8 hours agoNew Orleans Saints linebacker Peter Werner (hand) is expected to be active on Sunday for the Week 11 contest versus the visiting Cleveland Browns, according to a source. Werner picked up a questionable tag for this weekend's game due to a hand injury that he suffered in the Week 10 win over the division-rival Atlanta Falcons. The 26-year-old was unable to practice on Wednesday or Thursday before being limited on Friday. Barring a setback during pre-game warmups, he should be available on Sunday, which is good news for a Saints defense facing a Browns offense coming off their bye week. Werner has not been on the IDP fantasy radar in 2024 while recording 43 tackles (28 solo) and one pass breakup in seven starts in his fourth year with the Saints. Against a porous Browns offensive line, the Saints defense/special teams unit is definitely on the streaming radar in Week 11.

8 hours agoBaltimore Ravens running back
Justice Hill has struggled to produce over the last few weeks. The 27-year-old had a couple big fantasy performances, but has mostly been quiet this season. Hill has been barely involved in the rushing game, so his best chance to do damage is in the receiving game. Fellow back
Keaton Mitchell figures to be in the mix for the Week 11 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It's hard to imagine Hill having a significant role in the offense with
Derrick Henry healthy. Hill is still worth stashing in certain formats, but won't be a starting option for Week 11.

8 hours agoKansas City Chiefs running back
Isiah Pacheco (leg) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Pacheco continues to work his way back from a broken leg he suffered in Week 2. He was limited in practice this week, so it sounds like he's trending in the right direction. The expectation is that Pacheco will return in Week 12 against the Carolina Panthers. This would give the young back a plus matchup for his first game back on the field. It's uncertain if the team plans to put him on a snap count if he plays next week. Until then,
Kareem Hunt will continue being the lead back in KC for at least one more week.

9 hours agoTennessee Titans wide receiver
Tyler Boyd (back) appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Boyd was a late addition to the injury report as he was added on Saturday due to a back issue. It sounds like the organization is hopeful that Boyd can play, but he hasn't done much on the field lately anyway. Boyd hasn't drawn a target since Week 8 and is barely on the fantasy radar for Week 11. If he sits,
Calvin Ridley and
Nick Westbrook-Ikhine would see more involvement in the offense on Sunday.

9 hours agoThe Dallas Cowboys' defense has been one of the worst units in the league this season, even after getting linebacker Micah Parsons back last week. They surrendered 34 points to Philadelphia last week and are averaging 34.5 points given up per game in the previous four games. They play Houston on Monday night in what is a perfect get-right game for an offense that is getting healthy with receiver
Nico Collins expected to return to action. Even after stuffing the stat sheet with five sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception last week, the Dallas defense should be avoided until proven otherwise.

9 hours agoDallas Cowboys kicker
Brandon Aubrey has taken a value hit after his hot start to the season given the current state of the offense without quarterback
Dak Prescott (hamstring). Aubrey's chances to score points are limited with the offense's recent struggles, and that should not change ahead of Monday night's matchup with the Houston Texans. He drilled two field goals last week against Philadelphia, scoring the Cowboys' only points in the game. Look elsewhere for a kicker in Week 11 given Aubrey's low ceiling.

9 hours agoDallas Cowboys wide receiver
Jonathan Mingo is set to make his debut on Monday night against the Houston Texans. The second-year receiver was acquired from Carolina at the trade deadline. With
CeeDee Lamb (back) listed as questionable, Mingo could see a larger role than he would typically have this week. Houston's defense is susceptible to receivers, although with the uncanny situation in Dallas there are not many intriguing options from a fantasy standpoint. Mingo should not be on the fantasy radar, although his usage on Monday night should be monitored.

9 hours agoJacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson appears to be on the hot seat after a horrendous start to the season. The Jaguars are 2-8 heading into a tough matchup against the Detroit Lions in Week 11. It sounds like another loss on Sunday could mean Pederson is let go from his coaching duties. The Jaguars have a bye week after playing the Lions, so in theory that would be the best time to make a change if they were going to do it midseason. Nothing seems to be going right in Jacksonville, and they're double-digit underdogs for Sunday's game against the Lions. To be fair, quarterback
Mac Jones is under center for
Trevor Lawrence (shoulder), but the team has played poorly all year.

