Team news: Los Angeles Chargers | Page 6

Browns rule out Grant Delpit, Ethan Pocic, Nick Chubb, Ronnie Hickman, Nyheim Hines, James Hudson III.

Denzel Ward, Maurice Hurst II, Jordan Hicks, Mohamoud Diabate listed as questionable.

David Njoku will play Sunday vs. Eagles.

Related Players: Jordan Akins, Jerome Ford, D'Onta Foreman, Pierre Strong Jr.

Hopefully Njoku can add a little boost to this floundering offense, and should slide right back into low-end TE1 range for fantasy.

As for the running back room, Ford likely holds onto the RB1 role for one more week, but the team has made it clear that they'd like to rotate him. This makes him a questionable call as your team's RB2, but at the very least, he provides a floor.

Mike Tomlin said that Jaylen Warren was a full participant today and is “on the upswing.”

The coach feels “optimistic about his inclusion” and will list the RB as questionable.

Related Players: Najee Harris

If Warren is available, it will come at a massive detriment to Harris' fantasy outlook, as the latter as looked like his typical, inefficient self. Warren could be a tough click in his first week back, but he also lowers Harris to an RB3 if they both play.

Zac: Chase Brown and Zack Moss good to go.
Sheldon Rankins, too.

Related Players: Trayveon Williams

A bit of a surprise, as Moss' ankle injury looked pretty nasty. From a fantasy perspective, it would have been nice to have just one of them on the field in Week 6, but no matter, they are both absolutely in play as RB2s in a Bengals offense that has looked almost unstoppable.

Chase Brown (quad) is practicing on Friday.

Related Players: Zack Moss, Trayveon Williams

Seems like the limited practice yesterday wasn't an indication of Brown's availability for Week 6. Zack Moss is still undecided though, which makes each of their projections difficult to assume quite yet. We'll keep an eye on the situation, but if Moss is out, Brown makes for a slam-dunk play this weekend.

The Steelers will be without RB Jaylen Warren (ankle) on Sunday night against the Cowboys. Rookie Aaron Shampklin will be the complement to Najee Harris in the Pittsburgh backfield.

Shampklin, a 2022 UDFA rookie out of Harvard, has one career carry, which came in Week 4. It's a good bet that Najee Harris receives nearly the entire workload with Cordarrelle Patterson also dealing with an injury. Harris is a locked in RB2.

Browns players who returned to practice: Nick Chubb, David Njoku, Nyheim Hines, Pierre Strong Jr., Michael Dunn

Related Players: Jordan Akins

Akins performed well enough during Njoku's absence but not enough to get him on to fantasy radars. If Njoku plays in Week 5, he should re-take his spot in the lower-end TE1 range.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (ankle) is expected to start Sunday against the Chiefs.

Herbert started Week 3 but seemed to re-aggravate the injury, leading to Taylor Heinicke entering the game. Herbert went through the week without any setbacks. Certainly there’s some caution after last week but Herbert does sound like he’s in a better position than he was entering last week’s game. Proceed with caution and consider another option if you have one, just in case.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) is out for Sunday vs. Colts.

QB Russell Wilson (calf) is questionable again.

Related Players: Najee Harris, Cordarrelle Patterson

While Harris gets an obvious boost for Week 4, don't ignore Patterson, who Arthur Smith loves to utilize. Harris is still capped as an RB2, but Patterson is a sneaky play as someone who could pop up in this situation for 10-15 opportunities.

Bears WR Keenan Allen (heel) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game with the Rams, though he practiced in full today. Positive steps towards a return.

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze, DeAndre Carter

Allen came in and led them team in target share in Week 1, but Caleb Williams had a rough day at the office in his NFL premiere. Allen should regain that role as a low-aDOT target hog who is particularly valuable in PPR leagues as a WR3 with the upside for more.

Good news for the #Bears: Veteran WR Keenan Allen, who has missed the last couple games with a heel injury, is back at practice today on a limited basis. He's tracking to return this week if all goes well.
