  • LAC Tackle #75
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Chris Hairston (ankle) will return to the starting lineup at left tackle this week.
    Hairston will make his third career start on Ryan Fitzpatrick’s blind side, allowing Andy Levitre to move inside to center as Eric Wood’s replacement. The Bills have done a great job of papering over the O-Line all season.
  • CHI Wide Receiver #13

    Keenan Allen (ankle) practiced in full on Thursday.
    Allen progressing from a Wednesday DNP to a Thursday FP is great news. While he may continue receiving treatment on his ankle, he is fully on track to play for Week 14. With D.J. Moore currently sidelined by a quad injury, Allen profiles as a high-volume WR2/3.
  • CAR Wide Receiver #18
    Jalen Coker (quad) was limited in Thursday’s practice.
    It’s possible Thursday was a bit of a rest day for Coker, who was listed as a full participant in Wednesday’s practice. The rookie receiver has missed two straight games since suffering his injury on the Friday before Week 12’s game against the Chiefs. Coker being active in both practices is a good sign for his Week 14 availability. We’ll likely know more on his status on Friday when the team releases its final injury report.
  • CIN Tackle #75
    Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Orlando Brown Jr. (knee/fibula) is doubtful for Week 14 against the Cowboys.
    Taylor’s comments come on the Bengals’ first official day of practice for the week. The veteran left tackle returned in Week 13 after missing the previous three games but appears to have reaggravated his injuries. We’ll see if Brown is able to get on the practice field in any capacity, but it sounds like Taylor is already preparing to be without his bookend left tackle.
  • BUF Tight End #86
    Dalton Kincaid (knee) was seen practicing Thursday.
    Kincaid was seen in a “normal practice jersey,” per ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg, after being listed as a limited participant on Wednesday. He’s clearly trending toward a return after missing the last two games with a knee injury, but it’s unlikely we know anything about his Week 14 availability before Friday. Kincaid has caught 34 passes for 356 yards and two touchdowns this season and would be a fringe TE1 against the Rams if active.
  • BUF Wide Receiver #0
    Keon Coleman (wrist) was seen practicing Thurday.
    Coleman was listed as limited in Wednesday’s practice and will likely carry the same designation on Thursday. The rookie receiver is still sporting a non-contact jersey, per ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg, but he is undoubtedly trending in the right direction ahead of Week 14’s game against the Rams. Whether Coleman needs additional time to recover or not is to be determined, but if he is active, Coleman would rank somewhere as a WR4 in his first game since Week 9.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Breece Hall (knee) was not spotted at Thursday’s practice.
    That’s two straight missed practices for Hall, who is at risk of missing Week 14’s game against the Dolphins if he’s not able to practice in some capacity on Friday. Hall said last week that he was “not sore or anything” when asked about his injury ahead of Week 13’s game against the Seahawks, but what he’s saying isn’t exactly lining up with what we’re seeing in-game or at practice. With the Jets’ season virtually over and Hall clearly dealing with something, it’s possible he misses some time if not the remainder of the season to avoid further damage.
  • CAR Tight End #0
    Ja’Tavion Sanders (neck) was seen practicing Thursday.
    Sanders has practiced in back-to-back days for the Panthers this week. Speaking Wednesday, head coach Dave Canales said the rookie was “trending toward” playing in Week 14 against the Eagles, so him shedding the non-contact jersey is a good step in that direction. Assuming he’s active this weekend, Sanders would be a low-end TE2 it what will be one of the toughest defensive matchups for the Panthers this season.
  • FA Offensive Coordinator
    UCLA fired associate head coach/offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy.
    Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger was the first to report the story. The former Chiefs offensive coordinator has now gone one-and-done in back-to-back seasons with the Commanders (2023) and UCLA Bruins (2024). Things never clicked for Bieniemy at UCLA, as his offense ranked 126th among 134 FBS schools in points per game (18.4), and 117th in offensive yards per game (328.8). Once a popular name in NFL coaching cycles, it’s safe to say the shine has worn off Bieniemy over the last two years. He’ll likely draw interest from NFL clubs next offseason, but the two-time Super Bowl-winning offensive coordinator may not be in charge of offensive play-calling at his next landing spot.
  • ARI Cornerback #28
    Cardinals designated CB Elijah Jones (heel) for return.
    The Cardinals selected Jones in the third round of this year’s draft, but the rookie corner has yet to play a regular season game due to a heel injury he suffered in the preseason. The Cardinals now have 21 days to activate Jones or rule him out for the season. Jones will return to practice this week, and can be activated at any time.
  • DAL Guard #70
    Cowboys RG Zack Martin will undergo surgery on his ankle, ending his season.
    The seven-time All-Pro guard hasn’t played since suffering his ankle injury in Week 11 against the Texans. Now, after missing two straight games and with the Cowboys having little to play for, Martin has opted for season-ending surgery to correct the issue. Martin played on 638 offensive snaps this season and earned a PFF offensive grade of 65.6. The 34-year-old lineman is in the final year of his contract, and a return to Dallas could prove complicated with the Cowboys still needing to address a long-term contract with Micah Parsons.
