49ers star DE Nick Bosa aggravates hip, injures other hip

Sun Nov 17 8:37pm ET
Field Level Media

San Francisco 49ers All-Pro defensive end Nick Bosa aggravated a hip injury and hurt his other hip in the process during Sunday's 20-17 home loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Bosa, 27, had dealt with a hip issue leading up to the game and was listed as questionable, but suited up and finished with 1 1/2 sacks, four tackles and two tackles for loss.

After a sack of Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith in the third quarter, Bosa limped off the field and was unable to return.

"I guess I was compensating, pushed through last week," he told reporters. "And the same thing happened to my other oblique. So, see what I'm feeling like (Monday)."

Asked about how concerned he is about possibly missing time as the Niners chase a playoff spot, Bosa said, "It's definitely there. I don't know, I gotta see."

On the same drive Bosa left with the injury, the Seahawks scored their first touchdown to take a 13-10 lead. With Bosa unable to return, the 49ers couldn't prevent Smith from scoring the winning touchdown on a 13-yard run with 12 seconds remaining in the game.

"Brutal," Bosa said of having to watch the Seahawks' rally while standing on the sideline. "The most important time in the game for me to be out there, and I wasn't able to be. I hate missing time, that's why I pushed through last week. Hopefully it's not too long."

A four-time Pro Bowl selection after the Niners selected him No. 2 overall in the 2019 draft, Bosa has 60.5 sacks and 245 tackles and 82 tackles for loss in 78 games (76 starts). He was named an All-Pro and the NFL's Defensive Player of the Year in 2022 after registering a career-high 18.5 sacks.

In 10 starts this season, Bosa has seven sacks, 36 tackles, 10 tackles for loss and one interception.

Bender's Starts/Sits: Week 11

Player Notes
JuJu Smith-Schuster Nov 17 7:40pm CT
JuJu Smith-Schuster

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster caught one pass for eight yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Smith-Schuster returned to the team after missing the last three games. Despite being available, the veteran receiver was not a factor in the passing attack. Smith-Schuster only saw one target in the team's first loss of the season. Before the team's Week 6 bye, Smith-Schuster appeared to be the top receiver on the Chiefs, but it has been a long time since then. The Chiefs acquired DeAndre Hopkins in the absence of Smith-Schuster, and rookie Xavier Worthy has been more involved lately. Smith-Schuster will look to be a factor in next week's game against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. It will be difficult for fantasy managers to trust Smith-Schuster in starting lineups, considering the other talented pass catchers on the team.

Geno Smith Nov 17 7:40pm CT
Geno Smith

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had a modest day as a passer against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11. However, Smith had a great afternoon rushing the ball and ran for what would prove to be the game-winning touchdown for the Seahawks. This was a classic November divisional matchup in the NFL. Both defenses showed up and held the opposing offenses to 20 points or less. Smith only threw for 221 yards and an interception, but he was surgical on the Seahawks' final drive of the day. Smith did not have the biggest day from a fantasy perspective, but he was able to deliver QB2 numbers as expected. Smith has now led several game-winning drives for the Seahawks this season. Those drives have seen Smith rack up fantasy points in what would have been otherwise modest days. Even so, Smith continues to be a high-floor quarterback in fantasy whether the Seahawks win or lose. He will look to carry the momentum from this win into an important Week 12 matchup with the Arizona Cardinals.

Jahmyr Gibbs Nov 17 7:30pm CT
Jahmyr Gibbs

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs excelled in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, rushing 11 times for 69 yards and a touchdown while adding a 54-yard reception on his lone target in a 52-6 blowout victory. Gibbs has now surpassed 100 total yards in four of his last five games, further solidifying his role in Detroit's explosive offense. His consistent production, with 16 or more PPR fantasy points in seven of 10 games and no single-digit performances all season, makes him a reliable RB1 option. Gibbs posted a Top-7 RB performance this week going into Sunday night, and will look to continue his stellar season in a favorable Week 12 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Noah Gray Nov 17 7:30pm CT
Noah Gray

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray caught four passes for 23 yards and two touchdowns in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs collected their first loss of the season, but it was to no fault of Gray. The Chiefs backup tight end was one of the team's most productive players in the passing game. Gray's two touchdowns in this game were his first and second scores of the year. Gray will look to find the endzone again in next week's contest against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season. Despite his big game, Gray is not involved enough to be considered a usable fantasy asset in any matchup. Fantasy managers should leave Gray on the waiver wire.

