Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. is a healthy scratch in Week 7 against the hosting Cleveland Browns on Sunday. It's the second straight week that Wilson has been a healthy scratch, and it's not a good sign for the 29-year-old's involvement in the Dolphins' offense the rest of the season with Tyreek Hill (knee) out for the season. He also missed time earlier this year due to a knee injury, and he has not officially been active at all yet in his return to the Dolphins in 2025. Last year in 15 games (four starts) with the New Orleans Saints, Wilson caught 20 of his 27 targets for 211 yards and one touchdown. With Wilson being a healthy scratch again, Miami will move forward with Jaylen Waddle as its clear No. 1 receiver. Behind him will be Malik Washington and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, but tight end Darren Waller should be quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's No. 2 target.

Retired defensive end Brandon Graham is considering a return to the NFL. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Graham could come out of retirement and re-sign with the Philadelphia Eagles. The veteran defender would become an immediate starter on defense after the Eagles lost Za'Darius Smith to a midseason retirement. Graham appeared in 11 games last year, totaling 20 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and one forced fumble, but he retired after the Super Bowl. In addition to being an impact lineman, he offers veteran experience, leadership, and a proven ability to win. Schefter's report indicates that the Eagles and Graham could finalize a contract as early as this week if he officially decides to return.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (chest) is active to face the Tennessee Titans on Sunday in Week 7. Diggs entered the weekend with a questionable tag due to a chest injury that kept him limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. The 31-year-old veteran pass-catcher upgraded to a full practice on Friday, though, and he's good to go against Tennessee. Kayshon Boutte and DeMario Douglas both came away with big games in last week's win over the Saints, with Diggs only going for three catches and 28 yards in Week 6. However, he had back-to-back 100-yard performances in Weeks 4 and 5, and he remains a key part of the Pats' passing attack led by improving second-year quarterback Drake Maye. Diggs currently leads the team in targets (37), catches (32), and receiving yards (387). Consider him a low-end WR2 for fantasy football.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) has "a real chance to play" on Monday night against the Detroit Lions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Egbuka is listed as questionable. He missed two consecutive practices before returning in a limited capacity on Saturday. While having just one limited practice and zero full practices usually makes it tough to play, it sounds like Tampa Bay is leaving the door open for the rookie sensation to suit up. He has been one of the top stories of the young season, catching 27 passes for 469 yards and five touchdowns while ranking as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues. He has shown that he can co-exist with Mike Evans (hamstring), which is good news given that Evans is also expected to return from injury in Week 7. If Evans and Egbuka both suit up, and the latter is near 100 percent, then he would rank as a fringe top-12 fantasy receiver. Schefter's report sounds optimistic, but managers should still approach this situation with caution. A Monday night kickoff leaves managers with just four teams from which they can choose a replacement receiver if Egbuka isn't able to play. Putting him in the flex spot does expand your options to include running backs and tight ends, but managers should still prepare ahead of time and ensure that they have a healthy replacement in case Egbuka doesn't play. If such a replacement option doesn't exist on the bench or on waivers, managers may be inclined to take the safe route and play a healthy Sunday starter, leaving Egbuka on the bench due to his uncertain status.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee), who was listed as doubtful for Week 7 against the visiting Carolina Panthers, has officially been ruled out for Sunday's game. Wilson suffered a hyperextended knee in last week's loss in London to the Denver Broncos and was unable to practice all week. There is some optimism that Wilson will only have to miss one game, but it's unclear if he'll be in play to return for a Week 8 tilt next Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Wilson has been the team's clear WR1 through six weeks, so they'll have to adjust and use Josh Reynolds, Allen Lazard, Arian Smith, and Isaiah Williams if they want to win their first game of the year against Carolina. Rookie tight end Mason Taylor could easily lead the Jets in targets this week with Wilson out. It's hard to recommend Reynolds or anyone else on Sunday for a flex spot in fantasy in what has been a bad Jets passing offense this year.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) is "likely" to play in Monday's Week 7 contest against the San Francisco 49ers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Evans is currently listed as questionable but continues to trend in the right direction after being a full participant in practice on Saturday. The 32-year-old has played in three of the Bucs' six games so far, catching 14 passes for 140 yards and one touchdown. He could be joined on the field by rookie sensation Emeka Egbuka (hamstring), who reportedly has "a real chance to play," as well. The two have shown that they can co-exist, with both ranking as strong WR2 options in their return from injuries. In addition to his fantasy outlook, all eyes are on Evans' quest for a 12th consecutive 1,000-yard season. He is 860 yards away with 11 games to go, meaning he'd need to average at least 78.2 yards per game for the rest of the year. He hasn't averaged more than 78.2 yards per game since 2019, but anything is possible in a high-powered Bucs offense that loves to throw the football.

