It moves coming up in a few minutes, but the actives and inactives are out for the early slate.

We're going to tell you what we know and what we think we know for the afternoon and Sunday night football. Giants in the Eagles, as expected, Darius Slayton is in for the Giants. He's missed the last couple weeks for the Giants' wide receiving group. How does that impact things for props and fantasy? I think they're going to run a lot less two tight ends. I don't think we'll see as much Daniel Bellinger. He's popped the last couple weeks. So I think you'll get Slaten and Wondale Robinson and Jalen Hyatt in three receiver sets for Big Blue. For the Eagles, AJ, and they're also down a couple members of their secondary, Paul Sinadipo and Javon Holland, which helps the matchups for Devante Smith and Dallas Goddard, because A.J. Brown is out for the Eagles.

1:16.7

game and Brett Toth was the fill-in guard. He's starting at center today. He's not good.

1:42.5

I think it's going to be a problem for the Eagles offense against Sexy Dexter Lawrence and the Giants' defense front.

1:48.0

Dolphins and the Falcons, we talked about it last segment.

1:50.6

Drake London is out.

1:52.6

It's a terrible blow to the Falcons offense.

1:55.1

And for fantasy teams, including some of mine, including a guillotine league that I really like.

1:59.6

No fun.

2:00.4

Michael Pennix Jr. is also out today. Kirk Cousins gets the start for the Falcons. Jets and the Bengals. Trey Hendrickson is in as expected. Cincinnati's best pass thrusher. He will play. And for the Jets, Justin Fields will start. Tyrod Taylor is inactive. Brady Cook, the former Missouri quarterback, will be Justin Fields backup.
