Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) will be listed as questionable to play this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14, according to head coach Sean McDermott. The head coach said he needs to see Kincaid be "functional" to play. Kincaid has not played since injuring his hamstring in Week 10. The 26-year-old was close to suiting up for last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, but a knee injury was added this week, and he was seen wearing a brace on his left leg during Thursday's practice. He could be a game-time decision on Sunday. If Kincaid can return in Week 14, he'll immediately be back in the TE1 picture in fantasy football. Before his hamstring injury, the former first-rounder had 29 catches for 448 yards and four touchdowns in eight games. Kincaid ranks as the TE8 with 10.4 half-PPR fantasy points per game in 2025.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie first-round running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) said again on Thursday that he feels great and is eager to get back on the field, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN. "If it's up to me. I'll always play, but I got to wait for the doc. Whatever they say goes," Hampton said. The 22-year-old North Carolina alum resumed practicing last week for the first time since fracturing his ankle in Week 5. Hampton was limited in the first practice this week on Thursday, but he's trending toward coming off Injured Reserve and playing on Monday night versus the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. Fantasy managers who have been stashing the explosive rookie back all this time have to be excited for his impending return, but against a tough Eagles defense and in a potential timeshare with Kimani Vidal in his first game back, Hampton profiles as more of an RB3/flex if he's active in Week 14.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (chest) has been ruled out for the Week 14 game on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. The Cardinals will also be without receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) for the third time in the last four games, and running back Trey Benson (knee) won't return from Injured Reserve. With both Harrison and Dortch out this weekend, Michael Wilson and tight end Trey McBride should see heavy target shares in a game where the Cardinals will likely be forced to pass often. Receivers Xavier Weaver and Andre Baccellia will also have expanded roles behind Wilson. Dortch had 12 catches for 119 yards and two touchdowns with Harrison out in Weeks 11 and 12, but he caught only two passes for 14 yards with Harrison back last week. His Week 15 fantasy value will depend on his health and whether Harrison can play as well.

Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson sounded unsure of wide receiver Rome Odunze's (foot) status for Week 14 this Sunday against the division-rival Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, according to Chris Emma of 670 The Score. Odunze did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, putting his availability for this weekend's big divisional game in question. The 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher's status against Green Bay will depend largely on whether he's able to get back on the practice field on Friday. Check back a bit later for Odunze's final status. If he is officially ruled out, it will mean much bigger roles for DJ Moore and rookie Luther Burden III, as well as for tight ends Colston Loveland and Cole Kmet in a tough matchup on the road against a lockdown defense. Odunze's recent slump could very well be in direct relation to his foot injury.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is a full-go for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills in Week 14, according to Ben Baby of ESPN. Higgins suffered a concussion late in the Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots and was forced to sit out of the Thanksgiving night win over the Baltimore Ravens last Thursday. The 26-year-old will return this weekend in a crucial game on the road in Buffalo and will have quarterback Joe Burrow throwing him passes for the first time since Week 2. Ja'Marr Chase's presence and high target share are always worrisome for Higgins' fantasy managers, but Higgins still has a pretty high fantasy ceiling, especially now that Burrow is back running the offense. Even with Burrow out for most of the year, Higgins has been a top-30 fantasy wideout in half-PPR scoring.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters on Friday that wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) will not play on Sunday against the division-rival New Orleans Saints in Week 14, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Evans returned to practice this week for the first time since breaking his collarbone in Week 7, but he's just not ready yet. The 32-year-old future Hall of Famer could be ready to go next Thursday night against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons, though, depending on how much progress he can make early next week in practice. The Bucs could ease Evans back into the fold when he's ready, but he absolutely needs to be stashed in all fantasy leagues for his ability to help carry teams in the fantasy playoffs, which start in most leagues next week. With Evans and Jalen McMillan (neck) out another week, Tampa will move forward with Chris Godwin Jr. and Emeka Egbuka as their top wideouts, with Sterling Shepard and Tez Johnson battling for WR3 duties.