Lions | Jameson Williams activated Sat Dec 3, 03:55 PM
Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams (knee) was activated from the Non-Football Injury list, according to a source Saturday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: The rookie is available to make his debut in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Williams has a skill set based on speed, explosiveness, and precision as a route runner. We'll see how the Lions mix him into their passing game. Williams has the upside to be at least a 'what the heck' flex in his debut. |
Buccaneers | Leonard Fournette questionable Sat Dec 3, 03:29 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette (hip) was a full participant in practice on Saturday, Dec. 3, but is listed as questionable for Week 13.
| Footballguys view: It's a good sign that Fournette was a full participant on Saturday. The Buccaneers play the Saints on Monday night in Week 13. Fournette is going to split time with rookie RB Rachaad White. If both backs are out there in some sort of rotation, White and Fournette should be seen as flex options by Fantasy GMs. |

Rams | Matthew Stafford placed on IR Sat Dec 3, 02:53 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (neck) was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, Dec. 3, likely ending his 2022 season.
| Footballguys view: After winning a Super Bowl last year, things have fallen apart for the Rams. It was a lost season for Stafford, and neck injuries are nothing to mess around with. He ends the 2022 season with 2,087 pass yards, 10 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. |

Broncos | Jerry Jeudy moving in right direction Sat Dec 3, 02:25 PM
Denver Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy (ankle) is moving in the right direction to play in Week 13 but will have to pass a pregame test before being cleared to play.
| Footballguys view: Jeudy is a game-time decision in Week 13 against the Ravens. The Broncos' passing game is not good, and from a fantasy perspective, Jeudy is just a deep flex play after missing the last few weeks with this ankle problem. |
Jerry Jeudy player page
Broncos | Optimism for Courtland Sutton Sat Dec 3, 02:18 PM
Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton (illness) is feeling better on Saturday, Dec. 3, and there is optimism he'll play in Week 13 despite a questionable tag.
| Footballguys view: Sutton is likely to play in Week 13. We're not relying on many players from the Broncos' offense as they have been downright terrible this season. We have Sutton around the WR3/flex levels this week against the Ravens. |
Courtland Sutton player page
Broncos | Broncos announce four moves Sat Dec 3, 01:58 PM
Denver Broncos WR KJ Hamler (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, Dec. 3. In addition, WR Brandon Johnson was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster, and CB Faion Hicks and LB Harvey Langi were elevated from the practice squad for Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Hamler is now likely done for the season. He's talented and has a ton of heart, but Hamler has missed more games than he's played in the NFL. Last year is the final year of his rookie contract, and we'll see if the 2020 second-round pick can ever stay healthy and play up to his potential consistently. |
Broncos | Mike Boone activated from IR Sat Dec 3, 01:56 PM
Denver Broncos RB Mike Boone (ankle) was activated from injured reserve on Saturday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: Boone can work as a no.3 running back for Denver, and he can play on special teams. The Broncos will rely on Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack when it comes to their backfield. Boone can work as a receiving back if he gets on the field. |
Mike Boone player page
Broncos | KJ Hamler to be placed on IR Sat Dec 3, 01:46 PM
Denver Broncos WR KJ Hamler (hamstring) suffered a setback with his hamstring and is set to be placed on injured reserve, per source on Saturday, Dec. 3.
| Footballguys view: Hamler is now likely done for the season. He's talented and has a ton of heart, but Hamler has missed more games than he's played in the NFL. Last year is the final year of his rookie contract, and we'll see if the 2020 second-round pick can ever stay healthy and play up to his potential consistently. |
Giants | Odell Beckham officially visits Giants Sat Dec 3, 12:24 PM
Free-agent WR Odell Beckham Jr. (Rams) visited the New York Giants on Thursday, Dec. 2. He is also scheduled to meet with the Buffalo Bills and Dallas Cowboys next week.
| Footballguys view: It would be kind of cool to see Beckham go back to the team where his superstardom in the NFL started. Beckham is expected to be fully cleared from his ACL injury later this month. However, there are new reports indicating a return may be in doubt. FOX Sports' Ralph Vacchiano reports there is "considerable doubt" Beckham can return to play this year. We'll see what teams think when he goes through a workout and a physical before signing. |
Odell Beckham Jr player page
NFL | Will Levis going pro Sat Dec 3, 08:45 AM
University of Kentucky QB Will Levis announced his intention to declare for the 2023 NFL Draft on Wednesday, Nov. 30.
