Thomas wasn't targeted in Thursday night's 33-10 win over the Ravens.

Thomas played just 19 of 56 offensive snaps and ran only 11 routes on Trevor Lawrence's 26 dropbacks. It's become clear that Thomas is no longer a big part of the offense and needs an injury ahead of him or a trade out of Jacksonville to become relevant in season-long fantasy. He has just one catch for a 12-yard touchdown over his last four games.

In a statement posted to social media on Friday, Henderson -- who hasn't practiced since last Wednesday -- noted that he recently experienced "an unexpected and unusual medical emergency involving a series of unexplained neurological symptoms," Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

Henderson, who was unavailable for New England's Week 8 win over Miami, indicated that tests have "come back positive and reassuring," adding "I will continue working closely with specialists and physical therapists to focus on my recovery, as these symptoms have affected my strength, coordination, and some of my physical functions." The running back noted that for now he is "committed to doing everything necessary to return to full health" and that his "health and long-term well-being" remain his foremost priorities." In six games this season, while working in a Patriots backfield that also includes Rhamondre Stevenson, Corey Kiner and Lan Larison, Henderson has carried 52 times for 203 yards a touchdown, while adding five receptions for 45 yards.

Egbuka (foot) has been "full go" at practice and doesn't appear to have had any setbacks ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Bears, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

With Egbuka having logged a full practice Thursday and seemingly repeating that Friday morning, he appears ready to return from a two-game absence. He should handle his usual workload in a matchup between two of the NFC's hottest teams Sunday night.

The Ravens acquired Brissett and a 2027 fifth-round pick from the Cardinals on Friday in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 seventh-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Additionally, the Cardinals are paying about half of Brissett's remaining 2026 salary to facilitate the deal. The move gives Baltimore a veteran quarterback after both Lamar Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) suffered long-term injuries last Sunday against Buffalo. Brissett had recently fallen to the Cardinals' No. 3 quarterback after he was benched in Week 8 against Dallas. He should immediately claim the QB1 spot for the Ravens after undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano has looked overmatched in his nearly two full games of action under center.

Wilson (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

With Wilson set to miss the contest, the Jets will be without their top wide receiver as he remains in concussion protocol. His absence leaves targets available to Adonai Mitchell and Omar Cooper, who get significant boosts to their respective fantasy stocks. Isaiah Williams figures to handle WR3 duties.

Wright (quadriceps) will practice Friday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Averaging a miserable 1.9 yards per carry this season, Wright has no fantasy appeal other than being Ollie Gordon's ineffective backup.

Head coach Brian Schottenheimer hopes that Ferguson (ankle) will be "back on the field" Friday, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Ferguson did not get any work in Wednesday or Thursday due to the ankle injury he sustained in Week 8, but it appears there is a chance he could practice in some capacity Friday. The Cowboys will reveal his official status for Week 9 at some point following the conclusion of Friday's session.

Pickens (hamstring) "will be a little bit limited" Friday, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer is "hopeful" he will play Sunday against the Colts, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Pickens was limited at practice both Wednesday and Thursday due to a hamstring issue, and it appears he will find himself in a similar spot at Friday's practice. The Cowboys will provide another update on his status after the latest session comes to a close.

"It does not seem" that Skattebo (hamstring) will play Sunday against the Eagles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

A hamstring injury sustained prior to the Giants' Week 8 bye prevented Skattebo from practicing both Wednesday and Thursday, and although he will have one more chance to get some work in before game designations are determined, it appears the injury will keep him off the field for Week 9.

Hall (quadriceps) "has been medically cleared" and is expected to play Sunday against the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Hall has not taken the field since sustaining a quad injury in Week 3, but he practiced fully Thursday and appears primed to return to action Sunday. Braelon Allen has shined in Hall's absence, but Hall entered the season as the starter, so both figure to be involved to some degree in Week 9.
