Rotoworld

Jamel Dean

TB Cornerback #35

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jamel Dean is questionable to return to Week 11 against the Bills with a hip injury.

Dean played one series to start the game and then limped to the locker room. Benjamin Morrison will take over for him, but this would be a big loss because Dean has been the Bucs’ best cornerback.

Purdy 'has to be in lineups' for fantasy playoffs

December 23, 2025 03:58 PM

Patrick Daugherty and Denny Carter praise "one of the hottest players in the entire NFL," revealing why Brock Purdy "has done so well this year" in clean pockets and should have another big game on Sunday Night Football.

Lamar Jackson

BAL Quarterback #8
Lamar Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Week 17 against the Packers.

Jackson was listed as a non-participant for Thursday’s practice before getting the doubtful designation. The 28-year-old almost assuredly will be out for Saturday’s game against the Packers, meaning Tyler Huntley will get the start in that contest. Whether Jackson plays in Week 18 against the Steelers will depend on how the signal-caller heels, and also if that game has any meaning.

Rome Odunze

CHI Wide Receiver #15

Rome Odunze (foot) was listed as a non-participant for Thursday’s practice.

Odunze will have one more potential pratice session Friday, but signs seem to be pointing to the 23-year-old missing antother football game against the 49ers in Week 17. Assuming he doesn’t play, Olamide Zaccheaus will likely be the second wideout option for that contest against San Francisco behind DJ Moore.

Luther Burden

CHI Wide Receiver #10

Luther Burden was limited participant for Thursday’s practice.

Burden gets just an estimate since the Bears didn’t practice. The 22-year-old appears to be questionable for the Sunday Night showdown against the 49ers in Week 17.

Ricky Pearsall

SF Wide Receiver #1

Ricky Pearsall (ankle/knee) was listed as a limited participant for Thursday’s practice.

It’s an estimate with the team not practicing on Christmas. Pearsall has been limited in back-to-back practices, and will likely be a game-time decision for Sunday Night Football against the Bears in Week 17.

George Kittle

SF Tight End #85

George Kittle (ankle) was listed as a non-participant for Thursday’s practice.

Kittle has has now not participated in back-to-back practices ahead of the 49ers’ critical Week 17 game against the Bears. The tight end still has a chance to play, but Friday’s practice will be critical. Fantasy managers should be prepared for an alternative.

Kimani Vidal

LAC Running Back #30

Kimani Vidal (neck) did not practice Thursday.

It’s an estimate with the team having Christmas Day off. Vidal did not practice at all this week, and the Chargers will take on the Texans on Saturday. It’s certainly possible Vidal will play, but it seems very unlikely, and very unwise to have him in a fantasy lineup regardless.

Marcedes Lewis

DEN Tight End #89

Broncos signed TE Marcedes Lewis from the practice squad.

Lewis is 41 years old, and probably will play forever. It will no longer come with any fantasy relevance, but it will be infinite.

Davante Adams

LA Wide Receiver #17

Davante Adams (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant for Thursday’s practice ahead of the Rams’ Week 17 matchup against the Falcons.

The Rams didn’t practice on Christmas Day, so this was an estimate from the club. Adams seems unlikely to be able to play in the Monday Night Football tilt against Atlanta, and there’s a chance we won’t see the 33-year-old until the postseason. That should lead to more targets for Konata Mumphield for these final two contests.

Terry McLaurin

WAS Wide Receiver #17

Terry McLaurin caught 5-of-7 targets for 63 yards in the Commanders’ Week 17 loss to the Cowboys.

It was a quiet afternoon for the entirety of the Washington offense, with the final box scores entirely underselling how poor the team performed against their divisional rivals. The team ran only 41 offensive plays and would have been handily blown out if not for a 72-yard touchdown by rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt and a 41-yard, catch-and-run gain by Deebo Samuel. McLaurin heads into a Week 18 meeting with the Eagles at the tail end of a disappointing fantasy season.
