Donte Moncrief held to one reception against the Texans.

It went for seven yards. Moncrief just doesn’t put up the same numbers as he does with Andrew Luck under center. He can be dropped with Luck ruled out for the season last week.

Mohamed Sanu scores against the Panthers.

Sanu caught three passes (on three targets) for 23 yards and a touchdown in the Week 9 loss, with the score coming on a quick out route at the goal line. That makes two straight weeks with a touchdown for Sanu, and he’ll try to make it three straight in a potential shootout with the Cowboys in Week 10.

Delanie Walker (ankle) is questionable for Week 9.

Walker practiced on a limited basis today after missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday, so it appears he does have a decent chance of playing Sunday against Baltimore. Expect him to be a game-time decision, and we’ll know by 11:30 AM ET if he’s active or inactive for the game. Be sure to have a backup plan (perhaps Titans rookie tight end Jonnu Smith) if you’re planning on starting Walker in your TE spot.

Trey Burton scores in Week 9.

With Zach Ertz (hamstring) out, Burton played well while getting more work against Denver, catching two of four targets for 41 yards and a touchdown. The score came on a back-shoulder catch near at the goal line for 27 yards—it looked like it might’ve been bobbled, but it was close and ruled a touchdown. Those that plugged in Burton after Ertz was inactive should be happy with the performance. Assuming Ertz is back in Week 11 after the team’s bye week, Burton shouldn’t be on fantasy rosters—though he’ll continue being a key contributor for the Eagles.

Jay Ajayi might not play this weekend against the Broncos.

Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said he isn’t sure if Ajayi will be active for the game. Considering he just arrived with the team after Tuesday’s trade deadline, he’s only had a week of practice to get acclimated to the offense. We expect Ajayi to be active with a limited role, getting time with plays he is comfortable with; but it wouldn’t be surprising to see him inactive for the game. The Eagles play in the early games on Sunday, so we’ll know by 11:30 AM ET if Ajayi is playing versus Denver.

Curtis Samuel handles four touches in 20-17 win over Atlanta.

Samuel rushed once for 14 yards and caught three passes for 23 yards. The rookie saw extended playing time with Kelvin Benjamin traded, and he and Devin Funchess were the only two wide receivers to catch a pass in the win. Carolina should get Samuel more involved down the stretch, including next week against Miami. He’s worth a look in all fantasy leagues.

Ezekiel Elliott will play in Week 9 against the Chiefs after court grants request for administrative stay.

And it continues. It seemed that Elliott’s suspension was perhaps finally going to stick earlier this week, but he’s delayed it once again. Fantasy owners can get him in lineups as a high-end RB1, but this could end up hurting them (and the Cowboys) if Elliott’s six-game suspension begins in Week 10. A three-judge panel will now decide on Elliott’s fate, and it could happen sometime next week. Alfred Morris should remain rostered, but there is a chance Zeke is on the field all season for Dallas.
