Whom should you start? Whom should you sit? To help you set your fantasy football lineups and to avoid starting a player who won't be playing, we'll post fantasy-relevant updates and analysis here as NFL teams release their official inactives lists, typically about 90 minutes before kickoff. Any rankings cited in this column come from our ESPN Fantasy staff ranks.
Lamar Jackson, QB, BAL: Ankle -- Inactive
Impact: Tyler Huntley gets the start in his place.
Marquise Brown, WR, BAL: Illness -- Active
Impact: Even with the QB situation here, if he's starting for Baltimore, he should be starting for you.
Sammy Watkins, WR, BAL: COVID-19 -- Not playing
Impact: Rashod Bateman and Devin Duvernay both become better fantasy options.
Melvin Gordon III, RB, DEN: Thumb -- Active
Impact: He was always expected to play, even after limited practice all week.
Javonte Williams, RB, DEN: Knee -- Active
Impact: Likewise, Williams is playing and should split carries with Gordon.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR, GB: Back -- Active
Impact: Despite limited practice time, he's going to play.
Equanimeous St. Brown, WR, GB: Concussion -- Inactive
Impact: Allen Lazard and Amari Rodgers would get value bumps.

1 p.m. ET games
Offense
James Conner, RB, ARI: Ankle -- Active
Impact: Chase Edmonds is back from IR, so some sort of split is in order.
DeAndre Hopkins, WR, ARI: Knee -- OUT/IR
Impact: Antoine Wesley might be the "replacement" for Hopkins.
Zach Ertz, TE, ARI: Hamstring -- Active
Impact: He got in some limited practice on Friday, so it's not a surprise to see him active.
Emmanuel Sanders, WR, BUF: Knee -- Inactive
Impact: Gabriel Davis should have Josh Allen's full attention. RB Zack Moss is again a healthy scratch.
DJ Moore, WR, CAR: Hamstring -- Active
Impact: Beware! He'll have a combination of Cam Newton and P.J. Walker throwing the ball his way.
Zane Gonzalez, K, CAR: Leg -- Not playing
Impact: He got hurt in warm-ups and was helped off the field after inactives were announced. Oof!
Tony Pollard, RB, DAL: Foot -- Active
Impact: He may still be limited, so expect Ezekiel Elliott to get most of the carries.
D'Andre Swift, RB, DET: Shoulder -- OUT
Impact: Expect a tag team approach that includes Craig Reynolds and Godwin Igwebuike.
T.J. Hockenson, TE, DET: Thumb -- OUT/IR
Impact: His thumb surgery elevates Brock Wright.
David Johnson, RB, HOU: COVID-19 -- Active
Impact: However, he wasn't exactly racking up the yards before first getting hurt, then getting sick.
Rex Burkhead, RB, HOU: Hip -- Active
Impact: He was not expected to play when the week started, but apparently has improved enough to convince his coaches.
Brevin Jordan, TE, HOU: Hand -- Active

Carlos Hyde, RB, JAX: Concussion -- OUT
Impact: It's "James Robinson Day" in the Jaguars' huddle.
Jaylen Waddle, WR, MIA: COVID-19 -- Not playing
Impact: However, RBs Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed were both activated from the list.
