Analysis: Polamalu is back on the sidelines with a knee injury and the Steelers defense will not be as fierce as they normally are, but luckily for them they are playing a rebuilding Chiefs team, which is ranked near the bottom in every offensive category.49 minutes
2.Chiefs inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The Kansas City Chiefs have announced the following players as inactive for today's game against the Oakland Raiders: QB Matt Guitierrez, CB Donald Washington, RB Dantrell Savage, OLB Mike Vrabel, LB Justin Rogers, OG Andy Alleman, TE Jake O'Connell, and LB David Herron.

Analysis: Sims continues to miss time with a torn hamstring. Rookie Derrick Williams has shown flashes of the talent that had him rated as the No. 1 prospect in the entire nation coming out of high school. But he is currently looking up at a few less-talented players on the depth chart, and will have to wait at least another week before having the... (More)56 minutes
5.Colts | Federkeil placed on IR (KFFL) Paul Kuharsky, of ESPN.com, reports the Indianapolis Colts have placed OT Dan Federkeil (concussion) on Injured Reserve. 59 minutes

Analysis: Todd Heap is active and will play Sunday, however he is going up against a stingy Colts defense. Nose tackle Haloti Ngata is back in the lineup which may hurt Joseph Addai's and Donald Brown's day at the office.1 hour
7.49ers inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The San Francisco 49ers have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Green Bay Packers: WR Brandon Jones, third QB Nate Davis, LB Takeo Spikes, CB Keith Smith, CB Nate Clements, OT Joe Staley, C Cody Wallace, and DE Ricky Jean-Francois. Analysis: Staley and Clements are both expected to return in coming weeks, but are out once again today. Staley may already be the 49ers best offensive lineman, so his absence is a slight ding to Frank Gore's fanta... (More)1 hour

Analysis: With Jones still recovering from his bruised lung, Justin Forsett will get the start in Minnesota.

15.Vinatieri, Adam | Ind (SportsGrumblings) Colys K Adam Vinatieri out1 hour
16.Youboty among Bills' Week 11 inactives (Rotoworld) Bills declared CB Ashton Youboty, QB Brian Brohm, OT Demetrius Bell, WR James Hardy, TE Joe Klopfenstein, DL Marcus Stroud, WR Steve Johnson, CB Terrence McGee inactive for Week 11.

19.Buccaneers inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the New Orleans Saints: WR Yamon Figurs, CB Mike Mickens, OG Shawn Murphy, OT James Lee, WR Brian Clark, DT Dre Moore, QB Byron Leftwich, and CB Elbert Mack. Analysis: The most significant news here is probably who is not on today's inactive list. After being questionable for seemingly the entire season, Bucs' No. 1 receiver Antonio Bryant is active, and will play today against... (More)1 hour
20.Colts move Federkeil to IR (Rotoworld) Colts placed OL Dan Federkeil (concussion) on injured reserve, ending his season. Analysis: Federkeil was nothing more than a deep reserve. He'll be a restricted free agent after the season.1 hour
21.Saints | Hamilton active, to see short-yardage work (KFFL) Jeff Duncan, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, reports New Orleans Saints RB Lynell Hamilton is active for Week 11 and will likely receive some short-yardage and goal line work. 1 hour

26.White, DeWayne | Det (SportsGrumblings) Lions DL Dwayne White out1 hour
27.Pierre Garcon active for Colts vs. Balti... (Rotoworld) Pierre Garcon (ankle) is active for the Colts Sunday, as expected. Analysis: Garcon was listed as "questionable" but put in a full practice both Thursday and Friday.

29.Colts | Freeney active in Week 11 (KFFL) The NFL Network's Jason La Canfora reports Indianapolis Colts DE Dwight Freeney (hip) is active for the team's Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens. 1 hour

Analysis: The Pack won't be missing any regulars today against the 49ers. Ahman Green was stealing a few touches from lead back Ryan Grant, but nothing significant. His loss may mean an extra carry or two for Grant, who has been cons... (More)1 hour
33.Ravens | Heap starting (KFFL) NFL.com reports Baltimore Ravens TE Todd Heap (chest) is active and will start versus the Indianapolis Colts in Week 11. 1 hour

