| 11/27/2024 6:35:00 PM | Kendricks (groin/shoulder) did not practice Wednesday and is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Giants, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. |
| The Cowboys may have taken the cautious route in keeping Kendricks out of walkthroughs and Wednesday's practice given that Dallas is operating on a short week. Despite the DNPs, Kendricks still has a chance at playing Thursday, though whether he'll suit up may not be known until the Cowboys' inactive list is announced approximately 90 minutes before the 4:30 p.m. kickoff. If Kendricks ends up being sidelined for Thursday's contest, Marist Liufau would be the top candidate to start at linebacker alongside DeMarvion Overshown and Nick Vigil (foot). | |
| 11/27/2024 6:22:00 PM | Smith (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. |
| Smith was sidelined for Baltimore's Week 12 win over the Chargers on Monday night after not practicing all week, so Wednesday's estimated DNP could indicate that he's nearing a return. The All-Pro linebacker's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely offer the best insight into whether he can suit up in Week 13, when the Ravens face the Eagles. | |
| 11/27/2024 6:13:00 PM | Van Noy (hamstring/neck) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimation. |
| Van Noy played 29 defensive snaps and recorded two total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Monday night's win over the Chargers. However, it now appears he sustained hamstring and neck injuries in the process. The veteran pass rusher will likely need to practice in a limited capacity Thursday or Friday in order to suit up in Week 13 when the Ravens host the Eagles. | |
| 11/27/2024 4:54:00 PM | Shrader (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday. |
| Shrader has now logged consecutive DNPs to begin the Chiefs' week of practice after injuring his hamstring in a private workout Monday, so it appears increasingly likely that he may be sidelined for Friday's matchup against the Raiders. The Notre Dame product has performed well while filling in for the injured Harrison Butker (knee) over the last two games, converting all three of his field-goal attempts and all six of his extra-point tries. Kansas City added Matthew Wright to its practice squad Tuesday, so he's expected to assume the Chiefs' kicking duties if Shrader is held out in Week 13. | |
| 11/27/2024 4:24:00 PM | Pacheco (ankle) was a full participant in practice Wednesday. |
| The injury report was released about two hours after Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that only a late setback would stop Pacheco from playing Friday against the Raiders. The running back has missed nine straight games since suffering a fractured fibula Week 2, with Kareem Hunt emerging as a reliable fantasy starter in his absence. Reid hasn't commented on workload expectations for Friday in what likely will be Pacheco's first game back on the field. Expect the Chiefs to formally activate Pacheco from injured reserve following their final practice of the week Thursday. | |
| 11/26/2024 12:00:00 AM | Andrews brought in all five targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens' 30-23 win over the Chargers on Monday night. He also rushed once for two yards. |
| Andrews finished tied with Zay Flowers for the team lead in receptions while checking in second to his teammate in both receiving yards and targets. The veteran tight end was the only one among he and position mate Isaiah Likely to record any catches Monday, and he's now posted multiple receptions in eight straight games after back-to-back blankings in Weeks 3 and 4. Andrews' six-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter served as his sixth score of the season, all which have come in the last seven contests. Andrews should be teed up for another key role during a Week 13 home matchup against the Eagles. | |
| 11/25/2024 6:35:00 PM | Brooks recorded nine total tackles (seven solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 34-15 win over the Patriots. |
| The first-year Dolphin continues to prove why Miami made him one of the highest-paid inside linebackers in the NFL this past offseason, as he's posted nine or more tackles in four of his last five games. Brooks has appeared in all 11 of Miami's games this season, recording 95 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and defending four passes. He's expected to remain a viable IDP piece as the Dolphins travel to take on the Packers on Thanksgiving Day in Week 13. | |
| 11/25/2024 10:11:00 AM | Gay made both of his two field-goal tries during Sunday's 24-6 loss versus the Lions. |
| On a day where the Colts were only able to muster 268 yards of total offense, scoring opportunities were few for their kicker. Gay knocked through two chip shots in the first half, but he didn't get any more chances in the second. Indianapolis will travel to take on New England's inconsistent defense in Week 13. | |
| 11/24/2024 6:54:00 PM | White rushed 12 times for 37 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for 10 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday. |
| White had trouble with his efficiency on the ground, as he logged a full 50 yards fewer than backfield mate Bucky Irving on the same number of carries. However, White was able to make up for it with his second rushing touchdown of the season, a one-yard run late in the third quarter. His catch total did tie a season low, however, and the more explosive Irving appears to be making a strong case to potentially earn even more work, leaving White's fantasy outlook for a very favorable matchup against the Panthers in Week 13 at least somewhat murky. | |
