Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (finger) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice session. Tuten suffered a right-finger injury during Sunday's win over the New York Jets. The rookie running back is likely going to require surgery to repair his right-finger injury. If that happens, Tuten is expected to miss multiple weeks of action and possibly the final three weeks of the regular season. His absence would likely mean a larger role for Travis Etienne Jr. in the backfield. Rookie LeQuint Allen Jr. will also be asked to step up as the backup to Etienne. Allen has been quiet with 81 yards on 18 attempts this season as the third-string back. There's a chance he offers deep-league fantasy value if Tuten is unable to play against the Denver Broncos in Week 16.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown has made his voice heard about his frustration in Philly. Brown has been visibly frustrated with the team's inability to get him the ball this season. The organization could decide to move on from the disgruntled wideout this offseason. The 28-year-old is in his prime and could get the Eagles a haul in return. The Eagles have had success, even when Brown isn't heavily involved. Brown saw only two targets during last week's blowout win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but he caught them both for 41 yards and a touchdown, his fourth score in the last four games. The Eagles could move Brown and upgrade other areas of their roster with the freed-up salary cap space. It's certainly something the organization needs to at least consider this offseason.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has made headlines with some of his recent press conferences, and Wednesday's session with the media was no exception. When asked if there was any world he could imagine where he was not the starting quarterback of the Bengals in 2026, he answered clearly and definitively, "I couldn't see that. No." However, when asked if he's ever thought about it throughout his career, his answer rang more ominous, stating, "You think about a lot of things," and wrapping up the exchange with, "Crazy things can happen." As the team's franchise quarterback, all of Burrow's words are going to be carefully dissected, and the recent line of questioning he's faced has certainly induced noteworthy soundbites. Still, for fantasy managers who managed to escape a lackluster Week 15 performance against the Ravens, Burrow faces a favorable Dolphins defense in Week 16 and should be able to bounce back for the fantasy semifinals, especially if Tee Higgins (concussion), who was limited on Wednesday, is able to return after a one-game absence.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore is coming off a 69-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Browns that was good enough to make him a top-five fantasy wide receiver for the third time in the last seven weeks. The Bears now head into a Week 16 divisional matchup with the Packers, and with the rest of their receiving corps at less than full health, Moore could be in line for another impactful fantasy outing. Neither Rome Odunze (foot) nor Luther Burden III (ankle) has been able to participate in the first two practices of the week, while Cole Kmet (ankle, knee) was limited both Monday and Tuesday. Moore had his worst outing of the season in Week 14 against this same Packers defense, finishing the game with negative receiving yardage, but he heads into the Saturday rematch as RotoBaller's WR 39 for the week and should rise higher if Odunze and Burden are unable to suit up.

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (rest, knee) was limited on Wednesday after taking a scary-looking hit to the knee during Monday night's loss to the Steelers. Waller has played in each of the last three games since missing five weeks with a pectoral injury, and began each of those weeks with a limited/rest practice. The additional designation of the knee injury is new for Week 16 and will need to be monitored, though he seemed to finish the game without limitation, catching two late touchdown passes. Waller will be one of the most difficult start/sit decisions for fantasy semifinals. The Dolphins face a historically bad Bengals defense, but the Wednesday news that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will be benched in favor of 7th-round rookie Quinn Ewers casts a considerable shadow over Miami's offensive outlook. Waller is RotoBaller's TE8 for Week 16, but the new injury designation may be the deciding factor for many fantasy managers to pivot to another streamer.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) was limited on Wednesday after returning from a six-game absence to play and dominate in the team's Week 15 loss to the Falcons. After missing nearly two months with a broken collarbone, Evans caught six of 10 targets on Thursday night for 132 yards. While he played only 38 of 69 total offensive snaps, his 28 routes run were second-most on the team behind Chris Godwin, while his 4.71 yards per route run trailed only Puka Nacua and Luther Burden III across the league. At 32 years old, with a serious list of injuries sustained this season alone, the limited practice to begin the week is not unexpected, but fantasy managers will still need to monitor his status before a pivotal Week 16 matchup with the Panthers.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (groin) was limited on Wednesday by the same groin injury that held him out of Week 15's win over the Chiefs. Johnston was a late addition to last week's injury report, logging a limited practice on Friday before missing his second game of the season. After a red-hot start to the year, Johnston has struggled with consistency, making him one of the more difficult start/sit decisions for most of the fantasy season. If he is able to ramp up his practice participation, he remains in play as a desperation start for the fantasy semifinals, as the Chargers face a Cowboys defense that ranks dead last in points surrendered above expectation to the wide receiver position.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been listed as doubtful to play on Thursday night against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks in Week 16, according to John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Adams aggravated a hamstring issue he's been battling for weeks now in Sunday's win over the Detroit Lions, and on a short week, he's unlikely to be able to go. The 32-year-old veteran wideout is a big loss for a high-scoring Rams offense and for fantasy managers, as he currently leads the league with 14 touchdown receptions in 14 games played. It will be Adams' first missed game of 2025, with his next chance to return coming in Week 17 against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football on Dec. 29. With Adams likely out on Thursday, Tutu Atwell, Jordan Whittington, and Konata Mumpfield will look to soak up targets behind top wideout Puka Nacua against a tough Seahawks defense.

