New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 22 of 37 passes for 222 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Maye also rushed for 26 yards, took four sacks, and lost a fumble. Turnovers have been a major issue for the young quarterback in his first season. Through six full games, he has 11 turnovers (seven interceptions and four lost fumbles) and 11 total touchdowns. If he can do a better job protecting the football, he'll boost his fantasy value and create more scoring opportunities for the Patriots. For now, though, he ranks as a QB2 in fantasy football. He does have significant upside heading into Week 13 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels enjoyed a big second half but could not complete the comeback against the Dallas Cowboys as he went 25-for-38 with 275 yards, two passing scores, 74 rushing yards, and an additional rushing score. After a slow first half where the Washington offense scored only three points, Daniels flipped the switch and put 23 on the board in the final 30 minutes. Daniels tallied a rushing score in the third quarter and tacked on two passing scores in the final frame. One was a four-yard strike to Zach Ertz, and the other was an 86-yard catch-and-run to Terry McLaurin. This was a nice bounce-back showing for Daniels, as he has scored just one total touchdown in his previous two games. Despite the slow start, fantasy managers should continue to view Daniels as a QB1 heading into Week 13 when he faces the Tennessee Titans.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield came out of the bye week ready to play in Week 12. Mayfield looked sharp once again as he completed 24-of-30 passing attempts for 294 yards in the win over the New York Giants. Mayfield didn't throw a touchdown or an interception, but he did rush four times for 29 yards and a score. The return of wide receiver Mike Evans was a welcoming sight as the duo connected five times during this game. It's worth noting that Mayfield did briefly exit the game due to a neck stinger, but returned to finish out the game. It wasn't a great fantasy day for Mayfield as the two fumbles didn't help his cause. Fantasy managers should expect a QB1 performance from Mayfield during next week's matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler (undisclosed) left Sunday's game with an undisclosed injury. Ekeler sustained this injury on a kickoff return in the final minutes. After taking the hit, the running back remained on the field for some time but was able to walk off with assistance from the training staff. Before the injury, Ekeler carried the ball nine times for 22 yards and caught two of his three targets for three yards. With Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) leaving the game twice, Ekeler saw most of the snaps for a majority of the afternoon. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status heading into a Week 13 tilt against the Tennessee Titans. If he happens to miss time, Jeremy McNichols could see a significant increase in snaps.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 13 yards on eight carries during Sunday's Week 12 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He also failed to catch either of his two targets. If it's any consolation, he did deliver a two-point conversion in the defeat. Still, the Patriots' lead running back had one of his worst games of the season, demonstrating reduced volume, limited production, and poor efficiency while failing to score a touchdown for the third week in a row. It was a disappointing and somewhat surprising finish from Stevenson given that he had 93 scrimmage yards and one touchdown the last time he faced the Dolphins. Moving forward, he's merely an RB3/FLEX option in fantasy football, including next week against the Indianapolis Colts.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught five of his six targets for 102 yards and a score in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. McLaurin was held in check through most of the afternoon but finally broke free as he tallied an 86-yard score late in the fourth quarter to set up the potential game-tying extra-point attempt. Even though McLaurin was having a quiet game, Daniels still looked his way six times, which was third most on the team, behind only Noah Brown and Zach Ertz. Given his big-play ability, fantasy managers should still view him as a must-start option in Week 13 when he faces the Tennessee Titans.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown brought in six receptions for 71 yards while seeing a team-high of ten targets in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys. This was an impressive showing for Brown as he caught just one pass of four yards last week during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Since Week 6, Brown has slowly begun to earn a permanent role in the Washington passing attack. During this stretch, Brown has seen at least six targets in all but two games. Seeing him draw an impressive target share for some time, fantasy managers in deeper 3WR formats should view Brown as a decent high-floor flex option heading into a Week 13 tilt against the Tennessee Titans.

The New England Patriots defense allowed 34 points, tallied two sacks, and delivered a fumble-recovery touchdown during Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins. While Miami's offense seemed to have its way against New England, the Patriots' defense was able to salvage this week's performance by scoring their first touchdown of the season. Christian Barmore and Brenden Schooler each logged a sack, Marte Mapu forced a fumble, and Christian Gonzalez tallied the scoop-and-score touchdown. New England could be a fringe top-12 fantasy defense next week against the Indianapolis Colts.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins looked like his pre-injury self on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, hauling in five passes for 92 yards and a touchdown in a 32-27 loss. The big receiver scored on a five-yard connection with quarterback C.J. Stroud in the second quarter, his first since returning from injured reserve. Houston targeted the No. 1 receiver nine times, which led the team, but had an overall frustrating day on offense and compiled just 40 yards on the ground. Collins continues to be the top option for the passing game, however, and faces an excellent matchup in Week 13 against Jacksonville.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold completed 22-of-34 passes for 330 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-27 victory over the Chicago Bears. Minnesota was up 24-10 at the end of the third quarter before Chicago came storming back to score 17 fourth-quarter points and tie the game at 27 a piece, sending it to OT. The Bears would get the first possession in the extra quarter but ultimately punt it away, setting up the 27-year-old to orchestrate a 12-play, 83-yard, game-winning drive. Darnold's passing yardage total was a new season-high, and it was the third time this season he'd finish an outing with no turnovers. After a few down weeks, the USC product has turned it around, tossing for 576 yards and four touchdowns over his last two contests. He and the Vikes will get a softer matchup in Week 13 when they host the visiting Arizona Cardinals.

