  49ers | Christian McCaffrey added to injury report    Sat Dec 13, 03:58 PM

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (back) was added to the Week 15 injury report Saturday, Dec. 13, because of a back injury and is listed as questionable.

Footballguys view: McCaffrey was limited in practice this week. On Thursday, he was listed with an illness, but on Friday, he was a full participant. Now, he's on the injury report with a back injury. Although ESPN's Adam Schefter reports McCaffrey "should be good to go," it's the Titans, so the 49ers should control this game. They might shut McCaffrey down if/when they jump out to a big lead... assuming he plays. The game is Sunday afternoon, so have another plan ready just in case. Brian Robinson might be in line to do more in Week 15.

  Rams | Tutu Atwell back on 53-man roster    Sat Dec 13, 03:01 PM

Los Angeles Rams WR Tutu Atwell (hamstring) was activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Dec. 13.

Footballguys view: Atwell has been practicing for some time, and the Rams feel he's ready for game action. He gives QB Matthew Stafford another big-play option behind Davante Adams and Puka Nacua. Atwell is merely a 'what the heck' flex option if he's out there in Week 15.

  Packers | Pierre Strong will be available    Sat Dec 13, 02:29 PM

Green Bay Packers practice squad RB Pierre Strong was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Dec. 13, and will be available for the Week 15 game.

Footballguys view: Josh Jacobs had two DNPs and one limited (Friday) practice this week. Emanuel Wilson was put on the injury report as questionable on Saturday with an illness. We expect Jacobs to start against the Broncos, but check the inactive list before this game to be sure about any of these Packers' backs.

  Packers | Emanuel Wilson questionable for Week 15    Sat Dec 13, 02:28 PM

Green Bay Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (illness) was added to the Week 15 injury report Saturday, Dec. 13, because of an illness and is listed as questionable.

Footballguys view: Josh Jacobs is good to go, although he's missed time this week in practice with a knee injury. Jacobs is questionable and now Wilson is questionable too. The Packers elevated Pierre Strong from their practice squad just in case. Watch the inactive list before Sunday afternoon's game.

Indianapolis Colts practice squad QB Philip Rivers was signed to the 53-man roster Saturday, Dec. 13. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Rivers is going to start for the Colts in Week 15 against the Seahawks. Expect a healthy dose of Jonathan Taylor in this matchup. Riley Leonard may have some packages as the backup to Rivers.

  Dolphins | De'Von Achane likely to play    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (ribs) is expected to play in Week 15's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to head coach Mike McDaniel.

Footballguys view: Against the Steelers on Monday night, Achance could post big numbers (again). He's an RB1 from a fantasy perspective, even with this ribs injury. This will come down to pain tolerance and protection to get Achane through the contest without setback.

  Packers | Jordan Love torching defenses deep    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love has completed 13 passes, including four touchdowns, of 20-plus air yards since Week 8, and those completions have gone to seven different receivers.

Footballguys view: Love is going to test his deep-passing ability on the road against the Broncos in Week 15. The Broncos' defense features a strong pass rush and top-notch secondary. Per Sumer Sports, the Broncos only allow 29 percent of passes thrown over 20 yards to be completed - one of the best marks in the NFL (league average is 35.9 percent on such throws). We've got Love as a QB2 option from a fantasy perspective in Week 15.

  Browns | Shedeur Sanders learning balance    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders said he is working on finding a balance between hunting big plays and keeping the offense on schedule. 'Sometimes you get in situations where you got to understand the play's over, and I'm improving in that,' Sanders said.

Footballguys view: Sanders loves to throw the ball. In fact, he'll often hold onto the ball too long and drift back (which is a sin in the NFL) while waiting for routes to develop. Sanders can be an advanced pro passer, with deft touch and accuracy, but he needs to learn how to better get rid of the ball quickly and sometimes take what the defense is giving him. He'll get the rest of his rookie season to make strides in that area.

  Giants | Wan'Dale Robinson in a great spot    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

New York Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson is averaging 10.6 targets over his last five games, and in Week 15, he faces a Washington Commanders' defense that is allowing a league-high 12.6 yards per reception.

Footballguys view: Robinson's year has seen him change roles depending on the situation. He can be a deep threat with his speed and ball-tracking ability. However, when rookie QB Jaxson Dart is under center, we see Robinson as more of a short-area receiver. Against the Commanders (with Dart starting), we like Robinson as a WR2/flex option in Week 15.

  Eagles | A.J. Brown surging    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Philadelphia Eagles WR A.J. Brown is averaging 7.8 receptions, 11.5 targets and 97.8 receiving yards over his past four games.

Footballguys view: Brown has three 100-yard receiving games in a row, and he's likely to make it four against the Raiders in Week 15. The Eagles have lost the three previous games, but playing against the Raiders should get them back in the "W" column. Brown is a WR1 for Fantasy GMs.

  Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett topping the charts    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett ranks first in the NFL in passing yards, completions and pass attempts since taking over as the starter in Week 6.

Footballguys view: Things look so much different for the Cardinals' offense with Brissett running the show. Brissett completed 25-of-44 attempts for 271 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in the Cardinals' Week 14 loss against the Rams. This week, he'll face another aggressive defense in the Houston Texans. Entering his age-34 season in 2026, Brissett is under contract through next season.

