Cardinals QB Kyler Murray is Active for Today's Game Vs. the Rams
Murray is officially active this afternoon in Los Angeles. Although the matchup seems daunting on paper, the Rams ruled out star CB Jalen Ramsey earlier in the week and had a bunch of key players listed as questionable. Combined with the coach speak this week, it is fair to wonder how much the Rams play their starters, meaning Murray could be playing against a bunch of backup defenders. He could be an interesting stacking partner in tournaments with veteran WR Larry Fitzgerald, who could be playing in his final NFL game.
As reported by: James Palmer Cardinals TE Charles Clay is Inactive Today Against the Rams
As expected, Maxx Williams and Dan Arnold will be the top tight ends for the Cardinals today.
As reported by: Scott Bordow Texans WRs Kenny Stills and Will Fuller are Both Inactive Today Vs. the Titans
Stills will join other key Texans’ starters on the sidelines today. Keke Coutee and DeAndre Carter will likely be the top receiving options for the team this afternoon.

Packers RB Jamaal Williams is Officially Inactive Today Against the Lions
Jamaal Williams (Shoulder) will not play against the Lions in Week 17. Packers starting RB Aaron Jones, who leads the NFL in touchdowns this season, posted 160 scrimmage yards and found the endzone twice last week vs. the Vikings. Jones saw a 67.5% snap rate and 25 touches and has a good chance to see similar volume vs. the Lions, who give up the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs. The Packers are motivated to win to improve their playoff seeding and are huge 12.5 favorites, meaning Jones will likely have a bell-cow workload in a positive game script. He is an elite play is all formats this weekend.
As reported by: Green Bay Packers Dolphins WR Allen Hurns is Inactive Today Vs. the Patriots
Hurns (ankle, neck) will not play vs. the Patriots. Although this will give Isaiah Ford and other Dolphins’ pass catchers more targets, they are only viable in large-field GPPs against the Patriots’ top-ranked passing and overall defense.
As reported by: Field Yates Vikings RB Alexander Mattison is Officially Inactive Today
As expected, Mattison (ankle) will rest along with starting RB Dalvin Cook (shoulder, chest). The Vikings will likely limit other starters’ reps today since they are locked into their playoff seed. Mike Boone and Ameer Abdullah will head the backfield, with Abdullah likely to get the majority of the work after Boone was benched for him last week. Abdullah wound up playing 59% of the snaps, while Boone played just 33%. Both are in play for tournaments given their cheap price tags and projected low ownership.
