New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson set a career-high in his rookie season with 54 receiving yards in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Johnson caught all five of his targets, averaging 10.8 yards per reception, including a team-long 18-yard grab that tied Malik Nabers for the game's longest receiving play for New York. His steady performance marked the fifth consecutive game with 35 or more receiving yards, underscoring his growing reliability in the offense. With 7.9 fantasy points in Week 13, Johnson continues to emerge as a solid option for fantasy managers, particularly in leagues valuing consistent production at the tight end position.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love was efficient and on point much of the night as the Packers beat the Dolphins 30-17 on Thanksgiving night. Love was 21-of-28 passing for 274 yards with two touchdowns on the night; both strikes to Jayden Reed from three yards out to kick off the scoring and from 12 yards out in the second quarter. Getting back into the swing of things was Love, as he put together back-to-back multi-touchdown efforts since the five-game streak of multiple touchdowns to kick off the 2024 season. With a showdown looming with the Detroit Lions, Love is a low-end fantasy QB1.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers was the focal point of the passing game in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, leading the team with 13 targets, eight receptions, and 69 receiving yards. His 18-yard grab was the longest of the day for the Giants, though his average of 8.6 yards per catch reflected the short-yardage nature of his opportunities. Nabers had a 29-yard fourth-quarter reception wiped out by a holding penalty, adding to a frustrating day that also included two drops. Despite these setbacks, his 11.3 fantasy points underline what you get as a floor with Nabers. Managers should remain optimistic about his consistent involvement in the Giants' offense, even amid some missed opportunities.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. contributed both on the ground and through the air in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He rushed nine times for 32 yards, averaging 3.6 yards per carry, with a longest run of seven yards, and scored a one-yard touchdown following a 28-yard scramble by quarterback Drew Lock. Tracy also caught two passes for 33 yards, bringing his total to 65 yards from scrimmage. His 13.5 fantasy points were solid, though his nine touches marked his lowest involvement since Week 5, as Devin Singletary saw increased action with seven carries. Tracy's reduced workload may be a trend to monitor for fantasy managers moving forward.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary had a quiet outing in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, offering limited fantasy production. He logged seven carries for 23 yards, averaging 3.3 yards per attempt, with a longest run of 7 yards. While Singletary failed to make an impact in the passing game and did not score, his seven carries were notable as they nearly matched team leader Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s nine carries. Despite the increased workload, his 2.3 fantasy points left much to be desired for managers. Singletary's usage remains something to monitor.

New York Giants quarterback Drew Lock made his first start of the season in Thursday's 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, completing 21 of 32 passes for 178 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Lock's lone interception was a costly pick-six, tipping the momentum in Dallas's favor. Despite a modest 5.6 yards per attempt, he showcased mobility with 57 rushing yards, including a pivotal 28-yard scramble that set up a one-yard touchdown run by RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. Lock added a rushing touchdown of his own in the fourth quarter, contributing to his 15.82 fantasy points. However, enduring six sacks and managing just 55 passing yards by halftime highlight the challenges he and the Giants face offensively.

New York Giants defensive end Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck) left Thursday's game with a stinger, according to Dan Salomone of the Giants.com. Before the injury, Nunez-Roches tallied four total tackles, including one solo. With Dexter Lawrence (elbow) and D.J. Davidson (shoulder) also ruled out, the Giants will rely on Elijah Chatman and Armon Watts to see the remaining snaps.

New York Giants defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence (elbow) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. Before the injury, Lawrence tallied three tackles, including two solo tackles. Fantasy managers should expect Rakeem Nunez-Roches and Elijah Chatman to see most snaps for the remainder of the game.

Dallas Cowboys defensive back Josh Butler (undisclosed) left Thursday's game early, according to Jane Slater. Butler attempted to deflect a pass but grabbed his knee before hitting the turf. Butler eventually came off the field with help from the training staff. While he remains sidelined, Jordan Lewis and DaRon Bland will see the majority of snaps.

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Kyle Van Noy (hamstring/neck) remained sidelined during Thursday's practice. Van Noy could be in danger of missing his first game of the season if he is unable to return to practice in some capacity on Friday. Fantasy managers in IDP formats should continue to pay close attention to Friday's injury report. Van Noy has typically operated as a starter throughout the entire season and has averaged 2.2 tackles per game. He has also tallied an impressive eight sacks through 12 games with two pass deflections. If Van Noy cannot suit up against the Philadelphia Eagles, Tavius Robinson would likely see an increase in snaps.

New York Giants defensive tackle D.J. Davidson (shoulder) left Thursday's game early with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return. The 27-year-old defensive tackle sustained this injury in the second quarter. While he remains out, fantasy managers should expect Dexter Lawrence and Rakeem Nunez-Roches to operate as the primary starters on the New York defensive line.

