Bucs WR Chris Godwin (fibula) is not expected to play Sunday vs. 49ers, per source.

Related Players: Emeka Egbuka, Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson, Cade Otton

Godwin hasn't looked quite the same since coming back in Week 4, turning 14 targets into six catches and 52 yards. We would say this would open the door for more Egbuka usage, but he's already been the focal point of the offense with Godwin ailing and Mike Evans missing time.

Shepard moves closer up in dart-throw territory, while this *could* finally be a game where Otton makes for a sensible TE streamer.

No Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall at today's practice, but Jauan Jennings was back.

Meanwhile, Mac Jones, (ankle, oblique) was on hand but was jogging gingerly between drills and didn't seem to be doing any throwing.

The 49ers injury list has looked like a scroll to this point in the season but they *do* seem to be getting on the mend. For Week 6, we should treat Jennings as a WR2 against the Buccaneers if he's fully back to health (and Pearsall misses), while Kendrick Bourne makes for an interesting WR3 if both are forced to miss.

49ers QB Brock Purdy also not practicing today due to his toe injury, putting Mac Jones on track to start Sunday at Tampa.

Jones is also dealing with a minor injury, but he looks to be in line to get the start. The Buccaneers actually present a pretty good matchup, which would put him near the top-15 conversation for QB streamers.

Falcons head coach Raheem Morris on wide receiver Darnell Mooney: "Right now, Mooney is still day-to-day. We'll see what that is. He'll be out today. We'll get a good feel for what it looks like moving forward."

Related Players: Drake London, Kyle Pitts, Ray-Ray McCloud

Looks like Mooney will likely be out Week 6, which leaves London/Pitts and Bijan Robinson at the top of the food chain. While the other two are obvious starts, this solidifies Pitts in fringe TE1/2 range.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (hamstring) remains out of practice.

Lt Ronnie Stanley (ankle) and S Kyle Hamilton (groin) were practicing.

New safeties Alohi Gilman (No.12) and C.J. Gardner Johnson (No.6) are practicing as well.

Related Players: Cooper Rush

Looks like another Cooper Rush week, which is not great news for the Ravens offense. It looks like Ronnie Stanley is set to return but anyone outside of Zay Flowers and/or Derrick Henry in your starting lineup would be a tough sell with Jackson out.

RB Tyrone Tracy, who hasn't played since Sept. 21 because of a shoulder injury, is off the report and good to go.

Related Players: Cam Skattebo, Devin Singletary

Skattebo has done plenty to secure his position as the "1A" in New York, but on an offense that isn't projected to score many points, that's far less valuable with Tracy in the mix. Consider Skattebo more of an RB3, while Tracy has similar upside, with a boost in PPR leagues.

Bengals HC Zac Taylor said Joe Flacco will start Sunday at Green Bay.

Related Players: Jake Browning

Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins managers rejoice. Flacco as a QB streaming option is probably a little too thin, but the targets should be there for the WR tandem, putting them in respective WR1 and WR3 consideration.

The Giants have ruled out there players for TNF against the #Eagles: LB Swayze Bozeman (ankle), LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring), and WR Darius Slayton (hamstring).

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Theo Johnson, Jalin Hyatt

An already-thin pass-catching group gets even thinner in a tough divisional matchup. Jaxson Dart has used his legs effectively through his first two starts, but his ceiling is dangerously low for managers anticipating streaming him.

Robinson, likewise, is a low-ceiling WR3 play, while Johnson can be streamed as a top-15 option at tight end.

Cardinals QB Kyler Murray, dealing with a foot injury, is not expected to practice today. An injury to watch...

Related Players: Jacoby Brissett

Murray was off the field on more than one occasion in Week 5, so this is obviously a bad sign for his Week 6 availability. We'll keep an eye on things, but Brissett would be off streaming radars against the Colts if he does end up getting a spot start.

Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) is not expected to play Thursday vs. Eagles, per sources.

Hamstring on a short week is tough. Will be out barring surprising uptick.
