Brandon Aiyuk files for reinstatement, plans to report Friday

Nov 04, 2026

Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has turned in paperwork to be reinstated, per his agent Drew Rosenhaus. Aiyuk, who currently is on San Francisco’s Reserve/Left Squad list, will be reporting to the 49ers’ training facility Friday afternoon, per Drew Rosenhaus. “Brandon is healthy and ready to get back on the field,” Rosenhaus said.

Fantasy Impact:

Aiyuk is a speculative bench stash for managers with room to wait. His eventual team, playing eligibility, and workload remain unsettled, so he should stay out of lineups for now.

Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. drawing trade interest

NLF on ESPN on X

yesterday · 7:22 PM EST

"Brian Thomas Jr. has been the area of interest for a lot of other teams."

Fantasy Impact:

For some reason, the Jags don't seem open to trading BTJ, but the team has pretty much phased him out. With so many teams in need of receiver, the Jags could likely get something valuable in return for him. Over the team's last three games, BTJ has had just 7 targets with one catch - a 12-yard TD catch this past week against the Colts. The Jaguars may just want to hold on to him in case of injuries as they look to be a team that can make a deep playoff run. Fantasy owners should at least hold on to him leading up to the trade deadline. In some leagues, he's even on waiver wires, and may be worth grabbing just in case he gets moved to a better situation.

Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten (ankle, foot) remains out of practice

Pro Football Talk

yesterday · 5:11 PM EST

The Jaguars listed a key offensive player as out of practice for the second straight day on Tuesday.

Running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle, foot) remained on the sideline after being listed as out on the team’s estimated practice report on Monday. Tuten had 16 carries for 104 yards and a touchdown along with two catches for 55 yards and a score, so his presence would be significant against the Ravens.

Related players: Chris Rodriguez, LeQuint Allen, Ameer Abdullah

Fantasy Impact:

Tuten will have another day to get back on the practice field, but if he can't it looks like Rodriguez could take over as the RB1 on a short week against the Ravens. Keep in mind, Rodriguez was listed as limited himself and is dealing with a hand injury.

Ravens will start QB Joe Fagnano

Jesse Minter confirms that QB Joe Fagnano will start for the Ravens Thursday night vs. the Jaguars.

Related players: Tyler Huntley

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens are down to their QB3 after Lamar Jackson went out with a thumb injury and Huntley with turf toe. Reports are saying Huntley will be placed on IR, so unless the Ravens make a move they could be riding with Fagnano - at least for the short term. To make it worse, it's a tough matchup for the Ravens as they take on the Jags on a short week.
