Panthers said QB Bryce Young did not practice today due to his ankle injury.

Related Players: Andy Dalton

The Panthers offense very rarely misses a beat when Dalton is forced into action and is oftentimes even better. With that said, he's too deep of a play to consider as a streamer in most leagues.

Texans WR Nico Collins (concussion protocol) & WR Christian Kirk (hamstring) are both NOT practicing.

Related Players: Jaylin Noel, Jayden Higgins, Xavier Hutchinson, Braxton Berrios

Nobody outside of the Texans' opponents wants to watch this offense without Nico Collins on the field, so let's hope he can log some practice time before the weekend. If both Collins and Kirk end up missing, either of the rookies (Noel/Higgins) would make for fine desperation WR4s.

Lamar Jackson (hamstring) jogged onto practice field about 20 mins into practice. It’s first practice appearance since straining his hamstring on a Sept. 28.
Mostly just did warmup throws while media was out there. Did run around a little bit.

Still early in the week, but this is fantastic news. If he's playing this weekend, we're starting him everywhere.

Bucs HC Todd Bowles told reporters that RB Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) and WR Chris Godwin (fibula) will be out for Sunday’s game vs the Saints.

The Bucs’ bye is next week.

Related Players: Rachaad White, Sean Tucker, Emeka Egbuka, Sterling Shepard, Tez Johnson

We should assume that all the players' roles from Week 7 should remain intact here in Week 8. That puts White in low-end RB1 consideration and Egbuka as a WR1, while Shepard and Johnson can be considered WR4-types in this big bye week.

Jayden Daniels, who is dealing with a low-grade hamstring strain, will not start on Monday night against the Chiefs, per sources. Marcus Mariota gets his third start for the Commanders.

It's looking like all the injury luck Daniels had as a rookie has run out in Year 2. Hopefully he returns quickly, but in the meantime, Marcus Mariota can stay on waiver wires.

The Dolphins have signed TE Greg Dulcich to the active roster off the practice squad and placed TE Darren Waller on the injured reserve list with a pec strain.

Related Players: Julian Hill, Tanner Conner

This is not likely a spot where we should be targeting the TE room. Hill and Conner combined for five targets and 29 yards last week.

Tyrod Taylor is dealing with a knee injury and is day to day, Glenn said.

Related Players: Justin Fields

Welp, it looks like this could be a Justin Fields week, whether the Jets like it or not. As painful as it might feel, Fields would actually be in a great spot against the Bengals defense and would be an interesting streamer if he was dropped in your league.

Jim Harbaugh said RB Hassan Haskins (hamstring) is doubtful for Thursday night vs. Vikings.

Related players: Kimani Vidal, Nyheim Hines, Amar Johnson

With no Haskins Vidal stands to get a big workload in Week 8, which is a Thursday night game against the Vikings. Hines looks to be the RB2 at this point, but he's played just one snap in each of the last two weeks.

When you’re an NFL kicker who misses two extra points in a one-point loss, your job is not safe. So it’s no surprise that the Giants cut kicker Jude McAtamney today.

McAtamney missed two extra points in the Giants’ 33-32 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, and today he was placed on waivers, according to Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post.

Related players: Graham Gano, Younghoe Koo

The story went on to say the Giants will likely either activate Gano from injured reserve or call up Koo from the practice squad to handle the kicking on Sunday against the Eagles.

Commanders wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel are expected to return to full participation in practice this week.

It was the fourth game McLaurin has missed this season since his injury in Week 3, the story pointed out. Samuel has had little practice time the past three weeks, but Sunday’s game was the first that he’s missed, the story added.