| Footballguys view: Levis was a 2018 recruit coming out of high school, the same year of Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields. He began his college career at Penn State, but Levis only started a couple of games in three years. He transferred to Kentucky and found immediate stardom over the last two seasons. Levis can take off and run when under pressure, but he does lack patience in the pocket because of his athleticism. We should see him go off the board in the mid-first round of the 2023 NFL draft. |
Lions | Jameson Williams feeling confident Fri Dec 2, 11:23 PM
Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams (knee) said he feels prepared to play in Week 13 but won't push the coaching staff to put him on the field. 'I'm feeling good, feeling back to myself,' Williams said. 'I got a chance to get out there and get some routes, run some plays with the team, do a little bit, so I'm feeling really good right now.'
| Footballguys view: Lions fans and Fantasy GMs should be excited about Williams getting out there this season. His game is all about speed, explosion, and precision as a route runner. Williams may be eased into action, but he's got the type of skill to make an immediate impact for the Lions and your fantasy team. |
Chargers | Big game on tap for Justin Herbert? Fri Dec 2, 10:35 PM
Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert faces the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 13, and he has thrown 13 touchdowns and one interception in five career starts against the Raiders, throwing multiple touchdowns in all five starts.
| Footballguys view: Herbert is a great option in DFS this week. He's a QB1 and a set-it-and-forget-it starter in traditional fantasy football leagues. The Chargers receivers are coming through for Herbert, even though he's played quite a few games this year without his top two targets WRs Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. |
Justin Herbert player page
Seahawks | Tough sledding for Kenneth Walker III Fri Dec 2, 09:43 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III has averaged less than 3.0 yards per carry in three of his last four games.
| Footballguys view: Teams are daring QB Geno Smith to beat them, and he's having better success through the air than some expected. When coverage starts to change, fewer players will be in the box to stuff Walker. His sizable role and nose for the end zone make him an RB2 with upside for Fantasy GMs on a weekly basis. |
Seahawks | Geno Smith streaking Fri Dec 2, 09:41 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith has thrown multiple touchdowns in five straight games, which is the longest streak of his career and the longest active streak in the NFL.
| Footballguys view: Smith was written off, but as he says - he didn't write them back. We're so happy with his performance this season. Smith has been through a ton as a pro, starting on draft night when he wasn't a first-round pick (even though he was in the green room all night). The Seahawks are pushing for the postseason, largely because of the play of Smith. |
Geno Smith player page
Jets | Garrett Wilson thriving without Zach Wilson Fri Dec 2, 09:39 PM
New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson has 319 receiving yards and no touchdowns in QB Zach Wilson's seven starts compared to 309 yards and four touchdowns in the four games Wilson hasn't been the starter.
| Footballguys view: That's not a surprise given Zach Wilson was playing bad football. The Jets made the change because head coach Robert Saleh knows his team can make a playoff run. Garrett Wilson can be a big part of what they do going forward, no matter who the quarterback is slinging him the rock. |
Eagles | Pedestrian stretch for DeVonta Smith Fri Dec 2, 09:35 PM
Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith has finished with 50 receiving yards or less in five of his last six games, and he has been held below 80 receiving yards in every game in that span after reaching that total in three of his first five games.
| Footballguys view: Smith can still take the top off the defense, and on one play he can make his fantasy week. Because of his big-play ability, Smith is worth considering as a flex play every week for Fantasy GMs out there. |
DeVonta Smith player page
Chargers | Chargers' final Week 13 injury report Fri Dec 2, 05:26 PM
Los Angeles Chargers C Corey Linsley (concussion), OT Trey Pipkins III (knee) and WR Mike Williams (ankle) did not practice all week and were ruled out for Week 13 on Friday, Dec. 2. Also, LB Drue Tranquill (illness) and DL Breiden Fehoko (illness) did not practice but are listed as questionable, S Nasir Adderley (thumb) practiced in full and is questionable, and CB Bryce Callahan (groin), CB Michael Davis (knee), S Derwin James (hip), LB Khalil Mack (rest), LB Kenneth Murray Jr. (wrist) and OL Jamaree Salyer (knee) practiced in full and were removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: DeAndre Carter will be a solid WR3/Flex option with Williams out. He has been a good play every time Williams has sat this year. Josh Palmer also gets a boost in his outlook with Williams still nursing an injured ankle. |

