Xavier Worthy WR | KC
Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Ready to face Detroit in Week 6
Worthy (shoulder/ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Lions after returning to a full practice Friday.
Worthy, who is managing shoulder and ankle issues, didn't practice Thursday, but his return to a full session a day later suggests that his absence was maintenance-related, rather than indicative of a setback. In two games back since missing time with a shoulder injury that he sustained Week 1, Worthy has combined to catch 11 passes (on 17 targets) for 125 yards and log three carries for 47 yards, a pace that keeps the starting WR firmly on the Week 6 fantasy lineup radar.

K'Lavon Chaisson LB | WAS
Patriots' K'Lavon Chaisson: Ready for Week 6
Chaisson (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.
The 2020 first-round pick from LSU upgraded from limited practice Thursday to a full session Friday, suggesting he's moved past his knee issue in time to face New Orleans on Sunday. Chaisson has appeared in four games for the Patriots this season, recording nine total tackles, including 2.5 sacks. Now healthy again, he's expected to start opposite Harold Landry to form New England's top edge-rushing duo in Week 6.

Darren Waller TE | CAR
Dolphins' Darren Waller: Cleared despite limited practices
Waller (hip/rest) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Waller was a limited participant Thursday and Friday after failing to practice Wednesday, but he'll be available for Week 6 action. The veteran tight end has thrived since recovering from a hip injury that sidelined him through Week 3, posting eight catches for 105 yards and three touchdowns across two games since making his Dolphins debut.

Will Shipley RB | PHI
Eagles' Will Shipley: Barely features in Week 6
Shipley saw the field for just three offensive snaps in Thursday's loss to the Giants.
Shipley hasn't been a significant part of the offense at any point this season for the Eagles, but Thursday represented his season-low snap count. He did not touch the ball on offense but did return one kick for 22 yards.

Trey Pipkins OT | LAC
Chargers' Trey Pipkins: Out for Sunday
Pipkins (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
The veteran's absence in Week 6 comes as no surprise, as he logged three consecutive DNPs after sustaining an ankle injury in the Week 5 loss to the Commanders. With Pipkins and Joe Alt (ankle) both sidelined Sunday, the Chargers will be without both of their starting tackles.
-
Da'Shawn Hand DE | ATL
Chargers' Da'Shawn Hand: Sitting out Week 6
Hand (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Hand will be sidelined by the injury he suffered in the Week 5 loss to Washington. Scott Matlock (ankle) would be in line for additional action in Hand's absence if Matlock suits up. Hand's next chance to play will come against the Colts in Week 7.
-
Denzel Perryman MLB | LAC
Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Questionable but still on IR
Perryman (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Perryman would first have to be activated from injured reserve in order to have a chance to suit up Sunday. He's working his way back from a high-ankle sprain suffered in the season opener against the Chiefs.
-
Joe Alt OT | LAC
Chargers' Joe Alt: Won't play in Week 6
Alt (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
The 2024 first-round pick from Notre Dame sustained a high-ankle sprain in the Week 4 loss to the Giants and hasn't returned to practice since, so his absence Sunday comes as no surprise. Mekhi Becton is likely to slide over and start at left tackle while Alt remains sidelined in Week 6.

AJ Dillon RB | CAR
Eagles' AJ Dillon: Three touches in Week 6
Dillon carried the ball once for two yards and caught a pair of passes for 18 yards in Thursday's loss to the Giants.
Dillon received his first two targets of the year, but overall his workload remained minimal. He's yet to receive more than three touches or see the field for more than 10 offensive snaps in a game this season.
