Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young had 263 yards and a touchdown off 21-for-35 passing in Sunday's three-point loss to the Chiefs. He added three carries for 20 yards. The signal-caller has had his share of struggles throughout the 2024-25 campaign. However, Young arguably had his best showing of the season. Head coach Dave Canales remained adamant Young would remain starting for the Week 13 NFC South meeting with the Bucs. Unfortunately, he'll need a few more acceptable performances before fantasy managers consider him a starting option.

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin (knee) returned to Sunday's meeting with the Raiders. He exited in the first quarter because of a knee injury. Fortunately, it doesn't appear it was anything serious. With that in mind, his return should mean less work for Javonte Williams and Audric Estime, although his presence shouldn't jeopardize the duo's workload much.

Dynasty | Titans running back Tony Pollard had 119 rushing yards, three catches and ten receiving yards in a win against Houston. Dynasty Analysis: Pollard wasn't very impressive last season in Dallas, but has surprisingly bounced back this season in Tennessee, looking like a true workhorse in the process. Today was one of his best performances of the season and it certainly looks like he's about as consistent as you could find for a RB2. His dynasty value plunge has halted this season.

Dynasty | Titans quarterback Will Levis completed 18-of-24 passes for 278 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in an upset win over Houston. Dynasty Analysis: While he's been far from dominant, Levis now has more touchdown passes (ten) than interceptions (9) on the season. It doesn't seem like much, but it really is as it looked like he was going to be benched early in the year with the Titans looking for a different long-term option. While that's still a possibility, Levis is at least making Tennessee think twice about it. At this point, he remains a decent hold in dynasty leagues.

Dynasty | Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 27-of-37 passes for 269 yards, added 60 rushing yards and had three touchdowns in a win against Carolina. Dynasty Analysis: The Panthers surprisingly put up a fight against the Chiefs, but Mahomes was just too much to overcome. This hasn't been a strong season for Mahomes statistically, but today reminded everyone he can put up a monster game on any given week. We'll see if this is an anomaly or the start of a solid second half, but any dynasty value plunge Mahomes was experiencing should stop for at least a week.

Dynasty | Panthers rookie Ja'Tavion Sanders had three catches for 49 yards before being carted off with a head injury in the Panthers loss against the Chiefs. Dynasty Analysis: Sanders was taken to a local hospital with a head and neck injury that looked rather scary. It seems he had some movement in his arms, which was promising. There are no real updates at this point, but it seems he may have avoided anything truly concerning. Sanders' dynasty value has been heading up and it should continue if this is nothing more than a precautionary trip to the hospital.

Dynasty | Panthers rookie running back Jonathon Brooks had two carries for seven yards in his NFL debut. Dynasty Analysis: #buzzkill. We figured Brooks was going to be brought along slowly, but this was unforeseen. With Chuba Hubbard taking 16 of the 18 running back carries today, it's clear he's not being replaced any time soon, especially after Hubbard signed a contract extension. At some point, this is likely going to be a much more balanced backfield, but today's performance will keep Brooks on dynasty benches until further notice and could keep his value sinking.

Dynasty | Panthers quarterback Bryce Young completed 21-of-35 passes for 263 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in a loss against Kansas City. Dynasty Analysis: Young hasn't put up anything remotely dominant in terms of box score production, but he's also showing an ability to be a decent game manager as of late - something he hadn't shown at all up until this point. Young added 20 yards on the ground today and is keeping the Panthers in football games. Carolina is going to give him every chance to be successful moving forward based on their investment in him. At this point, Young's dynasty value has flattened out as it seems he may just be turning a corner.

Dynasty | Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush completed 24-of-32 passes for 247 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in a win against Washington. Dynasty Analysis: A case can be made the Cowboys have no reason to even attempt to win games at the moment, but don't tell Rush, as he was pretty solid today. While not yet an option in dynasty leagues, Rush could be a lineup possibility moving forward should he build on today's surprising performance. Rush doesn't have much dynasty value as a stopgap player, but he should at least be on rosters at the moment.

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (head/neck) was released from the hospital. He had three catches for 49 yards in the narrow loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. However, the 21-year-old took a scary hit late in the contest and landed on his head, resulting in the rookie getting carted off the field and transported to the hospital. Fortunately, it's sounds like he's doing better than most expected, considering he was hospitalized long. Even better, head coach Dave Canales reported Sanders is moving his extremities. It appears he'll have an uphill climb to get cleared for the Week 13 matchup with the Bucs. But if Sanders doesn't play, Tommy Tremble would likely fill the hole in the lineup.