Broncos | Week 13 injury report for Denver Fri Dec 2, 05:08 PM
Denver Broncos LB Dakota Allen (hamstring), TE Andrew Beck (hamstring, illness), WR KJ Hamler (hamstring) and DT Jonathan Harris (knee) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens. WR Courtland Sutton (illness) did not practice Friday, Dec. 2, and is listed as questionable. WR Jerry Jeudy (ankle) and S K'Waun Williams (wrist, elbow, knee) were limited in practice Friday and are also listed as questionable. LS Jacob Bobenmoyer (undisclosed) was limited in practice Friday but is expected to play. S Kareem Jackson (non-injury), DE Dre'Mont Jones (illness), OG Dalton Risner (shoulder), WR Kendall Hinton (foot), WR Jalen Virgil (hip) and PK Brandon McManus (quad) practiced in full Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Sutton and Jeudy aren't sure things for Sunday, and the Broncos offense, Russell Wilson's play, and the matchup vs. the Ravens aren't promising anyway. Check back Sunday morning for their statuses, but consider both what-the-heck WR3/Flex plays at best. |

Jaguars | Zay Jones listed as questionable Fri Dec 2, 04:31 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Zay Jones (chest) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 2, and is listed as questionable for Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Check back Sunday morning to make sure Jones is active, but assuming he is, give him a WR3/Flex look in PPR leagues as he's coming off of a career game that was capped with a game-winning two-point conversion catch. |
Zay Jones player page
Packers | Green Bay's injury report for Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 04:29 PM
Green Bay Packers OT David Bakhtiari (knee, appendix) did not practice Friday, Dec. 2, and has been ruled out for Week 13 versus the Chicago Bears. S Darnell Savage (foot) did not practice all week and is listed as doubtful. LB De'Vondre Campbell (knee) and WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) were limited in practice all week and are listed as questionable. OG Elgton Jenkins (knee), RB AJ Dillon (quad), RB Aaron Jones (shin, glute) and QB Aaron Rodgers (thumb, rib) were limited in practice Friday but no longer appear on the injury report. LB Krys Barnes (hand), DB Rudy Ford (wrist), CB Shemar Jean-Charles (ankle) and TE Marcedes Lewis (rest) practiced in full Friday and have also been removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Doubs could return this week, but Christian Watson is too hot to bench in your fantasy league with the Bears weakened defense up this weekend. |

Texans | Brandin Cooks to sit Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 04:08 PM
Houston Texans WR Brandin Cooks (calf) suffered a calf injury during the week and has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: Nico Collins and Jordan Akins have a better chance of hitting as desperation play with the Texans target tree narrowed. Cooks isn't an essential hold right now. |
Brandin Cooks player page
Colts | Indy's Week 13 injury report Fri Dec 2, 04:04 PM
Indianapolis Colts CB Kenny Moore II (ankle) and OT Braden Smith (illness) did not practice Friday, Dec. 2, and have been ruled out for Week 13 versus the Dallas Cowboys. TE Jelani Woods (ankle) and CB Isaiah Rodgers (knee) were upgraded to a full practice Friday but are listed as questionable. WR Keke Coutee (illness), DE Ben Banogu (abdomen), C Ryan Kelly (knee, ankle), TE Kylen Granson (illness) and DE Kwity Paye (ankle) practiced in full Friday and have been removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Woods could be a viable tight end play if he's active following his breakout game last week against the Steelers. |

Saints | Friday's practice report for New Orleans Fri Dec 2, 03:25 PM
New Orleans Saints S J.T. Gray (hamstring), TE Juwan Johnson (ankle), DT Malcolm Roach (illness), CB Bradley Roby (concussion), DT Kentavius Street (illness), DE Payton Turner (ankle), WR Kevin White (illness) and S P.J. Williams (knee) did not participate in practice Friday, Dec. 2. WR Jarvis Landry (ankle), CB Marshon Lattimore (abdomen), WR Rashid Shaheed (back) and LB Pete Werner (ankle) were limited. OL Josh Andrews (ankle), RB Mark Ingram (foot) and OT Ryan Ramczyk (rest) practiced in full.
| Footballguys view: Johnson is looking unlikely to play Monday night. Adam Trautman is a possibility as a desperation tight end if you are looking to replace Johnson. |

