| 12/22/2025 11:56:00 PM | Rivers completed 23 of 35 passes for 277 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Colts' 48-27 loss to the 49ers on Monday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Indianapolis. |
| An extra week of practice following a five-year layoff did wonders for Rivers, who looked appreciably sharper most of the night as compared to his season debut against the Seahawks in Week 15. Rivers led a crisp nine-play, 72-yard drive to open the game that he capped off with a 20-yard touchdown pass to Alec Pierce, and he followed it up with another 16-yard scoring strike to the fleet-footed receiver in the second quarter. Rivers' momentum slowed in the second half, however, although he did lead a 12-play, 65- yard march that culminated with a Jonathan Taylor one-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter. The veteran signal-caller ultimately sealed the Colts' loss via a pick-six at the 49ers' 26-yard line with 3:26 remaining, but Rivers displayed impressive command of the offense while connecting with eight different targets overall. Indianapolis' quest for a wild-card berth gets another tough obstacle in Week 17, however, as the division-leading Jaguars pay a visit on Sunday afternoon. | |
| 12/22/2025 2:33:00 PM | Montgomery rushed four times for 14 yards in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers. |
| Montgomery played a season-low 13 snaps on offense as Detroit failed to ever get the ground game going in Week 16. The running back failed to reach the end zone for the first time since Week 12, and he now has gone six straight contests without garnering double-digit carries and back-to-back without a catch. Montgomery will look to right the ship Christmas Day versus the Vikings. | |
| 12/22/2025 1:01:00 PM | Golden rushed twice for four yards and didn't catch his lone target during Saturday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears. |
| Golden has now received just one target in two of the Packers' last three games. He played 22 offensive snaps during Saturday's loss, trailing Jayden Reed (45), Christian Watson (43), Romeo Doubs (43) and Dontayvion Wicks (30). Golden, a 2025 first-round pick from Texas, has had an underwhelming start to his NFL career, catching 27 of 38 targets for 341 yards and rushing 10 times for 49 yards across 12 contests. He likely won't carry much fantasy value in the Week 17 matchup against the Ravens, especially with the uncertainty surround Green Bay's quarterback situation, with both Jordan Love (concussion) and Malik Willis (shoulder) dealing with injuries. | |
| 12/21/2025 10:43:00 PM | Fairbairn hit all three field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders. |
| The kicker's field goals came from 55, 50 and 49 yards, respectively. Fairbairn has only missed four kicks this year, all field goals from 50 yards or longer, though he was perfect from that distance Sunday. The longtime Texan remains a reliable kicking option on a team that often settles for field goals. | |
| 12/21/2025 9:50:00 PM | Gainwell rushed the ball nine times for 50 yards in Sunday's 29-24 win over the Lions. He added five receptions on seven targets for 78 yards and a touchdown. |
| Gainwell maintained his key role as a pass catcher in the Pittsburgh offense, finishing second on the team with seven targets. The Lions did a good job containing him for most of the game, though Gainwell managed an improbable 45-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half when he made the initial catch from the ground before popping up without being touched to reach the end zone. While overshadowed by Jaylen Warren on the ground, Gainwell also chipped in a long rush of 18 yards to help him reach 100 yards from scrimmage for the third time in his last five games. He's also reached the end zone twice in that span. | |
| 12/21/2025 9:13:00 PM | McBride had four receptions on eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Falcons. |
| McBride had a rough go of things Sunday, recording his lowest reception and yardage totals of the season against Atlanta. His 50 percent catch rate also checked in as the worst mark through 15 starts in 2025. The star tight end still finished in a tie for the team lead in targets (eight) in what turned out to be a down day for most of Arizona's top receiving options. The dud did little to thwart McBride's stellar fantasy campaign (109-1,099-10), and he needs just 48 receiving yards against the Bengals next Sunday to set a new high-water mark for his career in that category. | |
| 12/21/2025 8:31:00 PM | Lawrence completed 23 of 36 passes for 279 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos. He added six rushes for 20 yards and another touchdown. |
| Even facing one of the toughest matchups in the league, Lawrence continued his very strong stretch of play. He completed six passes of at least 20 yards in addition to touchdown strikes from 12, 10 and three yards away. While he had a modest yardage total on the ground, he chipped in a one-yard rushing score midway through the third quarter to give him five rushing touchdowns in his last eight contests. Overall, Lawrence has at least 240 passing yards in four of his last five games while accounting for multiple scores in all five contests. Though it didn't cost him playing time, Lawrence did have his ankle taped late in the game, which could be worth monitoring throughout the week, per Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union. | |
| 12/21/2025 6:46:00 PM | Kelce caught one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's 26-9 loss to the Titans. |
| With Patrick Mahomes (knee) lost for the season and Gardner Minshew (knee) not even making it to halftime before going down as well, Kelce was left with third-string QB Chris Oladokun under center, and the duo showed very little chemistry en route to the veteran tight end's worst numbers of 2025. Minshew may have suffered a torn ACL, so a week of first-team reps together could improve that connection, but Kelce -- along with the rest of the Kansas City passing attack -- will be a very shaky fantasy option in Week 17 against the Broncos. | |
