| 11/27/2024 7:13:00 PM | Metcalf didn't practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. |
| As the Seahawks opened Week 13 preparations, both Metcalf and Tyler Lockett (knee) are sitting out due to new health concerns. As a result, the team's ensuing practice reports Thursday and Friday likely will be key for who among the pair may be in danger of missing Sunday's game at the Jets. Since returning from an MCL sprain, Metcalf has gathered in 11 of 14 targets for 129 yards and no touchdowns over the last two contests. | |
| 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 3:53:00 PM | Cooper (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Dolphins, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. |
| The rookie linebacker from Texas A&M sustained a hamstring injury in practice last week and is now set to miss his second consecutive game in Week 13. Isaiah McDuffie, who would typically step in for Cooper on Green Bay's defense, is also listed as questionable with an ankle injury. If McDuffie is sidelined Thursday night, Eric Wilson will likely start alongside Quay Walker in the Packers' linebacker corps. | |
| 11/27/2024 11:25:00 AM | Travis has dealt with setbacks in his recovery from the grisly ankle injury he sustained last season, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. |
| Travis began the year on the reserve/non-football injury list with no timetable for return, and now it's confirmed that his next chance to suit up won't come until 2025. Until then, Aaron Rodgers will continue to be backed up by Tyrod Taylor, with Adrian Martinez standing by on the practice squad. | |
| 11/26/2024 2:07:00 PM | Smith-Schuster reeled in one of his two targets for six yards during Sunday's 30-27 victory versus the Panthers. |
| While Smith-Schuster was third among wide receivers in terms of reps -- 41 snaps for a 55 percent snap share -- he was unable to do much with them. The 28-year-old wideout has turned in just one catch in each of the last two games, totaling a combined 14 yards. Barring injuries to other top targets in the passing attack, Smith-Schuster can likely be left on the waiver wire in the majority of fantasy formats. | |
| 11/26/2024 10:07:00 AM | Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Monday that Rodgers will "absolutely" start Sunday's game against the Seahawks, while noting that the Jets have had no internal discussions of shutting the veteran quarterback down for the season, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. |
| Though the 3-8 Jets are close to being mathematically eliminated from playoff contention coming out of a Week 12 bye, Rodgers looks poised to continue directing the offense, even while he's probably operating at less than full health after having contended with knee, hamstring and ankle injuries in September and October. Rodgers' condition looked as though it might have improved after he was a full participant in practices ahead of both of the Jets' past two games, but it wasn't evident in his performance, as he threw for under 200 yards in losses to the Cardinals and Colts heading into the bye week. Rodgers, who will turn 41 years old next week, recently said he plans to keep playing in 2025, but a return to the Jets could be unlikely in light of how the season has transpired. Rodgers remains under contract with the Jets through 2025, but since none of his salary is guaranteed, the organization would be able to easily move on from him this offseason. | |
| 11/26/2024 10:07:00 AM | Wicks was targeted twice and had one reception for 25 yards in Sunday's 38-10 victory over the 49ers. |
| Wicks was shut out in back-to-back appearances leading up to Sunday's contest, but he got back on the board with a long reception in the fourth quarter of the game. Opportunities have been lacking for Wicks, who has just three 20-yard receptions in 2024 after racking up 11 of those across 15 regular-season games in 2023. He could see a boost in targets in Week 13 if Romeo Doubs (concussion) is unable to play, but he will enter with just three receptions for 36 yards across his last four appearances, and he will take on a Miami defense that has shut down wideouts as well as anyone. | |
| 11/26/2024 1:16:00 AM | McLaughlin connected on his only field-goal attempt (23 yards) and made three of four extra-point tries in the Buccaneers' 30-7 win over the Giants on Sunday. |
| McLaughlin drilled a chip shot field-goal try early in the second quarter but went on to miss his second PAT attempt of the season following Baker Mayfield's 10-yard touchdown run just before halftime. McLaughlin pushed his success rate on field goals to a career-best 94.4 percent with Sunday's sole make, and he could be in for an even busier afternoon in a Week 13 road matchup against the vulnerable Panthers defense. | |
| 11/25/2024 11:37:00 PM | Cross recorded 14 tackles (six solo), including two for a loss, in Sunday's 24-6 defeat to the Lions. |
| The safety has played on nearly every defensive snap this season and is second only to his teammate, Zaire Franklin, in the NFL in tackles with 116 (Franklin has 123). Cross also has three pass breakups, including two interceptions, and a forced fumble. | |
| 11/25/2024 3:38:00 PM | Wright had seven carries for 28 yards during Sunday's 34-15 win over the Patriots. He failed to secure his only target. |
| Wright seems to have secured the No. 2 role in Miami's backfield behind De'Von Achane, who rushed 10 times for 32 yards but scored twice through the air while securing three of four targets for 24 yards. Veteran Raheem Mostert, meanwhile, had just two carries for five yards. Wright has been impressive in limited opportunities, but Achane's extreme efficiency in scoring situations means the Dolphins' remaining backfield opportunities aren't especially high-value for fantasy purposes. Wright will look to continue building momentum Thursday versus the Packers. | |
| 11/25/2024 1:39:00 PM | Winfield recorded six tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-7 win against the Giants. |
