In this episode of “Gets It,” Michael Smith chats with Chris Jones to discuss the identity of the Kansas City Chiefs, what makes this year’s defense so impressive, evolving as a leader and the business of the NFL.
Sunday’s 49ers-Eagles matchup is not just the biggest game of Week 13, it’s one of the most important games of this NFL season in its impact on the playoff picture, a rematch of last season’s NFC Championship Game and perhaps a preview of this season’s.

All Player News
  • TEN Wide Receiver #16
    Burks suffered the concussion in Week 9 and has been out ever since. He returned to practice this week and was upgraded to a full session by Friday. He still needed a final signoff from doctors as of Friday, hence the questionable tag, but appears to have gotten it. Burks will return as a fantasy WR4, offering much more utility to a Titans offense that has desperately needed a second receiving option than he does for fantasy rosters.
  • DAL Quarterback #4
    The negotiations have not yet begun, but it’s safe to assume the two sides will reach an agreement in the offseason. Prescott has 26 touchdowns and six interceptions this year. He is firmly in the MVP hunt and the Cowboys are sitting at 9-3. Per Rapoport, Prescott has a $60 million cap hit in 2024 and will be a free agent in the following offseason. An extension would keep Prescott in Dallas for years to come while also reducing his cap hit in 2024. A new deal for Prescott is simply a matter of when, not if.
  • NYJ Running Back #20
    Hall was listed as questionable after a full practice on Friday, so this isn’t exactly breaking news. Dalvin Cook is dealing with a shoulder issue but is also expected to play. Hall has been getting by on receptions in PPR leagues, averaging five catches per game over his past five appearances. With the Jets unlikely to mount many scoring drives under Tim Boyle, Hall needs all the catches he can get to approach RB1 numbers. He sits on the RB1/2 border for his Week 13 matchup with the Falcons.
  • NYJ Quarterback #8
    Per Rapport, Rodgers is “unlikely” to return this year. The latest chapter in the Rodgers saga is that he won’t return from his Achilles injury in four months for a few meaningless games. Who could have seen this coming? With the Jets sitting at 4-7 and staring down the barrel of another Tim Boyle start, there’s essentially no chance we see Rodgers on the field again this season. Rapoport noted that Rodgers could be activated from injured reserve to serve as the Jets’ emergency quarterback. Either way, don’t expect to see the four-time MVP taking live reps until 2024.
  • IND Running Back #28
    Per Rapoport, Taylor underwent surgery to repair a torn UCL in his thumb. He will use an internal brace to help with the recovery. The Colts didn’t put Taylor on injured reserve meaning they think there’s at least a chance he will miss fewer than four games. Until he returns, Zack Moss will serve as a bell-cow running back for the Colts. Moss ranks as an RB1 heading into his Week 13 date with the Titans.
  • CAR Quarterback #9
    The Panthers canned Reich after 11 games, only one of which resulted in a win. Reich was hired to oversee the introduction of Bryce Young into the NFL. The No. 1 overall pick has struggled mightily this year, tossing nine touchdowns to eight interceptions. Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson interviewed for Carolina’s head coaching vacancy last offseason but ultimately stayed in Detroit. Expect Panthers owner David Tepper to make an even more enticing offer this time around. Commanders OC Eric Bieniemy and Texans OC Bobby Slowik are both names to monitor for this vacancy as well.
  • HOU Wide Receiver #85
    Brown was listed as questionable after sitting out of Friday’s practice. He was considered a true coin-flip to play at the time, but things appear to have gone well for him over the weekend. The Texans haven’t had a fully healthy receiving room since Week 1. Brown played over Tank Dell in that game, but with the way the rookie has been playing this year, the Texans can’t afford to use him in a part-time role versus the Broncos. Brown will likely split reps with Robert Woods this time around. Coming off of back-to-back games over 150 yards before his knee injury, Brown ranks as a WR3 for Week 13.
  • LAC Wide Receiver #13
    Allen practiced once this week before being listed as questionable. He told reporters he felt great on Friday and he fully expected to play, so there was never much doubt that he would be suiting up today. Allen leads the NFL in catches and is top-five in yards and touchdowns. He remains near the top of the wide receiver rankings for his Week 13 matchup with the Pats.
  • TB Wide Receiver #14
    Per Schefter, Godwin will go through pre-game warmups to make sure he feels okay before getting the final go-ahead. Godwin hasn’t topped 60 receiving yards once in the past five weeks and only has one touchdown on the season. Healthy or not, he has fallen out of the WR3 for his Week 13 matchup with the Panthers.
  • ARI Wide Receiver #2
    Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon was optimistic early in the week about Brown’s odds of playing. Despite that, the speedy receiver did not practice at any point, logging three DNPs before being listed as questionable. Brown has struggled to establish much of a connection with Kyler Murray since he returned to the lineup but still got home for 88 yards on six catches in Week 12. Murray should start to look better as he gets more reps in the new offense. Brown sits on the WR2/3 border for his Week 13 matchup with the Steelers.
