- DeVonta Smith Held Out Wednesday November 21, 2024Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He was listed as "DNP" for the first practice of last week, as well, before putting in two limited practices and then playing 89% of the offensive snaps vs. Washington. We're expecting Smith to be fine for Sunday night's game vs. the Rams but will […]
- George Kittle Says He'll Play Week 12 November 21, 202449ers TE George Kittle (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He said afterward that he fully expects to play against the Packers this weekend. Kittle can be penciled back into Week 12 fantasy lineups. We'll let you know if something changes with his status.
- Brock Purdy Limited Wednesday November 21, 202449ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. HC Kyle Shanahan hasn't sounded particularly concerned about Purdy's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks, and the fact that Purdy did anything on Wednesday is encouraging. We'll update his status again tomorrow.
- Alexander Mattison & Zamir White Out Wednesday November 21, 2024Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) did not practice on Wednesday. Both guys were knocked out of the Week 11 loss to the Dolphins and are seemingly in danger of missing Sunday's game vs. the Broncos. Their absences would leave the backfield to Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube. The former hasn't tallied […]
- Jake Ferguson Out Wednesday November 21, 2024Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. With just six days to clear protocol, he's a long shot to play vs. the Commanders this weekend. That'll leave TE duties to Luke Schoonmaker and Brevyn Spann-Ford. Schoonmaker racked up six catches on 10 targets in the Week 11 loss to Houston but ran […]
- Darius Slayton A Full-Go Wednesday November 21, 2024Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll play against the Bucs this weekend. Tampa Bay ranks 29th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs, but Slayton would be a desperation fantasy play with QB Tommy DeVito.
- Sam LaPorta On Track For Week 12 Return November 21, 2024Lions TE Sam LaPorta (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. HC Dan Campbell confirmed that LaPorta is "trending the right way" for this weekend's game vs. the Colts. Although he's been one of the most disappointing players in fantasy football this season, LaPorta has finished as a top-8 TE in two of his […]
- Tyjae Spears Sidelined Wednesday November 21, 2024Titans RB Tyjae Spears (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's a long shot to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Texans. His absence would leave RB Tony Pollard in a workhorse role -- albeit in a tough matchup against the league's No. 4 RB defense.
- D'Andre Swift Out Wednesday November 21, 2024Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Matt Eberflus said Swift is dealing with "just a little bit of a groin strain" and said he's "hopeful" Swift will be able to play vs. the Vikings this weekend. It sounds like there's at least some chance, though, that Swift won't be able […]
- Adam Thielen Limited Wednesday November 21, 2024Panthers WR Adam Thielen (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice. HC Dave Canales said Monday that he expects Thielen to play this weekend, but he'd be a shaky fantasy start against the Chiefs' 10th-ranked WR defense.
