Washington Wizards guard
Tre Johnson (hip) has been ruled out indefinitely after re-aggravating a lingering injury from his college days, and the team has yet to set a timetable for his return. Johnson averaged 11.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.2 blocks over his last five outings while shooting 50.0 percent from the field. The injury shift pushes more minutes to
Bub Carrington,
Corey Kispert, and
Bilal Coulibaly, giving Carrington some streaming appeal for assists and Kispert value for three-pointers.

Orlando Magic center
Goga Bitadze (ankle) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the 76ers after missing one game, putting him back into his usual role behind
Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle), who is also returning. Bitadze averaged 6.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steal, and 1.0 block across his last five appearances while shooting 77.8 percent from the field, giving him niche value in deeper formats. His return likely bumps
Orlando Robinson out of the rotation, and managers seeking field-goal percentage or defensive boosts can deploy Bitadze in specialist builds.

New York Giants running back
Devin Singletary held a meaningful role in the team's backfield over the past two weeks, but saw
Tyrone Tracy Jr. dominate the snaps and touches in Week 12's overtime loss to the Detroit Lions. Singletary still handled 14 carries for 47 yards, but played on just 29.9% of the snaps, his lowest in a game since
Cam Skattebo (ankle) got injured in Week 8. Notably, there was a shift in the goal-line work in Week 12. Singletary handled all 10 running back carries inside the 10-yard line in Weeks 9 through 11, but Tracy handled three of four carries in these spots in Week 12. Tracy seems to be separating himself as the clear lead back in New York, and he's performed well with his opportunities. However, Singletary remains involved with the Giants and is worth a waiver wire add this week in 12-team leagues. Plus, he would step into a workhorse role if Tracy were to miss any time.

November 25, 2025
Orlando Magic center
Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) is off the injury report for Tuesday's matchup in Philadelphia after missing the previous game, putting him back on track for starter-level minutes. He has delivered 11.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.8 blocks in 31.6 minutes across his last five outings while shooting 51.4 percent from the field. His return, along with
Goga Bitadze (ankle) also coming back from a one-game absence, should stabilize Orlando's center rotation and likely push
Orlando Robinson to the fringe or out of the mix entirely.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback
Brock Purdy (toe) went 23-for-32 for 193 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions in Monday's 20-9 win over the Carolina Panthers. He also had 16 rushing yards on six carries. Purdy struggled to connect with his receivers on intermediate and deep routes, completing just one of his eight attempts of 10 yards or more. All three of his interceptions came on shots 20 yards downfield or longer. In postgame comments, Purdy insisted his picks had nothing to do with the turf toe injury that has cost him eight games this season. The 49ers will travel to Cleveland in Week 13 to face the Browns, whose defense has allowed the third-fewest passing yards and owns the highest sack rate in the league. Purdy projects as a QB2 against that stout defense in what will be a cold-weather game.

November 25, 2025
Arizona Cardinals running back
Bam Knight has enjoyed an extended run as the team's lead back with
Trey Benson (knee) on injured reserve and
Emari Demercado (ankle) also missing time. Knight's fantasy appeal could come to an end with Benson's practice window opened last week, and him being listed as a limited participant every day in practice last week. Benson could be on track to return in Week 13 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but could be eased back into action after missing seven consecutive games. Knight could be in a timeshare with the second-year back in the short term before Benson is ready to take on a bigger workload. If Benson isn't ready to return just yet, Knight will rank as a touchdown-dependent RB3 for Week 13 against the Bucs.

November 25, 2025
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence was a bit chaotic in their Week 12 overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals, completing 18 of 30 passes for 256 yards, three touchdowns, three interceptions, and taking three sacks while also losing a fumble. He added five carries for 29 yards on the ground. The 26-year-old continues to be one of the most turnover-prone quarterbacks in the league, but he matched a season high with three passing touchdowns and continues to be active as a runner. He's had at least five carries in four straight games, totaling 24 rush attempts for 97 yards and three touchdowns. Over that span, his 24 carries are tied for the second most among quarterbacks, his 97 yards are tied for fourth, and his three rushing touchdowns are tied for the second-most. Lawrence is the QB6 in fantasy points in the last four games, and is on the map as a potential streamer for Week 13 at the Tennessee Titans.

