Titans' Calvin Ridley (ankle) questionable to return

Field Level Media

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley, who missed the team's previous three games with a hamstring injury, was activated for Sunday's game with the Houston Texans but left after his team's first offensive play.

Ridley caught a 13-yard pass from rookie quarterback Cam Ward, but was slow to get up. Grabbing at his ankle, Ridley was able to walk off the field under his own power and limped to the medical tent. Moments later, he rode a cart to the Tennessee locker room.

Ridley injured his hamstring in an Oct. 12 loss at Las Vegas. He has 17 catches for 303 yards, second on the team.

The Titans said Ridley is questionable to return for the game's remainder.

Value Picks: Week 11

Player Notes
Jordan Love Nov 16 1:20pm CT
Jordan Love

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) has returned to his team's Week 11 matchup against the New York Giants. Love was forced to briefly exit from the game in the first half due to a left shoulder injury, but he has since returned to the game. Love's shoulder will likely remain an issue to monitor, but for now, Packers fans and fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief. If Love should be forced to exit the game again, Malik Willis would take over under center for Green Bay.

Bryce Young

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) departed and then returned to Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons after being stepped on, according to David Newton of ESPN. The former No. 1 overall pick missed a game earlier this year with an ankle injury, but was given the all-clear to return against Atlanta. Young has had mixed results this season, but entered the week ranked outside of the top 25 fantasy quarterbacks and has mostly been a matchup-dependent option in Superflex formats.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) departed Sunday's game at the New York Giants with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder. Love was wincing in apparent pain and dipped into the medical tent, but the team has not yet made a designation about his return. In his absence, Malik Willis stepped into the game and threw a touchdown pass to Christian Watson. Managers will have to wait to see the extent of Love's injury, but Willis filled in admirably last season and could be of interest in Superflex formats if Love were to miss any time.

Marcus Mariota Nov 16 12:50pm CT
Marcus Mariota

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota finished Sunday with 213 yards passing, 49 yards rushing, one touchdown pass, and an interception in an overtime loss against Miami. Filling in for starter Jayden Daniels (elbow), the veteran was solid if unspectacular by completing 20 of 30 passing attempts and breaking a 44-yard run that accounted for most of his rushing yardage. Mariota briefly departed the game to be checked for a concussion, but re-entered and finished the game. Unfortunately for Washington, his lone pick was a big one: Miami intercepted him on the first play of overtime and was able to kick a short field goal to clinch victory. From a fantasy perspective, Mariota should maintain Superflex value as long as Daniels is hurt.

Calvin Ridley

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) was carted to the locker room Sunday against the Houston Texans and is questionable to return to the game, according to John Glennon of the Nashville Post. The veteran wide receiver missed a full month with a hamstring injury and was quickly injured once again upon returning Sunday. The team called Ridley questionable to return, but the cart is rarely a good sign for a quick re-entry. Billed as the team's top receiver before the season, Ridley has just 16 catches on the season, and his fantasy value has plummeted on one of the NFL's worst teams.

Devon Achane

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane put together an excellent fantasy day in his team's overtime victory against the Washington Commanders by compiling 165 total yards on 26 touches. Though he didn't score, Achane caught all five targets for 45 yards and ended the day with 120 rushing yards from 21 carries. As Miami's best offensive weapon, Achane was involved early and often, and he performed capably against a struggling Washington defense. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, Ollie Gordon II scored a one-yard touchdown, the team's only one of the day. Still, Achane has shown he deserves the benefit of the doubt every week, even on a Dolphins team that has underperformed overall.

Trey Hendrickson

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson (hip) is out for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh and additionally may require a procedure this offseason, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. According to Rapoport, Hendrickson is specifically dealing with a core muscle injury and may have further irritated it by playing against the New York Jets in late October. Cincinnati has not ruled out placing Hendrickson on injured reserve, but the team has thus far opted for rehab in the hopes he can return this season. Of note, the veteran defensive end's contract is up after this season. Cincinnati opted to keep him through the trade deadline, but will have to use the franchise tag or sign him to an extension to retain him next season.

Kris Boyd

The New York Post is reporting that New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd (abdomen) was shot and critically wounded early on Sunday morning in Manhattan and is "now clinging to life" at Bellevue Hospital, police and sources said. The 29-year-old Boyd was shot in the abdomen after a dispute turned violent. Sources said the shooter fled the scene. Boyd lapsed in and out of consciousness before he was rushed to the hospital, where he is listed in critical but stable condition. It's a scary situation for Boyd, but hopefully he can pull through and make a full recovery. Boyd has not played at all in 2025 with the Jets after suffering a shoulder injury in August.

