New England Patriots tight end
Hunter Henry caught seven of his 10 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. It's no secret that Cincinnati is the worst team in the NFL when it comes to defending opposing tight ends, and Henry capitalized on this favorable matchup. The veteran entered this week as the overall TE13 in PPR leagues, but he jumped all the way into the top five on Sunday afternoon. He's unlikely to replicate this outing next Thursday against the New York Giants, but he's still worth starting as a low-end TE1 in fantasy football.

Portland Trail Blazers center
Robert Williams III (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Oklahoma City due to knee maintenance. Williams has averaged 4.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 0.8 blocks in 12.8 minutes this season, and his last five games included 5.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks on 60.9 percent shooting. With Williams sidelined and
Donovan Clingan (knee) available to start, Portland will consolidate its interior workload around Clingan, who has been a steady rebounder and finisher.
Yang Hansen and
Duop Reath profile as deep-league streamers for rebounds and blocks, while
Deni Avdija and
Jerami Grant could absorb extra minutes in smaller lineups if Portland adjusts its rotation.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end
Michael Mayer (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Cleveland Browns. He exited during the first half and was initially listed as questionable before being downgraded to out. He finishes the game with one catch for 14 yards. Mayer impressed earlier this season while filling in for the injured
Brock Bowers, but ever since Bowers returned, Mayer has not been a fantasy scoring threat. Ian Thomas will step up as Vegas' No. 2 tight end behind Bowers.

Orlando Magic guard
Anthony Black will start in Sunday's meeting with the Celtics.
Jalen Suggs (knee) will take the night off to rest after logging 32 minutes in Saturday's win over the New York Knicks, opening the door for Black to get some extra action. The 21-year-old has started three times this season, averaging 15.3 points, 1.3 steals, and 1.0 blocks. However, with
Paolo Banchero (groin) and
Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) also out, Black might be more productive, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers.

New York Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov (shoulder) is expected to miss 5-6 months after undergoing surgery, the team announced on Sunday. The Russian rearguard injured his shoulder during a contest against the Dallas Stars on Nov. 16. He was on the receiving end of a bad hit from Stars forward Mikko Rantanen, who was tossed from the game because of it. Romanov has recorded one assist, 17 shots, 31 blocks, and 31 hits in 15 games this season. Due to Romanov's absence, Adam Boqvist has become a regular in the lineup. Marshall Warren could also receive opportunities to play soon.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson had 28 carries for 107 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Minnesota Vikings. He also caught each of his two targets for an additional 18 receiving yards. Wilson was very impressive was handling a large workload on Sunday. With
Josh Jacobs (knee) sidelined, he accounted for 78% of the backfield's rushing attempts. The 26-year-old's ability to be efficient while handling heavy volume should earn him more opportunities going forward, even if Jacobs returns to action next week. The Packers face the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, giving Jacobs four days to recover. If the veteran back suits up, Wilson could still carve out standalone value as an RB3/flex. If Jacobs misses a second consecutive game, though, the Fort Valley State product could jump to the high-end RB2 tier against Detroit.
--Andersen PickardSource: RotoBaller
November 23, 2025
Orlando Magic center
Goga Bitadze will start in Sunday's meeting with the Celtics. With
Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) sidelined, Bitadze will make his first start of the 2025 campaign. He played well in his 42 starts last season, averaging 9.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks. With that in mind, the 26-year-old may be even more productive on Sunday night, considering
Jalen Suggs (knee) and
Paolo Banchero (groin) won't suit up. Fantasy managers can consider Bitadze for all formats.
--Dennis ClausenSource: Orlando Magic Daily
November 23, 2025
New Orleans Saints running back
Alvin Kamara (knee) exited during the first half of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Atlanta Falcons. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had three carries for 11 rushing yards, plus two catches for an additional four receiving yards. The dual-threat back is just one game removed from a 14.5-point (PPR) showing, but he'll need to get back on the field this Sunday if he wants to replicate that performance. With Kamara sidelined and
Kendre Miller (knee) on IR,
Devin Neal will step up as the Saints' primary running back for the time being.
