Jets WR Omar Cooper sprained an ankle in Sunday's win over the Titans, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. X-rays came back clean, and Cooper is scheduled for an MRI. HC Aaron Glenn said afterward that he's not worried about the severity of the injury. Cooper could still miss multiple weeks, but he dodged something more serious. The rookie caught his only target for 30 yards before exiting

Carnell Tate, the first WR selected in the most recent NFL Draft, produced just 7.8 PPR points in his Week 1 debut. The rookie finished as the third-highest scoring WR on his own team after catching four of his 6 targets for 38 yards. But looking under the hood, there is plenty of reason to be encouraged by Tate’s week one performance.

Giants RB Najee Harris is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys. New York will roll with Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy, and Devin Singletary in the backfield. Harris just signed on August 18 coming off last year's torn Achilles. There's still no clear handcuff to Skattebo, although Tracy and Singletary have a chance to build some momentum tonight.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was a full participant in practice all week but sounded unsure about his readiness for this one. It’s still unclear how much Nabers will play in his first action since his knee injury, but he’s available to use in fantasy lineups if you were waiting on him.

Commanders TE Chig Okonkwo is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Eagles with a hamstring injury. He caught 2 of 3 targets for 16 yards before exiting. We'll updated Okonkwo's status when we know more.

After being selected by the Jets with the 16th overall pick this past NFL draft, Kenyon Sadiq scored 11.4 PPR points in his debut against the Titans. It’s just the sixth time that a first-round rookie TE has scored at least 10 PPR points on Week 1 since 2006, joining TJ Hockenson, Tyler Warren, Vernon Davis, Brock Bowers, and Jermaine Gresham.

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey suffered an apparent left hip or lower back injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. He was having a big game before going down, catching 5 of 7 targets for 82 yards and a score. We'll update McConkey's status when we know more.

Update: McConkey is officially questionable to return with a chest injury.

After averaging only 11.0 fantasy points per game as a rookie, there was plenty of reason for optimism about a second-year leap to begin in Week 1 against a Jets defense that gave up the most passing TDs last season. Unfortunately, Ward finished with 11.7 fantasy points after completing 19 of 32 pass attempts for 140 yards and a TD while adding 21 yards on the ground.

In what was projected to be a low-scoring matchup between the Jets and Titans, Breece Hall led all players in this game with 19.8 PPR points. Hall totalled 118 yards that included a 4 yard touchdown run in what was the back’s second straight 18 PPR performance in as many games going back to last season.

Vikings QB Kyler Murray took a hit to the head in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Packers. He appeared to be concussed and might have also suffered a neck injury. We'll update his status when we know more, but don't expect to see Murray back today. QB Carson Wentz is Minnesota's backup this week, with QB J.J. McCarthy the emergency third QB.

Update: Murray has been ruled out with a concussion. It's his first documented concussion.

Ravens WR Ja'Kobi Lane suffered a wrist injury in Sunday's opener vs. the Colts and won't return. The rookie caught 1 of 3 targets for 11 yards before exiting. We'll update his status when we know more.

Chargers Edge Tuli Tuipulotu is active for today's game against the Cardinals. He entered the day questionable after a hip issue limited his practice participation all week. I lowered Tuipulotu's Week 1 projection after the limited practices and "questionable" tag, but he's available for IDP lineups if you've been planning to use him.

Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Chargers. He’s a little over 4 weeks removed from his high-ankle sprain and hinted on Thursday that he won’t be at 100% for this one. It leaves the rookie as a risky fantasy start in his debut, but he’s available if you were waiting on him.

Jets S Minkah Fitzpatrick left in the first half of Sunday's game against the Titans with a groin injury. The team initially called him questionable to return but dowgraded that to doubtful. We'll see about Fitzpatrick's status for Week 2 and beyond.

Ravens WR Zay Flowers is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Colts with a hamstring injury. He dealt with a hamstring issue late in training camp and appeared to tweak it in the second quarter. Flowers has remained on the sidelines, so it doesn't seem like a serious issue. He was having a huge game before exiting, catching 5 of 6 targets for 150 yards and a score.

Jaguars WR Brian Thomas injured a shoulder in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Browns. He headed back to the locker room and is officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Thomas has been cleared to return for the second half.

Jets WR Omar Cooper is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Titans with an ankle injury. The rookie caught his only target for 30 yards before exiting. We'll update his status when we know more.

Update: Cooper has been ruled out.

Browns RB Dylan Sampson suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He headed back to the locker room and is questionable to return. We'll update Sampson's status when we know more. His absence leaves Cleveland's backfield to Quinshon Judkins and Raheim Sanders.

Update: Sampson has been ruled out.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. is inactive for today's game against the Falcons. He's officially out with a back injury, though his ongoing stalemate over a new contract has to make you wonder the true cause.

Jaguars RB LeQuint Allen (hip) is active for today’s game vs. the Browns. He only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday but is evidently ready to handle a passing-down role today. Allen isn’t a legitimate fantasy option.
