Ray’s injury was not immediately apparent. He remained down after a run play for some time and his stride appeared labored as he exited the field. Ray is notably playing with a large, round cast encompassing his right hand.

Dotson was a non-factor even with DeVonta Smith out for the second week in a row. The Eagles’ No. 2 receiver with Smith sidelined is Dallas Goedert. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore Dotson with or without Smith on the field.

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.

Rapoport’s report comes shortly after interim HC Darren Rizzi told reporters Hill would require further testing on his injured knee. Rapoport confirms as much, saying Hill will “have an MRI to determine the severity of the injury. But feared to be significant.” If this is the end of Hill’s 2024 season, he finishes having completed 2-of-4 passes for 21 passing yards and one interception, rushed 39 times for 279 yards and six touchdowns and caught 23-of-30 targets for 187 yards. He is under contract through the 2025 season.

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.
