets while seeing 76 percent of the snaps on Sunday as the Jaguars lost Brian Thomas Jr. and Kirk. When Kirk went down last year, Washington’s role expanded. We probably won’t see him as a major fantasy factor every week, but the environment of a potential Thomas Jr. absence and the horrific Jacksonville defense should create some bubble matchups where he can spike a WR2 or WR3 finish on the week.