| 11/24/2024 5:46:00 PM | Collins recorded five receptions on nine targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-27 loss to the Titans. |
| Collins did the majority of his damage early in the game, first scoring from five yards away midway through the second quarter. He then caught a 56-yard pass to set up a field goal just before halftime. Collins also broke free for an apparent 33-yard yard score late in the fourth quarter, though it was nullified by a penalty-- the second consecutive week he's had a score called back. Despite that disappointment, Collins was more involved in the offense in his second game since returning from a hamstring injury, and he should be an elite fantasy option moving forward. | |
| 11/24/2024 5:21:00 PM | Taylor rushed 11 times for 35 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Lions. |
| Taylor was inefficient with his carries for the second consecutive game and has now averaged under four yards per carry in three of his last four contests. Quarterback Anthony Richardson pitched a dud Sunday, resulting in a poor game script for Indianapolis' star running back. Taylor remains the workhorse in the Colts' backfield, but the offense needs to show more balance against the Patriots next Sunday in order to unleash their top talent on the roster. | |
| 11/24/2024 5:11:00 PM | Richardson completed 11 of 28 pass attempts for 172 yards, no touchdowns and no turnovers while rushing 10 times for 61 yards in Sunday's 24-6 loss to Detroit. |
| Richardson failed to complete 50 percent of his pass attempts for the fourth time this season. The only other game in which the sophomore had a worst completion rate was when he infamously removed himself from a contest against the Texans in Week 8. Richardson showed some life after being reinstated as starter with three total touchdowns against the Jets last week, but that was also against the Jets. Perhaps the young quarterback can get back on track against a three-win Patriots team next Sunday. | |
| 11/24/2024 4:29:00 PM | Irving rushed 12 times for 87 yards and a touchdown and brought in all six targets for 64 yards in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Tampa Bay. |
| Irving turned in another signature ultra-efficient performance, gaining 50 more rushing yards than Rachaad White on the same number of carries while finishing with a team-high catch total and second in receiving yards. Irving also recorded his fifth rushing touchdown of the season on a six-yard run just past the halfway point of the second quarter, and both of his yardage totals represented new career highs. Irving should have a strong chance to put together a successful encore when he takes aim at the vulnerable Panthers rush defense in a Week 13 road battle. | |
| 11/24/2024 11:45:00 AM | Edwards-Helaire is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers. |
| With Edwards-Helaire inactive and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) still on IR, Kareem Hunt, Samaje Perine and Carson Steele will handle the Chiefs' Week 12 backfield duties. | |
| 11/22/2024 12:29:00 AM | Moore brought in three of five targets for 21 yards in the Browns' 24-19 win over the Steelers on Thursday night. |
| Moore's fellow receiver Cedric Tillman exited Thursday's contest in the third quarter with what was ultimately diagnosed as a concussion, which may have helped lead to a couple of extra targets for Moore in the fourth quarter. One of those was intercepted by Donte Jackson at the Steelers' 22-yard line with 4:28 remaining, but Cleveland was able to eventually mount a game-winning touchdown drive on the next possession. Moore's overall numbers actually represented a downturn to varying degree compared to those he'd generated in Jameis Winston's first four games under center, but he could be in line for a larger role in a Week 13 road matchup against the Broncos on Monday night, Dec. 2 if there's better weather and/or Tillman is unavailable for that contest. | |
| 11/22/2024 12:06:00 AM | Pickens secured four of seven targets for 48 yards in the Steelers' 24-19 loss to the Browns on Thursday night. |
| Pickens set the pace for the Steelers in targets while sharing the team lead in receptions with Pat Freiermuth. The blizzard-like conditions certainly didn't help Pickens' cause and helped lead to his lowest yardage total since Week 5 against the Cowboys. Pickens did extend a streak of recording at least four catches to five games, and he'll draw a more favorable matchup on paper in a Week 13 road matchup against the Bengals on Sunday, Dec. 1. | |
| 11/18/2024 1:33:00 AM | Brown carried the ball 22 times for 86 yards while catching five of seven targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers. |
| Brown continues to be the bell cow for Cincinnati's backfield, surrendering no carries to fellow running backs while producing 143 yards on 27 total touches. The sophomore out of Illinois failed to extend a modest three-game touchdown streak, but it's hard to scoff at this kind of production from a player that was likely snagged off the wire early in the fantasy season. Brown will enter Cincinnati's bye week with 957 yards from scrimmage and seven total touchdowns in as many games played (12) as his rookie season. | |
| 11/17/2024 8:05:00 PM | Pitts caught one of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 38-6 loss to the Broncos. |
| Pitts' season has been full of peaks and valleys, and he hit a low point in this lopsided loss. The 2021 fourth overall pick has been held to one catch in two of his last three games, a stretch that began right after Pitts set a season high with 91 receiving yards in Week 8 while scoring his first two touchdowns since Week 1. Pitts will look to get back on track in Week 13 against the Chargers following Atlanta's Week 12 bye. | |
