2 days agoCleveland Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore caught three of his five targets for 21 yards in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Moore was quiet on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland as he finished just fifth on the team in receiving. Cleveland went with a very run-centric game plan due to the weather, which cut into Moore's production just a week after he went for 66 yards and a touchdown. Moore will remain a decent flex option in fantasy most weeks, although a difficult matchup against the Denver Broncos awaits him in Week 13.Source: NFL.com
2 days agoCleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught all six of his targets for 85 yards in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Jeudy led the Browns in all receiving categories on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland where passing yards were hard to come by. The veteran receiver came up big in the close win, making several clutch catches to keep the chains moving including a big 15-yard catch on third-and-six in the fourth quarter that set up Nick Chubb for the game-winning touchdown run. Jeudy has been on fire of late, having caught at least five passes while reaching at least 73 receiving yards in five straight games. He will be a WR3 in fantasy in a tough matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 13.Source: NFL.com
2 days agoCleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford carried the ball four times for 19 yards and added an eight-yard catch on his lone target in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Ford was not a focal point of the offense on a cold, snowy day in Cleveland where the Browns leaned on Nick Chubb to grind out tough yards in the close win. The Browns appear content to let Chubb see the majority of the work on the offense while Ford mixes in on passing downs. Ford does not need to remain rostered in fantasy heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Denver Broncos.Source: NFL.com
2 days agoCleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb carried the ball 20 times for 59 yards and two touchdowns while adding a one-yard reception in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Chubb's performance was the story of the game on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland. He provided a spark for the Browns with short touchdown runs in the second and fourth quarters, with the second TD being the game-winning score for Cleveland. Chubb has now scored three touchdowns and rushed for 222 yards across five games this season. He will be a high-end RB3 in Week 13's Monday night game against the Denver Broncos.Source: NFL.com
2 days agoCleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston completed 18 of his 27 passes for 219 yards and an interception while adding three carries for seven yards, a touchdown, and a lost fumble in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Winston also added a two-point conversion pass to David Njoku in the fourth quarter. It was a cold, snowy day in Cleveland, which dampened the Browns' passing attack as they leaned on the running game for all three of their touchdowns. Winston did have a short touchdown pass dropped by David Njoku in the second half as several receivers had difficulty squeezing the ball in the cold conditions. Settling in as a boom/bust QB2 in fantasy, Winston will now have extra time to prepare to take on the Denver Broncos in Week 13's Monday night game.Source: NFL.com

2 days agoThere's an "overwhelming likelihood" that Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (Achilles) will remain with the team in 2025, according to Albert Breer of The MMQB. However, the Browns are expected to "work to put competition in the quarterback room, either through the draft or free agency," Breer said. This is an important development given that there has been significant speculation about Watson's future in Cleveland. Per Breer's understanding, Watson will be given the chance to recover from his Achilles tear and regain the starting role in Cleveland, but it won't merely be given to him as easily as it was ahead of the 2024 season. Rather, the veteran quarterback will have to get healthy and beat out competition if he has any shot at starting in Week 1 next year.Source: Cleveland Browns
2 days agoCleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (head) entered concussion protocol after exiting Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Tillman was visibly woozy and disoriented after taking a hit late in the third quarter. The Browns initially listed Tillman as questionable, but as soon as he entered concussion protocol, he was deemed ineligible to return. He finished Week 12 with four catches, two targets, 28 yards, and a lost fumble. Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore remain the Browns' top two receivers but could see additional volume if Tillman doesn't clear protocol in time for Week 13.Source: Adam Ronis

2 days agoArizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. This is now back-to-back limited sessions which puts Demercado's status in danger ahead of the Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. He hasn't been a huge piece to the offense with only three carries last week. However, Demercado recorded 59 rushing yards and a touchdown versus the Chicago Bears earlier this month. Despite that, Demercado remains the third string back and won't have much streaming appeal even if healthy this weekend.Source: cardinals.com
2 days agoMiami Dolphins defensive back Jalen Ramsey (knee) was listed as a full participant during Thursday's practice session. That's a relief to Dolphins fans after Ramsey was limited on Wednesday due to a knee issue. The fact he was able to get through a full session on Thursday is a good sign ahead of Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Ramsey has 40 tackles, six passes defended, and two interceptions through 10 games this season. The All-Pro has been a key piece to this defense and appears to be ready for this important Week 12 matchup.Source: David Furones
2 days agoWashington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz was back on the practice field as a full participant during Thursday's session. The veteran tight end missed Wednesday's practice for rest purposes, but is back to being a full participant now. Fellow tight end Ben Sinnott (illness) also missed Wednesday's practice, but joined Ertz for a full session on Thursday. Both tight ends figure to have a full workload during Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Ertz is coming off a game where he hauled in six of his seven targets for 47 yards and a touchdown during last week's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He has been quiet for a few weeks before that game, but hopefully that is a sign of good things to come for the veteran tight end.Source: Sports Illustrated
2 days agoWashington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott (illness) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. This is good news after Sinnott was a limited participant on Wednesday due to a minor illness. The fact that he's back to being full in practice means he should be good to go for the Week 12 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Sinnott has one reception for 12 yards over his last four games. The Commanders selected Sinnott in the second-round of this year's draft, but the 22-year-old hasn't seen a significant role in the passing game this season. Fantasy managers should hold Sinnott in dynasty formats, but there's little reason to roster him otherwise.Source: Sports Illustrated
2 days agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Van Jefferson (quad) is currently considered questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Cleveland Browns. Jefferson appears to have re-aggravated his quad injury during the first half of this contest. It's the same issue that Jefferson was dealing with last week, but he ultimately played in Week 11. He hauled in his lone target for 11 yards before exiting on Thursday. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Steelers hold out Jefferson until at least halftime. George Pickens and Calvin Austin III figure to see more targets with Jefferson absent currently.Source: Ray Fittipaldo
2 days agoSeattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (groin) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out the first session of the week on Wednesday. Fant has missed the team's last two games, with Thursday being his first practice since he hurt his groin on Oct. 30. The 27-year-old isn't in the clear just yet to play in Week 12 against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals, but his return to the practice field at least gives him a chance. In Fant's absence, rookie AJ Barner has seen a bigger role, which has made him a TE2 sleeper in much deeper fantasy leagues. If Fant is able to do more in practice on Friday and return to play on Sunday, he'd be in play as a TE2 streamer with six teams on bye in Week 12. When healthy, Fant has averaged only 5.3 half-PPR points per game, which ranks 30th among all TEs in football.Source: Seahawks.com - John Boyle
