Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report. Herbert is dealing with an ankle issue, but was able to play through it during Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He looked fine in the pocket, but the ankle issue clearly limited his running ability considering he had zero carries on Sunday. Nonetheless, Herbert figures to be fine for Thursday's Week 16 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The Chargers might limit Herbert in order to keep him fresh, but he should be out there unless he suffers a setback.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert got off to a decent start in Week 15 but struggled throughout the second half in what ended up as a 40-17 loss. Herbert was clearly struggling with his ankle injury despite being removed from the official injury report. He was much less mobile in the pocket and did not record a single rushing attempt. In total, he attempted 33 passes, completing 21 of them for 195 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. The pick was only his second of the year, and could have been avoided if the intended target Quentin Johnston had actually tried to catch the football. Herbert took three sacks and will likely miss practice time this week in hopes of his ankle healing before a quick turnaround for a Thursday Night Football game against the division-rival Denver Broncos. Fantasy managers should definitely keep an eye on Chargers practice reports this week, as backup Taylor Heinicke took the last drive and would be next in line.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle, thigh) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the injury report ahead of a Week 15 game against the Tampa Bay Bucs. Herbert was listed with ankle and thigh injuries throughout the week, starting with a DNP on Wednesday and a limited practice on Thursday. A full practice on Friday got him off the injury report, though. Facing a Bucs defense that is in the top-10 in fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, Herbert is a solid lower-end QB1 option with some upside. Herbert's upside will be directly related to whether or not rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey (knee, shoulder) is able to play.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard has had a quality 2024-25 campaign. He most recently ran for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Week 14 loss to Philadelphia. The 25-year-old also caught four passes. But there is reason to believe he will be even more productive in Sunday's clash with Dallas, considering the Cowboys defense has been a mess all year. Miles Sanders (ankle) and Jonathon Brooks (knee) won't play, and with Raheem Blackshear (chest) questionable, Hubbard is in line for plenty of work in Week 15. Truth be told, he'll still get plenty of touches even if Blackshear is cleared to suit up.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard re-established himself as a premier 2024 halfback in Week 14, rushing for 92 yards and a touchdown on 26 attempts and tallying four catches for 15 yards in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. With rookie Jonathon Brooks (knee) leaving the game in the first quarter, Hubbard took on the full spectrum of backfield workload, coming two carries shy of his season high. While the extent of Brooks' injury is unclear, one could expect Carolina to be very cautious with him as we enter the season's final stretch. Following a gauntlet of tough run defenses, Hubbard and company will face a reeling Dallas squad in Week 15, ranked 27th against running backs.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard will test his legs against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14, who rank third in fewest points allowed to halfbacks. In Week 13, Hubbard had his worst performance since Week 1, recording just 43 yards on 12 carries, no receiving targets, and a game-losing fumble in overtime. The concerns don't stop there, as Hubbard saw just 79% of offensive snaps on Sunday while rookie running back Jonathon Brooks took on a more significant role in the game plan. This was always the preseason concern for Hubbard managers, and it seems their fears could be coming true at an inopportune time. RotoBaller has Hubbard ranked as RB24 for Week 14.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had seemingly no issues against the Los Angeles Chargers defense on Sunday. The veteran wideout gave a somewhat disappointing outing last week, but came ready to play in Week 15. Evans hauled in nine of his 11 targets for 159 yards and two touchdowns in the blowout win. The 31-year-old missed some practice time this week due to a hamstring issue, but it didn't look like it bothered him on Sunday. Evans and quarterback Baker Mayfield have great chemistry together and it showed this weekend. Fantasy managers should continue to lean on Evans as a WR1 for next week's matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. The same Cowboys that just lost top defensive back Trevon Diggs (knee) for the season.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Evans missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday before returning for a limited session on Friday. It appears that was enough for the team to clear Evans for this weekend. The veteran wideout has racked up three straight games of 68 receiving yards or more since returning from injury. He does have a tougher challenge this week against a solid Chargers secondary. Despite that, Evans should be able to produce low-end WR1 value for this Week 15 matchup.