Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst (ankle) is set for a Week 13 rematch with the Saints. Hurst had a ‘DNP’ on Thursday, though that was likely maintenance by the team, considering he returned to practice in a limited fashion on Friday. Hurst was held without a catch in his first meeting with the Saints this year, though the offense looked out of sorts without

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (knee) is questionable for Week 13 against the Lions after not appearing on the injury report until Friday. Quarterback Nick Foles (hip) and defensive tackle Akiem Hicks (Achilles, hamstring) are also questionable. Robinson was limited in practice on Friday, so he appears to be on the right track to play. Despite playing in a bad Bears offense, he

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor will make his return to the lineup this week against the Texans after missing last week’s game due to COVID-19. Taylor has a favorable matchup against a terrible Texans run defense. They have surrendered the second-most rushing yards per game and a league-worst 4.9 yards per carry. Taylor saw a solid workload in his last performance with 22 carries

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (foot) has been limited in practice this week. However, he should play and be started in fantasy lineups in Week 13 against the New York Giants after he made his return to the field in Week 12. Carson has been one of the NFL’s best running backs this season when he’s been healthy. He is eighth in the NFL

Miami Dolphins running backs Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) and DeAndre Washington (hamstring) are doubtful to play in Week 13 against the Bengals. Head coach Brian Flores said that running back Myles Gaskin (knee) could come off Injured Reserve to play on Sunday. Matt Breida is also out after being placed on the COVID-19 list, so Patrick Laird is the only truly healthy running back on the

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) and running back Todd Gurley II (knee) are both questionable for Sunday’s contest against New Orleans. Both players were limited Friday after sitting out on Thursday, giving them a good chance to suit up. It’s also worth noting that both Jones and Gurley weren’t able to practice last Friday before ultimately being ruled out, meaning there’s some optimism

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores didn’t reveal who the starting quarterback would be on Friday for Week 13 against the Bengals, and rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) is officially listed as questionable after being limited in practice. The Dolphins will likely make a final decision on the starting job on Sunday morning. However, Tagovailoa didn’t seem confident in his throwing thumb earlier this week

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (foot) and wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) are both good to go for Sunday’s game against the Falcons. Both players were full participants in Friday’s practice after the Saints held them back on Wednesday and Thursday for maintenance reasons. Kamara had previously hauled in at least five receptions in eight of 11 contests this year, though the presence

The Baltimore Ravens activated rookie running back J.K. Dobbins, linebacker Pernell McPhee and centers Patrick Mekari and Matt Skura from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday while placing quarterback Robert Griffin III (hamstring) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Cornerback Anthony Averett and wide receiver Chris Moore were also activated from IR. Dobbins missed Week 12 but should return as the lead back in Week

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers has a favorable matchup against the Texans in Week 13. The Texans have been bad against the pass all season, ranking 28th against opposing quarterbacks. They have allowed a passer rating of 105.4, which is second-worst in the league. Quarterbacks have thrown 20 touchdowns to just three interceptions against the Texans Defense. Rivers has played fairly well over the last

The Miami Dolphins placed running back Matt Breida on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. It’s unclear if Breida tested positive for the virus or was just deemed a high-risk close contact to another individual who did. Either way, he’ll be unavailable for Week 13’s contest against the Bengals. It likely didn’t matter for fantasy purposes, as one of Salvon Ahmed or Myles Gaskin, and potentially

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said that running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) and safety Johnathan Abram (knee) have been ruled out for Week 13 against the Jets. It’s a shame for those that roster Jacobs, as he was in line for a nice bounce-back game against the winless Jets after suffering an ankle injury last week and disappointing. If you roster Jacobs or

The Denver Broncos Defense surprisingly ranks 10th in the NFL through 12 weeks of the 2020 season, but they just placed cornerback Bryce Callahan on Injured Reserve and have been extremely vulnerable on the ground in recent weeks. Going up against the No. 1 overall offense (first in passing, 19th rushing) and dynamic Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will certainly give them problems on Sunday night.

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus should not be on the fantasy radar for those streaming kickers in Week 13. The strong-legged kicker hasn’t missed a kick since shanking an extra point in Week 7 against the Chiefs, but he also hasn’t had more than two field-goal attempts in a single contest since back-to-back games in Weeks 4 and 6. He’ll face Kansas City again on

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant carries the distinction of being the only player to catch a pass in the Week 12 blowout loss to the Saints. We’d be pretty surprised if Fant doesn’t improve on that number in a Week 13 meeting with the division-rival Chiefs on Sunday night. Kansas City’s defense has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends in

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler will be a nice weapon out of the slot for the Broncos in the future, but he’s just not seeing enough consistent targets in his rookie season to be a realistic receiver to roster in single-year formats. Hamler had 26 targets in a three-game span from Weeks 9-11, but he wasn’t targeted at all in Denver’s Week 12

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick and the entire offense was non-existent in the Week 12 blowout loss to the Saints with practice-squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton under center. Patrick and Denver’s passing game will rebound against the division-rival Chiefs in Week 13 with quarterback Drew Lock back, but how much? The 27-year-old has three 100-yard games this year and has been the Broncos most

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III was a disappointment yet again in Week 12 against the Saints, logging 12 carries for only 31 yards and not catching a pass for the third straight game. Gordon’s fantasy value in Week 13 against the division-rival Chiefs will depend on whether Phillip Lindsay (knee) is active. He has seen 20-plus touches in two of the three games

The New York Giants are listing quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) as doubtful to face the Seahawks in Week 13. Jones hasn’t practiced all week and was unlikely to play in this one after tweaking his hammy in the Week 12 win over the Bengals. The good news is that it’s a minor injury that should allow the 23-year-old to return in Week 14 against the

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock was inactive in the Week 12 blowout loss to the Saints after being deemed a high-risk close contact of Jeff Driskel, who tested positive for COVID-19. But he was activated on Wednesday and has returned to practice, signaling that he’ll be back under center against the division-rival Chiefs in Week 13. The Broncos will likely be trailing at some point
