Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) was able to practice on a limited basis for the second day in a row on Thursday. It sounds like things are trending in the right direction for Parker. Hopefully he’ll be able to suit up against the New England Patriots in Week 15. Both Mike Gesicki (shoulder) and Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) are listed as questionable heading

Miami Dolphins running back DeAndre Washington was given lead back duties last week versus the Kansas City Chiefs. He rushed 13 times for 35 yards and caught two passes for 17 yards through the air. Washington was used as the lead back since Miami really didn’t have an other options for this game. Luckily, Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) is trending towards playing in the Week 15

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) was able to practice on a limited basis for the second day in a row on Thursday. He has missed three games straight due to injury, but might be able to suit up for the Week 15 matchup against the New England Patriots. He’d be an interesting fantasy option, assuming he’s cleared to play in this one. Ahmed

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa surpassed the 300-yard mark in a single game for the first time in his career last week. He looked fairly comfortable passing against a surprisingly decent pass defense in the Kansas City Chiefs. Sadly, Tagovailoa won’t have great fantasy appeal heading into his Week 15 matchup with the New England Patriots. A defense that has allowed the third-fewest amount of

New England Patriots wide receiver Damiere Byrd has surprisingly seen 67 targets this season heading into the Week 15 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. He wasn’t expected to be a huge part of the offense coming into the season, but has performed well when called upon. Sadly, Byrd is not the most appealing fantasy option right now. He usually gets plenty of targets, but has

New England Patriots wide receiver N’Keal Harry has not put up the sophomore campaign that many fantasy managers were hopeful he would coming into the season. Last week, Harry hauled in three of his four targets for 49 yards in the loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Those 49 yards were the most that Harry has finished with in a game since Week 2. That

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson faces the Colts in a Week 15 divisional battle. Watson has cooled off ever-so-slightly as a passer, with just one passing touchdown in his last two games after tossing seven in the three contests prior. However, he’ll have a chance for a bounce-back performance against a Colts’ secondary that has surrendered the third-most passing yards over the last four weeks,

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have put Ryan Succop on the COVID list and the kicker’s status for Week 15 remains in question. If he cannot go, Greg Joseph from the practice squad will take the role of the kicker. Joseph has played two seasons in the NFL with the Browns and Titans and has gone 17-for-20 in field-goal attempts along with 34-for-38 in extra-point tries.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense is only a low-end starting option this week. The unit has allowed at least 20 points in six of the past seven games and now faces a team with a capable QB in Matt Ryan and playmakers such as Calvin Ridley and Russell Gage. Based on this, it’s best to look elsewhere for defenses this week. Source: NFL.com

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (neck) was a limited participant in Thursday’s practice ahead of a Week 15 divisional contest with the Colts. Interim head coach Romeo Crennel stated earlier in the week that he thought Cooks could return in Week 15 provided he could get through the practice week- that appears to be happening. As long as he can remain at least limited

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski is a TE1 this week. Though he has been anything but consistent this season, the TE has had games where he looked his New England version. Though he only had one reception for two yards and a score on two targets last week, Gronk did have six receptions for 106 yards on seven targets the game prior. Though

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown is a flex option for Week 15. In five games played with Tampa this season, the WR has seen at least five targets in four of those games and at least 49 yards in three of those games. Overall, Brown will have to compete with Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Rob Gronkowski for targets each week and his

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin is a WR2 this week against Atlanta. Godwin had a bad performance by his standards last week, finishing with two receptions for 25 yards on three targets. Nevertheless, in the three games prior to that, the WR had at least six targets and 53 yards. Godwin’s role on this offense is large, so managers can only hope last

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is a WR2 for the Week 15 clash against the Falcons. Despite showing some inconsistency at the beginning of the year, Evans has recently been producing great numbers in a consistent fashion. In the past four games, the WR has seen at least five targets and 49 yards along with getting four total touchdowns. The Falcons allow the

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) was held out of practice Thursday. Thomas was absent at practice for the second straight day, a marked difference from his normal practice routine of the past couple of weeks. As of right now, the All-Pro wideout should be considered genuinely questionable for the big contest against the Chiefs, though at least a limited session on Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette is in the starting mix this week with Ronald Jones II (finger) ruled out of the contest. Fournette last played in Week 12 where he had three carries for 10 yards and three receptions for 10 yards on three targets. Because Jones is the primary back, Fournette hasn’t received as many carries this season. This week, the RB

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is a low-end QB1 for this week’s matchup against the Falcons. Brady has had varied numbers recently, including two games with over 300 yards in the past four total. The QB has thrown 10 touchdowns to four picks in the last four games as well. The Falcons do allow the most fantasy points to QBs, so this is a

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (illness) practiced in full the last two days and was taken off the final injury report for Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday. Fant left the game last weekend with a non-COVID-19-related illness and never returned, saddling his fantasy managers with a big fat zero. In his absence, Nick Vannett and Troy Fumagalli combined for eight catches for

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler had his best game of the season in the Week 14 win over the Panthers when he corralled two of his three targets for 86 yards and two touchdowns. Now that’s efficiency. But with just three targets in that game and eight in the last two games, we can’t expect Hamler to go bonkers like that again, especially

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has shown glimpses of his true potential in his first NFL season, but those glimpses have been few and far between lately. He’s dealt with some injuries and has played through them, but perhaps they’ve slowed him down recently. Quarterback Drew Lock hasn’t helped at all, as Jeudy has caught only 46.5 percent of his targets — 40
