Here are the key injury updates heading into the early games of Week Nine:
- Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) is active vs. the Redskins. It's a tough matchup, but he belongs in lineups.
- Bears WR Devin Hester (ankle) is active vs. the Cardinals. Facing a poor pass defense, he's a nice fantasy play.
- Bucs WR Antonio Bryant (knee) is inactive. He's been struggling, so hopefully you already had another WR option.
- Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin (ankle) is inactive. Steve Breaston will start at Chicago and would not be a bad fantasy start at all.
- Chiefs WR Bobby Wade is a healthy scratch at Jacksonville. He had been starting and had a favorable matchup, but he won't play Sunday.
- As expected, Packers TE Jermichael Finley (knee) is out. Donald Lee will be the primary TE vs. the Bucs.
- Colts RB Donald Brown (shoulder) is inactive. Joseph Addai will handle a full workload vs. the Texans and should be in your lineup. Also for Indy, WR Pierre Garcon (ankle) is active.
- For the Patriots, TE Ben Watson (back) is active vs. the Dolphins and can be used as you normally would. RB Sammy Morris (knee) remains out.
