NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 12) - Targets and Avoids

The referees have gotten out of hand. It seems like every single play there's a defensive holding, illegal contact, or pass interference. Even if it's third-and-20 and the ball is thrown to the right side of the field, but a hold is called on the left side, that gives the offense a first down. It's […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 12

James Robinson emerged from a murky Jacksonville backfield to become the team's lead back, and he is now the RB4 on the season in PPR leagues. Justin Herbert has risen to weekly fantasy starter status, as he has put up the eighth-most fantasy points among all QBs. Justin Jefferson has had four 100-yard performances already, […]

Tua Tagovailoa Downgraded To Doubtful

Miami Dolphins rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Week 12 against the Jets. It will be veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick getting the start on Sunday. Tagovailoa jammed his thumb against a helmet in practice on Wednesday and has been limited this week. The Dolphins just don't want to take […]

Tua Tagovailoa Very Questionable For Week 12

The Miami Dolphins will not force rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) to play through his injury in Week 12 against the Jets if they think that it's affecting him at all. Tagovailoa's status for Sunday's game is very much in question. The rookie from Alabama was limited in practice this week after jamming his thumb on […]

Jakeem Grant Sr. Listed As Questionable

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 12 against the Jets.

Dolphins Non-Committal On Tua Tagovailoa, Myles Gaskin

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said the team will watch film on quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) and running back Myles Gaskin (knee) before deciding if they will play in Week 12 against the Jets. Tagovailoa's thumb injury wasn't deemed serious this week, so it's curious that they are considering sitting him out against the […]

Salvon Ahmed Ruled Out Against Jets

Miami Dolphins rookie running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) has been ruled out for Week 12 against the Jets. On top of it, the Dolphins are non-committal on whether Myles Gaskin (knee) will play after being designated to return from Injured Reserve this week. If Gaskin is available to play, he should be at least eased […]

Mike Gesicki Has Increased Value Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki hauled in four of his five targets for 43 yards in the loss to the Denver Broncos last week. He could be looking at a bigger role with Jakeem Grant (hamstring) questionable to suit up versus the New York Jets in Week 12. That would mean DeVante Parker and […]

Jakeem Grant Has Low-End WR3 Value

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) was limited during Thursday's practice, which is not a good sign. There is a chance that Grant is unable to suit up for the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. That would likely mean that DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki would see plenty of targets […]

DeVante Parker Has WR2 Upside In Week 12

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker has been basically the only useful weapon in the passing attack for this offense all season long. Last week, Parker hauled in six receptions for 61 yards and one touchdown in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Parker and rookie Tua Tagovailoa have not been able to develop consistent […]

Matt Breida Unlikely To Produce Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida has a total of 132 rushing yards heading into the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. It has been a rough year for him on the ground, but he doesn't exactly get a lot of touches. However, both Myles Gaskin (knee) and Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) are in […]

Myles Gaskin Might Return Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin (knee) was able to return to practice on Wednesday, which is a great sign. He sprained his MCL in Week 8 and has missed three games since then. Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) has missed two straight practices and is in danger of sitting out during the Week 12 matchup versus […]

Salvon Ahmed In Danger Of Sitting Out In Week 12

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) remained on the sideline for Thursday's practice. He has missed two straight practices and is in danger of sitting out of the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. Ahmed has taken over the lead back role in Miami over the last few weeks. His absence would […]

Tua Tagovailoa Should Rebound Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) has been limited during practice this week, but is expected to suit up for the Week 12 matchup versus the New York Jets. Tagovailoa was horrendous against the Denver Broncos last week and was benched in favor of Ryan Fitzpatrick in the fourth quarter. However, Tagovailoa has a great […]
