New York Giants tight end
Theo Johnson (toe) was a limited participant for the team's first practice following a Week 14 bye. Last seen in a primetime Monday night loss to the Patriots, Johnson struggled with a costly drop while bringing in only three of his eight targets for 29 yards. His status is worth monitoring through the week, as he has built a strong connection with rookie quarterback
Jaxson Dart, and his favorable Week 15 matchup against the Commanders has him firmly in the streaming conversation to begin the fantasy playoffs. Prior to the Week 13 loss to New England, Johnson had finished as a top-12 tight end in six of his last nine outings, and the explosive athlete is currently RotoBaller's TE15 for Week 15.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
David Sills V was targeted four times in Week 14's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks, however, he failed to haul in any of those passes. It was a disappointing performance after two straight weeks catching touchdown passes from
Kirk Cousins. Despite the goose egg, two of the 29-year-old's targets came in the red zone, and he was on the field for 94 percent of the team's offensive plays, which was well ahead of wide receivers
Darnell Mooney (77 percent) and
Dylan Drummond (61 percent). With
Drake London (knee) ruled out once again, Sills will have another opportunity to produce on Thursday night against a Tampa Bay defense that has yielded the sixth-most passing yards per game this season (237.8). The 6-foot-3 wideout has a floor of zero, but has the potential for another touchdown catch as well, making him a very risky WR option in only the deepest of formats.

Dallas Cowboys tight end
Jake Ferguson (calf) was limited during Wednesday's practice with a calf issue. Ferguson had a clean bill of health heading into Week 14's Thursday night matchup with the Lions, and he was heavily involved throughout the game, finishing with five catches on seven targets for 58 yards. Ferguson has been the TE3 in Half-PPR formats and is RotoBaller's TE8 heading into a Week 15 Sunday night matchup with the Vikings, so his status certainly bears monitoring. Third-year tight end
Luke Schoonmaker makes for an interesting pivot should Ferguson's availability remain cloudy until game time, but with all teams now past the bye, fantasy managers should be able to find higher upside streaming options in what would be a worst-case scenario.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Jalen McMillan (neck) is currently questionable to make his season debut versus the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15 on Thursday night. McMillan has been sidelined all season due to a neck injury he suffered in mid-August in the preseason. Both McMillan and
Mike Evans (collarbone) were activated from Injured Reserve on Wednesday. It seems that both wideouts are trending in the right direction ahead of Thursday's matchup with Atlanta. There might be too many mouths to feed for McMillan to be a viable fantasy contributor, though. Rookie
Emeka Egbuka,
Chris Godwin Jr., and Evans will all likely be ahead of McMillan in the pecking order. There's some stash value here in deeper formats, but McMillan won't be a recommended starting option in 12-team leagues in Week 15 if he makes his 2025 debut on TNF.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Chris Godwin Jr. has been a decent contributor on offense over the last two games as he puts a fractured fibula in the rearview mirror. Godwin had a season-high five receptions for 55 yards during last week's loss to the New Orleans Saints. The 29-year-old has been seeing more involvement lately, but that could change, beginning on Thursday night versus the division-rival Atlanta Falcons. Both
Mike Evans (collarbone) and
Jalen McMillan (neck) have been activated from Injured Reserve and could suit up against the Falcons. If that happens, Godwin could quickly see a reduced role in this offense. The good news is that Godwin is the best slot receiver on this roster and should remain a key part of the passing attack. He should still see enough work to muster up WR3/flex value this week.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Ladd McConkey (foot) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice. This is a new injury for McConkey, so it bears monitoring, but it should be noted that he led all Chargers non-quarterback skill players with 64 offensive snaps in a Week 14 overtime win over the Eagles. The Chargers travel to Kansas City in Week 15, and with a banged-up offense coming off one of their sloppier performances of the season, it's reasonable to distrust most of Los Angeles' passing game against a Chiefs defense that has been stout across the board for most of the year. McConkey is currently RotoBaller's WR22, though that ranking could drop based on his practice availability.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie first-round wide receiver
Emeka Egbuka has struggled to produce any consistent numbers over the last month of the season. Egbuka has finished with 42 receiving yards or fewer in four straight games. His target share has been there, with eight targets or more in seven consecutive contests. Unfortunately, Egbuka and quarterback
Baker Mayfield aren't on the same page right now. Egbuka's fantasy value could drop even more going forward with veteran
Mike Evans (collarbone) trending in the right direction to return in Week 15. Egbuka figures to lose targets to Evans and
Chris Godwin Jr. to close out what has been a strong first NFL season. The rookie wideout has enough big-play potential to warrant a look for the Thursday night matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons, but fantasy managers might want to temper their expectations for him as a WR3/flex.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback
Justin Herbert (hand) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, but he informed the gathered media that he's further along than he was at this point last week, with his grip strength improving. In a gutsy Monday night win over the Eagles, he completed fewer than 50% of his passes for under 150 yards and one touchdown. He also threw an interception and fumbled twice, while taking a beating all night long. With injuries continuing to mount on the offensive line, he faced 26 pressures and was sacked seven times, with notable contact made to his injured non-throwing hand throughout the game. The Chargers face another swarming defense in Week 15 when they travel to Kansas City. Playing behind a battered offensive line that has been overmatched for most of the season, Herbert is RotoBaller's QB20 heading into the first week of the fantasy playoffs.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Mike Evans (collarbone) is considered questionable ahead of the upcoming Thursday night matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. Evans was activated off Injured Reserve on Wednesday, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll be active this week. The veteran wideout has missed the last six games due to a broken collarbone that he suffered in Week 7. Before that, Evans missed three games due to a hamstring injury, so it's been an injury-plagued 12th season for the future Hall of Famer. There's a good chance that Evans has a limited snap count if he is active on Thursday night. He hasn't played a full game since Week 3. Everyone is aware of Evans' big-play ability, but the risk might outweigh the reward of starting him in what is the first week of the fantasy playoffs in a lot of leagues.

