Jets place WR Garrett Wilson on IR

Jets placed WR Garrett Wilson on injured reserve, and he now will be out a minimum of four games.

Fantasy Impact:

Unless you're in a 16-team league or deeper, we would suggest fading the Jets wide receiver room wherever possible. Tight end Mason Taylor could legitimately end up being the No. 1 pass-catcher on Thursday Night Football, which makes him a TE streamer candidate.

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy Limited, RB Isiah Pacheco DNP on Thursday

Chiefs

yesterday · 4:19 PM EST

George Karlaftis and Xavier Worthy were limited in practice today.

Isiah Pacheco did not practice.

Fantasy Impact:

With Pacheco set to miss more time, Hunt should be considered a fringe RB2/3, while Smith is more of a desperation RB4.

While Rice would still sit in WR1 territory whether or not Worthy plays, Brown would elevate into more of a boom/bust WR4 role.

Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy upgraded to full participant, on track for Week 11

Vikings upgraded JJ McCarthy from limited practice on Wednesday to full practice today, putting him on track to start Sunday.

Related Players: Max Brosmer, John Wolford

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like McCarthy should get the start here in a good matchup against the Bears defense. Consider him a streaming option and put him in top-15 consideration with a nice rushing floor.
