The Los Angeles Rams have reached out to other teams about trading eighth-year WR Cooper Kupp. They are hopeful for a second-round pick in return. (Source: Dianna Russini on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Kupp has not returned since Week 2 as he's been dealing with an ankle injury, and at 2-4, the Rams appear to be sellers headed into the trade deadline. It will be interesting to see if and where he will get traded, how that will impact that team's WR room, and how it will impact WR Puka Nacua's target share once he returns.

The Buccaneers' D/ST logged two sacks and a fumble recovery while allowing 41 points in a loss to the Ravens on Monday night.
Fantasy Impact: Tampa Bay's defense looked pretty solid to start the game, but over the second half especially, they imploded. Baltimore dominated them and scored 41 points on the night, and the Bucs' defense wasn't able to make many big plays to shift the momentum of the game. This unit shouldn't be rostered in most fantasy leagues with tough matchups against the Falcons and Chiefs coming up in the next couple of weeks.

Chase McLaughlin made both of his extra points attempts but only went 1-of-2 on his field goal attempts in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: McLaughlin had a rough fantasy outing with only five points on Monday, but to make matters worse, he also missed a field goal at one point in the game. He's inconsistent and will likely continue to be an iffy fantasy option for the foreseeable future.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said the shoulder injury Donte Jackson is dealing with is minor. (Source: Brooke Pryor on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Jackson could be limited in practice, but it is not expected to impact his game status for Monday night against the Giants.

Trey Palmer caught 1-of-3 targets for 16 yards in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: Palmer didn't do much on Monday night. He caught just one pass for 16 yards, and the team wasn't really making strong efforts to get him the ball. They might be forced to moving forward, however, with Chris Godwin (ankle) set to miss a significant period of time and Mike Evans (hamstring) likely needing some time to recover moving forward.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Cordarrelle Patterson could return in Week 8 against the Giants. (Source: Dale Lolley on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Patterson has been sidelined since Week 4 for Pittsburgh. If he returns, he could take away some touches from Jaylen Warren.

Jalen McMillan caught 3-of-8 targets for 15 yards in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: The rookie was disappointing on Monday night. He saw a lot of opportunities with eight targets over the course of the night, but he was only able to bring in three of them for a total of 15 yards. Still, it's encouraging to see this kind of involvement from him, and McMillan should continue to see a lot of work with Chris Godwin (ankle) and Mike Evans (hamstring) now injured for the Buccaneers.

Montravius Adams has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Giants. (Source: Dale Lolley on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: It is not a great sign for Adams for his future status that he was ruled out so early in the week. He'll miss at least one more game next Monday.

Sterling Shepard caught just one pass for 15 yards in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: The veteran didn't have a good game on Monday. He caught just one pass in the team's loss to the Ravens, and Tampa Bay didn't make much of an effort to get him the ball at all. He could play a bigger role moving forward with the Buccaneers' receiving core suffering multiple significant injuries on Monday night.

Cade Otton caught 8-of-10 targets for 100 yards in Monday night's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: Otton had by far his most productive game of the season on Monday night. He was targeted ten times and was able to turn that into a team-high 100 receiving yards. His stock is shooting up with the injury news surrounding Chris Godwin (ankle) and Mike Evans (hamstring), and he could be a very solid starter at the tight end position if he takes advantage of his increased role on Tampa Bay's offense.

Rachaad White rushed the ball ten times for 40 yards and caught six passes for 71 yards and two touchdowns in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: White finally had a dominant game on Monday night after an underwhelming start to the season. He led the team in rushing yards and was dominant as a receiver, and he was one of the big reasons why Tampa Bay was able to keep the game competitive with Baltimore in the first place. His fantasy stock is set to continue to go up over the next few weeks, with Chris Godwin (ankle) set to miss serious time and Mike Evans (hamstring) expected to miss a bit of time at least.

Bucky Irving rushed the ball nine times for 23 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for 54 yards in Monday's 41-31 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: The rookie played pretty well on Monday night. His yardage total and efficiency on the ground was underwhelming, but he was able to make up for that with a rushing touchdown and over 50 yards through the air. He has been phenomenal lately and could see more work moving forward with Chris Godwin (ankle) and Mike Evans (hamstring) both set to miss time.

Micah Parsons is expected to be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the 49ers. (Source: ProFootballTalk on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Parsons is looking to avoid missing a third straight game. It is unclear if he'll be at full strength if he does play. His status is worth monitoring the rest of the week.
