Buccaneers RBs Bucky Irving, Rachaad White and Sean Tucker along with QB Baker Mayfield all scored a rushing TD against the Giants. Irving ended with 12 carries for 87 yards and caught all six of his targets for 64 yards. White ran the ball 12 times for 37 yards as well as catching his lone target for 10 yards. Tucker scored the first TD of the day with four carries for three yards.
Giants QB Tommy DeVito completed 21 of 31 passes for 189 yards and no TDs. He also ran seven times for 32 yards. The Buccaneers defense was able to get pressure and DeVito was not accurate enough to overcome. WR Malik Nabers led the team with nine targets, but only caught six for 64 yards.
Colts WR Josh Downs suffered a right shoulder injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Lions. He's officially questionable to return. We'll update Downs' status when we know more.
Update: Downs returned on the Colts' next possession.
Lions RB David Montgomery is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Colts with a shoulder injury. Prior to the injury, Montgomery tallied 37 yards and 1 TD on 8 carries.
Seahawks TE Noah Fant (groin) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. That should mean another full-time role for TE A.J. Barner, who’s a viable replacement if you were hoping to use Fant today.
Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) are inactive for today’s game vs. the Broncos. That leaves the backfield to Ameer Abdullah, Dylan Laube, and Sincere McCormick. HC Antonio Pierce said Friday that Abdullah will start, but it’s entirely unclear how touches will be divvied beyond that. Abdullah sits highest among Raiders RBs in the Week 12 Rankings, but you should try to avoid the situation in fantasy lineups.
Panthers TE Ja'Tavion Sanders was carted off in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs with a head and/or neck injury. He landed on his head after making a catch near the sidelines. Sanders was moving on his way off the field. We'll update his status when we know more.
Colts WR Michael Pittman is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Lions with a shoulder injury. It's a new injury for Pittman, who's been playing through a bad back and also suffered a finger injury earlier this season. We'll update his status when we know more. His absence should mean more snaps for WR A.D. Mitchell.
Update: Pittman returned to the game.
Commanders RB Brian Robinson injured his right leg on his first carry of Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. He got rolled up on badly but was able to hobble off the field under his own power. We'll update his status when we learn more.
Update: Robinson is officially questionable to return with an ankle injury.
Update: Robinson returned on Washington's next possession.
Update: Robinson was deemed questionable to return at halftime.
Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard is expected to get the "bulk of the carries" vs. the Chiefs today, according to ESPN's David Newton. "There are packages -- particularly third-down" for RB Jonathon Brooks, Newton adds. This is how we've been projecting it all week. Despite the tough matchup, Hubbard can stay in fantasy lineups as a volume-based RB2. Brooks is not a recommended fantasy play.
Panthers K Eddy Pineiro (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He checks in dead last in the Week 12 K Rankings.
Panthers RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said this morning that Brooks won’t be on a snap count in his long-awaited NFL debut, but we’re still expecting him to play minimally behind RB Chuba Hubbard.
Panthers WR Adam Thielen (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. Thielen could immediately re-emerge as QB Bryce Young’s top target, but we’d try to avoid him in fantasy lineups in his first action since Week 3. WR Jalen Coker (quad) is inactive.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Buccaneers. There have been no reports about his snaps being limited. The groin and QB Tommy DeVito add risk to his Week 12 fantasy profile. But Nabers would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against Tampa Bay’s 29th-ranked WR defense.
Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (hamstring) is active for today’s game vs. the Giants. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler said Saturday that Tampa Bay would monitor Evans’ snaps in his first action since Week 7, but NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said this morning that Evans will play “without any restrictions.” There’s some uncertainty here, but Evans would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against a leaky Giants secondary.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He was a full-go in Friday’s practice, so the groin shouldn’t be a major factor. But Minnesota ranks second in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs, and Swift lost most passing-down and goal-line work to RB Roschon Johnson last week. It leaves him as a low-end RB2 play this week, even with six teams on bye.
Bears WR Keenan Allen (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Vikings. He was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Friday with what he called ankle stiffness. That adds some risk to a guy who was already an unexciting fantasy start.
ESPN's Adam Schefter writes that 49ers QB Brock Purdy (shoulder) "should" be able to play against the Bills next Sunday night. "Then again, they also thought he would be able to start today at Green Bay before he couldn’t," Schefter adds. "Still, for the time being, there does not seem to be a high level of concern." This seems like a situation where the team truly doesn't know how Purdy's injured right shoulder will progress. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout next week.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (groin) is expected to play vs. the Bucs today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Nabers did not practice on Friday and is listed as questionable. He's reportedly been dealing with this groin issue since college, though, and was confident on Friday that he'd be able to play in this one. We'll look for further updates on his status. But, at this point, Nabers would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against Tampa Bay's 29th-ranked WR defense.
The Bears are "confident" RB D'Andre Swift (groin) will be able to play vs. the Vikings today, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says. Swift progressed from no practice on Wednesday to limited practice on Thursday to full participation on Friday, so we're not expecting the groin to be a major issue today. But the matchup against Minnesota's second-ranked RB defense -- plus the threat of Roschon Johnson -- leaves Swift as a fringe RB2 play today.
