Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin (quadriceps) picked up a quadriceps injury in the 31-13 Week 15 win over the visiting Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Before leaving, McLaughlin handled seen carries (a team-high among RBs) for 21 yards (3.0 yards per carry) while adding three catches on three targets for an additional 13 yards through the air. Neither Javonte Williams nor Audric Estime were able to capitalize on McLaughlin's injury, as they combined for 11 carries and 28 yards and three catches (four targets) for 13 yards. It was a disappointing performance from McLaughlin against a Colts defense that has been gashed on the ground all year, but then again, Denver's rushing attack hasn't really done much of anything all season. Heading into a short week on Thursday against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, McLaughlin's availability could be in question. If active, he'll be an avoidable RB3/flex.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray finished the game after leaving in the third quarter due to a hit to the head in the 30-17 win over the New England Patriots. Murray had a solid day in the win, but he did not record a touchdown, which limited his fantasy output. Murray's official stat line was 23-for-30 for 224 passing yards and he added five carries for 11 rushing yards. The Cardinals offense got a much-needed bounce-back win, scoring 30 points in the Week 15 triumph. However, all those touchdowns came on the ground. The Cardinals' passing attack is still working out the kinks after the bye week, but Sunday's performance was a step in the right direction. The Cardinals will travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers in Week 16, where Murray should be able to move the ball through the air.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (shoulder) returned from injury on Sunday, but was only able to corral three of his eight targets for 32 scoreless yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Broncos. With quarterback Anthony Richardson completing less than 50% of his passes in the contest, no receiver had a big day in this offense. The eight targets were second to Michael Pittman Jr.'s nine, but it was at least an encouraging sign that more bountiful fantasy days could be ahead if Richardson can fix the accuracy issue. With the fantasy football playoffs upon us, there isn't much time to resolve it though and the 23-year-old is probably too risky to play in most leagues. The Titans, next week's opponent, are middle of the pack versus wide receivers in terms of fantasy points allowed, and just allowed 14 catches for 182 yards to Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, but Downs will be a dicey WR option given his environment.

The Denver Broncos defense/special teams unit showed why they are a top-five fantasy unit in the Week 15 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Empower Field. After letting the Colts drive down on their opening possession in the first quarter to score a touchdown, Denver's D stiffened and finished with another impressive showing thanks to four turnovers (two interceptions, two fumble recoveries), two sacks and another pick-six in the 31-13 win. Colts running back Jonathan Taylor gift-wrapped one of the fumbles by letting go of the ball before crossing the goal line while celebrating. Linebacker Nik Bonitto jumped a trick play to pick off receiver Adonai Mitchell for his second straight game with a pick-six. The Broncos' defense is riding high as a top-five unit, but they'll have a less-than-ideal matchup in Week 16 against a Chargers offense that has taken care of the football all year.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was quiet by his recent standards in the team's 31-13 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Empower Field in Week 15. Sutton led the Broncos in targets yet again with nine, but he only hauled in three catches for team-high 32 yards. However, a 20-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter to put the game away salvaged his line for fantasy managers. Quarterback Bo Nix struggled to get going in this one for the first time in a while and finished with only 130 total passing yards. Sunday's outing was Sutton's first with under 70 receiving yards since his zero-target performance in the Week 7 win over the Saints. Fantasy managers can't really complain. Sutton has seen at least eight targets in seven straight games and should remain a must-start with a high target share in a big divisional clash against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16 on Thursday night.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs made his return from concussion protocol and made a huge statement for the Packers in their 30-13 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Doubs, who hadn't played since Week 12, cleared concussion protocol without an injury designation after three consecutive full practices to score twice and catch three passes for 40 yards on five targets on the evening. Doubs' second touchdown in the fourth quarter was an excellently thrown ball by Jordan Love where Doubs had to reach low to where only he could make a play on it, cementing the Packers' victory to put them up by three scores. With Doubs back in the fold for the Packers, Green Bay will host the New Orleans Saints in Week 16. For fantasy managers, Doubs is a solid flex option in a good matchup.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson helped co-lead the Packers in targets and was a solid contributor in the Packers' 30-13 win against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Watson co-led the Packers in targets with Jayden Reed and was their downfield thread on the boundary, leading the team with 56 yards receiving. Watson's long catch of 36 yards helped the Packers set up a second-quarter field goal. His 56-yard effort comes off the heels of a 114-yard game in Week 14, so it does feel like a disappointment, but Romeo Doubs returning from concussion protocol may have spread the targets out just a bit. With Watson and the Packers heading back home to take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 16, Watson should be considered a volatile flex option for fantasy purposes.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was a utilization monster as he touched the ball 30 times and was an integral part of the team's 30-13 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Setting the tone early in game was Jacobs, as he touched the ball in 9-of-10 plays on the game's opening drive that ended on a Jacobs rushing touchdown from one yard out. Jacobs ended the night with 26 carries for 94 yards and a touchdown, as well as catching 4-of-4 targets for 42 yards through the air. It was a continuation of a massive run for Jacobs as he's scored nine touchdowns in his past five games. With the Packers going back home to Lambeau Field to take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 16, Jacobs is a locked-in RB1 and a must-start option for fantasy managers.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix led his fantasy managers on a roller-coaster ride on Sunday in the 31-13 Week 15 win over the visiting Indianapolis Colts. Nix went 20-for-33 passing for 130 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions. The first-rounder also had eight carries for a team-high 23 rushing yards and was sacked once for a loss of nine yards. After a recent stretch of strong performances that vaulted into low-end QB1 territory, the Oregon product looked more like his shaky, inexperienced self early in the season. Nix now has five touchdowns and four touchdowns in the last two games. Sunday's performance was his first time under 200 yards passing in a game since the Week 7 win over the Saints. The win was a big one for Denver, but the young signal-caller will have to turn the page quickly heading into a tough Week 16 divisional matchup on a short turnaround on Thursday against LA.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. led the team in targets, receptions, and yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Broncos. Unfortunately, with Anthony Richardson under center that hasn't amounted to much this season, as the 27-year-old caught six of his nine targets for 58 yards and no scores. Pittman also lost one of the three fumbles the Colts lost on the day, further diminishing his fantasy output. The 6-foot-4 wideout has become Richardson's preferred option in the passing attack since being renamed starter back in Week 13, but hasn't found the end zone since Week 6 and hasn't topped 100 yards receiving since Week 4. The fifth-year pro gets a more favorable matchup in Week 16 against the Titans, but with the inefficiency of the passing game, Pittman figures to be a low-end WR3 or Flex option next Sunday.

