Sources: The Steelers plan to give Russell Wilson first-team reps in practice this week, putting him in line to make his season debut.

Russ will get the start against the Jets on Sunday night it looks like. Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Fields, but with Wilson’s calf now fully healed it looks like the team is going to make a change. This could mean a better news for the Pittsburgh WRs as Wilson should throw the ball more vs. Fields escaping the pocket and running.

Mike Tomlin says that Russell Wilson will be active on Sunday as the backup.

Justin Fields will start.

Maybe not the best outcome for Steelers pass-catchers, but another Fields start means he is streamable again for managers in need. Consider him a low-end QB1 against the Raiders due to his rushing ability.

Devin Singletary still dealing with a groin problem. Coach Brian Daboll said “we’ll see” about his starting running back.

Could be another Tyrone Tracy game.

While Eric Gray was technically the first running back to touch the ball last week, he would fumble the ball on the 1-yard line later in the same drive and spend the rest of the game firmly in the doghouse. Tracy took his opportunity and ran for 129 yards, so you have to figure he'll get the chance to repeat his performance if Singletary is out. The Bengals defense has been flat all year, so Tracy profiles as an RB2 with upside for more.

Malik Nabers is out Sunday, per Daboll.

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Theo Johnson

Stinks to see the rookie miss more time, but he should be on track to continue his impressive showing(s) in Week 7. In the meantime, both Robinson and Slayton should be in fantasy consideration without many other options to catch the ball in New York.

For the first time in over a month, Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) was listed as a full participant in practice.

RB Jaylen Warren (knee) returned to practice on a limited basis.

With so much of the fantasy value from the position riding on Fields' legs, it's hard to envision many great performances from Wilson in this offense. If he suits up, he can be left on waiver wires until we see more out of him.

Russell Wilson is getting closer to being ready to play.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said in his Tuesday press conference that Wilson will be a full participant in practice on Wednesday. This marks a shift from Wilson’s previous level of on-field work.

Tomlin said Wilson can now work without restrictions and the team plans to do just that with Wilson. The story said, however, it doesn’t mean Wilson is ready to come in and be the starter, as Fields is still slated to take first-team practice snaps.

GIANTS WEEK 5 GAME STATUSES

Out:
▪️ WR Malik Nabers (Concussion)

Doubtful:
▪️ RB Devin Singletary (Groin)

Questionable:
▪️ LB Matt Adams* (Quad)
▪️ CB Adoree’ Jackson (Calf)

Related Players: Tyrone Tracy, Eric Gray, Dante Miller

It's anyone's guess what the pecking order would be in this backfield without Singletary, but Tracy could be in for some extra receiving usage regardless, with Malik Nabers officially Out for Week 5. The offense might look like a mess this week, but Tracy might end up being an interesting Flex play during the first round of Byes.

Malik Nabers is still in concussion protocol and is OUT for Sunday for the Giants at Seahawks , per Brian Daboll.

This is a brutal loss to the offense in what has been a fantastic rookie season for Nabers. The whole offense is essentially a stay-away, though Robinson should continue to be targeted in PPR leagues, but more of a deep WR3 in other formats.

The Chiefs place WR Rashee Rice on IR as he awaits more info; Giants WR Malik Nabers faces an uphill battle this week; Colts RB Jonathan Taylor (high-ankle) likely misses time.

Rapoport continues that "it's mild, though he is likely to miss some time," and it would "be a surprise" if we see him suit up in Week 5. Bad news ahead of a great matchup against this Jaguars team that seems to be circling the drain already. Fire Sermon up as a fringe RB2/3 if Taylor is forced to sit.

Daboll said RB Devin Singletary (groin) won’t practice again. Sounds like Dru Phillips (calf) and Adoree’ Jackson (calf) will be limited today.

Related Players: Tyrone Tracy, Eric Gray, Dante Miller

It's anyone's guess what the pecking order would be in this backfield without Singletary, but Tracy could be in for some extra receiving usage regardless, with Malik Nabers trending toward missing Week 5. The offense might look like a mess this week, but Tracy might end up being an interesting Flex play during the first round of Byes.
