Vikings | Jordan Mason finds end zone in Week 14 Sun Dec 7, 04:33 PM
Minnesota Vikings RB Jordan Mason rushed 11 times for 52 yards and a touchdown in Week 14 against the Washington Commanders, while he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Mason is running well, and the offense looks good when he is on the field. He is worth carrying as a potential matchup flex who also has upside if Aaron Jones gets hurt (again). The Cowboys run defense has been improved since they got Kenny Clark and Quinnen Williams in trades, so next week is not the best one to roll Mason out there as a what-the-heck flex play. |
Seahawks | Rashid Shaheed posts special teams TD Sun Dec 7, 04:28 PM
Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed caught four passes for 67 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He was targeted five times during the game. He also returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown.
| Footballguys view: Shaheed's kickoff return came at the open of the second half to break a 6-6 tie and the Seahawks never looked back. Sam Darnold played one of his best halves of the season after that, and Shaheed contributed. He is worth a pickup, especially in .5 and nonPPR leagues with Darnold getting warm heading into a matchup with a stunned Colts team. |
Vikings | Aaron Jones totals 14 touches Sun Dec 7, 04:28 PM
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones rushed 14 times for 76 yards in Week 14 against the Washington Commanders, and he did not have a reception on a single target.
| Footballguys view: Jones wasn't a fantasy force, but he didn't leave the game with an injury this week and he ran well with JJ McCarthy actually looking like a quarterback in command of his offense. Consider Jones a what-the-heck flex against the Cowboys next week. |

Vikings | J.J. McCarthy tosses three touches Sun Dec 7, 04:24 PM
Minnesota Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy completed 16-of-23 passes for 163 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 14 against the Washington Commanders, while running six times for 19 yards.
| Footballguys view: This was the best game of McCarthy's pro career, but it was against possibly the worst pass defense in the league. Still, confidence is a big part of performance for young quarterbacks, and McCarthy should be more confident heading to Dallas next week. He's worth a look as a QB2/Superflex or Daniel Jones emergency replacement next week. |
Vikings | Andrew Van Ginkel records interception Sun Dec 7, 04:23 PM
Minnesota Vikings LB Andrew Van Ginkel posted four total stops with a solo tackle, two passes defensed and an interception in Week 14 against the Washington Commanders.

Seahawks | Jaxon Smith-Njigba catches two TDs Sun Dec 7, 04:20 PM
Seattle Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught seven passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He was targeted 10 times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Smith-Njigba's only floor game of the season last week feels like a distant memory now. Believing in Smith-Njigba (really, believing in Sam Darnold) was of the wisest decisions you could have made in fantasy leagues this season. A lot of Smith-Njigba teams will have byes in the traditional first week of the fantasy playoffs next week. |

Seahawks | Kenneth Walker quiet in Week 14 Sun Dec 7, 04:16 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III rushed for 29 yards on 10 carries against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14.
| Footballguys view: Walker got a few more opportunities than Zach Charbonnet, but wasn't as effective a runner and didn't get the targets in the passing game that he got in the last two games. He's only a what-the-heck flex against the Colts next week. |
Commanders | Treylon Burks, Colson Yankoff blanked Sun Dec 7, 04:14 PM
Washington Commanders WR Treylon Burks and TE Colson Yankoff were each targeted once in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, but both players went without a reception or any offensive statistics.

Seahawks | Zach Charbonnet posts 66 total yards Sun Dec 7, 04:08 PM
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet rushed for 46 yards on seven carries against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He also caught two passes for 20 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: It's December and the Klint Kubiak offense is still much better at moving the ball through the air than it is on the ground. Charbonnet was more effective than Ken Walker III in this game, but neither mattered for fantasy. Both are what-the-heck flex plays against the Colts next week. |

Commanders | Deebo Samuel hauls in four receptions Sun Dec 7, 04:01 PM
Washington Commanders WR Deebo Samuel registered a team-best four receptions for 27 yards on six targets in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings.
| Footballguys view: Samuel had his hands on a fourth down pass in the end zone on the opening drive, but couldn't haul it in. The rest of the day was miserable for the Commanders offense, so Samuel was a Week 14 bust. He's just a what-the-heck flex at best against the Giants while we wait to see if Jayden Daniels will be available for Week 15. |

