  • LAC Tackle #75
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Although GM Buddy Nix believes the Bills can win with Chris Hairston at left tackle, he would like to pick up two more players at the position this offseason.
    “People say Fitz gets the ball out quick, but we run our offense with a lot of empty sets, with five blockers and if they bring six he better get it out,” explained Nix. “In this offense he has to get it out quick.” Nix concedes that Hairston isn’t the “prettiest athlete,” suggesting more of a stopgap than a long-term solution.
  • MIN Cornerback #2

    Vikings CB Stephon Gilmore (hamstring) will not play in Week 14 against the Falcons.
    Gilmore is dealing with a low-grade hamstring injury according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. It doesn’t sound like a long-term issue but is enough to knock him out for Week 14. Gilmore has started all 12 games for the Vikings this year, tallying seven pass breakups and one interception in the process. The Vikings still have a strong pass-rush, but their weakened secondary will be an easy target for Drake London and Darnell Mooney this week.
  • BUF Wide Receiver #1
    Curtis Samuel (foot) was removed from the injury report and will play Week 14 against the 49ers.
  • BUF Tight End #86
    Dalton Kincaid (knee) is questionable for Week 14 against the Rams.
  • BUF Wide Receiver #0
    Keon Coleman (wrist) is questionable for Week 14 against the Rams.
    Coleman’s status is tough to pinpoint. He is clearly still rehabbing his injured wrist but his continued limited participation does suggest he has not suffered any setbacks. Given his offensive environment and defensive matchup, fantasy managers can start him as an albeit risky, upside WR4/flex option this week, if active. This should be a high-scoring game.
  • CHI Running Back #20
    Beat reporter Scott Bair reports Travis Homer should take on a “bigger role” in Week 14 against the 49ers.
    Starter D’Andre Swift (quad) is questionable to play this week and backup/passing-game specialist Roschon Johnson (concussion) is already ruled out. Homer is likely to at least take on third- and fourth-and-long duties and will at least be considered for the high-value two-minute drill. He is a viable flex play but possesses a wide range of outcomes.
  • NYG Defensive Back #3
    Giants CB Deonte Banks (ribs) will not play in Week 14 against the Saints.
    Banks has started in all 11 of his appearances this year. He has seven pass breakups and a forced fumble. Starting linebacker Bobby Okereke is also out, leaving the Giants’ defense drastically undermanned.
  • Giants LT Jermaine Eluemunor (quad) is doubtful for Week 14 against the Saints.
    Right tackle Evan Neal is questionable with a hip issue. Head coach Brian Daboll called both week to week on Wednesday. It’s safe to assume Eluemunor won’t play through the doubtful tag while Neal appears to be on the wrong side fo questionable given Daboll’s comments. Drew Lock will be an easy target for the Saints’ pass-rush on Sunday.
  • NYG Wide Receiver #1
    Malik Nabers (hip) is questionable for Week 14 against the Saints.
    Nabers suffered a hip flexor injury during Thursday’s practice and didn’t take the field on Friday. He underwent an MRI after practice. The fact that he wasn’t ruled out today suggests the MRI didn’t reveal any major issues. Still, at the end of a lost season, Nabers won’t be pushed to play through the injury if he isn’t close to fully healthy. At this point, losses are more valuable than wins for a Giants team with one eye on the draft. If Nabers is ruled out ahead of kickoff, Wan’Dale Robinson will take over as the team’s top receiver with Darius Slayton also playing a larger role.
  • CHI Wide Receiver #13
    Keenan Allen (ankle) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 14 against the 49ers.
    Allen’s ankle seemingly responded positively following his Week 13 sprain. He practiced in full over the last two days after taking the day off on Wednesday. With DJ Moore and D’Andre Swift questionable to play due to quadriceps injuries and Roschon Johnson sidelined by a concussion, Allen could take on a WR1/2-worthy workload this weekend.
  • LAR Tight End #89
    Tyler Higbee (knee) will not play in Week 14 against the Bills.
    Higbee has been practicing in full since last Friday but is being eased back into the lineup and will not suit up this week. He is still working his way back from the torn ACL he suffered in the Wild Card Round last season. The Rams do not have a fantasy-relevant tight end for Week 14.
