  • HOU Tight End #86

    Schultz was limited for Tuesday’s practice. That is standard fare for veterans this late in the year. A full practice today means he is good to go for Week 17. Schultz has finished as a TE1 in six of his past eight games. While his ceiling is relatively limited, he remains a high-floor TE1 bet for fantasy football championship week.
  • LAC Running Back #30
    Two DNPs to open the week puts Vidal on the doubtful side of questionable. Fantasy managers can assume he will miss Week 17. Hassan Haskins took over RB2 duties last week after Vidal went down. He didn’t run any routes, meaning Omarion Hampton should get plenty of targets versus Houston, boosting him from the back of the RB2 ranks to just outside of the RB1 range.
  • PHI Wide Receiver #11
    As The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McClane points out, Brown told reporters yesterday that he was having his wisdom teeth removed this week. We would assume that won’t prevent him from suiting up on Sunday. Fantasy managers should still keep an eye on the Eagles’ injury report this week, just to be sure. As long as Brown is back at practice by Friday, he will be a high-ceiling WR2 in a potential shootout with the Bills.
  • GB Running Back #8
    While it would be great to see Jacobs practice fully, this is actually an improvement from last week. The Packers’ starting running back totaled just 48 scoreless yards after sitting out all three practices. He is on track to play in Week 17 against the Ravens, though RB Emanuel Wilson could continue to split backfield touches with him.
  • NE Running Back #32
    Henderson participated in warmups with the team during the portion of practice open to the media. We do not know whether Henderson did much in practice beyond that. Players often miss at least one game after suffering brain injuries, so his early-week participation is an encouraging sign for his Week 17 availability. Patriots veteran RB Rhamondre Stevenson should be rostered at this time, just in case Stevenson is unable to clear the NFL’s concussion protocol.
  • NO Running Back #41
    Kamara will likely miss the remainder of the season with the knee and ankle issues. He hasn’t played since Week 12 and the Saints have been out of the playoff hunt for a while. They are only playing for a better draft pick at this point. With Kamara presumably out this week, Taysom Hill figures to lead the team in carries once again. He saw 12 rush attempts last week. Hill also caught four passes and threw one, a long touchdown to Chris Olave. He has entered the TE1 mix ahead of fantasy football championship week.
  • SF Wide Receiver #1
    Pearsall is seemingly on track to play, but his practice participation is worth tracking closely throughout the week. Pearsall proved himself as a capable route runner early in the year, but suffered a PCL sprain that sidelined him for weeks. He resumed playing in Week 11, and finally rounded back into form in Week 13. Unfortunately, in that same game, he injured his ankle via a hip-drop tackle and later aggravated his knee injury on a comeback route.
  • SF Tight End #85
    Kittle did not practice on Wednesday. The 49ers can get the No. 1 seed in the NFC and a bye to open the playoffs with wins in their final two contests. He could push through the ankle issue now to get a chance at a week of rest in the Wild Card Round. If he doesn’t suit up, backup tight end Jake Tonges would take his spot in the lineup. Tonges was a viable TE2 with Kittle sidelined earlier in the year.
  • DET Running Back #5
    Montgomery missed Tuesday’s practice with the illness but was back for a limited session today before being listed as questionable. We fully expect him to suit up this week. The Lions are a long-shot to make the playoffs, but they aren’t entirely eliminated just yet. Montgomery only carried the ball four times last week, but he should get more opportunities with the Lions expected to roll over the Max Brosmer-led Vikings this week. He will cling to RB3 life one last time when the Lions take on Minnesota on Christmas.
  • DET Wide Receiver #14
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported earlier today that St. Brown is expected to play through what has been described as “a little irritation” in his knee. We believe him. The Lions’ No. 1 wide receiver regularly plays through ailments. He remains a fantasy football WR1 for Week 17 against the Vikings.
