Los Angeles Chargers running back Nyheim Hines was elevated from the practice squad last week but only played on special teams, with no offensive snaps in the team's loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Hines is expected to be elevated once again, especially since fellow running back Hassan Haskins (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's quick turnaround against the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran will likely spell Kimani Vidal and primarily be used as a pass-catching back during the game. This will be Hines' third elevation from the practice squad, and after Thursday's game, he would need to be signed to the active 53-man roster to play in any more games this season. Hines probably won't see enough volume to matter in fantasy and can be safely kept on the bench.

The San Francisco 49ers released wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (calf) on Saturday. The veteran wideout signed with the Niners in August. However, he wasn't relevant from a fantasy standpoint, catching only four of his eight targets for 22 yards in five appearances before being placed on the Injured Reserve list because of a calf injury. It's unknown what the future holds for MVS, considering he's closing in on a decade of service in the National Football League. Still, even if he signs with a team before the end of the 2025 campaign, he has a long way to go before earning a place on fantasy rosters.
