The Buccaneers ruled out WR Chris Godwin (fibula) and RB Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) for Monday’s game against the Lions. They are also considering WRs Mike Evans (hamstring) and Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) as game-time decisions.

Rachaad White will get another start in the backfield for the Bucs while the passing game could be up in the air. With Godwin and Jalen McMillan out and Evans and Egbuka 50/50, Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson and Kameron Johnson could lead the charge on the outside with Cade Otton getting more targets over the middle at tight end. Whoever is on the field will see a good matchup as the Lions have had issues at the cornerback position (Terron Arnold is also injured) and their safety group won’t be 100 percent (Brian Branch is suspended and Kerby Joseph’s status is up in the air).

49ers ruled out QB Brock Purdy (toe) and WR Ricky Pearsall (knee) for Sunday night’s game against the Falcons.

49ers QB Mac Jones starts again.

Related Players: Kendrick Bourne, Jauan Jennings, Demarcus Robinson

We would've expected this to be Jauan Jennings weeks, but he's got a laundry list of ailments himself. Bourne can be considered a WR3, and if George Kittle ends up going, he should be locked into lineups as well.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr., who is in concussion protocol this week, is off the injury report and good to go Sunday versus the Packers.

Related Players: Zay Jones, Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch

MHJ will get Jacoby Brissett throwing him the ball this week, but it's arguable whether or not that's actually a downgrade from Kyler Murray. Consider Harrison a WR3 for Week 7.

Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell says Carson Wentz will start Sunday vs. the Eagles.

Max Brosmer will back him up and J.J. McCarthy, who is listed as questionable, will serve as the emergency No. 3 QB as he continues to work his way back from a high ankle sprain.

Fire up the narrative game talk. Wentz is probably a little thin as a QB streaming option, but he's got a nice floor as a SuperFlex QB2.

Titans have ruled out WR Calvin Ridley for Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots due to his hamstring injury.

Related Players: Elic Ayomanor, Van Jefferson, Tyler Lockett, Chimere Dike

We could continue to see a little more run out of rookie Dike, but the real beneficiary here is classmate Ayomanor, who is a nice Flex option against a Patriots defense that ranks 27th in WR aFPA.

TE Brock Bowers is listed as doubtful and WR Jakobi Meyers is questionable for Sunday’s game in Kansas City.

Related Players: Michael Mayer, Tre Tucker, Dont'e Thornton, Jack Bech

Mayer is a good streaming candidate this week, but the other ancillary pieces are a little risky to depend on. Tucker could be an interesting WR4 option without Jakobi, but Geno Smith can be ignored in leagues of all sizes.

Browns TE David Njoku is out for Sunday’s game vs. Miami due to his knee injury.

Related Players: Harold Fannin

This locks Fannin in as potentially the best streaming option of the week, and he should be viewed as a top-10 TE against the Dolphins defense.

Wide receiver Jalen Coker (hamstring) will be active on Sunday so he will play for the first time this season. A roster move must be made Saturday as he comes off injured reserve.

Related Players: Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Hunter Renfrow, Jimmy Horn

Coker could (very) easily become the No. 2 option in the Panthers passing game with no one else stepping up behind Legette. It's better to take a wait-and-see approach as it pertains to this week, but he should be on radars moving forward.

Canales says Chuba Hubbard is good to go.

Related Players: Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne

After two massive performances, Dowdle is incredibly likely to have the RB1 role with Hubbard being eased back in, which keeps him as a strong fantasy play. We'll have to see how things play out for the rest of the season.

Commanders coach Dan Quinn tells reporters that WR Terry McLaurin is out for Sunday.

Related Players: Deebo Samuel, Luke McCaffrey, Chris Moore, Jaylin Lane

Samuel is also dealing with an injury issue which could keep him out, which is awful news ahead of a juicy matchup against the Cowboys defense. If both were to miss, McCaffrey would be a very interesting sneaky start.