Analysis: Jamal Lewis is active and will start against the Lions. If there is a game to use Lewis, it would be against the Detroit defense. He will be backed up by Chris Jennings since Harrison is inactive. Joshua Cribbs, who was listed as questionable, is also active.1 hour
37.Ngata active for Ravens (Rotoworld) Ravens NT Haloti Ngata (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Colts. Analysis: This is big for the Ravens as they missed their run stuffer against the Bengals in Week 9. The sledding is going to be a little rougher for Donald Brown and Jospeh Addai.1 hour
38.Redskins inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The Washington Redskins have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Dallas Cowboys: RB Clinton Portis, CB Kevin Barnes, C Edwin Williams, TE Chris Cooley, LB Robert Henson, OT Mike Williams, DT Albert Haynesworth, and DE Renaldo Wynn. Analysis: Ladell Betts will start again in Portis' absence. Hayneworth is the plug in the middle of the Skins' defense, and his loss will open running la... (More)1 hour
39.Suggs, Terrell | Bal (SportsGrumblings) Ravens LB Terrell Suggs inactive today1 hour
40.Julius Jones among Seahawks' inactives (Rotoworld) Seahawks declared RB Julius Jones, CB Josh Wilson, OL Mike Gibson, OL Mansfield Wrotto, TE Cameron Morrah, DT Craig Terrill, DE Derek Walker and QB Mike Teel inactive for Week 11 against the Vikings. Analysis: Jones was ruled out earlier in the week, leaving Justin Forsett as the starting running back in a very tough matchup.1 hour
41.Ross, Aaron | NYG (SportsGrumblings) Giants DB Aaron Ross dressed for first game this season1 hour
42.Bucs declare inactives (Rotoworld) Antonio Bryant is active Sunday against the Saints. Analysis: Bryant will play in a rotation with Maurice Stovall and helps Josh Freeman, but isn't a fantasy option on his own. The Bucs' inactive players are WR Yamon Figurs, CB Mike Mickens, OG Shawn Murphy, OT James Lee, WR Brian Clark, DT Dre Moore, third QB Byron Leftwich, and nickel CB Elbert Mack.1 hour
43.Winfield, Antoine | Min (SportsGrumblings) Vikings CB Antoine Winfield inactive today1 hour

Analysis: Outside of Suggs, who will now reportedly miss about a month, the Ravens are very healthy. Todd Heap and Haloti Ngata were both question marks, but they are both active for this big AFC showdown.1 hour
45.Ravens | Ngata active (KFFL) NFL.com reports Baltimore Ravens DL Haloti Ngata (ankle) is active and will start versus the Indianapolis Colts in Week 11. 1 hour
46.Turner, Michael | Atl (SportsGrumblings) RB Michael Turner out1 hour
47.Snelling, Jason | Atl (SportsGrumblings) Falcons RB Jason Snelling to start Analysis: With Turner and Norwood inactive, Snelling figures to shoulder the load against the Giants today.1 hour
48.Vikings inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The Minnesota Vikings have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Seattle Seahawks: CB Antoine Winfield, QB Sage Rosenfels, RB Albert Young, C Jon Cooper, LB Erin Henderson, DT Fred Evans, WR Jaymar Johnson and DL Jayme Mitchell. Analysis: Winfield is the only notable on this list. He warmed-up today with the hopes of playing, but the Vikings are being cautious, and will keep him out one more week. Bernard Berrian has been listed as questionable ... (More)1 hour
49.Norwood, Jerious | Atl (SportsGrumblings) Falcons RB Jerious Norwood inactive1 hour
50.Browns | Cribbs active for Week 11 (KFFL) ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Cleveland Browns WR Josh Cribbs (neck) is active for the team's Week 11 game despite suffering a concussion last week. 1 hour
51.Heap is active (Rotoworld) Todd Heap (ribs) is active for the Ravens' game against the Colts Sunday. Analysis: Heap was a game-time decision, but he's a tough guy and he'll surprisingly play. He's nowhere close to a fantasy option as he's not 100 percent and hasn't had more than 51 receiving yards since Week 1.1 hour
52.Porter, Tracy | NO (SportsGrumblings) Saints CB Porter inactive1 hour
53.Hartley, Garrett | NO (SportsGrumblings) Saints K Garrett Hartley still out1 hour

