[TB - RB Leonard Fournette ruled out]() Source: Buccaneers.com - Scott Smith Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB [Leonard Fournette](=) (hip) was downgraded from doubtful to out for Week 12 on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Get Rachaad White ready for a big game against the Browns. We see White as an RB2 with upside in Week 12. White will most likely be backed up by Gio Bernard. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [CHI - Bad sign for QB Justin Fields?]() Source: NFL Network - Mike Garafolo Chicago Bears QB [Justin Fields](=) (shoulder) has not been ruled out for Week 12 yet, but the team is elevating QB Nathan Peterman from the practice squad, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] That's what we were thinking when the news about Peterman broke on Saturday. Fields is a game-time decision due to the shoulder injury he suffered last week. If Fields can't play, the Bears will turn to Trevor Siemian as their starter. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [CIN - Ja'Marr Chase not expected to play](=) Source: The Score - Jordan Schultz Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase (hip) is not expected to play in Week 12, per sources on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] We're disappointed because reports had speculated that Week 12 would be Chase's return, but the long-term health of the superstar receiver is much more important. The team wisely will not rush him back into the lineup, although Chase is getting close to a return. In Week 13, the Bengals have a huge matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. That's when we will most likely see Chase return to the field as the Bengals push for another deep postseason run. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [CHI - QB Justin Fields has 'very slim' chance to play](=) Source: Chicago Tribune - Dan Wiederer Chicago Bears QB [Justin Fields](=) (shoulder) has not been cleared to play yet and the chances of that happening before game time on Sunday are 'very slim,' per Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Fields is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Jets. That's why the Bears brought up Nathan Peterman from the practice squad on Saturday. It's a sign we could see Trevor Siemian as the starter with Peterman as his backup. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 5. [TB - Rachaad White ready for bigger role]( Source: Tampa Bay Times - Rick Stroud Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB [Rachaad White](=) is ready for a bigger role, offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich said on Thursday, Nov. 24. 'I think it was excellent to see him go out there and play an extended amount of snaps [in Week 11],' Leftwich said. 'I don't know if he was ready for that many earlier. We saw the gifts that he had early but... we're here with him every day, so we knew we had to get him to the point he could handle that type of load. He's there now. So it was good to see him go out and play and show the skill set that he's got, show the skill set that we like.' [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] We're ready for White to have a larger role as well. White has been patiently waiting for more opportunity, and the rookie certainly has the speed and explosiveness to be a playmaker for the Bucs' offense. He's the starter in Week 12 against the Browns with Leonard Fournette (hip) out of action. White is an RB2 with upside for Fantasy GMs on Sunday. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [TB - RB Giovani Bernard activated]() Source: Buccaneers.com - Scott Smith Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Giovani Bernard (ankle) was activated from injured reserve on Saturday, Nov. 26. In addition, the Bucs waived LB JJ Russell and elevated LB Ulysees Gilbert from the practice squad for Week 12. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Bernard comes back to a backfield without Leonard Fournette in Week 12. Fournette is missing time with a hip injury, and that means rookie RB Rachaad White will be the lead back. Bernard will likely be the primary backup to White on Sunday. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 7. [MIA - RB Jeff Wilson could receive start in Week 12](=) Source: The Miami Herald - Barry Jackson Miami Dolphins RB [Jeff Wilson](=) Jr. would likely start Week 12's game versus the Houston Texans if RB [Raheem Mostert](=) (knee) is unable to play, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Wilson is ready for a breakout game in Week 12. Coming out of the bye, Mostert is on the wrong side of questionable. Mostert was listed as doubtful on the injury report after logging just one limited practice session during the week. Wilson is a top-10 fantasy running back if he gets the full workload in the Dolphins' backfield.

[PIT - Jaylen Warren ruled out]() Source: KDKA-TV - Bob Pompeani Pittsburgh Steelers RB [Jaylen Warren](=) (hamstring) did not practice all week and was ruled out for Week 12 on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] This means Najee Harris is going to get a majority of the work in the Steelers' backfield. They play against the Colts on Monday night, and Fantasy GMs need to consider Harris an RB2 in Week 12. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 9. [DEN - Denver makes three moves](=) Source: DenverBroncos.com - Aric DiLalla Denver Broncos RB [Devine Ozigbo](=) was promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster on Saturday, Nov. 26. Also, WR Brandon Johnson and CB Faion Hicks were elevated from the practice squad for Week 12. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Ozigbo is called up because the Broncos are down to Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack in the backfield. We'll see Murray and Mack work in an RBBC on Sunday against the Panthers. Ozigbo will only get work when those two need a breather or if someone gets banged up. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 10. [SEA - WR Dee Eskridge lands on IR]() Source: Seahawks.com - John Boyle Seattle Seahawks WR [Dee Eskridge](=) (hand) was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, Nov. 26. In addition, OT Abraham Lucas (illness) was added to the injury report and is now questionable for Week 12, and WR Laquon Treadwell and LB Vi Jones were elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Eskridge will now be out of action for a four-week minimum. He's a young receiver with a ton of speed, but injuries have kept him from playing up to his potential. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 11. [BAL - Isaiah Likely downgraded to out]() Source: BaltimoreRavens.com Baltimore Ravens TE [Isaiah Likely](=) (ankle) was downgraded from questionable to out for Week 12 on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] It's disappointing we won't see the talented rookie tight end out there for the Ravens this week. He's flashed here and there for the Ravens this year, but it's a Mark Andrews show in Week 12 against the Jaguars. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 12. [BUF - OLB Von Miller has torn meniscus](=) Source: NFL.com - Nick Shook Updating previous reports, Buffalo Bills LB Von Miller (knee) reportedly has a torn lateral meniscus, according to the results of an MRI exam taken Friday, Nov. 25. He will be re-evaluated in seven to 10 days and will undergo surgery at some point, although it is uncertain if it will take place now or during the offseason. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] It's bad news, but this is better news than some had feared. Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Miller will not play in Week 13's game versus the New England Patriots but if he does return to action soon, he could wear a brace to protect the knee. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 13. [DEN - RB Devine Ozigbo getting promotion](=) Source: 9News.com - Mike Klis Denver Broncos RB [Devine Ozigbo](=) is expected to be promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, per source on Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Ozigbo is called up because the Broncos are down to Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack in the backfield. We'll see Murray and Mack work in an RBBC on Sunday against the Panthers. Ozigbo will only get work when those two need a breather or if someone gets banged up. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 14. [TEN - PK Randy Bullock downgraded to out]( Source: TennesseeTitans.com Tennessee Titans PK Randy Bullock (calf) was downgraded from questionable to out Saturday, Nov. 26. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] PK Caleb Shudak (undisclosed) was activated from the Reserve/PUP list and should handle the kicking for Tennessee.
