Head coach Kyle Shanahan said after Sunday's 42-26 loss to the Rams that Purdy (toe) has a real chance to return in Week 11 against the Cardinals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Mac Jones made his eighth start of the season in Sunday's loss to the Rams, which dropped the 49ers to 6-4. Purdy has been progressing in his recovery from turf toe and was a limited participant in Week 10 prior to being declared inactive against the Rams. Purdy would likely need to ramp up to full participation prior to reclaiming the starting role.

Coleman secured three of eight targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Coleman was far from efficient, but he did finish second in receiving yards and targets behind Khalil Shakir and recorded his third touchdown of the season on a 35-yard catch early in the fourth quarter. Coleman's receiving yardage tally was his highest since Week 1, but his production remains modest overall, and he's posted three catches or less in seven of the last eight games. Coleman next takes aim at the Buccaneers secondary in a Week 11 home matchup.

McBride finished with nine receptions on 13 targets for 127 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 loss to the Seahawks.

McBride turned in his finest performance of the year in the Cardinals' ugliest loss of the season. Most fantasy managers couldn't care less about the game result after the stud tight end went off for his first 100-plus-yard game of 2025. McBride continued his newfound prowess in the red zone with QB Jacoby Brissett under center, nabbing his fifth touchdown (sixth overall) in the four games the veteran backup has started. The 25-year-old McBride will look to continue feasting against an injury-riddled 49ers defense next Sunday.

Shakir secured seven of nine targets for 58 yards in the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Shakir led the Bills in receptions, receiving yards and targets on a forgettable day for Buffalo's offense despite Josh Allen throwing for over 300 yards. Shakir posted a second consecutive seven-catch effort, and he's recorded at least six receptions in four of the last five contests overall, albeit while not topping 88 receiving yards at any point in that span. Shakir takes a 45-457-3 receiving line on 58 targets into a Week 11 home matchup against the Buccaneers.

St. Brown recorded five receptions on eight targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

St. Brown turned in his lowest reception total since Week 1 and his lowest target total since Week 4, but he still managed to turn in a serviceable performance. He was used primarily in the short areas of the field, logging long catches of 16 and 15 yards while also finding the end zone from nine yards away. St.Brown now has eight touchdowns on the campaign and has at least 70 receiving yards or a touchdown in seven of nine contests.

Adams suffered an oblique injury during Sunday's 42-26 win over the 49ers, but he would probably have returned if the score was closer, coach Sean McVay said after the game, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.

Adams' status will bear monitoring ahead of Week 11 against the Seahawks, but McVay sounded optimistic regarding Adams' injury after the game. Prior to exiting in the fourth quarter, Adams caught six of eight targets for 77 yards and scored his ninth touchdown of the season.

Gibbs rushed the ball 15 times for 142 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders. He added three receptions on four targets for 30 yards and an additional score.

Gibbs showcased his entire skill set in Sunday's win, accounting for three touchdowns and 172 yards from scrimmage. His first score came on a route over the middle for 14 yards, which he then followed up with a tough 13-yard run into the end zone, during which he bullied his way through several defenders. Gibbs capped off his day with a 43-yard scamper down the right sideline, beating several Commanders defenders with his speed. This was Gibbs' most productive fantasy performance of the season -- it was his second-highest yardage total of the campaign -- and marked his fourth game with either multiple trips to the end zone or 100 total yards from scrimmage.

Smith-Njigba corralled five of six targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 rout of the Cardinals.

Smith-Njigba got off to a hot start Sunday when he peeled the top off of Arizona's defense for a 43-yard touchdown on the game's opening drive. JSN was checked for a concussion in the first half, but he returned promptly without issue for the remainder of the contest. The explosive play would end up accounting for most of Smith-Njigba's final fantasy score -- even with the Seahawks dropping 44 points -- after Seattle's defense and rushing attack accounted for the remaining four touchdowns. The breakout superstar became the first player to reach 1,000 yards in receiving this season, and he sits just 89 yards shy of the career best 1,130 yards he posted in 2024. Smith-Njigba will attempt to accomplish the personal achievement in a pivotal NFC West matchup against the Rams next Sunday.

Harris (chest) is active for Sunday Night Football against Pittsburgh.

Harris will make his regular-season debut after missing more than two months with a chest injury. The 36-year-old is set to return to his starting role at long snapper with Los Angeles.

Tremble was not targeted during Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Saints.

The 25-year-old was Carolina's only active tight end who failed to draw a target in Sunday's loss, while Ja'Tavion Sanders caught all five of his targets for 32 yards and Mitchell Evans couldn't catch his lone look. Over the Panthers last four games, Tremble has caught just two of three targets for four yards, cementing his status as a blocker rather than a receiving threat. He'll likely maintain a similar role in the Week 11 matchup against the Falcons.
