Kenny Britt (hamstring) is officially inactive against the Jets.

Britt was doubtful for the game, and now he’s officially out. All Browns receivers are difficult to trust right now.

Kenny Golladay is officially out for Week 5.

The rookie receiver was not expected to play, and now it’s official despite there being some optimism when he was ruled out last week. Golladay might not be ready for Week 6 against the Saints, but we’ll update you throughout the week next week.

Wendell Smallwood (knee) is officially inactive for Week 5.

Smallwood didn’t practice all week, so it would’ve been surprising to see him play in the game. LeGarrette Blount and Corey Clement will get most of the carries for the Eagles, with Kenjon Barner also likely to mix in more. Smallwood has until Thursday to get ready for Week 6 versus the Panthers.

Jay Ajayi is not on the Week 5 injury report.

Ajayi didn’t practice yesterday, but he practiced fully on Wednesday and today and he’s ready to go on Sunday against the Titans. After a surprising two weeks of not putting up big numbers, Ajayi will hopefully be fed the ball more this week. You can insert him into your lineup as an RB1.

Marcus Mariota (hamstring) is officially inactive against the Dolphins.

This was the expectation after reports emerged that he was not expected to play in the game, along with the Titans saying throughout the week that they would not rush their franchise quarterback to play and risk him missing more time. Matt Cassel will start against the Dolphins and isn’t a recommended fantasy option, and Titans receivers should get a downgrade with Mariota out. There’s a chance Delanie Walker is heavily targeted by Cassel, and he should still definitely be in the fantasy lineups. Hopefully Mariota is ready for next Monday night against the Colts.

Sammie Coates is off the injury report.

Coates was a full participant in practice today, and he’s ready to go on Sunday against the Jets after missing the last two games. With Kenny Britt (hamstring, doubtful) likely out, Coates could emerge as a top target on the outside for Cleveland. Still, he’s not a recommended fantasy option yet.

Kenny Britt (hamstring) is doubtful for Week 5.

Britt did not practice again today, so it’d be a major shock if Britt played in the game. This injury could lead to him falling totally out of the lineup even when he is healthy.
