The Miami Dolphins turned to veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick to help them beat the Jets on Sunday due to the thumb injury sustained by Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) earlier in the week. After Fitzpatrick was removed from the starting gig earlier this year, and in light of his strong performance Sunday, head coach Brian Flores was asked whether he had reconsidered who would be the team’s

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill finished Week 12 by going 9-for-16 for 78 yards and a pick along with 10 carries for 44 yards and two rushing touchdowns. Hill once again had two rushing touchdowns, and his value this week relied more on that. The QB is certainly a dual-threat and while it’s likely Hill won’t have huge numbers in the passing game each

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green was able to haul in his first touchdown of the year last week versus Washington, but his production against the Giants on Sunday was the drastic opposite. Green figured to see his numbers take a downturn in wake of the injury to Joe Burrow (knee), which has paved the way for Brandon Allen to take over at QB, but

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had little difficulty dealing with the New York Jets Defense in Week 12. He completed 24 of 39 passing attempts for 257 yards and two touchdowns in the win. Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) is expected to miss multiple weeks, so Fitzpatrick could be the starter going forward. The Dolphins offense has looked solid when Fitzpatrick is under center. He’ll be an

New Orleans Saints cornerback Janoris Jenkins (knee) left Sunday’s contest versus Denver shortly before halftime due to a knee injury before eventually being marked questionable to return. He never did make it back to the field, but it appears that he has avoided a serious knee injury, with Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.football reporting that Jenkins will be “fine.” Jenkins logged one pass defended before his

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been in a slump over the last few weeks. He started off red-hot, but can’t seem to produce anymore. He finished with three receptions on five targets for 31 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins. The return of Sam Darnold didn’t make much of an impact on Crowder’s performance. Crowder has pushed himself into possible

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard was held in check by the Giants on Sunday, rushing for 32 yards on just eight carries. Even with third-string quarterback Brandon Allen making the start, Bernard received just ten touches (having added two receptions) as Cincinnati struggled to produce on offense. With Joe Mixon (foot) on injured reserve and potentially done for the season, Bernard should be in

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims has been one of the few bright spots for this winless team. He has recorded five straight games with 40 receiving yards or more, but sadly the Jets continue to lose. He hauled in four of his eight targets for 67 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 12. The second-round rookie has looked good

The Raiders defense had a rough day against the Falcons, allowing 36 offensive points. The Falcons scored 43 total points, but seven of those came via an interception that was returned for a touchdown. They had one interception and one sack, but that was the only bright spot of their day. They were not helped by their offense that had five turnovers on the day,

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman was expected to see a decreased role, but that not was not the case in this one. He hauled in four of his eight targets for 79 yards in the Week 12 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He tied with Denzel Mims with a team-high eight targets, so clearly the Jets want to get him involved. Sadly, Perriman

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski hauled in six of seven targets for a season-high 106 yards against the Chiefs. He looked like vintage Gronkowski out there, as he and Tom Brady connected on a few big plays down the field, including a 48-yard, catch-and-run play. There probably won’t be many weeks where the veteran tight end leads his team in receiving yards, particularly

New York Jets running back Frank Gore had the backfield all to himself during the Week 12 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The veteran back rushed 18 times for 74 yards in the loss. He also hauled in three receptions for 12 yards through the air. The 74 yards were a season high for Gore, but fantasy owners shouldn’t get too excited. It’s unlikely that

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller had a disappointing day as did the rest of the team, catching just four passes on seven targets for 27 yards. His seven targets was second-most on the team, but it did not amount to a performance that fantasy owners would like to see out of one of the top tight ends in football. With that being said,

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown had a quiet game in a Week 12 loss against Kansas City. Brown caught two of three targets for 11 receiving yards, as he took a backseat to fellow wideouts, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. The former All-Pro receiver was involved in the game plan up to this point, which makes this effort a bit puzzling. Still, it’s

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold continued his cold streak versus the Miami Dolphins in Week 12. He completed 16 of 27 passing attempts for 197 yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss. It was the fourth straight game that Darnold has finished without a touchdown pass. To be fair, he was playing against one of the best defenses in the league

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin caught a team-high eight of nine targets for 97 receiving yards in a loss to the Chiefs. Aside from a big, 44-yard catch, Godwin continued to operate as Tom Brady‘s safety blanket over the middle of the field. Godwin’s shorter routes out of the slot seem suited to Brady’s game at this point, as the star wideout has

The 49ers Defense had one of their strongest efforts of the year so far in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams. They forced a total of four turnovers in the game. Rams quarterback Jared Goff threw two interceptions, including one that was returned for a defensive touchdown by Javon Kinlaw. Goff was sacked twice in the game and lost a fumble. The 49ers also

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Nelson Agholor had a decent performance in a 43-6 loss against the Falcons. He hauled in five passes on six targets for 54 yards. Agholor now has back-to-back games with at least five catches. He did not connect on a deep ball as he has done many times this year, but it was a fairly respectable performance. Agholor is still

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans hauled in three of nine targets for 50 yards and two scores in a loss to Kansas City. Evans was having a relatively quiet day- and then the fourth quarter happened, where he caught a beautiful, 31-yard deep ball from Tom Brady for his first score. He grabbed a seven-yard touchdown to bring the Buccaneers within three points.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Richie James Jr. reeled in his only target, a 29-yard reception, in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams. The 49ers weren’t able to do much through the air this week when any pass-catcher not named Deebo Samuel was involved. Samuel led the team with 11 catches for 133 yards while no other 49er had more than 35 receiving yards.
