Injuries to Monitor

  • Drake Maye † (Shoulder): Was a full participant in practice this week ahead of Sunday’s game in Munich. He is trending toward a normal workload against Detroit.
  • Jared Goff † (Chest): Was a full participant Thursday after a limited practice Wednesday. He is trending toward playing Sunday in Munich.
  • Patrick Mahomes † (Elbow, knee): Andy Reid called him day-to-day Monday with a right elbow strain, but he was a full participant Wednesday and Thursday. Justin Fields is the backup.
  • Matthew Stafford † (Elbow): Was a full participant in practice. Puka Nacua (knee, turf toe) went on injured reserve Thursday, and Davante Adams (hamstring) is also on injured reserve.
  • Bryce Young † (Ankle): Threw for 276 yards and three touchdowns in Week 9 while listed with an ankle injury. Monitor Friday practice reports.
  • Deshaun Watson † (Concussion): The Browns announced Wednesday that Watson will start Sunday after he cleared the concussion protocol. He was inactive in Week 9, and Shedeur Sanders returns to the backup role.
  • Drew Lock † (Oblique, elbow): Was limited Wednesday and Thursday, and Mike Macdonald said Lock’s tests were “good,” and he expects him to manage the injury. He starts with Sam Darnold out, and Jalen Milroe is the backup.
  • Carson Wentz † (Ankle): Was limited Wednesday and Thursday after starting Monday night against Buffalo. Kevin O’Connell declined to commit to a Week 10 starter Wednesday, and Wentz, Kirk Cousins and Max Brosmer are the options with Kyler Murray week-to-week, so Minnesota’s starter is unconfirmed.
  • Joe Fagnano † (Ankle): Started Week 9 for Baltimore, which acquired Jacoby Brissett from Arizona before that game. The Ravens have not named a Monday night starter, so the designation between Fagnano and Brissett is unconfirmed.

DraftKings DFS Value Plays

Trevor Lawrence ($6,600) — Jaguars @ Titans

Game environment: Jaguars -10.5, O/U 46.5 (28.5 team total)

Last week: 13.6 DK points @ BAL

2025 PPG: 20.7 DK fantasy points (17 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 23.3

Lawrence projects fourth at the position and is priced as the QB3 on the Sunday Main slate, $900 below Josh Allen. Jacksonville’s 28.5-point team total is the third-highest on the slate, and Tennessee ranks 27th against quarterbacks on a blended basis. He has cleared 20 DK points in five of eight games, with four touchdown passes twice and back-to-back 300-yard games in Weeks 5 and 6. The risk is a lopsided score shrinking his fourth-quarter volume. He needs 19.8 points for 3x.

Brock Purdy ($7,000) — 49ers @ Cowboys

Game environment: 49ers -3.5, O/U 55.5 (30.5 team total)

Last week: 26.3 DK points vs. LV

2025 PPG: 20.8 DK fantasy points (9 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 26.6

San Francisco and Dallas carry the highest total on the board by five points, and a 3.5-point spread points to a game that stays competitive into the fourth quarter. Purdy has averaged 21.8 DK points across eight starts, and he added 40 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown against Las Vegas last week. Dallas ranks 28th against quarterbacks on a blended basis. He projects third overall but costs $500 less than Allen on the Sunday Main slate, and he needs 21.0 points for 3x.

Tyler Shough ($5,600) — Saints vs. Panthers

Game environment: Saints -2.5, O/U 48.5 (24.5 team total)

Last week: 19.7 DK points vs. CLE

2025 PPG: 14.9 DK fantasy points (11 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 20.1

Shough is the 10th-priced quarterback on the Sunday Main slate but projects within a point of Dak Prescott and Patrick Mahomes. He has topped 19 DK points in five of eight games, and his legs keep raising the floor: 10 carries for 51 yards against Cleveland last week and two rushing touchdowns on the season. Carolina ranks 12th against quarterbacks on a blended basis, so the case rests on price and rushing floor rather than matchup. He needs 16.8 points for 3x.
