Parkinson will miss at least one game with a rib injury he sustained last week against the Raiders. His absence could have a big impact on playing time for both Davis Allen — who had two touchdown grabs last week — and Tyler Higbee, the de facto TE1 in the LA offense. Both tight ends are better options against the Chargers with Parkinson sidelined.

Left tackle Garrett Boles and EDGE Zach Allen are also active. All Broncos players who were questionable for Week 8 are active. After a disappointing two months to start the year, Waddle is at the back of the WR3 ranks for Week 8. Inactive for the Broncos are S Talana Hufanga, QB Sam Ehlinger, OL Gavin Ortega, DL Jordan Jackson, DL Tyler Oneydim, OL Kage Casey, and TE Dallen Bentley.

His right ankle was rolled up on at the end of a running play and Love immediately slammed his helmet after walking off. He later went to the locker room with trainers and then was officially dubbed questionable. Not great. Love finished with nine carries for 23 yards, including a fourth-and-1 go at the goalline that he didn’t convert. We’ll see what reports say after the game but given Love has already missed time with ankle injuries this year, it’s hard to be optimistic about his status for next week.

Jackson’s day officially ends after one play. The two-time MVP injured the thumb on his throwing hand on his first and only dropback of the day and immediately went to the locker room. The urgency with which Jackson was ushered from the field, coupled with how quickly he was ruled out, suggests this could be a serious enough injury that will result in another multi-game absence for Jackson. Tyler Huntley will be under center for the remainder of Week 8’s game against the Bills.

Rapoport then named Josh Downs and Brian Thomas Jr. as players to keep an eye on. Both wideouts are in the midst of down years and their teams have already leaked that they are on the trade block. Thomas Jr. would hopefully unlock the once-vaunted Patrick Mahomes deep ball. Downs, on the other hand, would be another underneath weapon for a passing attack that his simply asking too much of Rashee Rice right now. Both players’ fantasy stock would skyrocket via a trade.

Moore and TE Dalton Kincaid are both officially active, giving the Bills two of their top playmakers in what projects as one of the best matchups of the Week 8 slate against the Ravens. Moore returns for his first game since Week 4 and has caught 12 passes for 178 yards and one touchdown on 19 targets. He’ll profile as a fringe WR1/WR2 at home. The Bills declared WR Skyler Bell, CB Dee Alford, S Jalon Kilgore, LB Mike Danna, OG Ar’maj Reed-Adams, OT Spencer Brown, and DL Greg Gaines inactive for Week 8.

Jones was able to practice in full on Friday after battling the lingering knee issue all week. He could be somewhat limited against Detroit, creating a potentially bigger workload for Jordan Mason, who profiles as a flex option in 12-team leagues. Vikings declared Jakobe Thomas, Charles Demmings, Demond Claiborne, Caleb Tiernan, Elijah Williams, and Max Brosmer inactive against the Lions.

Hall seems to have suffered a rather serious setback with the quad injury that has been dogging him since September. This is easily said in hindsight, but it would seem Gang Green did not handle the issue particularly well. Hall is supposedly “hoping for next week,” but we would consider him on the wrong side of questionable until further notice. Isaiah Davis will serve as Braelon Allen’s breather back. Joining Hall on the shelf are EDGE David Bailey, WR Tim Patrick, CB Nahshon Wright, ED David Bailey, OL Kohl Levao and OL Max Mitchell.

The Vikings dots have been getting connected for a while now, so it’s not surprising to see something of a confirmation they are interested. The Giants and Bengals also make all the sense in the world. Green Bay would be a fit, as well, though it would be a bit surprising to see the Broncos add to their running back surplus. Taylor, of course, would blow their other backs out of the water. There’s enough smoke here to believe a fire might break out, but the Colts can probably be taken at their word that it would take an overpay to pry away what amounts to their franchise player right now.

Moore missed the Bills’ previous two games but had the bye week to get healthy. He was limited in practice throughout the week before being listed as questionable. He’s likely still not at full strength, but fantasy managers can’t be too concerned given the game environment. The Bills’ matchup with Baltimore has all of the makings of a shootout. Moore was also operating as Josh Allen’s clear No. 1 receiver before aggravating his shoulder injury. Moore is a strong WR2 option for Week 8.
