4 p.m. ET games

Offense

Tyler Eifert, TE, JAX: Neck -- OUT
Impact: James O'Shaughnessy didn't do much when he filled in after Eifert's injury last week.

Chris Thompson, RB, JAX: Illness -- OUT/IR
Impact: He has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. His limited fantasy value may be usurped by Devine Ozigbo, just off the IR.

Sammy Watkins, WR, KC: Hamstring -- OUT
Impact: Demarcus Robinson and Mecole Hardman both see increased fantasy value.

Tyrod Taylor, QB, LAC: Chest -- Inactive
Impact: Justin Herbert has been strong since taking over for Taylor, who might not start again this season, even when 100% healthy.

Justin Jackson, RB, LAC: Knee -- Active
Impact: Even so, we may end up seeing Joshua Kelley get a lot of carries.

KJ Hill Jr., WR, LAC: Hip -- Inactive
Impact: Just as well that he will sit, as Keenan Allen appears to be at full strength.

Bryan Edwards, WR, LV: Ankle -- OUT
Impact: Hasn't been ready for a month now, which means job security for the trio of Henry Ruggs III, Nelson Agholor and Hunter Renfrow.

Julian Edelman, WR, NE: Knee -- Active
Impact: What else is new? Edelman is questionable. Edelman plays.

Raheem Mostert, RB, SF: Ankle -- OUT/IR
Impact: JaMycal Hasty and Jerick McKinnon will split RB duties ...

Jeff Wilson Jr., RB, SF: Calf -- Active
Impact: ... with Tevin Coleman possibly rejoining the team next week.

Defense

Jeremiah Attaochu, DE, DEN: Quad -- OUT

Myles Jack, LB, JAX: Ankle -- OUT

Maliek Collins, DT, LV: Shoulder -- Active

Adam Butler, DT, NE: Elbow -- Active

1 p.m. ET games

Offense

John Brown, WR, BUF: Knee -- OUT
Impact: Gabriel Davis will fill in for Brown and could deliver some value.

Dawson Knox, TE, BUF: Calf -- OUT/IR
Impact: Tyler Kroft can play, but Lee Smith must also sit as a result of Knox's positive COVID-19 test.

Curtis Samuel, WR, CAR: Knee -- Active
Impact: Keith Kirkwood could still see some action.

Joe Mixon, RB, CIN: Foot -- OUT
Impact: Giovani Bernard could return huge value as he takes over the majority of Mixon's workload.

John Ross III, WR, CIN: Illness -- Inactive
Impact: There's just no value here, as Tee Higgins has stepped up big time.

Austin Hooper, TE, CLE: Appendix -- OUT
Impact: David Njoku and Harrison Bryant will split time in an effort to replace the ill tight end.

Aaron Jones, RB, GB: Calf -- Inactive
Impact: Jamaal Williams is ready to have a huge day.

Jamison Crowder, WR, NYJ: Groin -- Inactive
Impact: Denzel Mims was activated from IR and could see some extra targets.

Sam Ficken, K, NYJ: Groin -- Inactive
Impact: Sergio Castillo, recently signed to the practice squad, is the team's emergency option.

Antonio Gandy-Golden, WR, WSH: Hamstring -- OUT/IR
Impact: Dontrelle Inman should see a significant bump in value.
