Spears (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Spears will miss a second straight game, opening up RB2 duties for Michael Carter behind clear lead back Tony Pollard, who gets a boost as a potential volume RB2 play in fantasy.

Bech (forearm) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Jets, Sam Warren of The Athletic reports.

Bech was a full practice participant Wednesday through Friday, so it won't come as any surprise if he's activated from injured reserve before the 4 p.m. ET deadline Saturday (to be eligible for Sunday's game). He opened the year as the Raiders' No. 2 wide receiver, but minimal production from Jalen Nailor could open an opportunity to climb the depth chart in November/December.

Tate (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ben Arthur of FoxSports.com reports.

After missing practice throughout the week, Tate now will be unavailable for Sunday's contest. His absence should open up snaps at wide receiver for Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike alongside slot man Wan'Dale Robinson. Veteran Calvin Ridley (hip) will also be an option, assuming he's healthy enough to play.

Barkley (hamstring/back) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Washington.

After missing the first two practices of Week 8 prep, Barkley was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday as he deals with a lingering hamstring injury and a new back issue that he sustained Monday against the Cowboys. Earlier Friday, he told Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com, "I would hope so," when asked if he's playing Sunday. With no designation to speak of on the final practice report, Barkley is in the clear ahead of the weekend, and he likely will retain a workhorse role due to the otherwise banged-up nature of the Eagles backfield.

Monangai (thumb/toe) was listed as a non-participant for Friday's practice, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Monangai has now missed another practice while managing thumb and toe issues. He hasn't practiced in weeks and appears headed for another absence Monday night against the Seahawks. If Monangai does sit, Roschon Johnson would again handle backup duties behind D'Andre Swift.

Meyers (hamstring/ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Meyers didn't practice Friday, but the Jaguars are leaving the light on for the veteran wideout to face Indianapolis. He's coming off a productive Week 6 game against the Texans in which Meyers caught five of 10 targets for 83 yards. The Jaguars are fresh off their bye. If Meyers can't go, Brian Thomas, Josh Cameron and Travis Hunter would have expanded roles behind Parker Washington.

Loveland was limited at Friday's practice due to a neck injury, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Loveland is making a midweek appearance on the Bears' Week 8 injury report, which may be cause for concern ahead of Monday's game at Seattle. In the end, though, Saturday's practice report will determine if he has a designation for that matchup.

Davis (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

After sitting out practice Thursday, Davis practiced fully Friday and will assume his normal role as the Bills' RB3 behind James Cook and passing-down back Ty Johnson. Davis has rushed five times for 12 yards this season and only holds contingent value in fantasy should anything happen to Cook.

Kelce (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Kelce missed some practice reps this week and has been dealing with the ankle issue for a couple weeks. He played through it last Sunday night against the Seahawks and posted four catches for 44 yards on eight targets. The veteran tight end hasn't visited the end zone since Week 3.

Parkinson (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Parkinson has been banged up seemingly all season, first dealing with shoulder and knee injuries before a ribs issue this week. Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen would be set to handle most of the tight-end duties for the Rams if Parkinson is unable to play, and rookie Max Klare could even see some action on offense.
