Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is considered "day-to-day" with an ankle injury suffered during Sunday's win over the Titans.

The injury doesn't seem serious at all, especially considering head coach Jesse Minter said the team even contemplated putting Jackson back in the game. Jackson was spotted in a walking boot after the game, but he still looks to have a chance to not miss any time. The Ravens visit the Falcons on Sunday Night Football in Week 5.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley left Sunday’s game against the Rams with a hamstring injury.

Barkley was left the game early in the first quarter, was originally ruled questionable to return, but now will not return to the game. Tank Bigsby will lead the rushing attack for the time being, with Will Shipley mixed in.

Commanders QB Marcus Mariota is expected to miss time with an MCL injury.

Molly McGrath reported that Mariota will have tests done on his knee after aggravating the injury early in the game against the Colts. Rookie Athan Kaliakmanis took over at quarterback. The Commanders are hoping to get Jayden Daniels back next week. We’ll have more as this story develops.

The Seahawks are placing rookie running back Jadarian Price on injured reserve with a chest injury.

Price aggravated the injury in practice this week. He now will miss at least the next four games. He is eligible to return on November 2 against the Bears. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani will lead the backfield for the time being, and Zach Charbonnet can return in Week 5 and his practice window was opened on Thursday. The Seahawks' backfield is about to get very muddy for fantasy purposes. For this week, Wilson is RB22 and Holani is RB28 in half-PPR.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin is unlikely to play Sunday against the Colts in London with a hamstring injury.

McLaurin, who injured his hamstring Friday, was hopeful to be able to play through the injury Sunday, but that now looks unlikely. Stefon Diggs likely assumes the top target role but also keep an eye on rookie Antonio Williams, who impressed in Week 1 and just needs more opportunities on the field, which he now stands to get Sunday.

The Colts downgraded WR Keenan Allen (groin) to out for Sunday’s game against the Commanders in London.

Allen was originally listed as limited with a rest designation on Wednesday, but had his status downgraded as the week wore out, eventually getting the groin injury tag Thursday and missing practice Friday. He was originally listed as questionable but will now be held out of Sunday’s game overseas. With the host of injuries at the wide receiver position, Josh Downs could be in line for a very good day in London. Remember, this game kicks off at 9:30 AM EST.

Breece Hall, Adonai Mitchell, Dylan Parham, Mason Taylor, Kiko Mauigoa are out for Sunday

Related Players: Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Kenyon Sadiq, Garrett Wilson, Adonai Mitchell

Allen moves into the RB2/flex range as the favorite to handle early downs and scoring opportunities. Davis should also have a role but remains a deeper option. Taylor’s absence keeps Sadiq in the TE1 conversation after his 7-105-1 performance last week, while Mitchell’s absence further consolidates the passing game around Wilson.

Terry McLaurin was added to Washington’s injury report Friday with a hamstring issue. He practiced on a limited basis and is officially questionable against Indianapolis.

The injury had not appeared on either of Washington’s first two practice reports.

Related Players: Chigoziem Okonkwo, Stefon Diggs, Antonio Williams, Ben Sinnott, Marcus Mariota

A late-week hamstring addition creates legitimate risk even if McLaurin is active. The 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff will at least provide fantasy managers with an early answer. Diggs would become Washington’s safest WR if McLaurin sits, while Okonkwo and Williams could absorb additional targets.

Rachaad White has been ruled out against the Colts after missing all three practices with a shoulder injury.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen and recently re-signed Austin Ekeler are Washington’s remaining backfield options. Ekeler traveled with the team to London, although it is uncertain whether he will immediately be active.

Croskey-Merritt is the best bet to lead Washington in carries and can be treated as a low-end RB2 or flex play. Ekeler could immediately compete for passing-down work if active, preventing a completely secure workload. Allen remains a deep-league contingency option.

Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels will be OUT on Sunday. Marcus Mariota will start again.

Related Players: Marcus Mariota, Terry McLaurin, Stefon Diggs, Chigoziem Okonkwo, Antonio Williams, Ben Sinnott

Mariota remains a viable QB2 and emergency one-QB streamer against Indianapolis after accounting for three touchdowns in his first start. Daniels practicing all week keeps a Week 5 return within reach, but fantasy managers should not assume he will automatically be cleared next week.