Commanders | Terry McLaurin targeted six times Sun Dec 7, 03:58 PM
Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin went for three receptions for 41 yards on six targets in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings.
| Footballguys view: McLaurin never really had a chance to follow up his big Week 13 with another strong fantasy showing. While we wait to hear if Jayden Daniels will be available against the Giants, McLaurin is still a viable flex with Marcus Mariota, but his ceiling is much higher with Daniels. |

Commanders | Jacory Croskey-Merritt with seven totes Sun Dec 7, 03:55 PM
Washington Commanders RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt rushed seven times for 32 yards in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, while he was not involved in the passing game.
Link to story Commanders | Chris Rodriguez Jr. runs for 52 yards Sun Dec 7, 03:52 PM
Washington Commanders RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed 10 times for a team-best 52 yards in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, and he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Rodriguez ran well, but he had a very limited opportunity as the Commanders fell behind quickly. Jayden Daniels left the game, but it might have been precautionary. Rodriguez is probably still a what-the-heck flex against the Giants even if Daniels can't go. |
Seahawks | Three touchdowns for Sam Darnold Sun Dec 7, 03:49 PM
Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Darnold went 20-for-30 for 249 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He also rushed for 23 yards on three carries during the game.
| Footballguys view: Darnold was sacked at the one and then intercepted trying to do too much on an extended play to open the game, but he settled down on a field goal drive at the end of the first half and then made short work of the Falcons defense in the second half. He has been too inconsistent to trust in 1QB leagues lately, but this outcome is encouraging heading into a home game against a shellshocked Colts team. |

Washington Commanders QB Marcus Mariota completed 2-of-4 passes for 30 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, finishing up for the injured QB Jayden Daniels (elbow). Mariota also ran twice for seven yards with a lost fumble.

Ravens | Keaton Mitchell out for rest of game Sun Dec 7, 03:30 PM
Baltimore Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell (knee) left the Week 14 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the second half due to a knee injury. He had six receptions for 76 yards, including a 55-yard scamper, while he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Mitchell has been an important part of a Ravens offense that has been underachieving. Justice Hill is on injured reserve, so if Mitchell is out against the Bengals in Week 15, the Ravens backfield will be one-dimensional. |

Washington Commanders TE Zach Ertz (knee) left the Week 14 game against the Minnesota Vikings in the second half due to an apparent knee injury, and he was helped from the field before being carted to the locker room.
| Footballguys view: The injury is feared to be an ACL and Ertz was very emotional after suffering the injury. The Commanders are in a lost season, so they should take a long look at 2024 second round pick Ben Sinnott, who has not progressed as hoped so far. |

Link to story Commanders | Jayden Daniels questionable to return Sun Dec 7, 02:45 PM
Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) left the Week 14 game against the Minnesota Vikings due to an elbow injury, and he is questionable to return. He took a hard shot to his left elbow, leaving for the blue medical tent in the third quarter. QB Marcus Mariota replaced him under center.
| Footballguys view: Daniels and the Commanders offense stalled out in the red zone on their first drive and then the game just got away from them. He was injured in an attempt to play defender after an interception. If you trusted Daniels for fantasy in his first week back from an elbow injury, it blew up in your face. Head coach Dan Quinn said he could have returned, but it was his call to keep Daniels out. We'll be monitoring practice reports heading into the matchup against the Giants to know whether to project Daniels or Marcus Mariota as the starting quarterback. |

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (rib) left the Week 14 game against the New York Jets in the first half due to a rib injury, and he is considered questionable to return. He went to the locker room while walking under his own power. He had seven rushes for 92 yards and a touchdown, while posting a 13-yard reception on his only target, before departing.
| Footballguys view: Achane has been amazingly consistent during a rocky season for the Dolphins. He has to be a common player on fantasy playoff rosters, and after Mike McDaniel said that he was available to return but kept out because of the game script, Achane will likely be ready to go for Week 15 fantasy playoff matchups. |
