Fantasy Impact: McCaffrey remained limited at practice on Thursday. It is possible he is still eased back to some extent, but he should be in fantasy lineups.

Fantasy Impact: Evans will be good to go for Monday's game against the Dolphins as the Rams punter.

Bengals RB Khalil Herbert is officially active for a Week 10 matchup with the Ravens.
Fantasy Impact: Herbert was just recently traded to the Bengals, so there was some uncertainty as to whether or not he would be up to speed with the offense in such a short amount of time. He will likely have a limited role against Baltimore.
Ravens RB Rasheen Ali is officially inactive for Thursday’s game with the Bengals.
Fantasy Impact: Ali was considered questionable due to an ankle injury. With a short week and Keaton Mitchell active, Ali will get some extra time to rest before returning to the Ravens’ backfield.

Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins will not be active for the team's Thursday night divisional showdown while he works through an ongoing quadriceps injury. (Source: Cameron Wolfe on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Higgins has missed multiple games because of his quad injury, last suiting up on Oct. 20; it's unclear how soon he will be able to return as he did not practice all week. He was originally listed as doubtful but now will not play. Hopes are that rookie WR Jermaine Burton will be able to have a role in the offense in Higgins' absence after being a healthy scratch in Week 9 reportedly for disciplinary reasons.

Drake London (hip) logged a limited practice session on Thursday. (Source: New Orleans Saints)
Fantasy Impact: London suffered a hip injury last week and has been limited at both of Atlanta's practice this week as a result. It looks like he's trending towards playing in Week 10, but we won't know for sure until after practice on Friday. Fantasy managers should keep close tabs on his status and on the status of Kyle Pitts (hamstring) heading into the weekend.

Fantasy Impact: Pitts was limited at practice on Thursday. He was on Wednesday as well, and it remains to be seen if this hamstring issue will leave him with an injury designation heading into the weekend. He'll be primed for a lot of targets in the off-chance that Drake London (hip) is unavailable to play on Sunday.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder) did not take part in New Orleans' practice on Thursday. (Source: New Orleans Saints)
Fantasy Impact: To no surprise, Wilson wasn't able to practice on Thursday. He didn't practice on Wednesday either, so his availability for Week 10 isn't looking good. Chris Olave (concussion) is also unlikely to play, so New Orleans will need players like Mason Tipton and Juwan Johnson to step up and play a bigger role on Sunday.

Jamaal Williams (groin) was officially limited at New Orleans' practice on Thursday. (Source: New Orleans Saints)
Fantasy Impact: The veteran was limited at Thursday's practice due to a groin injury. It doesn't seem to be a serious issue, but it leaves him with a day-to-day recovery timeline for the time being. Fantasy managers shouldn't put much weight into his availability against the Falcons.

Tyjae Spears (hamstring) was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Spears has been out for a little while due to a hamstring injury, but it looks like he's going to make his return to the lineup soon. He was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Thursday, so barring any unforeseen setbacks, he should be available to play against the Chargers. He'll be in line for a lot of work if Tony Pollard (foot) is unable to play in Week 10.

Tony Pollard (foot) did not take part in Tennessee's practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Pollard was downgraded to a non-participant at practice on Thursday. He's dealing with a foot injury right now, and the team has already established that they want to be more careful with his workload moving forward. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his participation at practice on Friday to see if he'll play in Week 10 or not.

Nick Vannett (neck) was downgraded to limited at practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Vannett wasn't on the injury report to start the week, but the Titans added him on Thursday as a limited participant. He's dealing with a neck injury right now, and it's unclear if he will be available to play in Week 10 or not. Fantasy managers shouldn't put much weight into his availability against the Chargers.

L'Jarius Sneed (quad) missed Tennessee's practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: As expected, Sneed was unable to practice on Thursday. It's been a while since he has practiced, as he is still battling a mildly serious quad injury. It's unclear when he will be back in the lineup for Tennessee, but until then, their secondary will continue to be weakened without him.

Will Levis (shoulder) was a full participant at practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Levis was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Thursday. He has been battling a shoulder injury for several weeks, but it looks like he's finally over it and may have a chance to return to the field this week. The Titans have yet to name a starter between him and Mason Rudolph for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Tyler Boyd (shoulder) was limited at Tennessee's practice on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Boyd was limited for the second-straight day on Thursday. His shoulder injury doesn't seem to be serious, but the team wants to play it safe with his recovery to ensure that he doesn't aggravate it. It remains to be seen if he will have an injury designation for Week 10.

Julius Chestnut (foot) was added to the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday. (Source: Turron Davenport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Chestnut was added to the injury report on Thursday due to a foot injury. He was a limited participant at practice, and it's unclear if this will have an impact on his availability for Week 10. If he's healthy and active, he could be in line for more work than usual with Tony Pollard (foot) in danger of missing Sunday's game.

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave was not at practice on Thursday as he continues seeking out specialists amid his second confirmed concussion of the 2024 NFL season. (Source: Ross Jackson on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Olave went down after an illegal hit over the middle of the field, and given he suffered a concussion earlier in the season, the team and Olave seem to be slow-playing this one. Instead of rushing him back, Olave is seeking out medical professionals to ensure he makes the right decisions regarding his health. His situation should be monitored to see how long he will remain out.

Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) logged a limited practice session on Thursday. (Source: Washington Commanders on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Robinson is dealing with a hamstring injury right now and has been limited at practice both days this week as a result. We won't know his official Week 10 status until after practice on Friday, but the team seems to be hopeful that he will suit up, which would be bad news for the fantasy value of Austin Ekeler against the Steelers.
Category: Injury Updates
Austin Seibert (hip) was upgraded to limited at practice on Thursday. (Source: Washington Commanders on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Seibert was unable to practice on Wednesday due to a hip injury, but he returned to practice as a limited participant on Thursday. It looks like he's trending the right way for Week 10, which is good news for any fantasy managers of the kicker.

Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) was sidelined at Washington's practice on Thursday. (Source: Washington Commanders on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: Lattimore wasn't able to practice again on Thursday. Washington recently acquired him from the Saints, but it looks like there's a good chance that they will have to wait for him to make his debut for them. Whenever he's healthy, his presence will be a huge boost for Washington's secondary.
