Cameron Dickey - Status questionable for Saturday Dickey (ankle) has been deemed questionable for Saturday's clash with Oklahoma State, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Dickey has already sat out two of Texas Tech's last four games, so the running back will want to prevent three of five, especially after coming off just 13 carries for 42 yards game between the games he played. The junior will have just under a week to recover before Texas Tech's night game at Oklahoma State.

Coy Eakin - Suffers broken hand Eakin (hand) suffered a broken hand and will be out for a few weeks, per Nathan Giese of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact Eakin was forced to exit during Saturday's contest due to an injury, which has been identified as a broken hand and will keep him out a few weeks. The 6-foot-2 senior has totaled 24 receptions for 285 yards and three touchdowns across nine appearances this season. He will hope to make his return by the end of the regular season.

Cameron Dickey - Tweaks ankle Dickey tweaked his ankle during Saturday's contest against West Virginia, per Nathan Giese of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact Dickey's ankle injury explains why he only attempted three carries for eight yards Saturday. It's unclear what the severity of his injury is, but "tweaked" doesn't sound like the running back is dealing with something overly serious. Still, it'll put his status up in the air for the team's upcoming matchup against Oklahoma State. More should be known about the injury when the Big 12 injury report drops Wednesday night.

Jett Carpenter - Makes the most of his opportunity Carpenter reeled in their only target for one yard and one touchdown during Saturday's 53-48 victory over West Virginia.

Impact Carpenter made a memorable contribution, catching his first touchdown with the Red Raiders. The score came on Capenter's first reception since Week 5, as he capitalized on one of his few opportunities in an offense that was firing on all cylinders behind QB Tommy Castellanos and a deep group of pass catchers. His weekly volume remains difficult to trust, though finding the end zone could help him carve out a slightly larger role as the season enters its final stretch.

Terrance Carter Jr. - Chemistry with new QB keeps growing Carter tallied four receptions (on seven targets) for 81 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 53-48 victory versus West Virginia.

Impact Carter continued his strong recent stretch, remaining a frequent target for QB Tommy Castellanos. Just like teammate Kenny Johnson, Carter has seen his production trend upward since Castellanos took over the offense, as the new starting quarterback has consistently looked his way in key situations and scoring opportunities. He has now found the end zone in back-to-back games after scoring only once earlier in the season, and his role as a trusted middle-of-the-field target gives him a stable floor in one of the hottest offenses in the Big 12. As long as Castellanos remains under center, Carter looks like a viable fantasy tight end with legitimate touchdown upside every week.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kenny Johnson - Finds the end zone twice Johnson posted five receptions (on six targets) for 84 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 53-48 victory versus West Virginia.

Impact Johnson continued his strong finish to the season, recording his first multi-touchdown game of the year. After waiting until Week 9 to snap a lengthy touchdown drought, Johnson now has touchdowns in back-to-back games. Johnson looks like one of the biggest beneficiaries of Texas Tech's quarterback changes. Tommy Castellanos has shown a willingness to push the ball downfield and trust Johnson in scoring situations, resulting in a surge of production over the last two weeks. With the Red Raiders playing some of their best football of the season, Johnson's combination of target volume and newfound touchdown upside makes him an increasingly attractive fantasy option down the stretch.

Cameron Dickey - Role continues to shrink Dickey tallied three rushes for eight yards during Saturday's 53-48 victory versus West Virginia.

Impact Dickey was barely involved in the win, finishing with a season-low three carries as the Red Raiders leaned heavily on J'Koby Williams, Quinten Joyner, and dual-threat quarterback Tommy Castellanos. Williams remained the clear lead back, while Joyner not only scored for the fourth time this season but also out-carried Dickey in the victory. Unless the workload shifts back in his favor, Dickey appears to be falling further down the pecking order in a crowded Texas Tech backfield.

Quinten Joyner - Continues to find the endzone Joyner recorded six rushes for 10 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 53-48 win versus West Virginia.

Impact Joyner made another impactful contribution, reaching the endzone for his fourth touchdown of the season. Operating in a reserve role behind J'Koby Williams, Joyner took advantage of his opportunities and remained involved in a Red Raiders offense that continues to generate points in bunches behind QB Tommy Castellanos. The more intriguing development may be that Joyner out-carried Cameron Dickey, further strengthening his grip on the No. 2 role in the backfield.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

J'Koby Williams - Continues to shine for Red Raiders Williams accrued 19 rushes for 160 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 3 of 4 targets for 42 yards during Saturday's 53-48 victory against West Virginia.

Impact Williams was once again a major factor, providing his usual blend of explosiveness and reliability. While much of the attention went to Tommy Castellanos' five-touchdown passing performance, Williams continued to make plays whenever he touched the ball and remained a key piece of an offense that looks nearly unstoppable at the moment. The emergence of Castellanos hasn't hurt his value at all; if anything, it's created even more running room as defenses are forced to account for the quarterback's rushing ability. With Texas Tech firing on all cylinders offensively, Williams continues to be one of the most electric players in the lineup and should remain a weekly fantasy cornerstone down the stretch.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Thomas Castellanos - Stays red hot vs. WVU Castellanos was 18-for-27 passing for 362 yards and five touchdowns during Saturday's 53-48 victory over West Virginia. He also had 23 rushes for 102 yards.

Impact Castellanos followed up his breakout performance against Arizona with an even bigger showing against West Virginia. Castellanos was the catalyst for a Red Raiders offense that repeatedly answered every West Virginia score. From a fantasy perspective, Castellanos has quickly become one of the most impactful waiver-wire additions of the season. Through two starts, he's transformed Texas Tech's offense with his combination of explosive rushing ability and downfield passing, posting back-to-back 100-yard rushing games while accounting for a massive share of the team's touchdowns. If this level of usage continues, Castellanos has the upside to finish the season among the elite fantasy quarterbacks in college football despite not taking over the starting job until late in the year.

Coy Eakin - Won't return Saturday Eakin was seen in street clothes and sporting a sling on his right arm, so he won't return to Saturday's game against West Virginia, Jarrett Ramirez reports.

Impact Losing Eakin is absolutely huge for the Red Raiders, and the fact that he was seen sporting a sling means he could be in line for a multi-game absence. With Eakin sidelined, look for Micah Hudson and Bryson Jones to play bigger roles in the passing game.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kenny Johnson - Will play in Week 10 Johnson (undisclosed) is set to suit up for Saturday's contest versus West Virginia, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Johnson has yet to mis a game this season, and that won't change in Week 10. The wideout has been productive all year long for the Red Raiders, with 35 catches for 548 yards and two touchdowns.