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams (neck) was listed as a limited participant due to a neck injury on Wednesday, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. Williams suffered a neck/shoulder injury in the Sunday night loss to the Minnesota Vikings shortly after a touchdown plunge on the team's first drive of the game in the first quarter. The 25-year-old sat out the rest of the first half, but he eventually returned in the second half and finished with 15 carries for 91 yards and the one touchdown while playing only 28% of the snaps. Williams should be able to play this weekend against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, but fantasy managers will want to continue monitoring his status leading up to Sunday's game. If Williams is limited at all or out, Malik Davis, who had 10 touches for 37 yards and a touchdown in Week 15, would become Dallas' lead back.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. A hamstring issue kept Bryant from playing in the Week 15 win over the Green Bay Packers. Head coach Sean Payton said the 23-year-old could have played if it were a playoff game. Now that Bryant is back to practicing in full, he should be active this Sunday versus the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars, barring a setback in the next two days. Bryant's impending return is bad news for second-year wideout Troy Franklin, who caught all six of his targets for 85 yards and a touchdown against Green Bay. Before his hamstring injury, Bryant was seeing more involvement in Denver's passing attack, catching 12 of 17 targets for 156 yards in Weeks 11, 13, and 14. If he's back this weekend, Bryant profiles as a WR4/flex option in deeper fantasy formats. He has just one trip to the end zone in his first 13 NFL contests.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (personal) was not present at the team's practice on Wednesday due to a personal matter, according to the team's official website. Reed should be back at practice on Thursday and play on Saturday against the division-rival Chicago Bears in Week 16. The 25-year-old has played in just four games in 2025 due to a fractured foot and broken collarbone. Since returning in Week 14, Reed has nine catches on 10 targets for 86 yards while also having two rushing attempts for 22 yards. Quarterback Jordan Love continues to spread the ball around to Green Bay's many receiving options, but Reed will remain an integral part of the offense in the final three weeks of the season. It looks like fellow wideout Christian Watson (chest) will play on Saturday, but Reed will still have high-end WR3/flex value for fantasy managers against the Bears.

From RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) was listed as a non-participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday, according to the team's official website. Kamara still has not practiced since spraining his MCL in Week 12. Additionally, rookie Devin Neal injured his hamstring in the Week 15 win over the Carolina Panthers and has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the visiting New York Jets. It means that if Kamara doesn't make rapid progress over the next two days, Audric Estime and Evan Hull figure to split backfield duties for the Saints in Week 16. The fact that the Saints ruled Neal out so early in the week could be a sign that Kamara is nearing a return, but he will need to return to practice in the next few days. Estime handled 36% of the snaps to Hull's 32% last week and had three carries for 11 yards and three catches for 39 yards. Estime is the better waiver-wire pickup with Neal injured, but at best, he'll profile as a low-upside RB3/flex in fantasy this weekend if Kamara misses another game.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) was kept at home on Wednesday due to flu-like symptoms, according to Cordell Woodland of 105.7 The Fan. Jackson has been a regular DNP in Wednesday practices this year, but mainly due to nagging lower-body injuries. This week, he's under the weather. The 28-year-old two-time MVP has been held out of practice early in the week in recent weeks with an ankle injury, but he said last week that he has been improving. He should be ready to go by Sunday night for a showdown against the New England Patriots, where he'll be more of a low-end QB1 in fantasy football. Jackson looked a little more like himself in last week's shutout win over the Bengals, but he completed only eight passes and ran the ball twice. He hasn't thrown for over 300 yards at all in 2025 and has had more than one touchdown pass just once in his last six contests. On top of that, Jackson only has two rushing touchdowns this season.

