Fantasy football Week 10 wide receiver rankings
Tyreek Hill (wrist) was added to the injury report on Friday and did not take part in the Dolphins' last two practices. Complicating matters, he's expected to be a game-time decision on Monday night.
The Texans' Nico Collins (hamstring) has been activated off injured reserve, but is a game-time call for Sunday night's game vs. the Lions.
Amari Cooper (wrist) is inactive. Keon Coleman (wrist) is also out. Mack Hollins figures to get more targets as a result.
CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) does not have an injury designation for Sunday.
Drake London exited early in Week 9 with a hip pointer, but is expected to play. If he can't go, Ray-Ray McCloud would move up in the rankings.
A.J. Brown apparently avoided serious injury as tests on his knee came back clean. He's still questionable for Sunday at Dallas.
Chris Olave (concussion) has been put on injured reserve.
Darius Slayton did not clear the concussion protocol and didn't make the Giants' trip to Munich.
Tee Higgins (quadriceps) did not practice Tuesday and is in danger of missing a third consecutive game Thursday at Baltimore.