9 hours agoDallas Cowboys running back
Ezekiel Elliott has been a non-factor from a fantasy standpoint in 2024, and that should not change ahead of Monday night's matchup with the Houston Texans. Head coach Mike McCarthy stated earlier this week that the backfield is no longer a committee with
Rico Dowdle operating as the main back. This should result in even less touches for Elliott, who was already averaging just 7.6 touches per game. In an inefficient Dallas offense, Elliott is not a fantasy option this week.

9 hours agoDallas Cowboys quarterback
Cooper Rush is entrenched as the starter for another week heading into Monday night's matchup with the Houston Texans. It is a mid-range matchup, as Houston ranks 19th against opposing quarterbacks, but Rush grades as a QB3 given how inefficient he has been this season and the potential of
Trey Lance replacing him at any given moment. Rush was a full participant in practice all week with a neck injury. It is also worth noting that
CeeDee Lamb (back) popped up on Saturday's injury report. While Mike McCarthy noted that Lamb's injury should not impact his game status, he still has a questionable tag which further downgrades Rush's outlook for Week 11.

9 hours agoDallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (illness) was uncertain coming into this game, but has been removed from the injury report after getting in a full practice session on Friday. Fantasy managers might be hesitant to start Ferguson during this Week 11 matchup against the Houston Texans. The entire Cowboys offense has taken a hit with quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) being done for the season. Last week, Ferguson hauled in four of his five targets for 24 yards in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Cooper Rush hasn't looked good under center, so Ferguson shouldn't be considered anything more than a TE2.

9 hours agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver
Calvin Austin III saw a season-high six targets during last week's win over the Washington Commanders. Sadly, Austin was only able to haul in two of those six targets for 20 yards. It was nice to see Austin getting more targets in the offense, but that might not remain the case for long. Newly acquired wideout
Mike Williams figures to have a bigger role in Week 11 after making his team debut last week. Austin has struggled throughout most of the season, so fantasy managers shouldn't take the risk and keep him on the bench until he gives reason to start him.
--Andy Webb - RotoBallerSource: ESPN
9 hours agoHouston Texans wide receiver
John Metchie III put together his best game of his career during last week's loss to the Detroit Lions. Metchie hauled in five of his six targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in the three-point loss. The 23-year-old recorded a career-high in both receptions and receiving yards during this game. However, Metchie is likely to see a smaller role in the offense with
Nico Collins (hamstring) returning for Monday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. The return of Collins means that Metchie will fall to third in the pecking order. Metchie was barely involved all season until last week, so fantasy managers shouldn't count on another strong performance in Week 11.

10 hours agoMiami Dolphins kicker
Jason Sanders is coming off his best performance of the season. Last week, Sanders knocked down all three field goal attempts, including a 50-yard kick in the win over the Los Angeles Rams. He also connected on both extra point attempts in what was a busy day for the veteran kicker. Sanders will once again have a plus matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11. The Dolphins should have little issues moving the ball against the Raiders defense which should give Sanders plenty of chances. Fantasy managers in need of a kicker should take a look at Sanders this weekend.
--Andy Webb - RotoBallerSource: ESPN
10 hours agoDallas Cowboys wide receiver
Jalen Tolbert has been quiet on the field over the last few weeks. The loss of quarterback
Dak Prescott (hamstring) has downgraded this entire offensive unit. Last week, Tolbert hauled in three of his five targets for 14 yards in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It's worth noting that Tolbert has seen five or more targets in four of his last five games. His involvement in the offense should remain steady especially with
CeeDee Lamb (back) banged up heading into Monday's game against the Houston Texans. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from Tolbert with
Cooper Rush under center for Dallas. Tolbert should be viewed as a low-end flex option for Week 11.
