Washington Commanders cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) is still not practicing after being acquired at the trade deadline. Lattimore was acquired by the Commanders in a move that signaled they are all in on this season but he has not played since Week 8 when he was still a member of the New Orleans Saints. Lattimore would be a huge boost to a Commanders defensive secondary that has already limited opposing passing offenses to 184.4 yards per game in 2024. Lattimore's experience would be great for the less experienced corners in Washington. Lattimore's progress throughout the week should be monitored. However, if he has trouble getting on the practice field in any capacity on Thursday, it seems unlikely that he will play in Week 12 against the Dallas Cowboys. If Lattimore misses another week, it would be great news for Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush and wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (back/foot). Lamb seems poised to succeed against the Commanders no matter what. Not having Lattimore on the field would make life that much easier for Lamb who is not competing for targets with anyone else on the Cowboys.

New York Giants defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence II (knee) opened up the Week 12 injury report as a limited participant. Lawrence is one of the best defensive tackles in the league. He anchors what is actually a solid New York Giants defense. The Giants host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12. Lawrence and his nine sacks will definitely be needed with Baker Mayfield and company coming to town. Given that Lawrence is a veteran and has played in every game this season, his presence as a limited participant on the injury report this early in the week is of little concern. He is enjoying a career year and should give Mayfield and the skill players in Tampa Bay fits on Sunday provided he remains healthy enough to play.

Miami Dolphins OT Terron Armstead (knee), DT Calais Campbell (non-injury), CB Kendall Fuller (concussion) and S Jordan Poyer (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20. FB Alec Ingold (calf), DT Benito Jones (shoulder), OG Rob Jones (groin, knee), CB Jalen Ramsey (knee) and OT Isaiah Wynn (knee, quadriceps) were limited during practice. LB Tyus Bowser (calf, knee), C Aaron X. Brewer (calf, shoulder), LB Jordyn Brooks (wrist), TE Julian Hill (shoulder), S Jevon Holland (hand, knee) and S Patrick McMorris (calf) fully participated in practice.

Houston Texans DE Denico Autry (knee, oblique), DT Folorunso Fatukasi (foot) and OT Blake Fisher (concussion) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20. LB Azeez Al-Shaair (knee), DE Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) and CB Derek Stingley Jr. (hip) were limited during practice. CB Kamari Lassiter (concussion) fully participated in practice.

Miami Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.

Fantasy Spin: Hill likely will be dealing with the wrist injury for the rest of the season and probably will be able to play in Week 12. He will see a good amount of targets against the New England Patriots and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Miami Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (hip) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.

Fantasy Spin: Mostert was not a factor in the team's last game but did have 88 total yards a few weeks ago. He likely will see a limited amount of touches in Week 12 and can be avoided in most fantasy leagues.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) is listed on the Week 12 injury report after putting in a limited practice session on Wednesday due to a foot ailment. Darnold played the full game in the Week 11 win over the Tennessee Titans but is having his reps limited in the first practice of the week. We'll have a better idea of how serious his injury is after the Vikings hold two more practices on Thursday and Friday. The 27-year-old has slowed down of late in terms of his production, throwing five touchdowns and five interceptions in the last three games. It won't get any easier this weekend if he plays against the division-rival Chicago Bears, whose defense has given up the second-fewest fantasy points per game to the QB position in 2024. Darnold is shaping up as a low-end QB2 play for fantasy managers in Week 12 if he's active.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (lower body) is being listed as limited on the team's practice report on Wednesday, according to a source. Wednesday was the final day of a strengthening program geared towards Hurts' lower body. He's expected to practice in full on Thursday and Friday and play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. The 26-year-old had a down Week 11 with 221 passing yards and no touchdowns, but he did manage to rush for 39 yards and a touchdown. Especially because of the Eagle's propensity to go for QB sneaks at the goal line, Hurts is an elite, must-start QB1 in fantasy each and every week. Hurts should bounce back on Sunday night against a shaky Rams defense. He comes into Week 12 as the QB3 in overall fantasy points through 11 weeks, behind only Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow.

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said on Wednesday that the team is opening the 21-day practice window for linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (wrist) to return from Injured Reserve, and the team is hopeful that he can play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12. Thibodeaux missed a fifth straight game in Week 10 due to a broken wrist, but after having last week's bye to rest up, the 23-year-old could return for New York's defense. The former fifth overall pick in 2022 out of Oregon will be a welcomed addition as they look to slow down a Bucs defense this weekend that could be getting star wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) back. Through five games in 2024 in his third NFL season, Thibodeaux has provided only 12 tackles (eight solo), two sacks and seven QB hits for the G-Men.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (back, foot) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice with multiple injuries. Lamb injured his back in practice last Saturday and was questionable to play on Monday night in the loss to the Houston Texans, but he was active and played 80% of the offensive snaps on his way to eight catches for 93 yards. The 25-year-old pass-catcher must have picked up a foot injury on Monday, and his practice status will be monitored closely to close out the week. The most likely scenario is that the Cowboys are giving their star receiver a little rest on a short week before he faces the division-rival Washington Commanders this Sunday. Lamb's fantasy value isn't as high now that quarterback Cooper Rush is starting under center for the Cowboys, but his Week 11 production shows why he should stay in all starting fantasy lineups if he's active.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (concussion) was unable to practice with the rest of the team on Wednesday. Ferguson suffered a concussion early in the Monday night loss to the Houston Texans and was ruled out quickly. Head coach Mike McCarthy said on Tuesday that Ferguson is fighting an uphill battle to clear the league's concussion protocol on a short week to play on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Commanders. Fantasy managers should be putting the 25-year-old on their benches this week while hoping he'll be able to return to play in the annual Thanksgiving game against the division-rival New York Giants. Backup Luke Schoonmaker stepped in for six catches on 10 targets for 56 yards against Houston, and he could be worth a look as a TE2 streamer in fantasy if you're desperate at the position in Week 12.

