Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Robinson sat out last week due to this knee injury but returned to practice this week in a limited capacity. John Keim of ESPN reported that the Alabama product is "trending in the right direction" as well. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status while heading into the weekend. If Robinson can play, he should be locked into all lineups as a solid RB2. If not, Austin Ekeler should see a significant uptick in opportunities, with Jeremy McNichols entering low-end flex territory, facing the worst run defense in football.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle gets a strong matchup when his team takes on the Indianapolis Colts on the road in Week 7. While he's yet to eclipse 46 yards since his 109-yard outing in Week 1, Waddle has been consistent -; albeit unspectacular -; recording four receptions in four straight matchups. It's difficult to trust him as more than a FLEX option this week due to the lack of ceiling in the Dolphins' offense sans quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). However, the Colts present as one of the weaker matchups against opponents across the board, and the 25-year-old saw his highest target total of the season his last time out in Week 5 (8). The former Alabama Crimson Tide is RotoBaller's PPR WR46 this week ahead of a 44-point over/under outing.

Indianapolis Colts wide receivers Josh Downs (toe) and Alec Pierce (shoulder) are both listed as questionable for Sunday's game, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. Downs opened the week sitting out during Wednesday's practice but was able to upgrade to a limited status on Thursday and Friday. Pierce popped up on the injury report on Thursday but was able to log a limited session on Friday. Even though they both participated in Friday's practice in a limited capacity, it is a positive sign for their status heading into the weekend. If both wideouts can play, Downs should be viewed as a WR2 with upside, while Pierce should be viewed as a WR3 with upside facing the Miami Dolphins.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is set to line up against the Indianapolis Colts in the team's Week 7 matchup. Hill and the other Dolphins' skill players have largely been a disappointment since losing quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) in their Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills. However, in his last time out before Miami's bye, he put together his best performance since Week 1, hauling in 6-of-10 targets for 69 yards. It's modest output -; and not very Cheetah-esque -; but he'll have another opportunity to put up strong numbers against a sieve-like Colts defense. Indianapolis is averaging 234.3 yards through the air per game to opposing passing attacks and the fifth-most yards per attempt (6.9). While fantasy managers must keep expectations in check, this is as good a matchup as any to fire up the 30-year-old. Hill is RotoBaller's WR22 in Week 7's rankings.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. Pittman opened the week sitting out during Wednesday's practice but then upgraded to full participation on Thursday. However, he was downgraded to a non-participant on Friday, which is not a positive sign for his status. However, Pittman has been able to play through this back injury over the past few weeks and could very well see his typical workload on Sunday. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status throughout the weekend and should feel comfortable starting him as a low-end WR2 if he can play.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7. In Kansas City's last contest, Butker nailed four of five field goal attempts and both of his extra-point attempts in the 26-13 win over the New Orleans Saints in Week 5. Butker has been accurate this season, draining 12 of his 14 field goal attempts and 10 of 11 extra-point attempts. Butker has been one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL throughout his career, nailing over 85% of his field goal attempts in every season except 2022. Butker has also made over 90% of his extra-point attempts in his career. The San Francisco defense is a well-rounded unit that could trouble the Kansas City offense when the field shortens. If the Chiefs offense stalls within Butker's range, he is more than capable of splitting the uprights. The Kansas City Chiefs kicker should be worthy of a start in Week 7.

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert is set to square off against the Indianapolis Colts this Sunday in Week 7. Mostert returned to action in Week 5 after missing three weeks with a chest injury that kept him sidelined since Week 1. The 32-year-old was afforded an extra week of rest with the team's Week 6 bye and is ready to roll for an intriguing Week 7 matchup. Indianapolis has been Swiss Cheese against opposing rushing attacks in 2024, letting up 4.6 yards per rush (fourth-most) and the second-most yards on the ground per game (155.2). The Purdue product's 19 carries in Week 5 led the team. However, with De'Von Achane (concussion) projected to be back in the fold, he may take somewhat of a backseat. Before Achane was forced from the victory against the Patriots two weeks back, he received three of the first five backfield touches, while Mostert and rookie RB Jaylen Wright split the other two. Mostert was the preferred option sans Achane, but it's tough to project him to lead his teammates with all backs healthy. The former undrafted free agent is RotoBaller's PPR RB38 in this week's rankings.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will take on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7. Mahomes and the Chiefs emerge from their Week 6 bye as one of two undefeated teams in the National Football League. Despite Kansas City's success, Mahomes has yet to be a top-end fantasy option at the quarterback position this season. Mahomes is averaging just 13.7 fantasy points per game in a 4-point per passing touchdown league. The Kansas City quarterback currently ranks as a low-end QB2, a far cry from where he was selected during draft season. Mahomes will have to take on a well-rounded Niners defense ranked 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. The San Francisco defense is more formidable against the run than the pass, so Mahomes may have to do more in this matchup, but Andy Reid has shown his dedication toward leaning on the run game this season. Until he proves otherwise, Mahomes should no longer be viewed as a top-12 quarterback option in fantasy football.

