Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday due to a right-shoulder injury, according to Paul Dehner Jr. Flacco went down as a non-participant during Wednesday's practice, but he was able to do more in practice on Thursday and is expected to be ready to start this weekend against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers coming out of their bye. The 40-year-old has put up some gaudy numbers since coming to Cincy, but he might only be in line to make two more starts for his new team with Joe Burrow (toe) nearing a return from Injured Reserve. Flacco was on the injury report in Week 9 with his shoulder injury, but he played through it and threw for 470 yards in the loss to the Bears, so we think he'll be alright for this weekend against a Steelers secondary that has been shaky in 2025.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (oblique) is warming up with the rest of the team and is in uniform for Thursday's practice, suggesting he will return to the field, according to Nate Atkins of The Athletic. Adams was held out of Wednesday's session after injuring his oblique in the Week 10 win over the San Francisco 49ers, but the Rams are pretty confident the 32-year-old veteran will be able to play in Week 11 versus the division-rival Seattle Seahawks. As he typically does before practicing, Adams ran routes during individual pass-game drills on Thursday. Adams will probably be listed as limited on Thursday, but he should be available for fantasy managers this weekend and will be a must-start in what could easily be a shootout in L.A. He's taken a back seat to Puka Nacua in terms of targets, but he leads the NFL with nine touchdowns through nine games.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder, toe) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Thursday due to shoulder and toe injuries. The veteran back played through the ailments in Week 10, so he's likely on track to suit up in Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. Across five games played this season, Jones Sr. has recorded 287 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 46 total touches. His workload upside is limited in Minnesota while he shares a backfield with Jordan Mason, but Jones Sr. is currently averaging 6.2 yards per touch, which would be a career-high if sustained over a full season. He also saw a season-high six targets in Week 10. As long as he's active, Jones Sr. profiles as a solid fantasy RB2 in Week 11 against Chicago.

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (toe) missed a second straight practice this week on Thursday due to a toe injury that he picked up in the Week 10 win over the Minnesota Vikings, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. The 27-year-old will need to get back on the practice field on Friday to avoid being ruled out for this weekend's divisional matchup against the hosting Cleveland Browns. Even if Hill can play in Week 11, it's looking more like the Ravens want to make Keaton Mitchell a bigger part of the backfield plans behind starter Derrick Henry, which would mean Hill drops to RB3 duties. Hill has seen exactly one rushing attempt in each of the last three games for a total of five yards while catching three passes for 25 yards in that span. The 27-year-old's fantasy stock is on the decline, while Mitchell's arrow is pointing upward.

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) was held out of practice again on Thursday as he battles a foot injury he suffered in Week 10. The 26-year-old appears to be in serious jeopardy of missing his team's crucial Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, and earlier reporting has indicated that Dobbins may even be a candidate to be placed on Injured Reserve. Across 10 games this season, Dobbins has recorded 153 carries for 772 rushing yards and four touchdowns. If he is unable to play in Week 11, rookie running back RJ Harvey profiles as Denver's clear lead back, with Tyler Badie mixing in on passing downs as well. Dobbins' official status for Sunday won't be decided until later in the week, but fantasy managers would be wise to proceed as though he will not play in Week 11

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) missed his second straight practice on Thursday due to a hamstring injury. The 28-year-old appears to be at risk of missing his team's Week 11 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Across eight games this season, Slayton has recorded 23 catches for 343 yards on 34 targets. He's been trending up in recent weeks, hauling in nine catches for 151 yards on 11 targets over his last two games played. If Slayton is unable to play in Week 11, Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and tight end Theo Johnson could both see a boost in target share. Wideouts Isaiah Hodgins and Jalin Hyatt could see their playing time increase as well.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) was added to Thursday's injury report as a limited practice participant due to an ankle injury, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. While the exact nature of Worthy's ankle issue is not yet clear, a midweek injury raises questions about his status for Kansas City's Week 11 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Across seven games this season, Worthy has recorded 24 receptions for 256 yards and a touchdown on 40 targets. If he's unable to play against Denver, Chiefs wideouts Marquise Brown and Tyquan Thornton are the most likely candidates to step into a larger role alongside star wide receiver Rashee Rice. Should Worthy be available, he profiles as a low-end WR3/flex option for fantasy managers this week in a tough matchup against the Broncos.

