Pats Defense A Deep-League Option Versus The Bengals

The New England Patriots defense/special teams have been one of the top fantasy defenses over the last six weeks.

Kendrick Bourne Not On The Fantasy Radar In Week 16

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has caught 24 passes for 273 yards and has yet to find the end zone over 13 games in 2022.

Houston Texans wide receiver Chris Moore (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Thursday's injury report will indicate if Moore suits up against the Titans on Saturday.
