Giants WRs Malik Nabers (back) and Darius Slayton (groin) are off the injury report and good to go Sunday vs. the #Cowboys.

WR Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) is questionable. LT Andrew Thomas (foot) is doubtful.

Nabers might get 20 targets if Robinson misses this game. Regardless, he's the only receiver we should be seriously considering in most league formats.

Brian Daboll’s pre-practice Giants injury updates for today, Thursday:

LT Andrew Thomas (foot) will practice and do team reps

WR Malik Nabers (back) will be full after being limited yesterday

DL Dexter Lawrence (paternity) is back at practice after being gone Wednesday for the birth of his first child

WR Wan’Dale Robinson (ankle) is back after missing Wednesday

LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf) will not practice today after aggravating an injury yesterday

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt

Nabers had some limited practices last week and still earned 12 targets in the game, so we shouldn't be too worried here. Keep considering him a WR1 unless something changes.

Andrew Thomas (foot) won't practice Wednesday. That is part of the plan, per Brian Daboll. He will practice Thursday and Friday.

Malik Nabers (back) will be limited.

Dexter Lawrence will not be at practice Wednesday. His wife had their first child this week.

Brian Daboll says Giants will “back down on Malik” Nabers today in practice because his back is a “little tight” but says Nabers will be OK for Sunday

LT Andrew Thomas will practice today and “do some team stuff” after not practicing yesterday

Nabers has a very real chance to lead all 2025 NFL wide receivers in target share; it's just a matter of how efficient those looks will be. If he's on the field, he's an automatic must-start, and we should expect a WR1 outcome against the Commanders.

Giants WR Malik Nabers, who was limited at times in camp with a toe issue, isn't on the initial injury report, putting him on track to play Sunday vs. Washington.

LT Andrew Thomas (foot) was limited.

Titans' first regular season unofficial depth chart for offense, which includes rookie WR Elic Ayomanor ahead of vet Van Jefferson.

Those in dynasty leagues should be familiar with Ayomanor who was on the radar as a later-round sleeper this past spring in dynasty drafts. It looks like Ayomanor is the team's third WR behind Ridley and Lockett. Perhaps the bigger question will be how QB Ward plays this season, but Ayomanor can officially be on the fantasy radar even in typical leagues.

OC Nick Holz: Feels like RB Tony Pollard is in a good place heading into the season, but we'll have to get other backs in the mix, whether it's Julius Chestnut or Kalel Mullings.

Related players: Tyjae Spears

Spears is dealing with an injury and is on IR, missing the first four games of the season. While Pollard should get a nice workload, the team will get other backs involved like Chestnut and Mullings. Those two, however, aren't exactly household names which is why Pollard should be a nice start in fantasy lineups. Last year when Spears was out, Pollard's touches went from 16.4 per game to 24.2, so owners should expect an uptick at least until Spears is back.

Sources: Titans RB Tyjae Spears, who suffered a high ankle sprain earlier this month and was spotted in a walking boot this weekend, is being placed on injured reserve.

Related players: Tony Pollard, Julius Chestnut, Kalel Mullings

Spears will now miss the first four games of the season. It should mean more touches for Pollard. As our own John Paulsen points out, Pollard’s workload increased from 16.4 touches per game with Spears to 24.2 touches in the five games that Spears missed last season.

Sources: The Lions are releasing QB Hendon Hooker.

Related players: Jared Goff, Kyle Allen

Allen will now be the backup to Goff. The Lions were hoping Hooker would take over the QB2 duties, but it wasn't a good sign when Hooker played behind Allen in the final preseason game. Hooker is a former third round pick.

The Commanders and Terry McLaurin have agreed to a 3-year contract extension, source confirms.

Related players: Deebo Samuel, Noah Brown, K.J. Osborn, Luke McCaffrey, Jayden Daniels

The deal is said to be a 3-year extension worth over $96M, according to other sources. Daniels will get his top target back before Week 1 and pushes the rest of the team's WRs down the depth chart, including Samuel who now looks to be the WR2. McLaurin finally delivered a true breakout season - 82 catches, 1,096 yards, and 13 touchdowns - finishing as the WR6 last season.