The New York Jets have placed wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) on Injured Reserve, per Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Wilson re-aggravated an existing knee injury during his team's Week 10 win over the Cleveland Browns. As a result of his IR placement, Wilson is now guaranteed to miss at least the next four games for New York. His earliest possible return to the field would be in Week 15 when the Jets travel to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars. Of course, there's no guarantee that the 2-7 Jets will rush Wilson back to the field for what will likely be meaningless games down the stretch of the season. Fantasy managers in leagues without IR spots may now be forced to make a difficult choice about whether Wilson is still worth rostering.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) recorded his second straight limited practice on Thursday. The veteran has missed four consecutive games due to a fibula injury, but it appears he has a chance to make his return in Week 11 against the Buffalo Bills. Across the two games he's been active for in 2025, Godwin has recorded six catches for 52 yards on 14 targets. Given his myriad injury issues over the past year-plus, Tampa Bay may look to re-integrate Godwin into the offense slowly. If he remains out in Week 11, rookie wide receiver Tez Johnson would likely serve as the team's WR2 alongside Emeka Egbuka for another game. Based on him logging back-to-back limited practices to open the week, Godwin's Week 11 status may not be determined until Sunday.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy (right hand) practiced in full on Thursday after being listed as a limited participant on Wednesday due to a hand injury. The 22-year-old appears to be tracking towards being fine for his team's crucial Week 11 matchup against the Chicago Bears. McCarthy had a rough game in Week 10, completing less than 50% of his pass attempts and throwing two interceptions in a loss to the Baltimore Ravens. On the plus side, he rushed for 48 yards and has now racked up 100 rushing yards and two touchdowns across four games this season. McCarthy's legs could be an even greater emphasis in Week 11 if he's battling an injury to his throwing hand. He profiles as a low-end fantasy QB2 in Week 11 against Chicago.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) returned to practice this week and was limited for the second straight day on Thursday, according to Brianna Dix of Buccaneers.com. Irving has not played since Week 4, but it appears he might have a real chance at returning this Sunday to take on the Buffalo Bills. The 23-year-old was Tampa's clear lead back before suffering a shoulder subluxation and a sprained foot. Fantasy managers have to be stoked that Irving is making progress, but keep in mind that head coach Todd Bowles said earlier this week that he didn't expect Irving to play in Week 11. He'll probably need a full practice on Friday to have a realistic shot at playing this weekend. If Irving isn't cleared, his next chance to play will be in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams. Rachaad White and Sean Tucker will split backfield work another week if Irving doesn't play.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) returned to a full practice session on Thursday after he was limited the day before, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN. Swift missed the Week 9 game due to a nagging groin issue, but he returned in last week's win over the New York Giants and handled 18 touches for 98 scrimmage yards. However, rookie RB Kyle Monangai, who went off in Week 9 in Swift's absence, scored the team's lone rushing touchdown on seven carries. The 26-year-old Swift is still the Bears' lead back, but the emergence of Monangai as his change-of-pace backfield mate could limit Swift's overall weekly upside in the second half of the season. Swift is the RB14 in half-PPR scoring this year with 544 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 113 carries while adding 23 catches for 210 yards and another score in eight games. He'll be a high-end RB2 in Week 11 against the G-Men.

