Sunday delivered one of the heaviest injury slates of the season. Jalen Hurts landed on injured reserve with a blood clot, Lamar Jackson and Saquon Barkley both sat out again, and a wave of receivers — Rashee Rice, DJ Moore and Ladd McConkey among them — were sidelined across the Sunday slate. All 13 early windows are final; the week closes tonight with Washington at San Francisco, where Stefon Diggs and Mike Evans are both questionable.

Status At a Glance

🟢 trending toward playing · 🟡 availability uncertain · 🔴 elevated risk of missing, or confirmed out. Questionable/Doubtful/Out appear only where a team’s final injury report has been released; other labels reflect Sunday’s results and the Commanders’ and 49ers’ Week 6 practice reports through Friday, Oct. 16.

Quarterbacks

🔴 IR — Jalen Hurts (PHI): The Eagles placed Hurts on injured reserve Saturday after a follow-up ultrasound found a superficial blood clot in his calf, per the Philadelphia Inquirer and Fox Sports. He must miss at least four games, with a return no earlier than Nov. 22 at Pittsburgh. Tanner McKee started Philadelphia’s home game against Carolina in his place. Fantasy Action: move Hurts to an IR slot and treat McKee as a deep-superflex streamer only.

🔴 Out — Lamar Jackson (BAL): Jackson was ruled out for Sunday’s game at Cleveland with the left ankle injury that has now cost him three straight starts, per Friday’s Ravens injury report. Tyler Huntley started in his place for a third week. Fantasy Action: keep starting Huntley in all formats until Jackson returns to practice.

Running Backs

🔴 Out — Saquon Barkley (PHI): Barkley was ruled out for Sunday’s home game against Carolina with the hamstring strain he suffered in Week 4, per the Eagles’ final Week 6 injury report. With Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley both on IR, Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele were Philadelphia’s only healthy backs. Fantasy Action: bench Barkley and treat Pierce/Steele as desperation streamers only.

🔴 Out — Josh Jacobs (GB): Jacobs sat out Sunday night’s game against Dallas while serving the final week of his Commissioner’s Exempt List stint; the NFL removes him from the list today, Monday, making him eligible for Week 7, per The Ringer and Netflix Sports. MarShawn Lloyd started in his place and was Green Bay’s lead back. Fantasy Action: start Lloyd one final week; revisit Jacobs’ role once he’s back with the team.

🔴 Out — David Montgomery (HOU): Montgomery was ruled out for Sunday’s game against Jacksonville in London with a groin injury, per Houston’s tracked injury report. Woody Marks played 84.8% of Houston’s snaps as the clear lead back. Fantasy Action: start Marks as Houston’s lead back; Montgomery remains week-to-week.

🔴 Out — Quinshon Judkins (CLE): Judkins was ruled out and inactive for Sunday’s home game against Baltimore with an ankle injury, per NBC Sports, after carrying a Questionable tag into the weekend. With Raheim Sanders on IR, Jaleel McLaughlin leads Cleveland’s healthy backs in our snap counts. Fantasy Action: stash Sanders in an IR slot and treat McLaughlin as Cleveland’s backfield option against Baltimore.

Wide Receivers

🔴 Out — Rashee Rice (KC): Rice did not practice Wednesday or Thursday and was ruled out for Kansas City’s home game against the Chargers on Friday’s injury report, after a hamstring injury that The Athletic’s Mike Silver said could cost him several weeks. Fantasy Action: bench Rice and lean on Kansas City’s other pass catchers.

🔴 Out — DJ Moore (BUF): Moore was inactive for Sunday’s game at Las Vegas with the left shoulder injury he first suffered in Week 2, per the Bills’ official inactives report. Fantasy Action: bench Moore; start Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir as Buffalo’s active receivers.

🔴 Out — Ladd McConkey (LAC): McConkey slammed his head on the turf early in the second quarter of Sunday’s game at Kansas City and was ruled out with a concussion, per ESPN and Yahoo Sports. He had just cleared a lingering foot issue entering the week. Fantasy Action: watch the concussion protocol for his Week 7 status and lean on Quentin Johnston in the meantime.

🔴 Out — Rashod Bateman (BAL): Bateman was ruled out for the rest of Sunday’s game against Cleveland with a shoulder injury, per NBC Sports, in the same Ravens game already missing Lamar Jackson at quarterback. Fantasy Action: lean on Zay Flowers in Baltimore’s receiver room the rest of the way.

🟢 Debut — Marvin Harrison Jr. (HOU): Harrison made his Houston debut Sunday in London against Jacksonville after a trade from Arizona closed Sunday night, with the Texans sending a 2027 second-round pick as the headline piece, per ESPN. Coach DeMeco Ryans had said the team may limit his snaps while he learns the offense, per Fox 26 Houston. Fantasy Action: add Harrison as a speculative flex flier in deeper leagues, but treat him as a limited-role piece for now; Nico Collins remains Houston’s clear WR1.

Tight Ends

🔴 Out — Tyler Warren (IND): Warren was scratched for Sunday’s home game against Tennessee with a groin injury, per NBC Sports, after carrying a Questionable tag into the weekend. Mo Alie-Cox became Indianapolis’ top healthy tight end in his absence. Fantasy Action: start Alie-Cox as a streaming tight end with Warren out.

Monday Night Preview: Commanders at 49ers

Washington visits San Francisco tonight (8:15 PM ET) to close out Week 6, and both receiver rooms carry questions. 🟡 Questionable — Stefon Diggs (WAS): Diggs did not practice Thursday with the hamstring strain that cost him Washington’s Week 5 win over the Giants and is listed questionable on the Commanders’ Week 6 injury report, per NFL.com. 🟢 Terry McLaurin (WAS) carries no game designation after a limited Thursday session, clearing the hamstring issue he has managed since Week 4. 🟡 Questionable — Mike Evans (SF): Evans is dealing with both the rib injury he has played through and new Achilles soreness that kept him out of Thursday’s practice, and is listed questionable on San Francisco’s report, per NFL.com. 🔴 Out — Deebo Samuel (SF): Samuel remains out with the hamstring injury that has sidelined him since Week 5, with Kyle Shanahan saying he would “miss” multiple games. Fantasy Action: start McLaurin and Daniels with confidence, treat Diggs and Evans as game-time calls, and expect more volume for Brandin Cooks and George Kittle in San Francisco’s passing game with Samuel out.