| Winfield tallied his second sack of the season in Week 12, though it came on a third down late in the fourth quarter with the game already well in hand for the Buccaneers. He projects as a solid IDP option in most formats going into a Week 13 matchup at Carolina. | |
| 11/24/2024 11:49:00 PM | Worthy recorded four receptions on six targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Panthers. He added one rush for five yards. |
| Worthy finished second on the team with six targets, his highest mark since Week 8. However, he continued to struggle to connect with Patrick Mahomes on deep targets, as three of his four catches went for 12 yards or fewer. Given his limited volume and lack of explosiveness, Worthy is difficult to trust despite topping 50 yards from scrimmage in consecutive games for the first time this season. | |
| 11/24/2024 10:31:00 PM | Edmunds tallied nine tackles (four solo) and defended a pass in the Bears' 30-27 overtime loss to the Vikings on Sunday. |
| This was only the third time all season that the Edmunds recorded more than seven tackles. The linebacker remains a player who typically posts 4-6 stops with occasional upside. | |
| 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 4:57:00 PM | Mahomes completed 27 of 37 passes for 269 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Panthers. He added five rushes for 60 yards. |
| Mahomes had an exceptional first half, during which he completed 19 of 24 passes for two touchdowns -- both of which went to Noah Gray -- and 207 yards. The Chiefs only ran 28 plays in the second half, which slowed his line a bit. However, Mahomes still delivered when needed by scrambling for a 33-yard gain with only 38 seconds remaining to set up the game-winning field goal. He now has three touchdowns in three of his last four games while reaching 300 total yards on two occasions in that span. | |
| 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. | |
| 11/22/2024 12:02:00 AM | Harris rushed 16 times for 41 yards and brought in both targets for 13 yards in the Steelers' 24-19 loss to the Browns on Thursday night. |
| The Browns' defense came into the night with some extreme home/road splits against the run, and Cleveland's typically stout work against opposing ground attacks at Huntington Bank Field continued to Harris' detriment Thursday. The fourth-year pro was constantly stymied at or near the line of scrimmage, with his longest run going for a modest 11 yards. Harris' yardage total was his lowest since Week 4, but he should have a good opportunity to bounce back in a Week 13 road matchup against a more giving Bengals defense on Sunday, Dec. 1. | |
| 11/18/2024 8:21:00 PM | Tranquill finished with eight tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 30-21 loss to the Bills. |
| The linebacker also played on more than 70 percent of the defensive snaps for the 10th time in as many games this season. Tranquill has 57 tackles (32 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and a fumble recovery this season. | |
| 11/18/2024 11:16:00 AM | Allen rushed twice for six yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Colts. |
| Allen worked as a distant No. 2 behind Breece Hall, who turned 16 carries and seven targets into 121 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. As long as Hall's healthy, Allen's little more than an insurance policy to be stashed on fantasy benches. | |
| 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 6:20:00 PM | Kamara carried the ball 16 times for 67 yards and caught all four of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns. |
| The Saints' ground game dominated, but it wasn't Kamara leading the way, as Taysom Hill erupted for 138 rushing yards and three TDs. It's the first time since Week 7 that Kamara hasn't reached 100 scrimmage yards, but his TD drought stands at five games. He'll get a chance to recharge his batteries during a Week 12 bye. | |
| 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. | |
| 11/14/2024 7:08:00 PM | Overshown (knee) was a full practice participant Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. |
| Overshown underwent X-rays on his knee following the Cowboys' Week 10 loss to the Eagles. He was diagnosed with bursitis in his right knee, but that doesn't appear to be a major issue as he was able to practice Thursday without limitations. Unless he suffers a setback, Overshown should suit up against Houston on Monday. In the three games since Dallas' Week 7 bye, Overshown has logged 26 tackles (14 solo), including 3.0 sacks. | |
| 11/12/2024 8:23:00 PM | McDuffie finished Sunday's 14-13 win over the Broncos with six tackles (five solo). |
| McDuffie's six tackles Sunday tied a season high, and the third-year cornerback has played every single defensive snap across the Chiefs' nine regular-season games. For the year, he's up to 34 tackles (22 solo) and five pass defenses. | |
| 10/23/2024 1:12:00 PM | Wentz played one of the Chiefs' 70 snaps on offense in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers. |
| Signed to a one-year, $3.33 million contract in April, Wentz emerged from the preseason as the winner of the competition for the backup role behind starting quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Wentz got the chance to make his Chiefs debut in the second quarter, when head coach Andy Reid dialed up a unique two-quarterback formation near the goal line featuring both Mahomes and Wentz. Wentz took the snap and handed the ball off to Kareem Hunt, who was stopped at the one-yard line. | |
| 8/11/2024 1:59:00 PM | Taylor completed one of two passes for minus-1 yard in Saturday's 20-17 preseason win over the Commanders. |
| Taylor played the first two drives with the Jets holding out most of their starters, including Aaron Rodgers. The veteran backup didn't do much of note in his Jets debut, but Taylor isn't in any danger of losing the backup role to Jordan Travis (ankle) or Andrew Peasley, the latter of whom threw a touchdown pass on the next drive after Taylor exited the game. Taylor will likely see more extensive action in Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers. | |
