Sure, very hard to say. It’s a great sign though for Damien- especially with the magic man back behind center. Not sure why Rotoworld feels this way but they believe McCoy will be inactive rest of season.

From the Out House to the Penthouse, is that the trajectory here?

He got the "NA" distinction in Yahoo. That was weird. I thought that was reserved for guys that were cut, not just out.

I don’t know... even with today’s fumble, KC still trusted him with the ball a lot unlike with McCoy. No way today’s inactive was due to ‘rest’ for McCoy, because KC’s bye is not that far away, and McCoy never looked tired in the games he played. In my opinion, it’s trust (obviously). As for now, in my opinion, it’s Damien’s backfield yet you might be right about next week. Thinking about this backfield is already giving me a splitting headache.

Coach Andy Reid said RB Damien Williams (personal) 'should' travel with the team to Mexico City Sunday.
Williams has been the Chiefs' workhorse since LeSean McCoy lost a fumble in the third quarter of their Week 8 loss to the Packers, commanding 45 of the backfield's 55 touches ever since. Fire up Williams as a low-end RB1 as the lead back of a Patrick Mahomes-led offense. Darrel Williams and LeSean McCoy would likely form a two-back committee if Damien ultimately doesn't travel.

I can't even begin to describe how ecstatic I would be if he didn't play this weekend. I hope everything is ok for him though.

tackle for loss

Personal? How is that something to be allowed on the injury report? Also, in the world of gambling, they have to be more clear.

Think we'd find out if he traveled before the 4:00 games?

This is the FF analysis from espn FF:
I think this is bad writing by espn FF. This is what Teicher wrote:
But then Teicher came back and wrote:
- So Espn probably jumped the gun. I don't see it confirmed yet that he has traveled.

Having Ronald Jones is part of the reason I traded away Damien Williams. But after getting 20 touches last week I would probably start Williams if I were you as well.
San Diego is a much better matchup than New Orleans. Not sure if/how Mexico City changes that calculus.

I got other options that are maybe half step below Williams that are sure to play, so I'm dipping out this week...smh. Would have like to play him but I can't risk taking a 0 right now at 6-4 in my league.

If Williams travelled with the team I am not sure why you would see a 0 as a reasonable outcome.
Since he travelled I think the assumption has to be that he will be the lead back.

Idk, does travelling automatically mean he's going to play/start? We still don't know the reasons he wasn't practicing. He could be in Reid's doghouse for all we know.
ETA, plus apparently his travelling hasn't been confirmed yet? According to Saints above...

Looks like I might have to pick up Darrell or Darwin for like the 5th time this season. I'd have to drop Dar. Williams though so it needs to be something certain and long-term.

Kansas City's backfield is utterly unmanageable this year.

With it being a family matter, if he travels he plays... At least that's what makes sense to me. Family matter would make you questionable to attend because you may have business to take care of at home. But if he's traveling there doesn't seem to be much of a benefit from not playing except the fact that he hasn't practiced.

The “flew back” part is throwing me for a loop. Is it a typo? Flew back where? Almost sounds like he went to Mexico but came back to attend to a family matter.

Okay....back in the lineup he goes
Man I don’t know. Is it out of the realm that Reid lowers his snaps because of missing the last two days? I guess it depends on your options. I’m starting Brian hill over him just to be safe.
