  • DeeJay Dallas RB | MIN

    DeeJay Dallas: Reverts to Minnesota's practice squad

    Dallas reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Dallas carried the ball one time for four yards over 17 offensive snaps in Sunday's game against the Lions. The running back also participated in 17 snaps for the special teams unit. Dallas has one elevation to the active roster remaining before the Vikings will be forced to re-sign the 28-year-old to the 53-man roster to get any more snaps out of him.

  • Ryan Miller WR | NE

    Ryan Miller: Reverts to practice squad

    Miller reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    The wide receiver was elevated for New England's Week 8 win over Miami after the team ruled out A.J. Brown (knee/ankle). Miller saw action on five offensive snaps but did not record a catch. Brown's status next week could go a long way toward determining whether Miller is elevated again.

  • Cade Otton TE | TB

    Buccaneers' Cade Otton: No catches again in Week 8 win

    Otton wasn't targeted in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.

    Playing in rain-soaked conditions, the Bucs attempted just three passes all afternoon, as Baker Mayfield failed to complete any of the three. Otton has now posted back-to-back zero-catch games and has minimal fantasy appeal outside of the deepest of TE-premium formats. He has 19 grabs for 186 yards and no touchdowns on 30 targets through eight games.

  • Chargers' Keaton Mitchell: Totals 23 yards in loss to Rams

    Mitchell rushed four times for six yards and caught all three of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Rams.

    Handpicked by first-year OC Mike McDaniel as a free-agent signing in the offseason, Mitchell has been a total non-factor for much of the first half of the season. With a career 5.7 yards per carry average, Mitchell is averaging just 3.7 yards per rush this season. Involved in a three-way backfield committee, Mitchell is waiver-wire fodder in normal-sized 12-team fantasy leagues.

  • Jauan Jennings WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jauan Jennings: Two grabs in Week 8 loss

    Jennings caught both of his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 19-15 loss to the Lions.

    The Vikings' third receiver, Jennings ran 20 route on Kyler Murray's 33 dropbacks, playing behind both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Jennings' name has been linked to trade speculation but recently declined a deal to San Francisco after the two teams agreed to trade parameters. Jennings has six grabs for 54 yards on 10 targets across six games this season.

  • Joshua Karty K | LAR

    Joshua Karty: Goes back to practice squad

    Karty reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Karty just handled kickoffs for the Rams in Week 8, as veteran Brandon McManus was given the task of kicking field goals and extra points. The team can elevate Karty from the practice squad twice more this season before it would have to sign him to the active roster to make him eligible for regular-season action.

  • Dolphins' Zane Gonzalez: Reverts to practice squad

    Gonzalez reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Miami plans to continue using Gonzalez as its starting kicker in Week 9 against Detroit, but it will have to do use his last practice squad elevation in order to do so, per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Gonzalez is 2-for-3 on field-goal tries and 5-for-5 on extra-point attempts through two starts this season.

  • Ray Davis RB | BUF

    Bills' Ray Davis: Tallies 30 rushing yards in win

    Davis rushed six times for 30 yards in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Ravens.

    With the Bills throttling the Ravens and James Cook suffering a neck injury late in the game, Davis got some added run in the fourth quarter. If Cook would need to miss any time, Davis would be the likely early-down replacement, with Ty Johnson sticking to his role on passing downs and four- and two-minute situations.

  • James Mitchell TE | DAL

    James Mitchell: Reverts to practice squad

    Mitchell reverted to the Cowboys' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    With Luke Schoonmaker (groin) inactive and Jake Ferguson suffering an ankle injury in the first half, Mitchell played 31 offensive snaps behind Brevyn Spann-Ford. Mitchell actually got the scoring started, recovering a Javonte Williams goal-line fumble in the end zone. The tight end wasn't targeted in the passing game.

  • Falcons' James Pearce: Back from suspension

    The NFL reinstated Pearce on Monday after he served his eight-game suspension for violating the league's personal conduct policy, Darius Hayes of Sports Illustrated reports.

    Pearce had to miss the first eight games of the season following an arrest back in February, but he's now back with the Falcons' active roster for Week 9. He projects to eventually play a big role on the edge during the second half of the campaign, but he might get eased back into things to start out.