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) was seen working on the field at the portion of practice open to the media on Friday after sitting out of practice the two previous days. The Bucs are taking it easy on the 31-year-old veteran late in the year after he previously missed several games due to a hamstring injury in the middle of the season. He also missed two practices last week before suiting up for the Week 14 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Evans played 85 percent of the offensive snaps in that game and hauled in four of his five targets for 69 yards. The matchup against the Bolts won't be as easy, but Evans will continue to be quarterback Baker Mayfield's top target, and he deserves a starting lineup spot in Week 15. Since returning from his hammy injury in Week 12, Evans has 17 catches for 255 yards and a touchdown on 23 targets.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle caught four of his seven targets for a team-best 61 yards during Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Even as the 49ers struggled to mount scoring drives in this primetime divisional battle, Kittle found ways to get involved to salvage his fantasy performance. The 31-year-old now has double-digit fantasy points in point-per-reception scoring in 10 of his 12 games, ranking as the overall TE2 in fantasy football. He's on pace to have his second-best fantasy season ever, giving managers a major boost down the stretch and potentially helping them advance in the fantasy playoffs. Kittle should continue to be started in all leagues when the 49ers take on the Miami Dolphins in Week 16.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle will face the Los Angeles Rams at home in a Week 15 divisional matchup on Thursday night. Last week, Kittle rebounded from his worst performance of the season -; a one-catch night in Buffalo -; to a six-reception, 151-yard game at home in Week 14 versus Chicago. The gregarious University of Iowa product is having one of the best years of his career in 2024, ranking just behind Las Vegas rookie Brock Bowers in total fantasy points despite missing two games. Kittle has done a lot this year to shake his boom/bust reputation, as he's only failed to reach 10 half-PPR points twice this season. The Rams' pass defense hasn't been good overall, which holds true when isolating the tight end position. They have been the 12th-easiest matchup in the NFL to opposing tight ends despite not having to face Kittle in Week 3 when he was out with injury. Fantasy managers should lock Kittle into their lineups for the duration of the fantasy playoffs. In Week 15, he's a top-2 option.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle resumed his excellent season during a 38-13 home victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. A week after posting his worst fantasy game of the year, Kittle caught all six of his targets for a team-leading 151 yards receiving. Most of Kittle's fantasy value this year has lied in his ability to consistently generate touchdowns, but Kittle was plenty valuable on Sunday despite not finding the end zone. During the first half in particular, it seemed that the Bears' defense had no answer to Kittle as he ripped off large chunks of yardage. With the fantasy playoffs starting next week in most leagues, Kittle managers should be feeling pretty good about having Kittle on their side. He'll get the Los Angeles Rams at home in Week 15 as a no-brainer start.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was quiet by his recent standards in the team's 31-13 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Empower Field in Week 15. Sutton led the Broncos in targets yet again with nine, but he only hauled in three catches for team-high 32 yards. However, a 20-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter to put the game away salvaged his line for fantasy managers. Quarterback Bo Nix struggled to get going in this one for the first time in a while and finished with only 130 total passing yards. Sunday's outing was Sutton's first with under 70 receiving yards since his zero-target performance in the Week 7 win over the Saints. Fantasy managers can't really complain. Sutton has seen at least eight targets in seven straight games and should remain a must-start with a high target share in a big divisional clash against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16 on Thursday night.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had a slow start to the season as rookie quarterback Bo Nix got acclimated to the NFL, but the veteran wideout has come on strong since a zero-target Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints and has ascended to must-start status in fantasy entering a pivotal Week 15 contest in Denver against the Indianapolis Colts. Since Week 8, Sutton has gone on a tear, catching 42 of 57 targets for 569 yards and three touchdowns. The 29-year-old is tied as the WR12 in overall half-PPR points in 2024, but in the last five weeks, he's been the WR9. He hit the century mark in receiving yards for the third time in last week's win over the Browns and scored twice the previous week. Indy's defense has been stingy against opposing wideouts in their last four games, allowing the fourth-fewest PPR points per game to the position, but Sutton's high target share in Denver gives him a safe floor.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton didn't lead the team in receiving in the 41-32 shootout win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday night at Empower Field, but he still went off for fantasy managers by catching six of his nine targets for 102 receiving yards. Sutton came three yards short of the team lead on the night, but he did lead the team in both targets and receptions as he continues to be rookie quarterback Bo Nix's favorite aerial target. The 29-year-old had a big drop earlier in the game that would have gone for a big gain to make his night even better. Heading into the bye, Sutton is as hot as any receiver in the NFL, going for 100-plus receiving yards in three of the last six weeks. He will face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15, where he should be considered a top-15 fantasy wideout with the emergence of Nix under center in Denver.

