Cowboys | Javonte Williams ruled out Fri Jan 2, 03:31 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams (neck, shoulder) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: No Williams and no Malik Davis means rookie Jaydon Blue should get his chance to shine. While reports about Blue this year have been primarily negative, he's got great speed and big-play upside. The Cowboys should serve him a decent workload, and he can make his week with one big play. He's a viable streamer for desperate managers. |

Cowboys | Malik Davis will not play Fri Jan 2, 03:28 PM
Dallas Cowboys RB Malik Davis (calf, eye) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys will be down Davis and Javonte Williams in this matchup. If this game had any importance, they would probably lean on Hunter Luepke, a fullback with a pass-catching skill set. However, since the Cowboys are out of playoff contention, they may look to see what they have in rookie Jaydon Blue, making him an appealing streamer in deep leagues. |

New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (illness) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 2, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Olave is dealing with a blood clot in his lung, putting him out this week. It was reportedly caught early enough that it should be easily treatable, but any fantasy managers relying on Olave in Week 18 will have to look elsewhere. Kevin Austin Jr and Dante Pettis should serve as the team's top receivers, as Mason Tipton will also be out. |
Saints | Mason Tipton ending season on IR Fri Jan 2, 03:10 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Mason Tipton (groin) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Friday, Jan. 2.
| Footballguys view: The Saints are down Tipton and Chris Olave in this matchup. Kevin Austin Jr. and Dante Pettis will be the top receivers in this matchup, dampening expectations for Tyler Shough. |

Bengals | Chase Brown will play in Week 18 Fri Jan 2, 01:26 PM
Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown (illness) will play in Week 18 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: After a bumpy start to the season, Brown has returned to the role of the workhorse RB1 he was last year. He'll split touches with Samaje Perine, but he can be relied on in fantasy as a plug-and-play RB1. |

Jets | Mason Taylor to miss Week 18 Fri Jan 2, 01:22 PM
New York Jets TE Mason Taylor (neck) won't play in Week 18 against the Buffalo Bills.
| Footballguys view: Taylor hasn't played since suffering this neck injury in Week 14. There are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about his long-term outlook, and he's a player worth acquiring in dynasty leagues. His rookie season, however, is over. |
Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown 'trending' towards playing Fri Jan 2, 01:17 PM
Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee, ankle) is 'trending' towards playing in Week 18, according to head coach Dan Campbell.
| Footballguys view: Although the Lions are technically eliminated from the playoffs, the history with Ben Johnson seems to have added extra motivation to this matchup for both teams. St. Brown has played through this injury for the last few weeks, and it would be surprising if he doesn't again on Sunday. |
Amon-Ra St. Brown player page
Bills | Dalton Kincaid questionable for Week 18 Fri Jan 2, 01:15 PM
Buffalo Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) was limited in practice on Friday, Jan. 2, and is listed as questionable.
| Footballguys view: It's hard to trust Kincaid when he's playing through injury. When healthy, he's dominant. When questionable or ailing, he's a back-end streamer. Given his status coming into this game, fantasy managers might want to look elsewhere for their tight end slot. |
Dalton Kincaid player page
Bills | Josh Allen limited in practice Fri Jan 2, 01:13 PM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (foot) was limited in practice on Friday, Jan. 2, but is good to go for Week 18 against the New York Jets.
| Footballguys view: The Bills are mostly locked into their playoff seeding already. Allen has some incentives and milestones that might keep him playing through the whole game. But with the AFC bracket missing some big teams this year, the Bills' biggest goal this year should be the Super Bowl. Even if Allen is active and starts, he and other starters may be pulled early. |

Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota (hand, quadriceps) has been ruled out for Week 18.

Marcus Mariota player page
Jets | Breece Hall limited Fri Jan 2, 12:13 PM
New York Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) will be limited in practice Friday, Jan. 2.
| Footballguys view: Hall had 129 scrimmage yards and a score last week, proving he won't phone it in even with the Jets' season over. Hall's rookie contract comes to an end after this season, and the Jets will have to choose whether to offer him a new deal, let him walk, or place a franchise tag on him. There's little upside in playing him this week, but the Jets have proven to fight hard even in a lost season. |
Dolphins | Jaylen Waddle questionable Fri Jan 2, 12:11 PM
Miami Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ribs) is questionable for Week 18 against the New England Patriots.
| Footballguys view: With no playoff hopes, there's no reason for the Dolphins to push Waddle out there on Sunday if he isn't 100 percent. Fantasy managers relying on him should plan for a pivot option, as he could be limited or pulled early, even if he is active. |
Jaylen Waddle player page
Dolphins | De'Von Achane has grim outlook Fri Jan 2, 12:06 PM
Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) didn't practice Friday, Jan. 2.
| Footballguys view: With the Dolphins' season mathematically over after this game, Achane's likelihood of suiting up on Sunday is bleak. If he doesn't play, expect Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon to shoulder the backfield workload. Mike McDaniel said, "guys who don't practice on Friday typically don't play," so we'd be shocked to see him out there. |
Dolphins | Darren Waller to IR Fri Jan 2, 12:04 PM
Miami Dolphins TE Darren Waller (groin) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Friday, Jan. 2.
| Footballguys view: That will end Waller's season after he surprisingly unretired this offseason. There were flashes throughout his campaign, sandwiched between frequent injuries and rest days. He'll now become a free agent, and the 34-year-old will have time to decide whether he wants to run it back next year or retire again. |