  Falcons | Kyle Pitts sticking in Atlanta?    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts' three-touchdown performance in Week 15 could push the Falcons to give Pitts the franchise tag in the offseason or to offer him a long-term deal, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Footballguys view: Pitts' performance on Thursday against the Buccaneers fed families. Well, for Fantasy GMs who started him as he caught 11-of-12 targets for 166 yards and three touchdowns in the Falcons' Week 15 win over the Buccaneers. Most players hate the franchise tag, so Pitts and his camp may play hardball if that's the route the Falcons take. If tagged, the two sides would have until mid-July to work out a new deal.

  NFL | Dohnte Meyers making the rounds    Sat Dec 13, 12:30 PM

Canadian Football League WR Dohnte Meyers recently worked out for the Denver Broncos, Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings, according to a source.

Footballguys view: Meyers was picked up as an undrafted free agent by the Falcons (as a tryout player) in 2023 after playing college football at Delta State (Division II) and Presbyterian College (FCS). He didn't make it with the Falcons and then took his talents to Canada. The Saskatchewan Roughriders added him, and he's spent two seasons North of the border. In 2025, Meyers earned CFL West All-Star honors and won a Grey Cup. Meyers totaled 65 receptions for 1,056 yards and eight touchdowns in Canada's 2025 season. Teams have interest, and after such a productive season, he might have a chance to get back to the NFL.

  Bears | CHI optimistic that Rome Odunze will play    Sat Dec 13, 12:15 PM

The Chicago Bears are hopeful that WR Rome Odunze (foot) will be able to play in Week 15's game versus the Cleveland Browns, according to multiple sources.

Footballguys view: Odunze has been limited in practice all week. He had to miss Week 14, but it seems like he's trending to play on Sunday. If Odunze is out there, Fantasy GMs should consider him a deep flex play.

  Colts | Riley Leonard could see some playing time in Week 15    Sat Dec 13, 12:06 PM

Indianapolis Colts QB Riley Leonard (knee) could see some playing time in Week 15's game versus the Seattle Seahawks, even though QB Philip Rivers has been named the starting quarterback, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Footballguys view: Who knows what Rivers is going to look like in his first game back in five seasons. That means the Colts will have Leonard ready for at least some packages if not completely taking over if things look disastrous with the 44-year old quarterback. Fantasy GMs should not be counting on Rivers, and temper expectations for the entire offense in Week 15 (and beyond).

  Colts | Philip Rivers to start Week 15's game    Sat Dec 13, 11:50 AM

The Indianapolis Colts will elevate QB Philip Rivers from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dec. 13, and he will start Week 15's game versus the Seattle Seahawks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo.

Footballguys view: Everyone is going to be watching to see how much Rivers can still look like his old self. This is his first game action since January of 2021, so we're keeping our expectations low. The Colts see him as a better option due to his familiarity with Shane Steichen's offense, even though Riley Leonard (knee) practiced fully this week.

  Patriots | D'Ernest Johnson to be added to active roster    Sat Dec 13, 11:34 AM

The New England Patriots plan to sign RB D'Ernest Johnson to their active roster from the practice squad, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

Footballguys view: Johnson is a seasoned veteran who can be counted on as a three-down player. He'll be the Patriots' no.3 running back behind TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson.

  Patriots | Terrell Jennings to be placed on IR    Sat Dec 13, 11:19 AM

The New England Patriots will place RB Terrell Jennings (concussion) on the Reserve/Injured list because of a concussion, according to a source.

Footballguys view: He will miss the team's next four games but should be able to return for the postseason. Jennings helped carry the load for the Patriots while Rhamondre Stevenson missed time earlier this year. With Stevenson back, Jennings saw his role shrink and now misses a month with this concussion. D'Ernest Johnson is the no.3 back for the Patriots now.

  Jets | Adrian Martinez to be QB2    Sat Dec 13, 10:57 AM

New York Jets QB Adrian Martinez will serve as the No. 2 quarterback for Week 15's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.

Footballguys view: Martinez will be the primary backup to Brady Cook, who makes the first start of his career in Week 15. Coming out of Kansas State (Nebraska transfer) as an undrafted free agent in 2023, Martinez has spent time with the Jets before and was with the 49ers earlier this season. Martinez is a running quarterback who was the UFL MVP in 2024 and a champion with the Birmingham Stallions.

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (calf) will play in Week 15's game versus the Minnesota Vikings, even though he is officially listed as questionable on the injury report, according to head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

Footballguys view: Good news for the Cowboys here. Against the Vikings on Sunday night, we like Ferguson as a low-end TE1 for Fantasy GMs out there.

  Ravens | Rashod Bateman's status to be determined Saturday    Sat Dec 13, 09:20 AM

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that a decision on the availability of WR Rashod Bateman (ankle) for Week 15's game against the Cincinnati Bengals will be made Saturday, Dec. 13. Bateman is officially listed as questionable on the injury report.

Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs aren't counting on Bateman, and neither should the Ravens in Week 15. It seems like he had a setback with this ankle injury during the week, and that's why he was a DNP on Friday.
