Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Puka Nacua (cramping) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest due to cramping. The superstar wideout suffered this injury in the fourth quarter. While he may be in danger of missing the final minutes of this contest, it appears he has avoided a significant injury. Before exiting, Nacua enjoyed another massive showing, bringing in nine of his 11 targets for 181 yards. With
Davante Adams (hamstring) also exiting the contest early, managers should expect
Tutu Atwell and Joran Whittington to serve as the top options in the passing attack for the remainder of Sunday's game. Given that he appears to have avoided a serious injury, Nacua should be on track to suit up on Thursday when the Rams face the Seahawks.

Dallas Cowboys tight end
Jake Ferguson (calf) is officially available for Sunday night's match against the Minnesota Vikings. The top tight end carried a questionable tag on Friday's final injury report. On Thursday, he was unable to practice but returned on Friday in a limited capacity. However, he was able to progress enough to suit up. After a hot start to the season, when he averaged an impressive 17.2 PPR points per game over the first seven weeks, Ferguson has seen his production take a massive step back, averaging just 8.7 PPR points from Weeks 8 through 14. This evening, he will face a Minnesota secondary that has allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing TEs this season. He projects to be a low-end TE1 in standard formats and is a viable play in DFS showdown slates.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Davante Adams (hamstring) exited Sunday's contest against the Detroit Lions due to a hamstring injury. The star wideout suffered this non-contact injury while running a route in the fourth quarter and immediately went to the locker room. Entering this game, Adams carried a questionable tag due to a hamstring injury after missing the first two practices of the week and remaining in a limited capacity on Friday. Managers should pay close attention leading up to his Week 16 clash against the Seahawks, which is on Thursday evening.
Puka Nacua figures to take on an even higher share of the targets for the remainder of Sunday's contest, while
Jordan Whittington and
Tutu Atwell move up the depth chart.

December 14, 2025
Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Micah Parsons (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest due to a knee injury. The superstar defensive lineman suffered this injury in the third quarter. This was a non-contact injury, and he needed assistance to walk off the field. Before exiting, Parsons tallied two tackles with one sack. For the remainder of the game, fantasy managers should expect Kingsley Enagbare and Lukas Van Ness to see an increase in snaps on the defensive line.

December 14, 2025
Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (chest) has been ruled out for the remainder of their contest against the Denver Broncos due to a chest injury. Watson sustained this injury in the third quarter when attempting to catch a pass from
Jordan Love, which was eventually intercepted by Patrick Surtain II. Before suffering this injury, the former first-round pick brought in just three of his five targets for 29. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status leading up to a critical divisional tilt in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Managers should expect
Jayden Reed and
Romeo Doubs to take on lead duties in the passing attack with rookie
Matthew Golden moving up to the No. 3 role for the remainder of Sunday's game.
--Andy SmithSource: Green Bay Packers
December 14, 2025
Denver Broncos wide receiver
Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) has returned to Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers. Mims was being evaluated for a potential concussion but was able to quickly return to action. With rookie
Pat Bryant (hamstring) unable to suit up this weekend, Mims is expected to continue to operate as the team's No. 3 WR behind
Courtland Sutton and
Troy Franklin. Mims immediately made an impact after returning, tallying a nine-yard reception on their scoring drive in the third quarter, which ended with Sutton bringing a 14-yard TD pass from
Bo Nix.
--Andy SmithSource: Troy Renck
December 14, 2025
Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Denver Broncos due to a chest injury. Green Bay's top pass catcher sustained this injury in the third quarter when attempting to catch a pass that was eventually intercepted by Denver defensive back Patrick Surtain II. Before exiting, Watson brought in three of his five targets for just 29 yards. Leading up to this game, Watson was enjoying a strong stretch of play, averaging 18.4 PPR points from Weeks 11 through 14. Fantasy managers should expect
Jayden Reed,
Romeo Doubs, and
Matthew Golden to operate as the top WRs while Watson remains sidelined.
--Andy SmithSource: Green Bay Packers
December 14, 2025
Tennessee Titans rookie tight end
Gunnar Helm (toe) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest. The rookie tight end sustained this injury in the second half. Before exiting the contest, Helm was enjoying a strong start to the game, bringing in both of his targets for 38 yards and a score. His TD reception came on a 34-yard strike from fellow rookie
Cameron Ward in the second frame. While he remains sidelined, managers should expect
Chig Okonkwo to log the majority of snaps at the tight end position and see an uptick in targets.
--Andy SmithSource: Jim Wyatt
December 14, 2025
New England Patriots rookie running back
TreVeyon Henderson totaled over 150 yards from scrimmage with two touchdowns during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. On the ground, the second-round pick out of Ohio State took 14 attempts for 148 yards and two scores. Both of his touchdowns came on long rushes for 52 yards and 65 yards, respectively. Through the air, Henderson brought in two of his three targets for an additional 13 yards. Even though Henderson ceded six carries and three targets to
Rhamondre Stevenson, Henderson still operated as the lead back and flashed much higher upside. Managers should continue to view the rookie as a high-end must-start RB2 in all formats, even if he continues to share opportunities with Stevenson, ahead of a tilt against the Ravens in Week 16
--Andy SmithSource: ESPN.com
December 14, 2025
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tyler Lockett (wrist) reeled in two of four targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 31-0 road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Lockett picked up a wrist injury late in the first half that had the team deem him questionable coming out of halftime. He'd re-enter the game in the third quarter, though he did not receive another opportunity in the passing game. It was a rough day for the offense as a whole, considering Las Vegas ran just 42 offensive plays and was shut out for the second time this season. Even if Lockett makes it through the upcoming week of practice without a setback, he may be falling out of favor in the offense. Rookie wideout
Jack Bech has accrued a higher snap share than the veteran in the previous three games, out-producing him in each.