November 25, 2025
Orlando Magic guard
Jalen Suggs (left knee, injury management) missed Sunday's game against the Celtics, but he'll be ready to go after not being listed on Tuesday's injury report when his Magic face the Sixers. Suggs has played 13 games this season, but the team continues to carefully monitor his workload. He has produced 14.4 points, 4.6 assists, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in 23.9 minutes per game, and he'll be back in the lineup for a potential showdown with
Tyrese Maxey (shoulder, probable) on Tuesday night.
--Zach ThompsonSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Atlanta Hawks guard
Luke Kennard (hip) is questionable for Tuesday's game in Washington after missing the prior contest, putting his short-term fantasy outlook in doubt. The former Duke standout has averaged 6.6 points, 1.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 2.4 steals, and 1.0 block in 17.8 minutes across his last five games. He's shooting 44.0 percent from the field and 47.4 percent from deep in that stretch, though his role has tightened during Atlanta's recent guard shuffle. If he sits again,
Vit Krejci and
Keaton Wallace should continue absorbing extra minutes, though both remain fringe options for deeper formats.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Philadelphia 76ers center
Adem Bona (ankle) will miss Tuesday's home game against Orlando. He has missed the last four games for the Sixers, leaving more time for
Andre Drummond,
Dominick Barlow, and
Trendon Watford at center.
Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable and could take some of the minutes in the middle as well if he's ready to return. It looks like Bona may have missed this window of opportunity to fill in for Embiid. In his 12 games this year, he's only averaged 2.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in 15 minutes per game.
--Zach ThompsonSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Cleveland Browns rookie tight end
Harold Fannin Jr. led the team with four catches (six targets) for 40 yards in a Week 12 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. After running just 48.5% of the team's routes in Week 11, his lowest in a game since Week 5, Fannin climbed back to 66.7% in Week 12 and paced the Cleveland passing attack in Shedeuer Sanders' first career start. The rookie tight end played a season-high 89.6% of snaps and continued to showcase his exceptional tackle-breaking ability, forcing 11 missed tackles in the game, which is the most by a tight end in a game this season. Fannin mostly operates in a short area of the field to let him generate yards after the catch, and Sanders looked for him as a checkdown frequently. The upside isn't super high for Fannin in a bad Cleveland offense, but he has been their most consistent pass catcher this season. He is worthy of a waiver add in 12-team leagues for fantasy managers looking for a tight end.
--Kyle McCarthySource: RotoBaller
November 25, 2025
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback
Teddy Bridgewater could be lined up for a start in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals this week, after an MRI revealed a low-grade AC joint sprain in
Baker Mayfield's left shoulder. While there is no concern of a long-term injury, Bridgewater could fill in for this week. He completed 8-of-15 pass attempts for 62 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions after coming in against the Rams. Coach Todd Bowles said the team would tweak the offense if Bridgewater starts, saying, "Schematically, we'll have to do some different things for him to make him feel comfortable within the offense and do a lot of things he likes to do." Bridgewater has never started for the Bucs, with his last start coming in 2022 with the Dolphins, and Mayfield has never missed a game for the Bucs, starting all 45 games since joining the team in 2023. It's hard to say exactly what tweaks will be made, but it's worth considering for all the Buccaneers' offensive skill players that things could look different this week without Baker under center.

