  Cowboys | Jake Ferguson practices Wednesday    Wed Dec 17, 05:09 PM

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson (calf) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: He should be good to go against the Chargers in Week 16. Ferguson caught 2-of-4 targets for 16 yards in the Cowboys' Week 15 loss to the Vikings. He's not as hot as he was for Fantasy GMs earlier this year, but Ferguson can be considered a mid-range TE2.

  Cowboys | Javonte Williams listed as limited    Wed Dec 17, 05:07 PM

Dallas Cowboys RB Javonte Williams (neck) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Neck injuries are always tricky to deal with. Williams was banged up in Week 15, but it seems like he's on track for Week 16 against the Chargers.

  Saints | Devin Neal to miss Week 16    Wed Dec 17, 04:23 PM

New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) will not be available for the Week 16 game, according to head coach Kellen Moore.

Footballguys view: The rookie back had looked okay at times filling in for an injured Alvin Kamara. With Kamara not back at practice yet, Evan Hull and Audric Estime will be competing for touches in Week 16.

OG Kayode Awosika (foot), S Thomas Harper (concussion) and OG Christian Mahogany (fibula) fully participated in practice. The Lions only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so the report is an estimation.

  Packers | Jordan Love fully practices    Wed Dec 17, 03:58 PM

Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love (shoulder) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Love was knocked around against the Broncos on Sunday. He's facing a Bears defense on Saturday that could limit him to QB2 numbers from a fantasy perspective.

  Bears | Cole Kmet limited again    Wed Dec 17, 03:41 PM

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet (ankle, knee) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Kmet should suit up against the Packers on Saturday night. With Luther Burden and Rome Odunze potentially out in Week 16, Kmet could get more looks. He's a low-end TE2 option for Fantasy GMs.

  Bears | D'Andre Swift added to injury report    Wed Dec 17, 03:36 PM

Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Swift has been playing good football this year. The Bears have been managing his injuries during the year with some limited practices here and there. In Week 16 against the Packers, Swift is an RB2 with upside.

  Bears | Rome Odunze misses practice    Wed Dec 17, 03:34 PM

Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze (foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Odunze was a late scratch in Week 15. He's unlikely to play on Saturday against the Packers.

Link to story


  Bears | Luther Burden remains sidelined    Wed Dec 17, 03:30 PM

Chicago Bears WR Luther Burden III (ankle) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: A DNP on Wednesday (before a Saturday game against the Packers) is not a great sign for Burden's availability. D.J. Moore and Olamide Zaccheaus could be the Bears top receiving threats in Week 16.

  Dolphins | Tua Tagovailoa to be emergency QB    Wed Dec 17, 03:30 PM

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa will serve as the team's emergency No. 3 quarterback in Week 16 with QB Zach Wilson being the primary backup during the game, according to head coach Mike McDaniel.

Footballguys view: Quinn Ewers gets to start in Week 16 against the Bengals. The Dolphins have gone with a run-heavy offense while Tagovailoa has been struggling. Expect that to be the case with the rookie QB Ewers getting the start.

  Raiders | Geno Smith could start Week 16    Wed Dec 17, 03:10 PM

Las Vegas Raiders QB Geno Smith (hand) could start Week 16, according to head coach Pete Carroll.

Footballguys view: A clearly-not-100-percent Smith against the Texans elite defense is not good. Smith missed last week, and Kenny Pickett couldn't do much of anything against the Eagles. Downgrade all Raiders pass-catchers no matter who is starting. It's a little better with Smith over Pickett, but this matchup is just plain bad for the Raiders.

  Chiefs | Two players cleared to return    Wed Dec 17, 03:07 PM

  Ravens | Lamar Jackson not practicing     Wed Dec 17, 02:58 PM

Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (illness) did not practice on Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Like all illness designations this time of year, we think the player should be cleared later in the week. Circle back on Friday to get an update on Jackson's status.

  Panthers | No practice for Tetairoa McMillan     Wed Dec 17, 02:52 PM

Carolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan (ankle, foot) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: We'll see if McMillan can get a practice in on Thursday or Friday. Panthers HC Dave Canales said the rookie WR was "rolled up on" during a run play against the Saints in Week 15. Jalen Coker could do even more than his WR2/flex play if McMillan has to miss time.

  Chiefs | Patrick Mahomes placed on IR    Wed Dec 17, 02:45 PM

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Mahomes is on the long road back from his LCL/ACL injury. There's a chance he's ready for Week 1 of 2026, but that may be a bit too optimistic. He's already started his recovery, but this is an injury that might stretch into the 2026 season despite the positive reports. Updates next summer before training camp will be what Chiefs fans and Fantasy GMs are focused on.

  Bills | Dalton Kincaid misses practice    Wed Dec 17, 02:37 PM

Buffalo Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 17. The Bills only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so this is an estimation.

Footballguys view: Keep an eye on this situation. Kincaid caught 3-of-4 targets for 34 yards in the Bills' Week 15 win over the Patriots. A DNP on Wednesday might be maintenance for a knee injury that has been bothering him, or Kincaid may have suffered a setback. Dawson Knox would do more if Kincaid can't play against the Browns in Week 16.

  Browns | Dylan Sampson misses practiceq    Wed Dec 17, 02:30 PM

Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson (calf) did not practice on Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: The rookie back from Tennessee has made some exciting plays this year for the Browns, mainly as a receiving threat. Sampson missed last week, and Trayveon Williams played the no.2 role behind Quinshon Judkins. If Sampson has to miss Week 16, Judkins might be in line to get some more targets.

  Jets | Brady Cook will start again    Wed Dec 17, 02:21 PM

New York Jets QB Brady Cook will start again in Week 16 against the New Orleans Saints.

Footballguys view: That's not great Bob. It will be difficult to trust any Jets skill position player in Week 16 with Cook under center. Cook is a low-end QB2 from a fantasy perspective.

  Cowboys | CeeDee Lamb sits out of practice    Wed Dec 17, 02:19 PM

Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb (illness) did not practice on Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: It's an illness, so we expect Lamb out there during practice at some point later in the week. Against the Chargers in Week 16, Lamb should produce at his usual WR1 level for Fantasy GMs out there.

  Chiefs | Rashee Rice in protocol    Wed Dec 17, 02:15 PM

Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (head) is going through the concussion protocol after experiencing symptoms Monday, Dec. 15, according to head coach Andy Reid.

Footballguys view: Rice now needs to work through the protocol if he's going to get out there against the Titans in Week 16. If Rice has to miss this game, QB Gardner Minshew will be without one of his best targets. That means Travis Kelce could be in for a sizable workload. Let's see what Rice's status looks like later in the week.

  Bengals | Tee Higgins still recovering    Wed Dec 17, 02:14 PM

Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins (concussion) is still going through the concussion protocol, according to head coach Zac Taylor.

Footballguys view: Higgins was limited last week but still missed Week 15. Now, against the Dolphins in Week 16, the Bengals are watching Higgins closely to see if he can get back out there. With a couple of concussions this year, they need to be as careful as possible.

  Packers | Josh Jacobs misses practice    Wed Dec 17, 01:57 PM

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle, knee) did not practice on Wednesday, Dec. 17.

Footballguys view: Jacobs missed two days of practice last week before playing against the Broncos in Week 15. Now, set to play a huge game against the Bears in Week 16, Jacobs is being managed carefully during practice. Emanuel Wilson will get a large role if Jacobs can't play on Saturday night.
