New England Patriots defensive back Stephon Gilmore (knee) was helped to the locker room after going down with a non-contact leg injury during Sunday’s game against the Dolphins. One of the best defensive backs in the NFL, Gilmore’s absence could open up opportunities for a Dolphins offense that has struggled so far in their Week 15 contest. Source: Adam Schefter

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Collin Johnson (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. Johnson had the only reception for the Jaguars at the time he exited, an eight-yard first-quarter reception. If he’s unable to return, D.J. Chark Jr. and Laviska Shenault Jr. could see an additional target or two each, though Johnson wasn’t going to play a huge role on

The Denver Broncos Defense shouldn’t have been on anyone’s fantasy radar for Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday, and they proved why as Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen carved them up for 359 yards passing and two touchdowns while also adding two scores and 33 yards on the ground on three carries. One of Buffalo’s scores came on a strip sack of quarterback Drew Lock

Denver Broncos kicker Taylor Russolino, who most recently kicked in the XFL, was forced to make his NFL debut on Saturday against the Bills with regular kicker Brandon McManus still on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. McManus had appeared in 111 of the team’s 112 games since 2014 and had missed just two kicks all year — both from 50-plus yards. So Russolino had to fill big

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler was coming off a two-touchdown performance in Week 14 against the Panthers heading into Saturday’s Week 15 tilt with the Bills. But Hamler really disappointed after his best game of the season, going for just one catch on four targets for just four receiving yards. We warned fantasy managers that Hamler couldn’t be trusted despite his two touchdowns

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick could not make it three straight games with a touchdown in Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday. Not only did Patrick not find the end zone against Buffalo, but he managed just three catches on four targets for 14 yards in the 48-19 blowout loss. A performance like this was coming, as the 27-year-old had just seven catches

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy managed to catch just one of his five targets for 19 yards in the 48-19 loss to the Bills on Saturday in Week 15. Quarterback Drew Lock hasn’t helped Jeudy’s cause in his rookie season, but the Alabama alum did also drop a pass in the contest. The 21-year-old has caught just 45.1 percent of the 91 passes

New England Patriots running back James White (foot) is active for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins. With Damien Harris (foot) out, White should see increased work, as he’ll be competing with Sony Michel and J.J. Taylor for touches. White has just seven catches in the last three games and eight carries, so the low floor keeps him off of the fantasy radar in everything

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant rewarded any fantasy managers that stuck with him after his donut in Week 14 against the Panthers. The second-year tight end caught a season-high eight of a season-high 11 targets for 68 yards and his third touchdown of the year in the Week 15 loss to the Bills on Saturday. It was Fant’s first touchdown grab since Week 2.

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) is active for Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots. With a lot of skill position players out, expect Ahmed to play a major role in this one. Even against a tough defense, Ahmed will get enough opportunities to make him a low-end RB2 option with a solid floor, even if the upside isn’t really there. Source: ESPN

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay had as many carries (11) as teammate Melvin Gordon III against the Bills on Saturday, but he was much less effective, gaining 38 yards on the ground while catching all three of his targets for an additional seven yards in the 48-19 loss. The good news is that Lindsay continues to split the workload right down the middle with

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II is a healthy scratch for Sunday’s game against the Jaguars. Considering Ingram didn’t have a carry last week and played just one offensive snap, this doesn’t really change anything from a fantasy perspective. J.K. Dobbins will serve as the lead back against a Jaguars Defense that has struggled. Fantasy managers should consider Dobbins a high-end RB2 with upside.

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III had one of his best games of the season in the 48-19 loss to the Bills on Saturday in Week 15. Gordon carried the ball 11 times for 61 yards and two touchdowns while also adding four catches on four targets for 20 yards in the passing game. The first-year Bronco was once again the more efficient back

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston was placed on the COVID-19 list Sunday, which will keep him out of Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Winston was expected to serve as the backup quarterback to Drew Brees, but it looks like Taysom Hill will wind up in that role. It’s unclear yet if this will have any impact on the game itself happening, but

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is officially inactive for Sunday’s meeting with the Seattle Seahawks. Gibson was listed as doubtful coming into the game, so this isn’t much of a surprise. J.D. McKissic will be the lead back on Sunday and should be considered a mid-tier RB2 play, though he lacks the upside that a healthy Gibson has. Source: ESPN – Field

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb, ribs) is officially suiting up for Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. There was doubt early in the week about this, but Stafford trended up as game day approached and is good to go against a porous Titans passing defense. The injury concerns are here, but Stafford should be a high-end QB2 play based on the matchup. Source: Ian

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock was coming off his best game of the season in a Week 14 win against the Panthers, but he wasn’t able to deliver an encore, falling flat in a 48-19 loss to Buffalo on Saturday. Lock went just 20-for-32 for 132 yards and a touchdown. He also ran the ball five times for 37 yards, but he lost a crucial

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (calf) is inactive for Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers. Elliott has never missed a game due to injury, so it’s a bit surprising to see that he won’t be giving it a go this week. Tony Pollard will slide into the lead back role and is a solid RB2 option now due to projected volume, even against

Yikes. The Miami Dolphins will reportedly be without three of their top pass-catchers when they take on New England on Sunday, with wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) and tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) both reportedly out despite hopes they’d be able to play. Wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) is out as well. With that many players out, running back/wide receiver Lynn Bowden Jr. jumps

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to be the starting quarterback in Philly for the rest of the 2020 season. Hurts is a dual-threat player who made a major impact on the ground in his first NFL start, rushing for 106 yards. His presence helps negate some of the offensive line issues that had hurt Carson Wentz. This doesn’t mean Hurts will be
