Your fantasy football season is in make or break territory we are nearing the stretch run. The waiver offerings have been hit and miss so far this season, but it is time to make big moves. If you have gaps in your line-up or going to get hit hard by the bye week, don't be afraid to overpay for a 1 or 2 week fill-in. We are through most of the bye weeks so we should only have to navigate a few more weeks where we will be short players.
It's sad to say, but injuries do make the waiver wire more interesting. We are not injury vultures, we wish those that are injured the best of luck, we are just playing a game and are looking to optimize our chances of winning.
Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Adds
Players We Can Drop
When we make waiver claims most of the time we can easily determine who to add, but we struggle with which players to drop. It is very difficult to give-up on a player we thought was worth drafting in the first place. If you are struggling, you should be dropping your questions or concerns in our FREE Discord channel. Don't be afraid of it, I'm over 50 and navigate it fairly well.
Injuries and other updates:
Bengals designated QB Joe Burrow (toe) for return from injured reserve.
Burrow will practice in a limited capacity this week and can be activated off injured reserve at any time. The Bengals have 21 days to officially activate Burrow from injured reserve or rule him out for the season, so there’s a good chance we could still be a few weeks away from playing on Sundays.
Nick Wagoner believes “it’s clear the 49ers don’t intend to make Brock Purdy active again until he’s healthy enough to reclaim his starting job.”
Jim Harbaugh when asked about the apparent ankle injury Justin Herbert suffered last night: "I do have an update on his physical status: He is still a beast."
Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles said there is still no timetable for Bucky Irving’s (shoulder) return.
Rich Cimini reports Garrett Wilson will miss 3-4 weeks with a knee sprain.
Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Isiah Pacheco (knee) “may take more time.”
The 49ers are hoping to get Ricky Pearsall (knee) back for practice this week.
Ian Rapoport reports Jackson Powers-Johnson’s ankle injury “could potentially end his season.” Powers-Johnson has started every game at right guard for the Raiders this season, earning a PFF grade of 63.8 while being one of the few bright spots of an underwhelming group. This is bad news for Ashton Jeanty.
Ravens HC John Harbaugh said he thinks Rashod Bateman will be “okay” after suffering an ankle injury in Week 10 against the Vikings.
Commanders coach Dan Quinn said Terry McLaurin (quad) won’t play in Washington’s Week 11 game with the Dolphins.
Adam Schefter reports Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden is considered “day-to-day” with a quad bruise.
Ravens HC John Harbaugh said he wants to get Keaton Mitchell more involved in the offense.
Jordan Schultz reports Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is “considered week to week.”
Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said “I’m not sure if that’s what we’re doing” when asked about activated Deshaun Watson (Achilles) off the PUP list.
Jaguars designated TE Brenton Strange (hip) to return from injured reserve.
Previous Injuries and Notes to Remember
Joe Alt will undergo season-ending ankle surgery, the Chargers announce. This is a severe downgrade for Herbert and the Chargers offense.
Commanders QB Jayden Daniels is expected to be sidelined indefinitely due to his dislocated left elbow, but it is uncertain whether his season is over, per sources. Commanders Head Coach, Dan Quinn said there's "no timetable" for Jayden Daniels' return.
Tests confirmed that Packers TE Tucker Kraft did in fact tear his ACL as feared, per source
Jim Harbaugh said he does not expect Omarion Hampton’s activation window to be opened until after the Week 12 bye.
Vikings RB Aaron Jones' right shoulder is "sore," Kevin O'Connell says, and it's "positive news early on" about his prognosis. They'll see if Jones can ramp up his activity over the course of the week.
The 49ers will NOT open up Brandon Aiyuk’s practice window this week.
Kyler Murray (foot) placed on IR, he will miss at least 4 games. Jacoby Brissett is in line to make at least more four starts while Kyler Murray (foot) is on injured reserve.
Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Trey Benson (knee) is "doing well" but isn't ready to practice, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
