Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady seems to have righted the ship after a few turnover-filled outings before the Week 13 bye. Brady had thrown seven interceptions in four games heading into the bye, though he now has four scores and no turnovers ahead of a Week 16 matchup with the Lions. Detroit’s defense has allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (groin) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. This is a bit surprising after Carr suffered a significant groin strain in last Thursday’s loss to the Chargers. Carr and backup Marcus Mariota have received repetitions in practice so far this week, so the Raiders likely won’t make a decision until later in the week on who their starter

The Miami Dolphins activated running back Myles Gaskin from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Gaskin missed the last two games but should return as the team’s lead back for an important Week 16 game against the Raiders on Saturday. The 23-year-old has been the Dolphins most productive back in 2020, but he’s also played in just one game since Week 8. The seventh-round pick in

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (calf) thinks he’s on track to play in Week 16 against the division-rival Eagles despite a calf injury that has bothered him for the last three weeks and kept him on the sidelines in Week 15 against the 49ers for the first time in his career. Elliott did some resistance training at the start of practice and went through

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) is the team’s quarterback moving forward. Judge said he’s committed to Jones for Week 16 against the Ravens, the rest of the season and heading into 2021. The No. 6 overall pick in 2019 has had his ups and downs and has dealt with injuries this year. He has thrown only

Washington Football Team quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. took part in the team’s practice on Wednesday after publicly apologizing for violating the league’s COVID-19 protocols. He attended a private party without a mask and was fined $40,000, the largest known fine for a COVID-19 protocol violation. Haskins was also stripped of his captainship, which he earned during a vote in training camp. “I will learn from

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf), wide receiver Golden Tate (calf), defensive back Darnay Holmes (knee) and offensive lineman Matt Peart (ankle) were limited in practice on Wednesday. Engram was questionable to play last week but suited up and caught four of his seven targets for 46 yards in the Week 15 loss to the Browns. The 26-year-old Pro Bowler will have more

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver Tyreek Hill (hamstring), rookie running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle, hip) and linebacker Damien Wilson didn’t practice on Wednesday. Reid said that Hill’s hamstring tightened up on him in the Week 15 win over the Saints and the team wants him to rest. It doesn’t sound like Hill’s injury is serious, but keep a close

The 49ers Defense failed to keep Andy Dalton and the Dallas Cowboys in check in Week 15. This week, the 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals, who are coming off a strong offensive showing. The Cardinals put 33 points on the board in Week 15 as quarterback Kyler Murray threw for 406 yards. The 49ers Defense has had flashes of success throughout the year, but the

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (foot) has been sidelined since Week 8 after fracturing his foot. However, there appears to be a decent chance that he returns to the field this week against the Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers have been ravaged by injuries all year and this week they will be starting their third-string quarterback C.J. Beathard. They’ll be without their No. 1

San Francisco 49ers tight end Jordan Reed managed to score his fourth touchdown of the year in Week 15. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to do much else, catching just two of his five targets for 18 yards. Reed has been a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option over the past month or so and even when he scores, his yardage is so low that the reward he offers

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said that pass-rusher Brian Burns (knee) didn’t practice on Wednesday, but he will not require surgery. Offensive lineman Russell Okung (hip) and cornerback Troy Pride also missed practice Wednesday. Burns, 22, has been fantasy relevant this year with his 56 combined tackles (seven for loss), 20 QB hits, three passes defensed, three forced fumbles and eight sacks in 14

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne had his best fantasy performance of the year in Week 15, catching four passes for 86 yards and a touchdown. However, the bulk of his production came on a 49-yard touchdown pass with 30 seconds to go, when the game was nearly already decided. This week, Bourne and the 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals. The 49ers will have

Cleveland Browns safety Andrew Sendejo (concussion) has been cleared to practice, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. The team also expects defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson (neck) to play in Week 16 against the Jets. Safety Ronnie Harrison (concussion) has also been designated to return from Injured Reserve. Cleveland’s defense held the Giants and backup quarterback Colt McCoy down in their Week 15 win and are

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb, ribs) is trending towards playing in Week 16 against the Buccaneers. The veteran passer was unable to finish the Lions blowout loss last week after injuring his ribs. Stafford also is dealing with torn ligaments in his throwing thumb on top of the Lions organization unable to practice due to a COVID outbreak on the team. The Lions are

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has seen a whopping 29 targets over his past two games. Over that stretch, he’s caught 19 passes for 192 yards and a touchdown. This week, as the 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals, Aiyuk will be catching passes from the team’s third-string quarterback C.J. Beathard with Nick Mullens (arm) out for the year. The dropoff from Mullens to

Houston Texans interim head coach Romeo Crennel said that it’s “unlikely” that offensive lineman Tytus Howard (concussion) will play in Week 16 against the Bengals after suffering a concussion in the Week 15 loss to the Colts. The 24-year-old first-round pick in 2019 has started all 14 games for Houston’s offensive line this year, so his absence would be a downgrade for quarterback Deshaun Watson

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. will go up against a Buccaneers Defense that is allowing the 11th most fantasy points to opposing receivers this season. The veteran receiver is enjoying his best stretch of the season, racking up 40 receptions on 60 targets for 471 yards and three touchdowns over his last six games. Tampa Bay has allowed 16 touchdowns to wide receivers

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that the decision to start either quarterback Brandon Allen (knee) or Ryan Finley in Week 16 against the Texans will come down to how Allen’s knee looks at the end of the week. Allen suffered a knee injury in Week 14 and was inactive in the Monday night win over the Steelers. Finley stepped up against Pittsburgh to

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson will go up against a Buccaneers Defense that is allowing the 10th most fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season. Hockenson disappointed last week with only 18 receiving yards but for the season has 60 receptions for 675 yards with six touchdowns. Tampa Bay has allowed eight touchdowns to tight ends this season but the Lions are also
