Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell will be active this weekend for his team's outing against the visiting Las Vegas Raiders, but is expected to see a decreased role, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Mitchell boasted decent output in Week 4 (3/96), but a costly fumble and holding penalty have him in the dog house ahead of Week 5. Fowler notes that fellow wideout Ashton Dulin will take on a larger workload with Mitchell likely to ride the pine for most of Sunday's contest. It's unfortunate timing for the University of Texas product, as he'd have seen another uptick in snaps with Alec Pierce (concussion) out for a second consecutive week. Even if Mitchell can work himself back into the good graces of the coaching staff, he'll resume WR4 duties upon Pierce's return.

According to Joe Person of The Athletic, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is slated to have his practice window opened prior to Wednesday's practice. This is an excellent sign for the second-year wideout, as he has been on the injured reserve since the beginning of the season. While he was unable to return in Week 5, it appears Coker will be in the mix to make his season debut this weekend when the Panthers face the Dallas Cowboys. As a rookie, Coker showed flashes of potential at times, catching 32 passes for 478 yards and two touchdowns. This season, the Panthers have not had a reliable No. 2 option, opposite of star rookie Tetairoa McMillan, which could open up a large target share for Coker. When healthy, managers should expect Coker to be the primary slot option and carry FLEX value in PPR formats.
Still trying to decide between Mitchell and Coker? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Adonai Mitchell is projected to score 3.1 points this week while Jalen Coker is projected to score 0.0 points.
