We expect to see Hall listed as a full participant on today’s injury report. An update will be provided if that is not the case. Earlier today, Jets OC Frank Reich discussed Hall and Braelon Allen’s expected usage, saying having the two players is “a great problem to have,” referring to the duo as “two No. 1 backs.” That said, Reich added that Hall “is obviously the bell cow,” but the backfield usage will be a “mix” of both players. Jets coach Aaron Glenn will reportedly share his ideal backfield split with Reich, who will work with the position coaches to make it happen. Hall likely belongs in the high-end RB2 tier while Allen remains FLEX-viable.

Barkley is again on track to play through his injuries on game day. The Eagles’ offensive centerpiece totaled 54 scrimmage yards, one catch and one touchdown in the Eagles’ Week 8 loss to the Commanders. He may have trouble solidifying a spot in the RB1 tier, given the state of the Eagles’ offense, but he remains a high-end RB2 at worst, based on talent and usage.

The same is true of Deebo Samuel, who has a calf injury. Evans has been dealing with the Achilles issue for a few weeks. The fact that a Week 8 bye wasn’t enough to get him back on the field suggests this will be something he deals with for potentially the rest of the year. Demarcus Robinson is expected to return from IR this week. Robinson, Christian Kirk, Jordan Watkins, and Brandin Cooks will all be in the mix for starting roles this week.

Kyler Murray suffered a hamstring injury in Week 8, but even Schefter alluded to the idea that this would be a soft benching for Murray. Schefter added that it “looks like there’s a question at the quarterback position” for Minnesota. Healthy or not, it sounds like Wentz is going to be under center versus Buffalo. Wentz made one start earlier in the season while Murray was sidelined with a concussion. He only threw for 133 yards on 19 attempts, but Wentz found the end zone three times. Murray hasn’t thrown three passing touchdowns in a game since the end of the 2024 season. Wentz’s gunslinging style will likely be a win for fantasy managers hoping to get more out of Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, especially in a potential shootout with the Bills.

Per head coach DeMeco Ryans, Montgomery remains week-to-week. He did not practice today and we assume he won’t get on the field in any capacity this week. Woody Marks will make another start. Facing a down-horrific Chargers squad, Marks should finally get going after two underwhelming starts in Montgomery’s absence. He is a locked-in RB2 for Week 9.

Schefter adds that this trade will not be completed in time for Brissett to play in Week 9’s Thursday Night Football game for the Ravens, but he will make his debut in Week 10 against the Chargers. Brissett’s impending arrival in Baltimore immediately stabilizes the pass-catching corps’ fantasy value. The trade compensation has not yet been revealed, but we expect to know more soon.

Tyson aggravated his nagging hamstring late in the offseason and was placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 1. He will practice for the first time today. NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill said it’s possible Tyson plays this week, though he immediately mentioned a potential snap count for the rookie. The Saints likely want to ramp Tyson up slowly to avoid another setback. He was limited in Wednesday’s session. Tyson should be stashed in every fantasy format, but managers can’t count on him as even a FLEX play for at least one more week.

Milton, 26, has spent time with three different teams since the Patriots drafted him in the 2024 NFL Draft’s sixth round. He is a towering, mobile, cannon-armed quarterback with enticing traits. His erratic play can also be frustrating. Milton can be added in two-quarterback leagues, though his range of potential outcomes in his first start is extremely wide. He replaces Tanner McKee after a three-game starting stint.

Per Macdonald, Darnold also suffered a rib injury early in the team’s Week 8 loss to the Bears, though that doesn’t appear to be the reason he’s out this week. Darnold is considered week-to-week. Per Macdonald, he won’t go on injured reserve. It’s possible this quad issue is related to the glute issue that sidelined Darnold earlier in the season. Either way, Darnold’s health concerns are now becoming an issue for a Seahawks team that was already struggling to live up to the hype. Drew Lock will draw the start versus Arizona this week. He’ll likely start in Week 10 as well. With two successful appearances under his belt this year, Lock is a somewhat safe QB2 bet for Superflex managers.

Tuten did not practice on Tuesday. Coen told reporters he would get in a limited session today. Tuten himself told Coen he feels better today and he toughed it out through the injury on Sunday. He appears to be on the right side of questionable for Thursday’s contest, but fantasy managers will want to check inactives before kickoff to be sure. If he can’t go, Chris Rodriguez will get the bulk of the carries for the Jags.
