Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer (ankle) was a non-participant in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday due to an ankle issue, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Mayer only played 13 offensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Cleveland Browns before injuring his ankle and never returning. The 24-year-old's status is now up in the air for this weekend's divisional rematch against the Los Angeles Chargers. Mayer has not been a realistic TE2 fantasy football streamer this year as long as Brock Bowers has been healthy. In nine total games, the former second-rounder in 2023 out of Notre Dame has 22 catches for 182 yards and only one touchdown on 32 targets. If Mayer is unavailable to play against L.A. on Sunday, it should open up more playing time for rookies Dont'e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech in three-wide sets.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie first-round running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle) is not listed on the team's Week 13 injury report, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Jeanty injured his ankle late in Sunday's loss to the Cleveland Browns, but it was nothing serious, and he'll be ready to play for a Week 13 date with the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. The 21-year-old from Boise State didn't find much room to run on the ground in Week 12 (17 carries for 50 yards), but he salvaged his fantasy day with a season-high eight receptions for 58 yards and a touchdown through the air. Jeanty has struggled to put up numbers on the ground in his first NFL season behind a bad offensive line, and things probably won't get any easier this weekend. But the volume alone will make Jeanty a low-end RB1/high-end RB2 in fantasy football. He had 11 carries for 43 yards and three catches for one yard in the previous meeting with the Chargers back on Sept. 15.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker (knee) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice with a knee injury, according to ESPN's Ryan McFadden. Tucker didn't show any signs of an injury in the Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, playing 95% of the offensive snaps and finishing with three catches on a team-high 10 targets for 28 yards. The 24-year-old may need to upgrade to a full practice this week to avoid a questionable tag for Week 13 against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, though. Tucker has seen more looks in the last two games, hauling in seven of 18 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown. Veteran Tyler Lockett has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith, though, and tight end Brock Bowers also takes away valuable looks. In what has been a bad Raiders offense in 2025, Tucker has limited fantasy upside as a WR4/flex heading into a rematch against L.A. Tucker had just three catches on eight targets for a season-low 12 yards in the first game against the Chargers.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie first-round running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) said he was dealing with a fractured ankle, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. Hampton also said he feels "amazing" and is hoping to be a full-go once he's activated from Injured Reserve. The 22-year-old Ohio State product fractured his ankle in Week 5 and has been out since, but he returned to a limited practice on Wednesday and has a shot to play this Sunday versus the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. Offensive coordinator Greg Roman hinted this week that Hampton could be in a timeshare with Kimani Vidal upon his return, which somewhat clouds his fantasy value upon his return. Hampton showed just before his ankle fracture that he's capable of RB1 upside with a heavy workload, but fantasy managers may want to temper expectations initially if L.A. looks to ease him back into the fold.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton isn't ruling out a potential return from running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) later in the year, according to Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. Dobbins was previously ruled out for the rest of the season due to a foot injury, but if the Broncos make a deep postseason run, Dobbins might be able to return. For fantasy football purposes, managers in single-year leagues can dump Dobbins to the waiver wire if they haven't already done so, since he won't be able to help them before the end of the year. Denver will move forward with rookie second-rounder RJ Harvey as their primary backfield option with Dobbins out, but Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie will also be involved in change-of-pace roles. Harvey will have RB2 upside the rest of the way, while McLaughlin and Badie are simply bench stashes in deeper fantasy leagues.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo (foot) finds himself on the injury report yet again in Week 13, and he was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Michael DiRocco. Okonkwo shouldn't have any problem playing through his foot injury this weekend against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars unless he suffers a setback in practice on Thursday or Friday. The 26-year-old is still looking for his first touchdown of the 2025 season and has not had much fantasy upside in one of the worst offenses in football while sharing targets with rookie TE Gunnar Helm. Okonkwo has gone over 50 receiving yards in a game this year just three times in 11 games, although two of those instances have come in the last four games. Okonkwo will have less appeal as a TE2 streamer in fantasy football in Week 13 if rookie receiver Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) is able to return.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) was listed as limited in the team's practice on Wednesday as he continues to battle through a hamstring injury, according to Michael DiRocco of ESPN. While it's unknown if Ayomanor will be able to return in a Week 13 divisional matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday, he's on the right track with a limited practice on Wednesday. The 22-year-old pass-catcher was unable to play in the Week 12 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, which allowed fellow rookie Chimere Dike to work as Tennessee's WR1. Remember, veteran Calvin Ridley (leg) is out for the year with a broken fibula. If the fourth-round rookie gets cleared to return this weekend, he'll be in play as a WR4/flex in deeper fantasy football leagues. Through his first 10 NFL games, Ayomanor has 28 receptions on 59 targets for 334 yards and two touchdowns.

