Outlook Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at Chicago — Potential Return Brings Flex Value
Emeka Egbuka is questionable for Sunday's road matchup against the Bears after missing two straight games with a foot injury, though reports indicate optimism for a Week 9 return. When healthy, Egbuka serves as a primary outside receiver opposite Chris Godwin Jr., last seen commanding 16 targets in Week 6. Because he remains questionable, fantasy managers must check back often for his latest practice and active status.
With Tampa Bay projected in a trailing game script against the 6-2 Bears, passing volume should be abundant. Our models project Egbuka for approximately 4 catches and 50 yards on 7 targets (about 11 fantasy points). With start rates dropping near 24% after his layoff, he shapes up as a solid Flex play if active, though managers should have a backup plan.

Outlook Jordyn Tyson
Jordyn Tyson vs. Browns — Sidelined for Week 9 as Return Approaches
The rookie first-rounder remains officially out for Week 9 due to the hamstring injury that has sidelined him since August, though reports indicate he is nearing a return to practice. When fully cleared, he is slated to step into a starting perimeter role alongside Chris Olave in New Orleans' passing attack.
With Tyson ruled out this week, our weekly projection sits at 0.0 fantasy points, keeping him firmly on fantasy benches or in an IR slot. Still, with roster rates holding near 68%, he is a priority stash candidate who could provide an immediate boost soon; check back often for the latest updates on his practice activity.
