WR Steve Breaston- Arizona
Expected to play throw a knee injury again. Opposing defenses are still keying in on Larry Fitzgerald allowing Breaston to have easy coverage. He caught 8 balls for 147 yards and a score last week, but Minnesota’s defense is better than Tampa Bay’s so he might not be as lucky this week. He’s still a solid WR3.
RB DeAngelo Williams- Carolina
Out. Jonathan Stewart is worth another start despite the fact that he could only manage 30 yards on 14 carries last week against St. Louis. New Orleans can’t stop the run and Stewart does have talent.
RB Felix Jones- Dallas
Missed practice Wednesday, but will still play this week. He’s taken over the lead back role in Dallas.
QB Matt Stafford- Detroit
He’s got a foot injury, but will play. I’m being the hype with him, but he’s still a very risky start against a defense like the Jets’ that made Aaron Rodgers look bad last week.
WR Calvin Johnson- Detroit
Listed as probable with a shoulder injury and will play.
WR Donald Driver- Green Bay
Out. Driver hasn’t caught a ball in his last 2 games and the Packers probably felt their offense would be better without him until he’s fully healthy.
QB Aaron Rodgers- Green Bay
Expected to play through an ankle injury.
TE Owen Daniels- Houston
Daniels is a game time decision. He hasn’t practiced this week, but Gary Kubiak is still optimistic that he’ll be able to play. I can’t guarantee you he’ll play the whole game and with just one game of 50+ yards this season, I’d say look at other options.
WR Andre Johnson- Houston
He’ll play through an ankle injury, but he’s obviously nowhere near 100%. Then again he wasn’t anywhere near 100% week 5 when he caught 5 balls for 95 yards through an ankle injury.
WR Anthony Gonzalez- Indianapolis
Placed on IR. This is just getting pathetic.
RB Mike Hart- Indianapolis
RB Joseph Addai- Indianapolis
Both are expected to miss this week’s game, which means that Donald Brown and Javarris James will split carries this week. Brown is not a horrible fantasy play this week, but is only averaging 3.0 yards per carry and playing with a hamstring injury, so keep that in mind.
WR Bernard Berrian- Minnesota
He will play even through a groin injury limited him Friday. Don’t get too excited though. He hasn’t caught more than 2 balls in a game this season, so he’s not a great fantasy play, even with Percy Harvin potentially out.
WR Percy Harvin- Minnesota
He was described as very limited through an ankle injury as recently as Friday, but remains a game time decision for a 1 o’clock start time. Have an alternative ready, but considering him went for 100+ yards last week after injuring himself, I expect him to play and produce well.
QB Brett Favre- Minnesota
He’ll play, but will he play well is the question? Arizona is poor against the pass and this game is to save his season. He played well last week before getting hurt, so I actually would start him this week if necessary.
RB Fred Taylor- New England
Out.
WR Deion Branch- New England
He says he’ll play, but even if he does, he’s very limited by his hamstring, so I wouldn’t start him.
RB Pierre Thomas- New Orleans
Out.
RB Reggie Bush- New Orleans
Likely out. He’s practiced some this week, but there’s really no need for the Saints to force him out there at less than 100% against Carolina before the Saints’ bye week.
WR Marques Colston- New Orleans
He’ll play and remains the Saints’ most consistent fantasy option.
QB Drew Brees- New Orleans
Reports that he has a torn meniscus seem greatly exaggerated. He’ll play.
TE Zach Miller- Oakland
He’s listed as doubtful after missing practice all week. Translation, he’s not going to play.
WR DeSean Jackson- Philadelphia
Expected to play barring any major setbacks with his concussion.
QB Michael Vick- Philadelphia
Vick will start over Kevin Kolb this week.
TE Antonio Gates- San Diego
He’s listed as doubtful, but he’s calling himself a game time decision. He’s proved himself to be one of the toughest players in the league, so I would check his status tomorrow morning before benching him, despite that doubtful tag.
WR Malcom Floyd- San Diego
Also listed as doubtful and unlike Gates, he’s not expected to play at all.
WR Legedu Naanee- San Diego
Out.
QB Matt Hasselbeck- Seattle
Out.
WR Mike Williams- Seattle
It looked bad earlier in the week, but he was upgraded for questionable to probable and will start vs. the Giants.
TE Kellen Winslow- Tampa Bay
He’ll play through his knee injury again. Start him as you normally would.
