Fantasy News

Amari Cooper has been placed on the COVID-19 list.

Cooper won’t play on Sunday in a huge matchup versus the Chiefs, and this news also puts him in danger of missing the Thanksgiving game against Las Vegas. Dallas fortunately has Michael Gallup back in the lineup, and he should be picked up in all leagues and will draw WR2 consideration this week, while Tony Pollard should also see his value increase with Cooper out. Hopefully this doesn’t turn into a bigger issue for the Cowboys, who will have three games in 12 days starting on Sunday.

Jamaal Williams (thigh) is questionable for Week 11.

Williams practiced on a limited basis all week, so there is hope that he will be able to return this weekend. If so, the veteran should see a decent workload with Jared Goff (doubtful) and based on how much the Lions ran last week when Dan Campbell took over play-calling duties.

Jared Goff (oblique) is doubtful for Week 11.

Goff hasn’t practiced all week, so Tim Boyle is expected to draw the start for Detroit as the hope to pick up their first win of the season. This news is a further boost to the Cleveland D/ST this week for anyone starting them, and hopefully the Lions are able to get Goff back in the lineup for Thanksgiving.

Elijah Mitchell (finger) is doubtful for Week 11.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan had been making it as if Mitchell would end up playing this week, but he likely won’t be able to following finger surgery, which sets up Jeff Wilson Jr. to start, and he could handle a significant workload against Jacksonville. Also, third-round pick Trey Sermon could see his first offensive action since Week 5, and he’s worth a speculative add in case he impresses this weekend. Consider Wilson Jr. a strong RB2 option if Mitchell is indeed out.

Allen Robinson (hamstring) is officially doubtful for Week 11.

This is a surprise coming off of the bye week, but it looks like Robinson will be out for Sunday against the Ravens. His status will be official 90 minutes before kickoff on Sunday, but don’t count on having Robinson as an option for Week 11 fantasy lineups.

Curtis Samuel (groin) is officially listed as questionable for Week 11.

Samuel was able to return to practice on a limited basis to end this week, and we’ll see if he can give it a go against his former team on Sunday. It might be an uphill climb for Samuel to play following just one practice after missing so much time.

Cam Newton will officially start in Week 11.

This was fully expected, and Panthers head coach Matt Rhule just confirmed the news. P.J. Walker might still work in with the Carolina offense given that Newton probably does not have the full playbook down yet, but expect at or close to full playing time for Newton this Sunday against Washington. Newton scored two quick touchdowns (one rushing, one passing) in limited action in in his first game back with the Panthers last week.
