Phillip Lindsay will return in Week 5.

Lindsay doesn’t carry an injury designation for Monday‘s game, so he will be back as the 1B to Melvin Gordon in Denver’s backfield. That said, fantasy owners might be wise to look elsewhere if possible for his first game back.

Drew Lock (shoulder) is questionable for Week 5.

The opponent (New England) and changed date (Monday) probably won’t have many relying on Lock this week, but his status isn’t expected to be known until inactives are announced on Monday afternoon.

Noah Fant (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 5.

Fant is considered week-to-week, so he maybe end up missing multiple games with his ankle injury. The Broncos will likely lean mostly on Jake Butt at tight end, though he’s not a recommended fantasy plays against the Patriots.

Jared Cook (groin) is officially listed as questionable for Week 5.

Cook looks like a game-time call, so be sure to have a backup option from Monday or Tuesday if you want to use the veteran tight end in your fantasy lineup.

Michael Thomas (ankle) is officially questionable for Week 5.

Thomas still has not practiced fully, so he presumably still has to make some progress for the team to clear him for action on Monday night. It’s a risk to insert Thomas into fantasy lineups without a backup option from Monday or Tuesday.

The 49ers activated Kevin White.

White will make his team debut on Sunday, and while the former first-round pick isn’t a recommended fantasy option, it will be good to see him get a shot.

The Jets have released Josh Malone.

Malone saw limited offensive snaps despite all the injuries for New York, so this doesn’t change the passing attack much from a fantasy perspective. Jamison Crowder and Jeff Smith project to be the top receivers for Joe Flacco on Sunday.
