Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Neither Breida or Brightwell are suggested starts if Barkley misses Sunday.

Steelers’ QB Kenny Pickett is off the injury report and expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens while Pittsburgh TE Pat Freiermuth is listed out for that game.

Rookie TE Darnelll Washington is a gigantic red zone option and could see some extra run while Freiermuth is out but it's not recommended to start him in anything but the deepest of leagues this week.

The schedule lightens up as the season goes on, but Pickett should remain on benches until the offense proves it can be better.

The Giants listed RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) as questionable for Sunday.

LT Andrew Thomas (hamstring) is out again.

Things were looking up earlier in the week but it doesn't seem like he's up to speed quite yet. Breida took control of a fledgling backfield last week but neither he or Brightwell should be started in typical leagues if the RB1 is out.

The Giants injury report again shows that three offensive linemen didn’t practice. LT Andrew Thomas, C John Michael Schmitz, and G Shane Lemieux almost certainly aren’t going to be able to play Sunday vs. Dolphins.

As for RB Saquon Barkley (ankle), he’s feeling better but was limited for the second consecutive day. Not overly optimistic on that one either after hearing Barkley speak, even though he said he was in a “better spot” than he was last week.

Looks like there's a decent shot Barkley will play in Week 5, and he figures to get plenty of run in a Giants offense that is in serious need of a boost.

Steelers upgraded QB Kenny Pickett to a full participant today in practice, putting him on track to start Sunday vs. the Ravens despite the bone bruise in his knee.

Even if Pickett starts, he can't be plugged into fantasy lineups until the Steelers woeful offense begins to progress.

The Commanders skill guys – Jahan Dotson (ankle) and Curtis Samuel (quad) – are healthy and playing tonight, while Bears WR Chase Claypool (other) is out once again.

Both Washington wide receivers had good Week 4 games as the team surprisingly pushed the Eagles into overtime. Each option had eight targets and scored double-digit half-PPR points. Both WR can be considered FLEX options ahead of a cushy Week 5 opponent.

Practice will be the guide for Steelers QB Kenny Pickett.

The Steelers will use practice as a guide to scale how much time Pickett will miss; it could be none, or it sounds like it could be up to three weeks. In deep Superflex leagues with deep benches, stashing Mitch Trubisky wouldn't be the worst idea.

Tomlin on Kenny Pickett. He has a bone bruise and is scheduled to participate tomorrow and the Steelers will evaluate him from there.

The post went on to quote Tomlin as saying, "The more comfortable and functional is, the more work he'll get." It seems like Pickett has a chance to suit up in Week 5, however there is still a long way to go and it seems far from a sure thing. The Steelers have a bye in Week 6 but sit at 2-2 heading into a game with a division rival in Week 5.