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. (illness) missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness, according to The Washington Post's Nicki Jhabvala. Rodriguez's status for the Sunday night primetime game against the visiting Denver Broncos in Week 13 is worth monitoring, but the 25-year-old should be cleared by then. In recent weeks, C-Rod has taken over early-down duties in Washington's backfield from struggling rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt, while Jeremy McNichols continues to be the team's primary pass-catching back. Rodriguez should be good to go against Denver, but his fantasy stock is trending down this week in a bad matchup with backup quarterback Marcus Mariota set to make another start. The Broncos' strong defense has allowed the third-fewest rushing yards per game (88.5) in 2025.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) was listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. Daniels will most likely be officially ruled out for Week 13 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football, but there's a chance he'll return in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings if he continues to make progress. The 24-year-old second-year signal-caller has not played since suffering a gruesome dislocated left (non-throwing) elbow in the Week 9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Even though the Commanders have lost six straight games to put them well out of playoff contention, it sounds as though Daniels will return when he's cleared in December. The former second overall pick also missed a few games early in the season with a knee injury. In his six games, Daniels has thrown for 1,184 yards, eight touchdowns, and two interceptions.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) said that he plans to return and play on Sunday Night Football in Week 13 against the visiting Denver Broncos for the first time in a month, according to ESPN's John Keim. McLaurin has played just once since Week 3 and has missed the last three contests due to a lingering right-quad injury. He played in a Week 8 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs but aggravated the injury. The 30-year-old is feeling better coming out of the team's bye week, though, and he was limited in practice on Wednesday. In addition to McLaurin, the team could get Noah Brown (groin, knee) back from Injured Reserve in Week 13. McLaurin and Brown have played just two games together this year. McLaurin's fantasy managers have to be happy with this news, but he could easily disappoint in his first game back if he's active while potentially seeing fewer snaps against an elite Broncos defense that is expected to get All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain (pectoral) back from injury.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) was limited in his return to practice on Wednesday, per AZCardinals.com's Darren Urban. Harrison had an appendectomy following the team's Week 10 game, and he's missed the last two games as a result. Although nothing is official yet, the 23-year-old second-year wideout could be on track to return in Week 13 on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if he's able to upgrade to a full practice on Thursday or Friday. It's good news for his fantasy managers, although there have been indications that Harrison could take a back seat to Michael Wilson, who has a whopping 25 catches on 33 targets for 303 yards the last two weeks, when he returns. Although Harrison has been better since quarterback Jacoby Brissett took over the offense, he still has yet to live up to his draft status of fourth overall in 2024.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (ankle) upgraded to a full practice on Wednesday and has been removed from the final injury report in Week 13, according to Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun. Bateman will put an end to his two-game absence due to an ankle sprain and will play against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals on Thanksgiving Day on Thursday night. The matchup against Cincy's porous defense is an excellent one for Bateman to return to, but he may not be able to take advantage of it. The 25-year-old is having another disappointing season for fantasy football purposes, having caught just 16 passes for 194 yards and two touchdowns on 32 targets through nine games. At best, fantasy managers should consider Bateman to be a low-upside WR5/flex in deeper leagues in his return to Baltimore's lineup.