From RotoBaller

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (knee) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice session, according to the team. Kincaid played in each of the past two games after dealing with knee and hamstring injuries in prior weeks, but he will begin this week with a DNP. The Bills could be managing his workload during the practice week to ensure he is ready to go on gameday. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status in practice on Thursday and Friday in case he suffered a setback that would cause him to miss some time. Injuries seem to be a lingering issue for the 26-year-old tight end, as he played only 36% of the snaps in the Week 15 win against the New England Patriots, catching three of four targets for 34 yards. If Kincaid is unable to play on Sunday versus the Cleveland Browns, Dawson Knox would be in line for an expanded receiving role and could continue his recent stretch of production.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (illness) was under the weather on Wednesday and did not practice, according to Clarence Hill Jr. of All City Dallas. Lamb isn't feeling well to begin the practice week, but he should be just fine for Sunday's Week 16 game against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, where he'll remain a must-start fantasy football receiver. The 26-year-old four-time Pro Bowler hasn't been quite as good as teammate George Pickens in 2025, but he's been a top-10 fantasy wideout in terms of half-PPR points per game (14.7). In his 10 games played, Lamb has 63 receptions on 99 targets for 976 yards and three touchdowns. He's had over 100 receiving yards in each of the last three games and should reach the 1,000-yard mark for the fifth straight season.

Denver Broncos rookie running back R.J. Harvey (ribs) is participating in practice on Wednesday, according to Romi Bean of CBS Colorado. Harvey picked up a rib injury late in Denver's Week 15 win over the Green Bay Packers, but he seems to have avoided a major injury that would cost him any time. Head coach Sean Payton wasn't concerned with the injury, saying that "he's doing good" and should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Payton noted to himself after the Packers game to get Jaleel McLaughlin more touches to manage Harvey's workload, but it's promising news that the rookie won't miss any time. He's been one of the best running backs in fantasy football since taking over lead duties with J.K. Dobbins (foot) out for the year, ranking as the RB6 in PPR points per game over the past four games. Harvey will project favorably again in Week 16 versus the Jaguars.

From RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Devin Neal (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New York Jets, according to Sara Palczewski of Louisiana First News. Neal left early during the Week 15 win over the Carolina Panthers due to a hamstring injury, and he'll be forced to miss at least one game. The rookie sixth-rounder had started three straight games for the Saints in place of an injured Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) and totaled 32 yards and a touchdown on eight touches before exiting. With Kamara still not practicing on Wednesday, the Saints will rely on the duo of Audric Estime and Evan Hull to lead the backfield. Estime would be the preferred option in fantasy football, having totalled three carries for 11 yards and three catches (three targets) for 39 yards in Neal's absence last week, compared to Hull's four carries for 12 yards. Keep in mind, though, that rookie quarterback Tyler Shough could continue to take away valuable rushing attempts in this Saints offense.

From RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New York Jets, Sara Palczewski of Louisiana First News reports. Vele has been considered week-to-week after suffering a shoulder injury in the fourth quarter of last week's win over the Carolina Panthers. He caught five of six targets for 69 yards up until that point. The 28-year-old reportedly avoided a major injury, but he could still end up missing the rest of the regular season with only three games remaining. Vele had been establishing a solid connection with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, recording 16 catches for 202 yards and a touchdown over the past three games. His absence will lead to more opportunities for top wideout Chris Olave, in addition to Kevin Austin Jr. and Mason Tipton against the Jets in Week 16.

The Dallas Cowboys announced on Wednesday that they have opened the 21-day practice window for rookie running back Phil Mafah (shoulder). Mafah has missed his entire first season in the NFL so far due to a shoulder injury that landed him on Injured Reserve in August. The 23-year-old will return to practice this week, though, and he could be in play to join the Cowboys offense in the final three weeks of the season. The Clemson product would provide insurance in Dallas' backfield, but he probably wouldn't be anything more than the RB3 behind Javonte Williams and Malik Davis if he plays to close out the 2025 campaign. The Cowboys must officially activate Mafah from IR if they want him active this Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Mafah had 1,115 rushing yards, 103 receiving yards, and eight total touchdowns in his final year in college in 2024.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said that he plans to play quarterback Dak Prescott when asked if he would want to see backup quarterback Joe Milton III play if the Cowboys are eliminated from playoff contention. "I want to win, so the plan would be to play Dak," Schottenheimer said. It's not a surprising development to hear that Prescott will remain the starter for the final three games of the regular season, even with Dallas' playoff odds at less than 1%. The 32-year-old has put together one of the best seasons of his career, completing 68.4% of his passes for a league-leading 3,931 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions while adding 45 carries for 140 yards and two more scores on the ground. He remains a top-five QB option in fantasy for the Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
