  • FA Center #57

    Redskins agreed to terms with LS Nick Sundberg on a four-year contract.
    26-year-old Sundberg was shockingly given the “designated for return” tag after fracturing the ulna in his arm in last year’s season opener. The Redskins could have used that designation on a more valuable offensive or defensive player, but clearly have a high opinion of Sundberg’s long-snapping abilities.
  • NYG Quarterback #15

    Tommy DeVito will start in Week 15 against the Ravens.
    Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Drew Lock was in a walking boot and would miss at least one game, putting DeVito back under center for Week 15. In his lone 2024 start, DeVito completed 21-of-31 pass attempts for 189 scoreless yards and was sacked four times against the Bucs. DeVito’s primary job against the Ravens will be to funnel targets to Malik Nabers against one of the worst secondaries in the NFL.
  • WAS Wide Receiver #85
    Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said WR Noah Brown (ribs) is going to be out for “a while.”
    Brown, per Quinn, suffered internal injuries two weeks ago against the Titans and looks to be out indefinitely. Brown has positioned himself as the Commanders’ de facto WR2 behind Terry McLaurin. Brown’s absence could open up more targets for McLaurin, Zach Ertz, and Dyami Brown in the run-heavy Washington offense.
  • NO Quarterback #3
    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler believes QB Jake Haener is “well positioned” to start in Week 15 against the Commanders.
    Fowler added that “no firm determination has been made” about who will start for New Orleans this week after Derek Carr went down in Week 14 with a left hand injury. Though he’s been better than Spencer Rattler this year, Haener has completed just 49 percent of his attempts, with a 37 percent drop back success rate. Whether it’s Haener or Rattler, the Washington defense profiles as an elite fantasy option in Week 15.
  • CLE Kicker #7
    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said K Dustin Hopkins will remain the team’s starter in Week 15 against the Chiefs.
    It appears Hopkins will get another chance to redeem himself after missing nine of his 25 field goal tries in 2024. The Browns on Tuesday signed K Riley Patterson, prompting speculation that Hopkins’ days as Cleveland’s starter were over. Hopkins should remain on waiver wires this week.
  • CLE Tight End #85
    David Njoku (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.
    Njoku apparently tweaked his hamstring last week against the Steelers. Njoku should be OK for Week 15 against the Chiefs if he’s able to log a limited practice on Thursday or Friday. Kansas City represents a great matchup for Njoku, as no defense has allowed more tight end receptions this season than the Chiefs. Njoku has 30 targets over his past two games.
  • IND Wide Receiver #1
    Josh Downs (shoulder) will practice Wednesday.
    Downs, who was sidelined two weeks ago against the Patriots, has a good shot to suit up out of the Colts’ bye with an early-week practice. The team’s clear-cut No.1 receiving option, Downs will have a tough matchup against a stingy Denver coverage unit in Week 15 if he plays. Only the Texans have allowed a lower drop back success rate than the Broncos in 2024.
  • IND Center #78
    Colts opened the 21-day practice window for C Ryan Kelly (knee).
    Kelly, a four-time Pro Bowl center, has been on injured reserve since early November with a knee injury. His return to the Colts lineup would be a welcomed development for Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor. Pro Football Focus grades the Colts offensive line as the tenth best pass blocking unit and the second best run blocking unit. Kelly could return as soon as this Sunday against the Broncos.
  • Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said LG Alijah Vera-Tucker (ankle) has a chance to play in Week 15.
    Ulbrich said the team is hopeful Vera-Tucker can suit up this Sunday against the Jaguars in a meaningless game for both teams. Vera-Tucker could be an important addition to keep Aaron Rodgers upright and force feeding the ball to Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams against a terrible Jags defense.
  • NYJ Cornerback #1
    Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Sauce Gardner (hamstring) is “good to go” for Week 15 against the Jaguars.
    Gardner missed the Jets’ Week 14 overtime loss against the Dolphins, but will be back in action this Sunday against the Jaguars. With Gardner sidelined, the Jets secondary gave up 331 passing yards and two touchdowns to Miami. They shouldn’t have much problem shutting down Mac Jones and the Jacksonville passing offense in Week 15.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Breece Hall (knee) is “struggling a bit” ahead of Week 15.
    Hall’s knee issue, which kept him sidelined last week against the Dolphins, remains a major issue as the Jets prepare for a meaningless Week 15 game against the Jaguars. It would hardly be a surprise if Hall was shut down with the Jets eliminated from postseason contention. Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis split the New York backfield workload both as rushers and pass catchers in Week 14 against Miami. They would both be RB3 options against Jacksonville if Hall is sidelined.
