Puka Nacua at Denver — Groin Issue Leaves Star Pass-Catcher Doubtful for Sunday Night

Nacua did not practice late in the week and is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday night's road tilt against Denver due to a lingering groin injury. The issue is reportedly sapping his trademark explosiveness, though the Rams consider it short term and remain hopeful he can return next week against Philadelphia.

Fantasy managers should plan to keep Nacua on the bench this week, especially with his start rate crashing down to 16% in a late kickoff slot. While our models cautiously project 8.6 fantasy points on roughly three receptions, the doubtful designation makes him far too risky to rely on—be sure to check back for late inactive updates.

Outlook Carnell Tate

Carnell Tate at Giants — Looking for First-Year Spark in a Sluggish Environment

The rookie first-rounder continues to start outside for Tennessee opposite Calvin Ridley, commanding steady volume through his first two career games with 11 targets and seven catches for 65 yards. While he was held quiet in the first half last week against Philadelphia, he remains heavily involved in rookie quarterback Cam Ward's early progressions.

Our models project Tate for roughly 4 receptions and 51 receiving yards on 7 targets (10.5 PPR points) in East Rutherford. Fantasy managers have grown cautious, with his start rate dropping to 26% inside a projected low-scoring defensive slugfest against the Giants. He profiles as a fringe flex option whose ceiling hinges on whether he can secure his first professional touchdown.