David Montgomery Nov 17 7:30pm CT
David Montgomery

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery delivered a dominant performance in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, rushing 15 times for 75 yards and two touchdowns while adding 20 yards on three receptions in a 52-6 victory. Montgomery posted his season-best fantasy outing, ranking as the RB3 going into Sunday night. This marks his third multi-touchdown game of the season and his eighth game with a touchdown in 10 appearances. Montgomery continues to maximize his opportunities in Detroit's high-powered offense, thriving alongside Jahmyr Gibbs in a dynamic backfield. He remains a strong RB option with TD upside heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Jared Goff

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff lit up the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11, completing 24-of-29 passes (82.8%) for 412 yards and four touchdowns in a dominant 52-6 victory. Goff also added 21 rushing yards on four attempts, rebounding from his five-interception performance in Week 10 with a perfect passer rating against a struggling Jaguars defense. This was by far Goff's best fantasy outing of the season, making him the overall QB1 for the week heading into Sunday night and the No. 3 fantasy scorer overall. Goff will aim to continue his MVP-caliber campaign in Week 12 as the Lions travel to face the Indianapolis Colts, who narrowly defeated the Jets in Week 11.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Nov 17 7:20pm CT
Amon-Ra St. Brown

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11, catching all 11 of his targets for 161 yards and two touchdowns in a 52-6 rout. St. Brown extended his touchdown streak to eight consecutive games, cementing his status as a top-tier fantasy option. Heading into Sunday night, he ranks as the WR1 for the week and No. 2 fantasy scorer overall. This was his fifth game this season with 20 or more PPR fantasy points, showcasing his elite consistency in Detroit's high-powered offense. St. Brown remains a must-start WR1 heading into Week 12 as the Lions face the Indianapolis Colts.

DeAndre Hopkins Nov 17 7:20pm CT
DeAndre Hopkins

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught three passes for 29 yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs were handled their first loss of the season in this contest, and their veteran receiver was held in check. The Buffalo defense was considered a formidable unit to throw on coming into this game, which proved true. Hopkins finished the game with four targets, tied with Travis Kelce and Samaje Perine for the second-most targets on the team. The Chiefs spread the ball around in this contest, and the veteran receiver had diminished production because of that approach. Hopkins will look to turn it around next week against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Fantasy managers should feel more confident starting Hopkins next week in a more favorable matchup.

Kareem Hunt Nov 17 7:10pm CT
Kareem Hunt

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had 14 carries for 60 yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Hunt was held out of the endzone in this contest in the team's first loss this season, leading to a mediocre fantasy performance. Despite being heavily involved in the passing game last week, Hunt did not see a single target in this contest. The Bills defense was viewed as a favorable matchup for running backs going into this game, but Buffalo held Hunt to 4.3 yards per carry. The veteran running back may have seen his last game as the undisputed lead back for the Chiefs as Isiah Pacheco is expected to return to the team in Week 12. It will be interesting to see what the backfield split will look like with Pacheco involved against the Carolina Panthers next week. The Panthers rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season, so Hunt should be productive with the touches he gets. Fantasy managers should monitor Pacheco's involvement to determine what Hunt's value will be moving forward.

Xavier Worthy Nov 17 7:10pm CT
Xavier Worthy

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy caught four passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Worthy looked like he was in for a big game with one carry, four catches, and a touchdown early on, but he was held without another touch for the remainder of the contest. The Chiefs were handed their first loss of the season, but it was encouraging to see Worthy be an essential piece of the offense. Worthy will look to carry this momentum into next week's contest against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Despite this strong showing, it won't be easy to trust Worthy in starting lineups until he displays some consistency from week to week.

Cooper Kupp Nov 17 7:00pm CT
Cooper Kupp

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp finished Sunday's win over the Patriots by amassing six receptions (10 targets) for 106 yards. He also found the end zone twice, bringing his total to four during the 2024-25 campaign. Without question, the wideout has been on a roll, catching 24 passes from Matthew Stafford in the last three games. Of course, Kupp still remains a starting fantasy option in the Week 12, Sunday Night Football matchup with Philadelphia. He just may have a tougher time being as productive against a challenging Eagles defense.

