Packers WR Christian Watson (knee) is "unlikely" to play vs. the Vikings today, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Watson is listed as questionable but didn't practice all week. He should be on fantasy benches. Watson's absence would leave Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and Dontayvion Wicks as Green Bay's clear top three WRs.
Panthers WR Xavier Legette (hip, wrist) is expected to play vs. the Buccaneers today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Legette went from a full practice on Wednesday to limited workouts on Thursday and Friday. The hip issue adds a bit of risk to Legette's Week 17 fantasy profile, but there's some upside here in what figures to be a pass-heavy game from Carolina.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport calls Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) "unlikely" to play vs. the Browns this afternoon. Waddle is listed as questionable after returning to limited practices on Thursday and Friday. He wouldn't have been a recommended fantasy play with QB Tyler Huntley anyway. Rookie Malik Washington should again operate as Miami's No. 2 WR today but isn't a viable fantasy option in any format.
In his first game since Week 12, Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins posted 76 yards and 1 TD on 19 attempts. With Gus Edwards sidelined, Dobbins led the team in snaps (42) and routes (17).
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist) is expected to play vs. the Browns this afternoon, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Hill has been battling this wrist issue for much of the season. The bigger issue today is QB Tua Tagovailoa's absence. QB Tyler Huntley is expected to draw the start for Miami. The Dolphins passed on just 43.6% of their offensive snaps in Huntley's three starts earlier this season. Hill came away from those games with 4-23-0, 6-69-0, and 1-8-0 receiving lines.
Giants WR Malik Nabers is expected to play despite being listed as Questionable with a toe injury according to Adam Schefter of ESPN
Despite being listed as Questionable with a hip injury, Jets WR Davanate Adams is expected to play against the Bills according to Adam Schefter of ESPN
49ers RB Isaac Guerendo (foot, hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 17 injury report. He was a full participant in Saturday's practice and seems ready to take back over as San Francisco's clear lead back in Monday night's game vs. the Lions. Guerendo checks in 17th in the Week 17 RB Rankings.
Saints WR Chris Olave (concussion) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. He was a full participant in practice all week, so we'll see if he makes it back for the regular-season finale vs. the Bucs next weekend.
Bengals RB Chase Brown sprained his ankle late in the fourth quarter for the Bengals game against the Broncos. Brown was attempting to slide short of the goal line and landed awkwardly when two Broncos made contact.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins caught 11 of 12 targets for 131 yards and THREE TDs. Fantasy managers were rewarded if they stuck with Higgins despite his Questionable tag. He faces potential pending free agency this offseason.
Cardinals RB James Conner (knee) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Rams. RB Trey Benson (ankle) is inactive, leaving RBs Michael Carter and DeeJay Dallas behind Conner. Conner was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable after hurting his knee six days ago. He won’t be at 100% tonight and could have his touches scaled back with the Cardinals eliminated from postseason contention. Check your Team Intel page to see if Conner belongs in your starting lineup.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Broncos. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, so there’s elevated risk here. But there have been no reports about his snaps being limited today. Higgins still checks in 14th in the Week 17 WR Rankings.
Colts QB Anthony Richardson has been downgraded to Out after not practicing all week with back and foot soreness. QB Joe Flacco gets the start which is an upgrade for the Colts pass catchers.
Titans RB Tony Pollard is officially out with the flu and is not traveling with the team to Jacksonville for Sunday’s game. This places Tyjae Spears as the lead back for the gam
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa has been downgraded to Doubtful for Sundays game against the Browns. It is unlikely he will play putting QB Tyler Huntley in line to star
Chargers RB J.K. Dobbins (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s joined in the backfield by RBs Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins, with RB Gus Edwards (ankle) out. Dobbins has been sidelined since Week 12, so we’re not expecting workhorse usage today. But we are projecting him to lead this backfield, putting him on the RB3 radar.
Chargers TE Will Dissly (shoulder) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He’s been out since Week 14 but had been operating as Los Angeles’ lead TE, averaging 5.4 targets, 4.0 catches, and 39 yards over his last eight healthy games. We’re expecting Dissly to step back in as the starter today, but he’d be a shaky TE1 play in season-long leagues. TE Hayden Hurst (illness) is inactive.
The Panthers are placing RB Chuba Hubbard on season-ending IR with calf and knee injuries, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter (and other reports). It's a surprise move after Hubbard finished the practice week questionable. Carolina's left with not much in the backfield for Sunday's clash with the Buccaneers.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) is expected to play vs. the Broncos today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Higgins was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, so it's safe to assume he'll be operating at less than 100%. He also draws a tough Broncos secondary that's getting back CB Riley Moss for this one. It has Higgins sitting a bit lower than usual in the Week 17 WR Rankings, but he still belongs in the vast majority of fantasy lineups.
