Dylan Sampson returns to practice field; Quinshon Judkins remains sidelined during open drills

Oct 15, 2026

The Browns got multiple players back at practice today, including Maliek Collins, Tytus Howard, Carsen Ryan and Dylan Sampson.

Still not practicing: Derek Barnett, Kalia Davis, Mason Graham, Mike Hall, Teven Jenkins, Quinshon Judkins, Carson Schwesinger.

Related Players: Jaleel McLaughlin, Audric Estime

Fantasy Impact:

Sampson is worth a speculative bench addition where available. If he is activated and Judkins misses Sunday, Sampson would have a path to meaningful work, although his first game back could still involve a committee. McLaughlin and/or Estime would be quite a stretch to provide bankable fantasy production.

Related Players: Rachaad White, Jeremy McNichols, Jayden Daniels

Fantasy Impact:

The Monday kickoff makes a backup plan especially important for Croskey-Merritt’s managers. If he misses the game, White would have a chance to move from a fringe FLEX option into RB2 consideration if he inherits the early-down and goal-line work, while Ekeler could become a PPR FLEX option if available

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson absent again Thursday with ankle injury

A few guys still trickling out on practice field, but no sign of QB Lamar Jackson. Minter has consistently said that Jackson wouldn’t necessarily need to practice to play Sunday. But it’s been 10 days now since he’s been on field. Seems pretty obvious where this is headed.

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson’s managers should secure a replacement now. Huntley would be a QB2 option in superflex leagues if he makes another start, with his rushing ability providing a path to useful production. Flowers remains the strongest Baltimore receiving play and a WR2 with Huntley; Jackson’s return would restore more upside. Henry can still be considered an RB1 regardless of starter.

Jalen Hurts ruled out against Panthers; Tanner McKee set to start

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is out for Sunday due to a superficial blood clot. It is safe to say that Jalen Hurts is out until his medical situation is resolved. Until then, it's Tanner McKee moving forward.

Fantasy Impact:

McKee becomes an emergency QB2 option in superflex leagues, while managers replacing Hurts in one-quarterback formats should look elsewhere first. Philadelphia’s pass catchers take a downgrade: Goedert becomes a fringe TE1, and Wicks is a volatile WR3/FLEX if Smith remains out.