Buffalo Bills rookie running back Ray Davis (calf) popped up on this week's injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice the last two days. The Bills listed him as questionable to play this Sunday in Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans. It's disappointing for fantasy managers that picked Davis up off the waiver wire after his impressive performance against the division-rival New York Jets on Monday night. The 24-year-old fourth-rounder was explosive on his way to 97 rushing yards on 20 carries with James Cook (toe) inactive in Week 6. He also caught all three of his targets for 55 yards. Cook has been cleared to play in Week 7, so even if Davis is given the green light to play on Sunday, he'll likely take a back seat to Cook in the running game. Despite the bad news, Davis' upside makes him a worthwhile stash in most leagues, especially if you also have Cook rostered.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7. Kelce and the Chiefs should be fresh coming off their Week 6 bye. The Chiefs tight end put together a strong performance in the team's last contest against the New Orleans Saints in Week 5. Kelce caught nine passes for 70 yards against the Saints two weeks ago. With wide receiver Rashee Rice likely out for the remainder of the regular season, Kelce should continue to see a high-volume workload. However, the Chiefs are facing the Niners, who know them well. These two teams matched up in the 2020 Super Bowl, and Kansas City walked away with the victory in that game. The Niners know that Kelce is the biggest threat in the Kansas City passing attack, which means he could see some extra attention in this contest. The San Francisco defense is ranked 12th in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season, so this matchup will not be a walk in the park. Despite the tough matchup, Kelce is seeing elite opportunity as a tight end, and he should be started with confidence every week.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring) will not play in Week 7, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Goedert left last weekend's game early with a hamstring injury and did not participate in any team practices this week. The 29-year-old will now shift his focus on returning in Week 8 to face the Cincinnati Bengals. As a result, Grant Calcaterra will move up to the top of the depth chart and could be worth a look as a replacement in deeper formats, as he caught four passes for 67 yards last weekend when filling in Goedert.

From RotoBaller

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon in Week 7. Hunt has taken over the Chiefs backfield in both games he has played this season. In the Chiefs most recent contest against the Saints in Week 5, Hunt totaled 27 carries for 102 yards and a rushing touchdown. The Chiefs running back also had one catch for 15 yards in that game. This week, Hunt will have more competition for touches out of the backfield with the return of Clyde Edwards-Helaire. The Chiefs former first-round pick was officially activated from the NFI list and should mix into the backfield immediately. Hunt and the Chiefs will also have a tough matchup against the San Francisco defense. The Niners have allowed the seventh-fewest rushing yards per game to opposing offenses this season. Despite the unclear touch distribution out of the backfield and tough matchup, Hunt is still ranked as RB17 in our Half-PPR RotoBaller rankings this week. Fantasy managers should still start Hunt this week, but don't be surprised if he has a down game.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) was officially listed as questionable to play in Week 7 against the division-rival Detroit Lions on Sunday. Jones did not practice on Wednesday but was limited on Thursday and Friday and is reportedly likely to suit up for the big divisional clash despite the questionable tag. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Sunday morning to see that Jones is officially active before locking him into lineups. The 29-year-old luckily had the Week 6 bye to heal up and should be ready to roll on Sunday. If for some reason he isn't or is limited with his workload, the Vikings have both Ty Chandler and Cam Akers that could see more work out of the backfield. Jones will be more of a shaky RB3/flex this weekend if he plays. He enters Week 7 averaging 12.7 fantasy points per game, good for 15th among all RBs.