Elijah Moore

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Elijah Moore is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 11 contest on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It's a bit of a surprise that Moore is inactive with fellow wideout Keon Coleman benched for missing a team meeting on Friday. The Bills will also be without tight end Dalton Kincaid after he injured his hamstring in the Week 10 loss to the Miami Dolphins. With both Coleman and Moore on the sideline, Buffalo will roll with Khalil Shakir and Joshua Palmer as their primary wideouts. Curtis Samuel, Gabe Davis, Mecole Hardman, and Tyrell Shavers will be battling for looks in the WR3 role, and tight end Dawson Knox should also see a noticeable boost in targets with Kincaid being out. The 25-year-old Moore has only eight catches on the year for 115 yards and no touchdowns in eight games.

Keon Coleman

Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman is inactive on Sunday as a healthy scratch against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11 because he missed a team meeting on Friday morning, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Until then, the Bills planned to play him, but their plans changed after Coleman missed the meeting. Buffalo will also be without tight end Dalton Kincaid after he injured his hamstring in last week's upset loss to the Miami Dolphins. The 22-year-old second-year wideout caught his third touchdown of the year in Week 10, but overall, Coleman has been a big disappointment for Buffalo and his fantasy managers in 2025 with 32 total catches for 330 yards and three scores in nine games played. With Coleman now out on Sunday, Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, and Curtis Samuel should be Buffalo's top receivers, with tight end Dawson Knox also seeing a notable boost in target share.

Jeffery Simmons

Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons (hamstring) is officially active for a Week 11 divisional matchup on Sunday against the Houston Texans. Simmons was listed as questionable for this contest, but he'll make his return after missing the last two games due to a hamstring injury. It's a definite boost for a Titans defense coming off its bye as they take on Texans backup quarterback Davis Mills. Tennessee's defense/special teams unit shouldn't be considered much more than a low-upside streaming option in deeper leagues, though. Through 10 weeks of the NFL season, the Titans' D/ST ranks 14th in the league in fantasy points. Simmons has been a key interior defender for the Titans, collecting 30 tackles (21 solo), 4.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in his seven games played this year.

Cade Stover

Houston Texans tight end Cade Stover (foot) was activated from Injured Reserve this weekend and is officially active on Sunday in Week 11 against the division-rival Tennessee Titans. Stover will return for just his second game played this season. The 25-year-old caught all four of his targets for 22 yards in the Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Stover's return will give the Texans another pass-catching option for backup quarterback Davis Mills, but he shouldn't be on anyone's fantasy radar in his first game back. He will continue to operate behind Dalton Schultz as Houston's primary pass-catching option at the tight end position.

Marcus Mariota

Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota (head) left the Week 11 game early in order to be evaluated for a concussion but has been cleared to return.

Fantasy Spin: Mariota will have a bye next week in case he experiences any symptoms after the game. He will be the starter as long as Jayden Daniels is sidelined and can be an option in two-quarterback leagues most weeks.

Malik Heath

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Malik Heath (coach's decision) did not travel with the team to New Jersey for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He is officially inactive as a healthy scratch. We don't know the details behind Heath's absence, but typically, decisions like these are made for disciplinary reasons. However, it's rare to see a coaching staff leave a player on the 53-man roster off the flight for non-injury reasons. Nevertheless, Heath will be inactive for the first time this season. He has caught all six of his targets for 86 yards this season. His void will be filled by Savion Williams, who should fill a depth role behind Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden.

Calvin Ridley

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hamstring), who was listed as questionable for Week 11 against the division-rival Houston Texans, is officially active on Sunday after missing the last three games with a hamstring injury. It's good news for a Titans team coming off their bye, but fantasy managers probably still aren't very excited to get the 30-year-old veteran back into their starting lineups. Ridley just hasn't shown much chemistry with rookie quarterback Cameron Ward, as he enters Sunday's action with only 16 catches for 290 yards and no touchdowns in six games in his second year in Tennessee. In addition to Ridley's disappointing 2025 campaign, the matchup against one of the best defenses in the NFL in the Texans makes him more of a WR5 in fantasy in his return. Ridley's return is also bad news for those considering rookies Elic Ayomanor or Chimere Dike as streaming options.

Matthew Golden

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's Week 11 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable following three consecutive limited practices. The 22-year-old is returning from a one-week absence. Through eight games this year, he has just 23 catches for 262 yards, and he's still looking for his first career touchdown. The first-round pick has not yet lived up to expectations, ranking as the overall WR72 in PPR leagues so far. He can be benched or dropped in most redraft leagues.
