The Colts have promoted Erik Swoope to the practice squad.

Swoope has been moving between waivers, the practice squad, and the active roster for Indy, and it looks like he’ll be back up and active tomorrow night against the Patriots. Swoope is not a highly-recommended fantasy option for Week 5.

Marcus Murphy (rib) was a full participant in today’s practice.

Murphy should be ready to go as one of LeSean McCoy’s backups this Sunday against the Titans, but we’ll let you know if anything changes throughout the week. Murphy is not on the fantasy radar right now, though.

DeVante Parker (quadricep) was limited in today’s practice.

Parker was surprisingly inactive because of his quad issue, and Dolphins head coach Adam Gase sounded slightly surprised about it. After one month, Parker has only been able to appear in one game for Miami this season. We’ll monitor his practice status tomorrow and Friday.

Joe Mixon says he will “for sure” be ready for Week 6.

Week 6 is a matchup against the Steelers, but Mixon is also hoping he’ll be ready for this week against the Dolphins. Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis says the “sun is up” and things are looking good for Mixon, so it sounds like he might be ready to go after missing the last two games. We’ll update you with Mixon’s practice status throughout the week.

Randall Cobb (hamstring) is working with the rehab group for today’s practice.

Cobb is trying to get his hamstring right for Sunday against the Lions, but consider him day-to-day for now. It’d be a good sign to see him participate in practice tomorrow or Friday ahead of the weekend.

Geronimo Allison remains in concussion protocol.

Allison is not practicing today, but he still has until Sunday to get cleared from the protocol and play against the Lions. We’ll update you with Allison’s status throughout the week.

Leonard Fournette has been ruled out for Week 5.

The Jaguars could’ve dragged this out to Friday or even Sunday, but there was little doubt Fournette would miss this weekend’s game against the Chiefs. T.J. Yeldon is poised for a heavy workload against one of the worst tackling teams in football, so he’s an RB1/RB2 option in fantasy lineups. Fournette is probably on the doubtful side of things for Week 6 against the Cowboys.