56.Saints inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The New Orleans Saints have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: RB Reggie Bush, WR Lance Moore, CB Chris McAlister, DT Sedrick Ellis, CBs Jabari Greer and Tracy Porter, K Garrett Hartley, and LB Jonathan Casillas. Analysis: Bush finally appeared to be working his way into the Saints' offense in 2009, but his surgically-repaired knee flared up on him this week, and he will not play today against the Bucs. The defense is sh... (More)1 hour
57.Moore, Lance | NO (SportsGrumblings) Saints WR Lance Moore out1 hour
58.Pierce, Antonio | NYG (SportsGrumblings) Giants LB Antonio Pierce inactive today1 hour
59.Lewis, Cribbs both active for Browns (Rotoworld) Jamal Lewis (ankle) and Joshua Cribbs (neck) are both active for Week 11 against the Lions. Analysis: Lewis was listed as questionable and isn't a very good fantasy option anyway.1 hour
60.Packers declare inactives (Rotoworld) Packers declared RB Ahman Green, WR Biren Ealy, S Matt Giordano, T Breno Giacomini, T Allen Barbre, DE Michael Montgomery, and LB Jeremy Thompson inactive for Week 11 against San Francisco. Analysis: Mark Tauscher starts at right tackle. Green Bay isn't missing any difference makers at home against the Niners. We like them to cover the 6.5-point spread.1 hour
61.Saints | Bush inactive (KFFL) NFL.com reports New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush (knee) is inactive against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11. 1 hour
62.Portis, Clinton | Wsh (SportsGrumblings) Redskins RB Clinton Portis out1 hour

64.Haynesworth, Albert | Wsh (SportsGrumblings) Redskins DT Haynesworth inactive today1 hour
65.Roddy White active Sunday against the Gi... (Rotoworld) Roddy White is active Sunday against the Giants, as expected. Analysis: White was listed as questionable on the injury report coming in, but hasn't missed a game in his five-year career. The Giants have struggled badly to cover No. 1 receivers of late, so White is a high-quality WR1 play on Sunday.1 hour
66.Harrison, Robiskie among Browns inactive... (Rotoworld) Browns declared RB Jerome Harrison, WR Brian Robiskie, DB Coye Francies, LB David Veikune, OL Billy Yates, WR Jake Allen and LB Arnold Harrison inactive for Week 11 against the Lions. Analysis: Harrison has been passed on the depth chart by Chris Jennings, while Robiskie has one catch all season.1 hour
67.Hamlin among Cowboys inactives (Rotoworld) Cowboys declared S Ken Hamlin, PR Allen Rossum, TE Jason Williams, G Montrae Holland, C Duke Preston, OT Marc Colombo and LB Curtis Johnson inactive for Sunday's game against the Redskins. Analysis: Johnson has been flagged for three penalities in the last two games so he's "down" in favor of Steve Octavien. Otherwise, no surprises for the Cowboys.1 hour
68.49ers declare inactives (Rotoworld) 49ers declared WR Brandon Jones, third QB Nate Davis, LB Takeo Spikes, CB Keith Smith, CB Nate Clements, OT Joe Staley, C Cody Wallace, and DE Ricky Jean-Francois inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Jones is a $16.5 million healthy scratch. The 49ers aren't kidding when they say they'll play the players that give them the best chance to win. Isaac Bruce, Arnaz Battle, and Josh Morgan have been deemed more valuable.1 hour
69.Polamalu among Steelers' Week 11 inactiv... (Rotoworld) Steelers declared S Troy Polamalu, QB Dennis Dixon, FB Carey Davis, G Kraig Urbik, T Tony Hill, DE Sunny Harris, WR Shaun McDonald and DE Travis Kirschke inactive for Week 11 against the Chiefs. Analysis: Polamalu is still sidelined by a PCL strain and is doubtful to return by Week 12. Other than that, the Steelers are in decent shape.1 hour
70.Falcons inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The Atlanta Falcons have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the New York Giants: RB Michael Turner, RB Jerious Norwood, WR Brian Finneran, LB Spencer Adkins, OT Garrett Reynolds, DT Trey Lewis, OL Quinn Ojinnaka, and third QB John Parker Wilson. Analysis: Jason Snelling will get the start at running back for the Falcons, and the answer to the question of how much time would be split between he and More)1 hour

Analysis: Sims remains out with a torn hamstring, but still hopes to play again this season.1 hour

Analysis: Portis is still a long shot to play in Week 12 and will share carries with Ladell Betts if/when he returns. Haynesworth's (ankle) loss is a big blow to the 'Skins run defense.1 hour
73.Winfield still inactive for Vikings (Rotoworld) Vikings declared CB Antoine Winfield, QB Sage Rosenfels, RB Albert Young, C Jon Cooper, LB Erin Henderson, DT Fred Evans, WR Jaymar Johnson and DL Jayme Mitchell inactive for Week 11 against the Seahawks.

