Packers | Torn ACL for Micah Parsons Mon Dec 15, 02:11 PM
Green Bay Packers DE Micah Parsons (knee) has been diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament after undergoing an MRI, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: This is the first major injury of Parsons' NFL career. The Packers typically hold out players for 10 months following ACL surgery. This year, receiver Christian Watson returned to game action 294 days after his ACL tear. A similar timeline would have Parsons back in early October next season, meaning he could miss at least four games. His first season with the Packers will end with 12.5 sacks, making him the first player in NFL history with at least 12 sacks in each of his first five NFL seasons. |

Texans | Woody Marks should be OK Mon Dec 15, 12:37 PM
Houston Texans RB Woody Marks (ankle) should be fine, according to head coach DeMeco Ryans. The team will monitor him through the week.
| Footballguys view: Ryans decided to hold Marks, who left Sunday's win over the Cardinals in the second quarter, out for precautionary reasons. He also wanted to "keep rolling with those guys" -- Jawhar Jordan, who was called up from the practice squad over the weekend and ran for 101 yards, and Dare Ogunbowale. "Woody could have come back in the game," Ryans said. "For where he was, felt like Jawhar and Dare were doing a good job, so wanted to make sure Woody is good as we continue to go into the week." The Texans play the Raiders in Week 16. |
Steelers | Jaylen Warren added as questionable Mon Dec 15, 10:52 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (illness) was added to the injury report Monday, Dec. 15, as questionable with an illness.
| Footballguys view: According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Warren woke up sick and is getting fluids, but the running back is reportedly optimistic about playing tonight. Fantasy investors who've already committed a lineup spot might not have many options here. If possible, move him to the flex; secure a fallback option in tonight's game; and watch the inactive report, which will be released 90 minutes before kickoff. |
Jets | Steve Wilks fired Mon Dec 15, 10:50 AM
New York Jets defensive coordinator Steve Wilks was fired Monday, Dec. 15.
| Footballguys view: Passing-game coordinator Chris Harris will be the interim DC and will have play-calling duties. The Jets allowed 82 points in the last two games, including a 48-20 loss Sunday in Jacksonville, in which the defense gave up scores on eight of the first nine series. The Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence became the fifth player in the Super Bowl era (since 1966) with five touchdown passes and one rushing touchdown in a game. Nobody should expect a sudden turnaround, but the move was necessary. |
Packers | Report: Christian Watson's injury isn't believed to be major Mon Dec 15, 10:02 AM
Packers standout WR Christian Watson, who went down yesterday holding his shoulder, did not suffer a major injury, sources tell NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: Watson was hurt in the third quarter when Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II landed on top of him while intercepting a deep pass from Jordan Love. Watson appeared to land hard on his left shoulder, with Surtain's body weight making it worse. Watson was playing in his eighth game of the season after missing the first two months while recovering from last year's knee injury. He had been highly productive since his return with 25 catches for 452 yards and five touchdowns, tied for the most in the league since his return. His status for Saturday's game against the Bears will be determined later in the week. |
Cardinals | Bam Knight has a bad sprain; RB unlikely to play Week 16 Mon Dec 15, 10:01 AM
Cardinals RB Bam Knight, who was carted off Sunday with an ankle injury, suffered what is being described as "a bad sprain," but nothing is broken. Knight will undergo an MRI today to confirm the diagnosis. He is unlikely to play this week.
| Footballguys view: As we noted immediately after this injury, Michael Carter got the vast majority of the work in the backfield after Knight went out. He was productive enough against an elite Texans defense to merit a waiver pickup with a more manageable matchup against the Falcons coming up in Week 16 -- although Emari Demercado could play a greater role in his second week back from his ankle injury. |

Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes expected to have surgery in coming days Mon Dec 15, 02:21 AM
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a season-ending torn ACL in his left knee in the closing minutes of Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers, a result that ended Kansas City's playoff hopes. Mahomes is expected to have surgery in the coming days. He will miss the team's offseason program, and his availability for the start of next season is now in question.
| Footballguys view: Mahomes underwent an MRI after the game that confirmed the injury. "Don't know why this had to happen," Mahomes wrote on social media. "And not going to lie, [it] hurts. But all we can do now is [trust] in God and attack every single day over and over again. Thank you, Chiefs kingdom, for always supporting me and for everyone who has reached out and sent prayers. I [will] be back stronger than ever." Mahomes, 30, has managed to stay free of long-term injuries during his NFL career. Gardner Minshew will take over as the Chiefs starting quarterback. |

49ers | Ricky Pearsall should be fine after tweaking ankle, knee Mon Dec 15, 02:20 AM
49ers receiver Ricky Pearsall dealt with a couple of injuries during Sunday's victory over the Titans, but he should be OK moving forward. "We'll know for sure tomorrow," head coach Kyle Shanahan said. "I would expect it to be alright, but he was battling through a lot today."
| Footballguys view: Pearsall suffered an ankle injury during San Francisco's first offensive possession and was able to return. He then aggravated a previous PCL injury later in the contest that sidelined him for the rest of the matchup. Despite the injuries, Pearsall finished with six catches on seven targets for 96 yards. It was his most productive game since Sept. 21, when he caught eight passes for 117 yards in a victory over Arizona. The 49ers will have an extra day to prepare and for Pearsall to recover, as they'll play the Colts on the road next Monday night. |

Link to story Vikings | J.J. McCarthy accounts for three TDs in Dallas Mon Dec 15, 12:06 AM
Minnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy completed 15 of 24 passes for 250 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception versus the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15. McCarthy also ran the ball four times for 15 yards and a score.
| Footballguys view: McCarthy was far from perfect, but he made more impactful throws than in any of his previous seven starts. As ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert noted, the Vikings' offense is built on chunk plays in the passing game, something McCarthy had not delivered in volume. But he completed five passes that traveled at least 15 yards in the air Sunday night, including a 58-yard throw to Jordan Addison and a 20-yard touchdown to Jalen Nailor. His 250 passing yards are a career high. The Vikings face the Giants in Week 16. |
