DaeSean Hamilton (knee) has been officially ruled out for Week 8.

Hamilton is considered week-to-week while dealing with his knee sprain. Hopefully the rookie receiver is feeling better soon so he’s able to get back on the field.

Royce Freeman (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 8.

Freeman didn’t practice this week, so this isn’t a surprise. However, there were conflicting reports and discussion about the exact severity of the rookie running back’s injury, and it looks like it might be the high-ankle sprain that was initially reported. Anyway, this will be Freeman’s first career game missed, and Phillip Lindsay should be in line for a heavy workload against the Chiefs. Devontae Booker also might be more snaps and opportunities as a runner with Freeman out. We’ll see if Freeman is able to play next week ahead of Denver’s Week 10 bye week.

Paul Richardson (shoulder/knee) is listed as questionable for Week 8.

Richardson is fully expected to play on Sunday against the Giants, but his status won’t be certain until 11:30 AM ET on Sunday when the actives and inactives are released. Richardson being active would be give the Redskins a solid real-life boost on offense.

Chris Thompson (rib/knee) is officially questionable for Sunday’s game.

Thompson is likely a true game-time decision against the Giants, so check back in on his status at 11:30 AM ET on Sunday. If active, Thompson would be in the FLEX conversation as one of Alex Smith’s top targets.

Jamison Crowder (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 8.

This is Crowder’s second straight missed game, and it’s not a good sign that he was ruled out ahead of the weekend. Consider Crowder week-to-week for now, and he doesn’t need to be owned in standard-sized fantasy leagues.

Torrey Smith (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday against the Ravens.

Smith was off the fantasy radar despite his clutch catch in Carolina’s Week 7 win at Philadelphia. This could mean more snaps for Curtis Samuel and D.J. Moore alongside with clear No. 1 receiver Devin Funchess. Hopefully Smith’s knee doesn’t keep him out for much longer than this week.

10/26/18 - 01:14 PM ET

Robby Anderson (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Week 8.

Anderson’s ankle sprain is relatively serious, so he’s unlikely to play this weekend. The Jets have dealt with a ton of injuries at receiver this season, which is unideal for a rookie quarterback. Anderson will likely be ruled out on Sunday, so be sure to go in a different direction for your fantasy lineup.
