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 AJ Barner
AJ Barner vs. Cardinals — Deep-League Streaming Option in Shorthanded Offense
Barner continues to serve as Seattle's lead tight end with Elijah Arroyo sidelined, logging 10 targets over his last two contests. However, the offense faces major uncertainty with starting quarterback Sam Darnold ruled out due to an ankle injury, leaving Drew Lock under center behind an offensive line missing starting tackle Charles Cross.
In a projected low-scoring divisional battle featuring rain and wind, Seattle may rely on quick underneath throws to move the chains. Our weekly projection slots Barner for approximately 3.4 receptions and 32 yards (7.9 fantasy points). Rostered in only 8% of leagues, he is best viewed as a touchdown-dependent, deep-league streaming option.
