Justin Jefferson Hampered By Offense In Week 12 Loss

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson finished Sunday with four catches on six targets for 48 receiving yards in a 23-6 loss at Green Bay.

Another Brutal Game For J.J. McCarthy

D.K. Metcalf Questionable to Return With Ankle Injury

The Pittsburgh Steelers said that wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears due to an ankle injury.

Falcons Could be Cautious With Drake London

The Atlanta Falcons could opt to be cautious with wide receiver Drake London (knee) in the weeks to come, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The former USC star is dealing with a PCL injury, which Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said would keep London on a week-to-week basis. If the Falcons lose to […]

Jordan Love Playing Through Shoulder Injury

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) is playing through a sprained AC joint injury, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Luckily for Love and the Packers, the injury is to his left (non-throwing) shoulder. Had the injury been to Love's right shoulder, Rapoport noted that the quarterback would not have been able to […]

Struggling J.J. McCarthy Looks To Break Slump In Week 12

Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy should be considered a volatile Superflex option when his team goes to Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers in Week 12. The former Michigan star's overall numbers are not pretty -- he's completed only 53% of his passing attempts and thrown eight interceptions in five games -- […]

Aaron Jones Sr. Should Have Decent Role in Week 12

The Minnesota Vikings have been among the most unpredictable teams in the league this season, but running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) is off the injury report and set to get the majority of backfield work against the Green Bay Packers in Week 12. The former Green Bay draft pick is earning regular work in […]

Reduced Workload, Offensive Struggles Lower Jordan Mason's Ceiling

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason should be left out of starting lineups in standard formats when his team travels to Green Bay in Week 12. Mason scored a touchdown in last week's loss to the Chicago Bears, but has seen his workload lessened since Aaron Jones Sr. returned from injured reserve. With Jones fully […]

Breakout Possible For Justin Jefferson In Week 12?

The Minnesota Vikings are going through a rough patch right now, but Justin Jefferson remains a WR1 candidate when the team travels to Green Bay in Week 12. The Vikings are averaging just 58 plays during their past three games with quarterback J.J. McCarthy, during which the offense has been a mess of drops, penalties, […]

High-Risk, High-Reward Setting For Jordan Addison In Week 12

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison has fit the bill as a boom-or-bust WR3 this season, which should continue when Minnesota travels to Green Bay in Week 12. The third-year receiver has seen more famine than feast of late, which includes four straight weeks outside of the top 30 PPR receivers. Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy […]

Jalen Nailor Faces Difficult Circumstances At Green Bay

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor should be avoided in most formats when his struggling offense goes on the road to play Green Bay in Week 12. The Vikings have counted on Nailor in big spots -- like a game-clinching catch at Detroit and a fourth-quarter touchdown against Baltimore -- but his overall volume, 3.7 […]

T.J. Hockenson Not a Strong Consideration Against Green Bay

Fantasy managers should not put much stock into tight end T.J. Hockenson when the Minnesota Vikings take on the Green Bay Packers in Week 12. The veteran has yet to reach 50 yards receiving in a game this season and is averaging just more than two catches per outing during the past month. Minnesota has […]

Will Reichard Outside Starting Range In Week 12

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard should be regarded as a No. 2 kicker option in Week 12, which should keep him off the starting radar in most formats. The former Alabama standout has put together an excellent second season in Minnesota by making 19 of 21 field goal attempts and all 19 extra points, but […]

Vikings D/ST Too Risky to Play at Packers

While the overall numbers for the Minnesota Vikings' defense remain solid, they should be left out of starting lineups in Week 12 when they face the Green Bay Packers.

Dawson Knox Outside Starting Range In Week 12

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox should not be relied upon in most formats when his team takes on the Houston Texans in Week 12, even with fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) ruled out for the game.

Tough Matchup Dampers Outlook For Tyrell Shavers

Coming off the best game of his career, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Tyrell Shavers should be left on the bench in most formats when his team takes on the Houston Texans on Thursday.

Joshua Palmer Avoidable In Thursday Clash With Houston

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer can safely be left out of lineups in most formats when his team travels to Houston to play the Texans for Week 12's Thursday Night Football game.

Khalil Shakir a Shaky Thursday Night Fantasy Play?

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir (personal) enters a Week 12 matchup against the Houston Texans in unknown territory after missing practice on both Monday and Tuesday for personal reasons. Assuming Shakir plays, he's a low-end WR3 option against Houston, the top-ranked defense against PPR wide receivers. The veteran is also coming off his worst […]

Bengals Haven't Ruled Out Joe Burrow for Week 12

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said Thursday morning that the club has not yet ruled out quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) from playing on Sunday against the New England Patriots, according to Paul Dehner of The Athletic.

Vikings Continue To Play Long Game With J.J. McCarthy

The Minnesota Vikings are now 4-6 behind struggling young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, but the team is betting that McCarthy can overcome his current issues and acclimate to the NFL with time.

Jordan Addison Shoulders Blame for Passing-Game Struggles

While Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy has had his share of struggles as he adapts to the NFL, wide receiver Jordan Addison accepted blame for Minnesota's issues in the passing game last week.

Justin Jefferson Says Turnaround Starts With Him

The Minnesota Vikings have been among the NFL's more disappointing teams in 2025, and superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson said getting back to winning again begins with him.

More Work For Dallas Turner In Future Weeks?

In one of the few bright spots from a frustrating loss to Chicago in Week 11, the Minnesota Vikings saw a career-best day from edge rusher Dallas Turner, a first-round draft pick in 2024. Turner tied a career-high with five pressures, and also recorded a sack, an additional tackle for loss, seven tackles overall, and […]

Bryce Young Back in Game After Ankle Injury

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young (ankle) departed and then returned to Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons after being stepped on, according to David Newton of ESPN. The former No. 1 overall pick missed a game earlier this year with an ankle injury, but was given the all-clear to return against Atlanta. Young has had […]

Jordan Love Departs Sunday's Game At Giants With Left-Shoulder Issue

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) departed Sunday's game at the New York Giants with an injury to his non-throwing shoulder.

Calvin Ridley Carted to Locker Room With Ankle Injury

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) was carted to the locker room Sunday against the Houston Texans and is questionable to return to the game, according to John Glennon of the Nashville Post.

Marcus Mariota Throws One Touchdown in Overtime Loss

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota finished Sunday with 213 yards passing, 49 yards rushing, one touchdown pass, and an interception in an overtime loss against Miami. Filling in for starter Jayden Daniels (elbow), the veteran was solid if unspectacular by completing 20 of 30 passing attempts and breaking a 44-yard run that accounted for most […]

Big Day for De'Von Achane in Madrid

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane put together an excellent fantasy day in his team's overtime victory against the Washington Commanders by compiling 165 total yards on 26 touches. Though he didn't score, Achane caught all five targets for 45 yards and ended the day with 120 rushing yards from 21 carries. As Miami's best […]
