Thornton (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Chargers.

Thornton took a blow to the head in the second half, and he is now officially done for the day with a concussion. The wide receiver caught one of two targets for 11 yards prior to his departure.

Chubb rushed nine times for 34 yards and a touchdown and wasn't targeted in the Texans' 20-16 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Chubb once again played a clear second fiddle to Woody Marks (19 carries, one target), but the veteran was able to punch in his third rushing touchdown of the season on a four-yard run with just over five minutes remaining on the second quarter. Marks left the game briefly in the first half due to a foot injury but returned, and Chubb therefore projects to remain in a firm complementary role during a Week 14 road battle against the Chiefs next Sunday night.

Moore (illness) will play in Washington's matchup versus Denver on Sunday.

Moore was added to the injury report earlier in the day but will seemingly play through his illness. However, the 32-year-old likely will see limited action, as both Terry McLaurin and Treylon Burks are back in the lineup.

Thornton is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Thornton caught one pass (on two targets) for 11 yards before exiting the game, and he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Jack Bech and Alex Bachman are slated for more offensive snaps for as long as Thornton is out of the game.

Higgins brought in all five targets for 65 yards in the Texans' 20-16 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Higgins tied for second on the Texans in receptions while also checking in as the runner-up to his teammate in receiving yards on the afternoon. The rookie had flashed plenty of chemistry with fill-in quarterback Davis Mills over the previous three games -- Higgins posted a 13-135-2 line over that span -- so it was particularly encouraging for fantasy managers to see Higgins establish a new single-game career-high yardage total with C.J. Stroud back under center. Higgins should remain an essential part of the air attack in a Week 14 road showdown against the Chiefs next Sunday night.

Tagovailoa completed 12 of 23 passes for 157 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while rushing four times for four yards in the Dolphins' 21-17 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Tagovailoa's middling numbers tell the tale of a low-volume, inefficient day for the Dolphins' air attack, one that saw the veteran signal-caller finish with his seventh sub-200-yard tally of the season and lowest figure since Week 7. Tagovailoa also extended his touchdown drought to two games, and he's gone without a scoring toss in four of his last six contests overall. Given recent performances and what could be inclement early-December weather in New York, Tagovailoa doesn't profile as a particularly appealing fantasy option in a Week 14 road clash with the Jets next Sunday.

Waddle brought in three of six targets for 40 yards in the Dolphins' 21-17 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Waddle finished with the second-most receiving yards on the afternoon for the Dolphins after a slow start, and he also set the pace in targets. Waddle's yardage total, his lowest since Week 7, wasn't as extraordinary when considering Tua Tagovailoa passed for only 157 yards overall on the day. Waddle should remain a key part of the air attack in a Week 14 road matchup against the Jets.

Brissett completed 29 of 40 passes for 301 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while adding three carries for 16 yards in the Cardinals' 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Brissett put together another impressive statistical showing in the return of Marvin Harrison from a two-game absence due to an appendectomy. Brissett connected with his No. 1 wideout on six occasions for 69 yards and he spread the ball around to seven different pass catchers overall. The veteran signal-caller had the ball in his hands with a chance to drive the Cardinals into position for a potential game-tying field goal late in the fourth quarter, but Brissett threw incomplete on consecutive plays to snuff out that possibility and turn the ball over on downs. Despite Sunday's loss, Brissett has effectively moved the offense each week, and considering Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Sunday that Kyler Murray (IR, foot), despite being eligible to have his practice window opened this coming week, still isn't fully recovered, Brissett appears highly likely to remain the starter in a Week 14 home matchup against the Rams next Sunday.

Pierce recorded five receptions on four targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.

The Colts distributed targets evenly among their pass catchers, but Pierce had the benefit of consistently working as a deep threat. Four of his five receptions went for at least 18 yards, including a 19-yard touchdown catch midway through the second quarter -- his second of the season. Pierce has at least 70 receiving yards in four of his last six games and has emerged as one of Daniel Jones' most reliable pass catchers.

Davis didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Falcons.

Davis didn't register a rushing attempt and was targeted just once while Breece Hall led Jets running backs with 19 carries and two targets. As long as Hall's healthy, Davis is unlikely to earn many touches in Week 14 against the Dolphins.
