Fantasy News

Matthew Stafford (hip/back) officially did not practice today.

It’s only Wednesday, and the next two days should five a better indication of where Stafford is at for Week 11. For now, the veteran quarterback’s status is up in the air for Sunday against the Cowboys.

Ricky Seals-Jones (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 11.

Head coach Freddie Kitchens said that RSJ will be a game-time decision, but even if he suits up, Demetrius Harris looks like the preferred play at the position. We’ll know Seals-Jones’ status tomorrow night.

Ryan Switzer (back) has been ruled out for Week 11.

Switzer hasn’t seen an offensive touch since Week 6, so this doesn’t change things much for Pittsburgh from a fantasy perspective. James Washington and Diontae Johnson should both be worth a look behind JuJu Smith-Schuster.

Devin Funchess (clavicle) is returning to practice.

Funchess is now a designated-to-return player for the Colts, and the team will have three weeks to activate him to the 53-man roster or keep him on injured reserve for the rest of the year. The big receiver is now fully expected to return for Indy this season, and he could be a nice boost for an injured receiving corps. Funchess’ touchdown potential makes him worth keeping an eye on in fantasy leagues, but he’s not a must pickup yet.

A.J. Green (ankle) is considered day-to-day.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor calls his star receiver day-to-day, but it’s probably more of a week-to-week situation after Green’s setback last week. Green is said to be back in rehab mode, so he’s again trying to strengthen the ankle so he can get onto the field in 2019. If you’ve held Green for this long, you might as well keep him on your bench and hope he can play before season’s end. We’ll update you if he’s able to return to practice tomorrow or Friday.

Austin Hooper (knee) is expected to miss around a month, according to Ian Rapoport.

There was hope that Hooper wouldn’t miss too much time with his MCL injury, but this news knocks him out into the fantasy playoffs—making the thinnest position in the league even thinner. The loaded Atlanta offense is now basically down to Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley with Devonta Freeman (foot) out for a couple of weeks and Mohamed Sanu in New England, but Brian Hill and Russell Gage should both see a boost in the short term. At tight end, Luke Stocker won’t be a highly recommended play, and you should hold onto Hooper if you can in redraft leagues.

John Ross (shoulder) has been cleared to practice.

Ross is officially a designated-to-return player off injured reserve, and he can practice with the team for three weeks before he must be activated ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Browns to play again this season. So the dynamic receiver is eligible to return for that Week 13 game, which will be after the required eight missed games while on injured reserve. Ross was off to a strong start in Zac Taylor’s offense, and he’s worth a look as a potent big-play threat in deeper leagues in particular.
