The Rams have placed RB Darrell Henderson on the COVID list. That will knock the RB out for Monday night's game against the Cardinals, leaving Sony Michel to lead the backfield for the 2nd straight week. Michel delivered a big rushing performance against Jacksonville last week and becomes a strong fantasy play for the week.
Cardinals HC Kliff Kingsbury only said Saturday that RB Chase Edmonds (ankle) could "possibly" play vs. the Rams on Monday night. Edmonds was designated to return from IR and has practiced all week. But Kingsbury said a final decision on his Week 14 status won't be made until Monday. Edmonds still needs to be activated if he's going to play vs. the Rams, but that doesn't need to happen until Monday. With the unknown here, Edmonds should be on fantasy benches at this point.
Rams RB Darrell Henderson missed Saturday's practice with an illness. He'd been limited the previous 2 days with the thigh injury that kept him sidelined in last week's win over the Jaguars. We'll see how Henderson is listed on the final injury report later today.
Titans WR Julio Jones (hamstring) has been activated from IR, setting him up to play vs. the Jaguars on Sunday. Jones has been out since Week 9 and been bothered by hamstring trouble almost all season, so he carries plenty of risk in Week 14 fantasy lineups. But he also has a chance to dominate Titans targets with WR A.J. Brown out.
Chargers WR Mike Williams is "on track" to play vs. the Giants on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Williams hasn't been activated from the COVID list yet, but it sounds like that'll happen later today.
Dolphins RB Salvon Ahmed has joined teammate Myles Gaskin on the COVID list. We'll see if they can get cleared for Miami's next game in Week 15 vs. the Jets. The Dolphins currently have Phillip Lindsay on the active roster, Duke Johnson and Gerrid Doaks on the practice squad and Malcolm Brown on IR.
Lions EDGE Charles Harris is questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos. He missed practice the past 2 days with an illness. We'll check his status Sunday.
Raiders LB Denzel Perryman (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. LB Cory Littleton (shoulder) finished the week with no injury designation for the game, so he's good to go for Sunday.
Jets LB C.J. Mosley (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints. He finished the week with a full Friday workout, though, and appears on track to play. DE John Franklin-Myers (hip) is also questionable, and also put in a full Friday practice.
Texans DE Jonathan Greenard is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a foot injury that has lingered for weeks. Greenard saw his playing time dip last week to its lowest snap share since Week 5. Then his practice participation declined. Greenard went from 3 limited workouts last week to sandwiching a missed Thursday practice between 2 limited appearances this week. Even if he's active vs. Seattle, it's clear he's dealing with a limiting injury. We'll update his status Sunday morning.
Seahawks S Quandre Diggs is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans with a calf injury. Diggs missed Wednesday and Thursday before returning to a limited Friday workout. He looks very iffy for the game, but we'll check his status Sunday.
Washington S Landon Collins (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. He missed last week's game with the injury but made it back for limited practices the past 2 days. We'll see about his status Sunday.
Giants QB Mike Glennon has cleared the concussion protocol and will start Sunday's game vs. the Chargers, the team announced Friday night. Glennon is a bottom-barrel QB2 against the league's 6th-ranked QB defense, but he's at least a slight upgrade from QB Jake Fromm for New York's skill-position guys.
49ers WR Deebo Samuel (groin) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bengals. He returned to a limited practice on Friday after missing the first 2 workouts of the week. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said Friday night that Samuel has “a chance” to play on Sunday. Stay tuned to Shark Bites for further updates.
Rams WR Odell Beckham is not listed on the Week 14 injury report. It's notable after he played just 53% of the offensive snaps last week -- presumably because of the hip pointer he was playing through. Beckham should be back to a full-time role vs. the Cardinals on Monday night.
Texans WR Brandin Cooks (back) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. He was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Friday. We'll look for further updates on his status. His game kicks off at 1 pm ET on Sunday, so we'll know whether he's active by 11:30 am ET.
Texans RB David Johnson (thigh, illness) practiced in full all week and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll return to a timeshare with RB Rex Burkhead against the Seahawks on Sunday.
Broncos RB Melvin Gordon (hip) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Lions. Both he and HC Vic Fangio expect Gordon to play. We’ll see what kind of roles he’s returning to after RB Javonte Williams’ massive Week 13. The plus matchup against Detroit keeps Gordon in play as a RB3 or flex.
Rams RB Darrell Henderson (thigh) remained limited in Friday's practice. We'll see what he does tomorrow and then how he's listed on the final injury report for Monday night's game vs. the Cardinals.
Seahawks RB Adrian Peterson will not play against the Texans on Sunday due to a lower-back injury, HC Pete Carroll said. Peterson never appeared on this week's injury report because he's on the practice squad. With RB Travis Homer out, Seattle is down to RBs Rashaad Penny, Alex Collins and DeeJay Dallas. Carroll said Penny will be a "big part" of the game plan this week. He looks like the best fantasy bet here, but this is still a backfield to try to avoid.
