  • 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.
  • ARI Wide Receiver #14

    Michael Wilson caught 2-of-3 targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals’ Week 14 loss against the Seahawks.
    Wilson started the game with a bang, catching a 41-yard score in the Cardinals’ first drive of the game. He was all but invisible from there on, with Marvin Harrison, Jr. and Trey McBride combining for 22 of the team’s 38 targets. It was Wilson’s second straight solid outing; he had 55 yards on five receptions last week against the Vikings. Wilson will be a desperation fantasy play next week against the Patriots.
  • CHI Tight End #85
    Cole Kmet caught 0-of-0 targets in the Bears’ Week 14 loss to the 49ers.
    This is the second time Kmet has finished with zero targets in a game this season. The 49ers’ defense deserves credit for their dominant showing but Kmet deserves blame for his own failings in this one. Kmet faces the Vikings in Week 15, the team he shockingly totaled 10 targets against in Week 12. Fantasy managers should treat him as an exceptionally volatile TE1/2 for the occasion.
  • CHI Running Back #4
    D’Andre Swift rushed 14 times for 38 yards and caught 1-of-2 targets for two yards in the Bears’ Week 14 loss to the 49ers.
    Travis Homer barred Swift from passing-down duties in the first half but after Homer exited due to a head injury, Swift remained on-field for both third and fourth downs. His 40-yard outing is a complete disappointment. Swift makes for an RB3/4 against the Vikings in Week 15.
  • ARI Running Back #33
    Trey Benson had two rushes for 15 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 14 loss against the Seahawks, adding one catch for four yards.
    Benson was little more than a breather back for James Conner, who had 122 total yards and a touchdown against Seattle. Benson logged just seven pass routes in Week 14; Conner dominated passing game work and caught a shovel pass for a score. Benson would only be fantasy relevant if Conner were to miss time.
  • CHI Running Back #20
    Travis Homer caught 3-of-3 targets for 11 yards in the Bears’ Week 14 loss the 49ers.
    Homer was on his way to a PPR-friendly outing in the first half, taking 8-of-8 possible snaps on third down, fourth down and in the two-minute drill. He was forced from play after suffering a head injury and did not return for the second half. D’Andre Swift took over the third- and fourth-down role after that. Homer’s Week 15 prospects against the Vikings rely both on his own health and Roschon Johnson’s (concussion), though Homer is a PPR-flex option everything falls into place.
  • ARI Wide Receiver #18
    Marvin Harrison, Jr. caught 4-of-8 targets for 49 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 14 loss against the Seahawks.
    Harrison was quiet until the second half, and looked to be interfered with on an end zone target in the fourth quarter. The rookie was well behind Trey McBride in targets (14) and again saw no easy looks from Kyler Murray. Harrison’s disappointing rookie campaign includes games with less than 60 receiving yards in eight of his past nine. He’ll look to take advantage of a solid matchup against the Patriots in Week 15, and should be considered a top-30 fantasy option.
  • CHI Wide Receiver #15
    Rome Odunze caught 4-of-5 for 42 yards and two touchdowns in the Bears’ Week 14 loss to the 49ers.
    Odunze failed to earn a single target in the first half but made up for lost time in the second, securing both of Caleb Williams’ Week 14 touchdowns. The full-game results fail to inspire but Williams’ decision to turn to Odunze while in come-back mode could pay off down the stretch. Odunze is an intriguing flex option against the Vikings in Week 15.
  • CHI Wide Receiver #13
    Keenan Allen caught 3-of-5 targets for 30 yards in the Bears’ Week 14 loss to the 49ers.
    Allen was largely out of sight and out of mind in this one, earning just one target, which he failed to catch, in the first half. The Bears’ offense was out of sorts as the 49ers’ pass rush swarmed Williams all day long. Allen is just a WR3/4 against the Vikings in Week 15.
  • LAR Tight End #86
    Colby Parkinson caught his only target for 11 yards in the Rams’ Week 14 win over the Bills.
    Parkinson hasn’t seen more than two targets in a game since October 6th against the Packers. He should not be on any fantasy rosters with the Rams’ wide receivers healthy.
  • LAR Wide Receiver #5
    Tutu Atwell caught all three targets for 45 yards in the Rams’ Week 14 win over the Bills.
    With Demarcus Robinson leaving the game in the second half with a shoulder injury, Atwell was thrust into a larger role and delivered, including a crucial conversion on fourth and five late in the fourth quarter that set up a huge touchdown to extend the Rams’ lead. There is no word yet on the severity of Robinson’s injury, but if he were to miss any time, Atwell would enter the fantasy conversation in deeper leagues as the clear third option in the Rams’ passing attack.
