The NFL trade deadline was a busy one as clubs made moves to shore up weak spots. Several of those deals were made in part to combat troublesome injuries that had weakened the teams' overall depth.

The newcomers will likely need an adjustment period with their new teams while the bumps and bruises heal elsewhere.

Let's turn our attention to some of the most prominent players' ongoing injury issues that will impact fantasy managers most in Week 10. As always, keep an eye on the latest developments leading up to kickoff with our player notes page.

QB Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs

Mahomes was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, Nov. 11 after hurting his elbow late in the first half of Sunday's game against the Jets when he was hit in the middle of his throwing motion. An MRI earlier in the week revealed an elbow strain/sprain, but no structural damage.

The Browns announced Wednesday that Watson (concussion) will start on Sunday against the Texans. He had previously cleared the protocol last Saturday, but didn't have enough time to prepare for the Week 9 game against the Saints. Shedeur Sanders started and threw for 297 yards and two touchdowns. Watson has been one of the most-often sacked quarterbacks in the NFL, so it's probably best for fantasy managers to steer clear of this game − unless they have the Texans defense.

RB Bhayshul Tuten, Jacksonville Jaguars

Tuten (ankle/foot) did not practice on Wednesday, but that shouldn't be any reflection of his eventual status for Sunday against the Titans. He was limited last week as well before suiting up against the Ravens. However, he only played 20 snaps and rushed for just 29 yards on 12 carries, though he did salvage a decent fantasy day by scoring a touchdown. Backup Chris Rodriguez is also dealing with a hand injury, but he did manage a limited practice on Wednesday.

Skattebo hasn't played since suffering a hamstring strain in Week 7 against the Texans, but he'll be good to go on Thursday night vs. Washington. He was a full participant in practice Tuesday and Wednesday, which is good news for a Giants offense that got a whopping 31 yards on 21 carries from Devin Singletary last week.

Currently on injured reserve with a hamstring strain, Etienne was spotted at practice on Wednesday. He might not be ready to play on Sunday, but the team could activate him soon. If he's available in your league, it might not be a bad idea to make a preemptive claim. He'll need to be activated by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday to be available against the Panthers.

WR Garrett Wilson, New York Jets

Wilson sat out last week's game with a concussion, but returned to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday. That's a step in the right direction, but it may not be enough to get him on the field this Sunday against the Bills. Look for Wilson to be a game-time decision.

WR A.J. Brown, New England Patriots

Brown has played in just three games this season, the last one coming in Week 7 before his problematic knee started acting up. He also missed four games earlier in the year with an ankle injury that may not be fully healed. He was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, so he's making some progress. The Patriots have already said Brown will make the trip to Germany for this week's game against the Lions. DeMario Douglas has stepped forward in Brown's absence, with a touchdown catch in Week 8 and five receptions for 102 yards last week.

WR Ladd McConkey, Los Angeles Chargers

Does anyone really know what McConkey's status is these days? He was declared active last week before kickoff, but didn't play any snaps due to ongoing back spasms. Coach Jim Harbaugh said McConkey is day-to-day, but even if he does make it back to practice this week, he's still a very risky start with the Chargers playing on "Monday Night Football." Find another option.

TE Hunter Henry, New England Patriots

Henry suffered a foot injury in Week 8 and was questionable to play last week. He gutted it out and caught three passes for 35 yards. Considering the Patriots depleted receiving corps, he should be a primary target for QB Drake Maye. However, Henry was also outsnapped by fellow tight end Eli Raridon in Week 9, 35-31. The rookie finished with three catches for 52 yards.
