With Tommy DeVito taking over at quarterback, Graziano makes the (reasonable) assumption that the Giants will play it conservatively on offense, which could mean a heavy dose of rookie RB Tyrone Tracy. Tracy has been efficient by every measure, averaging 5.1 yards per carry with a 47 percent rushing success rate. He’ll face off against a Tampa defense giving up the NFL’s 14th highest rushing success rate in 2024. Tracy is locked in as a top-15 option in Week 11.

Cooks, who hasn’t played since Week 4 after developing an infection during a knee procedure, has a chance to suit up this week against the Commanders. The Cowboys could choose to hold Cooks out until their Thanksgiving Day matchup against the Giants. If Cooks remains sidelined in Week 11, Kavontae Turpin — who had 86 yards and a touchdown on three catches in Week 10 — could be interesting in deeper formats.

Tucker for the first time in his 13-year NFL career is struggling mightily to put the ball between the uprights. He’s missed six of his 22 field goal tries in 2024, including two in Baltimore’s Week 11 loss to the Steelers. “You have to find that competition first if you’re going to be blunt about it. Where is that competition? That would be one thing,” Harbaugh said when asked if the team would consider benching Tucker. “The best option right now is to get Justin back on point, because he’s fully capable of doing it. (We) certainly haven’t lost any confidence in Justin Tucker.” Tuckers’ struggles from distance stretch back to 2023. Over the past two seasons, he’s made just four of 12 field goals of more than 50 yards. Continued struggles for Tucker could force Harbaugh to give some thought to a kicker change as the Ravens head toward the playoffs.

Desperate PPR-scam desirers at tight end can start with Luke Schoonmaker, who caught 6-of-10 targets for 56 yards on Monday night. Dallas’ offensive ceiling is probably 20 points right now, but Schoonmaker has made the most of his opportunities when Ferguson has missed time this year, with 12 catches in two games against the Saints and Texans.

But there will also be a package of plays for Trey Lance. Ultimately this may make neither player superflex viable if they are splitting into each other’s time. Only truly desperate times would call for starting either player against a Commanders defense that is on the upswing in Week 12.

We’ve heard almost nothing from beat reporters or Browns media about Njoku missing this game, so we’ll stick with believing he’s just being managed for the moment. Njoku caught 9-of-10 targets for 81 yards last week against the Saints and played a season-high 86 percent of the snaps.

“It’s hard to imagine him even wanting to come back,” Cimini adds. SNY’s Connor Hughes concurred, saying “it’s very clear now that this organization is going to find a new quarterback.” The Jets beat has come out strong with the belief that this is the end of the line for Rodgers in New York following the firing of Joe Douglas. There’s enough inertia here that we wouldn’t entirely rule out a Rodgers return — who is the owner? who is the general manager? who is the head coach? — but if those questions aren’t answered in a manner that is favorable to Aaron Rodgers, it seems likely that Rodgers would want to leave. The question would then become: Who would want a 41-year-old quarterback who won’t throw deep and doesn’t want to be challenged?

Phil Savage, a former general manager for the Browns and a member of New York’s front office, will serve as the Jets’ interim GM. Douglas is out after five and a half seasons as New York’s general manager. It hardly comes as a shock after the front office’s gamble on 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers turned out disastrously on every front. The Jets are 3-8 in another lost season without any clear path forward outside a total teardown and years-long rebuild. Douglas bet on Rodgers and lost badly. The Jets were 30-64 with Douglas as GM. The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports the team’s GM search would begin immediately.

Fields in Week 11 had two rushes for 17 yards after weeks of Steelers coaches talking up a Fields rushing package. Smith said Fields would have had more usage against Baltimore if the Steelers had not stalled out on several first half drives. He stressed that the team does not see Fields as a gadget player. “We have two starting quarterbacks,” Smith said Tuesday. “It’s a very unique situation.” More usage for Fields — especially in the red zone — could make Russell Wilson unviable in one-quarterback fantasy formats.

McCarthy told reporters after the game that he should have allowed Lance to run the offense near the end of the blowout loss. “I could’ve gotten him a series. That’s one thing that I would second-guess myself on,” McCarthy said. “I didn’t want to get into putting him in for a play or two, because he’s more than a gadget player in my opinion. We had him prepared to take a series, and frankly there at the end I should’ve gave him that series, and I regret not doing that.” With the Dallas offense going nowhere under backup QB Cooper Rush, Lance could see opportunities down the stretch. The dual-threat Lance should be rostered in superflex formats just in case.
