Alvin Kamara

NegativeInjury5:00

Alvin Kamara is questionable with a back injury and was limited on Friday. Ian Hartitz notes that questionable + limited status suggests a true tossup for availability. Against the Vikings, Hartitz would not go out of his way to play Kamara if alternatives are available.

Insight page

Ashton Jeanty

NegativeInjury1:02

Ashton Jeanty is questionable with a foot issue that emerged Thursday, downgraded from full practice Wednesday to limited Thursday to did-not-practice Friday. Clint Kubiak says he'll "do his best to play" but offers no clarity on availability. The 1 PM kickoff limits flexibility if Jeanty is unavailable, making backup contingency planning critical.

Insight page

Breece Hall

NegativeInjury8:00

Out with quadriceps injury; did not practice all week. His absence sets up Brillon Allen for significant volume against the Browns.

Insight page

Cam Ward

NegativeProjection20:09

Ian Hartitz and Billy express skepticism about Cam Ward's development as a functional quarterback in his young career; Sharp Books and Pinnacle view the under 19.5 completions as a heavy favorite, suggesting low confidence in his passing volume. Hartitz targets Cam Ward under 19.5 completions as a prop bet.

Insight page

Chris Brooks

NegativeInjury8:40

Out with ankle injury for the Packers, condensing the running back rotation to Marshon Lloyd and Caleb Johnson. Despite Brooks' absence, Ian Hartitz is not going out of his way to play either remaining Packers running back, noting the Bears have been a strong defense since Week 1, though they remain one of the worst defenses in terms of rushing yards before contact per carry.

Insight page

Chris Olave

PositiveInjury9:03

Had a late-game foot issue but has no official injury designation and is good to go for Sunday.

Insight page

Courtland Sutton

NegativeRole14:14

Ian Hartitz ranks Courtland Sutton below Antonio Williams in the wide receiver hierarchy if Terry McLaurin is rolled out alongside Stefon Diggs; Sutton is ranked behind Williams, Jakobi Meyers, and Roma Dunes in this scenario.

Insight page

D.J. Moore

NegativeInjury12:08

Shoulder injury; not practicing to start the week but expected to play Monday Night Football. Offensive coordinator Joe Brady said Moore is a competitor who will do everything he can to be available, though final status remains uncertain.

Insight page

D'Andre Swift

PositiveInjury0:16

DeAndre Swift is good to go after full practice on Friday despite hip and knee injuries. Ian Hartitz moved him into his top 10 running backs for the week. His receiving upside is a key play, with over 2.5 receptions available at plus 100 to plus 110 odds; with Kyle Manungai out, Swift will see increased snap percentage though not necessarily all the receiving work.

Insight page

Dameon Pierce

NegativeRole7:38

Remains on the Eagles' depth chart behind Will Shipley despite being available. Coach Sirani has not activated Pierce all season despite calling him a 'really nice running back,' limiting his fantasy relevance. With Saquon Barkley out with a hamstring injury and Tech Bigsby on IR with a core muscle issue, Shipley becomes the primary Eagles running back, leaving Pierce as a backup option.

Insight page

Daniel Jones

NegativeMatchup22:05

Ian Hartitz targets Daniel Jones under 10.5 rushing yards against the Steelers; Jones has gone under this mark in all four games this year and only cleared it in 5 of 17 games with the Colts. The Steelers allow the 12th fewest rushing yards to QBs this year despite facing Drake May and Deshaun Watson, partly because they play zone coverage at the third-highest rate in the league, keeping defenders' eyes on the line of scrimmage. In last year's matchup, Jones had only four rushing yards and took five sacks. He has set new career lows in rushing yards and attempts per game this season following his Achilles injury.

Insight page

David Montgomery

NegativeProjection0:29

David Montgomery has had a tough season. Ian Hartitz and Billy Collins note that both the Titans and Texans offenses are weak, and Collins loves the under at 37.5 in the Titans-Texans game, particularly avoiding Montgomery.

Insight page

DeVonta Smith

NegativeInjury13:48

Out with a hamstring injury. Ian Hartitz is not going out of his way to play any Eagles this week if he can help it due to multiple injuries on the roster.

Insight page

Emanuel Wilson

PositiveRole6:39

If George Helani is unavailable with his rib injury, Emanuel Wilson becomes the featured back for Seattle and would rank in the top-16. Ian Hartitz would feel comfortable playing Wilson ahead of many flex-worthy wide receivers if Helani is sidelined.

Insight page

George Holani

NegativeInjury6:39

George Helani is questionable with a rib injury for Seattle. If he is unavailable, Emanuel Wilson becomes the featured back in one of the best matchups of the week (49ers-Seahawks).

Insight page

Ja'Marr Chase

PositiveInjury10:44

Got a full practice on Friday and is progressing through concussion protocol. Officially questionable with a concussion, but Ian Hartitz expects to find out on Saturday if he is in fact good to go.

Insight page

Jakobi Meyers

NegativeRole14:14

Ian Hartitz ranks Jakobi Meyers below Antonio Williams in the wide receiver hierarchy if Terry McLaurin is rolled out alongside Stefon Diggs; Meyers is ranked behind Williams but ahead of Roma Dunes and Courtland Sutton in this scenario.

Insight page

Jayden Daniels

PositiveInjury0:21

Jaden Daniels is back for the Washington Commanders after an elbow injury; he is expected to wear a brace on his left elbow but will play. Ian Hartitz rates him as a top 15 quarterback for the week.

