Diontae Johnson - WR

Pittsburgh Steelers

Diontae Johnson is officially in the concussion protocol.

Added Sep 29 5:24 pm (EST)

Teresa Varley on Twitter

As expected. Johnson left early in Week 3 and will have to clear tests before suiting up again. Concussions are tough to predict, meaning he's 50/50 as of Tuesday to play Week 4's contest. The Steelers are also waiting on the Titans' COVID-19 test results to make sure they'll be able to play this weekend (or perhaps Monday) after eight members of the organization tested positive. If healthy, Johnson is a WR2 while leading the team in target share. It's best to at least have a backup plan in place in the short term.

T. Ward - DB

Cardinals signed S T.J. Ward to their practice squad.

Starting safety Budda Baker won't play this week after undergoing surgery to repair a ligament in his thumb. Jalen Thompson, the team's other safety, was placed on IR last month with an ankle injury. And backup Chris Banjo has been hobbled by a hamstring injury that could keep him out of this week's game against the Panthers. The Cardinals are considering deploying first-round draft pick LB Isaiah Simmons at safety, according to the team's website. Simmons this season has been targeted four times, resulting in four receptions, 94 yards, and two touchdowns. Teddy Bridgewater and the Carolina receivers could be in for a nice day against this Arizona secondary.

A. Brown - WR

TEN

Titans WR A.J. Brown (knee) is expected to play against the Bills in Week 5.

This, of course, assumes the Titans are able to piece together a team with COVID-positive players having to be away from team facilities for ten days, followed by a ramp up period. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said Brown, who hasn't played since Week 1, "had a chance" to play this week against the Steelers. That game has since been postponed after the Titans' COVID-19 outbreak. Brown should be reinserted into fantasy lineups as soon as he's active.

P. Lindsay - RB

DEN

Broncos RB Phillip Lindsay (toe) is unlikely to play Thursday.

Lindsay has practiced this week and traveled with the team to New York for Thursday's epic showdown with the Jets. There remains a small chance he could be activated, though it's looking like Melvin Gordon will once again function as the workhorse. Nearly 47 percent of plays run against the Jets defense this season have been rushes -- the sixth highest rate in the NFL. Gordon should be in fantasy lineups even if Lindsay is able to play.

C. Carson - RB

SEA

Seahawks RB Chris Carson (knee) was limited at Wednesday's practice.

If Carson can practice in some capacity on Thursday and Friday, he has a good shot of being active for a plus Week 4 matchup against the Dolphins. If the team holds him out, Carlos Hyde would likely take over early-down backfield duties while Travis Homer takes the passing down role.

C. Hyde - RB

SEA

Seahawks RB Carlos Hyde (shoulder) was limited at Wednesday's practice.

Chris Carson (knee) avoided a major injury against Dallas and also practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, so it looks like Hyde won't get a spot start in Week 4 against Miami. Fantasy managers should watch Carson's and Hyde's practice participation closely over the next couple days.

T. Tagovailoa - QB

MIA

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (illness) won't practice Thursday.

The rookie's illness isn't COVID related, per head coach Brian Flores. If Tagovailoa is inactive this week against the Seahawks, Reid Sinnett will serve as backup to Ryan Fitzpatrick. Sinnett competed for third string duties in Bucs training camp this summer.

M. Humphrey - DB

BAL

Ravens signed CB Marlon Humphrey to a five-year, $98.75 million contract extension.

The Ravens in April exercised Humphrey's fifth-year team option for 2021 as the two sides hammered out a long-term extension. Humphrey, an all-pro, is just 24, and a key part of the Baltimore secondary alongside Marcus Peters and Jimmy Smith. Humphrey has been targeted 19 times this season, allowing ten receptions for 119 yards.

J. Crowder - WR

NYJ

Jets WR Jamison Crowder (hamstring) will play Thursday against the Broncos.

New York's No. 1 receiver is back after missing two games with a hamstring injury. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero said Crowder "won't be 100 percent" but will "give it a go" against the Broncos on Thursday Night Football. He sounds like a risky proposition for fantasy managers, though Crowder could command a bunch of targets in a receiver group that includes Chris Hogan and Braxton Berrios. Both Hogan and Berrios get a downgrade against Denver if Crowder is active.
