New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said after the Week 12 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday that quarterback Tommy Devito will make the start in Week 13 on Thanksgiving on Thursday against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys "if he's healthy." DeVito got the wind knocked out of him on the final drive of the game in the fourth quarter and left for a play before coming back in. After returning, he took another big hit and didn't look great leaving the stadium. The 26-year-old signal-caller probably won't do much in practice from Monday through Wednesday, but we'd expect him to be out there against Dallas after going 21-for-31 for 189 yards with no TDs or interceptions in the 30-7 blowout loss to the Bucs. Dallas' defense has been disappointing in 2024, but they put up a spirited effort in the upset win over Washington on Sunday. DeVito will remain a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues if he plays.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (shoulder), who injured his right shoulder in the Week 12 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday, is considered week-to-week and is a long shot to play in Week 13 against the New England Patriots, according to a source. However, the belief is he didn't suffer a major injury, so perhaps Downs will be ready to go in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos after the team's bye in Week 14. If the 23-year-old is unable to go against New England, it will mean that Michael Pittman Jr., Alec Pierce and rookie Adonai Mitchell will start in three-receiver sets. Downs caught just three of his seven targets for 27 yards on Sunday against the Lions but had become the team's leading receiver in previous weeks. He's up to 53 receptions for 594 yards and four TDs in 10 games in his second NFL season and deserves to be stashed until he can return to the fold in Indy.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. seemed to have increased activity, despite what the stat sheet said, in the 16-6 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Harrison Jr. caught three passes for 47 yards on six targets, the second most on the team. He has had a boom-or-bust season, making it challenging for fantasy managers to decide whether or not to play him. Harrison Jr. was also one toe away from scoring a go-ahead touchdown, but he couldn't get his foot inbounds inside the pylon. Although he had three catches, the Cardinals schemed up plays to get him the ball, but the execution just wasn't there on any front. They have a tough matchup against the Vikings in Week 13, and Harrison Jr. will once again be a boom-or-bust start.

In Week 12, Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore turned in a standout performance in the team's narrow 30-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Moore finished with seven receptions for 106 yards and a touchdown, showing signs of improvement after a few quiet weeks. He also contributed in the rushing game, adding one carry for 10 yards. It was encouraging to see Moore used more creatively within the offense. His touchdown came on a well-designed screenplay that allowed him to waltz into the end zone untouched. He also made several plays where he was able to get in space, using his quickness and shiftiness to make defenders miss and generate big yardage. With a quick turnaround, Moore and the Bears will look to build on this performance when they face the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday.

On Sunday, Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen turned in a massive performance in the team's 30-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Allen finished with nine receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown and led the team with 15 targets, solidifying himself as quarterback Caleb Williams' go-to option throughout the game. Especially in short-yardage situations, Allen came up big, making key catches to move the chains when the Bears needed them most. This game showcased the best version of Allen we've seen this season, as he made impactful plays at critical moments, including a substantial late fourth-quarter touchdown. However, his performance was marred by a notable mistake: a dropped pass on 4th down when the Bears were deep in Vikings territory. Despite the misstep, this was Allen's best game of the year. With a quick turnaround, he and the Bears will face the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday.

In Week 12, Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze delivered a solid performance in the team's 30-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Odunze finished with five receptions for 39 yards but was kept out of the end zone for another week. While the other Bears playmakers were more involved in this contest, limiting Odunze's opportunities, he still made several key plays. Late in the game, with the Bears needing to generate big plays to stay in the contest, Odunze was targeted and showed his ability to step up in crucial moments. Although he didn't find the end zone, the rookie wideout continues to demonstrate promise as a dependable option. With a quick turnaround, Odunze and the Bears will face the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday, looking to bounce back.

In Week 12, Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had a standout outing in the team's narrow 30-27 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Kmet finished with seven receptions for 64 yards, marking a significant improvement from his recent performances. Seeing the Bears' new offensive coordinator continue to feature Kmet after his increased usage in the previous week's game was encouraging. While Kmet had a strong performance overall, he did have an unfortunate drop on an easy first-down catch that stalled a Bears drive and led to a punt. Despite the miscue, Kmet's involvement in the offense is a positive sign, and it's clear the Bears are trying to get the ball to their veteran tight end. With a quick turnaround, Kmet and the Bears will look to bounce back against the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday.

On Sunday, Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson made an impact in the team's Week 12 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. While his offensive snaps were limited, Johnson made the most of his opportunities, rushing twice for 2 yards and a touchdown. As the Bears' primary short-yardage and goal-line back, Johnson converted a crucial touch near the end zone into a score. He also caught one pass for 10 yards, adding a small but solid contribution to the passing game. Johnson's fantasy value remains largely touchdown-dependent, especially as long as D'Andre Swift remains healthy and continues to dominate the backfield. If Johnson can maintain his role in the red zone, he'll continue to be a viable fantasy optionalbeit with a boom-or-bust profile. With a quick turnaround, the Bears will face the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday.

On Sunday, Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift had a challenging outing in the team's Week 12 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Swift rushed 13 times for just 30 yards, marking his worst performance in recent memory, though it came against a tough Vikings defense. While the running game was largely ineffective, Swift made his presence felt in the passing game, hauling in three catches for 35 yards. Despite being bottled up on the ground, Swift sparked the offense with a key reception that helped set up a touchdown drive. However, in disappointing news for Swift fantasy managers, the touchdown run went to his backup, Roschon Johnson, who has become the Bears' go-to option in goal-line and short-yardage situations. With a quick turnaround, Swift and the Bears will look to rebound against the NFC-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Thursday.

