Houston is on a bye so standing pat means taking a zero at te. If you are absolutely dead set keeping 2 Ds I drop DNS for a week and hope he has another mediocre to bad week and pick him back up next week.

First injury report ahead of #Dolphins #Eagles on #SNF.
Expect RB Jeff Wilson Jr. to make his 2023 debut. Jalen Ramsey will NOT play
I don't know anything about the reliability of the source, Josh Mozer.

I didn't realize he had no TE this week. I would definitely drop a defense for a TE.
Very reliable in regards to Jeff Wilson, as his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, is on his weekly show.
That's under the radar and interesting.
Desperate. Currently have D. Foreman in my starting lineup, but maybe shift to Ingram.

i'm kinda buying this. henderson is familiar with the system. most importantly, perhaps he can be trusted more than the rookie + others to protect stafford, which is probably mcvay's top priority.
thinking of dropping foreman or keaontay ingram for him.
Don't think I'd drop Foreman. R. Johnson still hasn't cleared concussion which is troubling since it's been two weeks.
Tinkering with dropping Ingram for one of these Rams RBs myself but it's such a crapshoot.

Henderson isn't even fools gold.
I'm with you - but it's a one week plug-and-play.
Mcvay was asked if evans was on track to start this week - and Mcvay said something like, "I wouldn't say that - all 4 of the guys are possibilities" - and then talked up Hendersons familiarity with offense

Yes, McVay is a fantasy nightmare

Who is saying this? Are they reliable?

On Sirius Fantasy Dirt, Fabiano said he heard Royce Freeman is getting the starter reps in practice. The whole thing sounds like a RBBC nightmare between Evans, Henderson, and Freeman.

RB ZACH EVANS: LOOKS SET TO REMAIN BACKUP WEEK 7
(Rotowire) Evans is expected to serve as a backup option behind Royce Freeman and Darrell Henderson in Sunday's game against the Steelers, sources tell Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Analysis: While he was active for just the second time all season in last week's win over the Cardinals, Evans picked up his first NFL carries late in the contest once Kyren Williams (ankle) and Ronnie Rivers (knee) went down with injuries. Even though Williams and Rivers have since been moved to injured reserve and are set to miss at least the Rams' next four games, Evans doesn't look like he'll be in line to climb to the top of the depth chart, as the Rams reportedly believe the rookie sixth-round pick out of Ole Miss needs more time to learn the offense and acclimate to the NFL. Though he's still expected to be active over the recently signed Myles Gaskin on Sunday, Evans looks like he'll be ticketed for the No. 3 role while practice-squad imports Freeman and Henderson are first in line for work. Schefter relays that Freeman is likely to start, but how the Steelers defense lines up as well as how Freeman and Henderson fare will dictate which of the two leads the backfield in the weeks to come while Williams and Rivers are on the mend. Evans is expected to be "sprinkled in" to the backfield rotation Sunday, per Schefter, but the 22-year-old appears unlikely to get more than a handful of touches.

So, are people still holding Evans over Henderson after this news?
Leroy Hoard
Footballguy
I traded in Evans for Freeman, Henderson wasn't available.
JohnnyU

If possible go an entirely different direction

Footballguy
I would if I could. But I have to believe someone in the LAR backfield is gonna be a viable RB down the stretch. Just trying to read the tea leaves as to who it’ll be.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
I was referring to today
In my 10 teamer, both Hendo and Freeman are still sitting there. I picked up Evans thus week; may drop him, but for whom...?
Henderson picked up last night, but Freeman sitting there.
I have Kyren and just don't feel the urge. I also think Gaskin enters the mix next week creating an even bigger headache.
That's exactly what I just did. I'm fairly desperate at RB, but I don't know if I have the cahones to start Hendo. Likely going with Warren who at least has a consistent floor it seems.

Oh, different story. Unless you're very desperate, there's no way I'm starting any LAR RB. Personally, I'm thin at RB and not even "top heavy", so I'm looking for who I can grab for free today (or hold onto Evans) ahead of today's game to see which dart throw might hit.

I have Kyren and just moved him to IR and added Hendo. I’m not starting him or expecting much, just looking to see what happens. Plus I didn’t burn WW priority adding Evans
Wish I had IR. Nope.
Just see a mess this week. Then next week, the matchup is @DAL. Not good. Would play nobody next week. The following week against GB would be a decent matchup and maybe one guy emerges, maybe not. Then it's the bye week.
May just ignore this and hope nobody emerges so Kyren can walk right in after the bye.

Isn’t Freeman the minute by minute choice as os 11:53 am?I just picked up Henderson in 3 of 3 leagues.
Here's to have him having 1-2 solid games so I can flip him for a bag of peanut MnMs.
In a dream world I might get a WR2 for him, but it would take a big couple weeks out of Henderson.
Yes, but I'd expect that to change a few times prior to kickoff.Isn’t Freeman the minute by minute choice as os 11:53 am?I just picked up Henderson in 3 of 3 leagues.
