Dylan Sampson

CLE Running Back #22

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Dylan Sampson (calf/hand) did not practice Wednesday.

Sampson played through the calf issue on Sunday and didn’t appear to be bothered by it. He only ran the ball twice but added 64 yards through the air on five catches. The rookie did, however, lose a fumble in the fourth quarter. The hand issue is a new addition to the injury report. If he plays through it, Sampson will be a low-end RB4 for PPR leagues versus the Chicago in Week 15.

Metcalf expected to play Monday vs. Dolphins

December 10, 2025 03:55 PM

Kyle Dvorchak talks about how DK Metcalf, who has been dealing with a stomach issue, projects in fantasy for Week 15, sharing why he should have a big role for the Steelers against the Dolphins on Monday Night Football.

Cedric Tillman

CLE Wide Receiver #19

Cedric Tillman (concussion/rib) did not practice Wednesday.

Tillman caught one pass for 23 yards versus Tennessee on Sunday. His role was already on the decline before suffering the concussion and rib injuries. He is now a safe bet to miss Week 15 entirely. Isaiah Bond will see an uptick in routes in his absence, though there isn’t much fantasy value to be had in Cleveland outside of Jerry Jeudy and Harold Fannin.

David Njoku

CLE Tight End #85
David Njoku (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

Njoku went down with the knee issue early in the Browns’ Week 14 loss to the Titans and did not return. His lone catch of the day resulted in a touchdown. Njoku was already being phased out of the offense before suffering the injury. Harold Fannin is now locked in for a high-volume role, putting him firmly within the TE1 ranks for Week 15.

Olamide Zaccheaus

CHI Wide Receiver #14

Olamide Zaccheaus (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Zaccheaus only saw three targets with Rome Odunze sidelined last week. He did, however, come up with an impressive touchdown catch to open the second half. With Odunze returning to practice this week, Zaccheaus should be off the fantasy radar for Week 15.

Rome Odunze

CHI Wide Receiver #15

Rome Odunze (foot) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Odunze missed Week 14’s game after failing to practice once throughout the week. A limited session today puts him on track to return to the lineup, but the Bears’ staff will undoubtedly want to see how he responds in practice over the next two days before giving him the green light. If active, a banged-up Odunze will be relegated to the fantasy WR3 ranks on a run-heavy Chicago offense. Luther Burden will continue to operate as the team’s top wideout if Odunze is held out versus the Browns.

Pat Bryant

DEN Wide Receiver #13

Broncos WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

Bryant had been quietly earning more work in the Denver offense in recent weeks. He has 17 targets over his past three games and has flipped Troy Franklin in the pecking order for routes. Bryant was added to the injury report on Thursday last week but participated in at least a limited capacity throughout the week. A DNP today could be a sign that his hamstring issue worsened during Sunday’s game. Franklin would reclaim his starting role if Bryant can’t suit up in Week 15.

Tutu Atwell

LA Wide Receiver #5

Rams coach Sean McVay said Tutu Atwell (hamstring) will be activated from injured reserve this week.

Atwell has been back at practice for a few weeks and is finally ready to return to action. He will play a part-time role on offense unless something happens to Puka Nacua or Davante Adams.

Marquis Haynes Sr.

Linebacker
Former Panthers LB Marquis Haynes announces his retirement from the NFL after seven seasons.

Haynes recently announced the start of his coaching career as a high school defensive coordinator. He last played in the NFL in 2024. Haynes played his entire career with the Panthers after being drafted by the team in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He ended his career with 104 combined tackles and 14 sacks.

Emari Demercado

ARI Running Back #31

Emari Demercado (ankle) was limited in Wednesday’s practice.

Demercado has been out since Week 11 with a high-ankle sprain. He returned to practice last week but didn’t suit up on Sunday. He has a shot at returning this week. Demercado would be in the mix for work on passing downs alongside Michael Carter, taking both players off the fantasy roster for Week 15.

Marvin Harrison Jr.

ARI Wide Receiver #18
Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) did not practice Wednesday.

MHJ missed Week 14’s game with the heel issue and is on track to sit for at least one more week after being held out of today’s practice. Michael Wilson has been utterly dominant in three starts without MHJ. He most recently went for 142 yards and a pair of touchdowns versus the Rams on Sunday. Assuming MHJ remains out this week, Wilson will hold a spot in the WR1 ranks versus Houston.