Colby Parkinson Nov 17 7:00pm CT
Colby Parkinson

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson had only one catch for 19 yards in Sunday's win over the Patriots. Fortunately, it at least resulted in a trip to the end zone, with the 25-year-old bringing in one of Matthew Stafford's four touchdown throws near the end of the third quarter. With that in mind, Parkinson wasn't targeted in the Rams' previous two contests, so fantasy managers shouldn't look in his direction as a streaming option for the Week 12 clash with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Patrick Mahomes Nov 17 6:50pm CT
Patrick Mahomes

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 23 of 33 pass attempts (70%) for 196 yards and three touchdowns in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Mahomes passed for under 200 yards in this contest but made up for it with three passing scores for the second time this season. Mahomes also threw multiple interceptions for the third time this season, including a game-ending pick in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. The Chiefs quarterback also finished the game with zero rushing yards for the first time this season. Mahomes has continued to be a disappointing fantasy asset, especially in the team's last two games with tough matchups. The veteran quarterback will look to bounce back from the team's first loss next week against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 27th in fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks this season. Mahomes will likely be ranked as a low-end QB1 next week, with one of the most favorable matchups for quarterbacks.

Puka Nacua Nov 17 6:50pm CT
Puka Nacua

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua looked great in Sunday's victory over the New England Patriots. The wideout finished Week 11 by leading his team on the receiving end, pulling in seven of his nine targets for 123 yards. He also finally found the end zone, catching a 12-yard toss from Matthew Stafford in the second quarter. With Nacua coming off his second 100-yard outing this season, he'll look to keep it going against a tough Eagles defense in a Sunday Night Football meeting between the clubs.

Travis Kelce Nov 17 6:50pm CT
Travis Kelce

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught two passes for eight yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs were handed their first loss of the season, and Kelce was the target on the game-ending interception. The veteran tight end finished the game with just four targets against the stingy Buffalo defense. Despite being the focal point of the Kansas City passing attack every week, Kelce was held in check in this contest. The 35-year-old will look to bounce back in a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers next week. The Panthers rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season, so Kelce should have his way against them. Despite this underwhelming performance, Kelce should still be considered a top-tier tight-end option for the rest of the season.

Kyren Williams Nov 17 6:40pm CT
Kyren Williams

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams had 86 yards off 15 carries in Sunday's win over the Patriots. It wasn't a horrible showing from the 24-year-old. However, after Williams found the end zone in seven consecutive games this season, he hasn't scored in any of the Rams' previous three contests. While the team leaned on him more while Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp were on the shelf, fantasy managers are hoping he'll get back on track versus the Eagles in Week 12, a team that has played well against the run all year.

Anthony Richardson Nov 17 6:40pm CT
Anthony Richardson

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson put himself back on the fantasy map on Sunday, totaling three TDs, one via pass and two via rush, in a tight 28-27 win over the Jets. Coming into the game with a 44.4% completion rate, the 22-year-old completed 20 of 30 pass attempts (66.7%) for 272 yards and a touchdown. While it was an improvement for sure, especially given that he did not throw an interception, it wasn't pretty at times and the former first-round draft pick fumbled twice, losing one of them. The 6-foot-4 signal-caller added 10 rushes for 32 yards and two scores, finishing the day well within the top 10 at the position in fantasy scoring. The Colts and Richardson will have a tough matchup at home next week against the Lions, but it may be fruitful for fantasy if they are playing from behind all day.

Hayden Hurst

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DJ Charkand tight end Hayden Hurst won't play in Sunday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Both players are healthy. However, with receivers Joshua Palmer, Quentin Johnston, Ladd McConkey, and tight end Will Dissly all active, the move was made to give Hurst and Chark the night off. But considering Hurst has only seven catches and Chark doesn't have any this season, their absences won't have much of an impact on fantasy managers.

Dynasty | Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson completed 20-of-30 passes for 272 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions, adding 32 rushing yards and two more scores in a win against the Jets. Dynasty Analysis: This may have been the best game he's played in his young career. After being benched for Joe Flacco, Richardson looked energized today and also in control, something we hadn't seen much of this season. The Jets area. mess, but this was a huge step in the right direction and should put his dynasty value drop to a sudden halt.

Dynasty | Jets running back Breece Hall had 78 rushing yards, seven catches, 43 receiving yards and two touchdowns in a loss against the Colts. Dynasty Analysis: The Jets looked competitive in this one and much of the credit should go to Hall, who finally looked like a RB1 in fantasy leagues today. While this is just one game, Hall could be poised for a better second half of the year as the Jets look to get him involved since their Plan A has clearly not worked this season. His dynasty buy low window may have closed this afternoon.
