Award-Winning Fantasy Football Advice

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield (shoulder) "has a real chance" to play vs. the Cardinals this weekend, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Monday's MRI revealed a "low-grade" AC joint sprain in his left shoulder, per Rapoport. We'll track Mayfield's progress throughout the week. QB Teddy Bridgewater would be a big downgrade for the offense if Mayfield is unable to play.

Raiders HC Pete Carroll called RB Ashton Jeanty's ankle injury a "tweak" and "not severe" on Monday. "It sounds like there’s a chance that he would be okay," Carroll added. We'll start the week projecting Jeanty to play vs. the Chargers but keep a close eye on his practice participation.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin (quad) was on the field for Monday's post-bye-week practice and seemingly has a shot to return for Sunday night's game vs. the Broncos. "I’ll have a better answer later," HC Dan Quinn said when asked about McLaurin's Week 13 status. "I will say that I’m excited about the possibilities, because of his speed and how he’s moving. Those are big steps." We'll keep you updated on McLaurin's status throughout the week. If he does play on Sunday, he'd be no better than a WR3 against Denver's second-ranked WR defense.

The Bears quietly placed LB Tremaine Edmunds on IR over the weekend, ahead of Sunday's win over the Steelers. That means Edmunds' groin injury will cost him at least three more games.

Bengals HC Zac Taylor said Monday that Edge Trey Hendrickson will miss Thursday's game against the Ravens. It'll be his fourth straight game lost to a hip injury. Even the game before that found Hendrickson trying to play through the issue but leaving early. Cincinnati has managed just four total sacks without Hendrickson over the past three contests and finished five of the past six games with one sack or fewer.

Dallas' offense started sluggishly in Sunday's win over the Eagles, failing to cross the 50-yard line until its third possession and fumbling that one away. Philadelphia jumped to a 21-0 lead before the middle of the second quarter, and QB Dak Prescott followed that third enemy score by throwing an INT into the end zone. But he rebounded big time from there to rack up 354 yards, 2 TDs and a rushing score. The game finished with his second-best fantasy score of the season and the third-best among QBs for the week (with Monday night's game left to go). Prescott now ranks among the top 5 per-game scorers at the position for the season (depending on your format).

Rams RB Kyren Williams watched his offense gain 333 net yards and tally 34 points in a home win over Tampa Bay. The 25-year-old wasn’t a main contributor, though, mustering only 46 yards on 12 attempts. He caught one pass for 2 yards.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) will return to practice this week but is considered a "long shot" to play vs. the Broncos on Sunday night, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It looks like Daniels will get medical clearance to play before the end of the season, but it's still uncertain whether the 3-8 Commanders will throw him back out there. We'll keep you updated on Daniels' status. QB Marcus Mariota is in line to start against Denver this weekend but will only be in play in 2-QB and Superflex leagues.

Jaguars RB Travis Etienne led the backfield with 86 yards on 15 attempts in Sunday’s win over Arizona. He added 3 catches for 30 yards and his first receiving score since Week 2.
