Chicago Bears running back Travis Homer (head) had three catches for 11 yards in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. With Roschon Johnson (concussion) out, Homer took over as the No. 2 option behind D'Andre Swift. Unfortunately, he wasn't on the field long before exiting in the second quarter. The 26-year-old will probably undergo more tests in the coming days. But Darrynton Evans would be in line to support Swift if Johnson and Homer aren't available in Week 15 versus the Vikings.

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Isaac Guerendo (foot) will undergo an MRI exam on Monday after potentially spraining his foot in Week 14. With Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) sidelined, the 24-year-old took over in the backfield in Sunday's win over the Bears. He played well, amassing 78 yards and two scores off 15 carries and adding 50 yards off two receptions. It was a spirited performance for those that picked Guerendo up off the waiver wire and started him this week, but the elation was short-lived. If he can't suit up in Week 15 versus the Rams, Patrick Taylor Jr., who had 25 yards and a touchdown off seven attempts against Chicago, will likely handle the starting duties and will be a popular waiver-wire addition.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (back) was active for Sunday's win over the Raiders. However, he didn't see much action, amassing three yards off four carries and adding one catch for 15 yards. The rookie exited in the second quarter and was progressively downgraded to out. Fortunately, it doesn't appear as if he was re-injured, with ESPN's Jenna Laine reporting that Irving was held out to avoid "any setbacks" regarding his health. With the Bucs currently sitting atop the NFC South, the team will need him on the field in Week 15 versus the Los Angeles Chargers. It sounds as if Irving should be good to go. But if not, Rachaad White, who had two touchdowns in Week 14, will be in line for more work.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught his fifth touchdown of the season in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. He finished third on the team in targets, but he caught all five for 82 yards. Smith-Njigba caught passes at all three levels of the field. He continues to be excellent for fantasy football, especially with the way the touchdowns have flowed of late. Smith-Njigba has not fallen below 69 receiving yards since Week 7. He is now operating and producing as if he is Seattle's No. 1 wide receiver. That mantle likely still technically belongs to DK Metcalf, but Smith-Njigba is making a great case for himself. Look for him to continue this streak in Week 14 when Seattle hosts the Green Bay Packers.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet was excellent in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. Charbonnet carried the ball 22 times for 134 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught seven passes for 59 yards. As expected, Charbonnet received massive volume while filling in for an injured Kenneth Walker III (ankle/calf). Charbonnet scored almost 40 PPR fantasy points. He actually looked better than Walker has of late. Charbonnet averaged 6.24 yards per carry and looked smooth as a pass catcher. He also delivered on a massive 51-yard scamper to the end zone in the first half. The Seahawks love what Walker brings to the table, but it is hard to deny how well Charbonnet has played in his stead this season. Perhaps this performance will earn Charbonnet more opportunities moving forward. Walker's status for Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers is unknown. If Walker were to miss or be limited, Charbonnet would step right back into an RB2 role.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Williams logged three receptions for 36 yards on four targets in a 27-14 victory over the Cleveland Browns. With George Pickens (hamstring) inactive, Williams stepped up for quarterback Russell Wilson, particularly down the field in contested catch situations. If Pickens were to miss extended time, Williams would likely become an intriguing fantasy asset, but it's difficult to project him for consistent opportunities otherwise. It is possible, however, that the veteran is more involved going forward. He is worth rostering in bestball and dynasty formats, but Williams will remain off the fantasy radar in most redraft leagues heading into a Week 15 meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith completed 24 of 30 passes for 233 yards and a touchdown in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. Smith looked poised all game. He only took what the defense gave him and led the Seahawks on several long drives. Smith saw low passing volume for the fourth game in a row as the Seahawks continue to try and commit to their running game. The formula is working, though, as the team has now won four straight games with this strategy. The shift in philosophy is certainly hurting Smith in fantasy. Earlier in the season, Smith relied on heavy passing volume and delivered with high yardage output. His yardage totals have still been solid, but he is sorely lacking in the touchdown department. That trend projects to continue as we head into hard-hitting winter football down the stretch. Smith is simply a low-upside streamer at this point in the season and likely is not even worth a roster spot most weeks.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught no passes on one target in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. Lockett has been completely phased out of the Seahawks' offense. He dropped a would-be touchdown in the end zone on his only target. Otherwise, quarterback Geno Smith was focused entirely on wide receivers DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba and running back Zach Charbonnet. Lockett is a completely forgotten man in the Seahawks' offense. He is a great locker-room presence and a savvy veteran on the field. However, he is not integral to the game plan any longer. At this point, Lockett should not be rostered in fantasy. He will only find relevance should Metcalf or Smith-Njigba go down due to injury.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf finished second on the team in targets with six in Week 14. He only caught four passes for 49 yards. Metcalf has historically not had the best games against the Arizona Cardinals and that continued in Week 14. Seattle's passing game continues to run primarily through fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Metcalf has not exceeded 70 receiving yards or caught a touchdown since Week 7. He has played second fiddle to Smith-Njigba consistently, but the connection between quarterback Geno Smith and Metcalf has simply not been the same over the last several weeks. Metcalf started the season as a top-10 wide receiver in fantasy but has faded to flex value since he returned from a sprained MCL in Week 11. The Seahawks need Metcalf to produce in order to fully unlock their offense. As such, he is always a good bet to bounce back. He will have a tough task to do so in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney hauled in six of seven targets for 142 yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Vikings. Mooney ripped off chunk plays of 24, 28, and 49 yards on the way to logging the highest yardage total of the season and of his career. The 27-year-old has now recorded six or more targets in 10 of 13 games this season, catching six or more passes in three of them, and now has a slight edge for the team lead in receiving yards with 873 compared to Drake London's 866 yards. The fifth-year pro will look to keep rolling in Week 15 against the Raiders who allowed three different wide receivers to catch four passes for at least 59 yards while allowing two touchdowns to wideouts in Week 14. Mooney figures to be in the WR3 range again for that matchup.

