Chiefs | Isiah Pacheco downgraded Thu Nov 20, 04:07 PM
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Pacheco missed Week 11, and the team needs him more than ever in Week 12. The Chiefs' playoff hopes are hanging on by a thread, and a game against the Colts could prove to be the knockout blow if they lose. Having Pacheco out there to soften up the Colts defense would help. Let's see what he can do on Friday. |

New York Giants QB Jaxson Dart (concussion) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Dart is trending towards playing in Week 12 against the Lions. He's a runner, and the team isn't going to take that away from him, but it would be nice to see him take fewer hits. Because of Dart's rushing ability, Fantasy GMs can look to him as a potential QB1 on a weekly basis. |
Pittsburgh Steelers TE Jonnu Smith (non-injury) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 20.

Houston Texans RB Dameon Pierce was placed on waivers by the team on Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Pierce is now exposed to the NFL waiver process, and more than a few teams should be interested. He's a nearly 1,000-yard rusher not that long ago (2022, 939 yards rushing) and proven on special teams. |
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (ankle) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Warren is trending in the right direction after a DNP on Wednesday. He's set to play in Week 12 against the Bears. Fantasy GMs can look to Warren as an RB2/flex play. |
Updating a previous report, Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 20.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Jalen McMillan (neck) was seen standing on the sideline of the Bucs' practice on Thursday, Nov. 20. He was not seen with a neck brace that he had been wearing in recent months.
| Footballguys view: Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles said he hopes that McMillan is able to play this season. About a month ago, McMillan was in a neck brace. Without a brace, it seems like he's trending in the right direction. Neck injuries are incredibly tricky to deal with and can be career-threatening if not treated correctly. |
Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (knee) will take part in individual drills Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: Jacobs status is up in the air for Week 12. He did not practice on Wednesday and is getting some very limited work on Thursday. If he can't play, Emanuel Wilson would get the starting nod for the Packers. Stay tuned to see if Jacobs can get out there on Friday. |

Houston Texans RB Joe Mixon (foot) isn't expected to play this season.
| Footballguys view: This foot injury was first deemed minor, and Mixon was expected back. Then, the Texans went out and drafted Woody Marks and signed Nick Chubb. While Chubb has been solid we've seen Marks get more work as the season goes on. Without Mixon for the rest of the year, the Texans will keep working this Marks/Chubb backfield. |

Link to storyCincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow (foot) could play in Week 12 after practicing fully Wednesday, Nov. 19, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. When asked, head coach Zac Taylor said 'I don't know.'
| Footballguys view: Most expected Burrow back in Week 13, but he's ahead of schedule. He hasn't played since mid-September, and his return would be a boost for an offense that is without Ja'Marr Chase (suspension) this week. He's been fully participating, and with no setbacks Burrow could start. |

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) is expected to practice Thursday, Nov. 20.
| Footballguys view: It's a non-throwing hand injury, so there's a chance that Rodgers plays in Week 12. We'll know more when the official injury report comes out as to whether or not this was a full or limited designation. |

Chicago Bears WR Luther Burden III has earned increased snaps, according to head coach Ben Johnson. 'You get what you earn. And I think he's earned the increased snaps, Johnson said. He's steadily climbed.'
| Footballguys view: After averaging around 15 snaps per game, Burden has 33 snaps in each of the last two games. He's not yet producing at a fantasy-relevant rate (mostly WR4/deep flex), but that could begin to change as he plays more. |
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen has 75 rushing touchdowns in his career, and he needs one more to set the record for most career rushing scores by a quarterback in NFL history.
| Footballguys view: That's simply outstanding. In the history of the league, Allen is going down as one of the best with his rushing and passing ability. He's flourished with the Bills, but to work his way towards the "Mount Rushmore" of quarterbacks he would need a Super Bowl championship or two. |

Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: Higbee suffered this injury in Week 11, and the team turned to Terrance Ferguson and Colby Parkinson. It was Parkinson who had a receiving touchdown and becomes a touchdown-dependent TE1 option for Fantasy GMs. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin (fibula) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: Godwin is close to returning after being limited in practice all last week. If he plays in Week 12 against the Rams, Godwin should be counted on as a deep flex play. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: Irving might be able to return in Week 12 against the Rams. If he does, it will be interesting to see how the backfield touches are split after Sean Tucker's breakout performance. Let's see what Irving can do on Friday. If he does play, we'd consider him as a flex option. |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (illness) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: It's an illness here, but let's keep an eye on this as the week goes on. Mayfield and the Buccaneers are set to take on the Rams in a big NFC battle on Sunday night. |

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (illness) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 19.
| Footballguys view: Just like his quarterback Baker Mayfield, Egbuka is limited on Wednesday with an illness. They play the Rams on Sunday night, so make sure everything's cleared up with these two before locking in your lineup. |

Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) did not practice Wednesday, Nov. 19 due to his shin injury.
| Footballguys view: He missed the Week 11 game due to the ailment. It may take more time for Horton to get right. Seattle is looking for a deep postseason run, and Horton's health should be paramount. |
