Benjamin Watson (knee) is officially questionable for Week 7.

The veteran tight end is expected to play and would be a fine fantasy option against the Dolphins, but be sure to check in tomorrow night to make sure he’s active and safe to insert into lineups.

Wendell Smallwood (knee) is officially questionable for Week 7.

Smallwood was a full partipant all week, so we’d expect him to be ready for the Monday nighter against the Redskins. If active, he’ll probably handle some of the third down work while also working in for some early-down carries. He’d be in the FLEX conversation, but there are probably better options out there.

Tavon Austin gets five touches against the Cardinals.

Austin carried three times for 27 yards and caught two passes (on two targets) for 15 yards. He’s a very good weapon for Sean McVay and the Rams, but Austin simply doesn’t get enough touches each week to be a reliable fantasy option.

49ers get blown out 40-10 in C.J. Beathard’s first career start.

Beathard was 22/38 for 235 yards, but he was able to score a late touchdown on the ground and finished with five attempts for 30 yards and the score. He also lost two fumbles. The third-round pick should have an easier matchup with the Eagles next Sunday, but he’s not a fantasy option as the Niners look for their first win of the season.

Michael Floyd (hamstring) is questionable for Week 7.

Floyd didn’t practice Wednesday or Thursday, but he was able to get in a limited practice today. The team already went ahead and ruled out Stefon Diggs (groin), so perhaps it’s a good sign that Floyd is listed as questionable for the game. He’ll likely be a game-time decision against the Ravens.

Austin Hooper scores in Week 8 win.

Hooper caught four passes for 47 yards and a touchdown, which was a one-yard reception in the first quarter of a 25-20 win. The score was Hooper’s first since the season opener, and he’s still yet to top 50 yards since then. The second-year player is just a TE2 option heading into a matchup with the Panthers next Sunday.

Alfred Morris rushed twice for 15 yards in Sunday’s win over the 49ers.

He also caught a nine-yard pass. Backup Rod Smith saw nine touches for 66 yards, but an easy win allowed Dallas to give him extended playing time. Morris and Darren McFadden are still the handcuffs to own for Ezekiel Elliott.
