Pearsall picked up two injuries in Week 15 and will now miss the team’s Monday Night Football game against the Colts. His absence could thrust Kendrick Bourne and Demarcus Robinson into more prominent roles, although it would likely be wide receiver Jauan Jennings and tight end George Kittle that stand to benefit the most against the Colts.

Swift popped up on the injury report Wednesday with a groin injury and practiced in a limited fashion on Thursday and Friday. While the 26-year-old running back is still listed as questionable, Fowler reports that he’s expected to play. Swift, coming off his best game of the season, is an RB2 against the Packers in Week 16. He could also see additional pass game usage with the Bears down multiple receivers.

It profiles as another smash week for Puka Nacua, who took advantage of Adams’ absence with 200 yards through the air in Week 16. The Rams will probably do just fine on offense given what they did against the league-best Seahawks defense on Thursday night. Still, it does cap a bit of Matthew Stafford’s touchdown upside for Week 17 to be without his goal line back.

He said his heel is “good enough to go” in a locker room availability on Friday, which is great news. Harrison did not get in a full session at any point this week though, so we still have a little bit of a question mark on if he’ll play against the Falcons. He’d be a WR2/WR3 if active. Michael Wilson is a WR3 if Harrison plays, but a high-end WR2 if not.

Watt didn’t practice all week, but was spotted in the facility today. Perhaps we’ll get more clarity from him before the end of the day on the timeline for his recovery, he obviously wasn’t close to playing after not practicing all week. Fellow EDGE Nick Herbig (hamstring) is doubtful after a limited session on Friday.

Rice did not practice all week and should be considered questionable for Week 17. Xavier Worthy bumps up to a potential WR3 play with the added volume from Rice spread around, and Hollywood Brown may be a usable FLEX pick as well. Yes, Gardner Minshew is under center, but it’s still the Tennessee Titans defense on the other side.

Pelissero says that part of the reason behind benching Tagovailoa was making sure he made it to 2026 healthy to “complicat[e] whatever long-shot trade scenarios you have.” The NFL Network’s reporter said that the “most likely scenario” for the Dolphins is making Tagovailoa a post-June 1 release, which would leave Tagovailoa with major cap hits in 2026 and 2027 ala Russell Wilson with the Broncos. Tagovailoa should find some sort of market as a rehab project — Justin Fields just did it without anywhere near the same amount of career success — but it’s hard to imagine him being fantasy-interesting in 2026 without an absolutely ideal landing spot.

London’s return could not have come at a better time from a fantasy perspective, at least as long as it didn’t cost you the playoffs in Week 15. The Cardinals have given up 40 or more points in four of their last six games and profile as an extremely nice “welcome back” game for the fantasy WR1 since Jacoby Brissett can apparently keep up with anyone.

Glenn had been reluctant to say in recent weeks whether Wilson would return this season, but he has finally confirmed that his WR1 will be shut down for the remainder of the season. Wilson suffered a knee sprain in Week 6 against the Broncos and re-aggravated that same injury in Week 11. The Week 11 injury landed Wilson on injured reserve, meaning he wouldn’t be eligible to return until Week 15. With the Jets in the final weeks of another lost season, there was little reason to force Wilson back on the field and risk another injury. Wilson caught 36 passes for 395 yards and four touchdowns in the seven games he appeared in this season while averaging 8.4 targets per game. This will mark the first time in his four-year career that Wilson failed to go for 1,000 yards, but there’s little reason to believe he won’t be ready to bounce back next season. The Jets have a lot to figure out this offseason, especially at the quarterback position following the failed Justin Fields experiment. Despite the question marks in the team’s QB room, Wilson should profile as a high-upside WR2 in fantasy next season.

The Seahawks trailed 30-14 in the fourth quarter, and Seattle had an all-time record of 0-172 when trailing by more than 15 points in that period. Make it 1-172. Darnold threw a couple of egregious picks — one of them in the end zone right into the arms of a defender — but he also showed off his impressive arm strength and ball placement to help Seattle pull off the borderline-miraculous comeback. The 28-year-old’s final throw was a two-point conversion to Eric Saubert — yes, that Eric Saubert — to complete the win. Darnold and the Seahawks now are in control of the NFC, and he’ll be on the QB1 precipice for Week 17 against the Panthers.