November 25, 2025
Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Jacoby Brissett continues to put up solid numbers on a weekly basis, and he can be a solid option in deep leagues or two-quarterback formats. The veteran has thrown for over 250 yards in each of his six starts, while totaling 11 touchdowns and just three interceptions. Last week, he threw for 317 yards and a touchdown in the team's loss to the Jaguars while adding 20 rushing yards. He has been given a huge volume of pass attempts with a limited run game and a defense that typically leaves him playing from behind. He's put together impressive numbers, and he will get at least one more start this week against the Buccaneers before
Kyler Murray (foot) is eligible to return from IR. Given how productive he has been, the Cards may opt to stick with Brissett, depending on their direction for the future beyond this season. For fantasy purposes, Brissett can be a solid option this week against the Bucs, but a Week 14 matchup with the Rams would be tough even if he gets another start.
--Zach ThompsonSource: ESPN
November 25, 2025
Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback
Cameron Ward delivered one of his most promising games in a tough Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, completing 28 of 42 passes for 256 yards and a touchdown to go with six carries for 37 yards and a score on the ground in a 30-24 loss. It was easily Ward's best game from a fantasy perspective, scoring 25.94 points, with his next closest being 15.06 in Week 11 against the Texans. The first overall pick in this past year's draft has gone through a gauntlet of a schedule, but he is showing encouraging signs of development in a tough offensive ecosystem in Tennessee. Ward rushed for a season high and scored the first rushing touchdown of his career, which could be a valuable piece of his fantasy scoring profile moving forward. Ward is an interesting waiver addition in deeper leagues ahead of Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
--Kyle McCarthySource: RotoBaller
November 25, 2025
Washington Wizards forward/center
Marvin Bagley III (hip) is questionable for Tuesday against Atlanta after missing the past two games. Before the injury, he averaged 9.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.0 block in 18.5 minutes across his last five outings. His absence has pushed more frontcourt work to second-year big
Alexandre Sarr, who posted 16 points and 11 rebounds in his last game, while
Tristan Vukcevic added 12 points and eight boards in 20 minutes. Sarr holds steady value, and Vukcevic remains a deeper-league streaming option until Bagley returns.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Denver Broncos wide receiver
Troy Franklin is having a breakout season in his second year out of Oregon. He leads the team with 81 targets and 46 catches on his way to 509 yards and a team-high five receiving touchdowns. The 9-2 Broncos come out of their bye week with a Sunday Night Football matchup against the Commanders in Week 13, and then they face the Raicers in Week 14. Both of those teams have been top-five matchups for receivers, making Franklin a great scoop and start option if you need to add a WR3 or flex play from the waiver wires. His great matchup against the Raiders in Week 14 also makes him a strong option if you have starting receivers who are part of the last round of bye weeks and can use him as a ready replacement.
--Zach ThompsonSource: RotoBaller
November 25, 2025
Chicago Bears rookie tight end
Colston Loveland has emerged as a big piece of the offense over the last few weeks and had another positive performance in Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, recording four catches for 49 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Loveland is operating in close to a full-time role, playing at least 60% of the snaps in six straight games and totaling 23 receptions (29 targets) for 324 yards and three touchdowns. He has the third most PPR points in that span (73.4), only behind
George Kittle and
Trey McBride. The 10th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft is a dynamic receiving option and a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses at the tight end position. His role should only continue to expand in an explosive Bears offense. Loveland will rank as a borderline TE1 for Black Friday's matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
--Kyle McCarthySource: RotoBaller
November 25, 2025
Washington Wizards guard/forward
Kyshawn George (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup with Atlanta after posting 17 points, 12 rebounds, and seven assists with four steals in his last outing. He has averaged 18.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 6.4 assists across his past five games, so even a brief absence would redistribute wing minutes.
Corey Kispert posted 20 points, five rebounds, and five assists in 37 minutes.
Cam Whitmore chipped in 20 points and seven boards across 18 minutes, while
Bilal Coulibaly's recent best sits at 13 points and four rebounds. All three could see modest bumps in minutes and touches if George sits.
--Brian DailisanSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Tennessee Titans running back
Tyjae Spears continued to share time in the backfield in Week 12's matchup with the Seahawks. He only had three carries for four yards, compared to
Tony Pollard's 11 carries for 20 yards. Each running back also posted exactly four catches on five targets for 21 yards. While Pollard got more work this week, Spears played 43% of snaps and remains in almost an even snap share. If he can get going in any week, he'll likely end up with over 50% of snaps, as he did in Week 8 and Week 11. His best game of the year was Week 8 against Indianapolis, when he had nine carries for 59 yards and his only touchdown of the season. Spears is getting enough work to still be a deep-league flex play from the waiver wire, although he has tough running back matchups against the Jaguars and Browns the next two weeks.
--Zach ThompsonSource: ESPN
November 25, 2025
New England Patriots wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte returned from a two-week absence and played 80% of the team's snaps in Week 12 against the Bengals. He only had two catches on two targets for 15 yards, but he seems to be over his injury and ready to resume his role as the team's deep threat.
Hunter Henry went off on Sunday on underneath routes, but Boutte is still involved enough on the outside to be a nice addition on waiver wires, if he's available in standard-sized leagues. QB
Drake Maye has been doing a good job spreading the ball around, which makes Boutte a boom-or-bust play with upside. He has totaled 25 catches for 446 yards and five touchdowns in his 10 games this season and has a favorable matchup this week against the Giants on Monday before a Week 14 bye week.
--Zach ThompsonSource: ESPN
November 25, 2025
Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back
Omarion Hampton has missed six consecutive games since being placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury suffered during a Week 5 loss to the Washington Commanders. Head coach Jim Harbaugh said he does not expect Hampton's practice window to be opened until after their Week 12 bye, so there should be a new update coming soon on the rookie's status. The 22nd overall pick in this past year's draft was working off to the side in practice before the bye and is now out of the walking boot, which should give him a decent shot of suiting up in Week 13 against the Raiders. Hampton was having a strong rookie season before the injury, recording 66 carries for 314 yards and two touchdowns to go with 20 receptions (22 targets) for 136 yards in five games, good for an average of 15.4 PPR points per game. Second-year back
Kimani Vidal will return to a backup role, and Hampton should slot back in as a high-end RB2 in fantasy upon his return.
--Kyle McCarthySource: RotoBaller
November 25, 2025
Florida Panthers forward Sam Reinhart notched three points during Monday's 8-3 road win over the Nashville Predators, finishing with one goal and two assists. He did all of his scoring in even-strength situations, extending his point streak to seven games. During the streak, Reinhart has finished without a goal only two times, and he has lit the lamp in three consecutive games. While Reinhart was a disappointment to many fantasy managers early in the season, he has started to make up for it. Currently, he shares the league's second-longest active point streak with Dallas' Jason Robertson.

