Austin Seibert (hip) will be limited during practice this week.

20 November 2024

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said the team would evaluate Seibert at the end of the week to see if you can suit up for Week 11 against the Cowboys after missing Week 10. Seibert has been among the league’s best kickers in 2024, making 25 of 27 field goal tries and all 22 of his extra points. Zane Gonzalez would get another start for Washington if Seibert remains sidelined. Both kickers make for good fantasy options against Dallas.

Giants opened the 21-day practice window for Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist).

20 November 2024


ESPN’s Dan Graziano believes the Giants will “lean” on the run game in Week 11 against the Bucs.

20 November 2024

With Tommy DeVito taking over at quarterback, Graziano makes the (reasonable) assumption that the Giants will play it conservatively on offense, which could mean a heavy dose of rookie RB Tyrone Tracy. Tracy has been efficient by every measure, averaging 5.1 yards per carry with a 47 percent rushing success rate. He’ll face off against a Tampa defense giving up the NFL’s 14th highest rushing success rate in 2024. Tracy is locked in as a top-15 option in Week 11. The Giants have a 61 percent ...

Eagles EDGE Bryce Huff underwent wrist surgery and will miss most of the rest of the regular season.

20 November 2024

Eagles beat writers believe Huff, who has played with a hard cast on his injured wrist over the past two weeks, could return at the end of the regular season or the start of the postseason. Huff’s absence is a loss for an Eagles defense featuring a pass rush that Pro Football Focus grades as the NFL’s second best this season. Huff has two sacks and 11 QB hurries this season.

Cowboys opened the 21-day practice window for WR Brandin Cooks (knee).

20 November 2024


Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said there’s “no thought” of benching K Justin Tucker.

20 November 2024

Tucker for the first time in his 13-year NFL career is struggling mightily to put the ball between the uprights. He’s missed six of his 22 field goal tries in 2024, including two in Baltimore’s Week 11 loss to the Steelers. “You have to find that competition first if you’re going to be blunt about it. Where is that competition? That would be one thing,” Harbaugh said when asked if the team would consider benching Tucker. “The best option right now is to get Justin back on point, beca ...

The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt and Dianna Russini report Jets owner Woody Johnson took increased control over the team this season.

20 November 2024

Rosenblatt and Russini report now-fired general manager Joe Douglas “had already lost some power midway through last season when Johnson took a more active role”. After a Week 4 loss to the Broncos, Johnson “suggested to coaches that they bench Aaron Rodgers”. A week later, he made the decision to fire head coach Robert Saleh “without consulting his general manager”. Johnson also made decisions on player signings and front office firings over the offseason, decreasing Douglas’ powe ...

Bears signed S Adrian Colbert.

20 November 2024

Colbert has not played in a regular season game since 2022, when he appeared in two games for the Bears. The 31-year-old has spent parts of the last seven years with the 49ers, Dolphins, Giants, Jets, Browns, and Bears. He has been in and out of Chicago over the last two season and now returns as the Bears add depth to their secondary.

Steelers LB Alex Highsmith (ankle) did not participate in Tuesday’s practice.

20 November 2024

Highsmith missed Week 11 against the Ravens and has been out since Week 10 due to an ankle injury. Mike Tomlin said last week that Highsmith would be week-to-week and he has not been placed on injured reserve. He has three sacks in six games this season, grading out as one of the Steelers’ best pass-rushers. With back-to-back DNPs to begin the week, expect Highsmith to miss Thursday’s Week 12 game against the Browns, though the mini-bye may allow him to recover enough for Week 13.

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said Jake Ferguson (concussion) will be “hard pressed” to play in Dallas’ Week 12 game against the Commanders.

19 November 2024

Desperate PPR-scam desirers at tight end can start with Luke Schoonmaker, who caught 6-of-10 targets for 56 yards on Monday night. Dallas’ offensive ceiling is probably 20 points right now, but Schoonmaker has made the most of his opportunities when Ferguson has missed time this year, with 12 catches in two games against the Saints and Texans.

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said he’s “hoping” to get Brandin Cooks (knee/IR) back this week.

19 November 2024

Cooks has not played since Week 4 and has little fantasy value to offer in a Cooper Rush-driven offense. The 31-year-old has not been activated off injured reserve yet. Even deep leagues probably have to look at the idea of him providing fantasy value skeptically at this point.

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said Cooper Rush will start in Dallas’ Week 12 game against the Commanders.

19 November 2024

But there will also be a package of plays for Trey Lance. Ultimately this may make neither player superflex viable if they are splitting into each other’s time. Only truly desperate times would call for starting either player against a Commanders defense that is on the upswing in Week 12.

Bengals claimed CB Marco Wilson off waivers from New England.

19 November 2024

It’s the second waiver claim on Wilson in as many years, as the Patriots claimed him in the middle of last season from the Cardinals. Wilson has yet to deliver above a 61.2 PFF coverage grade in his four years in the NFL, but with DJ Turner (clavicle) down, the Bengals clearly needed depth at corner.

NFL suspended Cardinals LB Markus Bailey six games for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.

19 November 2024

Bailey has been a special-teams-only player for Arizona this year. He’s mainly played as a depth linebacker for the Bengals on run downs in his NFL career after they drafted him with a seventh-round pick in 2020. Bailey will be eligible to return at the end of the season, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the Cardinals moved on given his sparse role for the team.

Patriots signed LB Titus Leo off Indianapolis’ practice squad.

19 November 2024

It’s a depth shuffling for New England, who put Curtis Jacobs (head) on injured reserve and waived Ochaun Mathis. Leo has no NFL snaps yet as a 2023 sixth-round pick for the Colts. He did have a 64.1 PFF preseason grade in 2023.

Browns EDGE Myles Garrett (hip) did not practice on Tuesday.

19 November 2024

He spoke to reporters before practice and it sounds likely that he’ll give it a go on Tuesday, but this is a new listing. Garrett has seven sacks in 10 games this season and a surprise absence would give the Pittsburgh passing game a little more breathing room to work with on Thursday night.

David Njoku (knee) was limited in Tuesday’s practice.

19 November 2024

We’ve heard almost nothing from beat reporters or Browns media about Njoku missing this game, so we’ll stick with believing he’s just being managed for the moment. Njoku caught 9-of-10 targets for 81 yards last week against the Saints and played a season-high 86 percent of the snaps.

Elijah Moore (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday’s practice.

19 November 2024

Moore’s status for Week 12 doesn’t seem overly endangered at this point after a pair of limited practices ahead of Thursday night. Bye week attrition means he’ll be on the WR3/FLEX line even against the Steelers defense. Moore has 29 targets in three weeks with Jameis Winston.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said George Kittle was “close” to playing against the Seahawks in Week 11 and should be able to practice Wednesday.

19 November 2024

Kittle was officially questionable last week with the hamstring injury, and was supposedly going to test it in pre-game workouts but was declared inactive without even getting on the field before the game. This is good news, but limited practices won’t exactly bring us any closer to a conviction that Kittle will play in Week 12.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Brock Purdy came out of Week 11’s game against Seattle with “soreness in his right shoulder.”

19 November 2024

In other words, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him on the injury report this week. Shanahan said much the same thing about George Kittle’s hamstring after Week 10, before he missed Week 11. We wouldn’t bet on Purdy missing a game, to be clear, but this should at least open the door to some question about his Week 12 status.