Dolphins | Miami's Week 13 injury report Fri Dec 2, 03:20 PM
Miami Dolphins OT Austin Jackson (ankle) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 13 versus the San Francisco 49ers. OT Terron Armstead (toe, pectoral) was upgraded to a limited practice Friday, Dec. 2, but is listed as doubtful. QB Teddy Bridgewater (knee) and RB Myles Gaskin (shoulder, ankle) were limited in practice Friday and are listed as questionable. LB Jerome Baker (hip), TE Tanner Conner (knee), CB Keion Crossen (shoulder), DT Raekwon Davis (knee), CB Kader Kohou (thumb), RB Raheem Mostert (knee) and QB Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) practiced in full Friday and have been removed from the injury report. LB Melvin Ingram (rest) and OL Rob Jones (back) were not given a practice designation Friday but are expected to play.
| Footballguys view: Armstead going out will be a test for the Dolphins offense. If Tua Tagovailoa has less time to throw downfield and faces a lot more pressure against the 49ers, Armstead's absence will be a big reason why. Mostert will return, but still run behind Jeff Wilson against both of their old team. |

RB Travis Etienne (foot), WR Zay Jones (chest) and S Andre Cisco (shoulder) were limited in practice all week and are also listed as questionable. DE Roy Robertson-Harris (illness) practiced in full Friday and has been removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Etienne should play, but JaMycal Hasty should be rostered for the stretch run, and we need to make sure Etienne isn't a surprise inactive Sunday morning. |

Bears | Week 13 injury report for Chicago Fri Dec 2, 02:41 PM
Chicago Bears OT Larry Borom (ankle, knee), S Jaquan Brisker (concussion), CB Kyler Gordon (concussion) and QB Trevor Siemian (oblique) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 13 against the Green Bay Packers. OT Riley Reiff (back) and CB Kindle Vildor (ankle) were upgraded to a full practice Friday, Dec. 2, but are listed as questionable. WR Chase Claypool (knee), QB Justin Fields (shoulder), WR Dante Pettis (illness) and LB Sterling Weatherford (concussion) practiced in full Friday and have been removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Justin Fields will get the start this week. It's not clear if the team will lighten his workload as a runner to protect his injured shoulder. He's a boom/bust play, with less appeal now that Darnell Mooney is on injured reserve. |

New York Giants OG Joshua Ezeudu (neck), CB Adoree' Jackson (knee) and OG Shane Lemieux (toe) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 13 versus the Washington Commanders. WR Darius Slayton (illness) did not practice for a second consecutive day on Friday, Dec. 2, and is listed as questionable. RB Gary Brightwell (illness), WR Richie James (knee), TE Daniel Bellinger (eye), S Dane Belton (shoulder), LB Carter Coughlin (thigh), C Jon Feliciano (neck), CB Darnay Holmes (shoulder) and CB Fabian Moreau (oblique) were limited in practice Friday and are also listed as questionable. CB Cor'Dale Flott (concussion), DE Leonard Williams (neck), OT Evan Neal (knee) and OT Tyre Phillips (neck) practiced in full Friday and have been removed from the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Slayton, James, and Bellinger are all desperation play material as the targets by default in an undermanned passing game, but you'll need to check back Sunday morning to make sure they are active. |

