  • 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.
  • CHI Running Back #20

    Bears RB Travis Homer is questionable to return for Week 14 against the 49ers with a head injury.
    The Bears are now terribly thin at the RB position. Homer was already filling in for the concussed Roschon Johnson, meaning D’Andre Swift will likely handle close to all running back touches for the rest of the game.
  • ATL Wide Receiver #1
    Darnell Mooney caught 6-of-7 targets for 142 yards in the Falcons’ Week 14 loss to the Vikings.
  • ATL Wide Receiver #5
    Drake London caught 5-of-10 targets for 70 yards in the Falcons’ Week 14 loss to the Vikings.
    With Kirk Cousins turning further and further into a pumpkin, London continued to struggle to turn his volume into meaningful production. Today was the fifth different time this season London has drawn at least 10 looks without reaching 100 yards receiving. London was the intended “target” on Kirk Cousins’ hilariously bad second quarter interception. “Captain Kirk” didn’t see a zone defender just chillin’. Beyond that, there wasn’t much of note on London’s looks. With the caveat that Cousins could get benched for Michael Penix, London will be a floor-based, low-end WR2 for Week 15 against the Raiders.
  • NYG Running Back #29
    Tyrone Tracy rushed 16 times for 45 yards and a touchdown in the Giants’ Week 14 loss to the Saints, adding five receptions for 38 yards.
    With Drew Lock at the controls, efficiency is impossible to come by in this offense, but Tracy still had his best PPR fantasy effort in several weeks. He out-touched Devin Singletary 21-2. The Giants don’t care about rookie Tracy’s fumbling issues as they try to study their personnel for the future. Tracy should be an RB2 most weeks down the stretch, but game script could get well and truly wrecked against the Ravens in Week 15.
  • NO Running Back #25
    Kendre Miller rushed 10 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in the Saints’ Week 14 win over the Giants.
    Active for the first time since Week 8 and only the third time all season, always-injured Miller posted the third most carries of his career while scoring his second touchdown. He easily leapfrogged broken veteran Jamaal Williams on the depth chart. With Derek Carr (wrist) joining the Saints’ absurdly long injury list, Miller should see plenty of change-up carries behind Alvin Kamara down the stretch.
  • CAR Running Back #24
    Panthers coach Dave Canales said Jonathon Brooks will undergo more tests on his knee following Week 14’s loss to the Eagles.
    Brooks suffered a non-contact injury in Sunday’s loss to the Eagles and needed to be carted off the field. It’s a brutal setback for the second-round rookie who spent all offseason and the majority of this season rehabbing from a torn ACL he suffered last November while playing with the Texas Longhorns. To make matters potentially worse, Sunday’s injury was to the same leg Brooks injured last season. The Panthers haven’t made any predictions on what this could mean for the remainder of Brooks’ season, but the early signs are pointing to this being a season-ender.
  • LAR Wide Receiver #15
    Demarcus Robinson is questionable to return to Week 14 against the Bills with a shoulder injury.
    Robinson hauled in a beautiful 56-yard pass from Matthew Stafford in the third quarter but landed hard on his right shoulder and went into the locker room immediately. To add insult to injury, the completion was called off by a questionable offensive pass interference penalty. That was Robinson’s only target of the game, so if he does fail to come back to the game, he will end the day with zero catches and only one target while Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp have 16 combined targets at the time that Robinson left the game.
  • NO Running Back #41
    Alvin Kamara rushed 17 times for 44 yards in the Saints’ Week 14 win over the Giants, adding five receptions for 35 yards.
    With the weapons-bereft Saints reduced to a vanilla, predictable offense, Kamara couldn’t find any space on his impressive touch total. He also ceded 10 carries and a scoring plunge to re-activated backup Kendre Miller. With Derek Carr (wrist) now starting at a season-ending injury, things might get even worse for this offense. Kamara could be more of an RB2 down the stretch, including for Week 15 against the Commanders.
  • MIN Running Back #27
    Cam Akers rushed five times for 37 yards in the Vikings’ Week 14 win over the Falcons.
    One week after Aaron Jones drew a quarters-long benching, Akers was back to pure breather option. Four of his five carries came deep into closeout mode. Although we assume the Vikes will look to spell injury-prone vet Jones a bit down the stretch, Akers continues to have zero standalone value in fantasy.
  • NO Quarterback #4
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Saints fear Derek Carr fractured his non-throwing hand in the Saints’ Week 14 win over the Giants.
    While the injury is to Carr’s non-throwing hand, this would presumably be a season-ender for the veteran quarterback. It’s been a tough second season for Carr, who has thrown for 2145-15-5 while completing 67.7 percent of his passes. We’ll have more clarity on his injury in the coming days, but we could be looking at Spencer Rattler as the starter for the final four weeks of the season.