74.Ravens | Suggs to miss about a month (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Baltimore Ravens LB Terrell Suggs (knee) is expected to miss about a month of action. 1 hour
75.Saints declare inactives (Rotoworld) Saints declared RB Reggie Bush, WR Lance Moore, CB Chris McAlister, DT Sedrick Ellis, CBs Jabari Greer and Tracy Porter, K Garrett Hartley, and LB Jonathan Casillas inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Bush didn't make the flight to Tampa Bay. Pierre Thomas is a strong bet for 18-20 touches and 100+ rushing yards in this favorable matchup. Robert Meachem also gets a slight value bump with Moore (high ankle sprain) still out.1 hour
76.Steelers | Polamalu to miss about a month (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Pittsburgh Steelers SS Troy Polamalu (knee) is expected to miss about a month of action. 1 hour
77.Falcons RBs Norwood, Turner are both ina... (Rotoworld) Jerious Norwood (hip) and Michael Turner (ankle) are both inactive for Week 11 against the Giants. Analysis: Norwood got some practice time in this week, but it wasn't enough to get him cleared for his usual duties. Jason Snelling will be an every-down back at New York. The Falcons' other inactives are WR Brian Finneran, LB Spencer Adkins, OT Garrett Reynolds, DT Trey Lewis, OL Quinn Ojinnaka, and third QB John Parker Wilson.1 hour
78.Browns | Harrison inactive (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports Cleveland Browns RB Jerome Harrison has been deactivated for Week 11. 1 hour
79.Giants inactives for Week 11 (FFChamps) The New York Giants have declared the following players as inactive for today's game against the Atlanta Falcons: WR Sinorice Moss, RB Gartrell Johnson, WR Ramses Barden, LB Antonio Pierce, OL Adam Koets, OT Guy Whimper, CB Domonique Johnson, and CB Kevin Dockery. Analysis: Pierce was diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck on Friday, and will be out indefinitely. He is the only Giants' scratch due to injury, and he will be missed by a Giants' run defense that has already been more vulnerable this season than in recent years.1 hour
80.Smoot to start in place of benched CB Ro... (Rotoworld) Redskins CB Fred Smoot will start in place of benched CB Carlos Rogers on Sunday against the Cowboys. Analysis: Rogers fell for a Brandon Marshall double-move which resulted in a touchdown in last week's win. Smoot is an obviously weaker option but coach Jim Zorn is making a point. It's bad timing for Rogers, as he will be an unrestricted free agent after the season.1 hour
81.Saints | Sharper to start (KFFL) Adam Schefter, of ESPN, reports New Orleans Saints FS Darren Sharper (knee) will return to the starting lineup during Week 11. He missed last week's game with a knee injury. 1 hour
82.Giants declare inactives (Rotoworld) Giants declared WR Sinorice Moss, RB Gartrell Johnson, WR Ramses Barden, LB Antonio Pierce, OL Adam Koets, OT Guy Whimper, CB Domonique Johnson, and CB Kevin Dockery inactive for Week 11. Analysis: There are no surprises on this list. The only injured player is Pierce, who was diagnosed with a bulging disc in his neck Friday and is out indefinitely.1 hour
83.Smoot starting for Redskins (Rotoworld) Fred Smoot is starting in place of Carlos Rogers for the Redskins Sunday. Analysis: Rogers was benched last week after getting torched on a double move by Brandon Marshall. He's apparently still in the doghouse. Rogers is much more talented than the declining Smoot, so upgrade the Cowboys' passing game slightly.1 hour
84.Haynesworth out for Skins' matchup with ... (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will not play on Sunday against the Cowboys. Analysis: Haynesworth didn't practice during the week and was listed as questionable. Kedric Golston will get the start. Haynesworth has been dealing with nagging injuries all season and will miss his first game of the year. Upgrade the Cowboys' Marion Barber in this matchup.1 hour
85.Larry Johnson to get eight carries? (Rotoworld) According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Larry Johnson should get "eight carries or so" Sunday at Oakland. Analysis: Mortensen says L.J.'s touch total will be dictated by the "flow of the game," however, so even eight carries may be an overestimation. L.J. hardly knows the offense after signing with the Bengals a week ago. He'll get some work in if the Bengals jump out to an early lead, but Johnson isn't a fantasy option.1 hour
86.Albert Haynesworth will not play for Red... (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will not play against the Cowboys Sunday. Analysis: Kedric Golston gets the start and is obviously a big downgrade. Upgrade Marion Barber's matchup, especially considering how much the Cowboys emphasized the run this week. Haynesworth's bulk in the middle will be sorely missed.1 hour
87.Falcons | White to play against New York (KFFL) ESPN reports Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) will play during Week 11 versus the New York Giants. 1 hour