Baltimore Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins (knee) will not be activated in time to play in Week 13 versus the Denver Broncos, according to head coach John Harbaugh.
| Footballguys view: Gus Edwards is still a safe RB2 as the lead back against a very beatable Broncos run defense. |
J.K. Dobbins player page
Bengals | Cincy confident Ja'Marr Chase will play in Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 01:07 PM
Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (hip) is 'on track' to play in Week 13 against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to comments made by head coach Zac Taylor on Friday, Dec. 2.
| Footballguys view: If Chase is active, he's in your lineup. The Bengals will be smart and not rush him back before he is ready, but this is a pivotal game and the team doesn't have a big margin of error with a tough schedule down the stretch. |
Ja'Marr Chase player page
Commanders | Antonio Gibson questionable Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 12:52 PM
Washington Commanders RB Antonio Gibson (foot) returned to practice Friday, Dec. 2, and is listed as questionable for the Week 13 matchup against the New York Giants. His participation level Friday was not immediately revealed.
| Footballguys view: Gibson should play, but he's a low ceiling what-the-heck flex with Brian Robinson likely getting more touches as the Commanders should be able to play conservative on offense against the Giants. Robinson is the healthier Commanders back with more momentum right now. |
Antonio Gibson player page
Steelers | Najee Harris says he'll play Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 12:27 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris (abdominal) said Friday, Dec. 2, that he will play in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons.
| Footballguys view: Harris is a low ceiling RB2, but he should be in lineups with this news. The Steelers will be able to feed the running game with the low wattage Falcons offense as the opposition. |
Najee Harris player page
Bengals | Joe Mixon still in concussion protocol Fri Dec 2, 12:25 PM
Cincinnati Bengals RB Joe Mixon (concussion) remains in the concussion protocol, according to head coach Zac Taylor on Friday, Dec. 2.
| Footballguys view: Samaje Perine could get another start Sunday afternoon against the Chiefs. It is a late start, so if you are waiting on Mixon and we don't word he is cleared by Sunday morning, you might have to just plug in your early game option if you don't have Perine or another late/night game back on your roster. |
Joe Mixon player page
Buccaneers | Leonard Fournette practicing Friday Fri Dec 2, 11:43 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Leonard Fournette (hip) was spotted at practice Friday, Dec. 2.
| Footballguys view: Fournette should play and split work with Rachaad White. It's not clear who the lead back will be and it could be the dreaded hot hand approach at least for this week. Consider them both what the heck flex plays against the Saints Monday night. |
Leonard Fournette player page
Cowboys | Michael Gallup expected to play Week 13 Fri Dec 2, 11:33 AM
Dallas Cowboys WR Michael Gallup (illness) is expected to play in Week 13 against the Indianapolis Colts, according to head coach Mike McCarthy on Friday, Dec. 2
| Footballguys view: Gallup is trending up after posting a season high in catches and yards last week. Odell Beckham hasn't joined the team and won't be ready for a few more weeks anyway, so Gallup's value is intact for now. |
Michael Gallup player page
Browns | David Njoku absent Friday Fri Dec 2, 11:28 AM
Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) wasn't seen at practice Friday, Dec. 2.
| Footballguys view: Harrison Bryant will get the start and could be a fine streamer because of the matchup at Houston and Deshaun Watson taking the field for his first start as a Cleveland Brown. |
David Njoku player page
Jets | Michael Carter doubtful Fri Dec 2, 10:29 AM
New York Jets RB Michael Carter (ankle) is doubtful for Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Zonovan Knight and Ty Johnson will split the work, with James Robinson possibly figuring in after being a healthy scratch last week. Consider Knight and Johnson both possible flex plays that can do as an RB2 in a pinch with six teams on bye. |
Michael Carter player page
Eagles | Dallas Goedert aiming for Week 15 Fri Dec 2, 10:25 AM
Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (shoulder) is hoping to return from the Reserve/Injured list when he's first eligible in Week 15.
| Footballguys view: Check your waiver wire to make sure Goedert wasn't dropped. He'll be startable the first week he is back with the poor state of the tight end position in fantasy leagues. |
Dallas Goedert player page
Patriots | Hunter Henry struggles on TNF Fri Dec 2, 12:54 AM
New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry caught two passes for 13 yards against the Buffalo Bills on Thursday, Dec. 1. He was targeted five times.
| Footballguys view: This week, the answer to which Patriots tight end to plug in was neither. Unless the offense shows signs of life soon, we won't go back to them. A lot of money has been wasted on Henry and Jonnu Smith. |
Hunter Henry player page
Bills | Isaiah McKenzie finishes with five grabs Fri Dec 2, 12:21 AM
Buffalo Bills WR Isaiah McKenzie had five receptions for 44 yards against the New England Patriots on Thursday, Dec. 1. He was targeted five times.