Dynasty | Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle left a loss to the Texans with a knee injury prior to catching a pass. Dynasty Analysis: Waddle came down awkwardly after getting his leg caught under a defender and his injury had the looks of a pretty scary one. The Dolphins are expressing optimism, but more tests are going to need to be run before we know the extent of his injury. What is known, however, is the fact Waddle has had a very down year. His dynasty value has sunk a bit this season, but we'll see just how bad this year is before we decide just where he fits in the pecking order of dynasty rankings this off-season.

Dynasty | Jaguars rookie Brian Thomas Jr had ten catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns in a loss against the Jets. Dynasty Analysis: Thomas has been nothing but consistent all season, despite being on an awful football team with a revolving door at quarterback. He now boasts a 64/956/8 line on the season and will obviously start his career with at least 1,000 yards. While others may have put up some bigger numbers as a rookie, few have been more impressive when you consider his situation. Thomas looks like a solid top-20 option moving forward in dynasty leagues, at worst.

Dynasty | Jets wide receiver Davante Adams had nine catches for 198 yards and two touchdowns in a win against the Jaguars. Dynasty Analysis: The Jets are a dumpster fire, but Adams has been solid since being acquired from the Raiders. His future may hinge on just what Aaron Rodgers does moving forward, but Adams looks like a lineup lock for at least the rest of the season and a solid trade target for contenders in the off-season.

Dynasty | Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle had 149 rushing yards in a win against Carolina. Dynasty Analysis: Since finally getting the chance to be the Cowboys lead back, Dowdle has posted three consecutive career high days with 112, 131, and 149 rushing yards the past three weeks. While Dallas could easily replace him next season, it's clear he's giving them a lot of reasons to think otherwise. Now seemingly destined to hit 1,000 yards on the season, Dowdle is a very interesting hold in dynasty leagues.

Dynasty | Browns running back Nick Chubb broke his foot in a loss to the Chiefs. Dynasty Analysis: Brutal. After returning from a catastrophic leg injury, Chubb's season will end with an unimpressive 332 rushing yards and three touchdowns in eight games played. This latest injury may just seal his fate as the Browns could move on from him in the off-season, despite how much he has meant to the franchise and the community. Chubb has simply not looked the same this year and while he could recover fully from his ailments, he looks like a running back whose career could be on fumes. His dynasty value is going to sink like a rock this off-season.

Dynasty | Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury in a win against Cleveland. Dynasty Analysis: Mahomes was down for some time before limping to the sideline and this injury has the looks of one that could keep him out of action for a while. We'll see what the tests say moving forward, but the ever-durable Mahomes has looked mortal in more ways than one this year. His dynasty value for the off-season may hinge on just how bad this is, so stay tuned.

Dynasty | Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had 11 catches for 108 yards in a loss to Cleveland. Dynasty Analysis: Jeudy has been nothing short of fantastic since Deshaun Watson was replaced with Jameis Winston and passed 1,000 yards receiving with his efforts today. A player who was nothing more than bench fodder for much of the season, Jeudy has been fantastic over the past month as he's finally looking like the first rounder he once was with the Broncos. Few players have seen their dynasty value rise more over the past month than Jeudy.

Dynasty | Titans quarterback Will Levis was benched after completing 8-of-12 passes for 89 yards with three interceptions. Dynasty Analysis: With the Titans now sitting at 3-11, it seems clear the Levis era may be running on fumes. While he's shown some signs of life here and there this season, it's obvious Levis simply isn't a quarterback worth building around. At this point, his dynasty value is in the tank and it's hard to see the Titans having him under center next year.

The Green Bay Packers defense and special teams unit was all over the Seattle Seahawks in their 30-13 win in Week 15. The Packers' defense was a force to be reckoned with as they sacked the quarterback combination of Geno Smith and later, Sam Howell a combined seven times and also forced two interceptions. The seven sacks registered by the defense is the second-best output of this season, so if fantasy managers trust this unit against the Seahawks, they are certainly happy with the results. In Week 16, the Packers will head back home to take on the reeling New Orleans Saints, where the Packers D/ST should be universally started given the state of the Saints' offense.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft had a pedestrian night at the office in the Packers' 30-13 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Kraft did not see a lot of volume, as he only had two passes come his way. He caught both for 34 yards as he was lost in the shuffle with Romeo Doubs (concussion) returning as another pass-catching weapon for quarterback Jordan Love. Kraft's fantasy value has been solid for much of the season so to leave this dud in the fantasy playoffs is a bit disappointing. The Packers head back home to Lambeau Field and will take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 16, where fantasy managers hope he is able to put forth more production. Consider Kraft a low-end fantasy TE1 for that matchup.