| 12/21/2025 6:43:00 PM | Davis rushed three times for eight yards and caught all four of his targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 29-6 loss to the Saints. |
| After finishing as the Jets' leading rusher in the Week 15 loss to Jacksonville, Davis led the team in receiving yards against the Saints. The backup running back has recorded some promising performances down the stretch, but Davis remains behind Breece Hall in the backfield pecking order heading into a Week 17 home game against the Patriots. Hall had 63 scrimmage yards on 18 touches in Sunday's loss. | |
| 12/21/2025 6:37:00 PM | Worthy caught two of three targets for 41 yards and gained zero yards on his only carry in Sunday's 26-9 loss to the Titans. |
| Even with Rashee Rice (concussion) unavailable, Worthy didn't see an increase in his target volume, although it's easy to see why -- third-string QB Chris Oladokun wound up under center for most of the game after Gardner Minshew (knee) joined Patrick Mahomes (knee) on the sidelines. Worthy has gone seven straight games without catching more than four passes and nine straight without getting into the end zone, managing just a 29-387-0 line on 48 targets over that latter stretch. With Minshew also feared to have suffered a season-ending ACL tear, the entire Kansas City passing attack will have a significantly lowered floor and ceiling heading into a Week 17 meeting with the Broncos. | |
| 12/21/2025 6:25:00 PM | Sweat (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game versus the Falcons. |
| Sweat briefly returned to the game after sustaining an ankle injury in the first half but is now officially done for the day. In his absence, Jordan Burch and Dante Stills should see increased playing time during the remainder of the matchup. | |
| 12/21/2025 5:11:00 PM | Chase caught nine of 11 targets for 109 yards in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins. |
| The superstar wideout topped 100 receiving yards for the seventh time this season, and the third time in four games since Joe Burrow came off IR. During that four-game stretch, Chase has hauled in 31 catches on 49 targets for 395 yards but curiously hasn't gotten into the end zone once, and his TD drought stands at six games. He'll look to hit paydirt for the first time since Week 7 in a Week 17 clash with the Cardinals. | |
| 12/20/2025 9:14:00 PM | Hurts completed 22 of 30 passes for 185 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions in Saturday's 29-18 win over the Eagles. He added seven rushes for 40 yards. |
| Hurts had an accurate game as a passer, but he worked primarily in short and intermediate areas of the field. Nevertheless, he managed a 24-yard completion to A.J. Brown and also tallied touchdown passes from five and 15 yards away. Hurts also showed some aggression on the ground, logging his highest rushing total since Week 4. He'll draw a tough Week 17 matchup against the Bills, though he has gotten back on track in recent weeks by tallying multiple scores in four of his last five matchups. | |
| 12/20/2025 1:03:00 PM | Head coach Shane Steichen said Saturday that Richardson (orbital) will not be available for Monday's game against the 49ers, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports. |
| The Colts designated Richardson to return from injured reserve Thursday, but he won't be activated from IR ahead of Monday's game after being a limited practice participant during Week 16 prep. His next opportunity to return is Week 17 against the Jaguars on Sunday, Dec. 28, but even if he does return, he'll likely serve as the Colts' backup quarterback to Philip Rivers. | |
| 12/19/2025 9:35:00 PM | Curl recorded five tackles (two solo) and forced a fumble in Thursday's 38-37 loss to the Seahawks. |
| Curl played his typical role, logging a 100 percent defensive snap rate. He had a modest tackle total, but he still made a significant impact on the game by forcing Cooper Kupp to fumble just before halftime -- taking potential points off the board. Curl has at least five tackles in three straight games, though his totals have fallen significantly since early in the season. | |
| 12/17/2025 10:56:00 AM | McKee rushed once for nine yards and completed all three of his pass attempts for 33 yards in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders. |
| With the Eagles building a comfortable lead by the early part of the fourth quarter, head coach Nick Sirianni opted to hold Jalen Hurts out for the final possession of the afternoon and turned over the offense to McKee. The backup signal-caller proceeded to lead a 17-play drive that chewed up 11:22 of game time but ultimately stalled out deep in Raiders territory on a failed 4th-and-goal run by Tank Bigsby. The appearance was just the second of the campaign for McKee, who is unlikely to get extended run over the final three games of the regular season unless Hurts misses time due to injury or is rested in Week 18 if the Eagles' playoff positioning is secure. | |
| 12/16/2025 8:47:00 PM | Milano registered 10 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, and forced a fumble Sunday in a 35-31 win against New England. |
| Milano put forth a monstrous effort in the comeback victory. He not only led Buffalo in tackles, he also sacked Drake Maye twice -- both in the second half. Milano's tackle total was a season-high mark and his most in a game since the 2023 campaign. | |
| 12/16/2025 4:29:00 PM | The Cardinals placed Knight (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday, Zach Gershman of the team's official site reports. |
