Swift (groin/personal) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Giants, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Swift missed last Sunday's win over the Bengals, paving the way for rookie Kyle Monangai to step into a leading role en route to finishing with 198 yards from scrimmage on 29 touches. Monangai's big game prompted head coach Ben Johnson to say Friday that he may take a "hot-hand" approach with Swift and Monangai moving forward, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Assuming Swift is formally cleared ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll draw a favorable matchup against the Giants' 31st-ranked run defense, but Monangai's potential to handle an increased role makes Swift a riskier fantasy bet compared to previous weeks.

McMillan (hamstring) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Saints, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

McMillan was a late-week addition to the injury report Friday after the hamstring issue resulted in him being a limited participant in the Panthers' practice session that day. Fortunately, the injury doesn't seem to be too significant for the rookie first-round pick, though it's fair to wonder if he'll be able to play a full complement of snaps. McMillan owns a 41-558-2 receiving line on 69 targets through nine appearances on the season.

Tillman (hamstring) is expected to play Sunday against the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Tillman was activated from injured reserve earlier Saturday and is expected to make his return to the lineup after being injured in Week 4. With Tillman back in action and Isaiah Bond (foot) ruled out, Tillman should step right back into an every-down role alongside Jerry Jeudy. Tillman, however, has yet to play a game with Dillon Gabriel under center, making him a risky fantasy bet in what is already one of the league's least-potent passing attacks. The good news for Tillman is the Jets' trade of No. 1 CB Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis earlier in the week.

Fannin (hamstring) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Fannin popped up on the Browns' injury report after failing to practice Thursday due to the hamstring issue, but the rookie tight end was able to get in a limited session Friday. He looks as though he's made enough progress to suit up this weekend, though official word on his status won't arrive until the Browns release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Even though Cleveland didn't move veteran tight end David Njoku prior to Tuesday's trade deadline, Fannin should continue to be a viable weekly starter in most fantasy leagues while he and Njoku regularly share the field together. Through his eight appearances this season, Fannin has produced a 38-352-2 receiving line on 51 targets while adding six yards on three carries.

Wilson (knee) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Rich Cimini of ESPN.com had already reported Friday that Wilson was on track to suit up Week 10, so Schefter's report adds further credence to the belief that the wideout will return to the lineup after missing the previous two contests prior to the Jets' Week 9 bye. Wilson draws a difficult matchup against a tough Browns defense, but he has dominated the passing-game targets when available, which cements his status as a quality fantasy starter.

Allen recorded four tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defense during Denver's 10-7 win over Las Vegas on Thursday.

Allen got to Geno Smith on two separate occasions, with the former splitting sacks with Eyioma Uwazurike and Nik Bonitto in the first and second quarters, respectively. Allen has recorded at least 0.5 sacks in six consecutive games and is up to 6.0 sacks through 10 regular-season games, which is third most on the Broncos behind Bonitto (9.5) and Jonathon Cooper (7.5) and 11th most in the NFL.

Jones logged five tackles (four solo) during the Broncos' 10-7 win over the Raiders on Thursday.

Jones was dealing with a minor foot injury leading up to Thursday's game, but it didn't appear to bother him, as he played every single defensive snap. He has recorded at least five stops in eight of the first 10 games of the regular season and is up to 61 tackles (30 solo), including 0.5 sacks, six pass defenses (one interception) and one fumble recovery.

Greenlaw tallied five tackles (two solo), one pass defense and one forced fumble during the Broncos' 10-7 win over the Raiders on Thursday.

Greenlaw played a season-high 37 defensive snaps and finished in a four-way tie for the third most tackles on the Broncos behind Talanoa Hufanga (nine) and Alex Singleton (nine). Greenlaw is up to 19 tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, across three regular-season games.

Kelly logged one tackle and two interceptions during the Raiders' 10-7 loss to the Broncos on Thursday.

Kelly recorded his first two interceptions of the season during Thursday's AFC West tilt. He picked off Bo Nix in the second and fourth quarters, but the Raiders offense wasn't able to capitalize by turning those turnovers into points. Kelly started in each of the first seven games of the regular season but has worked in a rotational role over the last two games with Darien Porter, though the former's performance Thursday could lead to more playing time over the second half of the regular season.

Crosby ended Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Broncos with five tackles (two solo).

Crosby wasn't able to add to his sack total, but he played every single defensive snap for the third time this season while finishing fourth on the Raiders in tackles. The veteran defensive end is up to 37 tackles (23 solo), including 5.0 sacks, six pass defenses (one interception) and one forced fumble through nine regular-season games.
