We have four more teams on bye in Week 10, but the injury report still has plenty of traffic. We have one particularly noteworthy imminent season debut at quarterback, and noteworthy returns at other positions as well. There is thankfully mostly good health across the board with the exception of receiver, which easily has the most walking wounded of any position group and features some elite fantasy names. Without further ado, let's check on the latest as of Sunday morning:
Week 10 Injuries
Week 10 Preview
Injury Report Update
Quarterbacks
Kyler Murray
Arizona Cardinals QB
|
| Murray does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons after having been activated from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday and practicing in full all week. Murray's first start of 2023 will come exactly 11 months from the date of last season's ACL tear. With head coach Jonathan Gannon having described Murray as already fully healthy two weeks ago, there may be a good chance the star quarterback is near or at full strength versus Atlanta. |
Ryan Tannehill
Tennessee Titans QB
|
| Tannehill (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers after sandwiching two limited practices around a Thursday absence, and as per early Sunday reports, he's trending toward not garnering active status. If Tannehill is unable to go, Malik Willis will serve as the backup to Will Levis, who was named Tennessee's starting quarterback for the rest of the season Tuesday. |
Jaren Hall
Minnesota Vikings QB
|
| Hall (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Saints after missing practice all week. Joshua Dobbs, who led Minnesota to a comeback victory in emergency duty in Week 9 after having been with the team for only five days, will take the reins of the team's offense again versus New Orleans. |
Daniel Jones
New York Giants QB
|
| Jones (knee) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, ending his season. Jones suffered the injury in Week 9 against the Raiders after having just returned from a three-game absence due to a neck issue. With Tyrod Taylor (ribs) also on injured reserve for at least three more games, rookie Tommy DeVito, who went 15 of 20 for 175 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions while adding 17 rushing yards in emergency duty versus Las Vegas, will draw the start Sunday against the Cowboys. |
Running Backs
David Montgomery
Detroit Lions RB
|
| Montgomery is off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers after practicing in full all week following a two-game absence due to a rib injury. What Montgomery's workload will be in his return remains to be seen, as rookie Jahmyr Gibbs turned in a spectacular 26-carry, 152-yard, one-touchdown effort that he complemented with five catches for 37 more yards versus the Raiders in a Week 8 Monday night win before Detroit's Week 9 bye. |
Dameon Pierce
Houston Texans RB
|
| Pierce (ankle) remains out for Sunday's game against the Bengals after missing practice all week. In his absence, Devin Singletary, who logged 13 touches and two receptions while playing on 75% of the snaps in Week 9 against the Buccaneers, is once again expected to helm Houston's ground attack while Mike Boone and Dare Ogunbowale rotate in for complementary snaps. |
James Conner
Arizona Cardinals RB
|
| Conner (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons after practicing in limited fashion all week. As per Saturday reports, Conner is expected to return after being officially activated from injured reserve Saturday, and he should fill his usual lead-back role versus Atlanta with backfield mate Emari Demercado (toe) already ruled out. |
Emari Demercado
Arizona Cardinals RB
|
| Demercado (toe) is out for Sunday's game against the Falcons after missing practice all week. Demercado's absence is expected to be offset by the return of James Conner (knee), who's expected to reclaim his starting role after being activated from injured reserve Saturday. |
Kendre Miller
New Orleans Saints RB
|
| Miller (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Vikings after missing practice all week. Jamaal Williams should continue as Alvin Kamara's sole backup versus Minnesota. |
Keaton Mitchell
Baltimore Ravens RB
|
| Mitchell (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns but managed to work back to a full practice Friday after logging a limited Thursday session. Per early Sunday reports, Mitchell is expected to play. However, if the rookie were to sit out, Justice Hill would potentially be in line for a slight boost in workload behind Gus Edwards. |
Pierre Strong Jr.
Cleveland Browns RB
|
| Strong (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens but finished the week with two limited practices after missing Wednesday's session. If Strong isn't able to suit up, Kareem Hunt should see some extra touches behind Jerome Ford. |
DeeJay Dallas
Seattle Seahawks RB
|
| Dallas (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders but managed to work back to a full practice Friday after missing Wednesday's session and practicing in limited fashion Thursday. If Dallas can't suit up, rookie seventh-round pick Kenny McIntosh (knee), who was just activated from injured reserve Saturday, could be in line to serve as the No. 3 back in what would be his NFL debut, while reserve receiver Jake Bobo could handle Dallas' punt return duties. |
Wide Receivers
Ja'Marr Chase
Cincinnati Bengals WR
|
| Chase (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans but managed to finish the week with consecutive limited practices. As per early Sunday reports, Chase is considered a true "50-50" decision to play, with the receiver apparently still in plenty of pain stemming from a hard fall he took in the Week 9 win over the Bills. If Chase is ultimately unable to go, he'll be joining fellow starter Tee Higgins (hamstring) on the sideline and will thrust Tyler Boyd and likely Trenton Irwin into starting roles while rookie Andrei Iosivas moves into the No. 3 receiver spot. |
Justin Jefferson
Minnesota Vikings WR
|
| Jefferson (hamstring) was not activated Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints, meaning he'll remain out until at least Week 11. The star wideout's ongoing absence will continue to afford Jordan Addison top receiver status versus New Orleans, with K.J. Osborn (concussion) and Brandon Powell in line to serve as the No. 2 and No. 3 wideouts, respectively, if Osborn can suit up. |
Deebo Samuel
San Francisco 49ers WR
|