| Knight played just one snap in Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Texans before exiting the contest with a left ankle sprain. While follow-up tests revealed no structural damage, his sprain is significant enough to sideline him for the final three games of the season. With Knight joining James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee) on injured reserve, Arizona will be left with Michael Carter and Emari Demercado as its primary backfield options. Knight will be a restricted free agent this offseason after he gained 269 yards on 82 carries (3.3 YPC) and four touchdowns to go with 160 yards and another score on 22 catches over 12 appearances for Arizona. | |
| 12/16/2025 11:28:00 AM | Tranquill recorded 14 tackles (eight solo) in Kansas City's loss to the Chargers on Sunday. |
| Tranquill's 14 tackles marked a new season-high and his most since Week 10 of the 2022 campaign. The 30-year-old veteran linebacker has started all 14 games this season, producing 79 tackles (43 solo), including 2.0 sacks, one pass breakup and one fumble recovery on 86 percent of the Chiefs' defensive snaps. | |
| 12/14/2025 9:55:00 PM | Pineiro went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made all four of his PATs in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans. |
| Pineiro made his return to action after missing two contests with a right hamstring injury, making a 33-yard field goal in the second quarter before adding makes from 37 and 40 yards in the fourth. The kicker has now gone a perfect 25-for-25 on field-goal tries, including 6-for-6 from 50-plus yards, over 11 games with the 49ers this season. | |
| 12/13/2025 4:50:00 PM | Jones underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a torn right Achilles that he suffered in Week 14 against the Jaguars, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. |
| The recovery timeline for Jones is 6-to-8 months, which puts him in a position to be fully cleared for the start of training camp in July of 2026. Jones will hit free agency in the offseason, but Schefter relays that the Colts are expected to try and re-sign the 28-year-old quarterback. Jones ended his 2025 regular season completing 68.0 percent of his passes for 3,101 yards, 19 touchdowns and eight interceptions while turning 45 carries into 164 yards and five scores across 13 games. | |
| 12/13/2025 11:33:00 AM | Leonard is expected to serve as the Colts' backup quarterback in Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. |
| Leonard appeared poised to take on starting duties for the rest of the season after Daniel Jones tore his Achilles tendon during the Colts' Week 14 loss to the Jaguars. However, Indianapolis opted to sign Philip Rivers on Wednesday, and after he and Leonard split first-team reps during Week 15 prep, the Colts are leaning toward having the 44-year-old veteran make his first NFL start since the 2020 season. How Rivers plays Sunday will likely determine whether he remains at the helm for the Colts for the rest of the 2025 campaign, or if Leonard gets a shot at some point. | |
| 11/25/2025 11:57:00 PM | Williams recorded four total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 30-24 win against the Titans. |
| Williams was able to finish with at least four takedowns for the ninth time this season, but most notably, he was able to sack Cam Ward in the third quarter for his third sack in four contests. The defensive lineman has now compiled 45 total tackles (24 solo), including 6.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed over 11 games this year. | |
| 11/21/2025 7:08:00 AM | Mixon (foot/ankle) refuted a report that he is not expected to return this season, Matt Young of the Houston Chronicle reports. |
| NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported that Mixon is not expected to return this season, prompting the running back to clap back. "Now, I get everyone's looking for splash news & clickbait... but I'm just curious, Ian how do you know more about me than me?," Mixon responded. The report adds that two sources told the Houston Chronicle that the team holds out hope the running back's foot responds to treatment, but added he was not expected to play in 2025. Mixon has been on the reserve/non-football injury list all season, and in his ongoing absence, Woody Marks (115 carries) and Nick Chubb (105 carries) have handled the bulk of the rushing duties for the 6-5 Texans. | |
| 11/17/2025 7:39:00 PM | Wilson is active for Monday's game against the Raiders. |
| Wilson is past a calf injury that caused him to miss one regular-season game with the Bengals before being traded to the Cowboys in early November. With an extra week of practices under his belt courtesy of the Cowboys' Week 10 bye, Wilson should play a prominent role on defense alongside Shemar James and Kenneth Murray. Wilson posted 46 tackles (19 solo), four pass defenses and one fumble recovery across eight regular-season games with the Bengals prior to his trade. | |
| 10/20/2025 5:13:00 PM | Coach Dan Quinn said Monday that Armstrong (knee) will miss the remainder of the season, Commanders writer Ben Standig reports. |
| Armstrong suffered the knee injury in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys after logging just four defensive snaps. The 28-year-old defensive lineman's season is over after compiling 24 tackles (16 solo), including a team-high 5.5 sacks. Washington already has several other edge defenders on injured reserve, so the team may need to look outside the organization for help at the position. | |
| 3/10/2025 2:34:00 PM | Mullens is in line to sign with the Jaguars on a two-year, $6.5 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. |
| Mullens, now heading into his age-30 season, looks primed to operate as the new backup to Trevor Lawrence, with Mac Jones scheduled to depart Jacksonville in free agency. Across four regular-season appearances with Minnesota in 2024, Mullens completed two of two pass attempts for 38 yards and zero touchdowns or interceptions. Back in 2023 with the Vikings, he completed 100 of 148 pass attempts for 1,306 yards, seven touchdowns and eight interceptions across five appearances. | |
