    Cardinals signed sixth-round pick Chris Harrington to a three-year contract.
    Harrington was an end at Texas A&M, but will be tried at outside linebacker in Arizona’s 3-4. He’ll need to show extremely well on special teams in training camp to beat out Joe Tafoya and Bo Schobel for a roster spot.
  • LV Quarterback #15

    Raiders coach Antonio Pierce said Gardner Minshew will start against the Broncos in Week 12.
  • DEN Running Back #33
    Broncos HC Sean Payton said, “We’ll figure it out each, though, and kind of plan accordingly,” when asked about the Broncos’ RB usage in Week 11 against the Falcons.
  • TEN Running Back #2
    Titans coach Brian Callahan said Tyjae Spears is in concussion protocol.
    Spears played just 26 snaps against the Vikings in Week 11 and was mostly a spectator, with three carries and three targets to Tony Pollard’s nine and four. If you have a bye week crunch, Spears can probably head to the waiver wire ahead of Week 12. Even if he did play, it’s unlikely he’d do all that much against the Texans. It’s good news for Tony Pollard’s volume in a year that has been full of good news for Tony Pollard’s volume.
  • TEN Linebacker #50
    Titans coach Brian Callahan said Jack Gibbens (ankle) will have surgery and will be out the remainder of the season.
    “That was tough to watch and really unfortunate but he was playing well,” Callahan said after Gibbens rode a cart off on Sunday in a cast. It’s possible this injury lingers into next year. A 2022 UDFA, Gibbens had made 14 and 15 tackles the last two games as a starter and carried a 83.2 PFF grade. Jerome Baker, who came over in the Ernest Jones trade with the Seahawks, picked up as Tennessee’s other inside linebacker next to Kenneth Murray.
  • JAX Wide Receiver #0
    Jaguars coach Doug Pederson said Gabe Davis (meniscus) is out for the season.
    Davis ends his first year in Jacksonville with nine starts, 20 catches, and 239 yards with two scores. He played at least 69 percent of the snaps in every game he finished and never had more than five catches in any game, settling for a one-catch game on four separate occasions. For the privilege, Davis got a $10 million signing bonus. One of Trent Baalke’s greatest follies yet — and that’s saying something — Davis will almost undoubtedly be brought back on a $6.7 million cap figure next year since cutting him would cost the Jaguars $13.6 million in cap space. In his absence, look for Tim Jones and Devin Duvernay to get more run. No Jaguars are truly fantasy viable while Mac Jones is leading the charge.
  • CAR Running Back #6
    Panthers coach Dave Canales said Miles Sanders (ankle) will not play against the Chiefs in Week 12.
    He called Sanders’ ankle injury “week to week,” which is a degree stronger than Ian Rapoport’s assertion that Sanders would be considered “day to day” last week as the Panthers headed into their bye week. Sanders has a 38/139/1 line on the season as the main Chuba Hubbard backup. Jonathon Brooks will take over that role this week. Sanders can be dropped in any leagues he was still being held in.
  • CAR Wide Receiver #19
    Panthers coach Dave Canales says he expects Adam Thielen (hamstring) to play in Carolina’s Week 12 game against the Chiefs.
    When it’s all said and done, Thielen will have missed nine weeks with his hamstring injury. He was activated off IR last Tuesday. Thielen should fit into the three-wide sets with Jalen Coker and Xavier Legette down the stretch. It’s impossible to have any faith in him as a fantasy option until we see some results, but he might cut into targets for Legette and Coker.
  • CLE Running Back #24
    Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said the short turnaround to Thursday Night Football “played a role” in Nick Chubb playing just 22 snaps against the Saints.
    Chubb has played just 35 and 30 percent of the snaps the last two weeks against the Chargers and Saints. It’s likely that the Chargers fade was game-script influenced after the Chargers took an early 20-3 lead. But Chubb is by no means a must-start on TNF against the Steelers, even with this proclamation saying he might play more in Week 12.
  • NYG Head Coach
    Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports, “While ownership has suggested he’ll return, there is a growing sense that Giants HC Brian Daboll is coaching for his job over the final seven games.”
    This belief supposedly led to Daboll naming Tommy DeVito the starter over Drew Lock. A two-year vet of Daboll’s offensive system, it would seem Daboll is hoping DeVito’s familiarity with the system can lead to a strong run down the stretch and his return in 2025 for what will undoubtedly be an offseason full of changes. Daboll started off strong out of the gate, going 9-7-1 in his first season at the helm. He managed just six wins last season and is currenlty sitting on two wins through the first 11 weeks of this year. He’ll look to turn things around starting in Week 12 against the Buccaneers, but Daboll may not be long for the Giants if he can’t string together a few wins and end the year on a high note during the final months of the season.
  • CIN Cornerback #20
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Bengals fear CB DJ Turner suffered a fractured clavicle in Week 11’s loss to the Chargers.
    According to Rapoport, Turner will seek a second opinion on his injury, but the second-year corner “is likely out for the season.” Turner has started every game for the Bengals this season, earning a PFF coverage grade of 68.4 while allowing 21 receptions for 253 yards on 39 targets. He has yet to allow a touchdown this season and has broken up eight passes, per PFF. His loss would be a tough one for a Bengals defense that is already struggling to slow its opponents
