Chargers TE Hayden Hurst (groin) is off the final injury report and will play vs. the Browns this weekend. Hurst isn’t a fantasy option, but his return clouds the playing time and target projections on TE Will Dissly. Try to not use Dissly in Week 9 fantasy lineups.

Chargers TEs Will Dissly (shoulder) and Hayden Hurst (groin) are listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Saints. Dissly is coming off an 8-81-0 line last week. But between his injury and the potential return of Hurst, Dissly shouldn't be in Week 8 fantasy lineups.

Consider Young a slight downgrade from QB Andy Dalton for Carolina's pass catchers.

Bengals TE Hayden Hurst (calf) is "doubtful" to play vs. the Browns this weekend, HC Zac Taylor said Monday. We'll look for further details on Hurst's injury and how long he'll be out.

Hurst will likely struggle to reach every-week TE1 status without injuries to Cincinnati's WR corps. But he should bring intriguing upside as a spot-start option in lineup-setting leagues and is a fine TE2 target in best ball.