The Tennessee Titans put the clamps on the Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon, holding him to just 22 yards and no touchdowns on 14 carries and pulling off a 32-27 upset. The veteran running back had his lowest rushing output of the season, but did salvage some fantasy value by catching five of six targets for 23 yards. Houston's offensive line had a brutal showing against a talented Tennessee line, and the Texans rushed for just 40 yards as a team. Fortunately for the Texans and fantasy managers who roster Mixon, the Texans are at Jacksonville in Week 13.

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin (knee) exited during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He is officially questionable to return. Local media spotted McLaughlin testing his knee on the sideline in hopes of returning to the contest. At the time of his departure, he had two carries for 29 rushing yards. Javonte Williams and Audric Estime will lead the Denver backfield until McLaughlin can return.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz caught both of his targets for 20 yards in a 32-27 loss to Tennessee. For fantasy managers, the bigger concern was that he was out-targeted by rookie tight end Cade Stover, who drew four targets and caught a touchdown, which Schultz has yet to do this season. The Houston offense in general struggled to establish much of a rhythm, as Tennessee's dominant defensive line held the Texans to just 40 rushing yards. The veteran tight end will face a more favorable matchup next week, however, as Houston travels to take on the slumping Jacksonville Jaguars.

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell caught just three passes Sunday but turned them into 72 receiving yards in a 32-27 loss to Tennessee. The second-year receiver drew five targets, which ranked second on the team in a surprising defeat to a division rival. Houston rushed for a meager 40 yards against the Titans, which put the offense behind the chains for a large portion of the day. Dell and the Texans' up-and-down offense will look for a better day when they take on the struggling Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Houston Texans tight end Cade Stover finished with three catches for 26 yards on four targets and caught his first NFL touchdown on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. It was an all-Ohio State connection, as quarterback C.J. Stroud found the rookie tight end for a 19-yard score in the first quarter. The 24-year-old tight end has been a secondary option in the Texans' offense, but he's also been targeted nine weeks in a row and begun to cut into starter Dalton Schultz's receiving workload. Stover will look for more involvement as Houston travels to Jacksonville in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Despite a 32-27 home loss to Tennessee, the Houston Texans defense/special teams put together a big fantasy day with eight sacks, three turnovers, and another defensive touchdown. The Texans, who also scored last week against Dallas, found the end zone Sunday when safety Jimmie Ward nabbed a pass from Titans quarterback Will Levis and returned it 65 yards for a score. The Texans harassed Levis all day and also recovered two fumbles, but it wasn't quite enough in the defeat. Houston will travel to last-place Jacksonville in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. He finishes Week 12 with one target, zero catches, and 30 punt return yards. There is concern that Raymond could require an extended absence, but we should get more info and confirmation on his status following the conclusion of Sunday's game. Tim Patrick and Allen Robinson will earn more snaps in their depth roles behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.

From RotoBaller

Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre (shoulder) has been downgraded to out and will not return Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. The 25-year-old registered one tackle prior to exiting, so he now has 65 tackles, one forced fumble, and one interception in 2024. Jimmie Ward and M.J. Stewart will earn more opportunities for the duration of Pitre's absence.

San Francisco 49ers left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 12 against the Green Bay Packers. He had been listed as questionable and will ultimately miss his first game of the 2024 season. San Francisco finds itself heavily shorthanded against Green Bay with Williams joining Brock Purdy (shoulder) and Nick Bosa (hip, oblique) on the 49ers' list of inactive players. Jaylon Moore will likely start at left tackle in Williams' absence.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys and is officially questionable to return. This is the second time he has exited the game, as well as the second time he has been listed as questionable. Robinson did return after exiting the first time, but it remains to be seen whether this apparent re-aggravation of the injury forces him out for the rest of the contest. At the time of his departure, Robinson had 13 rushing yards and 11 receiving yards. Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols will lead Washington's backfield for the duration of Robinson's absence.
