To help you set your lineups and avoid starting a player who won’t take the field, we will post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their inactives lists, typically about 90 minutes before kickoff. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.
Refresh often for the latest information.
1 p.m. ET games
Offense
Mark Andrews TE BAL: Foot — Questionable
Impact: Andrews says he’s feeling good and is ready to play.
Devin Singletary RB BUF: Hamstring — Questionable
Impact: Practiced on Friday, but current reports lean towards him sitting.
Tyler Kroft TE BUF: Ankle — OUT
Impact: Dawson Knox could shine for the second straight week.
Cam Newton QB CAR: Foot — OUT
Impact: Kyle Allen will start until the veteran is ready.
Rashard Higgins WR CLE: Knee — Questionable
Impact: Damion Ratley would jump to No. 3 if Higgins sits.
Matthew Stafford QB DET: Hip — Questionable
Impact: Expected to play, but you may want to steer clear of Lions WRs, just in case.
Danny Amendola WR DET: Chest — Questionable
Impact: Tom Kennedy promoted from practice squad. Not a good sign.
T.Y. Hilton WR IND: Quad — Doubtful
Impact: Looking unlikely to play. Deon Cain and Chester Rogers get bumps.
Damien Williams RB KC: Knee — OUT
Impact: LeSean McCoy will start. Darrel Williams to spell.
Tyreek Hill WR KC: Shoulder — OUT
Impact: Mecole Hardman again an interesting flex pick for fantasy.
Justin Jackson RB LAC: Calf — OUT
Impact: Austin Ekeler will be No. 1 RB. Melvin Gordon may get a handful of touches.
Travis Benjamin WR LAC: Hip — Doubtful
Impact: Geremy Davis would see increase in targets as clear No. 3.
Mike Williams WR LAC: Back — OUT
Impact: Andre Patton signed to provide extra WR depth.
Virgil Green TE LAC: Groin — OUT
Impact: Sean Culkin potentially in the mix for very limited targets.
Hunter Henry TE LAC: Knee — OUT

Michael Badgley K LAC: Groin — OUT
Impact: Ty Long continues to fill in for the Chargers.
Allen Hurns WR MIA: Concussion — OUT
Impact: Jakeem Grant gets some extra value, for what that’s worth.
Albert Wilson WR MIA: Calf — Questionable
Impact: Expected to return for Week 4, but few Miami players are worth fantasy looks.
Rex Burkhead RB NE: Foot — Questionable
Impact: Expected to play, but Sony Michel might still get more touches this week.
Julian Edelman WR NE: Chest — Questionable
Impact: Making the trip to Buffalo, so he’s expected to play.
Matt LaCosse TE NE: Ankle — Questionable
Impact: Ryan Izzo starts if LaCosse can’t go.
Saquon Barkley RB NYG: Ankle — OUT
Impact: Wayne Gallman starts. Elijhaa Penny to back up.

Impact: Cody Latimer and Bennie Fowler need to step up.
Dwayne Harris WR OAK: Ankle — OUT
Impact: Trevor Davis could be a deep-league surprise.
Terry McLaurin WR WAS: Hamstring — Questionable
Impact: Looking likely to play, but may see limited snaps. Trey Quinn could benefit.

Impact: Vernon Davis starts. Jeremy Sprinkle to potentially step up as well.