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson brought in seven of nine targets for 114 yards in his team's 30-27 win over their division-rival Chicago Bears. It was a slow start for the sixth-year TE, as he was held to two receptions and 12 yards through the third quarter. However, he came alive in the fourth quarter and overtime, reeling in passes of 20, 29, and 34 yards. That 29-yard reception would help Minnesota seal the game, setting up a John Parker Romo game-winning field goal with just over two minutes remaining in the extra frame. It was an excellent rebound for Hockenson, coming off a two-catch, 13-yard performance in Week 11. He'll again be a solid option next Sunday when the Vikings line up against the Arizona Cardinals in a home tilt.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) didn't return to Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. There were only seconds left on the clock. However, the game ended with Ekeler exiting due to a concussion. According to head coach Dan Quinn, the veteran will undergo further testing. But with Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) and Ekeler both banged up in Week 12, there's a chance both players may miss the Week 13 meeting with the Titans. If so, Jeremy McNichols would likely handle most of the work out of the backfield.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison reeled in eight of nine targets for 162 yards and a touchdown in Week 12's 30-27 overtime victory over the Chicago Bears. The second-year wideout was busy in this one, leading his team in catches and receiving yardage while tying TE T.J. Hockenson for the team lead in targets. Addison picked up chunks of yards all afternoon and ripped off two huge plays to help Minnesota take down their division rivals. He hauled in a 45-yard pass late in the first quarter to set up his own 2-yard TD one play later, but he wasn't done there. On the first play of the third quarter, the 22-year-old caught a corner route between two defenders, broke a tackle, and scampered up the sideline for a 69-yard gain. It was a career day for the former USC Trojan -- setting new career highs in receptions and receiving yardage. He'll look to keep the good times rolling next Sunday when Minnesota lines up against the Arizona Cardinals at home.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Jordan Whitehead (pectoral) didn't return to Sunday's massive win over the Giants. The veteran had five tackles, including one for a loss. However, he exited the contest because of a pec injury. Of course, the concern in this case would be a tear, which would likely mean surgery. But in the meantime, Whitehead will likely undergo further testing, meaning his status for the Week 13 divisional clash with the Panthers is up in the air. If he can't suit up for that one, Mike Edwards would presumably move up the depth chart.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans made his return to the field on Sunday after missing each of the last three games. Evans posted a nice outing as he hauled in five of his six targets for 68 yards in the win over the New York Giants. The veteran wideout wasn't able to find the end zone, but it was a decent performance from Evans for his first game back in the mix. The 68 yards was a team-high and the five catches were his most since Week 5. Fantasy managers should expect Evans to continue succeeding against the Carolina Panthers in Week 13.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (shoulder) exited Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts. While he had only 37 yards off eight carries, he at least found the end zone. Understandably, fantasy managers are concerned. However, the veteran reported after the game that he will be good to go for Thursday's matchup with the Chicago Bears, adding it was a "smart decision" to rest him after the injury, which suggests he could have returned if needed. With that in mind, players have said things like this before, so fantasy managers should continue to monitor things heading toward the Week 13 NFC North showdown. If Montgomery can't suit up, that will mean even more work for Jahmyr Gibbs.

From RotoBaller

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson hauled in 2-of-5 targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 30-27 victory over their division-rival Chicago Bears. Ouch. There's no way of getting around it -- the 25-year-old was a massive disappointment Sunday afternoon, particularly on a day when fellow wideout Jordan Addison and tight end T.J. Hockenson combined for 15 receptions and 276 yards on 18 targets. Jefferson's yardage output, target, and reception total were all season lows, and he put up a stinker for the first time in 2024. It's better than a goose egg -- but not by much. He'll look to bounce back in Week 13 when the Vikings host the visiting Arizona Cardinals.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton put together a handful of strong performances heading into the Week 12 matchup against the New York Giants. Sadly, fantasy managers who started Otton this week received a dud from him. Otton hauled in one of his three targets for 10 yards in the win over the New York Giants. The assumption is that the return of wide receiver Mike Evans would take away some of the targets from Otton. However, the expectation was that Otton would still be able to do more than a 10-yard performance. Fantasy managers can be hopeful for a bounce back performance from Otton during next week's game against the Carolina Panthers.

From RotoBaller

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones rushed 22 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in his team's 30-27 overtime win over the Chicago Bears. He added 23 yards on 3-of-4 receiving and coughed up a fumble. The 29-year-old matched his highest carry count of 2024 and set a new season-high with his rushing total. It was an excellent bounce-back effort from Jones, who was coming off his lowest fantasy output of the season. He's scored just four touchdowns this season, but the touches and yardage total have been there -- so he may be due for some positive regression in the TD department over the coming few weeks. The former Green Bay Packer will get another decent matchup next Sunday when Minnesota squares off against the Arizona Cardinals at home.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) sustained an ankle injury during their loss to the Dallas Cowboys and only logged five carries for 13 yards. He caught one of his two targets for 11 yards as well. Robinson sustained his first ankle injury in the opening quarter but was able to return shortly after. However, later in the second half, Robinson suffered another injury to his ankle and was unable to return. Fantasy managers should closely monitor his status throughout the week, as he could be in danger of missing next weekend's game. In addition, No.2 running back Austin Ekeler (concussion) sustained an injury in the final minutes. If both running backs were to sit out in Week 13, Jeremy McNichols should be expected to operate as the lead back.
