Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange (hip) has been activated off injured reserve and will play in Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Strange had been sidelined due to a hip injury since Week 6. The Jaguars' offense has been desperately awaiting Strange's return, with Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) having been out of the lineup over the last couple of weeks and rookie Travis Hunter (knee) out for the remainder of the season. Before his injury, Strange was quarterback Trevor Lawrence's go-to target and should slide back into that role. He caught 20 passes for 204 yards over five games before the injury. Strange will face a stingy Cardinals' defense that has surrendered the eighth fewest receiving touchdowns this season. Despite the tough matchup, Strange is a viable tight end option in deeper fantasy leagues for fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington has maintained a sizable snap share within his offense, but he continues to be a low-volume option. He has played at least 40% of the snaps in every game he has been healthy for this season, but he hasn't surpassed 6.2 fantasy points (PPR) in a single contest so far. In fact, over his last two full games, he has just one target, one catch, and nine receiving yards. The Texas product has also started to see more special teams opportunities, returning a pair of kicks in Week 11. Now, even in a relatively favorable matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12, Whittington is not a reliable fantasy option. He ranks as the overall WR89 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings. As long as Puka Nacua and Davante Adams are healthy, Whittington can be left on waivers.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams is coming off a bizarre contest against the Seattle Seahawks in which he caught one of eight targets for one yard and one touchdown. The stat line was quite frustrating, but he salvaged his fantasy performance with a trip to the end zone, scoring for a fourth consecutive game. Fortunately, his target share indicates that he should have no trouble bouncing back against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12. Plus, quarterback Matthew Stafford is putting together an MVP season, so he's expected to re-establish his strong connection with Adams on Sunday. Furthermore, the Bucs have allowed the 15th-most fantasy points, 11th-most receptions, and eighth-most receiving yards to opposing receivers in 2025. Adams ranks as the overall WR6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings. Managers should start him with confidence in all leagues.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier notched his seventh touchdown in 10 games last week despite totaling just 16 yards from scrimmage (three rushes for 10 yards, two catches for six yards). The touchdowns have made the 25-year-old fantasy relevant this year, but as frequent as they've become, he still owns an extremely low floor, scoring a total of five fantasy points in the four games in which he did not find the end zone. Sunday's matchup against the Saints should be competitive, and the BYU product tends to stay involved in those types of game scripts, however, with the Falcons owning an implied point total of 19 points, there may not be much scoring to be found in this game. The Saints are middle of the road in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs and have been stout lately, limiting opposing rushers to just 3.5 yards per carry over the last three games. It only reinforces Allgeier's status as a very risky RB4/Flex option in Week 12.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues to be a must-start fantasy option for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 24-year-old has put together another phenomenal season; he ranks as the overall WR3 in fantasy scoring this season, and he would be in the running for the top spot if he hadn't missed time due to injury earlier this year. Despite playing fewer than two-thirds of the offensive snaps in each of his last three games, Nacua has totaled 19 catches, 234 receiving yards, and two receiving touchdowns during that span. This week, he gets a relatively favorable matchup against the Bucs, who have allowed the 15th-most fantasy points, 11th-most receptions, and eighth-most receiving yards to opposing receivers in 2025. Nacua ranks as the overall WR2 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to factor into the team's plans as they prepare for Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Corum is averaging 12.8 carries over his last four games, but his efficiency has been far from desired. Last week, he had just 1.3 yards per carry and also lost two yards on his lone reception. Despite the efficiency concerns, Los Angeles continues to trust him to handle a standalone role behind Kyren Williams. While Williams remains the primary back, Corum has played at least 28% of the snaps in each of his last four games. This week's matchup looks intriguing on paper as the Buccaneers have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025. However, a large portion of those points have occurred in the passing game, and Corum doesn't have much of a receiving role. In fact, the Bucs have allowed the eighth-fewest rushing yards to running backs. As a result, Corum ranks outside the top-36 running back range for Week 12. Specifically, he's the overall RB41 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has been quite productive lately, racking up impressive efficiency and touchdown numbers. Over his last three games, he has four total touchdowns and is averaging a whopping 5.5 yards per carry. He'll have an opportunity to build on this streak during Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs, with a large chunk of that productivity coming in the passing game. Tampa Bay has also surrendered the most receiving yards to running backs this season. While Williams is more of a rusher than receiver, he could capitalize on a favorable opportunity to contribute in the receiving game, all while maintaining strong efficiency and scoring tendencies on the ground. He enters this week as the overall RB11 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington is looking to rebound against the Arizona Cardinals from a rough Week 11 outing against the Los Angeles Chargers. Washington was held to two catches for 20 yards on two targets. The 23-year-old had scored over 17 fantasy points in his previous two games and scored two touchdowns. Washington will see an extended role again in the Jaguars' passing attack with teammate Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) being ruled out due to an ankle injury. Heading into Week 12, Washington will face a scrappy Cardinals secondary that has allowed the eighth fewest receiving touchdowns this season. It is also worth noting Washington's talent on special teams, scoring two punt return touchdowns since Week 4 this season. Washington will be a viable flex option and is ranked 74th overall at RotoBaller heading into Week 12.