Lamar Jackson out; Tyler Huntley to start with Zay Flowers questionable

Oct 09, 2026

Lamar Jackson (ankle) is out for Sunday night’s game in Atlanta, and Tyler Huntley will start. Zay Flowers (foot) is questionable after practicing without a full session this week.

Related Players: Rashod Bateman, Ja’Kobi Lane, Devontez Walker, Mark Andrews, Derrick Henry, Justice Hill

Fantasy Impact:

Huntley is a superflex replacement whose rushing offers a usable floor. Flowers would remain a WR2 option if active, but managers need a Sunday-night or Monday fallback. If Flowers also misses, Andrews becomes Baltimore’s most appealing receiving option. Bateman would enter deeper-league FLEX consideration, while Lane and Walker remain speculative. Henry remains startable despite the offense’s reduced scoring ceiling.

Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison questionable against New Orleans

Justin Jefferson (ankle) and Jordan Addison (hamstring) are questionable for Sunday after limited practices Friday. Kevin O’Connell said the team will evaluate both before deciding whether to elevate Odell Beckham Jr. from the practice squad.

Fantasy Impact:

Start Jefferson if cleared; Addison would have WR2 appeal and additional upside if Jefferson sits. Hockenson remains a strong TE1 and could become the offense’s primary receiving option if both WRs miss. Jennings would move into deeper-league FLEX consideration, with Felton and Price more speculative. Beckham would need an elevation and a defined role before becoming a starting option. Murray’s ceiling drops substantially if both receivers are unavailable.

Quentin Johnston out; Ladd McConkey questionable against Denver

Quentin Johnston (chest) and Brenen Thompson (quad) are out Sunday. Ladd McConkey (foot) is questionable after missing all three practices. The Chargers also ruled out Joe Alt and Trevor Penning and placed Rashawn Slater on injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

Harris becomes a viable WR3/FLEX and could reach WR2 volume if McConkey also sits. Gadsden gains streaming appeal, while Davis and Valdes-Scantling remain deeper-league options. Herbert’s missing receivers and depleted protection make him difficult to trust outside Superflex leagues. Hampton could receive more touches, but the offensive line injuries limit how confidently managers can chase that volume.

Kyle Monangai ruled out; D’Andre Swift cleared for Sunday

Kyle Monangai is out against Green Bay with a toe injury. Ben Johnson described him as week-to-week and said he is seeing a specialist. D’Andre Swift practiced fully Friday and has no injury designation.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Tyson Bagent

Fantasy Impact:

Swift now has RB1 upside with Monangai’s carries available and his own injuries cleared. Roschon moves into the backup role and becomes a worthwhile deep-league pickup, though Swift remains the clear starting choice. Keep Monangai rostered; the week-to-week assessment leaves his return date uncertain.