From RotoBaller

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) is officially listed as questionable to suit up this Sunday for his 2024 debut in Week 7 against the division-rival Detroit Lions. Hockenson said earlier this week he still doesn't have a set date for when he expects to come off Injured Reserve to make his season debut, so it seems unlikely that the Vikings will have him return this Sunday. The 27-year-old returned to practice two weeks ago as he continues to rehab ACL and MCL tears in his knee. In the event Hockenson was activated to play against the Lions, he'd almost certainly be eased in and therefore would be a very volatile fantasy play. With that said, Hockenson needs to be rostered in all fantasy formats, as he has the ability to be a weekly TE1 play when all is said and done in 2024.

From RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (concussion) said he cleared the league's concussion protocol and is in line to play this Sunday in Week 7 versus the Indianapolis Colts. Achane practiced in full all week, so the writing was on the wall for him to be active this weekend after he suffered a concussion in the Week 5 game against the division-rival New England Patriots. The 23-year-old was fortunate to have a bye last week to rest up, and now he's ready to go as Miami's lead back against the Colts. He had only three carries against the Pats in Week 5 before being ruled out with his head injury. Achane and the rest of the Dolphins' offensive skill players will have lower fantasy ceilings and floors as long as quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) remains out, but Achane should at least be in play as an RB2 in a good matchup in Indy this weekend.

From RotoBaller

The Miami Dolphins have listed wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) as questionable to play in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts due to a hamstring injury. Beckham missed all of training camp and the first four weeks of the 2024 regular season due to a knee injury that required offseason surgery, but now he's dealing with a hamstring ailment coming out of the team's bye week. In his 2024 debut with Miami in Week 5 against the division-rival New England Patriots, OBJ played just 11 offensive snaps and couldn't corral is only target in the passing game. The 31-year-old veteran is far from the fantasy radar as things currently stand, especially with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) still on Injured Reserve. No receiver in Miami can be trusted in fantasy outside of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle with QB Tyler Huntley running the offense.

From RotoBaller

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is officially listed as doubtful to play in Week 7 on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Rams. Head coach Antonio Pierce was hopeful that Meyers would play this weekend after he missed practice on Wednesday, but the 27-year-old pass-catcher wasn't able to get back on the practice field on Thursday and is now likely to miss his second straight game. After the Raiders traded away All-Pro receiver Davante Adams to the Jets this week, their receiving corps is brutally thin with Meyers also hurt. They will move forward with Tre Tucker, DJ Turner and rookie tight end Brock Bowers as their primary targets for quarterback Aidan O'Connell through the air. Tyreik McAllister and Kristian Wilkerson could also get more involved for the Raiders at wideout. At best, Tucker should be considered more of a WR5/flex in fantasy with Meyers likely out again.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Rams rookie wide receiver Jordan Whittington (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 7 on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to head coach Sean McVay. Whittington, who will be listed as questionable on the final injury report on Friday, could once again have an expanded role if Cooper Kupp (ankle) is rested for another week. Kupp is considered a game-time decision for Sunday. The 24-year-old Whittington caught 13 of his 18 targets for 151 yards and no touchdowns in the last two games with Kupp sidelined. However, he'll only be worthy of flex consideration in deeper fantasy leagues this weekend in a plus-plus matchup if Kupp misses another game. In five games total in his rookie campaign in 2024 for the Rams, Whittington has produced 18 receptions on 23 targets for 201 yards and no touchdowns.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) was held out of Thursday's practice session but returned to practice on Friday. Head coach Andy Reid said Smith-Schuster will play during the Week 7 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. It sounds like the team is leaving him as questionable on the injury report just in case he suffers a setback. Smith-Schuster hauled in seven of his eight targets for 130 yards in Week 5. The Chiefs are limited in terms of viable passing options, so Smith-Schuster should continue being the primary slot receiver. The 27-year-old has some flex appeal heading into a tough matchup against the 49ers.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (ankle) is considered questionable to play in the Week 7 game on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Head coach Sean McVay said a decision on Kupp could come down to closer to game time on Sunday. Kupp suffered an ankle sprain in Week 2 but has made good progress coming out of the bye week and could return to action this weekend. However, the 31-year-old is up in the air, making the decision to play him in fantasy lineups in Week 7 a little tricky with the Rams not kicking off until the later slate on Sunday. LA plays again next Thursday night on a quick turnaround against the Minnesota Vikings, too, which could influence their decision to rest Kupp for another week. The good news is Kupp "had a good week" of practice. If he returns on Sunday, Kupp will be a must-start for fantasy managers in an excellent matchup.
