Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier (knee) participated in practice Monday, Nov. 7, beginning the 21-day window the team has to decide whether or not to activate him off the Physically Unable to Perform list.

Fantasy Tip: Carrier isn't really needed in Washington with Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis healthy, so expect the Redskins to use most of the 21 days to make their decision. Carrier does not need to be owned in fantasy.

Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier's (knee) status is uncertain because head coach Jay Gruden said it too early to tell how long the recovery will take. Carrier suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in December and his recovery could continue during the 2016 season.

Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier (knee) hurt his knee in the first quarter Sunday, Dec. 13, against the Chicago Bears. He will have an MRI on Monday, Dec. 14.

Fantasy Tip: Carrier ($1,700, 3.4% of cap) likely won't see much action, especially with TE Jordan Reed on the field, but monitor this situation to see what happens.

Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the team's Week 12 game and is considered questionable to return.

Fantasy Tip: Jordan Reed should see more targets during the game since he is the only tight end healthy for the Redskins. Reed has played well at times this season and could be a decent option for fantasy owners.

Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier posted two receptions for 27 yards and a touchdown in the Week 5 game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Fantasy Tip: Carrier ($1,700, 3.4% of cap) was filling in for the injured Jordan Reed and he did a decent job by finding the end zone and scoring. Still, he is a risky play in FantasyScore going forward even if he starts.

Washington Redskins TE Derek Carrier is expected to start against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 5 in place of the TE Jordan Reed (concussion), and the Redskins rank second in the NFL in tight end receptions this season.

Fantasy Tip: Kirk Cousins ($5,400, 10.8% of cap) has leaned on his tight ends frequently dating back to last season when the Redskins ranked fifth in tight end receptions. Carrier ($1,700, 3.4% of cap) could be the beneficiary and is a potential sneaky source of cap relief at FantasyScore.

San Francisco 49ers TE Vernon Davis (ankle) is doubtful to play Sunday, Sept. 21, and was on crutches until Thursday, Sept. 18. TE Derek Carrier would start in his place.

Fantasy Tip: Carrier ($3,700; 7.4% of your cap) is a basement option in FantasyScore. Use him if you need the cap space elsewhere.

San Francisco 49ers TE Derek Carrier is making progress as a hybrid athletic tight end, according to offensive coordinator Greg Roman. "He played against the Rams last year, held his own pretty good. So, he's making progress... But the fundamentals, the technique, he's made worlds of progress... He's more than a leaper. This isn't broad jumping. There are a lot of things that go into that position. But, he has good range though," Roman said.

Fantasy Tip: Unfortunately for Carrier, he's buried on the depth chart at his position and probably won't see many snaps unless there are a few injuries.
