Dalton Schultz

HOU Tight End #86

Texans TE Dalton Schultz (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice.

Schultz has been dealing with a hamstring injury, missing Week 13 against the Broncos. He did not practice all of last week, but returns to start this week in a limited capacity. Brevin Jordan started in place of Schultz in Week 13, but Schultz should reclaim that spot once he returns. On track to play for Week 14 against the Jets, Schultz ranks as a low-end TE1.
Puka Nacua

LAR Wide Receiver #17

Rams WR Puka Nacua was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice.

Although Nacua was listed as a limited participant, head coach Sean McVay said “he just did everything” in the Rams’ Wednesday practice. Nacua hurt his shoulder in a Week 13 win over the Browns, but finished the game. The rookie has been a WR1/2 all season long and should continue to operate in the WR2 range despite the shoulder issue. Fantasy managers will be thrilled to hear that he is practicing and McVay’s comments provide optimism that he will play Week 14 against the Ravens.
Kenneth Walker III

SEA Running Back #9

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (oblique) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday’s practice.

Head coach Pete Carroll initially said that Walker and Zach Charbonnet did some work in a walkthrough, but both were listed as non-participants in practice. The Seahawks’ near-indecipherable language around injuries makes it hard to distinguish how ready Walker is to begin the week, but his practice statuses later in the week will paint a clearer picture. Walker has missed two straight games for the Seahawks and is in danger of missing Week 14 against the 49ers.
Zach Charbonnet

SEA Running Back #26

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday’s practice.

Charbonnet initially hurt his knee during the Seahawks’ Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. He has filled in as the starter with Kenneth Walker out, but now both players are dealing with injuries heading into Week 14. Head coach Pete Carroll stated earlier that both did some work in a walkthrough, but neither were listed as practice participants. Charbonnet has a couple more chances to participate in practice, but his status against the 49ers is in question for now.
Justin Jefferson

MIN Wide Receiver #18

Vikings WR Justin Jefferson practiced in full on Wednesday.

It was the star wide receiver’s first full practice since Week 5. The team activated Jefferson off the IR last week and then went on bye, but Jefferson will certainly be back for Week 14 against the Raiders. His return will be a boost for Joshua Dobbs, who was named the starting quarterback for the weekend, and the entire Vikings offense. Given how long he’s been sidelined, we should expect that Jefferson will be 100 percent healthy when he steps onto the field this weekend. Get him into your lineups.
Breece Hall

NYJ Running Back #20

Jets RB Breece Hall (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday.

Hall was ostensibly healthy for the Jets’ Week 13 loss to the Falcons; however, fellow running back Dalvin Cook had his first double-digit carry game of the season and out-gained Hall on the ground with 35 yards to Hall’s 16 yards. There didn’t appear to be any injury suffered during the game either, but Hall will now not practice to start the week as he manages this ankle injury. Jets head coach Robert Saleh was vocal about Hall needing to dance around less and pick up “grimy yards,” so it wouldn’t be surprising to see Cook continue to get even more work as Hall deals with his coach’s frustration and this ankle injury.
Dallas Goedert

PHI Tight End #88

Dallas Goedert (arm) is practicing in full for Week 14 against the Cowboys.

Goedert alluded to his return earlier in the day, saying, “Dallas in Dallas has a nice ring to it.” A full practice to open the week all but guarantees he will return versus the Cowboys. The Eagles haven’t gotten any production from their backup tight ends since Goedert went down, instead pumping more targets to DeVonta Smith. With Goedert back, things will likely normalize and A.J. Brown should resume his top-dog role in the Eagles’ passing attack. Goedert will rank as a low-end TE1 for Week 14.
Najee Harris

PIT Running Back #22

Steelers RB Najee Harris (knee) is questionable for Thursday night’s game against the Patriots.

Harris was unable to practice on both Tuesday and Wednesday with a knee injury, which is not great news heading into Thursday night’s game. Harris could certainly play without having practiced, but it’s not common with running backs. If Harris were to miss Thursday’s game against the Patriots, it would mean a full workload for Jaylen Warren, which would make Warren an RB1 for fantasy. Given that Harris wasn’t able to practice at all this week, it’s likely that even if he were to play, he would be doing so at less than 100 percent and could see a reduced workload.
DeVante Parker

NE Wide Receiver #1

DeVante Parker (knee) is questionable for Week 14 against the Steelers.

Parker was limited in practice throughout the week because of the knee issue. The veteran wideout should be able to suit up despite the injury, but fantasy managers will want to check on New England’s inactives before kickoff. Parker led the Patriots with four catches for 64 yards last week. With Demario Douglas already ruled out, Parker will be in line for WR5 fantasy numbers if active.
Rhamondre Stevenson

NE Running Back #38

Rhamaondre Stevenson (ankle) will not play in Week 14 against the Steelers.

Stevenson suffered the ankle injury early in the Pats’ Week 13 loss to the Chargers and did not return. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported earlier this week that Stevenson would miss several weeks, so the Pats ruling him out today is only a formality. Ezekiel Elliott, who saw 21 touches in Week 13, will draw the start as a fantasy RB2 versus Pittsburgh.