Insight page

Jaylen Warren

PositiveRole6:16

Jaylen Warren's role depends on Rico Dubose's status. Without Rico (who is questionable after being limited all week), Warren moves from a top-10 play to a top-16 play. Ian Hartitz is starting Warren either way, indicating confidence in his floor.

Insight page

Jaylen Wright

NegativeInjury6:45

Jaylen Wright was a late midweek addition to the Dolphins injury report and is now questionable with a foot injury. The Dolphins claimed Keon Allen off waivers from the Commanders, suggesting the Wright injury may have prompted the move. His potential absence would improve Olly Gordon's fantasy outlook.

Insight page

Jeremiyah Love

PositiveProjection0:28

Jeremiah Love practiced in full on Friday and is not listed on the injury report. Ian Hartitz rates him as RB18 ahead of Will Shipley and Olly Gordon, noting a great game environment and desire to see more from the running game despite the Cardinals losing left tackle Paris Johnson for the season.

Insight page

Jordan Addison

NegativeInjury10:14

Officially questionable with hamstring injury, coming off a dud last week. Ian Hartitz is not loving Addison's outlook; the issue is not Addison himself but rather the Vikings' quarterback situation with Kyler Murray's struggles, which are not getting rectified anytime soon.

Insight page

Malik Nabers

PositiveInjury9:13

Battling a knee injury but has no official injury designation and is good to go for Sunday.

Insight page

Malik Washington

PositiveRole14:14

Malik Washington is a volume-based wide receiver three floor play without Caleb Williams in the picture; expected to step up in the offense with the Bears' top receiver out.

Insight page

Mason Taylor

NegativeRole16:16

Mason Taylor is not listed on the injury report and is good to go for the Jets; however, his return is a ding for Kenyan Sadi, as Sadi had his big games with Taylor out of the picture. Ian Hartitz cites historical precedent with Colston Loveland's rookie season alongside Cole Kmet, Don Concepcion, and Dawson Knox, noting that unsexy inline tight ends can limit tweener-type pass-catchers' usage at the NFL level.

Insight page

Mike Evans

PositiveInjury10:00

No injury designation and is good to go for Sunday.

Insight page

Mike Washington Jr.

PositiveRole4:29

If Ashton Jeanty is unavailable, Mike Washington becomes an arguable top-12 running back for Ian Hartitz, possibly closer to RB15. Washington is the clear backup with Dylan Lob serving primarily as a special teamer; Washington also took routes away from Lob in preseason. Hartitz is tempted to rank Washington as RB11 and would play him ahead of Cam Akers and Aaron Jones.

Insight page

Quentin Johnston

NegativeInjury12:20

Out with a chest injury; part of a banged-up Broncos offense alongside Lad McConi (questionable, foot) and Brennan Thompson (banged up).

Insight page

Rhamondre Stevenson

NegativeInjury5:19

Rhamondre Stevenson is questionable with a knee injury; he was limited all week. Stevenson says he's ready to go, but Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said "not out, not yet," creating conflicting signals about his status. The 1 PM kickoff should provide clarity before most lineups lock.

Insight page

Saquon Barkley

NegativeInjury7:24

Officially out with a hamstring injury for Week 15. His absence leaves Will Shipley, Damen Pierce, and recently elevated Carson Steel as the remaining running back options in Philadelphia.

Insight page

Stefon Diggs

NegativeInjury14:16

Stefon Diggs is officially out with a hamstring injury and unavailable for the Washington Commanders this week.

Insight page

Tee Higgins

PositiveInjury10:56

Dealing with adductor and neck injury but practiced in full on Friday; officially questionable. Ian Hartitz notes you're starting Tee Higgins if available, though his absence would make it tougher to get behind secondary Bengals receivers like Dante Myers and Mike Jiki.

Insight page

Tre Tucker

NegativeUsage12:48

Ian Hartitz targets Trey Tucker over 3.5 receptions, citing a perfect storm of wide receiver injuries on the Raiders and Patriots quarterback injuries. Tucker has cleared 3.5 catches in three straight weeks (5, 4, and 4 receptions) with a season-high eight targets last week. While he had a couple drops last week, Hartitz does not view this as a career-long concern. Hartitz also likes Tucker as an upside wide receiver three this week against a banged-up Patriots secondary with three or four cornerbacks out, calling this one of his favorite long-shot plays of the week.

Insight page

Tyler Higbee

PositiveRole16:44

Tyler Higbee was a tight end stream target alongside Mike Jasinski, but Kobe Parkinson's likely return makes Higbee less appealing; Ian Hartitz cautions to be careful in tight end streams as Parkinson's return diminishes Higbee's upside.

Insight page

Will Shipley

NegativeProjection7:31

With Saquon Barkley out and Tech Bigsby on IR, Shipley becomes the primary Eagles running back but Ian Hartitz projects him in the RB23-RB24 range due to matchup concerns. Hartitz prefers flex-worthy wide receivers like Romeo Dobbs and Jameson Williams over Shipley this week. However, Shipley has volume security with limited running back depth in Philadelphia. Betting over 10.5 rushing attempts at plus odds is favored.

Insight page

Zay Flowers

PositiveInjury11:30

Officially questionable with foot injury, but Ravens reporter Jameson Hensley expects him to play. Ian Hartitz notes it's a foot injury, not a hamstring, and would not be surprised if Flowers gets cleared by Saturday night.
