Panthers DE Brian Burns (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. He progressed throughout the week, from missing Wednesday's practice to being limited Thursday and then a full Friday workout. We'll check Burns' status Sunday around 2:30 p.m. ET, when the inactives come out.

Panthers DE Brian Burns left Sunday's loss to the Patriots with right ankle injury. Burns initially left in the 1st quarter after QB Mac Jones tugged him down by the ankle following a Jones fumble. Burns returned from that but later left with an issue in the same ankle. Teammate Haason Reddick said after the game that Burns told him the ankle would be fine, according to ESPN's David Newton.

Raiders TE Darren Waller is not listed on the Week 9 injury report. He missed Vegas' last game -- prior to the Week 8 bye -- with an ankle injury suffered in practice. But he's ready to go for this weekend's game vs. the Giants and remains a high-end fantasy play.

Raiders TE Darren Waller (ankle) is INACTIVE for today’s game against the Eagles. Foster Moreau will step in as Vegas’ lead TE and is a viable fantasy fill-in if you were hoping to use Waller.

Raiders TE Darren Waller (ankle) is expected to be a game-time decision for today's tilt with the Eagles, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Waller "strained his inner ankle and heel" in Friday's practice and doesn't "feel great," Schefter hears. Eagles-Raiders doesn't kick off until 4:05 pm ET, putting fantasy owners in a tough spot. If you're waiting on Waller, Raiders backup TE Foster Moreau, Cardinals TE Zach Ertz, Bucs TEs O.J. Howard and Cameron Brate, Bears TE Cole Kmet and Colts TE Mo Alie-Cox are potential fill-ins if Waller ends up inactive. Check out the Week 7 TE Rankings to see how we rank those guys.

Raiders TE Darren Waller is questionable for Sunday’s game with an ankle injury. The Raiders have a Week 8 bye, so we’ll see if the team opts to play it safe here. Vegas kicks off vs. Philadelphia at 4:05pm EST. Foster Moreau is Waller's direct backup and would become a viable plug-and-play for desperate fantasy managers.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. If he's able to return for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers, he'd likely be the Giants' #2 WR with Kenny Golladay and Kadarius Toney expected to miss.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (concussion) isn't listed on the final injury report. He's been cleared to start Sunday's game vs. the Rams. Jones finished as a top 12 fantasy QB in 3 of the season's first 4 weeks and is back in the low-end QB1 discussion for Week 6.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (concussion) will be a full participant in Friday's practice and "appears" on track to start Sunday's game vs. the Rams, HC Joe Judge said Friday morning. Jones still needs to be cleared by an independent neurologist in order to play this weekend, but it sounds like that's expected to happen. Jones is a borderline QB1 for Week 6 and an upgrade over QB Mike Glennon for all of New York's skill-position players.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (concussion) has been cleared to practice on a limited basis on Thursday. He's made some progress through the protocol but still has work to do to be cleared for Sunday's game vs. the Rams. Check back tomorrow for another update on his status.

Giants HC Joe Judge said Wednesday that QB Daniel Jones is "on track with everything" in his return from the Week 5 concussion and might play Sunday against the Rams, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. That's a little surprising given how wobbly Jones was before leaving the field in Dallas. We'll obviously have to watch his status throughout the week.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Reporters spotting him on the field doing some soft toss, so he's evidently made some progress through the protocol. Still, Jones is no better than 50/50 to start Sunday's game vs. the Rams. QB Mike Glennon will get the nod if Jones isn't cleared.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) returned to practice on Wednesday. So did WR Sterling Shepard (hamstring), who said he plans on playing vs. the Rams this weekend. Slayton also seems on track to play in that one. Look for those 2 -- plus rookie Kadarius Toney -- to operate as New York's top 3 WRs.

Giants QB Daniel Jones sustained an apparent concussion when he took a big shot late in the 2nd quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He was stumbling as he tried to get off the field. We'll update Jones' status when we know more. QB Mike Glennon is New York's backup.

Update: Jones has been ruled out with a concussion.

Giants WR Darius Slayton was knocked out of Sunday's game vs. the Falcons with a hamstring injury. That comes just a few minutes after WR Sterling Shepard was ruled out with his own hamstring injury. New York is down to WRs Kenny Golladay, Collin Johnson, C.J. Board and Kadarius Toney.

The Titans signed K Randy Bullock off their practice squad. He'll replace K Michael Badgley, who was dumped earlier today. Bullock isn't a recommended Week 2 fantasy play after Tennessee's offense struggled in the opener.

Patriots CB Jalen Mills (ankle) is active for today's game against the Dolphins, despite entering the day questionable.

Giants CB Adoree' Jackson (ankle) is active for today's game against the Broncos, giving the team its new starting duo for the matchup with Denver WRs Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton.

Giants WR Darius Slayton left Sunday's preseason finale against the Patriots with an ankle/foot injury. The team deemed him questionable to return. We wouldn't expect him to return to the contest, but that designation makes the outlook seem better than if the team had labeled him otherwise. We'll see about the official diagnosis. Slayton is no more than a late consideration in deeper formats, so he's probably not worth drafting in most fantasy football leagues.

Bills RB Devin Singletary got the start in Saturday's preseason finale and played all 12 snaps on the 1st possession. RB Zack Moss ended up leading the backfield with 16 snaps with QB Josh Allen, though. Singletary played 15 and RB Matt Breida 7. Breida, interestingly, played 6 of those 7 snaps in the slot or split out wide. This is looking like at least a 2-man, and potentially a 3-man committee heading into Week 1.
