Zaccheaus (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bengals, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

With Luther Burden (concussion) out, Zaccheaus should see the bulk of the WR3 snaps behind Rome Odunze and DJ Moore. The matchup is good, but Zaccheaus hasn't seen enough target volume to warrant fantasy lineup consideration outside of daily fantasy contests.

Johnson (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

Johnson likely sustained this groin injury during Friday's practice, as he popped up on the injury report as a limited participant after not being featured Wednesday or Thursday. The 29-year-old is an integral part of Buffalo's defense, recording 25 total tackles and two passes defended over six appearances this season. If he's sidelined for the Week 9 matchup, Cam Lewis is likely to operate as Buffalo's top slot corner.

Pacheco (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills after not practicing this week.

With the Chiefs on bye Week 10, Pacheco's next chance to see game action will arrive Sunday, Nov. 16 against the Broncos. In Pacheco's absence this weekend, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com indicates that Kareem Hunt is in line to start Sunday's contest, with Brashard Smith and Elijah Mitchell in line to back him up, per ESPN.com.

Kmet (back) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Kmet will return from a one-game absence and likely continue rotating with rookie Colston Loveland, who caught three passes for 38 yards in the loss to Baltimore last week. A favorable matchup with the Bengals should lead to some TE production, but it's hard to say which guy will come out ahead in terms of snaps and routes, never mind targets.

Johnson (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

Johnson will join D'Andre Swift (groin) on the sidelines for this one, leaving Kyle Monangai and Travis Homer as the lone healthy running backs currently on the 53-man roster. Brittain Brown is on the practice squad as a likely elevation for Week 9.

Davis (illness) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Davis didn't practice Wednesday due to an illness but capped Week 9 prep with back-to-back full sessions, paving the way for him to be available Sunday. His touch count has been hit or miss this season, with a pair of nine-carry outings and then seven combined touches in his five other appearances this season. James Cook has dominated the Bills backfield, while Ty Johnson has been more involved than Davis, leaving the latter on the outside looking in.

Moore (hip/groin) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Chicago's top four WRs were all listed on the injury report this week, but only No. 4 receiver Luther Burden (out - concussion) hasn't been cleared to play. Moore thus figures to handle his usual role, though perhaps with a bit more upside for carries and screens in the absence of RB D'Andre Swift (out - groin).

Prater (right calf) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

The 41-year-old logged three consecutive limited sessions during the Bills' week of practice due to a calf injury, but it now appears that he'll play through the issue in Week 9. Expect Prater to serve as the Bills' top placekicker Sunday.

Odunze (heel) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

The same goes for WR DJ Moore (hip/groin), WR Olamide Zaccheaus (knee) and TE Cole Kmet (back), while No. 4 receiver Luther Burden (concussion) and starting running back D'Andre Swift (groin) have been ruled out. Odunze doesn't really have room for growth in terms of snap/route shares, but he could be even more of a priority than usual in terms of targets/touches with Swift and Burden out of action.

Allgeier (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at New England, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Allgeier played through the same injury last week and ended up handling a season-high 40 percent snap share in the 34-10 loss to Miami. He'll likely play much less this week, unless the Falcons end up in a blowout again
