We’ll provide fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here when NFL clubs issue their official inactives lists, usually around 90 minutes before kickoff, to help you plan your fantasy football lineups and prevent starting a player who won’t be in the game. Any rankings in this column are based on our ESPN Fantasy staff.
Official Sunday inactives should arrive 90 minutes before the official kickoff time, with early games starting at 11:30 a.m. ET and late games starting at 2:30 p.m. ET.

ARI’s Darrell Daniels (TE) is out with a hamstring injury. Impact: Zach Ertz has arrived in St. Louis and is now officially able to play for the Cardinals.
WR Allen Robinson II of the Chicago Bears has an ankle injury. Questionable Impact: Robinson’s chances of playing are strong.
COVID-19: Damien Williams, RB, CHI — Impact: He’s back in the Bears’ backfield, although he’ll likely share runs with Khalil Herbert now that he’s been cleared.
COVID-19 — OUT, Jimmy Graham, TE, CHI Cole Kmet gets a second shot to make a bigger fantasy impact.
DET’s D’Andre Swift, RB: Groin — Swift’s suitability is a hot topic, and there’s a lot of pressure on him to deliver.
T.J. Hockenson (TE, DET) is out with a knee injury. Impact is debatable: As the week progressed, I practiced more, which is usually a positive indication.
HOU’s Chris Conley, WR: Neck — Questionable Impact: If Danny Amendola is playing, it’s a hint that Conley isn’t fully well.
Nico Collins, WR, Houston Texans: Foot — Questionable Impact: If Collins is unable to participate, Davion Davis may see an increase in targets.
Sony Michel, RB, LAR: Shoulder — Doubtful Impact: He should play, but how he splits the workload with Darrell Henderson Jr. is unknown.
Ankle — Darren Waller, TE, LV Questionable Impact: Adding to the injury list over the weekend is never a positive indication. Just in case, have another TE option from the late slate on hand.
Antonio Brown, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Ankle — OUT Mike Evans and Chris Godwin have a lot more fantasy appeal than the others.
Howard, O.J., TE, TB: Ankle — Impact is debatable: Friday’s practice was completed in full, indicating a probable start on Sunday.