| 11/17/2024 8:04:00 PM | Cousins completed 18 of 27 passes for 173 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 38-6 loss to the Broncos. He also rushed once for no gain. |
| Cousins struggled as the Falcons posted a poor performance across the board before waving the white flag by inserting backup quarterback Michael Penix down 38-6 in the fourth quarter. The bigger long-term concern for Cousins could be the status of wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who exited in the third quarter due to a hamstring injury, though Atlanta's Week 12 bye could provide an opportunity for the team's leader in receiving yards to recover prior to a Week 13 home game against the Chargers. Cousins will look to bounce back post-bye after being held without a touchdown pass in each of the past two games. | |
| 11/17/2024 12:20:00 PM | Butker is expected to return from injured reserve when first eligible Week 15 against the Browns after undergoing a meniscus trim of his left knee earlier this week, rather than a full meniscus repair, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports. |
| A full repair would have knocked Butker out for the rest of the season, but after requiring the minimally invasive meniscectomy procedure, he'll likely need 3-to-4 weeks to make a full recovery. Since Kansas City has already placed Butker on IR, he'll be required to miss at least four games, but assuming he experiences no setbacks in his recovery from the procedure to his non-kicking knee, he should be ready for action by mid-December. The Chiefs signed Spencer Shrader off the Jets' practice squad to serve as their kicker in the interim. | |
| 11/13/2024 11:50:00 AM | Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced Wednesday that Flacco will return to a backup role with Anthony Richardson having been named the team's starting quarterback for the rest of the season, JJ Stankeviz of the team's official site reports. |
| After Richardson was benched following the Colts' Week 8 loss to the Texans, Flacco started both of the past two contests. However, he struggled to protect the ball in losses to the Vikings and Bills, as Flacco completed 67.7 percent of his throws for a respectable 7.3 yards per attempt between the two games but tossed four interceptions (one of which was returned for a touchdown) and lost two fumbles. Despite Flacco's struggles, Steichen previously said Monday that the 39-year-old veteran would continue to direct the offense in Week 11, only to change course on that decision two days later. Richardson has had his own issues with both accuracy (44.4 percent completion rate) and turnovers (seven interceptions, two lost fumbles) over his six starts this season, but the 4-6 Colts are hoping that the two-week benching will have the 22-year-old in a better position to succeed as he returns to the lineup this Sunday against the Jets. Meanwhile, Flacco will stay ready in the event Richardson misses time with an injury over the final seven games of 2024 before heading into free agency this offseason. | |
| 11/11/2024 8:25:00 PM | Williams logged nine tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Colts. |
| Williams' nine tackles tied with Terrel Bernard for most on the Bills on Sunday. Williams has logged at least nine tackles in eight of 10 regular-season games, and he's up to 93 combined tackles on the year, which leads Buffalo and ranks seventh in the NFL. | |
| 11/11/2024 3:49:00 PM | Cooper recorded six total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 16-14 loss to the Chiefs. |
| The 26-year-old was one of four Broncos to record a sack in Sunday's loss, bringing down Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter. Cooper, who just signed a four-year, $60 million extension last Monday, has now totaled 41 total tackles, including 6.5 sacks, and forced one fumble through the Broncos' first 10 games this season. Expect the newly paid edge rusher to continue wreaking havoc on opposing quarterbacks as the season progresses. | |
| 11/11/2024 12:28:00 PM | Okereke recorded 11 tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss against the Panthers. |
| As usual, Okereke paced Giants linebackers in snaps (55) in Week 10, and he posted nine-plus tackles for his third consecutive game. He projects as a solid IDP option in most formats for the home stretch of the season. | |
| 10/22/2024 6:17:00 PM | Penix completed his only pass attempt for 14 yards during Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Seahawks. |
| With the game out of hand, Penix made his NFL regular-season debut. He played seven offensive snaps and completed his only pass to fellow rookie Casey Washington. Despite Sunday's dud, Kirk Cousins has fully shaken off the early-season rust and revitalized Atlanta's offense, so Penix is relegated to backup duties for the foreseeable future. | |
| 10/8/2024 7:23:00 PM | Wilson tallied six tackles (five solo), one interception and one fumble recovery during Sunday's 24-23 win over San Francisco. |
| Wilson grabbed his first interception of the season Sunday and his first since his rookie year with the Browns in 2019. He followed that up by recovering a Jordan Mason red zone fumble that was caused by Jesse Luketa, which led to the go-ahead 35-yard field goal by Chad Ryland 14 plays later. Through the first five games of the regular season, Wilson has logged 33 tackles (21 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two passes defended (one interception) and one fumble recovery. | |
