Offense

Cam Newton QB CAR: Foot -- OUT

Impact: Kyle Allen to start in his place. Lower all Panthers receivers.

Greg Olsen TE CAR: Back -- Active

Impact: Will try to gut it out, but with Newton out, who knows how well he'll do?

Hunter Henry TE LAC: Knee -- OUT

Impact: Virgil Green to start. Team also signed Lance Kendricks.

Mike Badgley K LAC: Groin -- Inactive

Impact: Punter Ty Long will continue to struggle in his place.

Bennie Fowler WR NYG: Hamstring -- Active

Impact: Russell Shepard still in the mix for a few targets.

Donte Moncrief WR PIT: Team decision -- Inactive

Impact: Has been in OC Randy Fichtner's doghouse. No need to have him on fantasy rosters any longer. Go grab James Washington.

Rashaad Penny RB SEA: Hamstring -- Inactive

Impact: C.J. Prosise to backup Chris Carson.

Tevin Coleman RB SF: Ankle -- OUT

1 p.m. ET games

Offense

Impact: Nick Boyle/Hayden Hurst may still see some action.

Devin Singletary RB BUF: Hamstring -- OUT

Impact: T.J. Yeldon to backup Frank Gore.

Tyler Kroft TE BUF: Ankle -- OUT

Impact: Still a week away. Lee Smith to start.

A.J. Green WR CIN: Ankle -- OUT

Tavon Austin WR DAL: Concussion -- OUT

Impact: Cedrick Wilson becomes potential fantasy dart throw.

Michael Gallup WR DAL: Knee -- OUT

Impact: Devin Smith will take on No. 3 WR role for Cowboys.

Jimmy Graham TE GB: Groin -- Active

Impact: Will play, but not at 100%. Avoid.

Marlon Mack RB IND: Calf -- Active

Impact: Jordan Wilkins/Nyheim Hines could still see extra work.

T.Y. Hilton WR IND: Quad -- Active

Impact: Was always looking likely to start with few issues.

Damien Williams RB KC: Knee -- OUT

Impact: Darrel Williams gets bump to No. 2 RB for Chiefs.

Tyreek Hill WR KC: Shoulder -- OUT

Impact: Arm out of sling. Long shot to return next week.

Albert Wilson WR MIA: Calf -- OUT

Impact: Preston Williams sees a value jump.

James White RB NE: Personal -- OUT

Impact: White's wife is about to give birth. Patriots use a cavalcade of backs, so it's hard to know who benefits most. It certainly won't hurt the value of either Sony Michel or Rex Burkhead.

Matt LaCosse TE NE: Ankle -- Inactive

Impact: Has very little fantasy upside even when he does play.

Ryan Izzo TE NE: Calf -- Active

Impact: Even less value than teammate LaCosse.

Impact: Likely back Week 5. Luke Falk gets call.

Ty Montgomery RB NYJ: Personal -- Active

Alshon Jeffery WR PHI: Calf -- Inactive

Impact: J.J. Arcega-Whiteside should see huge boost in value.

Dallas Goedert TE PHI: Calf -- Active

Impact: Could have impact given all the Eagles' WR woes.
