The Jaguars continue to run rampant in free agency, as Duvernay becomes the fourth player to agree to a deal with the team on the first day of legal tampering. Duvernay caught 37 passes for 407 yards and three touchdowns in 2022 but was an afterthought in the Ravens’ offense last season, totaling just four receptions on nine targets. A special teams ace who was named an All-Pro in 2022 and to back-to-back Pro Bowls in 2021 and 2022, Duvernay will likely offer more on kick and punt returns than he will on offense.

Robinson attempted to play through his injury but did not see a snap in the second half of Sunday’s loss. It’s just the latest in a string of injuries that have plagued Robinson all season, as he’ll now look to get right in time for Week 13’s game against the Titans. Austin Ekeler is still in concussion protocol, which means the Commanders could be very thin at running back if both he and Robinson can’t play on Sunday. Robinson’s status will be one to monitor throughout the week, but those in need of help should look to stash Jeremy McNichols where available.

Walker was emotional when exiting the field in Sunday’s win over the Patriots, but it sounds like he avoided the worst with his latest injury. The veteran linebacker is at risk of missing at least one game but will have a chance to return in Week 14 against the Jets. Walker has totaled 48 tackles and one interception in his first year with the Fins.

Ian Rapoport reported over the weekend that it was “unclear” how banged up Rodgers is because he has “resisted getting scans done, not wanting to reveal the severity of his injuries out of fear of having to come off the field.” Ulbrich said Rogers is “healthier than he was earlier in the season” and that the idea of him skipping medical scans was “news to me.” Cool situation we’ve got going here. With the Jets continuing to self-combust, we probably don’t have to watch many more games of Rodgers, the only question at this point is when the plug will be pulled.

Symptoms developed overnight. Danny Pinter could be the fill-in center for the Colts if Ryan Kelly is not able to come back from injured reserve for Week 13. We are running dangerously low on Bortolini license plates in the gift shop.

Ferguson did not practice all week after getting concussed on Monday night against the Texans. On a short week, he’d need to start practicing in a hurry to be up. Cowboys lineman Zack Martin joins Ferguson as a “long shot,” while Tyler Smith has a “good chance” to play on Thursday.

Cooks got in a bunch of limited tags last week so it stands to reason that he was close to playing next week. He probably won’t be a major fantasy factor outside of Thursday-only slates. He could siphon some touches away from Dallas’ other main receiving weapons if he does return, though.

He’ll have 21 days to be activated, though it seems like the Raiders beat believes he has a chance to play in Week 13 against the Chiefs on Black Friday. If it isn’t O’Connell, it will be Desmond Ridder getting reps. If activated, O’Connell will nevertheless be a bad fantasy play even despite the Chiefs defense looking fairly mortal against the Panthers in Week 12.

He partially tore the pec in Week 12’s loss against the Titans. His absence put Eric Murray on to the field as a deep safety and Jimmie Ward moved up to be the main nickel for Houston. Ward caught a pick-six in Pitre’s absence, so perhaps the dropoff won’t be stark, but Murray has never been a great defender. Pitre had been having the best season of his career with a 79.5 PFF run grade in 660 defensive snaps.

Sanders was taken to the hospital after suffering a neck injury in Sunday’s Week 12 contest. Canales said the team is still working through their evaluation of Sanders, but the rookie tight end was in the building on Monday. It seems unlikely that Sanders would suit up in Week 13 against the Buccaneers, which would leave Tommy Tremble to serve as the team’s TE1.

He left Week 12’s game with the injury and did not return. Trenton Scott played in his absence. Wylie is in some danger of missing Week 13’s game against the Titans with the injury.
