2 days agoPittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt was a full participant in practice Tuesday. Watt was listed as a DNP on Monday's practice estimate but it appears to have been a rest day for the eighth-year veteran. Watt is arguably the most important piece of a talented Steelers defense. He has recorded 7.5 sacks and four forced fumbles in 2024. With the Steelers set to play the Cleveland Browns and a turnover-prone
Jameis Winston in Week 12, Watt could have a field day. The Steelers are rolling in 2024. They sit atop the AFC North with a 8-2 record. Thursday Night games tend to be defensive struggles which bodes well for Watt's production. As such, the Steelers D/ST could be excellent in this game if they can to force turnovers out of Winston.

2 days agoDallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that tight end
Jake Ferguson (concussion) "will be hard-pressed" to play on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Commanders in Week 12 after suffering a concussion early in Monday night's blowout loss to the Houston Texans. Ferguson was quickly ruled out in Week 11 and will struggle to gain clearance from the league's concussion protocol on a short week. The 25-year-old deserves to be kept on fantasy rosters through his injury, but those in need of a TE with six teams on bye this week may want to look at Ferguson's replacement,
Luke Schoonmaker. The 26-year-old ended up playing 43 offensive snaps on Monday after Ferguson was hurt and hauled in six of 10 targets for 56 yards. Schoonmaker will be a TE2 sleeper/streamer if Ferguson is ruled out for Week 12, as expected.

2 days agoDallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that quarterback
Cooper Rush will once again be the starter for the Week 12 matchup with the division-rival Washington Commanders on Sunday. However, there will be a package of plays for backup
Trey Lance. The Cowboys have been blown out in back-to-back games in the two games that Rush has started, and McCarthy admitted himself that he regrets not getting Lance into the game late in the Monday night loss to the Houston Texans. Rush did throw for over 300 yards with a touchdown and interception in the loss to Houston on Monday, but there's a good chance Lance could be making starts under center for the Cowboys by season's end now that
Dak Prescott (hamstring) is out for the year. Rush will be no better than a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues this Sunday against Washington.

2 days agoDallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said he's hoping the team will get wide receiver
Brandin Cooks (knee) back for their Week 12 contest versus the division-rival Washington Commanders on Sunday. Cooks has been on Injured Reserve since Oct. 5 due to an infected right knee that required surgery. The fact that the Cowboys have yet to open the 31-year-old veteran's 21-day practice window before coming off IR makes us skeptical that we'll see Cooks on the field against the Commanders this weekend. And even if Cooks is activated from IR and is active on Sunday, we'd expect him to serve as more of Dallas' No. 3 receiver behind
CeeDee Lamb and
Jalen Tolbert in his first game back. Before his injury, Cooks had been a disappointing WR4/flex for fantasy managers, collecting nine catches for 91 yards and one touchdown. Things won't get any better with
Cooper Rush at QB.

2 days agoCleveland Browns wide receiver
Elijah Moore was limited in practice for the second straight day to open the week on Tuesday. Moore's injury isn't believed to be serious enough to put him in danger of missing Thursday night's game against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, so the Browns are likely just taking it easy on the 24-year-old wideout on a short week. Like many of Cleveland's offensive skill players, Moore has benefitted from quarterback
Jameis Winston taking over under center due to the season-ending injury to
Deshaun Watson. In the last three games with Winston starting, Moore has 17 receptions (29 targets) for 179 yards and his first touchdown of the season, which came this past week in the loss to the New Orleans Saints. However, fantasy managers may want to temper expectations for Moore as a WR4/flex in a tough matchup against the Steelers' vaunted defense this week.

2 days agoCleveland Browns tight end
David Njoku (knee) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Tuesday for the second straight day this week ahead of Thursday's divisional tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers to kick off Week 12 action. The Browns most likely aren't going to do much more than walkthrough practices on a short week, and the 28-year-old should be good to go to suit up on Thursday night. Coming off a nine-catch, 81-yard performance in the Week 11 loss to the New Orleans Saints, Njoku should be treated as a midrange TE1 in fantasy with more upside now that quarterback
Jameis Winston is throwing him passes. In three games since
Deshaun Watson (Achilles) went down with a season-ending injury, Njoku has caught 19 of his 23 targets for 171 yards and one touchdown while working with Winston.