| Samuel is off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars after practicing in full all week following a two-game absence due to a shoulder injury. San Francisco lost each of the last three games with Samuel available for only eight Week 6 snaps during that span, so his return is likely to see him immediately jump back into the robust, versatile role he filled previously and result in at least a slight hit to Brandon Aiyuk's and George Kittle's targets. |
Tee Higgins
Cincinnati Bengals WR
|
| Higgins (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Texans after missing the last two practices of the week. In the star wideout's absence, Tyler Boyd and Trenton Irwin, who combined for 14 receptions and 99 yards against the Cardinals in Higgins' Week 5 absence due to a rib injury, will be in line to serve as the No. 2 and No. 3 receivers, respectively, at minimum. |
Drake London
Atlanta Falcons WR
|
| London is off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals after finishing the week with two full practices following a Week 9 absence due to a groin injury. With no apparent limitations, London will step back into his usual No. 1 role versus Arizona. |
Nico Collins
Houston Texans WR
|
| Collins (calf) is out for Sunday's game against the Bengals after missing Thursday's and Friday's practices. In his absence, rookie Tank Dell and Noah Brown will enjoy bigger roles, as will Robert Woods if he returns from his foot injury, as appears likely. Tight end Dalton Schultz, who logged 10 receptions against the Buccaneers in Week 9, could also be in line for even more targets than usual. |
Robert Woods
Houston Texans WR
|
| Woods (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals but managed to work back to a full practice Friday after turning in a limited Thursday session. If Woods does return as appears likely, he'll likely reclaim a starting role alongside Tank Dell with Nico Collins (calf) ruled out. |
Curtis Samuel
Washington Commanders WR
|
| Samuel (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after practice in limited fashion all week. As per early Sunday reports, Samuel is expected to play. If he does indeed suit up, the versatile veteran will push Jamison Crowder back into a No. 4 receiver role. |
Mack Hollins
Atlanta Falcons WR
|
| Hollins (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals after missing practice all week. In his absence KhaDarel Hodge should move into the No. 3 role behind starters Drake London and Van Jefferson. |
Zay Jones
Jacksonville Jaguars WR
|
| Jones (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the 49ers despite practicing in limited fashion all week. In his continued absence, Jamal Agnew and Tim Jones should rotate No. 3 receiver snaps behind starters Christian Kirk and Calvin Ridley. |
K.J. Osborn
Minnesota Vikings WR
|
| Osborn (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints but managed to work all the way back to a full practice Friday after starting Week 10 prep with a Wednesday absence. As per early Sunday reports, Osborn has cleared concussion protocol after exiting the Week 9 win over the Falcons on a cart due to the head injury, but the team still wants to evaluate him in pregame warmups before a final decision is made. If Osborn were unable to play, Brandon Powell could move into the No. 2 receiver role, while Jalen Nailor and Trishton Jackson would presumably assume bigger roles behind him. |
Trey Palmer
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR
|
| Palmer (neck) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans but managed to turn in a full practice Friday after opening the week with a limited session Wednesday and a Thursday absence. If Palmer can't suit up, Deven Thompkins and Rakim Jarrett could rotate No. 3 receiver snaps behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin versus Tennessee. |
Michael Wilson
Arizona Cardinals WR
|
| Wilson (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns after practicing in limited fashion all week. If Wilson can't play, Rondale Moore would remain in the No. 2 receiver role in Kyler Murray's season debut. |
Treylon Burks
Tennessee Titans WR
|
| Burks (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers after missing practice all week. In his absence, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is likely to fill the No. 2 receiver role versus Tampa Bay, although Chris Moore and Kyle Philips should also be beneficiaries. |
KaVontae Turpin
Dallas Cowboys WR
|
| Turpin (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants after missing practice all week. As per early Sunday reports, Turpin is unlikely to play, but a decision may not be made until pregame warmups. If he does sit out, Jalen Brooks would likely garner active status as the No. 5 receiver, and fellow rookie Deuce Vaughn could also be in uniform as Dallas' kickoff and punt returner. |
Marquise Goodwin
Cleveland Browns WR
|
| Goodwin (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against the Ravens after missing practice all week. In his absence, James Proche is likely to serve as Cleveland's No. 4 receiver against Baltimore. |
Donovan Peoples-Jones
Detroit Lions WR
|
| Peoples-Jones (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers after practicing in limited fashion the last two days of the week. |
Parris Campbell
New York Giants WR
|
| Campbell (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys after practicing in limited fashion all week. |
Tight Ends
T.J. Hockenson
Minnesota Vikings TE
|
| Hockenson (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints after practicing in limited fashion all week. As per early Sunday morning reports, Hockenson is expected to play. If he were to reverse course, Josh Oliver and Johnny Mundt would be in line to handle Minnesota's tight end duties versus New Orleans, while plenty of extra targets would be available for the likes of Alexander Mattison, Jordan Addison and other complementary receivers. |
Colby Parkinson
Seattle Seahawks TE
|
| Parkinson (biceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders but worked his way from a Wednesday absence to a full practice by Friday. If Parkinson can't play, Will Dissly could enjoy a slightly larger role alongside Noah Fant. |
Brevin Jordan
Houston Texans TE
|
| Jordan (foot) is out for Sunday's game against the Bengals after missing practice all week. In his absence, veteran Eric Saubert will serve as Dalton Schultz's backup versus Cincinnati. |
Kickers
Ka'imi Fairbairn
Houston Texans K
|
| Fairbairn (quadriceps) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, sidelining him for the next four games at minimum. Third-year pro Matt Ammendola, who's converted 69.2 percent of his 26 field-goal attempts and 86.4 percent of his 22 extra-point tries across 15 career games, will serve as Houston's placekicker Sunday against the Bengals. |