November 25, 2025
New York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox had two assists in Monday's 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Blues. The 2021 Norris Trophy winner helped the Rangers get only their second home win of the season by setting up Vincent Trocheck and Adam Edstrom for a pair of goals. The Rangers have struggled this season, but you wouldn't know it from Fox's numbers. He has registered five points across the last three games alone and boasts 21 points (three goals, 18 assists) in 24 appearances overall. Colorado's Cale Makar (29) and Winnipeg's Josh Morrissey (22) are the only rearguards in the league with more points than Fox. The two-time All-Star even holds a positive plus/minus rating of plus-one, even though his team ranks third from the bottom in the Eastern Conference

November 25, 2025
Tampa Bay Lightning winger Brandon Hagel contributed two goals and an assist during Monday's 3-0 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers. He opened and finished the scoring, sticking an even-strength assist between his two goals. After a few dull performances, Hagel has exploded for seven points (four goals, three assists) across the past two games. He has struck a good partnership with Anthony Cirelli and Nikita Kucherov. The line took care of all Tampa goals on Monday night, scoring a combined eight points. For the season, Hagel has recorded 11 goals and 22 points in 21 games.

November 25, 2025
Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy pushed his winning streak to four games in Monday's 3-0 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, recording his first shutout of the season with 20 saves. It was his sixth career shutout against the Flyers, which is tied for his most against a single franchise. Vasilevskiy has also stopped the Dallas Stars from scoring six times. After some early-season jitters, Vasilevskiy has produced a string of strong performances, going 9-2-0 over his last 11 starts. During that stretch, he has allowed two or fewer goals in eight contests. The big improvement in form has allowed Vasilevskiy to take his record for the season to 9-5-2. On average, he has given up 2.36 goals while registering a .913 save percentage.
--Taavi PailkSource: ESPN
November 25, 2025
Utah Mammoth center Logan Cooley dominated against the Vegas Golden Knights on Monday night, finishing a 5-1 victory with four goals and one assist. He recorded his third career hat trick and became the first player in franchise history to score as many as four goals in a single game. Cooley's final two goals came with the Vegas net empty. This was a hugely impressive performance from the Pittsburgh-born forward, especially considering his recent dry spell. Across his previous 11 November appearances, Cooley had settled for four points. Cooley had a hot start to the campaign with 12 points in October, so the wheels fell off very suddenly. Following Monday night, Cooley is back to averaging nearly a point per game, boasting 13 goals and eight assists after 23 outings.

November 25, 2025
Columbus Blue Jackets right wing Mathieu Olivier (upper body) left Monday's matchup against the Washington Capitals after logging only 4:49 of ice time. He sustained an upper-body injury in the first period. Olivier ranks just outside the top 10 in hits this season with 71. Across 23 games, he has also chipped in offensively, producing three goals and six assists. The Blue Jackets lost Kirill Marchenko (upper body) ahead of Monday's game and might now be without another top-nine piece on Wednesday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

November 25, 2025
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Zach Werenski (upper body) may have to spend some time on the sidelines after getting hurt in Monday's loss to the Washington Capitals. He missed the final period of play due to an upper-body injury. Werenski is having a huge year with the Blue Jackets, boasting 21 points (seven goals, 14 assists), 89 shots, and 33 blocks through 23 outings. Only two defensemen in the league have scored more points. If Werenski were to miss time, players like Ivan Provorov, Damon Severson, and Denton Mateychuk would receive more usage on the Columbus blue line.
--Taavi PailkSource: Columbus Blue Jackets PR
November 25, 2025
Orlando Magic forward
Paolo Banchero (groin) will remain on the sidelines for a seventh straight game on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers. He continues to nurse a left groin strain, and there isn't a timetable for Banchero's return. During his absence,
Tristan da Silva had had additional fantasy value as Banchero's replacement in the first unit. He has posted 13.3 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game in a starting role. Additionally,
Franz Wagner,
Desmond Bane, and
Jalen Suggs receive more offensive touches while Banchero is injured.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 25, 2025
Los Angeles Lakers center
Deandre Ayton (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Los Angeles Clippers. He sustained a knee contusion in Sunday's win over the Utah Jazz, exiting after only 13 minutes. Prior to Sunday's matchup, Ayton was on a nice run of three consecutive double-doubles. He has averaged 15.5 points and 8.4 rebounds in 29.2 minutes as a Laker this season. When Ayton missed his first game of the season earlier this month against the Miami Heat,
Jaxson Hayes started in his place. He had 15 points, five rebounds, and one block. Hayes is likely to get the starting nod again on Tuesday, with
Maxi Kleber taking over backup duties. The Clippers allow the eighth-most fantasy points in the league to centers, making this a good matchup for Hayes.
