Tanner Hudson has been elevated from the practice squad, while Brian Hill was waived ahead of Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. Hudson is expected to serve as tight end depth and should not be considered DFS relevant at this time. With Elijah Mitchell expected to make his return this week and Trey Sermon nearing a return as well, Brian Hill was no longer needed on the roster. Hill didn't play much of a role for the 49ers and his absence is not expected to be DFS relevant.

Brian Hill has been elevated from the practice squad for Thursday night's game against the Tennessee Titans. Hill is not expected to play much of a role on offense and is only slated to play on special teams. He is not expected to be DFS relevant at this point, even on a showdown slate.

River Cracraft and Brian Hill have been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Brian Hill, JoJo Natson, and Johnny Stanton have been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Brian Hill is expected to serve as the backup for D'Ernest Johnson but is not expected to play a major role this weekend. Johnson is still the back to roster and should see most of the meaningful touches and snaps. Natson is expected to serve as wide receiver depth and could also play on special teams but is not DFS relevant. Stanton should also provide some extra depth in the backfield for the Browns but he is not expected to be DFS relevant either.

Freeman will return after missing the previous two games. He should return to getting around 15 touches per game, while Brian Hill and Qadree Ollison will go back to their smaller roles.

Freeman was upgraded to a full participant in practice Tuesday after being limited Monday. He is on track to return, which will hurt Brian Hill and Qadree Ollison.

Freeman has missed two straight games but took a step towards returning Monday, being listed as limited on the estimated practice report. While the Falcons didn't actually practice, his status gives him a chance to return Thursday.

As expected, both Hooper and Freeman were ruled out for Sunday's game. Jaeden Graham and Luke Stocker are similar options at TE for the Falcons, while Brian Hill will get another week as the lead back. He is averaging 18.5 touches, 4 red zone rush attempts and 1.5 red zone targets over the past two games.

Hooper and Freeman are not expected to play this week as they both missed their second straight practice. Jaeden Graham and Luke Stocker will get a boost at TE, while Brian Hill should be in for a large role at RB against the Bucs Sunday.
