  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Questionable for Sunday

    Johnston (shin) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Johnston was limited at practice Wednesday and Thursday, with added context regarding his Week 11 status slated to arrive via his official participation level Friday. If Johnston is limited or out Sunday, Tre' Harris likely would see added snaps alongside Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen.

  • Dolphins' Dee Eskridge: Questionable after limited practice

    Eskridge (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Eskridge was limited in all three of Miami's practices, marking clear progress after he didn't practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out against the Bills in Week 10. If Eskridge suits up Sunday in Madrid, his contributions would likely come primarily on special teams.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Won't play this week

    Godwin (fibula) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Godwin and Bucky Irving both returned to limited practice participation this week, following lengthy absences, potentially setting up returns to game action in Week 12 or 13. Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles didn't comment on expectations for the future, merely telling reporters Friday that Godwin and Irving won't play this week.

  • Rashod Bateman WR | BAL

    Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Not practicing yet

    Bateman (ankle) wasn't spotted at practice Friday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

    Bateman, who also didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, thus is trending toward not being available Sunday against the Browns. If that ends up being the case, DeAndre Hopkins and Tylan Wallace would likely see added WR snaps alongside Zay Flowers this weekend.

  • Darius Slayton WR | NYG

    Giants' Darius Slayton: Still not practicing

    Slayton (hamstring) won't practice Friday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    With three straight DNPs this week, Slayton is trending toward missing Sunday's game against the Packers, an outcome that could be confirmed later Friday when the Giants post their final Week 11 injury report. If Slayton is sidelined this weekend, Gunner Olszewski, Isaiah Hodgins and current practice-squad member Ray-Ray McCloud would figure to see added snaps alongside WR Wan'Dale Robinson.

  • Khalil Shakir WR | BUF

    Bills' Khalil Shakir: Trending in right direction

    Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Shakir (ankle/ribs) "is heading in the right direction and should be in a good spot" for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Shakir was limited at practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but the wide receiver is trending in the right direction ahead of Week 11 action, unlike tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring), who won't play this weekend. Friday's final injury report will reveal whether Shakir is handed an injury designation or is fully cleared to face Tampa Bay.

  • Patriots' Kyle Williams: Held without a catch Thursday

    Williams, who was on the field for 45 of a possible 67 snaps on offense in Thursday's 27-14 win over the Jets, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, did not record a catch in the contest while being targeted three times.

    Williams continued to see added playing time with fellow WR Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) inactive for the second straight game, but the rookie pass catcher didn't make a statistical impact versus the Jets after having caught one of his two targets for a 72-yard touchdown in this past Sunday's win over the Buccaneers. Looking ahead, Williams remains a speculative fantasy option while working in a New England wide receiver corps that also includes Stefon Diggs, Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas, who combined for 15 catches Thursday.

  • Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Three catches versus Jets

    Douglas caught all three of his targets for 36 yards and carried once for minus-5 yards in Thursday's 27-14 win over the Jets.

    With Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) inactive for the second straight contest, Douglas, who logged 19 snaps Thursday, was once again outsnapped by fellow WRs Mack Hollins (57), Stefon Diggs (46) and Kyle Williams (45), per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. In 11 games, Douglas has recorded a receiving line of 23 catches (on 35 targets) for 332 yards and three TDs, a rate of production (while working in an offense that spreads the ball around) that has yielded modest fantasy value thus far.

  • Jets' John Metchie: First TD as member of Jets

    Metchie brought in all three targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in the Jets' 27-14 loss to the Patriots on Thursday night.

    Metchie led the Jets in receiving yards and also recorded his first touchdown as a member of the team, logging a 22-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter on a play where he got wide open down the left side of the field. His yardage total was his highest since a Christmas Day loss to the Ravens last season while still with the Texans, and the fourth-year pro could have an expanded role down the stretch due to Garrett Wilson's current IR stint due to a knee injury.

  • Jets' Adonai Mitchell: One catch in Jets debut

    Mitchell secured one of six targets for 10 yards in the Jets' 27-14 loss to the Patriots on Thursday night.

    Mitchell surprisingly led the Jets in targets in his team debut, although he and Justin Fields clearly had trouble connecting. Nevertheless, with Garrett Wilson (IR, knee) now sidelined for at least three more games, Mitchell should have plenty of opportunities to build a rapport with whoever is under center between Fields and Tyrod Taylor for New York over the next several contests.
