Terry McLaurin (hamstring) was officially limited in today’s practice.

McLaurin was also limited in practice last week after he suffered the hamstring injury on Thursday. Consider the rookie receiver a toss-up for Week 5 for now, but hopefully he can get up to a full practice tomorrow or Friday.

Vernon Davis (concision) has officially been ruled out for Week 5.

Jordan Reed also remains out with his concussion, so Jeremy Sprinkle is set to lead the team at tight end this Sunday against the Patriots. Consider Davis and Reed week-to-week, as both have had previous concussions in their careers.

Stefon Diggs officially did not practice today.

Diggs’ designation for today is “Not Injury Related”, so it’s unclear why he didn’t practice. Hopefully everything is OK with Diggs, but trade rumors have swirled simply because he posted an emoji on social media yesterday. Barring a trade, we should see Diggs back on the practice field for Minnesota tomorrow.

Terry McLaurin (hamstring) is questionable for Week 5.

The rookie receiver is expected to be a legitimate gametime call for Sunday against the Patriots. The Redskins play in the early games, so McLaurin’s status will be known by 11:30 AM ET on Sunday. McLaurin would be in the FLEX mix if he’s active, but it might be difficult to trust anyone on Washington’s offense against arguably the league’s best defense.

The Panthers placed Chris Hogan on injured reserve.

Hogan is getting a knee scope and can be brought back after eight weeks as a designated-to-return player for Carolina. The veteran receiver caught three passes for 24 yards through the first four games, mostly working as a complimentary piece to Christian McCaffrey, Curtis Samuel, D.J. Moore, and Greg Olsen.

Colt McCoy will start for the Redskins in Week 5.

McCoy is now healthy, and he’s long been a favorite of Redskins head coach Jay Gruden, so this isn’t surprising. The veteran quarterback has made six career starts for Washington, and his experience in Gruden’s offense could help the unit play more consistently. McCoy is not a recommended Week 5 fantasy option facing an elite Patriots defense.

T.Y. Hilton (quad) did not practice today.

Hilton missed last week’s loss to the Raiders, and while he has played through injuries in the past, Indianapolis may decide to simply rest him through their Week 6 bye. We’ll see if T.Y. can practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days, but being the night game on Sunday is obviously less than ideal for fantasy owners.
