David Montgomery

DET Running Back #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Lions coach Dan Campbell said David Montgomery (knee) would undergo season-ending surgery.

A brutal day for the Lions gets even worse as Montgomery goes from out indefinitely to out for the season. Montgomery finishes the season with a 185/775/12 rushing line as well as 36 catches for 341 yards. He just signed an extension this season, but with the late date of this injury and the quick “out for season” call, it’s possible the torn MCL has Montgomery missing time this offseason. This firmly places Jahmyr Gibbs as high as RB2 overall in the fantasy ranks this week, behind only Saquon Barkley. It’s also possible it creates a fantasy role for Craig Reynolds.
Jaylen Waddle

MIA Wide Receiver #17

Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Jaylen Waddle (knee) avoided major injury and is “day to day.”

Waddle did not play at all in the second half of Miami’s loss to Houston in Week 15, but was on the sideline with his helmet in his hands. We’d want to see some practice reports before declaring this a non-issue, but this is as comforting a coach quote as you could hope for after Waddle waddled (sorry) off the field in the second quarter.
Diontae Johnson

BAL Wide Receiver #18

The Ravens said they “have mutually agreed with Diontae Johnson to excuse him from team activities this week.”

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports, “This is not an extension of the suspension for Johnson,” while adding that the Ravens and Johnson are “working through their options right now.” Johnson was suspended by the team in Week 15 after refusing to enter the game in Week 13’s loss to the Eagles, and was expected to be back with the team on Monday. Now, it sounds as if the two sides could be headed for a split before season’s end. Things have gone poorly for Johnson since he arrived to Baltimore at the NFL’s trade deadline. He has just one catch for six yards since joining the team.
Alvin Kamara

NO Running Back #41

Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi said Alvin Kamara will undergo more tests on his groin following Week 15’s loss to the Commanders.

Rizzi said Kamara’s injury is a groin abductor injury. Kamara said after the game that it felt like a minor injury, which he suffered on a 21-yard receiving touchdown in the third quarter, but Rizzi opted not to comment on the severity of the injury. Kamara’s Week 16 status, for now, is up in the air, meaning Kendre Miller is a priority add on waivers for fantasy managers still in the fight. Miller could be in line for a busy day if Kamara is sidelined, while Jamaal Williams, who has just 35 carries on the season, could also see an uptick in touches.
Joe Mixon

HOU Running Back #28

Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said Joe Mixon (ankle) “came out fine, Joe will be fine.”

Mixon left Week 15’s game briefly after a hip-drop tackle, but returned without missing more than a few snaps. He didn’t have his normal burst, but finished out the game. Volume alone will put Mixon near the RB1 line in a Week 16 start against the Chiefs — the Texans suddenly find themselves as slight favorites with Patrick Mahomes’ status in jeopardy.
David Njoku

CLE Tight End #85

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said he is “hopeful” David Njoku (hamstring) will play in Week 16’s game against the Bengals.

Njoku did not practice all of last week with the hamstring ailment, so we’re probably going to need to at least see a limited session before we get excited about the odds of him coming back. The Browns morphed into a Jerry Jeudy-only offense with Njoku out on Sunday, with only Elijah Moore also garnering more than four targets.
Patrick Mahomes

KC Quarterback #15

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Patrick Mahomes is week-to-week with a “mild” high-ankle sprain.

The week-to-week designation undoubtedly puts Mahomes’ Week 16 availability into question, and perhaps his availability for the remainder of the regular season. with the AFC West already secured, the Chiefs could opt to sit Mahomes for the remainder of the regular season and all his ankle to get fully healed — or close to it — in time for the playoffs. If he doesn’t play in Week 16, the Chiefs would be forced to turn to Carson Wentz, who joined them on a one-year deal this offseason. Wentz saw his first action in Week 15’s win over the Browns, throwing for 20 yards on two pass attempts while also rushing three times for zero yards. He would have some mid to low-end QB2 appeal in 2QB/Superflex leagues but should be avoided in standard 1QB leagues.
Will Levis

TEN Quarterback #8

Titans head coach Brian Callahan said the team will take the next few days to decide who will start at QB in Week 16 against the Colts.

Levis was benched in Week 15’s loss to the Bengals after committing four turnovers. The second-year quarterback is already looking at a job as a career backup less than two years after the Titans made him the No. 33 overall pick, but whether or not he gets another start this season currently hangs in the balance. Mason Rudolph isn’t the Titans’ quarterback of the future, but he may prove to be the better option for a team hoping to close out the year on a high note. Rudolph threw for 209-2-1 in relief of Levis in yesterday’s loss and will in all likelihood draw the start for Week 16 once the coaches are through with their “evaluations.”
Jameis Winston

CLE Quarterback #5

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski was unwilling to name a starting quarterback on Monday when discussing Week 16’s game against the Bengals.

Nothing has changed since Sunday, when Stefanski said after the game that he was unwilling to name a starter for next week’s game against the Bengals. Stefanski knows what he has in both Jameis Winston and Dorian Thompson-Robinson. With Winston, the Browns have a chance to be an explosive offense that’s just as capable of a 30-point outburst as it is a three-turnover day and no points — as we saw last week. With DTR, the offense’s ceiling is much more capped while the floor remains just as low. Fantasy managers who have something to play for in Week 16 will be pulling for Winston to get the nod, as a move to DTR would be an immediate downgrade for all Browns pass-catchers.
T.J. Watt

PIT Linebacker #90

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said he’s optimistic T.J. Watt (ankle) will play in Week 16 against the Ravens.

Tomlin said after Week 15’s loss to the Eagles that the team believed Watt suffered a low-ankle sprain. The hope is that the sprain is so low that Watt will be able to suit up for a pivotal AFC North clash with the Ravens on Saturday in a game that would decide the division if the Steelers were to walk away victorious. This will be an injury worth monitoring all week.
