Outlook Demarcus Robinson
Demarcus Robinson vs. Raiders — Opportunity knocks amid depleted receiver room
Demarcus Robinson is poised to make his return from injured reserve after practicing this week, having missed action since Week 2 with a high ankle sprain. His activation could not come at a better time for San Francisco, as starting wideouts Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel Sr. have already been ruled out. If active, Robinson slides into a prominent perimeter role alongside Jacob Cowing and tight end George Kittle.
While our models currently project him at zero fantasy points due to his questionable tag, Robinson carries upside in deep formats. San Francisco enters as heavy home favorites in an expected high-scoring environment against the Raiders. With only a 2% start rate, he is primarily a stash or desperation flex, but check back before kickoff to confirm he is officially activated.

Outlook Omar Cooper
Omar Cooper at Kansas City — Opportunity Knocks with Garrett Wilson Sidelined
After posting consecutive 100-yard performances, the dynamic rookie came crashing down to earth with zero targets against Las Vegas. However, the offense needs him to rebound quickly with top receiver Garrett Wilson ruled out due to a concussion, elevating Cooper's role as the starting slot receiver. Trailing as heavy road underdogs against the Chiefs, the Jets should be forced into a pass-heavy game script.
While fantasy managers grew hesitant following his recent goose egg, pushing his start rate down to 20%, the upside remains undeniable. Our weekly projection lands him at 10.6 fantasy points on roughly 4 receptions and 52 yards. With Wilson sidelined, Cooper profiles as an intriguing flex play who could easily exceed expectations if he commands vacated targets.
