Chargers receiver Ladd McConkey opened the week with a limited practice and was expected to be available Sunday, though his fantasy outlook was tempered by low target volume and the team’s struggling offense. Dolphins receiver Caleb Douglas remained sidelined with an ankle injury, putting his availability against Minnesota in doubt; De’Von Achane is out for the season with a torn ACL, while Jaylen Wright practiced on a limited basis and could share backfield work with Ollie Gordon II. Bills cornerback Christian Benford missed practice with a toe injury, putting his status for Sunday in doubt and potentially improving the matchup for Patriots quarterback Drake Maye. Panthers tight end Darren Waller also missed Wednesday’s practice with a toe injury, with his fantasy value depending on whether he returns later in the week. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was absent from Wednesday’s practice, but the reason had not been disclosed.