--Andersen PickardSource: New Orleans Saints PR
November 23, 2025
New England Patriots running back
TreVeyon Henderson rushed for 66 yards on 18 carries during Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He also caught three of his four targets for an additional 15 receiving yards. There was some concern about Henderson's role with
Rhamondre Stevenson returning from injury. While Stevenson did earn some touches, Henderson remained the primary running back. Now that he has the lead role all to himself, the rookie needs to turn his attention to improving his efficiency. He averaged 3.7 yards per carry on Sunday, just one game removed from averaging 3.3 yards per carry against the Jets. If he can improve his scoring or yardage efficiency, he can be an RB1 going forward. In the meantime, he ranks as more of a mid-range RB2 for Week 13 against the New York Giants.

November 23, 2025
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward
Bogdan Bogdanovic (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's meetings with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team has downgraded his status from questionable to out. A left hip contusion will keep Bogdanovic sidelined for a second consecutive game. Due to
Bradley Beal's (hip) injury, Bogdanovic has had a much larger role in the Clippers' rotation lately, averaging 28.0 minutes a night. His absence from the lineup means more minutes for
Cam Christie, who missed a double-double by just two points and one rebound in Saturday's victory over the Charlotte Hornets.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
Charlotte Hornets center
Ryan Kalkbrenner (ankle) won't play on Sunday against Atlanta, marking his second absence of the 2025 campaign. He spent the day riding a questionable designation before eventually being classified as doubtful. All things considered, despite making a few appearances on the injury report, the rookie has played well throughout his inaugural year, averaging 9.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks. Fortunately, Charlotte won't play against until Wednesday versus the New York Knicks, so fantasy managers will wait to see how things work out surrounding his availability. However, as far as Sunday's contest is concerned,
Moussa Diabate, who had 15 points, 11 boards, and one steal in his only start of the 2025 campaign, is capable of surging, especially with
LaMelo Ball (ankle) and
Brandon Miller (shoulder) sidelined.
--Dennis ClausenSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
New York Giants wide receiver
Wan'Dale Robinson caught nine of his 14 targets for 156 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 overtime loss against the Detroit Lions.
Jameis Winston quarterbacked the Giants again this week, and his gunslinger style of play allowed the young receiver to rack up a whopping 156 yards through the air. The 24-year-old pass catcher has been quite impressive as the de facto No. 1 receiver in
Malik Nabers' absence, ranking as the overall WR17 in the eight weeks since Nabers went down. Robinson's ceiling may decline a little next week when
Jaxson Dart (concussion) returns under center, but Dart still has the passing skills needed to keep Robinson in the WR2 tier. He should continue to be started in most leagues as he takes on the New England Patriots in Week 13.
--Andersen PickardSource: RotoBaller
November 23, 2025
Charlotte Hornets guard
Tre Mann (ankle) has been upgraded to available for Sunday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks, meaning he is ready to end a two-game absence. Mann has missed a pair of games due to a sore left ankle. With
LaMelo Ball (ankle) and
Brandon Miller (shoulder) on the shelf for Sunday's game, Mann could be one of Charlotte's leading players against the Hawks. The 24-year-old has averaged 10.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 3.1 assists across 22.0 minutes this season.
--Taavi PailkSource: Charlotte Hornets PR
November 23, 2025
Orlando Magic center
Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) won't play on Sunday against the Celtics. The former Duke Blue Devil has averaged 12.3 points and 7.4 rebounds while shooting a career-high 45.8% from behind the arc. He also hasn't missed a game, so fantasy managers are hoping Sunday's absence is an isolated incident. With Carter out of the equation,
Goga Bitadze could be making his first start of the 2025 campaign. Bitadze started 42 times last season, averaging 9.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks. However, with
Paolo Banchero (groin) and
Jalen Suggs (knee) ruled out, he has an excellent chance of being more productive.
--Dennis ClausenSource: Orlando Magic
November 23, 2025
New York Giants quarterback
Jameis Winston completed 18 of his 36 pass attempts for 366 yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Detroit Lions. He also got involved in some trickery, adding a third touchdown on a 33-yard reception that was thrown to him by wide receiver
Gunner Olszewski. Winston's turnover and low completion rate were unfortunate, but his high yardage and three total touchdowns made him a valuable fantasy option once again. Unfortunately for fantasy managers who were relying on him as a streamer, Winston will head back to the bench in Week 13 if
Jaxson Dart (concussion) clears concussion protocol, as expected. The offense belongs to Dart once again, but at least we've seen that Winston can be a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback if he ever gets thrust back into the starting role.
