Whom should you sit? To help you set your fantasy football lineups and avoid starting an offensive player who won't be in the lineup, we'll post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their official inactives lists. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.</p><p><em><strong>Official Sunday inactives should begin coming in approximately 90 minutes before the scheduled kickoff times: around 11:30 a.m. ET for the early games and 2:30 p.m. ET for the late-afternoon games.</strong></em></p><p><em>Refresh often for the latest information.</em></p><hr><h2>1 p.m. ET games</h2><inline1><p><strong>Eddy Pineiro, K, CAR:</strong> Knee --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: Injured while celebrating the Panthers' last win, the kicker should be good to go.</p><p><strong>Jonathon Brooks, RB, CAR:</strong> Knee --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: He will debut on Sunday and eat into Chuba Hubbard's workload.</p><p><strong>Miles Sanders, RB, CAR:</strong> Ankle --<i> OUT/IR</i><br /> Impact: His absence should mean Brooks is in line for a lot of snaps.</p><p><strong>Adam Thielen, WR, CAR:</strong> Hamstring --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: He has been activated from IR but limited in practice all week. It's possible he only plays in a reduced capacity, so be careful.</p><p><strong>Jalen Coker, WR, CAR:</strong> Quad --<i> Inactive</i><br /> Impact: Added to the injury list on Friday, it's not a surprise that he can't go today.</p><p><strong>D'Andre Swift, RB, CHI:</strong> Groin --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: A full Friday practice made it likely Swift would play, but the carry split with Roschon Johnson is still up in the air.</p><p><strong>Keenan Allen, WR, CHI:</strong> Ankle --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: Rome Odunze and DJ Moore would have to pick up the slack if Allen, who got hurt on Friday, falters during this one.</p><p><strong>Jake Ferguson, TE, DAL:</strong> Concussion --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: Turn to Luke Schoonmaker or even Brevyn Spann-Ford if you're desperate.</p><p><strong>Brandin Cooks, WR, DAL:</strong> Knee --<i>聽OUT/IR</i><br /> Impact: Cooks was not activated from IR. CeeDee Lamb is the only Dallas WR with any fantasy value at all.</p><p><strong>Isiah Pacheco, RB, KC:</strong> Leg --<i> OUT/IR</i><br /> Impact: The Chiefs say they'll wait one more week before activating Pacheco, meaning Kareem Hunt will get No. 1 RB carries on Sunday.</p><p><strong>Josh Oliver, TE, MIN:</strong> Wrist --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: While Oliver has no real fantasy value, his injury is likely to result in T.J. Hockenson playing on a full complement of snaps this week.</p><p><strong>Malik Nabers, WR, NYG:</strong> Groin --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: Nabers will play, as will聽Darius Slayton (concussion). However, with QB Tommy DeVito taking over for the released Daniel Jones, this is a WR unit to avoid.</p><p><strong>Mike Evans, WR, TB:</strong> Hamstring --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: Barring a pregame setback, Evans was always going to play in this game. He should be fine.</p><p><strong>Tyjae Spears, RB, TEN:</strong> Concussion --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: Tony Pollard gets another week to dominate backfield touches in Tennessee.</p><p><strong>Austin Seibert, K, WAS:</strong> Hip --<i> Active</i><br /> Impact: Zane Gonzalez is back to the practice squad, as Seibert gets ready to return to kicking duties.</p><hr><h2>4 p.m. ET games</h2><p><strong>Josh Reynolds, WR, DEN:</strong> Hand --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: Next week might finally be the time for Reynolds to return. Devaughn Vele and Lil'Jordan Humphrey keep their minimal fantasy value for now.</p><p><strong>Alexander Mattison, RB, LV:</strong> Ankle --<i> Doubtful</i><br /> Impact: It looks like some combination of Ameer Abdullah and ...</p><p><strong>Zamir White, RB, LV:</strong> Quad --<i> Doubtful</i><br /> Impact: ... Dylan Laube will be thrust into the RB spotlight for Las Vegas.</p><p><strong>Noah Fant, TE, SEA:</strong> Groin --<i> Questionable</i><br /> Impact: He's a game-time call, with slim pickings behind him at the position.</p><p><strong>Tyler Lockett, WR, SEA:</strong> Foot --<i> Questionable</i><br /> Impact: He was a very late Friday add to the injury report, so be sure to pay attention to the inactives update when it is released.</p><p><strong>Brock Purdy, QB, SF:</strong> Shoulder --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: Brandon Allen will start this week and potentially next week as well. Temper expectations for all 49ers receivers.</p><hr><h2>Sunday night game</h2><p><strong>DeVonta Smith, WR, PHI:</strong> Hamstring --<i> OUT</i><br /> Impact: Jahan Dotson will see action alongside A.J. Brown.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="16"></td> </tr> </table> <!-- End Content --> </td> <td width="8"></td> </tr> </table> <a class="back-to-top" href="#top">^ Back to Top ^</a> <table class="footer" border="0" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0" width="100%"> <tr align="center"> <td class="copyright"> <font size="1">© 2024 ESPN Internet Ventures. <a href="http://disneytermsofuse.com/" target="_blank">Terms of Use</a> and <a href="https://disneyprivacycenter.com/" target="_blank">Privacy Policy and Safety Information / Your California Privacy Rights</a> are applicable to you.