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa (hip/oblique) did not participate in practice for the second straight day, according to Matt Barrows of the Athletic. Fantasy managers in IDP formats should continue monitoring his status on Friday as it will likely clarify his status heading into the weekend. Bosa could not suit up last weekend and now could be in danger of missing his second-straight contest. The edge rusher has tallied 36 tackles (24 solo) and seven sacks through ten games. If Bosa cannot play, fantasy managers should expect Leonard Floyd, Yetur Gross-Matos, and Sam Okuayinonu to see the majority of the snaps on Sunday evening against the Buffalo Bills.

According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (shoulder) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Friday's injury report as it will likely clarify his availability heading into Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. Purdy could not suit up last weekend and ceded starting duties to Brandon Allen. Purdy has enjoyed another excellent fantasy season as he has averaged a solid 23.4 PPR points per game. If Purdy can suit up, he should be considered a solid QB1 in all formats. If not, Allen is best to fade and should only be deployed in deep Superflex formats facing a tough Buffalo defense.

Dallas Cowboys safety Juanyeh Thomas (undisclosed) was carted off the field during Thursday's game against the New York Giants. Thomas was seen grabbing his knee following a kickoff. Thomas scored his first career touchdown last week on a punt return that went for 43 yards. Throughout the season, the 24-year-old has been deployed primarily as a special teams option but did log a season-high 23 defensive snaps last weekend against Washington. As a result, fantasy managers in IDP leagues should expect Malik Hooker and Donovan Wilson to see a slight increase in snaps.

Seattle Seahawks wide receivers DK Metcalf (shoulder) and Tyler Lockett (knee) were non-participants for the second straight day, according to Rich Cimini. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to their status during Friday's practice session as they both could be in danger of missing Sunday's game if they cannot log any practice session. Metcalf returned in Week 11 after a two-game absence due to a knee injury, while Lockett has yet to miss any time this season. Metcalf typically sees the majority of targets every week in the Seattle passing attack. Lockett has seen only three targets in each of the past two games and has moved down to the clear No.3 role in the offense. If either wideout is in danger of missing Sunday's game, Jaxon Smith-Njigba would be in store for an increase in opportunities.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. This is a great sign for the standout running back, as he did not practice on Wednesday. This was also a concern since the Jets were off last weekend. However, seeing him return to practice on Thursday is a positive sign. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status during Friday's practice, as he could carry an injury designation into the weekend. Despite New York's offensive struggles this season, Hall has continued to enjoy a solid campaign, averaging 16.8 PPR points per game. If Hall can suit up this weekend, he should be locked into all lineups as a high-end RB1 facing the Seattle Seahawks.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Lawrence has been sidelined since sustaining this shoulder injury during Week 9's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Friday's injury report as Lawrence would likely carry an injury designation into the weekend if he is unable to update to a full participant. Before the injury, the Clemson product struggled to find consistency this season as he averaged just 222.7 passing yards in each game with an 11:6 TD:INT ratio. If Lawrence can suit up, fantasy managers should view him as a low-end QB1 facing a weak Houston secondary that has allowed the ninth-most PPR points to opposing QBS this season.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) and running back Tyjae Spears (concussion) both logged full practice sessions on Thursday afternoon, according to Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com. Ridley did not participate during Wednesday's practice, and seeing him return to full participation in just one day suggests that the injury was fairly minor. Spears was limited on Wednesday, and seeing him also participate in full is a positive sign for his status this weekend. However, Spears will need to pass the league's concussion protocol before suiting up. Ridley has averaged a strong 90.2 yards over his past five games, while Spears has typically been deployed as the No.2 option behind Tony Pollard. Fantasy managers should continue to view Ridley as a solid WR2, while Spears should be viewed as a low-end flex option.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet caught all three of his targets for 26 yards in their loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday afternoon. Kmet's three targets tied him for the lowest total among Chicago pass catchers. This was a sharp decline from the ten targets he saw last weekend. Throughout the season, Kmet has been unable to string together consistent fantasy performances. He has eclipsed double-digit PPR points on three occasions but fell under 5.0 PPR points in four games. Fantasy managers should continue to view Kmet as a risky TE2 in all formats heading into a Week 14 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore led all Chicago pass catchers with 97 yards during their loss to the Detroit Lions. Moore also brought in a team-high eight receptions and a score off an impressive 15 targets. Moore's touchdown came off a 31-yard pass from Caleb Williams in the fourth quarter. Moore's 15 targets also set a season-high. This was another strong showing for Moore as he tallied 106 yards and a score on seven receptions last weekend. This is a great sign for Moore, as he averaged a mere 6.1 PPR points during Weeks 6 through 10. Despite his inconsistencies this season, fantasy managers should feel confident starting Moore going forward, given the positive trajectory of the Chicago offense. Next week, he will face a tough San Francisco secondary that has allowed the ninth-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts but should still be viewed as a low-end WR2.
