Spears didn’t practice Thursday but was a full-go on Friday. He’ll be a sketchy FLEX option against the Colts in Week 6 assuming he plays; it sure does seem like he will after a full session.16 October 2026
Warren popped up on the injury report on Friday after suffering the injury in practice. Fantasy managers who were relying on Warren likely won’t find a good enough option to replace him with proactively on waivers at this point, so it makes some sense to sit and wait for more reporting to come out or for him to be ruled out. This was, frankly, the last thing the Colts needed given how banged up their receiving corps has been.16 October 2026
Given how Downs’ season is going, it’s hard to believe he’s going to do much with the extra runway, but Tyler Warren (groin) popping up on the report could shift more targets to Downs and Keenan Allen on Sunday against the Titans.16 October 2026
It was a pop-up DNP for Baker on Friday after he had initially been listed as NIR-Rest on Wednesday. Ominous. Baker stands a real chance at missing Sunday’s game and throwing the Cardinals defense into (checking notes) chaos against the Rams.

The Lions lose one of their top backup offensive lineman and LB Devin White (forearm) to injured reserve. Lions coach Dan Campbell told reporters post-game last week that White would likely require surgery.16 October 2026
He got in a limited session and the Rams apparently trust him to play despite a pair of missed practices on Wednesday and Thursday. Colby Parkinson (shoulder) also avoided the final report. Tyler Higbee is the Rams tight end you should be using at this point.16 October 2026
Williams was limited in practice all week, making it seem like he could wait another week on the PUP list. When he does come back, the WR3 role would seem to be wide open for him after Jayden Reed’s injury. He remains a decent fantasy football stash if you have extra injured reserve spots.16 October 2026
Porter downgraded from full to limited on Friday and wound up with this status despite practicing all three days this week. Peculiar. Matthew Golden and Christian Watson would be better off on Sunday if Porter wasn’t able to go.16 October 2026
This is a marked downgrade for Thomas, as he had been skipping plenty of practice days but at least had been cleared off the injury report on Fridays the last few weeks. John Harbaugh said Thomas was “basically full go” today, which seems sketchy in light of this listing. If we take the coach at his word, it seems likely that Thomas will play through this. Ditto Jermaine Eluemunor, who also is questionable after missing the first two days of practice.16 October 2026
It’s Thomas Fidone hours in New York, marone.16 October 2026
Apparently, Wicks’ day off on Thursday was only a rest day. The Eagles’ veteran wide receiver was limited on Wednesday and practiced fully today. Wicks played through the injury last week, posting a 5/63 receiving line with DeVonta Smith sidelined. Smith is back this week. Wicks is a boom-bust FLEX starter, catching passes thrown by backup Tanner McKee.16 October 2026
Mooney turned seven targets into 14 yards last week and does not need to be trusted to do better this week.16 October 2026
The guard got in three limited sessions, he and Emery Jones Jr. (ankle) are both questionable. Ronnie Stanley, John Simpson and Roger Rosengarten were removed from the injury report.16 October 2026
He practiced in full all week after missing the last two games following finger surgery. The Ravens’ big free-agent acquisition will be full go against the Browns in Week 6.16 October 2026
He’ll miss at least the next four weeks. Shipley was diagnosed with a partially torn plantar fascia and was set to miss multiple weeks per reporting, so this makes sense. By the time he comes back, Saquon Barkley should be healthy, so he’s not a must-keep in short-bench leagues.16 October 2026
Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles gets another tick in the obfuscation column. On Wednesday, Bowles told reporters that Mayfield has not resumed throwing yet. Today, Palmer tells us that Mayfield “was pushing hard to play,” and, perhaps briefly, resumed throwing on Monday. Apparently, his thumb reacted poorly. Palmer adds that Mayfield is “getting better,” but that does not necessarily mean he will be able to play next week. Stay tuned.16 October 2026
Williams was limited in practice all week, making it seem like he could wait another week on injured reserve. When he does come back, the WR3 role would seem to be wide open for him after Jayden Reed’s injury. He remains a decent fantasy football stash if you have extra injured reserve spots.16 October 2026
We’re Skyying less and less. Assuming Savion Williams (ankle) isn’t activated off injured reserve, J. Michael Sturdivant could become a deep-league stab or DFS punt against the Cowboys.16 October 2026
