When choosing who to start in fantasy football, it's important to take a lot of things into account.

Emari Demercado Remains Limited In Practice

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday.

Fantasy Football Matchups We Love - Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 12 Include Bo Nix, De'Von Achane, Quentin Johnston, Calvin Ridley, more

It seems as though fantasy managers were either incredibly disappointed or incredibly excited in Week 11. The output was modest for most players. However, if you had a monopoly on a select few players such as Cooper Kupp, Taysom Hill, or the Detroit Lions, you likely won your week. With the fantasy playoffs roughly three weeks […]

Josh Jacobs Stays Limited On Thursday

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (calf, quadriceps) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Jacobs was also listed with a quad injury last week but played through it on his way to 18 carries for 76 yards and his fourth rushing touchdown of the season in the […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 12? J.K. Dobbins, Tony Pollard, Austin Ekeler

The running back position remains challenging in Week 12, especially with six teams on bye. Many managers are forced to rely on players in tough matchups or those with limited roles. However, some backs still offer enough upside to justify starting. Let's dive into three running backs: J.K. Dobbins, Tony Pollard, and Austin Ekeler. Here's […]

D'Onta Foreman A Healthy Scratch For Third Straight Week

Cleveland Browns running back D'Onta Foreman is a healthy scratch on Thursday night for the third straight week against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Now that Jerome Ford is back to full health, Foreman has fallen to fourth on the RB depth chart in Cleveland behind Nick Chubb, Ford and Pierre Strong Jr. As long as […]

Christian McCaffrey Limited On Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) was rested on Wednesday in the first practice of the week before being limited in Thursday's session.

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 12? Christian Watson, Chuba Hubbard, Brock Purdy

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson, Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard, and San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) are popular fantasy options heading into Week 12, so it's important to know which ones you can trust as starters and which ones may need to see the bench. Of course, it will depend […]

Justice Hill In Concussion Protocol, Limited On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol but was able to put in a limited practice on Thursday.

Isiah Pacheco Remains Limited On Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco (ankle) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice.

D'Andre Swift Upgrades To Limited Participant On Thursday

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was upgraded to a limited participant during Thursday's practice after sitting out on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during Friday's practice session, but this is a positive sign for his availability heading into the weekend. Last weekend, Swift enjoyed a nice bounce-back, scoring 16.4 […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 12? Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt, Rhamondre Stevenson, Rico Dowdle, Javonte Williams

It's a great feeling to have players who are sure-fire starters every week and rack up huge point totals regularly. However, most teams aren't loaded with premier top-10 players at their positions. Most teams' RB2 and RB3/FLEX players have plenty of variability in their weekly scoring. There are also changes that shake up many backfields […]

Tyjae Spears Not Seen At Thursday's Practice

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (concussion) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. Spears suffered a concussion in the Week 11 loss to the Minnesota Vikings and doesn't appear to have made much progress in the league's concussion protocol this week, as he's now missed two straight […]

Steelers vs. Browns TNF Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Jameis Winston, Nick Chubb, David Njoku, Jerry Jeudy, Russell Wilson, Najee Harris, George Pickens

The Week 12 TNF game between two bitter AFC North rivals (Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers) is not likely to end up like the Thursday night game from two weeks ago when two different AFC North teams (Bengals and Ravens) battled to a 35-34 shootout. Somewhere deep in the charter of the Pittsburgh Steelers, I […]

Miles Sanders Sits Out Thursday's Practice

For the second straight day this week, Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders (ankle) was listed as a non-participant at Thursday's practice.

Jonathon Brooks Continues To Practice In Full

Carolina Panthers rookie running back Jonathon Brooks (knee) is well on his way to making his NFL debut this weekend against the visiting Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Brooks put in another day of full practice on Thursday and is fully expected to be the backup to lead back Chuba Hubbard in Week 12. The […]

Bucs Want To Give Sean Tucker Touches In Every Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen said the team needs to be more aware of getting running back Sean Tucker touches in every game. The team self-scouted during the Week 11 bye and is looking to Tucker more involved. The second-year back out of Syracuse flashed with 136 rushing yards, 56 receiving yards, and […]

Colts Bring Back Mark Glowinski To Practice Squad

The Indianapolis Colts signed offensive guard Mark Glowinski to the practiced squad on Thursday, according to NFL.com.

Should I Start Calvin Ridley in Week 12? Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 / WR3 ANALYSIS: The Tennessee Titans have struggled offensively, but Calvin Ridley remains crucial in their passing game.
