6 hours agoNew York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 14 times for 52 yards and caught five of his six targets for 38 yards in a 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. Hall led the way on the ground for the Jets as Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis combined to see just six touches in the low-scoring loss. The veteran running back has been playing through a knee issue over the past few weeks but the Jets appear comfortable enough with it that they have continued to use Hall as their lead back over the past two weeks. Hall is looking like an RB2 in fantasy heading into Week 17's road matchup against the Buffalo Bills.Source: NFL.com
6 hours agoNew York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 28 of his 42 passes for 256 yards and one touchdown while losing a fumble and rushing for six yards on one carry in a 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. It was a rough day for the Jets offense as they managed just one touchdown against a weak LA defensive unit. Rodgers' lone touchdown pass went to Davante Adams on an 11-yard completion in the first quarter. Rodgers' lost fumble proved to be a costly one as he lost the ball on a Kam Curl sack at New York's 21-yard line in the fourth quarter, leading to a Rams touchdown pass three plays later. Rodgers will look to bounce back against the Buffalo Bills on the road in Week 17.Source: NFL.com
6 hours agoAccording to the team, New York Jets rookie offensive tackle Olu Fashanu (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. The Penn State product was carted off after sustaining the injury. Fantasy managers should expect Max Mitchell to operate as the starting left tackle for the remainder of the afternoon.Source: New York Yankees
6 hours agoAccording to Rich Cimini of ESPN, New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner (hamstring) and safety Tony Adams (ankle) are questionable to return to Sunday's game. Adams tallied an interception before leaving while Gardner tallied two tackles. Fantasy managers should expect Brandin Echols and Isaiah Oliver to have an increased role for the remainder of the game.Source: Rich Cimini
7 hours agoAccording to Josh Kendall of The Athletic, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game. The top wideout left in the fourth quarter. Before exiting, London caught five of his eight targets for 58 yards. His yardage total was the second-most on the team, behind Darnell Mooney. Fantasy managers should expect Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud III to see most of the targets for the remainder of the afternoon.Source: Josh Kendall
7 hours agoArizona Cardinals running back James Conner (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game with a knee injury. Conner sustained this injury in the third quarter. Before exiting, Conner was enjoying a nice game as he tallied 117 yards and a score on 15 attempts. He also caught all four of his targets for 49 yards. DeeJay Dallas and Michael Carter should handle most of the rushing work while Conner remains sidelined. Dallas has already found the end zone today on a one-yard reception.Source: Arizona Cardinals
7 hours agoMiami Dolphins offensive tackle Terron Armstead (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Armstead suffered this injury during their Week 14 victory against the Jets and was unable to play last weekend in Houston. Armstead will bring a much-needed boost to this offensive unit that struggled last weekend. While this will help Tua Tagovailoa, fantasy managers show view him as a risky low-end QB1 as he will be without his No.2 wideout Jaylen Waddle (knee).Source: Miami Dolphins
7 hours agoMiami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Hill opened the week as a non-participant in practice but was able to finish the week in a limited capacity. With Jaylen Waddle (knee) inactive, fantasy managers should view Hill as a WR1 in all formats as he should see a substantial target share this afternoon. He should be locked into all lineups and is a solid play in DFS formats.Source: Miami Dolphins
7 hours agoMiami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Waddle sustained this knee injury during last weekend's loss to the Houston Texans. The Alabama product was unable to practice all week and will set his sights on returning in Week 17 to face the Cleveland Browns. Fantasy managers should expect Tyreek Hill to see an increased target share while Malik Washington will move up to the No.2 spot. Washington is worth a look as a high-upside play in DFS on the late slate.Source: Miami Dolphins
7 hours agoSan Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (Achilles, knee) and defensive end Nick Bosa (hip, oblique) are both active for Sunday's match against the Miami Dolphins. Both defenders were limited throughout the week but are able to suit up. Greenlaw made his season debut last Thursday and was very involved with eight tackles. Bosa returned from his three-game absence on Thursday evening and tallied four tackles. Fantasy managers should expect both defenders to see their typical workload this afternoon.Source: San Francisco 49ers
7 hours agoBuffalo Bills linebacker Matt Milano (biceps, groin) is inactive for Sunday's divisional tilt against the New England Patriots. Milano suffered a groin injury during last weekend's victory in Detroit. Milano made his season debut in Week 13 due to a bicep strain that kept him out during the first 12 games of the season. Across his first three games of the season, Milano averaged 3.7 tackles per game with one fumble recovery. Fantasy managers should expect Dorian Williams to have an increased role this afternoon.Source: Buffalo Bills
7 hours agoBuffalo Bills wide receiver Curtis Samuel (rib) is inactive for Sunday's divisional matchup against the New England Patriots. Samuel sustained this injury during last weekend's victory over the Buffalo Bills. During the week, Samuel remained a limited participant but was unable to turn the corner. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Amari Cooper to operate as the top wideouts for Josh Allen. Samuel has had a disappointing season catching just 24 passes for 201 yards and one score.Source: Buffalo Bills
7 hours agoNew England Patriots safety Kyle Dugger (ankle) is active, while safety Jabrill Peppers (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's divisional tilt against the Buffalo Bills. Dugger opened the week as a non-participant but was able to log two limited sessions to conclude the week. Peppers popped up on the injury report on Friday and will set his sights on returning in Week 17. Dugger should be expected to operate in his typical starting role, while Dell Pettus will likely take over Peppers' role at free safety. The Patriots defense should not be viewed as a streaming option facing a potent Buffalo offense.Source: New England Patriots
7 hours agoAccording to Brooke Pryor of ESPN, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) has a "real chance" to return on Wednesday to face the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day. The top wideout has been sidelined over the past three weeks due to a hamstring injury. While sidelined, Calvin Austin III and Van Jefferson have operated as the top options in the Pittsburgh passing attack. Before the injury, Pickens was establishing a nice connection with quarterback Russell Wilson, averaging an impressive 16.0 PPR points per game since Wilson took the starting job. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status during the week, as Pickens would be a viable WR2 if he can return to action.Source: Brooke Pryor
7 hours agoAccording to Alec Lewis of The Athletic, Minnesota Vikings safety Harrison Smith (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. The safety was initially deemed a game-time-decision but will set his sights on returning in Week 17. Smith logged two limited practice sessions this week and was a non-participant for one of them. As a result, Jay Ward could see an increase in snaps on Sunday afternoon. Across 14 games this season, Smith has tallied 79 tackles (51 solo) with one sack, two deflections, and two interceptions.Source: Alec Lewis