After missing practice on Wednesday, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) was upgraded to a limited participant on Thursday, according to ESPN's Courtney Cronin. Moore hurt his shoulder in the second half of last week's win over the New York Giants, but he was able to return and should be fine to play in Week 11 on the road against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings this Sunday. Although Moore has been the team's second leading receiver through 10 weeks behind second-year wideout Rome Odunze, he's been pretty unreliable for fantasy purposes and has only one receiving touchdown on the year. Through nine games, Moore has 30 catches on 48 targets for 403 yards and one TD through the air. He also has a TD on the ground and has thrown a TD pass. The 28-year-old has a matchup to exploit this weekend in New York, but he's been a low-volume, low-ceiling WR4/flex in fantasy.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday, but he said he's "just sore" and still considers himself in the "ramp-up stage" of his return from a torn ACL he suffered in last year's regular-season finale, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. When asked if he expects to play on Sunday against the New York Giants, Watson said, "Oh yeah." The 26-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 made his season debut in Week 8 and has caught eight of his 12 targets for 188 yards and no touchdowns in his first three games. He started by playing only 56% of the offensive snaps in Week 8, but he has slowly seen more action and saw an 82% snap share in the Monday night loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Watson is a bit of a boom/bust fantasy asset, but he's averaging a healthy 23.5 yards per catch as a big-play guy, and he could certainly boom this weekend against the G-Men.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze (ankle) upgraded to a limited practice on Thursday, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN. Odunze has been dealing with an ankle injury since late October and hasn't been taking part in practices on Wednesdays. Now that the 23-year-old second-year wideout is back at practice on Thursday, he will most likely upgrade to full on Friday and be cleared to play in a Week 11 contest on the road against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings. In the season-opening loss to Minnesota back on Sept. 8, Odunze caught six of his nine targets for 37 yards and his first touchdown of the year. He went on a four-game touchdown drought before returning to the end zone in last Sunday's win over the Giants, catching six of his 10 targets for 86 yards. Outside of a donut against the Bengals in Week 9, Odunze has been the Bears' most consistent WR, and he leads the team in catches (37), targets (69), receiving yards (559), and touchdowns (six).

Carolina Panthers running back Rico Dowdle (quadriceps) was seen warming up at the portion of practice open to the media, so it looks like he will return to practice on Thursday, according to Alex Zietlow of The Charlotte Observer. Just like last week, Dowdle did not practice on Wednesday before returning to the field the following day. The 27-year-old has been managing a quad issue, but it hasn't kept him from playing and serving as Carolina's unquestioned lead back. He will likely be limited on Thursday, but as long as he upgrades to full on Friday (like he did last week), he should be good to go for Sunday's divisional game against the hosting Atlanta Falcons. Dowdle has been the RB10 this year in half-PPR scoring with 788 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 149 carries while also adding 18 catches for 142 yards and a score. He's a must-start in fantasy if he's active in Week 11.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Thursday that kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) has been ruled out for the Week 11 divisional game on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle. Fairbairn injured his quad in the Week 9 loss to the Denver Broncos and will now miss a second straight game. The Texans have a quick turnaround next week with a game on Thursday night against the Buffalo Bills, so it's possible the 31-year-old veteran won't be ready for that one, either. Matthew Wright filled in for Fairbairn in the Week 10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and made his only field-goal attempt and his only extra-point try in the 36-29 victory. The 29-year-old should be in store for a better day in a cushy matchup against the Titans this weekend, but at best, he's a deep-league streaming option at the kicking position in fantasy.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (illness) returned to practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session due to illness. London is in the middle of another big season as the Falcons' top receiving target. London's 53 receptions for 691 yards and six touchdowns lead the team, and highlight an offense built around explosive playmakers at each position. The Falcons face off against the Carolina Panthers in Week 11. In their last meeting, the defense held London to just five catches for 55 yards in one of his toughest matchups of the season. Look for quarterback Michael Penix to target him early and keep him involved this week.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) has officially been ruled out for the team's Week 11 matchup with the Tennessee Titans. Stroud suffered the injury when sliding in a Week 9 matchup with the Denver Broncos. Davis Mills will once again lead the offense as they face off with a Titans team they defeated 26-0 earlier this season. Mills leaned heavily on Nico Collins and Dalton Schultz (shoulder) last week, but Schultz could be in danger of missing this weekend's game, as he has yet to practice this week. Another name to watch in Week 11 is rookie Jayden Higgins, who hauled in five receptions for 42 yards and a touchdown last week.

From RotoBaller

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills is likely to start again as C.J. Stroud (concussion) remains out of practice in concussion protocol. Mills was dynamic in the win over the Jaguars last week, completing 60% of his passes for 292 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Mills leaned heavily on Nico Collins (15 targets) and Dalton Schultz (11 targets) in the passing game. Head coach DeMeco Ryans clearly trusts Mills to make plays, which has been rewarded early. For teams in need of bye week help, Mills is an excellent option on the waiver wire heading into Week 11.