From RotoBaller

Dallas Cowboys WR Brandin Cooks (knee) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.

Fantasy Spin: Cooks is working his way back from injury, so it is not known if he will be available to play in Week 12. He will see a few targets if he is cleared to play but can be avoided in most fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (concussion) was listed as a full participant in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Slayton still has a ways to go to clear the league's concussion protocol, but it's a good sign for his availability in Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 27-year-old suffered a concussion in the Week 9 loss to the Washington Commanders and then sat out the loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 in Germany. New York had a bye in Week 11. Slayton has cleared 100 yards in two of his nine games in 2024 but has just one touchdown and will be returning to an offense that is benching quarterback Daniel Jones for the rest of the year. He will also have to fight for targets alongside impressive rookie Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson, which will make Slayton a boom/bust WR4/flex when he returns.

From RotoBaller

New York Giants rookie tight end Theo Johnson (back) finds himself on the Week 12 injury report after being listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Johnson played through the back injury before the Week 11 bye in the loss to the Carolina Panthers in Germany and caught four of his six targets for 37 yards. The 23-year-old should be able to play again this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, barring a setback in practice later this week. At best, Johnson is a low-end TE2/high-end TE3 in fantasy, although perhaps he's more involved in the offense moving forward with the Giants benching quarterback Daniel Jones for Tommy Devito. Johnson has caught 21 of 32 targets for 238 yards and one touchdown in his first 10 NFL games. He's mostly rostered in dynasty/keeper leagues.

From RotoBaller

Tennessee Titans WR Calvin Ridley (illness) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.

Fantasy Spin: Ridley likely will be available for Week 12 as long as he can recover from the illness in the next few days. He has been targeted at least eight times in five of the last six games and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) was listed as a limited practice participant to kick off the week on Wednesday. The Dolphins just held a walkthrough on Wednesday and will likely to continue to limit Hill's practice reps the rest of this year as he plays through a torn ligament in his wrist. The 30-year-old speedster played over 75% of the offensive snaps and caught seven of eight targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Week 11 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. It was the Cheetah's second straight week with a touchdown after scoring his first TD way back in Week 1. Hill should be fine to play in Week 12 against the division-rival New England Patriots and is a must-start in all fantasy lineups as he regains his connection with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Hill had six catches for 69 yards on 10 targets in the Oct. 6 win over the Pats.

From RotoBaller

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (shoulder) was estimated as a full participant on Wednesday during the team's walkthrough practice. LaPorta suffered an AC joint sprain in the Week 10 win over the Houston Texans that caused him to miss last week's blowout win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The week off apparently did the second-year TE well, though, and head coach Dan Campbell is optimistic of LaPorta's chances of returning this Sunday to face the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium. All signs are pointing to the 23-year-old's return this weekend, but fantasy managers should have a backup plan just in case. If he returns, LaPorta will be at worst a low-end TE1 for fantasy managers. He certainly hasn't lived up to his high draft stock after finishing as the TE1 in 2023 as a rookie, and he's currently averaging 7.5 half-PPR points, which ranks 16th among TEs in 2024.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (hamstring) was limited during practice Wednesday, Nov. 20.

Fantasy Spin: Evans has been sidelined for multiple weeks because of the injury but seems to have a decent chance to return to the lineup this week. Fantasy players should monitor the situation because Evans is a starting option in all leagues when active.

From TheHuddle

Tampa Bay Buccaneers DT Greg Gaines (foot), CB Troy Hill (ankle) and CB Zyon McCollum (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 20. S Tykee Smith (knee) and OT Tristan Wirfs (foot, knee) were limited during practice. OG Ben Bredeson (shoulder), CB Jamel Dean (hamstring) and DE William Gholston (knee) fully participated in practice.

From TheHuddle

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey (shoulder) was held out of Wednesday's practice, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN. The Georgia product sustained this injury in their victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday evening. In this game, the 23-year-old brought in six of his nine targets for a season-high 123 yards. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status throughout the week, as he could be in danger of missing Monday's game if he remains sidelined during the week. Since Week 8, the rookie has begun to find some consistency in the passing attack, as he has seen an average of 6.0 targets and 87.5 yards per game. If he can suit up in Week 12, fantasy managers should start him in all formats, as he will be facing the Baltimore Ravens, who have allowed the most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.
