Hill took a helmet to the knee on a fourth quarter run and was unable to get up after the play. He was carted to the locker room and fantasy managers can assume he will be out for the rest of the game. At the time of his exit, Hill had caught 5-of-7 targets for 37 yards, adding five carries for 10 yards. If this turns out to be a long-term injury, it will be a big loss for the Saints offense, which was playing the all-round utilityman at tight end and in the backfield with several key injuries on offense already.

Henry’s scoreless stat line didn’t give fantasy managers much to work with, but he caught multiple passes for just the second time this season and cleared 100 yards from scrimmage for the seventh time this year. Henry’s fantasy output has taken a notable hit in the rare Baltimore loss, but 121 yards being a floor game tells you everything you need to know. Game script shouldn’t be an issue for Henry following Baltimore’s Week 14 bye. He will return for a date with the Giants as a top-end RB1 once again.

Brooks was the only Panthers running back to earn a target in this one and starter Chuba Hubbard lost a fumble in overtime. This backfield could look noticeably different in Week 14. Brooks maintained balance through contact after the catch and ripped off an explosive gain through the air. He finished with four total missed tackles forced—the first four of his career. Fantasy managers should add him wherever available. He is a potential RB4 against the Eagles in Week 14.

Hubbard took 100.0 percent of the two-minute drills snaps, plus 14-of-17 third- and fourth-down snaps but failed to earn a single target. Jonathon Brooks, meanwhile, earned three. Hubbard’s overtime fumble was likely his most consequential play. Buccaneers LB Anthony Nelson cleanly stripped the ball out of Hubbard’s hands on a run up the middle from the Buccaneers’ 34-yard line. Hubbard could see a reduced role against the Eagles in Week 14. He is an RB2/3 for the occasion.

Moore is handling his contributor role better than expected; his nine targets trailed on Adam Thielen’s 10. Moore dropped multiple passes though and looks every bit the 29-year-old journeyman that he is. Fantasy managers should treat him as a WR7 against the Eagles in Week 14.

Tremble did a good job of making himself available to Bryce Young against the blitz. The tight end got loose against broken coverage, picking up a big gain early on and was able to put together a usable PPR outing. He is a volatile TE2 against the Eagles in Week 14.

Bryce Young looked Legette’s way under pressure a couple of times but some of the passes were noticeably errant. Legette still has a ways to go before he can regularly compete with Adam Thielen for the team’s No. 1 WR role. Legette is a volatile flex play against the Eagles in Week 14.

Thielen made multiple acrobatic catches against the Buccaneers, including a heads-up play in the end zone that was somehow ruled an incompletion on review. Thielen’s route running and hands were extremely sharp all day. He looks like a player reborn, locked in with his ascending QB. Thielen is a WR2/3 with upside against the Eagles in Week 14.

McCaffrey looked spry through the first 20 minutes of play before giving himself up after taking a handoff five minutes into the second quarter. Players have been struggling to gain their footing in the drilling snow in Buffalo, something that could have aggravated McCaffrey’s Achilles tendinitis. We’ll await further word from the team.

Young’s mobility jumped off the screen in this one. He took just one sack against the blitz-happy Buccaneers despite playing into overtime with them. It was truly a special showing. Young kept his eyes downfield while traveling out of the pocket and throwing on the run and his box score was seemingly robbed of a second Adam Thielen touchdown. The referees reviewed what appeared to be an acrobatic score from the veteran receiver but ultimately ruled that he failed to complete the catch. The two have an undeniably strong connection though. His 186 passing yards at half time are a career-high. Young is a QB2 with upside against the Eagles in Week 14.
