According to Turron Davenport of ESPN, Tennessee Titans defensive tackle T'Vondre Sweat (eye) went to the locker room and is questionable to return in Week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts. The 23-year-old was poked in the eye in the game's opening quarter. Sweat did not tally a tackle before exiting. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Sebastian Joseph-Day and Keondre Coburn to see an increase in snaps. Over his past five contests, Sweat has averaged 3.0 tackles per game with one total sack and pass deflection.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (concussion) exited Sunday's game against the Commanders. Hurts has struggled on the throwing end so far, amassing 11 yards off 1-for-4 passing. But he at least gotten it done on the ground, rushing for 41 yards off three carries. Unfortunately, the signal-caller took a hard hit in the first quarter and was taken to the locker room for a concussion evaluation. Fantasy managers will anxiously await an update. However, as long as Hurts is off the field, Kenny Pickett, who has already thrown a touchdown, should handle things under center.

According to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports, Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) has a Grade 1 calf strain, a recent MRI revealed. As expected, the 30-year-old has had a quality season, totaling 37 tackles, five sacks, and one forced fumble. He exited Saturday's win over the Houston Texans. However, while the recent update is encouraging, Jones is far from a lock to be available on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If he's not out there, the Chiefs would be down one of their top defensive options, with Michael Pennel Jr. in line to see more snaps.

After considering three high-level medical opinions, Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (knee) has decided to forego surgery. He will rehab his MCL in hopes of returning to football action in time for the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs. Montgomery has been a major contributor in Detroit this season, totaling 775 rushing yards, 341 receiving yards, and 12 touchdowns. The Lions should feel good about their backfield with Jahmyr Gibbs leading the way, but getting Montgomery back in January would give them a major boost in their quest to make the Super Bowl.

The Seattle Seahawks plan to announce Zach Charbonnet as their starting running back against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 16, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Although Kenneth Walker III is healthy and cleared to play, the first snap of the game will likely belong to Charbonnet. This represents a change in the lineup from earlier in the season, but it's not much of a surprise given how well Charbonnet has played lately. Over the last two weeks, he has 188 rushing yards, eight catches, 71 receiving yards, and two touchdowns. He has averaged 24.1 fantasy points per game (PPR) while filling in for Walker this year. Meanwhile, Walker is averaging 16.7 points per contest. Both players have RB1 upside, but we'd rather start Charbonnet this week given that Seattle may be inclined to ride the hot hand against a stingy Minnesota run defense.

Carolina Panthers defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (knee, illness) is officially active for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran defender had been listed as questionable but was widely expected to play after logging a full practice on Friday. Clowney has appeared in 11 games this season, amassing 36 tackles and 3.5 sacks. This week, he'll be tasked with slowing down a Cardinals offense centered around Kyler Murray and James Conner.

Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Meanwhile, guard Graham Glasgow (knee) is inactive. Both players had been listed as questionable after being limited in practice on Friday. Branch has appeared in 13 games this season, making a big impact with his 84 tackles, four interceptions, and one forced fumble. Glasgow's absence is huge news for Detroit as he had not previously missed a single snap this season. He'll likely be replaced by Kayode Awosika at the left guard position.

Washington Commanders safety Jeremy Chinn (concussion) is officially active for Week 16 against the Philadelphia Eagles. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after logging a full practice on Friday. The 26-year-old has not yet missed a game this season, amassing 84 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, and one interception.

New York Jets defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (hamstring) will not be active for the team's Week 16 matchup on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Rams. In addition to Williams, the Jets defense will also be without cornerback Michael Carter II (back) and defensive lineman Leki Fotu (knee). Despite missing practice all week, Williams was listed as questionable for this weekend. If the 27-year-old pass-rusher had suited up, he would have been on a scaled-back snap count against the Rams, making him avoidable for fantasy IDP leagues. With Williams sidelined, expect pass-rushers Solomon Thomas, Bruce Hector and Leonard Taylor to see more run on the defensive line for the Jets in Week 16. Against a Rams offense with two of the best receivers in the game and with Williams out, the Jets defense should be avoided in fantasy lineups.

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (neck) is officially active for the Week 16 divisional contest on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Gay missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday due to his neck injury but returned to a full practice session on Friday and will serve as the starting placekicker this weekend. At best, Gay is a deep-league streaming option in the fantasy playoffs for a Colts offense that has struggled to move the ball consistently all year behind second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson. The 30-year-old veteran booter has been solid for the Colts this season, though, making 24 of his 27 field-goal attempts and all 23 of his extra-point opportunities. While Gay has been solid from an efficiency standpoint, his lack of volume on field-goal tries makes him more of a low-upside fantasy kicking option.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (hip) and wide receiver Ashton Dulin (ankle) are both active on Sunday and will suit up against the division-rival Tennessee Titans in Week 16. Neither player is worth attention in fantasy in starting lineups, though. Alie-Cox hasn't missed a regular-season game since 2020. The 31-year-old veteran tight end is used mostly as a blocker for the Colts, although he'll occasionally see some red-zone looks. He cannot be trusted in fantasy with only 11 catches for 132 yards and one touchdown in 14 games in 2024. Dulin could actually see more of the field on Sunday with Alec Pierce out with a concussion, but he's still a long shot to stand out in the box score at the end of the day. The 27-year-old pass-catcher will still likely struggle for targets. He hasn't caught a pass since Week 2.