88.Simms will start for Broncos against Bol... (Rotoworld) ESPN's Chris Mortensen confirms that Chris Simms will start for the Broncos on Sunday against the Chargers. Analysis: Starting Simms is the smart move for the Broncos, as they don't want to risk further injury to Kyle Orton's ankle. Simms was awful in relief of Orton last week, completing just 3-of-13 pass attempts with a pick. Look for the Broncos to try and pound the ball on the ground today.2 hours
89.Falcons | Turner will not play (KFFL) Rachel Nichols, of ESPN, reports Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner (ankle) will not play during Week 11. He will be inactive. RB Jason Snelling will start in his place. 2 hours
90.Turner will not play, Snelling starts fo... (Rotoworld) ESPN's Rachel Nichols reports that Michael Turner (ankle) will not play on Sunday against the Giants, and Jason Snelling will get the start for the Falcons. Analysis: Turner was listed as doubtful on the injury report and has no timetable for return. He is likely out for a couple of weeks with a high ankle sprain. Snelling and Aaron Stecker will try to fill in as best as they can for the Falcons. Struggling QB Matt Ryan will have to carry the offense with Turner absent.2 hours
91.Kyle Orton (RotoWire) As of Saturday afternoon, Orton's ankle had not recovered enough to play, but the Broncos plan to give him one more try Sunday morning at Invesco Field, the Denver Post reports. Analysis: Unless a good night's sleep sleep does wonders for Orton's ankle, look for Chris Simms to be Broncos' starting quarterback Sunday against the Chargers. Even if Orton does suit up, he'd be a risk and, at best, he'd be hobbled. Factor in that the Broncos kick off during the second set of games this week, and this is a situation to avoid.3 hours
92.Adrian Wilson (RotoWire) Wilson (groin, probable) will probably be at the line of scrimmage on nearly every play on Sunday against the Rams, the East Valley Tribune reports. Analysis: The Cardinals are much more concerned with St. Louis' running attack than their passing game. As a result, Wilson could be on track for a good tackling day and he might get the sack he needs in order to become the 10th player in NFL history to accumulate 20 career sacks and 20 career interceptions.3 hours
93.White, Roddy | Atl (SportsGrumblings) Falcons WR White will play Sunday Analysis: Falcons WR Roddy White will play Sunday against the Giants, a league source told NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.<p> White was limited in practice this week with a knee injury, but he hasn't missed a game this season. He's officially listed as questionable. (NFL.com)3 hours
94.Byrd to take part in pre-game warmups (Rotoworld) Bills rookie FS Jairus Byrd (questionable, groin) will take part in warmups today and is hopeful to play when the Bills take on the Jags. Analysis: Byrd was limited in practice all week. He leads the league with eight interceptions and has recorded a pick in five straight games. The team signed Cary Harris off their practice squad on Friday, and special teamer Todd Johnson would likely draw the start if Byrd can't go.3 hours
95.Johnson to start in Stroud's place for B... (Rotoworld) Bills DT Spencer Johnson will start in place of Marcus Stroud (knee) on Sunday. Analysis: After injuring his knee in last week's loss, Stroud wasn't able to practice all week. The Bills may also be without other starting DT Kyle Williams, who is questionable with a sprained MCL. John McCargo would make his first start of the season if Williams can't go. Maurice Jones-Drew is licking his chops at this matchup.3 hours
96.Falcons' White will play on Sunday @ NYG (Rotoworld) Roddy White (questionable, knee) will play on Sunday when the Falcons take on the Giants in the Meadowlands. Analysis: White has been listed as questionable for the past three weeks and hasn't missed a game. He'll start against a struggling Giants' defense coming off their bye week while getting CB Aaron Ross back.4 hours
97.Strief to start for Saints at LT over Bu... (Rotoworld) Saints T Zach Strief will start at LT over Jermon Bushrod on Sunday. Analysis: Both Strief and Bushrod will play extensively, though. Bushrod has done a more than admirable job filling in for Pro Bowl LT Jammal Brown (hip, sports hernia) this season, so the move is a bit of a surprise.4 hours
98.Haynesworth is a game-time decision Sund... (Rotoworld) Albert Haynesworth (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Cowboys but is still unlikely to play. Analysis: Haynesworth's status has been in question all week with him not practicing and wearing a walking boot. If he can't go, Kedric Golston will start in his place, and it will be a huge upgrade to the Cowboys' running backs, mainly Marion Barber.4 hours
99.Nick Harper (RotoWire) Coach Jeff Fisher continued to be noncommittal on Saturday whether Harper (broken forearm) will be back on Monday night, the Tennessean reports.