From RotoBaller

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the Bears. With Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) on the shelf, Guerendo took over as the team's top option out of the backfield. He has played well, too, running for 78 yards and two scores off 15 carries, adding two grabs for 50 yards. If the 24-year-old doesn't return, Patrick Taylor Jr., who already has a touchdown, will likely continue to lead the way.

From RotoBaller

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III hauled in just one of his four targets for four yards in a 27-14 win over the Cleveland Browns. Austin was questionable earlier in the week due to a concussion he suffered in Week 13 but managed to clear the league's protocols and suit up on Sunday. However, he failed to make much of an impact, even with George Pickens (hamstring) sidelined. Austin, who has four touchdowns this season, has flashed potential as a vertical threat but has not been nearly consistent enough to warrant weekly consideration for fantasy purposes. With Mike Williams getting more involved this week, Austin is only worth rostering in deeper dynasty formats ahead of a Week 15 clash with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was able to break out of his slump during Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Otton hauled in three of his last four targets for a team-high 70 yards in the win. It's worth noting that a majority of Otton's yardage came on a 44-yard reception, but at least fantasy managers were able to get something out of Otton. The third-year tight end has taken a backseat in this offense since wide receiver Mike Evans returned to the mix. At this point, fantasy managers shouldn't consider Otton anything more than a TE2 going forward.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' defense held the Cleveland Browns to 14 points while recording two interceptions, three sacks, and a fumble recovery in a Week 14 victory. Defensive tackle Cameron Heyward led the way with two sacks while defensive back James Pierre and nose tackle Keeanu Benton came away with picks off Browns quarterback Jameis Winston. Pittsburgh has proven to be a matchup-proof fantasy option this season as its defense is capable of making game-altering plays on any given Sunday. That said, fantasy managers who want to play it safe may want to look for another DST in Week 15 when the Steelers travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles.

New York Jets WR Davante Adams caught nine passes for 109 yards and one touchdown against the Miami Dolphins in Week 14. He was targeted 11 times during the game.

Fantasy Spin: Adams has gone back-to-back games with a touchdown and has been targeted 23 times over the last two weeks. He will continue to be a main target for Aaron Rodgers and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins has now gone four consecutive weeks without a touchdown pass after Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Vikings. The 36-year-old completed 23 of 37 passes for 344 yards and threw an additional two picks, now with a 0:8 TD:INT over this four-game stretch in which Atlanta has lost each game. The Falcons have gone from 6-3 and in first place in the division to 6-7 and a game behind Tampa Bay while falling out of even qualifying for a Wild Card spot. Calls for Michael Penix Jr. may grow louder, but in the postgame press conference, head coach Raheem Morris reaffirmed that Cousins will be the team's quarterback. If that remains true, the veteran will get the Raiders in Week 15, a team that had allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to QBs coming into the week and allowed Baker Mayfield to throw for almost 300 yards and three TDs on Sunday. Even so, with the prospect of being benched combined with continued poor play, Cousins looks like he'll be a risky, low-end QB play again in Week 15.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard has seen his role increase in the offense over the last three games. On Sunday, Shepard hauled in four of his six targets for 63 yards in the win over the Las Vegas Raiders. This marks the third game in a row that Shepard has finished with at least four receptions. The 31-year-old has done a nice job when called upon, but isn't offering a ton of fantasy value right now. Shepard should continue to be treated as a flex option heading into next week's matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Shepard has shown that he is capable of at least a handful of catches each week.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (shoulder, knee) won't play in Sunday night's meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs. The wideout was labeled as a "true game-time decision." Unfortunately, the latest update just confirms what most fantasy managers had already anticipated. Without McConkey, who has had a quality rookie season, Quentin Johnston and Joshua Palmer are in line for more attention from Justin Herbert. Will Dissly should also get more involved.

From RotoBaller

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled both of his field goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries in a 27-14 win over the Cleveland Browns. Per usual, Boswell was money on Sunday and delivered when called upon from 30 and 54 yards out. He was quiet in the second half as Pittsburgh managed to find the end zone twice but extended his streak to 29 consecutive successful PATs this season. Although the imposing Philadelphia Eagles defense is on tap for Week 15, Boswell will remain a must-start throughout the fantasy playoffs.

From RotoBaller

Updating a previous report, New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr (hand) is feared to have suffered a fractured left hand, source said Sunday, Dec. 8. The hand is his non-throwing hand.

Fantasy Spin: It appears Carr is set to miss more time, likely the rest of a lost season in New Orleans, which means Spencer Rattler or Jake Haener will take over under center going forward.