December 14, 2025
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New Orleans Saints running back
Devin Neal (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of their Week 15 contest due to a hamstring injury. Neal sustained this injury in the first half. Before exiting, he was able to punch in a rushing score and tally 28 yards on seven attempts. The rookie also brought his lone target for four yards. With
Alvin Kamara (knee) on the shelf and
Kendre Miller (knee) shut down for this season, Neal has taken over RB1 duties in New Orleans. For the remainder of this contest, fantasy managers should expect
Audric Estime and
Evan Hull to split the backfield. Managers should keep a close eye on Neal's status during the week, as he would carry RB2 upside in a favorable matchup against the Jets in Week 16.
--Andy SmithSource: Adam Schefter
December 14, 2025
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver
Tyquan Thornton (concussion) exited Sunday's loss to the Chargers in the concussion protocol. The wideout sustained this injury in the final frame after catching a 21-yard strike from
Patrick Mahomes. Thornton finished the game with two catches on three targets for 47 yards. His yardage total trailed just
Rashee Rice and
Travis Kelce. With
Marquise Brown unable to suit up due to personal reasons, Thornton saw a larger role. Managers should monitor his status leading up to their Week 16 matchup against the Titans. If he is unable to play,
JuJu Smith-Schuster would likely see an increase in snaps but would not carry much fantasy value as their QB, Patrick Mahomes, exited this contest with a knee injury and is alos in danger of sitting out next week.
--Andy SmithSource: Kansas City Chiefs
December 14, 2025
Per the team, New Orleans Saints running back
Devin Neal (hamstring) is questionable to return for Sunday's home game against their division rival, the Carolina Panthers. The Kansas native picked up his third straight start in Week 15 with backfield mate
Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) sidelined again. However, he'd exit the contest in the first half after picking up 32 total yards and a touchdown on his eight opportunities (one reception). For the time being, teammates
Audric Estime and
Evan Hull will divvy up the share of backfield touches in his stead. Hull has more total work on the campaign, although Estime has out-carried the former in each of their previous two outings.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Jacoby Brissett went 27-for-40 for 249 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in his team's 40-20 Week 15 loss to the Houston Texans. Brissett also had three carries for six yards on the ground. Arizona's pass-happy offense continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers week in and week out. The 33-year-old veteran has now thrown at least two touchdown passes in his last eight of nine games. Brissett has also thrown at least 40 passing attempts in his last six games and has thrown over 245 yards in every game he has started this season. If the Cardinals continue to play in pass-heavy game scripts, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback for the remainder of the season. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15.

The Denver Post's Parker Gabriel reports that Denver Broncos wide receiver
Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) has exited Sunday's matchup with the Green Bay Packers to be evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return. Mims was forced from the contest in the first half, hauling in his lone target for a gain of five yards. With teammate
Pat Bryant (hamstring) already having been ruled out before the contest with an issue of his own, Denver would be pretty thin at wide receiver. With the former second-round pick on the sideline, fellow wideouts
Lil'Jordan Humphrey and
Michael Bandy figure to pick up some extra snaps. As it stands, Humphrey, Bandy,
Courtland Sutton, and
Troy Franklin are the only remaining WRs without an injury designation on the active roster.
--Alex CiullaSource: Parker Gabriel
December 14, 2025
Philadelphia 76ers center
Joel Embiid (knee) will play on Sunday against Atlanta. The 31-year-old is coming off his best game of the 2025 campaign, amassing 39 points and nine boards in Friday's win over Indiana. With
Tyrese Maxey (illness) sidelined again, Embiid could be in line for another quality outing versus a Hawks team that won't have
Kristaps Porzingis (illness).

