He’ll replace Dawand Jones on the active roster. Christian has been a vagabond since being drafted by Washington in 2018, playing with the Texans, Chiefs, and Browns. He was with the Titans in training camp and has gone back-and-forth between the Browns and Rams in-season. He’ll provide veteran tackle play for the Browns should Jedrick Wills remain out.19 November 2024
He has “the potential to be gone for the year” and the Bengals are looking to add options in the secondary per Taylor. Turner had some big plays in Week 11’s loss to the Chargers and was just starting to round in to form. It’s a tough loss for a defense that is already best described as beleaguered.19 November 2024
The former Browns general manager likely has no shot at getting a full-time job and, with the trade deadline passing, has little way to make an impact on this roster. He ran the Browns from 2005-2008 and has mostly been an executive or consultant since. He’s the guy who will check to make sure any move he wants to make is cool with Aaron Rodgers for the next seven weeks.19 November 2024
Fields in Week 11 had two rushes for 17 yards after weeks of Steelers coaches talking up a Fields rushing package. Smith said Fields would have had more usage against Baltimore if the Steelers had not stalled out on several first half drives. He stressed that the team does not see Fields as a gadget player. “We have two starting quarterbacks,” Smith said Tuesday. “It’s a very unique situation.” More usage for Fields — especially in the red zone — could make Russell Wilson unviable ...

Douglas is out after five and a half seasons as New York’s general manager. It hardly comes as a shock after the front office’s gamble on 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers turned out disastrously on every front. The Jets are 3-8 in another lost season without any clear path forward outside a total teardown and years-long rebuild. Douglas bet on Rodgers and lost badly. The Jets were 30-64 with Douglas as GM. He’ll join Robert Saleh in unemployment as Rodgers plays out the string with the roster he ...19 November 2024
McCarthy told reporters after the game that he should have allowed Lance to run the offense near the end of the blowout loss. “I could’ve gotten him a series. That’s one thing that I would second-guess myself on,” McCarthy said. “I didn’t want to get into putting him in for a play or two, because he’s more than a gadget player in my opinion. We had him prepared to take a series, and frankly there at the end I should’ve gave him that series, and I regret not doing that.” With th ...19 November 2024
Head coach Mike McCarthy did everything he could to get Lamb involved early and often but an early injury to tight end Jake Ferguson meant the Texans could continuously roll additional coverage to Lamb. Furthermore, quarterback Cooper Rush made several off-target throws directed at Lamb, which Lamb released on the sideline with a passionate display of frustration. It’s hard not to point to the offseason contract sagas between Lamb and Prescott as at least contributing factors to a lost season. ...19 November 2024
Turpin took a quick slant 64 yards to the house on the first play of the second quarter to bring the Cowboys within striking distance of the Texans before the break, catching two more short area passes before his fantasy line came to a conclusion. Turpin isn’t likely to remain in the game plan moving forward but fantasy managers that took shots in best ball were rewarded for their last-round gamble.19 November 2024
Schoonmaker filled in admirably for Jake Ferguson after the starter left following his only catch of the game with a concussion, only to be ruled out immediately after leaving the field. The Cowboys are on a short week following a Monday Night Football game, making it more difficult for Ferguson to clear protocol, particularly considering he was ruled out so quickly on Monday. That could leave Schoonmaker in a good spot to see heavy volume once again when the Cowboys face the Commanders in Week ...19 November 2024
Tolbert was a virtual afterthought on a night quarterback Cooper Rush targeted a ridiculous 12 pass-catchers, partly induced by the departure of tight end Jake Ferguson after just one catch. All fantasy value left with Tolbert quickly evaporated when Dak Prescott went down for the season.19 November 2024
Schultz largely played as the outlet with the return of Nico Collins, matching both Collins and Tank Dell in targets but lagging behind the top duo in yards per reception. Schultz could return sporadic fantasy utility down the stretch but remains an inconsistent option now that Collins is back from an extended absence.19 November 2024
Coming off a game in which he went for 74 yards and caught his first touchdown, fantasy exuberance swiftly came crashing back to earth with the return of Nico Collins. Metchie shouldn’t see many weeks of fantasy viability for as long as the top two receivers remain healthy in Houston.19 November 2024
The yardage totals appear nice on the surface until you realize 64 of those yards came on a KaVontae Turpin slant that he housed by out-running a two-high alignment. Even so, the counting stats were a vast improvement from his performance a week ago. Rush targeted 12 different pass-catchers, with the team down yet another pass-catcher following the departure of tight end Jake Ferguson with a concussion after his only reception. The Cowboys clearly have some soul-searching to do with the season n ...19 November 2024
Dowdle played the bulk of the first half snaps for an underperforming backfield but committed three costly drops before the break that saw both Ezekiel Elliott and Deuce Vaughn find their way into snaps during the final two quarters. All fantasy value left in this backfield likely went with the wind with the injury to quarterback Dak Prescott.19 November 2024
Mixon scored two first-half touchdowns but completely took over the game after the break, punching in a third score with under five minutes to play in the fourth quarter. Mixon has now scored at least once in six consecutive games and has gone over 100 yards on the ground in five of his previous six games, with Week 11 marking the third time this season in which he has scored multiple times. The veteran running back continues to perform as one of the top fantasy values after falling to the fifth ...19 November 2024
Collins took a screen 77 yards to the house on the first play from scrimmage, only for it to be wiped off the scoreboard due to an ineligible man downfield. He had another reception erased from his ledger after a successful challenge, leaving him with an uninspiring 54 yards in his return to the active roster. Even so, Collins made it through the game fully healthy as he looks to continue his torrid start to the season he enjoyed prior to injury. Up next is a difficult matchup against the Titans ...19 November 2024
Dell matched Nico Collins in targets, receptions, and yardage, but it was clear on the field who the alpha pass-catcher is in this offense now that Collins is healthy again. Collins had a 77-yard touchdown called back for an ineligible man downfield on the first play from scrimmage and also had another catch overturned after a successful challenge, with Dell seeing most of his usage as the second read in the offense. Dell will always see a few designed touches to leverage his upside with the bal ...19 November 2024
Stroud started hot while the game remained close but took a back seat to Joe Mixon in the second half as the Texans played with a substantial lead. Two first half touchdowns by Mixon were added to in the fourth quarter, accounting for all three offensive scores on the evening. Stroud did have a touchdown wiped off the board due to penalty after Nico Collins took the first play from scrimmage to the house, only to be backed up by an ineligible man downfield. Either way, Stroud guided the Texans t ...19 November 2024
Ferguson was forced from the game early in the first quarter and has already been ruled out for the remainder, having been placed in the league’s concussion protocol. Already shorthanded without quarterback Dak Prescott, the Cowboys face an early 14-0 deficit against the Texans and will be forced to claw their way back into the game minus one of their primary pass-catchers. Ferguson caught his lone target for 11 yards prior to departing and could be looking at an uphill battle to gain clearanc ...19 November 2024
Bosa injured his hip and oblique in the team’s Week 11 loss to the Seahawks, raising concerns after the veteran pass rusher came into the week with oblique discomfort. The new injury is reportedly on the other side, with initial reports indicating it could be a “compensation injury,” meaning the other muscles surrounding the affected area were working to overcome an injury elsewhere. Fans will want to keep an eye on his status after a devastating loss that dropped the 49ers into last place ...
