Week 12 BYES: Atlanta, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Jacksonville, New Orleans, New York Jets
Mike Evans (WR) Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Good news: Evans practiced to open the week. That is a great sign that Evans will return to the lineup this week after missing three games. We will monitor his practice participation and update Discord accordingly.
Isiah Pacheco (RB) Kansas City Chiefs – Pacheco has been activated from IR. He is expected to practice this week. However, the Chiefs may bring him along slowly or keep him out for a short week. Once Pacheco is up to speed, Kareem Hunt’s playing time will plummet.
George Kittle (TE) San Francisco 49ers- A hamstring injury kept Kittle out of San Francisco’s Week 11 loss and his absence was felt. Kittle was close to playing through the injury, so there is some optimism that he can practice this week.
Jake Ferguson (TE) Dallas Cowboys – Ferguson left Monday night’s loss early with a concussion. With that occurring late in Week 11, his odds of clearing the league’s concussion protocol by Week 12 are not good.
Sam LaPorta (TE) Detroit Lions – LaPorta is dealing with an AC sprain that could keep him out multiple weeks. We will monitor his practice status throughout the week. UPDATE: LaPorta practiced in full Wednesday, a good sign.
Tyjae Spears (RB) Tennessee Titans – Spears is in the league’s concussion protocol. He is unlikely to play in Week 12.
Keon Coleman (WR) Buffalo Bills – Colemans missed his second consecutive game with a wrist injury. With the Bills on bye this week, there is a better chance that Coleman will be healthy after two more weeks of rest.
Darnell Mooney (WR) Atlanta Falcons – Another hamstring injury limited Mooney in Atlanta’s Week 11 loss. However, the injury was deemed “not serious”. That bodes well for Mooney’s Week 13 availability.
Zamir White (RB) Las Vegas Raiders – White hurt his quad on Sunday and never returned. Teammate Alexander Mattison also left the game early with an ankle ailment. With the Raiders down their top-2 backs, Ameer Abdullah is one of the top waiver wire adds for Week 12.
Gabe Davis (WR) Jacksonville Jaguars – Davis will miss the remainder of the season with a torn meniscus.
MarShawn Lloyd (RB) Green Bay Packers – The Packers activated Lloyd from IR. However, he suffered appendicitis on Friday and may revert right back to IR. That would keep him out an additional four games. UPDATE: Lloyd is back on IR.