New Orleans Saints running back
Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice session. Kamara has yet to practice since he suffered a sprained MCL in Week 12 against the Atlanta Falcons. Rookie RB
Devin Neal (abdomen) was limited to begin the week as well. That leaves
Audric Estime and
Evan Hull as the only healthy running backs on the Saints' roster. Fantasy managers will need to monitor the health of these two backs ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. This would be a situation to avoid for fantasy managers if both Kamara and Neal are unable to suit up. With the Saints out of playoff contention, it's unlikely they will rush Kamara back, so fantasy managers should not expect to have him available this weekend.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. Lawrence didn't have any kind of wrap on his ankle when addressing the media, though. It seems like a minor injury that shouldn't keep him out of the upcoming Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets on Sunday, but we'll continue to keep a close eye on his status over the next couple of days. Lawrence has played better lately, with multiple touchdown passes in three straight games. Fantasy managers should check back on Thursday and Friday for another update on his status. Lawrence should offer low-end QB1 value for this weekend as long as his ankle won't limit his mobility inside and outside of the pocket.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Alec Pierce (rib) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Pierce suffered an undisclosed injury at the end of last week's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but now we know it was a rib ailment. It doesn't appear to be anything serious with Pierce already back to being a full participant in practice. Fantasy managers should fully expect Pierce to be ready to play against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15 on Sunday on the road. His fantasy value will take a hit with quarterback
Daniel Jones (Achilles) out for the rest of the season. Pierce isn't as appealing with either
Philip Rivers or
Riley Leonard (knee) making the start in a tough road matchup this weekend.

December 10, 2025
The Indianapolis Colts plan to wait until the end of the week before deciding on a starting quarterback ahead of the Week 15 matchup versus the Seattle Seahawks. Right now, newly signed
Philip Rivers and rookie
Riley Leonard (knee) are competing for the starting gig. It's worth noting that Rivers hasn't played in a football game since January of 2021. The 44-year-old came out of retirement to help bolster an Indy quarterback room that has been devastated by injuries. Leonard suffered a knee sprain last week after coming in for
Daniel Jones (Achilles), who suffered a season-ending injury during the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. At the moment,
Brett Rypien is the other QB option on the roster. The Colts want to see a full week of practice from all their quarterbacks before making a final decision. Whoever is starting in Seattle for the Colts this weekend will be a desperation fantasy play in two-QB formats.

Atlanta Falcons running back
Tyler Allgeier tallied double-digit carries in Week 14's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks, rushing 11 times for 34 scoreless yards (3.1 YPC), but managed to salvage his fantasy day by recording two catches for 33 yards. His work in the passing game, albeit small, is an interesting revelation, as the BYU product recorded just one game out of nine played with
Michael Penix Jr. (knee) in which he tallied two receptions, however, he's done so in three of four games with
Kirk Cousins at the helm. If nothing else, it increases his fantasy floor and could make him a more viable flex option going forward. The 25-year-old, with eight touchdowns already this year, will take on a Buccaneers defense that has yielded the 13th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. Although he's firmly behind
Bijan Robinson in the backfield pecking order, he continues to get red zone opportunities (four each last week) and should be a priority handcuff for Robinson managers. The fourth-year pro projects as an RB4/Flex play for Thursday Night Football, and could even see a small uptick in usage given the short turnaround from Sunday, as Robinson had less time than normal to recover.

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end
Elijah Arroyo (knee) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice session. According to head coach Mike Macdonald, Arroyo is day-to-day due to a lingering knee issue. Arroyo exited early during last week's blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons and is in danger of missing the upcoming matchup against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15. The absence of Arroyo would mean an expanded role for
AJ Barner this weekend. Barner would make for a more intriguing TE2 streamer in fantasy football if Arroyo is eventually ruled out for Sunday's game. The 22-year-old rookie has only 15 receptions for 179 yards and one touchdown in his first 13 NFL games, leaving him off the radar in most redraft leagues.
