John Brown, WR, BUF: Knee — OUT
Impact: Gabriel Davis will fill in for Brown and could deliver some value.

Dawson Knox, TE, BUF: Calf — OUT/IR
Impact: Tyler Kroft can play, but Lee Smith must also sit as a result of Knox’s positive COVID-19 test.

Curtis Samuel, WR, CAR: Knee — Active
Impact: Keith Kirkwood could still see some action.

Joe Mixon, RB, CIN: Foot — OUT
Impact: Giovani Bernard could return huge value as he takes over the majority of Mixon’s workload.

John Ross III, WR, CIN: Illness — Inactive
Impact: There’s just no value here, as Tee Higgins has stepped up big time.

Austin Hooper, TE, CLE: Appendix — OUT
Impact: David Njoku and Harrison Bryant will split time in an effort to replace the ill tight end.

Aaron Jones, RB, GB: Calf — Inactive
Impact: Jamaal Williams is ready to have a huge day.

Robert Tonyan, TE, GB: Ankle — Active
Impact: Marcedes Lewis/Jace Sternberger fade into the background.

Michael Thomas, WR, NO: Hamstring — OUT
Impact: Tre’Quan Smith, Marquez Callaway and Deonte Harris are all the WRs that Drew Brees has to throw to this week.

Sam Darnold, QB, NYJ: Shoulder — Active
Impact: Still a lot to be desired in the WR department, though.

Jamison Crowder, WR, NYJ: Groin — Inactive
Impact: Denzel Mims was activated from IR and could see some extra targets.

Sam Ficken, K, NYJ: Groin — Inactive
Impact: Sergio Castillo, recently signed to the practice squad, is the team’s emergency option.

Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, WSH: Hamstring — OUT/IR
Impact: Dontrelle Inman should see a significant bump in value.

Isaiah Wright, WR, WSH: Shoulder — OUT
Impact: Cam Sims and Robert Foster might enter the WR mix.

Matt Milano, LB, BUF: Pectoral — Active

Offense

Tyler Eifert, TE, JAX: Neck — OUT
Impact: James O’Shaughnessy didn’t do much when he filled in after Eifert’s injury last week.

Chris Thompson, RB, JAX: Illness — OUT/IR
Impact: He has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. His limited fantasy value may be usurped by Devine Ozigbo, just off the IR.

Sammy Watkins, WR, KC: Hamstring — OUT
Impact: Demarcus Robinson and Mecole Hardman both see increased fantasy value.

Tyrod Taylor, QB, LAC: Chest — Questionable
Impact: Justin Herbert has been strong since taking over for Taylor, who might not start again this season, even when 100% healthy.

Justin Jackson, RB, LAC: Knee — Questionable
Impact: Expected to play and should see more work than Joshua Kelley.

KJ Hill Jr., WR, LAC: Hip — Questionable
Impact: Just as well if he sits, as Keenan Allen appears to be at full strength.

Bryan Edwards, WR, LV: Ankle — OUT
Impact: Hasn’t been ready for a month now, which means job security for the trio of Henry Ruggs III, Nelson Agholor and Hunter Renfrow.

Julian Edelman, WR, NE: Knee — Questionable
Impact: What else is new? Edelman is questionable. Edelman will almost certainly play.

Raheem Mostert, RB, SF: Ankle — OUT/IR
Impact: JaMycal Hasty and Jerick McKinnon will split RB duties …

Jeff Wilson Jr., RB, SF: Calf — Questionable
Impact: … with Tevin Coleman possibly rejoining the team next week.
