Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) is "good to go" for the Week 12 game against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Hurts received some extra treatment on his ankle on Wednesday and was listed as limited in practice, but he returned to a full practice session on Thursday and was never expected to be in danger of missing the Week 12 contest. Although he did score his 11th rushing touchdown of the year (leads all QBs) in last Thursday night's win over the division-rival Washington Commanders, Hurts was overshadowed by running back Saquon Barkley and will be looking to bounce back in a plus matchup against LA in primetime. The 26-year-old signal-caller is the QB3 in overall fantasy points through 11 weeks and is a must-start in all fantasy lineups. There's a good chance he'll score another TD on the ground this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) returned to full participation in Thursday's practice, as expected, after he was limited on Wednesday. Hurts tweaked his ankle a little bit a week ago in the win over the division-rival Washington Commanders and was receiving a little extra maintenance for it on Wednesday. The 26-year-old was never in any doubt to play in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football and should remain locked into all starting fantasy lineups as a game-changing, elite QB1. Hurts will be looking for a bounce-back performance after running back Saquon Barkley stole the show last week. The Rams defense has been a plus matchup for opposing QBs in terms of fantasy points, although they have yet to allow a rushing TD to a QB all year. In the last six games, Hurts has thrown for eight TDs and one pick and has rushed for nine TDs.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (lower body) is being listed as limited on the team's practice report on Wednesday, according to a source. Wednesday was the final day of a strengthening program geared towards Hurts' lower body. He's expected to practice in full on Thursday and Friday and play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. The 26-year-old had a down Week 11 with 221 passing yards and no touchdowns, but he did manage to rush for 39 yards and a touchdown. Especially because of the Eagle's propensity to go for QB sneaks at the goal line, Hurts is an elite, must-start QB1 in fantasy each and every week. Hurts should bounce back on Sunday night against a shaky Rams defense. He comes into Week 12 as the QB3 in overall fantasy points through 11 weeks, behind only Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has posted mixed results this season, ranking inside the top-10 fantasy running backs in half of his games but also turning in three performances outside the top 40. Stevenson has struggled with efficiency this year, tallying a career-low 3.8 yards per carry. On the other hand, he has developed a nose for the end zone, posting a career-high seven touchdowns through just 10 contests. In addition to his touchdown tally so far, Stevenson's previous matchup against Miami resulted in an overall RB5 finish -- he rushed for 89 yards, caught four passes, and scored a touchdown in his last time facing the Dolphins. Miami has been strong against the pass, but they're softer against the run, surrendering the 10th-most fantasy points and fifth-most total touchdowns to opposing running backs. The 26-year-old has a good chance to find the end zone, and he boasts legitimate top-12 upside once again.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 73 yards on 20 carries during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He also caught all four of his targets for an additional 16 receiving yards. Although the Patriots' lead back saw a heavy workload on Sunday afternoon, he demonstrated relatively low efficiency and failed to find the end zone. Fantasy managers will hope that he can bounce back and snap his two-week scoreless streak next Sunday against the Miami Dolphins.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson ranks as a low-end fantasy RB2 heading into Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. While Stevenson has struggled with efficiency lately and has seen his fantasy value become largely dependent on touchdowns, the Patriots' lead back has firm control on his role and continues to be a high-volume option on offense. Just last week, he touched the ball 21 times, salvaging a fantasy-relevant performance despite failing to find the end zone. This week, he'll be in a decent position to contribute significant yardage, catch passes, and perhaps score a touchdown against a Rams defense allowing mediocre results to opposing running backs in 2024. Stevenson is a fringe top-24 fantasy running back at the moment.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin posted his worst outing of the season last Thursday evening but should be poised to return to fantasy stardom in Week 12 facing the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 11, McLaurin brought in just one of his two targets for ten yards. Before this disappointing showing, McLaurin has averaged a stellar 17.8 PPR points per game with 84.0 yards and 4.9 receptions per game since Week 3. During this stretch, the Ohio State product saw an impressive 6.8 targets per game. Operating as the clear top wideout in the DMV, McLaurin should be in a great position to return to his high-end WR2 status, facing a Dallas secondary that has allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught just one of two targets for 10 yards during Thursday's Week 11 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. It was a painfully unproductive performance from McLaurin, but he still managed to lead the Commanders' wide receivers in targets and yardage. The veteran receiver's streak of scoring 14-plus fantasy points (PPR) has ended at eight games. He'll look to bounce back as a mid-to-high fantasy WR2 heading into next week against the Dallas Cowboys.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin should be poised for another productive showing on Thursday evening against the Philadelphia Eagles. Since Week 3, McLaurin has been one of the top wideouts in fantasy as he has averaged 17.8 PPR points per game during this span while scoring six total touchdowns. In addition, he has seen 6.8 targets per game in the stretch, with 84.0 yards per game. Last weekend, McLaurin tallied over 100+ scrimmage yards for the fourth time this season. Even though he will face a tough Philadelphia secondary that has allowed the 12th-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts, this game should open up given how explosive both offenses can be, which sets up McLaurin well for another strong outing.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates aims to maintain his consistent scoring as the team faces the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12. In the Lions' 52-6 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars, Bates converted his sole field goal attempt and all seven extra points. This season, Detroit's offense has been prolific, scoring over 40 points in four of ten games and never falling below 20 points, providing Bates with ample scoring opportunities. He leads the league with 39 extra points made on 40 attempts and remains perfect on field goals, hitting all 15 attempts. Bates has scored at least eight fantasy points in seven games and achieved double-digit points in five, making him a reliable fantasy option heading into the matchup against Indianapolis.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates delivered another strong performance in Week 11, converting his lone field goal attempt and all seven extra points in a 52-6 win over the Jaguars. Bates remains perfect on field goals this season, going 15-for-15, while leading the league with 39 extra points on 40 attempts. His consistent production continues to shine as part of Detroit's high-powered offense. Heading into Sunday night, Bates ranks as the K3 for the week and has scored 12 or more fantasy points in four of his last six games. He remains a reliable fantasy starter heading into Week 12 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates heads into a favorable Week 11 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars as a solid fantasy option. He remains perfect on field goals this season, converting all 14 attempts, including two critical long-distance kicks in the Week 10 victory over the Texans. While head coach Dan Campbell's aggressive fourth-down strategies may limit Bates' field goal opportunities, the Lions' offensive firepower ensures a steady flow of extra point attempts, with Bates successfully making 32 out of 33 so far. Given Detroit's league-leading projected team total for the week, Bates is poised to deliver strong fantasy production against a Jaguars defense allowing over 26 points per game.

This Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams presents a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option as he faces the Minnesota Vikings. After a solid performance in Week 11 against Green Bay -- Williams completed 23 of 31 passes for 231 yards and added 70 rushing yards -- he's looking to build on his momentum. Williams demonstrated improved poise in that game, getting the ball out quicker and evading pressure thanks to a more efficient scheme under the new offensive coordinator. This quicker release helped keep Williams upright against a Packers defense that's no slouch. However, Williams faces a much tougher test in Week 12 against a Vikings defense that blitzes at the second-highest rate in the league and has been tough on quarterbacks all season. Minnesota ranks fourth in points allowed per game and fifth in EPA per pass, making this a difficult matchup for any passer. If you're stuck with a quarterback on a bye or dealing with injuries, Williams could be a potential desperation play, but Minnesota's aggressive defense may cap his ceiling. In single-QB leagues, exploring other options is wise unless you're in a deeper format or need a true boom-or-bust gamble.

This Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams faced a tough test against the Green Bay Packers in Week 11. While Williams showed flashes of his potential, it was still a mixed performance. He completed 23 of 31 passes for 231 yards but, once again, failed to find the end zone, extending his streak without a passing touchdown. On a positive note, Williams added 70 rushing yardshis highest total of the seasonshowing off his mobility and ability to make plays with his legs. The recent change at offensive coordinator, with Thomas Brown replacing Shane Waldron, seemed to spark a slight resurgence in the Bears' offense. However, despite Williams' improvements, his inability to score touchdowns keeps him relegated to QB2 in fantasy leagues. The Bears won't have much time to regroup as they welcome the tough Minnesota Vikings to Soldier Field next Sunday. Minnesota's defense, led by Brian Flores, will present another significant challenge for the young quarterback.

This Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams presents a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option as he prepares to take on the Green Bay Packers. After a tough outing in Week 10 against the New England Patriots, where Williams completed just 16 of 30 passes for a meager 120 yards and failed to throw any touchdowns, he's looking to redeem himself and showcase his potential. Adding to the drama, the Bears made a significant move this week by firing offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, who was just nine games into his tenure with the rookie quarterback. Waldron's struggles to establish an effective offensive game plan prompted the change, and now the Bears are hoping a new direction will help unlock Williams' playmaking ability. The team promoted passing game coordinator Thomas Brown to replace Waldron, which signals a shift in offensive philosophy. However, it's important to note that the Bears' offensive line is still banged up and likely won't be at full strength on Sunday, following a dismal performance where they allowed nine sacks in their previous game. Given the uncertainty surrounding the offense and the ongoing issues with the offensive line, starting Williams this week carries significant risk. Proceed with caution, especially in leagues where you need a more reliable QB option.

Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers has a road matchup against their division-rival Chicago Bears on tap this Sunday. Akers has been far from efficient with his rush attempts over the last two weeks (23/63[2.74 YPC]), but he had at least 12 touches in each appearance and got into the end zone for the third time this season in Week 11's victory over the Tennessee Titans. It's unclear whether his workload has been due to backfield mate Aaron Jones (ribs) and his injury. Still, he's seen his snap share rise in each of the previous three contests. Chicago has been a decent matchup for fantasy running backs, allowing 17.4 points to the position -; a bottom-half of the league number. The 25-year-old's workload could be spotty, but he has a good shot at being effective with his touches against a unit allowing 4.8 yards per carry on the season. He's RotoBaller's PPR RB34 in this week's rankings.

Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers will not be a recommended option this Sunday when his team squares off against the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. The former Florida State Seminole garnered his highest touch total of the season in last weekend's victory over the Jaguars when he received 14 of them (13 rushes) with backfield mate Aaron Jones (ribs) briefly tending to an injury. It appears that Akers has taken over Minnesota's RB2 role over the last few weeks, superseding Ty Chandler, who previously held that title. Even with his new-found promotion, the 25-year-old is little more than a handcuff unless Jones is forced to miss time. Akers ranks as RotoBaller's RB42 in PPR formats for Week 11.

Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers rushed 13 times for 38 yards and brought in his lone target for an additional nine yards through the air in Week 10's 12-7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Akers didn't get his first touch until the second quarter but saw eight of them after backfield mate Aaron Jones (chest) exited the game in the second half after picking up an injury. Jones returned for Minnesota's final two drives, which is seemingly good news for his future status. However, fantasy managers will want to watch how he looks over the next week of practice. If he were to miss time, Akers would slot into the lead role in the Vikings backfield. The 25-year-old did share touches with fellow running back Ty Chandler (four rushes, 18 yards), but the former is the preferred option for the team. Minnesota will get another staunch test next Sunday when they square off against the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Dylan Laube will get his second chance for backfield work for his team in Week 12. Injuries to both of the teams top-2 backs, Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle), have left them almost certain to be held out of the contest. Laube will join lead back Ameer Abdullah to form some kind of committee. There haven't been many helpful reports on how much work he'll get, but the team would be well-served to give him some work and see if he can bring any juice. LV's offense hasn't been good this season, and the running game has been the worst in the league statistically. Such an inefficient ground attack warrants trying out new things. Laube is worth stashing in deep, highly competitive fantasy football leagues, but too risky to start for now. His only carry this season resulted in a lost fumble.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back Dylan Laube has been a healthy scratch since losing a fumble in the Oct. 13 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he could be a big part of the game plan in Week 12 against the division-rival Denver Broncos on Sunday with both Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quadriceps) in danger of being held out due to injuries sustained in the Week 11 loss to the Miami Dolphins. Along with Laube, Ameer Abdullah would also have a bigger role in the backfield if both Mattison and White are inactive. The 24-year-old fumbled on the first rushing attempt of his career, and he hasn't gotten another chance since then. We wouldn't recommend Laube for starting fantasy lineups if both Mattison and White are out, as the Raiders rank dead last in rushing yards per game (75.2), while the Broncos have allowed only 98.6 rushing yards per game (sixth-fewest in the NFL).
