Updated Oct 27, 6:21 AM ET.

  • : Tank Dell: IR to Questionable (Knee - ACL + MCL, Surgery) (Sleeper injury feed)
  • : Dontayvion Wicks: Questionable to Out (Ankle) (Sleeper injury feed)

Start Dontayvion Wicks: he has been on the field this season, 79 percent of the snaps, and Tank Dell has no snap on record yet. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