According to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team, New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game with a concussion. DeVito sustained this injury during the second quarter. As a result, veteran Tim Boyle will get the start for the remainder of the game. Before his early exit, DeVito went 10-for-13 with 68 yards. He was sacked two times and did not get on the scoresheet. Fantasy managers in Superflex formats should monitor DeVito's status after today's game as he may miss an extended period of time.

According to Pat Leonard of The Daily News, quarterback Tim Boyle will be the backup QB for Tommy DeVito in Week 15. The 30-year-old was signed from the team's practice squad earlier this week and will now serve as second-string for New York's meeting with the visiting Baltimore Ravens. Teammate Drew Lock (heel/elbow), who is battling through injuries, will be the emergency QB. Boyle is now on his second squad of 2024, as he appeared in two games earlier this season for the Miami Dolphins. The veteran could get some playing time over the season's final stretch as the Giants continue to shuffle around quarterbacks due to injuries and poor play. However, none of New York's present quarterback options are particularly enticing for fantasy -- even against a Ravens defense that's allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to QBs in 2024 (22.3).

New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito will return as QB1 in Week 15 against the Baltimore Ravens after a brief absence due to injury (forearm). In his lone start of the season back in Week 12, DeVito posted a modest 10.76 fantasy points with 189 passing yards, 32 rushing yards, and no touchdowns, showcasing limited upside. The matchup against Baltimore presents a mixed bag for the young signal-caller: while the Ravens rank last in passing defense, allowing 264.9 yards per game and 23 touchdowns on the season, they've limited quarterbacks to just 14.41 fantasy points per game over the past four weeks, the third-lowest mark in the league. DeVito's ceiling is capped by Baltimore's strong pass rush (they will pin their ears back if they get a big lead) and the Giants' struggling offensive line, which surrendered four sacks in his prior start. Proceed with caution in fantasy formats.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris managed just 14 rushing yards on six carries and hauled in his only target for a seven-yard gain in a 27-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Although fantasy managers cannot be pleased with this performance, Harris' output would have been even worse had he been credited with a lost fumble on a dropped toss from quarterback Russell Wilson. This turnover, which occurred in Philadelphia territory, arguably cost the Steelers the game as they trailed by just one touchdown in the third quarter before coughing the ball up. Harris' lack of touches can mostly be attributed to the fact that Pittsburgh never led on the scoreboard and only possessed the ball twice in the second half. Unfortunately, Harris has another difficult matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 16.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris has had to overcome a few difficult matchups this season and will once again have his work cut out for him in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles limit opposing offenses to the eighth-fewest rushing yards and hold running backs to the fourth-fewest fantasy points. That said, Philadelphia has allowed a running back to score on the ground in three of its last four contests. Harris is averaging over 20 touches per game and should be a focal point of Pittsburgh's offensive attack on Sunday, especially with George Pickens (hamstring) out of the lineup. Fantasy managers should not expect a massive performance from Harris but can still count on him as a volume-based low-end RB2 this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris handled 16 carries for 53 yards and a touchdown in a Week 14 win against the division-rival Cleveland Browns. Harris was a focal point of Pittsburgh's offense early in the first quarter, gaining 32 yards through its first two possessions. Although he was surprisingly quiet for much of the rest of the contest, he punched the ball into the end zone for a one-yard score in the second quarter to give the Steelers a 10-7 lead. He was not utilized as a pass-catcher on Sunday after hauling in six receptions last week. Regardless, Harris has been a steady contributor for fantasy and continues to receive a heavy workload on the ground. A difficult matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles awaits in Week 15.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned four carries into 12 yards and two targets into one catch for three yards in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Pittsburgh was never able to establish the run in this one and could not sustain drives, especially in the second half. Warren has just one top-20 fantasy showing this season and continues to serve as a change-of-pace back with Najee Harris operating ahead of him. He is only worth rostering in deeper formats and should not be considered in starting lineups heading into a Week 16 meeting with the Baltimore Ravens.