RB Khalil Herbert to make Bengals debut on TNF

Nov 07, 2024

Khalil Herbert will make his Bengals debut on Thursday night against the Ravens, league sources confirmed.

How big of a role could Herbert play? He'll be a compliment to Chase Brown on offense. He could see a few carries and also has experience as a kick returner. Look for him to have a role on special teams too.

Fantasy Impact:

So it sounds like Herbert will work in as a short-yardage back, leaving a majority of the workload to Brown in Game 1. Herbert doesn't need to be started in Week 10 but odds are good that he'll be in fantasy consideration moving forward. Brown should be locked into lineups in this divisional rivalry.

Texans WR Nico Collins "long shot" to play Week 10

With Nico Collins still not practicing today and not designated to return from IR, it makes him a long shot to play Sunday night vs. the Texans.

Related Players: Tank Dell, Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods, Dalton Schultz

Fantasy Impact:

Since the injury to Stefon Diggs, Dell has been the only reliable piece of this receiving corps, and it looks like that will continue for one more week. C.J. Stroud can be benched in place of a streamer for Week 10.

“He’ll be fine,” Liam Coen says of Baker Mayfield’s toe, knowing he’s been limited but will be ready come Sunday afternoon vs. 49ers.

Related Players: Kyle Trask

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like Mayfield will suit up, but it's a pretty difficult matchup against the 49ers defense. He should be considered a top-15 option for Week 10.

Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell expected to make season debut on TNF

Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell (knee) expected to be active for tonight’s Bengals game barring unforeseen development, per sources.

Practiced in full this week and ready for his season debut. A jolt of speed in time for rivalry game.

Related Players: Derrick Henry, Justice Hill

Fantasy Impact:

We wouldn't expect a ton of usage out of Mitchell here, but it will probably come at the expense of Hill, rather than Henry, if it's a close game. We'll have to see how the backfield splits moving forward, but stashing Mitchell is certainly not a bad idea.
