Mark Andrews News
Saturday, October 24, 8:20 AM
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews practiced fully all week and will play in Week 7 against the Cincinnati Bengals. He is coming off a quiet performance in Week 6 and will be looking to bounce back in a big way. The veteran tight end hasn't had the greatest season, but does have an interesting case for a breakout game in Week 7. The Bengals defense has struggled against tight ends this season, giving up huge games to Dalton Schultz (12 receptions for 140 yards) and Brenton Strange (seven receptions for 95 yards). They rank 25th against tight ends in fantasy despite those two aforementioned names being the best tight ends they've played all season, and not allowing a single tight-end touchdown. With DJ Turner and the Bengals' secondary heavily focused on Zay Flowers, Andrews could get more volume than usual. He is certainly a boom-or-bust option, but a potential Lamar Jackson return and a great matchup make Andrews more interesting than usual in Week 7.

George Pickens News
Friday, October 23, 1:32 PM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (shoulder) said his shoulder is good after upgrading to a full practice on Friday, and he will play on Monday night against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles in Week 7, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. "I'm doing what they're telling me to do. So, (keep) doing what they tell me to do," Pickens said when he was asked about what he needs to do to get more involved early in games. The 25-year-old was eased in on Thursday and was listed as a limited participant in practice. Pickens has taken a back seat to CeeDee Lamb so far in 2026 after a career year in 2025, but he has still been productive for his fantasy managers, catching 33 of his 52 targets for 428 yards and a touchdown in the first six games of the year. He currently ranks as the WR19 in half-PPR scoring and should be locked into all starting fantasy lineups for his Week 7 matchup against the reeling Eagles. Pickens has at least 73 receiving yards in each of his last three games and has seen double-digit targets in three contests to begin his second year in Dallas.
