Buffalo Bills WR Mecole Hardman (calf) has a chance to be activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Dec. 20, in time to play in Week 16's game versus the Cleveland Browns, according to head coach Sean McDermott.
| Footballguys view: The Bills could use help at the receiver position, but Hardman is most likely a gadget guy or part-time player upon his return. |

Cardinals | Marvin Harrison Jr. plans to play through pain Sat Dec 20, 02:28 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) plans to play in Week 16's game versus the Atlanta Falcons after having missed the previous two contests due to a heel injury. However, he will not be at full strength and claimed that he will 'probably' be playing injured for the rest of the season.
| Footballguys view: Harrison is going to give it a go and play through this heel injury. Against the Falcons on Sunday, we like Harrison as a WR2/flex play. With Harrison out there for the Cardinals, it does ding the potential number of targets for Michael Wilson (who is like a WR3/flex in Week 16). |
Falcons | Coach thinks Drake London will play Sat Dec 20, 02:17 PM
Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said that he expects WR Drake London (knee) to play in Week 16's game versus the Arizona Cardinals.
| Footballguys view: London hasn't played since Week 11, and he was limited a couple of days in practice. However, he was a DNP on Friday which puts some doubt on his status. Morris believes London will play, and in a matchup against the Cardinals he could have a nice week of production. Double-check his status before kickoff, but London could finish as a WR1 in Week 16 if he plays. |
Rams | Davante Adams likely to miss another game Sat Dec 20, 02:16 PM
Los Angeles Rams WR Davante Adams (hamstring) is not expected to be available for the Week 17 game, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Adams was not able to play in Week 16 on Thursday against the Seahawks. The Rams will be without him again, this time against the Falcons in Week 17. Get ready for another monster game from Puka Nacua if/when Adams misses time. The Rams need to get Adams as healthy as possible before they make a run at the Super Bowl. |

Broncos | Pat Bryant ready to go for Week 16 Fri Dec 19, 06:25 PM
Denver Broncos WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) was listed as a full participant for Friday, Dec. 19, and he was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 16 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Pat Bryant had started to emerge as the Broncos' secondary receiver before this hamstring injury caused him to miss Week 15's game. In his absence, Troy Franklin returned to his role as the WR2 and caught six balls for 85 yards and a score. It's tough to know exactly who will play what role in Week 16, but Bryant has some usage as a flex play in deep leagues. |

Cardinals | Questionable tag for Marvin Harrison Fri Dec 19, 06:12 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is listed as questionable for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: When asked about his expected return this week, Harrison responded, "We're going to see." Our rankings favor Harrison over Michael Wilson, but both sit on the WR2/WR3 fringe. If Harrison cannot play, Wilson would move into the top ten. |

Falcons | Drake London misses practice Fri Dec 19, 05:31 PM
Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London (knee) did not participate in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is listed as questionable for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: Early on Friday, Raheem Morris said he expected London to return on Sunday, so this feels like a non-story. London missed four games with this knee injury, and returning in Week 16 presents a few challenges. He is coming back from injury and will be without Michael Penix Jr. While Kirk Cousins has looked solid over the past couple of weeks, it is difficult to project London as the top-five wide receiver he was before the injury. You are still starting him in fantasy lineups if he is active, but both his floor and ceiling are slightly lower than they were during his blistering pre-injury pace. |

Vikings | Jalen Nailor should play Fri Dec 19, 05:20 PM
Minnesota Vikings WR Jalen Nailor (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is not on the injury report for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: Nailor is coming off a two-touchdown game, tempting fantasy managers to start him this week against the Giants. However, aside from those two games, he has not contributed much in fantasy this year. He is an extremely risky start, falling into our WR5 range. |
Steelers | Week 16 injury report for Pittsburgh Fri Dec 19, 05:02 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers CB James Pierre (calf), G Isaac Seumalo (triceps), and LB T.J Watt (lung) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 16 against the Detroit Lions.

Colts | Alec Pierce looking good Fri Dec 19, 03:52 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce (Achilles) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 19.
| Footballguys view: In his first game with Philip Rivers, Pierce managed just one catch for 16 yards. Rivers demonstrated the ability to diagnose defenses and find open receivers, but his arm clearly lacked strength. Pierce's role as a downfield receiver makes for a poor fit with a noodle-armed quarterback. Based on last week's performance, it is difficult to consider starting him. |
Colts | Josh Downs practicing fully Fri Dec 19, 03:47 PM
Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs (personal) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 19.
| Footballguys view: Downs' role as a short-distance player who receives manufactured touches could make for a sneaky matchup with Philip Rivers. Downs caught Rivers' only touchdown last week. He is in the WR4 tier but offers more upside than most other players in that range. |

Ravens | No designation for Zay Flowers Fri Dec 19, 03:37 PM
Baltimore Ravens WR Zay Flowers (neck) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is not on the injury report for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: After a Thanksgiving dud, Flowers has bounced back in his last two games. He caught eight passes for 124 yards against the Steelers in Week 15 and three for 68 yards and a touchdown last week against the Bengals. He is a high-end WR2 heading into Week 16's matchup against the Patriots. |
Zay Flowers player page
Ravens | Rashod Bateman should play Fri Dec 19, 03:34 PM
Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman (ankle) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is not on the injury report for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: Bateman was white-hot on touchdowns last year, scoring on one out of every five receptions. This year, that touchdown rate has nearly been cut in half, limiting his fantasy relevance. Bateman can always win a week with a single big play. However, he is only worth starting consideration in extremely deep leagues. |
Rashod Bateman player page
Chiefs | JuJu Smith-Schuster not on injury report Fri Dec 19, 03:26 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (rib) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is not on the injury report for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: Smith-Schuster joins Marquise Brown as a desperation start this week. Rashee Rice is out, but an offense led by Gardner Minshew carries significant downside. Smith-Schuster has been effective playing in Rice's role in the past, but that role is not as valuable without Patrick Mahomes under center. |
JuJu Smith-Schuster player page
Chiefs | Hollywood Brown set to play Fri Dec 19, 03:18 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown (non-injury) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 19, and is not on the injury report for Week 16.
| Footballguys view: With Rashee Rice out, Hollywood Brown moves up the rankings, but he remains little more than a desperation start. If Gardner Minshew looks competent, there may be some reason for optimism heading into Week 17. Fantasy managers considering starting Brown this week should take a wait-and-see approach. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice ruled out for Week 16 Fri Dec 19, 03:02 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans.
| Footballguys view: Rice was unable to practice all week after reporting concussion symptoms following Sunday's game. The Chiefs are eliminated from playoff contention, and Patrick Mahomes is out for the year. There is no reason to rush Rice back. Even if he returns in Week 17, his outlook will be severely limited with Gardner Minshew at quarterback. |
Rashee Rice player page
Chargers | Quentin Johnson questionable against the Cowboys Fri Dec 19, 02:59 PM
Los Angeles Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (groin) is listed as questionable for Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys.
| Footballguys view: Johnston missed last week's game with a groin injury but returned to practice this week in a limited capacity. He has gone cold after a hot start to the season. If he is active, the Cowboys allow a tantalizing number of big plays, which is Johnston's specialty. Still, given his recent production and the injury, he should only be started by desperate managers. |
