Bengals #2 RB Samaje Perine claimed 3 of QB Joe Burrow's 4 TD passes in Sunday's win over the Steelers. The 1st came before Joe Mixon left with a concussion, but the other 2 followed his 2nd-quarter departure. Perine caught 4 passes for 52 yards in all. He also led an inefficient run game, carrying 11 times or 30 yards (2.7 per rush). Mixon also averaged just 2.9 yards per carry on his 7 attempts before leaving. Mixon's injury gives Perine a pretty good chance at starting Week 12. Unfortunately for him, that will come against the league's top run defense (Titans).

Broncos EDGE Baron Browning (hip) is active for today's game against the Raiders.

The Lions have downgraded WR Josh Reynolds (back) to out for Sunday's game against the Giants. We were already betting Reynolds wouldn't be active, so this change doesn't alter anyone's fantasy football outlook for Week 11.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Giants. He only got in a limited practice on Thursday, so we wouldn’t bet on him playing.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. We'll see if he can make it back for this weekend's game against the Giants, but he shouldn't be in your Week 11 fantasy plans.

Broncos WR K.J. Hamler will miss the "next few weeks" with his hamstring injury, HC Nathaniel Hackett said Wednesday. Hamler has not been able to stay healthy as a pro, appearing in just 23 games over the past 3 seasons. He's not worth a roster spot in redraft leagues -- and his dynasty value is fading fast.

The Broncos have downgraded S Justin Simmons (knee) to out for today's game against the Titans. P.J. Locke looks like the next man up, with S Caden Sterns on IR. Locke -- in his 3rd season -- has never started an NFL game and thus doesn't make for a terrific IDP option this week.

Broncos S Justin Simons (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. He missed Wednesday's practice before returning for 2 limited days. We'll see about his status Sunday morning. Denver ruled EDGE Baron Browning (hip) out for the game.

Broncos WR K.J. Hamler (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Titans. He’s averaged 3.0 targets over Denver’s last 4 games, so there’s minimal fantasy impact here.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. Kalif Raymond and Tom Kennedy will again serve as Detroit’s #2 and #3 WRs.

Broncos WR K.J. Hamler (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Hamler is now looking unlikely to play vs. the Titans this weekend, which would leave behind a few extra targets for Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton and Greg Dulcich.

Broncos S Justin Simmons (knee) and EDGE Baron Browning (hip) missed Wednesday's practice, though each was reportedly working on a side field. HC Nathaniel Hackett deemed each player day-to-day afterward, though it's never a good sign to miss the 1st practice coming out of a bye week. EDGE Randy Gregory also worked on a side field but remains on IR. He has been out since Week 4 with a knee injury. "We're going to start working him in, and we're hoping he gets back sooner rather than later," Hackett said, according to the team website. "He's really doing well in the rehab room."

Broncos WR K.J. Hamler (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. It's a new injury coming off the bye week. We'll keep an eye on Hamler over the next few days, but he shouldn't be in your Week 10 fantasy plans.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) did not practice on Wednesday. His absence this weekend would again leave Kalif Raymond as Detroit's #2 WR vs. the Bears.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Packers. It’ll be WRs Kalif Raymond and Tom Kennedy behind Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) put in a full practice on Saturday and isn't listed on the final injury report. He'll be back for Monday night's game vs. the Ravens after missing the previous 2 weeks. Trautman isn't a fantasy option but does put a slight dent in TE Juwan Johnson's outlook.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) is listed as doubtful for this weekend’s game vs. the Packers after missing practice on Thursday and Friday. With WR D.J. Chark (ankle) on IR, Detroit is down to WRs Kalif Raymond and Tom Kennedy behind Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Lions WR Josh Reynolds (back) did not practice on Thursday. It's a step back from his limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see what Reynolds does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report.

Saints TE Adam Trautman (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. If he remains out for this weekend's game vs. the Raiders, TE Juwan Johnson will be a low-end spot-start option in fantasy lineups.

The Dolphins on Monday placed S Brandon Jones on IR for the knee injury that knocked him out of Sunday night's game. HC Mike McDaniel didn't say whether Jones would miss the rest of the season but said he expected to have more info by Wednesday. Eric Rowe is the next man up for Miami.
