ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports “there now is a real chance” Trey Benson (knee) will not be activated from injured reserve this week.

07 December 2025

Benson is entering the final week of his 21-day practice window. If he isn’t activated before the 21 days are up, the Cardinals are forced to leave him on injured reserve for the remainder of the season. Benson practiced on Wednesday two weeks ago but has been listed as a DNP ever since. He appears to have suffered a setback while recovering from the meniscus injury that has sidelined him since Week 4. At this point, it looks more likely than not that he is done for the year. Bam Knight will c ...

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Bucs are not expected to have LT Tristan Wirfs (oblique) for Week 14 against the Saints.

07 December 2025

The same is true of rookie corner Benjamin Morrison, who is dealing with a hamstring injury. Wrifs got in one limited practice this week before being listed as questionable. He was always going to be a long-shot to play after missing the first two practices of the week. The fact that he returned on Friday at least indicates that he could be back for Week 15 versus Atlanta. Graham Barton moved from center to left tackle when Wirfs missed time at the start of the year. The Bucs will likely make th ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Dalton Kincaid (knee/hamstring) “plans to try to play” in Week 14 against the Bengals.

07 December 2025

When a player is ready to go, Schefter and most other reporters will say they are “expected to play.” That Schefter didn’t use those words means Kincaid still has some hurdles to clear before getting the green light. The team will likely test out his hamstring and knee during warmups before making a final call. Assuming all goes well, Kincaid will return for a game teeming without shootout potential. Even in his first game since Week 10, Kincaid will push for a TE1 ranking.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Mike Evans is “pushing to play as soon as Thursday night vs. the Falcons.”

07 December 2025

Evans is currently on injured reserve while recovering from the broken clavicle he suffered in Week 7. The team opened his practice window earlier this week, allowing him to return to the practice field as he prepares to play. Evans has been ruled out for Week 14 already, but it sounds like Week 15 is on the table. If not, fantasy managers can assume he will be back in the lineup for Week 16 versus the Panthers.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni “has been more involved in the offensive preparations this week.”

07 December 2025

The Eagles are currently 19th in points per game and 14th in EPA per play. They ranked seventh and sixth in those metrics last year. There has been significant turnover along their offensive line, in part because of injuries, but not enough to warrant this drastic a falloff. The biggest change Philly was forced to make over the past offseason was at offensive coordinator. Kevin Patullo took over the job after Kellen Moore departed for the head coaching gig in Atlanta. Patullo has been unable to ...

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) is expected to play in Week 14 against the Bears.

07 December 2025

Reed was activated from injured reserve over the weekend. The team then listed him as questionable, largely as a procedural measure. Reed will be active today, though we fully expect his role to be limited in his first game since Week 2. The Packers have been looking for a No. 1 receiver all year. Reed has a clear path to that role in the long run, making him a great stash for the fantasy football playoffs.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Chris Olave (back) is expected to play in Week 14 against the Bucs.

07 December 2025

Olave dealt with back spasms in practice two weeks ago. He played through them versus the Dolphins and caught four passes for 47 yards and a score. It wasn’t his best showing of the year, but he looked fine. He missed Wednesday’s practice this week but was on the field for the following two sessions before being listed a questionable. Per usual, Olave is on track for volume-based WR2 numbers versus the Bucs.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Steelers “are not going to fire Mike Tomlin.”

07 December 2025

At 6-6 with a spiraling offense and a defense that has failed to live up to the hype, the Steelers are seemingly headed for, at best, another short-lived playoff run. They still need to make the postseason, likely by winning the AFC North, to even see another Wild Card Round loss. Pittsburgh fans have yet to experience a losing season under Tomlin. On the other hand, they haven’t seen a playoff win since 2017. His defense-first approach worked wonders when the offense took care of itself. That ...

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Browns DT Mason Graham (ribs) is expected to play in Week 14 against the Titans.

07 December 2025

Graham was listed as questionable after being added to the injury report in the middle of the week. He appears to be good to go now. Graham has five TFLs and .5 sacks this year. The rookie will look to get on board with his first solo sack of the year against fellow top-five pick Cam Ward.

Packers waived WR Malik Heath

07 December 2025

With Jayden Reed (hamstring) activated off injured reserve, the Packers clear the needed room with the waiving of Heath. The 25-year-old will likely revert to the practice squad if he goes unclaimed.

Falcons sign WR Deven Thompkins from the practice squad.

07 December 2025

Thompkins, 25, has been elevated from the practice squad twice. He likely will contribute on special teams.

Cardinals elevated WR Jalen Brooks from the practice squad.

06 December 2025

Brooks is one of two wideouts who were elevated from the practice squad for Week 14 against the Rams. The 2023 seventh-round pick is unlikely to much of an impact, even in a room that is not exactly crowded with quality wideouts.

Lane Johnson (foot) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Chargers.

06 December 2025

As expected, Johnson will miss at least one more game with his foot injury. The hope is that the All-Pro tackle will be back for the Philadelphia offense for Week 15 against Las Vegas.

Broncos signed TE Marcedes Lewis from the practice squad.

06 December 2025

Lewis gets the active roster spot after previously being elevated from the practice squad in his previous action in 2025. He remains off the fantasy radar, but most 41-year-old’s are.

Vikings signed QB John Wolford off their practice squad.

06 December 2025

Wolford’s signing likely means that he’ll be the backup quarterback for JJ McCarthy for Week 14 against the Commanders, with Max Brosmer the emergency third quarterback.

Seahawks activated S Julian Love (hamstring) off injured reserve.

06 December 2025

The Seahawks are also activating Jarran Reed (wrist/thumb) as Seattle is getting two of their core defensive players back for the final five contests of the year. Love should be the starting free safety against Atlanta, while Reed should see plenty of snaps/could start up the middle, as well.

Ty Chandler (knee) won’t play in Week 14 against the Commanders.

06 December 2025

Chandler will not come off injured reserve, so the Vikings will once again go with a Jordan Mason-Aaron Jones backfield for the tilt against the Commanders. Chandler likely wouldn’t have a big role/won’t have one whenever he is activated, anyways.

Jets signed QB Brady Cook from the practice squad.

06 December 2025

Cook will be the backup signal-caller for the Week 14 contest against the Dolphins, as Justin Fields (knee) has been ruled out for that contest versus Miami.

Packers activated Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) off injured reserve.

06 December 2025

Reed was activated, but that doesn’t mean the wideout will play in Week 14 against the Bears. The Packers are listening the third-year wideout as questionable for that contest, and there’s just as good of chance that he’ll return to action in Week 15 as this Sunday. Reed last played in Week 2. If he can actually suit up, he’ll knock Dontayvion Wicks out of the top 70, and perhaps render Romeo Doubs and even Christian Watson a bit more volatile.

Commanders activated WR Noah Brown (groin) from injured reserve.

06 December 2025

Facing the Vikings, Brown will be active for the first time since Week 2. He figures to immediately slot back in as the No. 3 wideout for an offense that has been dealing with receiver injury carnage all season. Good news for Washington, especially with Jayden Daniels also returning, but it’s unlikely to make a ripple in fantasy football.