--Andersen PickardSource: RotoBaller
November 23, 2025
Atlanta Hawks guard
Luke Kennard (hip) will sit out the second leg of a back-to-back on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. The talented sniper is dealing with inflammation in his left hip, exiting the lineup after tallying eight points and three assists in 24 minutes against the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday. Kennard has averaged over 22 minutes per game off the Hawks bench this season, and the likes of
Vit Krejci,
Caleb Houstan, and
Keaton Wallace could get more burn in the second unit on Sunday. However, none of the three players stands out as someone fantasy managers can trust.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught eight of his 10 targets for 167 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 win against the Tennessee Titans. He also had a four-yard rush. The 23-year-old entered this week as the overall WR1 in PPR leagues, and he only widened the gap between himself and every other receiver with Sunday's explosion. The 23-year-old now has at least 20 fantasy points (PPR) in each of his last seven games, as well as nine of 11 games this season. It goes without saying that Smith-Njigba should be viewed as a must-start WR1 for Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings.
--Andersen PickardSource: RotoBaller
November 23, 2025
Atlanta Hawks forward/center
Onyeka Okongwu (ankle) will return from a one-game absence on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. Initially, the team listed Okongwu as questionable for the contest after he missed Saturday's win against the New Orleans Pelicans with an ankle issue. With no
Kristaps Porzingis (knee) in the Hawks lineup on Sunday, Okongwu is poised to make his seventh start of the season. He has boosted his numbers to 20.0 points and 6.7 rebounds per game in a starting role this season, posting two double-doubles.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
Detroit Lions running back
Jahmyr Gibbs had 15 carries for 219 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 overtime victory over the New York Giants. He also caught 11 of 12 targets for an additional 45 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. The 23-year-old enjoyed one of the most memorable games of his young career, amassing more than 55 fantasy points in PPR leagues and helping Detroit secure an overtime victory. The highlights of Gibbs' games were a 49-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter and a 69-yard rushing touchdown in overtime. He will remain a spectacular high-end RB1 option against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Day in Week 13.
--Andersen PickardSource: RotoBaller
November 23, 2025
Toronto Raptors forward/center
Collin Murray-Boyles (knee) is available on Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. He was in danger of missing a third consecutive game due to a knee problem. With
Jakob Poeltl (back) resting on Sunday, Murray-Boyles could play a significant role in the contest. The 20-year-old has averaged 8.5 points and 3.5 rebounds in 20.0 minutes through his first month as an NBA player.
Sandro Mamukelashvili, coming off a season-best 23-point performance in Friday's win over the Washington Wizards, figures to also benefit from Poeltl's absence on Sunday.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
Brooklyn Nets point guard
Egor Demin (neck/jaw) will remain in the lineup on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. He has been upgraded from probable to available ahead of tip-off. Demin has started each of the last seven games for Brooklyn, averaging 10.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.4 assists in 23.8 minutes. Demin's run as a starter includes a 16-point, five-assist effort in last week's meeting with the Raptors. Toronto plays at a much higher pace than Brooklyn, making this a favorable fantasy matchup for the Russian rookie.
--Taavi PailkSource: NBA Injury Report
November 23, 2025
Brooklyn Nets center
Nicolas Claxton (elbow) will suit up for Sunday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. The team has upgraded Claxton's status from probable to available. Claxton has yet to miss any action this season, averaging 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.3 blocks in 29.8 minutes. Fantasy managers may even get a bit more production from Claxton on Sunday, as he won't have to deal with
Jakob Poeltl (back). With that said, even with Poeltl in the lineup, the Raptors recently struggled to contain Claxton, who notched 21 points and eight rebounds in this matchup last week.

November 23, 2025
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that he expects quarterback
Aaron Rodgers (wrist) to play in next Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Buffalo Bills. Although Rodgers sat out this week's loss against the Chicago Bears, it sounds like his absence will last just one game. He was reportedly pushing to play against the Bears in Week 12, but the Steelers' medical personnel ultimately held him out. The veteran quarterback is 6-4 this season with 19 passing touchdowns and seven interceptions, ranking as the overall QB17 in fantasy football. Assuming he doesn't suffer any sort of setbacks within the next week, Rodgers should suit up against Buffalo, ranking as a mid-to-high QB2 in fantasy football.