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (shoulder) was cleared from Friday's final injury report and will be active in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Etienne was a limited participant in practice this week due to a shoulder injury. The 26-year-old has been a borderline RB1 over the previous three weeks, scoring three touchdowns and getting over 16 carries a game during that stretch. Etienne is RotoBaller's 13th-ranked running back in Week 12 against a middle-of-the-pack Cardinals run defense. The Cardinals gave up 95 rushing yards and surrendered two rushing touchdowns last week to the San Francisco 49ers. Etienne will also have to split carries with rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten, who had a career high of 15 carries last week. To this point, Etienne has been able to fend off Tuten and be the RB1 in the Jaguars' backfield and will be a reliable high-end RB2 against a non-threatening Cardinals run defense.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) was listed as limited in practice every day this week, but was cleared from the injury report and will play in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Tuten finally had his breakout game of the season in Week 11 against the Chargers, handling 15 carries for 74 yards and a touchdown in the win. He injured his ankle during the game, which forced him to exit early, but it doesn't seem to be an issue. The rookie fourth-rounder played a season high 42.9% of the snaps and out-carried fellow running back Travis Etienne Jr. 15 to 12 before leaving. The dynamic rookie's role should continue to expand in the coming weeks as he has looked great in his opportunities. Etienne followed a similar pattern to Tuten this week in practice as he was limited with a shoulder injury, but heads into Sunday without an injury designation. Etienne should still serve as the RB1, but Tuten has earned more work, and it could wind up being close to a 50-50 split on Sunday in Arizona. Tuten ranks as RotoBaller's RB30 in PPR formats for Week 12.

Despite being benched for the opening series after missing curfew, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens recorded nine catches for 144 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets in Week 11 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 24-year-old is having a breakout season, as he's hauled in 58 receptions for 908 yards and seven scores on 83 targets across his first 10 games of 2025. Pickens and the Cowboys have a difficult matchup in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Through 11 weeks, the Eagles are tied with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs for the fewest passing touchdowns allowed (nine) in the NFL. Philadelphia held Pickens to just three catches for 30 yards on four targets in his first matchup against them this season in Week 1. However, Pickens has been surging of late and has earned at least nine targets in four out of his last five games played. Despite the tough matchup, he profiles as a high-end fantasy WR2 in Week 12 against the Eagles.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland has had back-to-back games under five fantasy points for the first time this season. The 26-year-old went one for two with making an extra point attempt during Week 11's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, making a field goal within the 30 and missing his first field goal on the year from 50-plus yards out. Ryland and the Cardinals will face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12, and they have allowed the 10th most passing yards this season. The Cardinals should be able to move the ball through the air to get Ryland into field goal range quite consistently. Fantasy managers can insert Ryland into lineups as a viable streaming option in Week 12.

Across seven games in 2025, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has recorded 40 catches for 557 yards and two touchdowns on 61 targets. Even with fellow Dallas wideout George Pickens in the midst of a breakout season, Lamb has earned double-digit targets in four out of the six games where he has played all four quarters. In Week 12, Lamb gets a difficult matchup when the Cowboys host the Philadelphia Eagles. For the season, the Eagles are tied with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs for the fewest passing touchdowns allowed (nine). Philadelphia has also played some of its best defense of late, holding the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions to a combined 16 points over the last two weeks. Still, in his first matchup of the season against the Eagles in Week 1, Lamb recorded seven catches for 110 yards on 13 targets and could have had an even bigger game if not for a couple of uncharacteristic drops. He remains a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 12 against his division rival.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have limited quarterback Trevor Lawrence's pass volume over the past two weeks. Lawrence attempted 23 passes in Jacksonville's Week 10 loss to the Texans, then 22 in last week's win over the Chargers. He's thrown a touchdown and an interception in both games, while making an impact on the ground, scoring his fifth rushing touchdown of the season against the Chargers. From Weeks 1 through 9, the Jaguars leaned slightly more pass-heavy, ranking ninth in pass rate over expectation (+4%). In the past two weeks, they've dropped to 23rd with a -4.2% pass rate over expectation, per Fantasy Points Data Suite. The Jaguars have started to rely more on their dynamic running back duo of Travis Etienne Jr. and rookie Bhayshul Tuten, which may limit Lawrence's fantasy upside. However, he draws a matchup in Week 12 against an Arizona Cardinals defense that just allowed 41 points to Brock Purdy and the 49ers last week. Lawrence ranks as RotoBaller's QB16 for Week 12.

