Week 9 of the NFL season starts tonight, and you have to get your fantasy football lineups set. First, you need to know all the latest injury updates on all the top stars before heading into the weekend. This is the fantasy football injury report for Week 9.
Darnold is dealing with a quad injury and will not play in Week 9. Drew Lock will get the start. He is a downgrade, but he's not that huge of a downgrade.
Murray is week-to-week with a hamstring injury, and Carson Wentz will be back under center. This has very little impact.
Watson is still in the concussion protocol and is not practicing. It's extremely unlikely he plays in Week 9. Shedeur Sanders is expected to get the start.
Tuten is still a game-time decision, but is expected to play in tonight's game. He could see fewer touches in a likely blowout of the Baltimore Ravens.
Hall is good to go for Week 9 and will return. However, he could be returning to a split backfield with Braelon Allen.
This seems to be a strange situation, but Henderson still isn't practicing due to an illness, and we do not expect him to play this week.
Monangai still isn't practicing due to thumb and toe injuries. What originally was dismissed as not much of a big deal has ended up costing him a lot of time.
Knight is not practicing and does not look like he'll be able to play in Week 9 after suffering a concussion on a brutal hit last week. With Jeremiyah Love on IR, it should be all Tyler Allgeier again this week.
Brown is not practicing this week and looks like a long shot to play in Week 9. DeMario Douglas should once again serve as the Patriots' WR1.
Evans and Deebo Samuel have not practiced this week. Neither is expected to play in Week 9. Christian Kirk's status is still up in the air.
Watson is practicing in a limited fashion despite his rib injury and is expected to play. He could be a risky start. A big hit could knock him out of the game.
Egbuka is back at practice and looks to be good to go for Week 9. He should step back in as the WR1, perhaps compelling the Bucs to throw the football on occasion.
Henry is dealing with a foot injury and has not practiced this week. Rookie Eli Raridon is in line to start and could have a big role in the offense.
Ferguson has had his 21-day window opened, and Colby Parkinson is still not practicing. If Ferguson returns, he's an intriguing option. Otherwise, Tyler Higbee is a potential streamer.
Ferguson is not practicing due to an ankle injury. This is one to monitor.
