Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed (knee) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Bears. WR Tory Horton should see a boost in playing time but is only in play in single-game daily contests.

Seahawks RBs Jadarian Price (chest) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) are off the final injury report and expected to play vs. the Bears on Monday night, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It'll be Charbonnet's season debut and Price's first game since Week 3. "Now we’re at the stage of the plan where Zach is gonna play, and we have a plan for how much, and what types of plays he’s gonna have, and all that," HC Mike Macdonald said Saturday. It's impossible to know how work will be divvied between Charbonnet, Price, and RB Emanuel Wilson, leaving all 3 as shaky Week 8 fantasy plays.

The Broncos are placing RB RJ Harvey on short-term IR because of the knee injury he suffered in practice this week. That'll knock him out for at least four games, though it doesn't sound like the team expects him to remain out longer than that. The timing helps by giving Harvey extra time via the Week 10 bye. He'll be eligible to return for the Week 13 home date with the Dolphins.

Bears TE Colston Loveland (neck) is off the final Week 8 injury report. He was limited in Friday's practice but back to full participation on Saturday. He should be ready for his usual role vs. the Seahawks on Monday night and sits sixth in our Week 8 TE rankings.

Bears RB Kyle Monangai (thumb, toe) remained sidelined in practice all week and is out for Monday night's game against the Seahawks. RB D'Andre Swift has averaged 15.7 carries and 4.7 targets with Monangai out over the last 3 games. He's a fringe RB1 play in Week 8, despite the matchup with Seattle's ninth-ranked RB defense.

The Patriots have downgraded WR A.J. Brown and RB TreVeyon Henderson to out for Sunday's game at Miami. That's not a shock in either case, given that both players missed practice Thursday and Friday. The absences provide boosts in opportunity upside to RB Rhamondre Stevenson, RB Corey Kiner, and WR Demario Douglas. Before Brown returned for last week's game at Chicago, Douglas supplied receiving lines of 4-65-2 and 7-86-1 the previous two weeks. He becomes an intriguing PPR play against a weak Miami defense. Check our Week 8 rankings for all the adjustments.

The Colts are "open" to trading RB Jonathan Taylor ahead of the November 10 deadline, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. "Multiple teams have reached out to Indianapolis, and those talks are said to be active and ongoing," Schefter adds. Teams believed to be interested in Taylor include the Broncos, Packers, Vikings, Giants, and Seahawks. The price will be high, though. The Ringer's Tom Pelissero reports that the Colts already turned down a 2027 second-round draft pick plus an additional pick for Taylor. We'd still consider him no better than 50/50 to be traded. A move out of Indianapolis would likely help his fantasy value. Taylor would see plenty of volume in his new home, and he'd be getting an upgrade in situation from a mostly dead Colts offense.

The Packers expect to get Edge Micah Parsons back at practice for the first time this season ahead of Week 9, but don't look for him on the field that week. According to multiple reports, Parsons and the team are targeting the Wednesday night game of Week 12 for his return to game action. Parsons tore the ACL and meniscus in his left knee last December.

The Denver Post's Sam Jane reports that Broncos RB R.J. Harvey's knee injury "is not believed to be severe or hold him out long term." We'll see if we get any other details on the injury that Harvey seemingly suffered in Thursday's practice. He's been ruled out for this weekend's game vs. the Chiefs. Denver then gets Carolina in Week 9 before a Week 10 bye. Harvey is worth keeping rostered in most fantasy leagues for now.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. He missed the final two practices of the week. Players rarely miss games with illnesses, but Henderson’s status is worth checking on Sunday morning.

Cowboys WR George Pickens (shoulder, hamstring) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Cardinals. HC Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that he expects Pickens to play. The injuries add some risk to his profile, but Pickens would be very tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against Arizona’s 23rd-ranked WR defense.

Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, and is off the final injury report. HC Mike LaFleur said Friday that Love is "feeling as good as he can feel." It certainly doesn’t sound like he’s all the way back to 100%. Consider the rookie a risk/reward fantasy start in Sunday’s plus matchup against the Cowboys’ league-worst RB defense. RB Tyler Allgeier (toe) only got in two limited practices this week but is off the final injury report.

Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Waddle seemingly has a chance to play in this one but would be a risky fantasy start at less than 100% against the Chiefs’ fifth-ranked WR defense.

Broncos RB R.J. Harvey (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs. He was added to the injury report on Thursday and then did not practice on Friday. We’ll look for more info on Harvey’s injury and a timeline for return. He leaves behind a backfield-high 41% route rate and 17% target share. RB Jonah Coleman, who beat RB J.K. Dobbins 22% to 6% in routes last week, is the favorite to pick up most of Harvey’s passing-down work.

Jaguars WR Jakobi Meyers (hamstring, ankle) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Colts. He went from limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday to no practice on Friday. Meyers has registered an 85% route rate and 16% target share this season. His absence would free up opportunity for WRs Brian Thomas, Josh Cameron, and Travis Hunter, although it’s tough to say who would benefit most. Meyers has run about two-thirds of his routes from the outside this season, which is close to Thomas and Cameron’s deployment. Hunter has run about two-thirds of his routes from the slot.

Rams TE Colby Parkinson (rib) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. He didn’t practice all week. Parkinson has caught 5 of 6 targets in back-to-back games. His absence would be a particular boost for TE Tyler Higbee.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is off the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Rams. McConkey has posted 3-35-0 and 4-66-0 lines in his only two healthy games this season. Consider him a WR3 in Week 8 lineups. The Chargers will also get WR Tre Harris (hamstring) back this weekend.

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, and is off the final injury report. Warren missed the last two games but ranked top 6 among TEs in targets, target share, catches, expected PPR points per game, and actual PPR points per game over the first 5. He’s back inside our top-5 TEs for Sunday’s game vs. Jacksonville’s 13th-ranked TE defense.

Commanders WR Stefon Diggs (hand, hamstring) is not listed on the final injury report. He put in full practices on Thursday and Friday after sitting out on Wednesday. Diggs gets a plus matchup on Sunday night against struggling Eagles slot CB Cooper DeJean. Philadelphia has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to slot receivers. WR Treylon Burks (foot) is questionable for Week 8.

Bears TE Colston Loveland was added to the injury report with a neck and limited in practice on Friday. We don’t have any other details, but Loveland’s status for Monday night’s game vs. the Bears is now in question. We’ll see if he practices on Saturday and how he’s listed on the final injury report. Chicago lost TE Cole Kmet to a season-ending knee injury last week, leaving rookie TE Sam Roush behind Loveland.