From RotoBaller

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee), who is still on Injured Reserve, was limited in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday, according to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. Benson returned to practice last Wednesday for the first time since undergoing surgery earlier this year on his meniscus. The 23-year-old has now put in four straight limited practices. He might need to upgrade to a full practice this week to be activated from the IR before Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Bam Knight continues to be limited in practice with a knee injury, but he should be fine to play this weekend. If Benson is held out for another game, Knight figures to continue in the lead-back role with Emari Demercado still dealing with an ankle sprain. If Benson is cleared to play against Tampa, his snaps may be capped in his first game back since Week 4.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) was held out of the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday with a low-grade AC joint sprain in his left (non-throwing) shoulder, according to the Tampa Bay Times' Rick Stroud. Mayfield was seen wearing a sling on his left arm in the second half of Sunday night's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, but he has a chance to play in Week 13 against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday if he can get back onto the practice field later this week. In the event that the 30-year-old veteran isn't ready to play, the Buccaneers are preparing veteran backup Teddy Bridgewater to start in practice this week. Mayfield's ability to play this weekend could be tied to pain management. He's one of the toughest QBs in the league, so if it comes down to that, he'll probably be out there, but he'd be more of a high-end QB2 for fantasy football at likely less than 100%.

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is 9-for-9 on field goals in the last three games, and he'll look to continue that streak against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day. Butker has struggled with accuracy this season, but his recent stretch of success has brought his season 87.5% field goal percentage closer to his career average of 88.5%. The Chiefs kicker should find plenty of opportunities to extend his field goal streak against the Cowboys in a game with a 52.5 O/U. The Dallas offense is one of the highest-scoring units in the league, and the Chiefs will need to score often to keep pace. Butker is ranked K11 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a borderline K1 in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday, according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Godwin returned in Sunday night's loss to the Los Angeles Rams for the first time since suffering a fractured fibula in Week 5, but he's still being limited in practice as a precaution. In his first game back, Godwin played only 36% of the offensive snaps and caught two of four targets for nine yards. The 29-year-old shouldn't be in any real danger of missing this Sunday's Week 13 contest against the visiting Arizona Cardinals, and he should see more playing time in his second game back. However, Godwin should be viewed as more of a WR4/5 for fantasy purposes as he gets his legs underneath him, and he'll be a receiver to fade for a second straight week if quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is unable to play.

New Orleans Saints RB Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 26.

Fantasy Spin: Kamara's availability for Week 13 is uncertain at this point, so fantasy players should check on his status later in the week. He will see a good amount of targets if he plays and can be a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson has been front and center for the Packers in their passing game as of late, and he looks to keep that up in the Packers' Week 13 game against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. Last week against the Minnesota Vikings, Watson led the Packers in targets with seven and paced the passing game production with a five-catch, 49-yard stat line. Watson has also led the Packers in air yards over the last three games, showing the intent from head coach and playcaller Matt LaFleur and Packers quarterback Jordan Love to get the ball downfield. Detroit allows the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing receivers and is a man-based defense that was just shredded by Wan'Dale Robinson's 9-157-1 line this past Sunday for the Giants. For fantasy purposes, Watson should be considered a high-upside WR3 for Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has had a lackluster last few weeks of fantasy production, but looks to get back on track when the Lions face the Packers in Week 13 on Thanksgiving. After averaging eight targets per game in Week 6 through Week 9, Doubs is averaging just five targets per game in his last three games, with the Packers opting to get back to running the ball much more. In the last three contests, Doubs has had a combined seven receptions, 81 yards, and zero touchdowns in that span. He's taken a backseat in the pecking order to Christian Watson, who has asserted himself as a player who can earn targets. Even with Watson's emergence in recent weeks, this is still a good spot for Doubs. He's a solid flex play for fantasy managers this week, but just know that the points floor is a bit low.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers tight end John FitzPatrick has seen his opportunity with the Packers grow as of late, but is still a player to leave out of fantasy lineups when the Packers head to Detroit to take on the Lions on Thanksgiving. FitzPatrick has supplanted Luke Musgrave in terms of snap share and routes over the last two weeks for the Packers. Despite the increased snaps in the 60 percent range in each of the last two weeks for Green Bay, it's only turned into a combined two receptions and 16 yards on two targets. FitzPatrick's role is not as a receiver, so expecting fantasy production out of the Packers' tight end may not be realistic. Leave FitzPatrick off of your fantasy rosters when the Packers play the Lions on Thanksgiving in Week 13.
