  • Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ

    Lions' Josh Reynolds: Questionable to return this week

    Reynolds (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

    Reynolds returned to practice Thursday as a limited participant before sitting out again Friday to close out the week. He thus appears no better than 50/50 ahead of Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, and there's also the possibility of added target competition with DJ Chark (ankle) recently designated to return from injured reserve.

  • Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE

    Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Yet to practice this week

    Jeudy (ankle) wasn't spotted during the media availability at Friday's practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Jeudy hasn't practiced at all this week after hurting his ankle early in Week 10 against the Titans. Denver's final Week 11 injury report will provide a specific injury designation, but Jeudy's lack of activity this week suggests that he's unlikely to suit up against the Raiders on Sunday.

  • Chiefs' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Cleared to play Sunday

    Valdes-Scantling (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Chargers after practicing fully Friday.

    With JuJu Smith-Schuster ruled out with a concussion and Mecole Hardman (abdomen/illness) having been placed on IR, Valdes-Scantling is in line to handle plenty of snaps Sunday, while Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore also are candidates to see added opportunities Week 11. Through nine games, Valdes-Scantling has caught 26 of his 43 targets for 441 yards and a TD, and with both Smith-Schuster and Hardman sidelined this weekend, the 6-foot-4, 206-pounder should see enough volume in Kansas City's passing game to merit fantasy consideration.

  • N'Keal Harry TE | SEA

    Bears' N'Keal Harry: Won't play Week 11

    Harry (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Harry did not practice for the second day in a row Friday due to an unspecified illness that is significant enough to keep him sidelined against Atlanta in Week 11. This will mark the wideout's second missed game in as many weeks, as he was ruled a healthy scratch Week 10, and his next chance to play will come versus the Jets on Sunday, Nov. 27. While Harry has slotted into the bottom half of the Bears' wide receiver depth chart this season, his absence should open up more opportunities for Velus Jones, Byron Pringle and Dante Pettis against the Falcons.

  • Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Cleared to play

    Jefferson (toe) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    A toe injury impacted his practice participation but never caused him to miss a session entirely, and Jefferson now takes the field against a Cowboys defense led by CB Trevon Diggs and pass rushers Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence. The 23-year-old is a top-3 play at wide receiver in any matchup, on pace to become the first player with 2,000 receiving yards in a season. With Miami's Tyreek Hill on bye this week, Jefferson needs 89 yards to retake the NFL lead.

  • Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Questionable for Week 11

    Robinson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    The rookie slot receiver felt tightness in his hamstring Wednesday and was held out of practice Thursday, but coach Brian Daboll said Friday that Robinson is "trending in the right direction" to play Sunday. Despite seeing only five targets the past two games -- his first NFL starts -- Robinson has played more than two-thirds of offensive snaps in three straight appearances and seems locked in as a key part of the Giants' low-volume passing game. Darius Slayton also has been a regular for about a month now, while the other WR spot still appears contested between Kenny Golladay, Isaiah Hodgins and (maybe) Marcus Johnson.

  • Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN

    Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Not playing Sunday

    Chase (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh.

    Chase already has missed two contests due to a hip issue, and following the Bengals' Week 10 bye, he'll make it a third this weekend. Having said that, the team opted not to place him on IR, which would have required him to sit out at least four games. Considering Chase was given a recovery timeline of 4-to-6 weeks, there's a chance he'll be able to return Sunday, Nov. 27 in Tennessee. First, though, he'll have to mix into drills next week.

  • Mecole Hardman WR | BUF

    Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Likely to return in 2022

    Coach Andy Reid doesn't think Hardman's abdominal injury is season-ending and described it as short-term Friday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Short-term is relative here, as Hardman already has been placed on injured reserve, but Reid seems optimistic that the fourth-year wide receiver will be back after a minimum four-week IR stint. If Hardman returns at his first available opportunity, he would retake the field Week 15 against Houston on Sunday, Dec. 18.

  • Justin Watson WR | HOU

    Chiefs' Justin Watson: Could have prominent role on SNF

    Watson is in line for an expanded role Sunday against the Chargers, as Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports that both JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and Mecole Hardman (abdomen, IR) will miss the game.

    Kansas City's top four wide receivers will be Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Watson, Kadarius Toney and Skyy Moore. Valdes-Scantling has been battling an illness this week, Moore's an unproven rookie who hasn't made much of an impact on offense, and Toney has been with the team for less than a month. Meanwhile, Watson has built up a rapport with Patrick Mahomes, albeit in a depth role, but he'll have some upside on Sunday night given the lack of healthy alternatives in Kansas City's high-powered passing game.

  • Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Ruled out for Week 11

    Smith-Schuster (concussion protocol) won't play Sunday night against the Chargers, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    With Smith-Schuster out and Mecole Hardman (abdomen) having been placed on IR, look for Marquez Valdes-Scantling (illness) to be busy Sunday, assuming he's active. Meanwhile, Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore also are candidates to see added work, with Toney likely to absorb a good portion of Hardman's previous responsibilities.