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has gained at least 60 total yards in five straight contests and should continue to serve as a complement to Najee Harris against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Warren's utilization has been somewhat inconsistent as of late but he has been effective when given opportunities. Although the Eagles are stingy against the run, Philadelphia gives up plenty of receptions to opposing backs. With George Pickens (hamstring) inactive in Week 14, Warren led all Steelers with five targets. Pickens has already been ruled out this week, once again opening the door for Warren to contribute through the air. He is not a recommended starting option in standard redraft formats but Warren can be deployed as an RB3 with flex appeal in PPR leagues.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned nine carries into 47 yards and two receptions into 25 yards in a Week 14 victory over the Cleveland Browns. Although he only managed to catch two passes, Warren saw a season-high five targets on Sunday while backfield mate Najee Harris was not utilized in the passing game. Warren's role as a complementary back has been relatively steady as of late, giving him a floor for fantasy purposes in PPR formats. However, he has just one touchdown on the season as Harris has been the preferred option near the goal line. While his matchup next week against the Philadelphia Eagles is a difficult one, it should be noted that the Eagles have allowed a fair amount of production through the air to running backs, giving Warren some flex appeal.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers logged a full practice on Saturday as expected, and he carries no injury designation heading into Monday night's game with the Atlanta Falcons. He's been managing an ankle issue with plenty of rest throughout the weekdays, so this ailment is of minimal concern. He'll face an Atlanta defense that's been shredded multiple times through the air over the past few weeks, and it's a great matchup for Meyers to see plenty of targets. He should be started in all PPR leagues regardless of who ends up playing at QB. While his ceiling is lower if backup quarterback Desmond Ridder ends up getting the nod, he's a great and highly underrated WR that consistently gets separation and wins on his routes, and that's what matters for fantasy football.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Friday for the second straight day this week. Meyers was also listed as questionable for the Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but was active and played 91 percent of the offensive snaps while catching seven of his 10 targets for 67 yards. It's possible the 28-year-old draws another questionable tag on Saturday for Monday night's game against the Atlanta Falcons, but as of right now, we'd be surprised if Meyers didn't suit up. He's been much more attractive in fantasy lineups ever since the Raiders traded Davante Adams to the New York Jets. Meyers has averaged 11.7 half-PPR points in his last four games, catching 27 of 42 targets for 313 yards. The matchup against the Falcons secondary is an excellent one, but he'll have more bust potential as a WR3/flex with Desmond Ridder likely starting at QB on Monday.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned about Meyers considering he played through the issue last week. Meyers hauled in seven receptions for 67 yards while battling the same ankle issue during the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Meyers sitting out on Thursday could just be the Raiders being cautious with him ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. If he plays, Meyers should be able to offer WR2 value, but the quarterback situation in Las Vegas is uncertain right now. Meyers might lose some value if Desmond Ridder ends up under center on Monday.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall caught just one of his four targets during Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, finishing Week 15 with 16 yards. The rookie pass-catcher has struggled to emerge as a relevant option in redraft leagues given his No. 3 role behind Deebo Samuel Sr. and Jauan Jennings. The 24-year-old has just 13 catches for 153 yards this year, and most of that production came in a singular game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers back in Week 10. As long as Pearsall remains third on the depth chart, he should be benched or left on waivers in fantasy football. That trend continues next week against the Miami Dolphins, who have been quite stingy against opposing wide receivers in 2024.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall remained lower in the pecking order of targets during the team's 38-13 win over the Chicago Bears. The rookie finished the game with two targets, one reception, and five yards. Jauan Jennings and George Kittle commanded over half of the targets in this game, leaving Pearsall behind Isaac Guerendo and Deebo Samuel Sr. The 49ers now have a short week and will take on the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night for Week 15.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall should not be started in any formats in Week 14 when he faces the Chicago Bears. The former first-round selection has seen three targets over the past three games but has been unable to come down with any of them. However, during Weeks 7 through 10, the Florida product averaged a modest 11.4 PPR points per game. While Pearsall is deployed as the clear No.3 wide receiver, he has been unable to find much consistency in the passing attack behind Deebo Samuel Sr., Jauan Jennings, and tight end George Kittle. However, with Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) sidelined, the 49ers may rely on their passing attack more often down the stretch. However, given his lack of production over the past month, fantasy managers should not consider starting him for the foreseeable future.