December 14, 2025
Vancouver Canucks defenseman Zeev Buium made his team debut in Sunday's 2-1 victory against the New Jersey Devils, contributing a goal and an assist. He left a strong impression on Canucks fans, helping Vancouver get a couple of power-play goals in the first period. With this performance, Buium became the first defenseman in franchise history to notch multiple points in the opening period of his debut. Buium logged 2:33 of action with the man advantage and played a total of 19:50. He had two shots on goal, blocked one shot, and handed out one hit. All season, the bulk of Buium's offensive output has come on the power play, with 10 of his 16 points scored in those situations. The 20-year-old currently shares the rookie lead in power-play points with Matthew Schaefer of the New York Islanders.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence had a career day in the Week 15 48-20 win over the visiting New York Jets on Sunday. The fifth-year pro was excellent in the lopsided victory, completing 20-of-32 passes for 330 yards and five scores, adding 51 yards and an additional touchdown on the ground (five carries). Lawrence's five passing TDs were a new personal best and his most in a game since he threw four in Week 15 of the 2022 season. Over the last three outings, the 26-year-old has piled up a stellar 9:0 TD:INT ratio, while averaging 267.7 yards per game through the air -- over 40 yards higher than his average on the campaign as a whole (221.5). Sitting atop the AFC East with a game between them and their division-rival Houston Texans, Lawrence and the Jags will prepare for a far more challenging test next Sunday when they line up against the Denver Broncos on the road.

December 14, 2025
Minnesota Timberwolves guard
Anthony Edwards (foot) won't play on Sunday against Sacramento. Edwards continues to battle foot soreness and will now miss his second-straight game. Interestingly enough, he'll also miss his sixth game of the 2025 campaign, tying his mark from his previous two seasons combined. The Timberwolves won't be on the court again until Wednesday's matchup versus the Memphis Grizzlies, so fantasy managers will be anxiously awaiting an update. Without him,
Bones Hyland (knee), who is available, could work his way back into the starting lineup, although
Naz Reid,
Julius Randle,
Rudy Gobert, and
Donte DiVincenzo should split most of the surplus shot attempts caused by Edwards' absence.
--Dennis ClausenSource: NBA Injury Report
December 14, 2025
Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver
Isaiah Bond hauled in two deep shots for 89 yards Sunday afternoon, benefiting fantasy managers brave or desperate enough to start him in Week 15. Even though wide receiver
Cedric Tillman (concussion, ribs) cleared the league's concussion protocol and was active on Sunday, Bond lined up across from
Jerry Jeudy as the Browns' WR2 and earned four targets, his most since Week 9. The two long receptions to Bond were the few glimpses of life from the Browns' sputtering offense on Sunday, and demonstrate growing trust from fellow rookie quarterback
Shedeur Sanders. The Cleveland Browns will host the Buffalo Bills in Week 16, which is a neutral matchup for opposing wide receivers. However, Bond remains an exceptionally deep league option versus Buffalo for the second week of the fantasy playoffs.

December 14, 2025
Arizona Cardinals tight end
Trey McBride had a historic day in the Week 15 loss against the Houston Texans, recording 12 catches for 134 yards with two touchdowns on 13 targets. McBride became the first tight end in NFL history with at least 100 receptions in consecutive seasons, and set a new NFL record for most consecutive games, 16, with at least five receptions.
Travis Kelce had previously set the record in 2018 with 15 straight games, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. McBride's Week 15 performance is further magnified by his dominance against one of the best defenses in the NFL, highlighting his historic play in 2025. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 105 receptions for 1,071 yards and 10 touchdowns on 140 targets across 14 games this season. As long as McBride remains healthy, he profiles as the number one tight end in fantasy football by a healthy margin. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 16.
--Wyatt McClintockSource: Josh Weinfuss
December 14, 2025
Atlanta Hawks guard
Nickeil Alexander-Walker (ankle) is available for Sunday's game versus the 76ers. He popped up on the injury report because of a sprained right ankle, although the issue won't be enough to cause his first absence of the 2025 campaign. The 27-year-old is easily having the best season of his career, averaging 20.7 points while shooting 39.1% from behind the arc. With
Kristaps Porzingis (illness) out again, Alexander-Walker should continue to benefit on the scoring end, even with a difficult contest up ahead.
--Dennis ClausenSource: NBA Injury Report
December 14, 2025
St. Louis Blues forward Dylan Holloway (lower body) could be forced to miss time after getting hurt at Sunday's practice. He suffered a lower-body injury and needed to be helped off the ice. The Blues will continue their season on Monday against the Nashville Predators. Holloway has so far featured in all 33 games this season, posting 17 points (eight goals, nine assists). He has been a disappointment in fantasy hockey for most of the campaign, finishing five of his last seven appearances pointless. Alexei Toropchenko (leg) is expected to return to the lineup on Monday and might replace Holloway against Nashville.

