Welcome back, everybody, to the Football Guys Daily Update. You give us 10 minutes. We'll give you everything you need to know to make you the most informed fantasy football player in your league. I'm Mike Dempsey and with Football Guy's own Bob Harris. All right, Bob, let's start off with a look back at the news coming out of Monday Night Football. Commander's wide out, Terry McLaurin returned from a four-game absence in Kansas City, Mike. He scored Washington's lone touchdown in a 28-7 loss, but left late in the game after aggravating the same quadriceps injury he's been dealing with. He was designated as questionable to return, but never did. On the other side of the ball, Chiefs running back Isaiah Pacheco took a hard shot to the side of his right knee. He was able to lead the field under his own power, and he looked very happy after being evaluated by the trainer. Must have been good news, but this

is one we'll be watching in coming days. Now let's turn our attention to the rest of this week's

0:46.0

news. Thursday night football is going to be first up on the docket with Miami and Baltimore.

0:51.1

Full practice for to a tongue of eye low. He's dealing with that weird eye thing. He's got a thumb issue, but he had a great game this weekend, and it looks like he'll be good to go on Thursday night. Maybe he could do something with that eye every week. It turns out. I've learned out for Jalen Waddle. I mean, could you imagine thinking, should I play Tua? I don't feel so great about him. And then you see

1:12.7

him in the pregame and you're like, yeah, I'm still going to play it. That's what it would take.

1:17.7

But hey, if you did, it paid off. So what about on the other side, Bob? Lamar Jackson, much ado

1:22.5

about his practice status last week. Do you expect him back to face Miami on Thursday night?

1:27.6

Well, he also got a full practice Monday and head coach John Harbaugh told reporters last night

1:32.5

that Jackson is set to return. Also, we should probably build some wiggle room into proclamations

1:37.1

that John Harbaugh makes, at least for a little while. I expect to be back. Either way,

1:43.4

just like last week before he was ruled out, Jackson moves right into the top five in the position, perhaps even higher at the higher end of that range this week. I mean, Miami's impressive defensive outing against the Falcons on Sunday, not with Sanding. I think you'd be rolling Lamar out with Glee. And the good news is you'll have a full range of fallback options. Might even include Tyler Huntley, who fared reasonably well after moving ahead of Cooper Rush to get the start against the Bears. All right. Let's move on from that as the Giants are not going to have to move on from Cam Scataboo for the rest of the season. He had the surgery. It was a success, a long road to recovery for him with the dislocated ankle.

2:18.4

Bob, what are your expectations now for Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary going forward?

2:22.9

I mean, I think the split we saw after Scadamoo left is about right, about a 70-30 split for Tracy ahead.

2:29.5

And he's the starter here.

2:31.1

His production wasn't great, you know, but it was a lopsided loss.

2:34.8

But he has potential as a receiver and he should get some goal line opportunities. And

2:39.3

what's been a pretty much a revitalized offense, our colleague Sigma Bloom suggested

2:44.0

in his week nine upgrades and downgrades, you can get the full version of that on the website.

2:47.6

To use your number one priority or empty your wallet for Tracy, I think at this point

2:53.2

of the season, given the offense he's in, that's not an unreasonable approach.

2:57.3

No, I don't think so either.

2:58.2

You're not going to find too many starting running backs appearing on the waiver
