Hunter Henry (leg) is officially active for Sunday night.

After missing the last four games with a tibia plateau fracture, Henry is back for the Chargers on the short end of his four-to-six-week timetable. Henry will give the Chargers offense a nice boost for a team that’s dealt with more bad injury luck this season. Henry is immediately a TE1 option for his first game back, and he should be picked up in any leagues he’s still available in.

T.J. Hockenson (concussion) was a full participant in today’s practice.

This is a great sign, as Hockenson is making progress through concussion protocol and should be close to full clearance. The rookie tight end’s official Week 6 status will be revealed tomorrow.

Julian Edelman (chest) is officially questionable for Week 6.

Edelman played through the injury last week and found the end zone, but while he’s expected to play on Thursday night, his status cannot be taken for granted on a short week. Fortunately, fantasy owners would have plenty of time to find a replacement if Edelman is a surprise inactive tomorrow evening.

Tyrell Williams (foot) officially did not practice today.

At today’s press conference, an obviously frustrated Gruden said that they believe Williams has plantar fasciitis and that “it’s not getting much better.” The fact that the Raiders have not yet placed Williams on injured reserve or said that he’s going to miss an extended period of time is probably a good sign, but he’s looking unlikely to play in Week 7, and plantar fasciitis injuries can lead to a lengthy absence. We’ll let you know if Williams is able to hit the practice field tomorrow or Friday.

Emmanuel Sanders (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of today’s game.

It’s unclear when Sanders was hurt, but he’s been ruled out to start the second quarter of the Broncos’ game against the Titans. Being ruled out already obviously isn’t a good sign, and now we just have to hope this isn’t a serious injury that’ll keep the veteran receiver out for an extended period of time. Second-year receiver DaeSean Hamilton will have a bigger role during Sanders’ absence.

Mason Rudolph (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 6.

Rudolph was surprisingly looking questionable after getting back on the field this week, but the Steelers are ruling him out ahead of the weekend. The second-year quarterback will hopefully be 100% healed following Pittsburgh’s Week 7 bye.

Rex Burkhead (foot) is questionable for Week 6.

Burkhead didn’t play in Week 5, and the team may also hold him out on Thursday night if he’s not 100% healthy. The veteran won’t be a highly recommended fantasy option if he’s active in a game New England should handle.