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk (abdomen) is officially inactive in Week 16 against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Folk was unable to practice on Wednesday and Thursday before putting in a limited session on Friday, but he will not be active for Tennessee this weekend. Instead, rookie Brayden Narveson was signed from the practice squad to the 53-man active roster on Saturday in order to take over kicking duties in Tennessee for the week. Fantasy managers that had been using the 40-year-old Folk will obviously need to look in another direction. You can probably do better than Narveson, who made 12 of his 17 field-goal attempts and all 16 of his extra-point chances in six games with the Green Bay Packers earlier this year in his first NFL action.

Carolina Panthers wide receivers Jalen Coker (quad) and David Moore (concussion) are active for Sunday's Week 16 game against the Arizona Cardinals. Both players had been listed as questionable. Coker returned from an injured reserve stint last week and made an impact right away, totaling four catches, 110 yards, and one touchdown on an 87 percent snap share. With Xavier Legette (hip) sidelined, Coker should operate alongside Adam Thielen, giving him significant WR3/FLEX appeal. Meanwhile, Moore cleared concussion protocol this week. He hasn't missed a game all season, catching 28 passes for 286 yards and one touchdown. He, too, should handle an increased workload, but he'll likely be behind both Thielen and Coker in the pecking order.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder), who was listed as questionable for the Week 16 tilt on Sunday against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts, is active and will serve as the backup to starter Mason Rudolph. After another poor showing in the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in which he threw three more interceptions, the Titans made the move to bench Levis in favor of Rudolph in Week 16. It's unclear if Rudolph will start all three of the final three games of the regular season, but Levis' fantasy stock in superflex and dynasty/keeper leagues is obviously trending down toward the end of the year. In 11 starts in his sophomore season, Levis has completed 63.7% of his passes for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Heading into his third season in the NFL, he could be battling for a backup job in 2025.

Cleveland Browns TE David Njoku (hamstring) is officially active for the Week 16 game.

Fantasy Spin: Njoku did not do much during practice this week but should be a popular target for Dorian Thompson-Robinson this week. He can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to suit up after being a limited participant in practice all week long. The rookie saw his four-game double-digit scoring streak (PPR) come to an end last week, but he still has fantasy appeal in his role as the Giants' primary running back. Even if his injury causes him to lose a couple of touches to Devin Singletary, Tracy should still be deployed as a strong RB3/FLEX option.

From RotoBaller

Arizona Cardinals running back DeeJay Dallas (illness) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. He had been listed as questionable after missing practice on Friday but evidently recovered enough in time to play this weekend. Dallas will be tasked with handling a bigger workload as he backs up James Conner. His sudden rise up the depth chart comes after the Cardinals ruled out Trey Benson (ankle) and placed Emari Demercado (back) on injured reserve. Nevertheless, Dallas can be left on waivers in fantasy leagues with 14 or fewer teams.

Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. (leg) and wide receiver Charlie Jones (groin) are both inactive again for Week 16 against the division-rival Cleveland Browns on Sunday. This will mark Brown's third straight missed game and sixth overall this season since Week 9. With the 28-year-old out again, expect Cordell Volson to make another start at left tackle while protecting quarterback Joe Burrow's blind side. Jones, meanwhile, has not suited up for the Bengals since Week 8 due to his groin injury. The 26-year-old has played in eight games in his second season in the NFL in 2024 and has caught his only target for a five-yard gain. With Jones out yet again, Khalil Herbert and Isaiah Williams will handle return duties on special teams. Brown and Jones will try to get ready to return in what could be a pivotal contest in Week 17 against the Denver Broncos.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders wide receiver K.J. Osborn (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Week 16 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Osborn was claimed off waivers from the New England Patriots earlier this month but has not yet made his Commanders debut. In fact, the 27-year-old has appeared in just seven games this year, catching seven passes for 57 yards and one touchdown. He can be avoided in all fantasy leagues.

From RotoBaller

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (ankle) is officially active on Sunday against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts in Week 16 despite missing practice all week with an ankle injury. Pollard saw fewer snaps than normal in the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, carrying the ball 17 times for 45 yards and a touchdowns, while backfield mate Tyjae Spears saw four carries for five yards and a touchdown, adding a season-high six catches for a season-high 87 yards and a second touchdown. The Colts are one of the best matchups for opposing RBs in the league in 2024, but given Pollard's injury and the chance he shares more work with Spears for a second straight week, fantasy managers may want to consider him more of a low-end RB2 in the fantasy semifinals in most leagues. In the first meeting with Indy back on Oct. 13, Pollard had 17 carries for 93 yards and a touchdown.
