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.

Aaron Rodgers has a sprained ankle but “should be” good to play next Monday night vs. the Bills.

Obviously "should be" are the key words. The game being on Monday night could complicate things for owners if Rodgers ends up being a game-time call. Reports say the Jets don't seem too concerned about his injury but owners may want to have a backup plan if they're counting on Rodgers in Week 6.

The Steelers’ first loss of the season apparently won’t be prompting a quarterback change, from Justin Fields back to Russell Wilson, who technically remains QB1.

Asked on Tuesday whether he’s preparing Fields to start the Week 5 Sunday night home game against the Cowboys, coach Mike Tomlin said, “Yes I am,” via Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com.

Other reports today have said Tomlin told reporters that Wilson will have a “strong work day” on Tuesday, and that Wilson’s practice participation will increase. Wilson, per Tomlin, likely will have a “live pocket,” according to the story.

Robert Saleh said in a press conference. “[Breece Hall] still has plenty of juice. His GPS numbers are fine. Just chalk it up to a bad day. Everyone has them and we’ll expect him to bounce back.”

Hall had four yards on 10 carries and was stuffed twice at the goal line in Week 4. Hall had 170 yards on 46 carries in the first three weeks. As the story said, Allen has shown more burst than Hall in the opening weeks of the season, but Hall has remained the lead back. If the offense continues to sputter, that’s one change the Jets will likely have to consider as they look for a way to push things in a better direction, the story suggested. If Allen is still on your wire at this point, you may want to consider picking him up.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin isn’t making any pronouncements about the long-term starter at quarterback, but he also isn’t doing anything to suggest it won’t be Justin Fields.

“As we walk in the building tomorrow, I want Fields singularly focused on starting for us,” Tomlin said.

Fields moved into the starting role when Wilson hurt his calf ahead of the season opener and he’s presided over three straight wins for the Steelers, the story said. On Tuesday, Tomlin said Wilson is set for another limited practice on Wednesday. The story pointed out Tomlin has repeatedly said that the team could consider other options when Wilson’s participation level changes. It seems as long as Fields is the starter and they keep winning, there isn't much need to make a change.

There won’t be any suspense about wide receiver Cooper Kupp’s status this week.

Rams head coach Sean McVay told reporters on Monday that Kupp has been ruled out for the team’s Week 4 game against the Bears.

Kupp injured his ankle in Week 2. The story said the early decision to rule him out suggests he’ll be off the practice field again this week, but the team did not put Kupp on injured reserve so it would seem they expect him to play by Week 7 — they have a bye in Week Six — at the latest. Atwell led the way with a 4-93-0 line with Robinson going for 1-32-0. Whittington added a line of 3-28-0 and Johnson had 3-20-0. With Puka Nacua also out for at least two more weeks, the Rams WR situation seems a bit tricky for fantasy owners.

Rams star WR Cooper Kupp suffered a high-ankle sprain in LA’s loss on Sunday, and he’ll spend the next week or so in a cast helping the swelling calm down, sources said.

The team did not place him on Injured Reserve, as there is still a chance he’s ready within four weeks.

A little bit of good news bad news here, as Kupp may not miss more than four games, but it still seems like it will be significant time. As it stands, Robinson is the most experienced option and will be the most likely option to lead the team in routes, with Johnson closely behind.

If you missed out on them through waiver runs and still want a piece of this offense, Whittington is the wild card, and should be targeted in deeper leagues.

Giants are signing veteran kicker Greg Joseph to their active roster from the Detroit Lions practice squad.

Gano was injured in Week 2 against the Commanders. The Lions had recently signed Joseph to the practice squad to push Jake Bates.

It looks like Justin Fields will be at quarterback for the Steelers again this week.

Fields has started both games for the 2-0 team and head coach Mike Tomlin said in a Tuesday press conference that the team is preparing to start him against the Chargers this Sunday as well.

Related players: Russell Wilson

Wilson was set to start before a calf injury and Tomlin said that Wilson is not going to fully participate when the team resumes its practice schedule on Wednesday. Tomlin added that the team won’t give any consideration to changing quarterbacks until that changes and Wilson is able to do quality work with the team.
