Wright rushed five times for seven yards in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Vikings.

Wright actually started ahead of Ollie Gordon, but Gordon ended up out-snapping Wright 22 to 12 and turned his nine carries into 100 yards and a touchdown. Gordon also saw two targets to Wright's zero. Wright figures to see a handful of carries each week alongside Gordon, but the latter is the preferred back for fantasy.

Dennis (ankle) underwent an MRI after the Buccaneers' Week 4 loss to the Packers, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reported Monday.

Dennis exited the loss to the Packers early with an ankle injury. The linebacker entered the Week 4 matchup dealing with a lingering calf injury, and the need for an MRI after the contest does not bode well for the 26-year-old's leg. It remains unclear how significant Dennis' injury is and how much time he may be required to miss.

Marks rushed six times for 22 yards and a touchdown while failing to reel in his only target during Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.

Marks logged four fewer carries than David Montgomery (10), but he was able to notch a six-yard score in the fourth quarter. The running back has now scored in back-to-back contests as he attempts to eat into Montgomery's workload in the backfield. Neither running back is a particularly appealing option in fantasy at the moment, but Marks is trending in the right direction.

Otton caught four of six targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Packers.

With rookie Jalon Daniels making his first career start, he leaned on Otton in the passing game, and the tight end ended up leading the team in receiving yards despite seeing one fewer target than Chris Godwin. Otton has turned 23 targets into 15 catches for 157 yards through four games this season.

Johnson (biceps) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 season, Dani Sureck of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Johnson sustained a biceps injury during the Cardinals' Week 4 loss to the Giants. The injury is severe, and the star left tackle will now need to miss the remainder of the 2026 season. Josh Fryer or Jayden Williams will start on the Cardinals' offensive line as Johnson's replacement.

Okonkwo caught two of four targets for five yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts.

Returning from a two-game absence due to a hamstring suffered in Week 1, Okonkwo logged 37 of 64 offensive snaps and ran 25 routes on 41 dropbacks. He remains firmly atop the depth chart at tight end in Washington, but it hasn't resulted in much fantasy production.

Smith (neck) is being evaluated for a possible question and is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Smith took a knee to the helmet early in the first quarter and was down on the field for several minutes, but the veteran pass rusher was able to jog off the field and into the blue medical tent. Cameron Thomas and Yasir Abdullah should both see more defensive snaps for as long as Smith is on the sidelines being evaluated by medical staff.

Freeling (knee) could return to the field as soon as the Panthers' Week 6 game against the Buccaneers, Mike Kaye of ESPN.com reported Monday.

Freeling suffered a knee injury in the third quarter of the Panthers' Week 4 win over the Lions. The right tackle has already been preliminarily ruled out of the team's Week 5 matchup with the Eagles, but there is hope the lineman could be back for the Week 6 divisional matchup with the Buccaneers. While Freeling recovers, Stone Forsythe will likely start at right tackle.

Singleton turned three carries into two yards during the Titans' 24-18 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Two of Singleton's three carries went for no gain, but he at least had some involvement in the offense after not recording a carry nor a target in Week 3 against the Giants. He actually had one more carry than Tyjae Spears, but Singleton was on the field for only eight of the Titans' 64 offensive snaps (12.5 percent), far less than Spears (23) and lead back Tony Pollard (34). Adam Schefter of ESPN notes that Pollard's name is one to watch ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline, and both Spears and Singleton would take on larger roles if the Titans elect to trade Pollard to a team in need of a veteran running back.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Thompson (ankle) is not expected back for Week 5, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Thompson has already missed the 49ers' last two games with an ankle injury he picked up in Week 2 versus the Dolphins, and it seems like he's trending towards missing another contest come Sunday. In that case, Sebastian Valdez would be a candidate for increased snaps on the defensive line.