2 days agoThe New York Jets named Phil Savage as their interim general manager after firing former GM Joe Douglas on Tuesday, according to a source. Savage was serving as the team's senior football adviser and was formerly the general manager of the Cleveland Browns from 2005 to 2008. Owner Woody Johnson said the Jets "will begin the process to identify a new GM immediately." Douglas signed a six-year contract when he was hired in June of 2019 and was scheduled to be a free agent after the 2024 season. The Jets went 30-64 under Douglas, with no winning seasons or playoff appearances. Douglas traded for future Hall of Fame quarterback
Aaron Rodgers in April of 2023, but Rodgers tore his Achilles in Week 1 of last year and has been a big disappointment this season. With major changes coming this offseason, Rodgers isn't expected back in 2025.

2 days agoVeteran free-agent safety Terrell Edmunds is working out for the Chicago Bears on Tuesday, according to NFL.com. The former first-round pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2018 out of Virginia Tech has played in 100 career games for the Steelers, Eagles, and Titans and has racked up 465 tackles, 7.5 sacks, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, six interceptions, and 28 pass deflections. His brother, Tremaine Edmunds, starts at middle linebacker for Chicago, so it would make for a cool story if he lands in the Windy City. However, he would likely be limited to a reserve role for the No. 9 defense in passing yards allowed per game (197.4) this season.

2 days agoThe New York Giants worked out free-agent quarterback
Alex McGough on Tuesday, according to NFL reporter Eric Edholm. McGough was a seventh-round pick by the Seattle Seahawks in 2018 out of Florida International University but has yet to log a regular-season stats in the NFL. It would be a surprise if the 29-year-old sees any playing time this year even if he signs with the G-Men, but the organization is doing its due diligence at the position after benching veteran quarterback
Daniel Jones for
Tommy Devito. This workout can be safely ignored for fantasy football purposes.

2 days agoThe Jacksonville Jaguars activated running back
Keilan Robinson (toe) from Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to JaguarsPR on X. The fifth-round rookie out of Texas has not made his NFL debut after suffering a toe injury in the preseason leading up to Week 1. Robinson spent his freshman year at Alabama before transferring to Texas for the 2021, 2022, and 2023 seasons. However, he spent his career primarily backing up NFL running backs
Bijan Robinson,
Roschon Johnson, and
Jonathon Brooks. He ended his college career with 796 rushing yards, 332 receiving yards, 966 return yards, and 13 total touchdowns. Robinson has 4.42 speed and could see touches, but it would be a surprise if he entered the fantasy football radar in 12-plus team leagues this year.

2 days agoNew York Jets quarterback
Aaron Rodgers has said he wants to play in 2025 despite a miserable season for the team this year. However, ESPN Jets reporter Rich Cimini said the firing of general manager Joe Douglas likely means Rodgers will not be back with New York next year. It's early to speculate, but Rodgers had a great relationship with Douglas and has advocated for interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich. With the organization likely to undergo a ton of change this offseason, finding a new franchise quarterback and resetting the roster could be on the agenda. Rodgers has completed 63.4% of his passes for 2,442 yards, 17 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 11 games for the Jets this season. It would be fascinating to see how many organizations would be interested in acquiring the future Hall of Famer this offseason if he becomes available.

2 days agoThe New York Giants are signing offensive lineman Tyre Phillips to the practice squad on Tuesday, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. The 27-year-old started in nine games for the G-Men last season before suffering a torn quad, but he is fully recovered. Phillips has played in 44 career games with 27 total starts since entering the NFL as a third-round pick out of Mississippi State in 2020. While New York is far removed from the NFC Playoff picture, Phillips could make his way onto the active roster and enhance the team's offensive line down the stretch for running back
Tyrone Tracy Jr. and new starting quarterback
Tommy Devito.

2 days agoJacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Gabe Davis (knee) is heading to the Injured Reserve list due to a knee injury, and his 2024 season is over. The former Buffalo Bill signed a three-year, $39 million deal this offseason to join a team that was supposed to compete for an AFC South championship. In 10 games with Jacksonville, he racked up 20 receptions for 239 yards and two touchdowns. While he was not much of a fantasy football contributor, his absence for the rest of the season could open more opportunities for
Parker Washington. That said, all of the Jaguars' offensive skill players lack upside until
Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) returns from his shoulder injury, which could be after the Week 12 bye.
