Jamauri McClure - Deemed unavailable versus Tulsa McClure (undisclosed) won't be available for Saturday's contest versus Tulsa, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact McClure is sidelined for the second straight week. The tailback, who's played in just three games this season, has 15 carries for 43 yards; he isn't a huge factor in this Green Wave offense.

Garrett Mmahat - Carrying questionable tag for Saturday Mmahat has been deemed questionable for Saturday's clash with Tulsa, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Mmahat took a step back in production in Week 9 with a nine-yard reception at Charlotte. But before then, across Tulane's last two games, he had logged four receptions for 90 yards. Altogether, Mmahat's recent momentum is positive, so he will want to keep it going Saturday against Tulsa.

Johnnie Daniels - Paces ground game with two TDs Daniels tallied 13 rushes for 99 yards and two touchdowns and reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 24 yards during Friday's 38-31 overtime win versus Charlotte.

Impact Daniels was one yard shy of surpassing the 100-yard threshold once again, but his most notable plays of the night were his two rushing scores that extended his scoring streak to three games and put his season total at six rushing scores. He attempted double-digit carries for the first time since Week 4, as he is seemingly carving out a larger role in the backfield. His three receptions for 24 receiving yards marked a season high.

Maurice Turner - Compiles 41 total yards in win Turner notched six rushes for 26 yards and caught all two targets for 15 yards during Friday's 38-31 overtime win against Charlotte.

Impact Turner returned to action after a one-game absence and put up a modest 26 yards on the ground, though he was limited to six rushing attempts. Before sustaining his injury, he had recorded two outings with double-digit rushing attempts, so it is possible the team was easing him back into the backfield rotation. He was also involved as a pass-catcher, matching his season high of two receptions.

Trace Johnson - Guides offense to overtime win Johnson completed 28 of 36 passes for 284 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Friday's 38-31 overtime win against Charlotte. He also had seven rushes for 22 yards.

Impact Johnson posted an efficient game through the air, connecting on 77.8 percent of his passes and falling just shy of 300 passing yards. He connected with Cameron Roberts with 10 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to tie the game and send it to overtime after failing to throw for a touchdown last week against UTSA. The freshman eventually picked up his second win as a starter and did so in dramatic fashion by leading an overtime scoring drive to put Tulane ahead before the defense pulled through to secure the victory. Turnovers continue to be common for Johnson as he threw his third interception of the season, though it did not prove costly. His starting job should be secure heading into a Week 10 matchup against Army.

Impact Barton isn't a factor in this Tulane offense, but he'll be available if the Green Wave need him Friday night against Charlotte.

Ty Thompson - Will sit out the matchup versus UNC Charlotte Thompson (undisclosed) will miss Friday's contest versus UNC Charlotte, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Thompson hasn't played since Week 2, and that won't change Friday night against the 49ers. The tight end will look to return in Week 10 against Tulsa.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Jamauri McClure - Slated to sit out Friday McClure is unavailable for Friday's game versus UNC Charlotte, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact McClure is set to be sidelined once again for the Green Wave after he missed the first four games of the season. The tailback played in each of the last three contests and totaled 15 carries for 43 yards, but he'll be sidelined once again and will look to return in Week 10 against Tulsa.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Maurice Turner - Available Friday Turner (undisclosed) is ready to rock for Friday's clash with UNC Charlotte, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Turner sat out Tulane's loss to UTSA, but the tailback is ready to roll on Friday night at Charlotte. That's big for the Green Wave, as Turner is Tulane's second-leading rusher with 315 yards and two scores.

2026 College Football Coaching Carousel: 35 Key Names To Know

Jamauri McClure - Notches four carries McClure compiled four carries for two yards during Saturday's 42-19 defeat against Texas-San Antonio.

Impact McClure saw minimal involvement out of the backfield Saturday, seemingly continuing to handle a restricted workload. The running back logged four carries in his third appearance of the campaign after missing the opening month while recovering from a foot injury. He figures to carve out a prominent role in the backfield following a 2025 campaign where he rushed for 540 yards and two scores on 83 attempts. He will look to see more carries in Week 10 against a struggling Charlotte defense.

OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Johnnie Daniels - Score lone TD Daniels posted eight rushes for 104 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 1 of 2 targets for one yard during Saturday's 42-19 defeat against Texas-San Antonio.

Impact Daniels was the bright spot in a Green Wave offense that kicked four field goals, scoring the team's lone touchdown on a 7-yard run in the fourth quarter. His 104 yards on the ground marked a season high, highlighted by an 81-yard rush that stood as the team's longest offensive play of the contest. It is important to note that his production spiked due to Maurice Turner remaining sidelined with an undisclosed injury and Jamauri McClure still easing his way back into action following an extended period of absence. Regardless, Daniels figures to see an extended role in the backfield if Turner remains out and McClure continues to be limited.

Trace Johnson - Tough night against UTSA Johnson was 24-for-44 passing for 265 yards and two interceptions during Saturday's 42-19 loss to Texas-San Antonio. He also had seven rushes for -35 yards.

Impact Johnson drew his second consecutive start under center Saturday, though he struggled to find a rhythm against the Roadrunners' secondary. The quarterback threw 44 passes to set a season-high 265 passing yards as the Green Wave fell behind early. He ended up committing a pair of interceptions and faced heavy pressure, taking three sacks. Tulane has utilized three quarterbacks already this season, leaving a thin margin for error for the freshman, though it remains uncertain whether he will start in Week 10 against Charlotte or if another change under center will occur.

Maurice Turner - DNP vs. UTSA Turner (undisclosed) did not play during Saturday's 42-19 loss to UTSA.

Impact Turner was held out of Saturday's contest due to an undisclosed injury, marking his second missed gmae of the season. The 5-foot-10 running back has run for 315 yards and two touchdowns through five games to go along with four receptions for 81 yards and a score through the air as well. His next chance to return will come against Charlotte on Friday.

Maurice Turner - Availability in question for Saturday Turner is questionable for Saturday's contest versus UTSA, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Turner is in danger of missing his second game in the last three weeks due to an undisclosed injury. He carried the ball 11 times for 38 yards during last Week's win over Memphis, and Jamauri McClure and Johnnie Daniels should be in line for increased playing if Turner is unable to suit up.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

John Barton - Will sit out Saturday Barton will be unavailable for Saturday's clash with UTSA, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Barton won't be an option in the passing game for this Week 8 matchup. However, he hasn't been a big factor on offense and is yet to record a catch in 2026, so his absence won't have much of an impact from a fantasy perspective.

OCTOBER 24 • ROTOWIRE

Ty Thompson - Set to miss Saturday Thompson (undisclosed) will be unavailable for Saturday's game versus UTSA, per the American Athletic availability report.

Impact Thompson hasn't played since Week 2, and it remains to be seen when he'll be able to return to action. His next chance to play will come next Friday at UNC Charlotte.

Impact McClure suited up for his second consecutive game after making his season debut last week against Army, where he returned from an early-season foot injury. He recorded six carries for 18 yards on the ground. His workload appears to be monitored as Tulane seemingly eases him back into live action, allowing Johnnie Daniels and Maurice Turner to maintain primary roles in the backfield. It remains to be seen if he will see more carries against UTSA in Week 8.