Across 10 games this season, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams has recorded 809 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 161 carries. The 25-year-old has dominated backfield touches in Dallas all year long and should continue to do so even after the Cowboys signed running back Malik Davis to the active roster on Saturday. Dallas has a difficult matchup in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles, who have not allowed an opposing offense to score 10 points since Week 8. Still, Philadelphia's biggest strength is against the pass, as they rank 18th in yards per carry allowed (4.3) and 21st in rushing touchdowns allowed (11) among NFL defenses. In his first matchup of the season against the Eagles in Week 1, Williams recorded 64 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 17 touches. He profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 12.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had a quiet Week 11 with three targetsand two catches for 38 yards, but could be in line for more work in Week 12 against the Saints. Averagingover six targets, four catches, and 43 yards per game in 2025, the 25-year-old could see a couple more looks with teammate Drake London (knee) ruled out. In Week 8, when London was also absent due to injury, the 6-foot-6 tight end garnered a team-leading nine targets, catching all nine for 59 yards. Kirk Cousins was under center for that game, and will be again in Week 12 with Michael Penix Jr. (knee) out for the rest ofthe season. Pitts was veryvolatilelast season with Cousins as the signal caller, recording one catch or fewer in five contests. The Saints rank near the middle in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends, so it's not an overly tough matchup, but there is some uncertainty with how this offense will look with Cousins at quarterback, so the fifth-year pro projects as a low-end TE1 this week.

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Kalel Mullings (ankle) is expected to be activated off of Injured Reserve for the team's Week 12 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. A sixth-round draft pick out of Michigan, Mullings has been sidelined by an ankle injury since Week 3. He'll join a crowded backfield mix in Tennessee that also includes Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears. Pollard and Spears have basically been splitting snaps 50/50 in recent weeks, making the Titans' running back depth chart a difficult one for fantasy managers to sort out. Mullings is unlikely to play a fantasy-relevant role himself, but he could steal a few touches away from both Pollard and Spears, diminishing what has already been underwhelming fantasy production from the two veterans.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini writes that viewers should expect to see a "heavy dose" of Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker in his team's Week 12 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football. The 24-year-old had a breakout game in Week 11, recording 140 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns against the Buffalo Bills. With Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (shoulder, toe) out for at least one more week, Tucker and Rachaad White will handle the backfield work for Tampa Bay in Week 12. Based on Tucker's recent performance and Russini's reporting, it appears that White may be fading into more of a complementary role. Tucker profiles as a high-end RB3/flex option for fantasy managers in a tough matchup against the Rams.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyler Lockett has carved out a meaningful role in the offense after signing with the team on October 27. Lockett began the season with the Tennessee Titans and didn't make an impact with just 10 catches (21 targets) for 70 yards in seven games. The 33-year-old has shown he still has something left in the tank in Las Vegas, totaling more receiving yards (77) in three games with the team. The fantasy upside is still very limited as the third option behind Brock Bowers and Tre Tucker for a Raiders passing attack led by Geno Smith, who has struggled mightily this season. Lockett has some appeal in Week 12 against the Browns in deeper formats, but is best left on the waiver wire in 12-team leagues.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Xavier Restrepo will be active for Sunday's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com. Restrepo will make his NFL debut after being on the practice squad for the first 11 weeks of the season. He will get his first opportunity as a result of Calvin Ridley (leg) being out for the season and rookie Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) being ruled out for Week 12. The undrafted free agent out of the University of Miami will look to make an impact as he takes the field with his college quarterback, Cameron Ward. Restrepo had a monster final season at Miami with Ward, leading the ACC with 1,127 yards and 11 touchdowns and being named a first-team All-American. It remains to be seen how much playing time the rookie will see on Sunday, but he is an intriguing stash candidate in deeper formats and dynasty leagues.
