Pollard out-carried Tyjae Spears, who had five rushes, but lost out on the primary pass-catching role out of the Tennessee backfield. Pollard ran fewer routes than Spears and saw just two targets to Spears’ four targets. It’s an ugly backfield split in an offense that won’t produce much in the way of yards or touchdowns. Pollard, who had 17 touches last week against the Cardinals, will be a flex play in 14-teams leagues in Week 7 against an improving Patriots defense.

Mooney caught three passes in his previous three games combined. Reeling in three balls in this game is an improvement, but it was still a rough day for Mooney. He continued to struggle with drops and averaged an inefficient 4.9 yards per target. Drake London got injured late in this game and could miss Week 12. Mooney will cling to WR4 life if London is out. He will otherwise be off the fantasy radar entirely.

Jurgens returns to the Philadelphia offensive line after missing the previous two games with a knee injury sustained in Week 7, just in time for one of the more difficult rushing matchups in the league against the Lions. Inactive for the Eagles are QB Sam Howell. RB A.J. Dillon, CB Mac Williams, G Drew Kendall, and NT Ty Robinson.

The 88 yards rushing were the fourth most of Tracy’s career, and a new season high. His 51 receiving yards were the second most of his career. So naturally he continued to lose goal-line work to Devin Singletary, who produced two touchdowns on his 16 carries. Frustrating, though Tracy has now firmly moved ahead of Singletary as the Giants’ 1A back as they look to mix and match their backfield down the stretch. With Jaxson Dart (concussion) likely back for Week 12 against the Lions, Tracy will be an upside RB2/FLEX option for what could be a high-scoring game.

He was ruled out early in the second half. Mike Caliendo is getting snaps in his stead at left guard. Suamataia has been a much better player in his second season at left guard after a rough rookie season at left tackle.

The efficient Loveland continues to be a tertiary pass catcher in the Bears’ run-heavy offense. He ran 21 routes in Week 11 to 26 routes for Cole Kmet, who two catches for 45 yards on five targets. When Kmet is healthy and in the lineup, Loveland is hardly playable in 12-team leagues. Loveland has 15 receptions over Kmet’s past five healthy outings. He’ll be a desperation streaming play in Week 12 against the Steelers.

Morris added, “It didn’t feel great.” Penix was bent backward while taking a sack in the third quarter. He managed to walk off under his own power and was listed as questionable to return. He never retook the field despite the game making it to overtime. His status for Week 12 is up in the air as of Sunday night. Kirk Cousins will make his second start of the year if Penix can’t suit up versus the Saints.

D’Andre Swift once again led the Chicago backfield, this time with 21 carries for 90 scoreless yards as Monangai — the bigger back in the Bears backfield — continued seeing inside-the-ten work. The rookie now has three rushing scores in 2025. Swift logged 12 pass routes on the day while Monangai had 11 — a surprisingly even split considering Swift’s usual role as the clear-cut pass-catching back for Caleb Williams. Monangai will continue to have deep league flex appeal in the Bears’ run-heavy offense. He’ll be a top-30 option next week against the Steelers.

Cousins took over for Michael Penix after the latter suffered a knee injury in the third quarter. Cousins protected the football but couldn’t get much going on offense. He led a pair of field-goal-scoring drives that featured a combined 33 yards of offense. Cousins made one start earlier this year, throwing for 173 scoreless yards in a loss to Miami. Cousins would not be a viable streaming option versus the Saints next week if Penix is unable to suit up.
