Seattle SeahawksDarnold available; Jones elevated for backfield depth
Sam Darnold, Cooper Kupp, George Holani and Jadarian Price have no game designation. Seattle elevated running back Velus Jones Jr. Saturday after his first elevation this season produced special-teams work. Keep Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the starting plan at Washington; the elevation does not establish a new offensive touch split.

Tampa Bay BuccaneersMayfield and McMillan have no game designation
Baker Mayfield and Jalen McMillan practiced fully Friday and have no game designation. The final report provides no new injury restriction for either player. Their fantasy outlook still depends on role and matchup, rather than assuming full participation guarantees strong production against Minnesota.

Washington CommandersDaniels and Okonkwo out; Mariota takes over
Jayden Daniels is out with an elbow injury; Washington calls him week to week and does not plan to place him on injured reserve. Marcus Mariota will start against Seattle. Chig Okonkwo and Sam Cosmi are also out. Keep Mariota as a deeper superflex fallback and replace Okonkwo without assuming another Washington tight end inherits reliable volume.

Jonah Coleman, Andrei Iosivas and Demarcus Robinson move to injured reserve, Pittsburgh adds running backs, and Chicago’s quarterback decision remains open.
New roster moves before Sunday
Denver moved Jonah Coleman to injured reserve Saturday, joining Cincinnati’s Andrei Iosivas and San Francisco’s Demarcus Robinson among the latest players moved off their teams’ active rosters. All three were already unavailable for Week 3. Remove them from your starting lineup and check your platform’s reserve eligibility before using another bench spot on a replacement.
Pittsburgh’s backfield needs a separate check before the early games. The Steelers signed Travis Homer to the active roster and elevated Lew Nichols with Rico Dowdle out and Jaylen Warren questionable. The additions give Pittsburgh cover without settling Warren’s status or identifying a dependable fantasy replacement. Michael Pittman also remains questionable for the Cincinnati game.
Chicago’s quarterback decision remains unresolved
Caleb Williams is out for Monday against Philadelphia. Tyson Bagent practiced fully Saturday, but the Bears say he remains in concussion protocol and their choice between Bagent and Case Keenum could run to game time. Bagent’s full practice leaves the starting decision unresolved until he completes the remaining checks. If you need a quarterback and cannot cover a Monday absence, choose an available Sunday option before that player’s game locks.
The updated lineup guide retains Tyler Shough and Bryce Young as selected streaming considerations, with Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota reserved for deeper or superflex formats. Check your league’s available players before choosing between them; an established healthy starter can be preferable to every name on that short list.
Keep replacements available for the later games
Brock Bowers and Zay Flowers remain questionable for the late Sunday window, as does Mike Evans for San Francisco’s afternoon game. Puka Nacua remains doubtful for Sunday night, while Colby Parkinson and Marvin Mims Jr. are questionable in that matchup. Prefer a healthy earlier receiver or tight end when your bench cannot cover the later uncertainty.
Philadelphia has ruled out Dallas Goedert, Marquise Brown and tackle Fred Johnson. Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith have no game designation. Replace Goedert before the Sunday tight ends you would use become unavailable, and do not assume that Zach Ertz’s practice-squad signing makes him an active Monday option.
Early-game checks also include Buffalo’s Keon Coleman and DJ Moore, Carolina’s Jalen Coker and Xavier Legette, the Jets’ Adonai Mitchell, Tennessee’s Tyjae Spears and New England’s Eli Raridon. Raridon traveled to Jacksonville, but he remains questionable. The expanded Injury Watch brings those decisions together with the other unresolved Week 3 injuries.
The Chargers placed Trey Pipkins III on injured reserve and elevated Patrick Herbert, with Charlie Kolar out and David Njoku already on IR. Consider Oronde Gadsden in deeper leagues if stronger tight-end options are unavailable. The team reports below include the other Saturday elevations and explain where workloads remain uncertain.
Atlanta’s Thursday win over Green Bay is complete. Week 2 usage and leader tables retain their original period because Week 3 has not finished. The guide assumes a typical 12-team, full-PPR, one-QB league, and its individual calls are editorial recommendations rather than point projections.

Sunday and Monday decision windows
Sunday’s first kickoffs are at 11 a.m. MDT / 1 p.m. ET. Expect those inactive lists around 9:30 a.m. MDT / 11:30 a.m. ET, with separate lists for the afternoon and night games. Monday’s Philadelphia–Chicago kickoff is at 6:15 p.m. MDT / 8:15 p.m. ET. Confirm each replacement before that player’s own game locks.