This Sunday, Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams faced a tough test against the Minnesota Vikings in their Week 12 OT loss. Despite the challenging matchup, Williams showcased his potential in a standout performance. He completed 32 of 47 passes for 340 yards and two touchdowns, demonstrating impressive accuracy and poise under pressure. Williams also added 33 rushing yards, leading the Bears' ground game. One of his most memorable plays came when he rolled out and delivered a perfect sideline pass to D'Andre Swift, a throw that only a handful of quarterbacks can make. Williams displayed excellent field awareness and was able to distribute the ball effectively to all his playmakers. With the Bears now shifting their focus to the NFC-leading Detroit Lions, they'll have a quick turnaround, facing off on Thanksgiving Thursday in a critical divisional matchup.

The Denver Broncos defense/special teams unit came into a tasty Week 12 matchup against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders as an elite option. While they didn't go off in the 29-19 win, they gave a strong performance by recording an interception, a fumble recovery and five sacks to sweep their division rivals on the season. Cornerback Brandon Jones' interception of quarterback Gardner Minshew II in the second half nearly went for six points, and the team's other turnover came on a sack and fumble from backup Desmond Ridder after a season-ending broken collarbone for Minshew. Denver's D added 10 QB hits, and they ranks second in the NFL in QB pressures on the year. They did it without standout edge rusher Zach Allen, who was inactive with a heel injury. In Week 13 against turnover-prone Browns QB Jameis Winston, the Broncos D/ST will again be a must-start in fantasy.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner was productive through the air but couldn't get anything going on the ground in the 16-6 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Conner was limited to just eight yards on seven carries, as the Cardinals were repeatedly beaten at the point of attack. However, Conner still found a way to contribute, hauling in all five of his targets for 41 yards. He was expected to play a larger role given the circumstances of a tough divisional game on the road, but the ineffectiveness of the Cardinals' run game forced them to shift to a pass-first attack as they fell behind on the scoreboard. Conner is due for a bounce-back performance when the Cardinals travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings.

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams had a disaster of a performance in the 29-19 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders in Week 12 on Sunday a week after taking over lead-back duties in Denver's backfield. Williams had a team-high eight carries but produced minus-two yards while catching two of four targets for just six yards. In a great matchup against a banged-up and floundering Raiders defense, the 24-year-old fell flat and has quickly become an avoidable RB3/flex in a Broncos backfield that appears to be playing musical chairs in a three-man committee that also involves Jaleel McLaughlin, who had a team-high 44 rushing yards, and rookie Audric Estime. He has now had single-digit carries in each of the last three games and figures to continue to share the load with McLaughlin and Estime in Week 13 versus the Cleveland Browns.

We recommended starting Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz in all fantasy formats in a good Week 12 matchup against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, and he did not disappoint. Lutz made a season-high five field goals -- with two from 50-plus yards out and a long of 54 -- while also connecting on both of his extra-point opportunities. Denver's offense didn't have much trouble moving the ball up and down the field against a banged-up Raiders offense on their way to 29 points on the day, and Lutz took full advantage. With the strong performance, Lutz came out of Sunday's action as the top fantasy kicker for Week 12. With Denver's offense peaking under improving quarterback Bo Nix, Lutz has become a weekly top-12 consideration at the position in fantasy. He now ranks fourth among all kickers in 2024 in total fantasy points.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. saw some work both on the ground and through the air in the team's 29-19 victory on Sunday. He ended the game with two carries for negative two yards and five targets which he turned into three receptions for 44 yards. Mims' speed and big play ability have made him a viable flex option in deeper leagues given the matchup, but he hasn't shown the consistency just yet. The Broncos take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 13.

The Philadelphia Eagles defense held the Los Angeles Rams to 20 points, racked up five sacks, and recovered a fumble during the team's 37-20 win on Sunday night. This was the seventh game in a row where the team has held the opposing offense to 20 points or fewer scored and less than 300 yards gained in total. Since the bye, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has made this unit into one of the best in football and it has led to solid success for fantasy purposes. It will be tough to suggest streaming the Eagles next week against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens, but they are a great stash with the Panthers, Steelers, and Cowboys on the schedule in three of the four weeks after.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd enjoyed his best game as a Titan in the 32-27 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday. The former Cincinnati Bengal finished the game with six receptions for 55 yards on six targets and even had a pass attempt but couldn't complete it. Tennessee's passing game, led by Will Levis and Mason Rudolph has been inconsistent, to say the least. Even though DeAndre Hopkins left, Boyd hasn't seen much of an uptick in production just yet. He'll try to find the end zone for the first time against the Washington Commanders in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright saw a bit more work during the team's 34-15 win over the New England Patriots. The rookie back received seven carries and turned them into 28 yards. He also had one target but wasn't able to haul it in. One silver lining is that Wright finished ahead of Raheem Mostert in terms of touches, but his upside is still very limited when all three backs are healthy. He'll look to find some more success in a short week as they play the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott hit three field goals from 21, 26, and 31 yards away and converted all four extra point attempts during the team's 37-20 win over the Los Angeles Rams. After his worst performance of the season in Week 11, the veteran kicker was perfect in LA Sunday night and had a solid fantasy performance. Predicting Elliott's big games has been tough this season, but the Eagles offense has been more conservative as of late and has decided to take points when they can rather than go for it on fourth down. Elliott remains boom-or-bust but will be a streamer in any game the Eagles play poor defenses.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Jordan White (pectoral) may have suffered a torn pec according to Ian Rapoport. The seventh-year defensive back will undergo an MRI to confirm if it is torn, and his season will be over if that is the case. He's started in all 11 games this season and racked up 76 total tackles (47 solo), two tackles for loss, one QB hit, and three passes defended. The Bucs signed Mike Edwards last week, so he'll likely move into the starting spot.
