Lamar Jackson tell teammates he expects to return later this season.

Nov 08, 2026

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson has told teammates that he expected to return at some point later this season.

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson injured his thumb on his first play against the Bills last week and there was concern he would be done for the season. He was placed on injured reserve but has not yet been officially ruled out for the season. With a 6-9 week timeline, Jackson could be back by early January and a potential playoff run. For now, the Ravens will ride with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback. Baltimore fell to 4-5 after their 33-10 loss to the Jaguars on Thursday and are 1.5 games out of a wild card spot heading into a Monday Night meeting in Week 10 with the Chargers.

Broncos activate Pat Bryant from injured reserve

The Broncos activated WR Pat Bryant from injured reserve Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Bryant returns from a Week 4 ankle injury and has a chance to gain some traction in the passing attack. Jaylen Waddle is WR43 in PPR points per game and Courtland Sutton is WR85. For the record, Bryant is WR53 and recorded at least 40 receiving yards in three of his four games and caught a touchdown pass in Week 3. Bryant is WR66 on our PPR board this week against the Panthers but is worth keeping an eye on.

49ers activate Demarcus Robinson from injured reserve, place Christian Kirk on list

The 49ers activated WR Demarcus Robinson from injured reserve and placed Christian Kirk on IR with a meniscus injury.

Fantasy Impact:

Robinson could be the leader of the pack this week among wide receivers for the 49ers, as Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel are already out for Sunday against the Raiders. Robinson just cracks the top 50 wide receivers this week in what should be a very favorable matchup for the 49ers' offense.

As for Kirk, he had just come off injured reserve a couple of weeks ago but suffered a meniscus injury on Thursday. He is eligible to return December 6 against the Giants but will be tough to trust in fantasy heading into the fantasy playoffs, as the other receivers should be healthy by then and the 49ers could also get DeZhaun Stribling back around that time as well.