| Footballguys view: McKenzie wasn't a big hit, but if you played him in a PPR league as your WR3/Flex, you'll take it. He should be kept as PPR emergency depth down the stretch, and he could be startable next week with six teams on bye. |
Isaiah McKenzie player page
Patriots | Three grabs for Jakobi Meyers Thu Dec 1, 11:37 PM
New England Patriots WR Jakobi Meyers (undisclosed) caught three of his five targets for 22 yards before exiting late in the fourth quarter with an undisclosed injury during the Week 13 game against the Buffalo Bills.
| Footballguys view: Meyers, like the rest of the Patriots offense, is fizzling out after a promising start. We'll wait to hear more about his injury, but it's the Patriots, so we might not know much by next week's game at Arizona. Meyers is not an essential hold in short bench leagues. |
Jakobi Meyers player page
Patriots | Rhamondre Stevenson logs 16 touches Thu Dec 1, 11:35 PM
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed 10 times for 54 yards and caught six of his eight targets for 24 yards in a 24-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson's passing game involvement is keeping him afloat in fantasy leagues, but he doesn't look like a league winner in this offense, even with Damien Harris sidelined. We'll see if Harris can rally to play in Week 14 at Arizona and lower Stevenson's ceiling for the game. |
Rhamondre Stevenson player page
Patriots | Mac Jones can't crack 200 yards Thu Dec 1, 11:32 PM
New England Patriots QB Mac Jones completed 22 of his 36 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown and rushed for seven yards in a 24-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Jones was seen muttering about the lack of downfield passing and his play raised questions about whether we'll see Bailey Zappe again this year. The Patriots offense under Matt Patricia and Joe Judge has gone about as well as we expected with the Cardinals up next. |
Mac Jones player page
Bills | Dawson Knox blanked in win Thu Dec 1, 11:31 PM
Buffalo Bills TE Dawson Knox failed to catch his lone target in a 24-10 win over the New England Patriots in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Knox has gone cold for fantasy. You can move on to another streamer next week, but pickings will be slimmer with six teams on bye. |
Dawson Knox player page
Bills | Gabe Davis makes his catches count Thu Dec 1, 11:29 PM
Buffalo Bills WR Gabe Davis caught two of his seven targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in a 24-10 win over the New England Patriots in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: A more successful night could have been had if Josh Allen had found Davis when he was open deep for a long score, but it wasn't in the cards. Davis is a boom/bust WR3/Flex with more bust than boom lately. |
Gabe Davis player page
Bills | James Cook busy against Pats Thu Dec 1, 11:15 PM
Buffalo Bills RB James Cook rushed 14 times for 64 yards and caught all six of his targets for 41 yards in a 24-10 win over the New England Patriots in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Cook seemed to assert himself into a central role in the offense and should be the top waiver pickup of the week. Cook's fresh rookie legs and passing game contributions could make him a strong RB2 down the stretch. |
Bills | Devin Singletary finds the end zone Thu Dec 1, 11:13 PM
Buffalo Bills RB Devin Singletary rushed 13 times for 51 yards and a touchdown in a 24-10 win over the New England Patriots in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Singletary is in danger of being overtaken by James Cook, but at least he scored in this one. He'll be more desperation play than what the heck flex next week against the Jets. |
Devin Singletary player page
Bills | Josh Allen tosses two TDs Thu Dec 1, 11:11 PM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 22 of his 33 passes for 223 yards and two touchdowns and rushed eight times for 20 yards in a 24-10 win over the New England Patriots in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: This is what a floor game looks like for Allen, but he had a long touchdown called back and the Bills didn't have to press to keep up with the Patriots. He'll try to avenge the loss to the Jets next week at home. |
Josh Allen player page
Bills | Dawson Knox back in action Thu Dec 1, 10:27 PM
Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills TE Dawson Knox (undisclosed) was able to return to the Week 13 game against the New England Patriots after briefly exiting with an undisclosed injury.
| Footballguys view: Knox has gone cold for fantasy. You can move on to another streamer next week, but pickings will be slimmer with six teams on bye. |

Cowboys | Dallas' Thursday injury report Thu Dec 1, 05:14 PM
Dallas Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs (illness), WR Michael Gallup (illness) and OT Terence Steele (personal) did not practice on Thursday, Dec. 1. Also, S Jayron Kearse (shoulder), DE DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) and LB Anthony Barr (hamstring) were limited.
| Footballguys view: Watch Gallup's injury as the Cowboys prepare for a Sunday night game against the Colts. Some of you out there might be considering Gallup a flex play, so make sure other options can be ready if he doesn't get over his illness. |

Browns | David Njoku misses practice again Thu Dec 1, 05:12 PM
Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (knee) did not practice once again on Thursday, Dec. 1.
| Footballguys view: That's back-to-back DNPs for Njoku. We'll see what this passing game looks like with QB Deshaun Watson under center against the Texans on Sunday. Watson may not have Njoku available in Week 13. |
