Brian Robinson ruled out against Bengals

Nov 06, 2026

The Falcons have ruled out Brian Robinson (hamstring) for Sunday’s game against Cincinnati after he remained limited throughout the practice week. Zachariah Branch (hamstring) is also out.

Fantasy Impact:

Bijan remains an elite RB1 against Cincinnati, with Brian’s absence removing another competitor for backfield touches. Herbert remains a backup stash rather than a dependable standalone FLEX. Branch’s absence leaves additional receiving opportunities for Dotson and Zaccheaus, but both remain deeper-league options behind London and Pitts. London belongs in WR1 lineups, while Pitts remains a lower-end TE1.

Garrett Wilson remains absent Thursday while in concussion protocol

No sign of Garrett Wilson, who is in concussion protocol. Not the best of signs.

Harrison Phillips (ankle) is working in the rehab area.

Fantasy Impact:

Wilson managers should prepare another starter. If he misses Kansas City, Mitchell would move into WR3/FLEX consideration, with Cooper also becoming a viable deeper-league FLEX. Taylor could receive additional targets, although sharing tight end work with Sadiq keeps him in the TE2 streaming range. Smith would remain a lower-end Superflex option without his top receiver.

Kyler Murray ruled out Monday; Carson Wentz confirmed as starter

Vikings

yesterday · 2:49 PM EST

Kevin O’Connell ruled Kyler Murray out against Buffalo with a hamstring strain and described him as week-to-week. Carson Wentz will start Monday night, with Max Brosmer serving as the backup.

Fantasy Impact:

Wentz is now a confirmed QB2 option for Superflex managers, including those replacing Murray. Jefferson remains a WR1, Addison a WR3/FLEX, and Hockenson a lower-end TE1. Minnesota’s secondary receivers remain difficult to trust. Murray can stay on benches where roster space allows, but managers should prepare for the possibility that his absence extends beyond one game.

John Lynch says Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel unlikely to play Sunday

GM John Lynch on KNBR: It's likely Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel will not be available Sunday against the Raiders.

But the 49ers are getting back Demarcus Robinson and KhaDarel Hodge -- two players who were among the six active wide receivers for Week 1.

Fantasy Impact:

Managers should plan to replace both receivers. Kittle remains a high-end TE1 with a strong opportunity to lead this passing game. Watkins has a deeper-league FLEX case, while Kirk, Cooks, and Cowing remain less dependable options. Robinson is worth monitoring if activated from injured reserve, but his return would spread opportunities across an already uncertain receiver rotation. Purdy remains a QB1 option against Las Vegas.