New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs (chest) is active for Week 7's game against the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Spin: Diggs had been listed as questionable on the injury report after logging two limited practice sessions and one full session during the week. He should see a decent number of targets this afternoon and can be deployed as a WR2 or WR3 option in fantasy leagues.

The Miami Dolphins have declared CB Storm Duck, DB Elijah Campbell, WR Tahj Washington, LB Matt Judon, WR Cedrick Wilson, QB Zach Wilson and DT Zeek Biggers inactive for Week 7.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is officially active for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New Orleans Saints. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction ahead of kickoff. The 26-year-old is coming off a phenomenal performance in which he totaled 108 rushing yards, 67 receiving yards, and one touchdown. The outburst vaulted him to the overall RB18 in fantasy scoring this year. He remains a mid-range RB2 option in a potentially positive game script situation against the Saints.

Chicago Bears running back Travis Homer (calf) is officially active for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New Orleans Saints. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after being a full participant in practice all week long. The veteran running back is making his season debut this week, but he'll likely be relegated to a role on special teams. After all, D'Andre Swift has a firm hold on the lead-back role while Kyle Monangai and Roschon Johnson are steady depth options. Fantasy managers should leave Homer on waivers in all formats.

After testing his knee and toe injuries during pre-game warmups on Sunday, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) has been ruled out for the Week 7 game against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. With their bye coming next week, the Raiders are erring on the side of caution with Meyers. He did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday. Still, he was able to practice in a limited capacity on Friday, which means he should be ready to return when the Raiders resume play in Week 9 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Raiders will also be without star tight end Brock Bowers (knee) for a third straight game on Sunday, so Vegas will be looking to receiver Tre Tucker and tight end Michael Mayer to step up, in addition to rookie receivers Dont'e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech. Meyers, who asked for a trade earlier this season, has had a season to forget so far in 2025.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (quadricep) is officially active for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New York Jets. He had been listed as questionable but was widely expected to play after being a full participant in practice all week long. Coker is making his season debut and should immediately step into a significant role within Carolina's offense. Panthers general manager Dan Morgan and head coach Dave Canales have both been very clear about their optimism in Coker this season, with the former indicating that the receiver should step into the starting slot receiver role. The team's trust in Coker was most clear when they traded away Adam Thielen this past summer, opening the door for Coker to handle even more snaps. He's still behind Tetairoa McMillan on the depth chart, but he has a chance to carve out low-end WR3/flex value, especially if McMillan is shadowed by Sauce Gardner.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) is officially inactive for the Week 7 divisional contest on Sunday versus the Kansas City Chiefs. In addition, the Raiders will be without wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe), which will make things even more difficult for a struggling Raiders passing game against a stout Chiefs defense. Bowers will miss his third straight game due to a knee injury that he initially sustained in the season opener. Vegas has its bye coming in Week 8, though, so there is optimism that the second-year TE will be ready to return in Week 9 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's been a disappointing sophomore year so far for anyone who took Bowers early in fantasy drafts. Michael Mayer caught his first touchdown of the year in Week 6 and figures to be heavily targeted by quarterback Geno Smith again this week. He's in play as a TE2 streamer against KC.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New York Jets. He is a healthy scratch for the first time this season. The veteran receiver had amassed 15 catches, 89 yards, and two touchdowns through six games this year, headlined by a Week 2 contest against Arizona in which he caught seven passes and found the end zone twice. Renfrow's role had gradually declined since then. Now, with Jalen Coker healthy and active as the Panthers' slot receiver, the team decided it had no need for Renfrow heading into a clash with the Jets. Renfrow can be dropped in all fantasy leagues.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (hamstring) is expected to play in the Week 7 game even though he is listed as questionable.

Fantasy Spin: Evans will be returning to the lineup after missing some time because of the injury and should see a good amount targets in the passing game. He can be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter (heel) is active for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Paul Allen of KFAN1003. He had been listed as questionable after logging a pair of limited practices. The 24-year-old has played snaps in four games this season, not including when he was ejected in Week 1, and when he missed Week 6 due to injury. He has 10 tackles so far this season. Carter will return to action Sunday afternoon and provide a key boost to the Eagles as they look to slow down a surging Vikings squad.

Carolina Panthers running backs Chuba Hubbard and Rico Dowdle will trade series early in Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New York Jets, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. By alternating drives, the two running backs will have an opportunity to maintain fresh legs, while the coaching staff gets a chance to decide which running back to lean on later in the game. Both running backs may play quite well to start the game and then continue to contribute in a committee for the rest of the contest. However, by alternating series, Hubbard and Dowdle will each at least have a chance to establish themselves as the primary option out of this backfield. Hubbard and Dowdle both rank as solid RB3 options this week, and they could both have standalone value in an offense that has become increasingly run-heavy. Hubbard has appeal since he was the Panthers' starter before his calf injury and is first on the depth chart, while Dowdle has appeal because he exploded for 473 yards and two touchdowns in the two weeks that Hubbard missed.
