George Pickens Off the Injury Report, Will Play Sunday

Friday, November 13, 12:42 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 10 injury report on Friday, according to Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Pickens will play on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. He was limited in all three practices last week before being held out of Sunday's Week 9 win against the Indianapolis Colts, and he was limited in the first two practices this week. With the news, fantasy managers should be putting the 25-year-old back in their starting lineups this weekend against San Fran. Pickens' return will be a boost for quarterback Dak Prescott and a downgrade for Ryan Flournoy, who had a disappointing showing against the Colts last weekend. Pickens has not been as dynamic or explosive so far in his second year in Dallas in 2026, but he still has 39 receptions for 533 yards and two touchdowns on 62 targets and could be in for a big game in his return to the lineup in Week 10. RotoBaller has Pickens ranked as the No. 21 fantasy receiver this weekend.

Rashee Rice News

Rashee Rice Removed From Injury Report, Should Continue Being Heavily Targeted At Atlanta

Friday, November 13, 12:24 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice led the team in targets and finished second on the team in receiving yards in last week's 35-12 win over the New York Jets. Since returning from injury, Rice has been the featured target for quarterback Patrick Mahomes and that should continue to be the case despite dealing with a knee issue. Rice was listed on the team's injury report with a knee injury this week but it did not prevent him from logging full practices all week. After a third full practice on Friday, he does not have an injury designation ahead of the weekend. Rice should be fully prepared to take on the Atlanta Falcons on the road this Sunday. The Falcons defense has been a tough matchup for wide receivers and soft on running backs, making them more of a run funnel this season. The loss of safety Jessie Bates should open things up in the Atlanta secondary, but the best way to attack the defense will likely still be on the ground. Given the matchup and recent addition of Josh Downs at the trade deadline, Rice could be in for a lesser performance this Sunday. Rice is ranked WR16 in our RotoBaller Week 10 PPR rankings, making him a strong WR2 option this week, but he may have limited upside.
