  • LAC Tackle #75

    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.
  • KC Running Back #10
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Isiah Pacheco rushed 14 times for 55 yards in the Chiefs’ Week 14 win over the Chargers, adding six yards on two receptions.
    Pacheco handily led the team in backfield snaps and opportunities for the first time since returning from a gruesome ankle injury, notching 18 opportunities to the six of Kareem Hunt. The 3.9 yard per carry were not what we’ve grown accustomed to from Pacheco but the matchup against the Chargers was a difficult one on the ground, meaning he could find himself back in trusted RB2 territory when the Chiefs play the Browns in Week 15.
  • KC Quarterback #15
    Patrick Mahomes completed 24-of-37 passes for 210 yards and one touchdown in the Chiefs’ 19-17, Week 14 win over the Chargers, adding 17 yards on four carries.
    The Chiefs took a 13-0 lead into the half after the two teams both struggled to move the football consistently during the first two quarters. The Chargers then owned the third quarter, rattling off 14 unanswered points to take a 14-13 lead into the fourth quarter. Alternating field goals left Kansas City down by one point with the football and just over five minutes on the clock, which is when Mahomes took over the game. He led the team down the field, notably converting a third-and-seven with two minutes remaining deep in Chargers territory, allowing the team to take knees to run down the clock and kick the game-winning field goal as time expired. Even the kick brought more drama as it hit the upright but found its way through to lock up the AFC West for the Chiefs, who now have a two-game lead over the Bills for the one-seed after the latter lost today. Mahomes and the Chiefs travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns in Week 15.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #1
    Quentin Johnston caught 5-of-7 targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Chargers’ Week 14 loss to the Chiefs.
    Johnston now has seven touchdowns on just 28 receptions this season, clearly operating as a primary option for the Chargers in the red zone. He made a couple nice grabs in this one as well, notably hanging onto a catch on third down in the second half while being walloped by two Kansas City defenders over the middle of the field. Johnston remains unlikely to see consistent volume considering his seven targets came with rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey out and tight end Will Dissly departing before the half. Up next for Johnston and the Chargers are the Buccaneers in Week 15 at home.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #5
    Joshua Palmer caught 6-of-9 targets for 78 yards in the Chargers’ Week 14 loss to the Chiefs.
    Palmer made a few nice grabs for a team starved of its top two pass-catchers. Rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey was held out with shoulder and knee injuries while lead tight end Will Dissly departed before the half after just two receptions, leaving Palmer to primary pass-catching duties. Fantasy managers in league playoffs will want to monitor the respective statuses of McConkey and Dissly before making the decision on whether to add Palmer for a game against the Buccaneers in Week 15.
  • LAC Running Back #30
    Kimani Vidal rushed eight times for 34 yards in the Chargers’ Week 14 loss to the Chiefs.
    Vidal was used sparingly in the first half but was given more opportunities after the break, ultimately finishing with eight carries and one target to the 10 carries of lead back Gus Edwards. It was Edwards who found the end zone, which ultimately proved the difference between the two timeshare backs. Vidal remains unlikely to see enough weekly volume to warrant fantasy consideration, something that shouldn’t change when the Chargers host the Buccaneers in Week 15.
  • LAC Running Back #4
    Gus Edwards rushed 10 times for 26 yards and a touchdown in the Chargers’ Week 14 loss to the Chiefs.
    The straight-ahead rusher found things difficult against the stout Kansas City defensive front but salvaged an otherwise pedestrian fantasy outing with a third quarter touchdown plunge from three yards out. Edwards saw 10 opportunities to the nine of rookie Kimani Vidal, making this backfield a frustrating timeshare in the absence of J.K. Dobbins. Another difficult matchup awaits in Week 15 when the Chargers host the Buccaneers.
  • LAC Quarterback #10
    Justin Herbert completed 21-of-30 passes for 213 yards and one touchdown in the Chargers’ 19-17, Week 14 loss to the Chiefs, adding 12 yards on four carries.
    Herbert and the Chargers got shut out in the first half as the two teams traded blows, taking a 13-0 deficit into the break. The third quarter was a completed different story with the Chargers rattling off 14 unanswered points to take a 14-13 lead into the final frame before the two teams traded field goals the rest of the way. Ultimately the Chargers came up just short on a made 31-yard field goal from third string Kansas City kicker Matthew Wright, a kick that hit the upright and found its way through. It was a valiant effort for a Chargers team missing its top pass-catcher in rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey, also losing lead tight end WIll Dissly after just two catches. The Chargers fall to 8-5 and into a three-way tie for the final three playoff spots out of the AFC with four weeks remaining in the regular season. Up next for Herbert and the Chargers are the Buccaneers at home in Week 15.
  • NYJ Tight End #83
    Tyler Conklin caught 3-of-5 targets for 33 yards in the Jets’ Week 14 loss against the Dolphins.
    Conklin now has seven catches for 65 yards over his past two games as Aaron Rodgers’ short-area dump off option. With just six games of more than three receptions in 2024, Conklin is only fantasy viable in the deepest formats. He takes on the Jaguars in Week 15.
  • MIA Running Back #25
    Jaylen Wright had two rushes for seven yards in the Dolphins’ Week 14 win against the Jets, adding two catches for six yards.
    Wright saw more playing time than usual with Raheem Mostert (hip) sidelined. De’Von Achane dominated backfield touches, however, see 20 touches and scoring a touchdown against New York. Wright won’t be fantasy relevant unless Achane and Mostert miss time.
  • MIA Wide Receiver #3
    Odell Beckham caught his lone target for one yard in the Dolphins’ Week 14 win against the Jets.
    Beckham remains a part-time player in the Miami offense. He didn’t draw a look until the fourth quarter and ran a route on just 10 of the Dolphins’ 52 drop backs. OBJ has one game with more than two catches on the season and won’t hold fantasy relevance unless Jaylen Waddle or Tyreek Hill miss time.
