Jacoby Brissett Starts for Ravens; A.J. Brown Questionable

Posted November 15, 2026 at 8:16 AM ET

It’s a game-day roundup more than a blockbuster one. The headline move overnight is in Baltimore, where Jacoby Brissett is set to make his first start for the Ravens on Monday night with Lamar Jackson still on injured reserve. Sunday’s slate is mostly about game-time calls: the 9:30 AM ET window in Munich carries three of them before most fantasy managers have finished their coffee, and New England’s backfield picture got thinner this week with a running back move to IR. Here’s the full rundown ahead of kickoff.

Early Kickoff: Patriots-Lions Game-Time Calls in Munich

New England and Detroit kick off the week at 9:30 AM ET from Munich, which means fantasy managers don’t get the usual luxury of waiting out the 90-minutes-before-kickoff inactive report. 🟢 Active — A.J. Brown (NE): Brown carried a knee issue into the Patriots’ injury report as a questionable tag heading into the international game, and he is active, per the Patriots’ inactives list released Sunday morning. Fantasy Action: Plug him in.

🟢 Active — Amon-Ra St. Brown (DET): St. Brown was questionable with ribs and is active for the Lions, who host the game on a neutral field in Germany, per Sunday’s inactives. He remains Detroit’s clear target leader when healthy. Fantasy Action: Start him; he’s still the safer bet of the two Munich questionables given Detroit’s offense runs through him regardless of a minor ribs issue.

🔴 IR — TreVeyon Henderson (NE): Henderson’s health scare has turned into a roster move — the rookie back is now on injured reserve with an illness, after being hospitalized for testing on unexplained neurological symptoms earlier this month. 🟢 Active — Rhamondre Stevenson (NE): Stevenson was also questionable with a knee issue and is active, but the bigger note for the Patriots’ backfield is that Corey Kiner has already taken over as New England’s lead back regardless of Stevenson’s game-day status. Fantasy Action: Drop or stash Henderson depending on format; Kiner is the priority add in New England’s backfield, with Stevenson a touchdown-dependent flex at best.

Ravens Turn to Jacoby Brissett for Monday Night

🟢 Starting — Jacoby Brissett (BAL): Brissett is set to make his first start at quarterback for Baltimore in Monday night’s game against the Chargers, days after the Ravens acquired him to stabilize a quarterback room that’s been hit hard. Lamar Jackson remains on injured reserve following thumb surgery, and Tyler Huntley is on IR as well, leaving Brissett as Baltimore’s healthy option at the position. Fantasy Action: Brissett is streamable only in deep or superflex leagues desperate for a body at quarterback; Jackson is a hold in dynasty formats but off the board for fantasy purposes the rest of this season.

Running Backs

🔴 Out — Kenneth Walker III (KC): Walker remains out with a groin injury for Sunday’s game at Atlanta, and Emmett Johnson has taken over as Kansas City’s clear lead back in the meantime. 🔴 Out — David Montgomery (HOU): Montgomery is also out with a groin injury, with Woody Marks handling the Texans’ workload. Fantasy Action: Johnson and Marks are both strong lineup plays in their respective backfields as long as Walker and Montgomery sit.

🔴 Out — Josh Jacobs (GB): Jacobs is out for Green Bay with a finger injury that required surgery, pushing MarShawn Lloyd into the lead role against Minnesota, with Kaleb Johnson next on the depth chart. Fantasy Action: Lloyd is a solid flex with Jacobs sidelined; Chris Brooks is questionable behind him and worth a bench stash if you need RB depth.

🟡 Questionable — Travis Etienne Jr. (NO): Etienne is a game-time call with a hamstring strain after being activated off injured reserve this week. Alvin Kamara still handles New Orleans’ lead role regardless of Etienne’s status. Fantasy Action: Only relevant as a change-of-pace flex if active; don’t bench Kamara for this game either way.

🔴 IR — Jonathon Brooks (CAR): Brooks remains on injured reserve with a groin injury and has no path to touches behind Chuba Hubbard even once healthy. Fantasy Action: Drop in all but the deepest dynasty leagues.

Wide Receivers

🟡 Trending to clear — Garrett Wilson (NYJ): Wilson has been working through the concussion protocol all week and is trending toward playing against Buffalo, per our injury feed. Fantasy Action: Start him if he’s active, but have a plan ready in case he doesn’t clear in time — check inactives before locking your lineup.

🟡 Questionable — Ladd McConkey (LAC): McConkey is questionable with a back issue ahead of the Chargers’ Monday night trip to Baltimore, which buys him — and managers starting him — extra time before a final call is needed. Fantasy Action: Hold him in your lineup through Sunday and make the call once Monday’s practice/estimated participation picture is clearer.

🟡 Questionable — Xavier Legette (CAR): Legette is questionable with a knee injury in his first game back after being activated off injured reserve this week. Fantasy Action: Bench-level flex only if he’s active; treat him as speculative added depth rather than a start.

🔴 Out — Mike Evans (SF): Evans has been sidelined by right Achilles tendinitis and was a non-participant in Wednesday’s practice, per the 49ers’ injury report; our feed lists him out for Sunday’s game at Dallas. Fantasy Action: Bench him this week and keep him rostered.

🔴 Out — Carnell Tate (TEN): Tate (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans’ official site reported Nov. 11, and our feed lists him out against Jacksonville. He hasn’t played since Week 7. Fantasy Action: Bench him; hold only in deeper redraft leagues.

🔴 Out — Marvin Harrison Jr. (HOU): Harrison picked up a new hamstring injury and was limited in Wednesday’s practice, per RotoBaller (Nov. 11); our feed now lists him out for Sunday at Cleveland. Fantasy Action: Bench him for Week 10 and hold.

Tight Ends

🔴 Out — Jake Ferguson (DAL): Ferguson is out with a knee injury as Dallas hosts San Francisco, and Brevyn Spann-Ford has taken over as the Cowboys’ clear TE1 ahead of Luke Schoonmaker. Fantasy Action: Spann-Ford is a streamable tight end option in Ferguson’s absence.
