Alex Erickson (Back) Practices Fully Friday, No Injury Designation for Sunday
Erickson was able to practice fully Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday. He had been surging prior to the Bengals’ bye week, bringing in 18 of 27 targets for 281 yards and 0 TDs. However, in the first game with Ryan Finley at QB, Erickson caught neither of his two targets and had 1 rush for 13 yards. The switch to Finley at QB is likely to hurt all the Bengals’ WRs value the rest of the season.

George Kittle (Ankle/Knee), Matt Breida (Ankle) and Robbie Gould (Quad) All Doubtful for Sunday vs Cardinals
The 49ers could be without three offensive players Sunday vs the Cardinals. If Kittle is out, Ross Dwelley will get the start at TE against a Cardinals’ defense that has been destroyed by TEs this season. Breida being out would mean more touches for Coleman and Mostert, while Chase McLaughlin would handle kicking duties.
As reported by: Nick Wagoner Other tagged players: Matt Breida, Robbie Gould, Ross Dwelley, Chase McLaughlin Will Fuller (Hamstring) Questionable Sunday
Fuller is questionable Sunday and could make his return after missing the Texans’ last two games. Fuller has been an underwhelming option this season outside of his massive Week 5, and he figures to be even riskier in his first game back from a hamstring injury.
As reported by: Aaron Wilson Other tagged players: Deshaun Watson Marquise Brown (Ankle) and Chris Moore (Thumb) Questionable for Sunday
Both Brown and Moore are questionable Sunday for the Ravens. Brown does have the potential to produce even on a limited snap count: in the two games this season he has played fewer than 20 snaps, he has gotten at least 4 catches, 80 yards and a TD. If he plays at all, he can hit value.
As reported by: Jeff Zrebiec Other tagged players: Chris Moore Jordan Howard (Shoulder) Limited Friday, Questionable for Sunday
Howard is was limited Friday and is officially Questionable for Sunday. He has seen an increased workload as the season progresses, including 42 rush attempts over the last two games. If out, Miles Sanders would become an appealing option with upside, while newly signed Jay Ajayi could see some snaps.
As reported by: Adam Caplan Other tagged players: Jay Ajayi Alshon Jeffrey (Ankle) Ruled Out Sunday
Jeffery has been ruled out Sunday, which combined with the absence of DeSean Jackson, leaves the Eagles relying on some young WRs. Recently added WR Jordan Matthews should also see his first run with the Eagles this season.
As reported by: Mike Giardi Other tagged players: Nelson Agholor, Jordan Matthews, Mack Hollins, JJ Arcega-Whiteside Matt LaCosse (Knee), Damien Harris (Hamstring) and Gunner Olszewski (Ankle/Hamstring) Questionable for Sunday
LaCosse, Harris and Olszewski are all questionable for Sunday for the Patriots. None will have a significant fantasy impact even if healthy.
As reported by: New England Patriots Other tagged players: Damien Harris, Gunner Olszewski Ty Johnson (Concussion) Practices Fully Friday, Questionable Sunday
Johnson was able to practice fully Friday and is considered questionable for Sunday. He will still need to clear the concussion protocol, but he has a good shot at playing this week. The Lions’ backfield has turned into a timeshare, so Johnson’s upside is capped even if healthy.
As reported by: Detroit Lions Other tagged players: JD McKissic, Paul Perkins Le'Veon Bell, Demaryius Thomas Questionable Sunday
Both Bell and Thomas are expected to at least try to play, as both were able to get limited practices in during the week.
As reported by: New York Jets Other tagged players: Demaryius Thomas Chase Edmonds (Hamstring) Out Sunday
Edmonds will miss his third straight game Sunday. Even if healthy, the RB touches in this offense are clearly going to Kenyan Drake and David Johnson.
As reported by: Josh Weinfuss Other tagged players: Kenyan Drake, David Johnson Marshon Lattimore (Hamstring) Out vs. Buccaneers
Marshon Lattimore has been ruled out for the Saints, which should boost Mike Evans. Earlier this season the Saints held Evans to his only catch-less game of the year so far, but he should see more favorable matchups this time.
As reported by: Adam Caplan Other tagged players: Mike Evans Jeff Heuerman Doubtful; DaeSean Hamilton Questionable for Sunday
Heuerman will miss his second straight game, while DaeSean Hamilton appears likely to play. Hamilton started last game but did not get a target, so he is hard to trust in fantasy even if healthy.
As reported by: Zac Stevens Other tagged players: DaeSean Hamilton Diontae Johnson is in Concussion Protocol
Johnson was knocked out of the Steelers’ Thursday night game with a concussion, and he has been placed into the concussion protocol. He does have a 10-day break due to the Steelers playing on Thursday night, but his Week 12 status is still in doubt. The rookie WR Johnson is second on the Steelers with 380 receiving yards this season.
As reported by: Adam Schefter Chris Thompson (Toe) Out Sunday
Thompson has been ruled out Sunday, his fourth straight missed game. The Redskins got some help at RB this week with Derrius Guice returning from IR.
As reported by: Washington Redskins Other tagged players: Adrian Peterson, Derrius Guice Seth DeValve (Oblique) Doubtful Sunday
DeValve is doubtful for Sunday. Josh Oliver would be the top TE for the Jaguars if DeVale is out. Oliver has not been heavily involved in the offense, totaling just 2 catches for 10 yards in 3 games.