Minnesota Vikings running back
Aaron Jones Sr. finished Sunday with 41 yards on nine carries and caught three of four targets for 19 yards as the Vikings lost convincingly, 23-6, on Sunday at Green Bay. Jones did well enough in his limited usage, but the Vikings ran only 45 plays and gained 145 total yards, which included a total of four yards in the second half. Minnesota surrendered five sacks, quarterback
J.J. McCarthy threw two more interceptions without a touchdown, and the Vikings committed a special teams turnover that doomed the day. Fantasy managers still got something from Jones, even on an awful day, which is the closest thing to a silver lining the Vikings have at the moment. Minnesota will travel to Seattle in Week 13.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end
Noah Gray (head) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Indianapolis Colts. He has entered concussion protocol and is questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught three of his four targets for 25 receiving yards. Gray will be evaluated as medical personnel assess whether he's experiencing the symptoms of a concussion. If a concussion is confirmed, Gray would automatically be ruled out, and he'd likely miss Thursday's game against the Cowboys, too. In the meantime,
Robert Tonyan will step up as the Chiefs' No. 2 tight end behind
Travis Kelce.
--Andersen PickardSource: Kansas City Chiefs
November 23, 2025
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. The superstar receiver once again was hampered by a horrible offensive performance overall, as Minnesota gained 145 total yards as a team. Quarterback
J.J. McCarthy finished 12-for-19 passing for 89 with two interceptions as the Vikings managed to run only 45 total plays. Jefferson still led the team in receiving, but that didn't say much on a day in which Minnesota gained four yards in the second half. Fantasy managers will have to hope the Vikings can turn the corner, and quickly, as the team travels to Seattle in Week 13.
--Nick PiotrowiczSource: ESPN
November 23, 2025
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Ashton Dulin (hamstring) exited during the second half of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had one catch for 48 yards, as well as a 40-yard kick return. The 28-year-old hasn't carved out a consistent workload on offense this season, but he had certainly been making an impact in his limited opportunities on Sunday.
Anthony Gould will earn more snaps as the Colts' No. 4 receiver with Dulin sidelined, and he'll likely step up as a returner on special teams, too.
--Andersen PickardSource: James Boyd
November 23, 2025
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver
Tee Higgins (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the New England Patriots. Higgins exited in the fourth quarter after his head hit the turf while attempting to catch a pass. He was taken to the locker room for evaluation and quickly ruled out. The 26-year-old finishes the game with six targets, five catches, and 31 receiving yards. Cincinnati finds itself very short-staffed on offense with
Joe Burrow (foot) on IR,
Ja'Marr Chase suspended,
Tahj Brooks (concussion) ruled out, and now Higgins sidelined.
Andrei Iosivas, Mitch Tinsley, and
Charlie Jones will operate as the top wide receivers in
Joe Flacco's offense for the remainder of Week 12.
--Andersen PickardSource: Kelsey Conway
November 23, 2025
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver
Jordan Addison did not record a catch and saw only one target as the Vikings lost 23-6 on Sunday at Green Bay. The Minnesota offense reached a new low on Sunday by running only 44 plays for 145 yards, which included a brutal four total yards in the entire second half. Quarterback
J.J. McCarthy completed 12 passes for 89 yards and threw two more interceptions without a touchdown. Addison was never a factor as Minnesota attempted to control the game on the ground, but fell behind and saw the Green Bay pass rush overwhelm the offensive line for five sacks. Managers have now seen a month straight of little performance from Addison, whose Vikings are at Seattle next week.
--Nick PiotrowiczSource: ESPN
November 23, 2025
Minnesota Vikings quarterback
J.J. McCarthy failed to reach 100 yards passing and threw his ninth and 10th interceptions of the season in a humbling loss on Sunday at Green Bay. In total, the second-year quarterback finished 12-for-19 for 87 yards with no touchdowns, and rushed for 10 yards on two carries. The Packers sacked McCarthy five times as the Vikings gained four total yards in the second half. It was the third consecutive rough outing for McCarthy, who is getting his first extended look as a starter. The Vikings attempted to control the game on the ground, but ran just 44 plays and gained 145 total yards. Fantasy managers in Superflex leagues will want to tread cautiously with McCarthy next week at Seattle.