Head coach Andy Reid reports that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback
Patrick Mahomes (knee) will undergo an MRI on his injured left knee. Mahomes exited Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers late in the fourth quarter after landing awkwardly on his left knee. It's never good news when an athlete suffers a non-contact injury, leaving questions about the former Texas Tech Red Raider's status for the remainder of the season. For what it's worth, Reid confirmed what most of us watching already knew, that the injury "didn't look good." Journeyman signal-caller
Gardner Minshew worked in Mahomes' stead for the remainder of Week 15's outing, and projects to be the team's solution under center if the latter is forced to miss more time moving forward. Fantasy managers can expect an update on the 30-year-old within the next 24 hours.
--Alex CiullaSource: Adam Schefter
December 14, 2025
Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Jerry Jeudy tallied just two receptions and 22 yards off his four targets during Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 15. Rookie quarterback
Shedeur Sanders was under pressure all afternoon in Chicago, and the two have struggled to build a rapport since Sanders took over the starting position in Week 12. Sanders did look for Jeudy once in the end zone, but Jeudy was unable to haul in this fantasy-salvaging pass, and the Bears defender came away with the ball. Jeudy and the Browns head back to Cleveland in Week 16 to take on the Buffalo Bills. Even though this is a neutral match-up for wide receivers, Jeudy remains a fringe WR3/FLEX option in deep leagues moving forward.

Minnesota Wild goaltender Filip Gustavsson will guard the crease in Sunday's matchup against the Boston Bruins, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports. He gets a chance to log his third start in four games after Jesper Wallstedt beat the Ottawa Senators 3-2 on Saturday. Gustavsson seems to have established himself as the clear No. 1 in Minnesota again. He carries a 9-8-3 record for the season and has posted a 2.64 goals-against average with a .907 save percentage and two shutouts. Beating the Bruins won't be easy, as David Pastrnak's crew ranks seventh in the league with a scoring average of 3.28 goals per game.

San Francisco wide receiver
Ricky Pearsall limped off the field and into the team's medical tent following his first catch of Week 15. Pearsall appeared to be dealing with an ankle issue after being tackled by a Tennessee defender. Following a brief stay in the medical tent, the second-year pro was seen exercising on the sideline and has since returned to action against the Titans.

Philadelphia 76ers guard
Tyrese Maxey (illness) won't play on Sunday against the Hawks, his second-straight absence. He's under the weather, so his next chance to suit up will be on Friday night versus the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. With
Joel Embiid (knee) questionable, Philly may need to rely more on
Paul George and
VJ Edgecombe to handle most of the work offensively.
Quentin Grimes, coming off a 10-point, nine-rebound, one-block, one-steal outing in Friday's win over the Indiana Pacers, will presumably remain in the starting lineup.
--Dennis ClausenSource: NBA Injury Report
December 14, 2025
Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Brandon Bussi will start Sunday's matchup against the Philadelphia Flyers. The 27-year-old rookie will look to continue his excellent season with another win on Sunday. In his most recent start against the Washington Capitals, Bussi became the fastest goaltender in NHL history to reach 10 career wins, accomplishing this in just his 11th appearance. He has won each of his last eight starts. Bussi has recorded one shutout while allowing 2.07 goals with a .910 save percentage. The Flyers have one of the league's weakest offenses, averaging 2.83 goals per game, making this a very favorable matchup for Bussi.

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Cam York (upper body) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Sunday against the Carolina Hurricanes. He has been out for four games due to an upper-body injury. York will take Ty Murchison's spot in the lineup. For the season, York has averaged two blocks per game, while posting one goal and 11 assists in 23 outings on the offensive end. The 24-year-old ranks second on his team with an average ice time of 23:31. On Sunday, York is expected to play a major role again as the Flyers seek revenge for Saturday's shootout loss against Carolina.
