NFL Player News

Shaheed (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Gregg Bell of 933 KJR reports.

With Shaheed out last week, Tory Horton handled a 72 percent route share in Seattle's loss to Chicago. It'll likely be a similar look this week with Horton and Cooper Kupp taking most of the WR snaps alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The big difference will be under center, where Drew Lock is filling in for Sam Darnold (quad) for the second time this season.

Parkinson (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

The veteran tight end managed to get in a limited practice Friday, keeping the door open for him to play after missing last Sunday's game against the Chargers. With Terrance Ferguson (ankle) due back, Parkinson will likely concentrate on blocking duties.

Wright (quad) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Averaging just 1.9 yards per carry, Wright is unlikely to get more than a handful of touches off the bench if he's active this Sunday. Ollie Gordon has been dominating Miami's backfield work.

Burks (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams.

With Burks out and Dyami Brown (calf) injured in Friday's practice, the Commanders could be digging even deeper into their depth at wide receiver after Terry McLaurin suffered a season-ending knee injury two weeks ago. Look for Stefon Diggs and Antonio Williams to be every-down wideouts against Los Angeles.

Nabers (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Philadelphia.

Nabers was held out of drills Thursday due to a knee injury, but his return to all activity one day later lines up with head coach John Harbaugh's assessment of the situation Friday, when he told Matt Citak of the Giants' official site that the wide receiver "practiced fully" and is "full go" for Week 9. As a result, Nabers will look to build upon the massive 36-509-2 line on 51 targets that he's accrued over the last four contests.

With Cam Skattebo (hamstring) doubtful to play Week 9, Singletary is expected to operate as the Giants' lead back Sunday against the Eagles, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Tyrone Tracy (hamstring) is on injured reserve and required to miss at least the next four games, and Najee Harris was recently released, so it'll be Singletary's job Sunday. Practice-squad types Greg Desrosiers and Phil Mafah are in tow as the backups but both have little-to-no experience carrying the ball in the NFL. Volume alone will put Singletary in the fantasy RB2 mix.

Skattebo (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at Philadelphia, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Skattebo was able to manage one limited practice (Friday) this week, and while head coach John Harbaugh told Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post that the Giants are "keeping the door open" for the running back to play in Week 9, his official listing implies it's more likely just ajar. In any case, if Skattebo ends up sitting out Sunday, Devin Singletary likely will serve as New York's lead runner, with Greg Desrosiers and potentially practice-squad members Eric Gray and Phil Mafah in line for work behind him.

Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Smith thus will sit out for the fifth time in six games due to a hamstring injury. Fellow WR Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) also won't play Sunday, leaving Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore to man the Eagles' receiving corps. Smith's next chance to suit up is Sunday, Nov. 22 versus the Steelers.

Hollins (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.

The Patriots would need to activate him from injured reserve by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday to have Hollins available for Sunday's game against the Packers. The team could certainly use him with A.J. Brown (knee) out again, but Hollins never made it back to full practice participation, instead logging limited sessions Wednesday through Friday.

St. Brown (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

After a round of limited practices this week, St. Brown's status for Sunday is in question. It's worth wondering if the Lions could sit the star wideout against a perceived inferior opponent to help his ribs heal. If St. Brown does miss Sunday's game, Jameson Williams and Isaac TeSlaa would play every-down roles at wide receiver, with Sam LaPorta possibly benefiting the most as the player who runs his routes in the same area of the field as St. Brown.