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles told reporters on Friday that wide receiver Jalen McMillan (neck), who returned to practice this week, will not come off Injured Reserve to make his 2025 debut in Week 14 versus the division-rival New Orleans Saints on Sunday, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. McMillan resumed practicing this week for the first time since suffering three fractures in his neck as well as ligament damage during a preseason game in August. The Bucs are bringing McMillan along slowly, so he might not be ready for game action for another couple of weeks. Fellow wideout Mike Evans (collarbone) is much closer, with his return potentially coming next Thursday night against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons. When/if McMillan returns this year, he will most likely struggle to find consistent targets in the team's crowded WR picture.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) will start on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14, according to head coach Dan Quinn. Daniels will be active this weekend for the first time since a gruesome dislocation of his left (non-throwing) elbow in Week 9 in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old has missed the team's last three games but will take over starting duties in Minnesota, sending veteran Marcus Mariota back to the bench. Washington got top wideout Terry McLaurin back from a nagging quad injury last week, so Daniels will have a pretty healthy offense around him for his return. Daniels wasn't playing quite like he did in his amazing rookie season this year before hamstring and elbow injuries sidelined him, but he definitely makes the Commanders' offense more dynamic. Fantasy managers may want to temper expectations in Daniels' first game back, though, especially since the Vikings have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to QBs in 2025.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said on Friday that quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) will not return this year after recent tests on his injured foot showed that he is not progressing, according to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. When asked whether Murray will be the team's starting QB in 2026, Gannon said, "I'm focused on the Rams." The Cardinals are out of the playoff picture, and veteran QB Jacoby Brissett has played much better than Murray did before he sprained his foot back in Week 5. It's uncertain if Murray will need surgery on his injured foot, but either way, it's clear that the 28-year-old signal-caller's future in the desert is very tenuous. The former first overall pick back in 2019 out of Oklahoma is one of the most talented rushing QBs when healthy, but he hasn't progressed enough as a passer and will finish 2025 with 962 passing yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions in five games played. Murray added 173 rushing yards and a TD on 29 carries.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) returned to practice on Friday and is on track to play on Sunday against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Jackson was limited for the second straight week on Wednesday due to an ankle issue, and it raised eyebrows when he was held out of Thursday's practice entirely. Offensive coordinator Todd Monken said on Thursday that he expected Jackson to play this weekend, and it looks like he will. But with the 28-year-old already missing games earlier this year due to a hamstring strain and being listed on the injury report with other lower-body ailments in recent weeks, it's fair to wonder just how healthy Jackson actually is. Fantasy managers shouldn't be benching him, but his lower-body injuries could be responsible for the fact that he's the QB15 in average fantasy points through 13 weeks.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott notes that edge rusher Joey Bosa (hamstring, wrist) and linebacker Terrel Bernard (elbow) will not be active for Sunday's home clash with the Cincinnati Bengals. Bernard missed the team's Week 13 win over Pittsburgh with an elbow injury and had yet to participate in practice since sustaining it in the game prior. On the other hand, Bosa had been listed on the injury report with a wrist issue for a while, but he had not missed time because of it. The hamstring designation is new, however, and it's held him out of practice twice now as they gear up for a pivotal matchup with Cincinnati. Javon Solomon figures to see a decent amount of work in place of Bosa this weekend, while Shaq Thompson and Matt Milano should fill in for the injured Bernard.

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) will not come off Injured Reserve to play this Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 14, AZCardinals.com's Darren Urban reports. Head coach Jonathan Gannon acknowledged that he doesn't know if Benson will return this season. The writing was on the wall for Benson to miss yet another game after he missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but it's pretty surprising that he could miss the rest of the season after it looked like he was on the cusp of a return. It's very possible that the 23-year-old second-year RB suffered a setback with his surgically repaired knee while ramping up for a return. Emari Demercado could make his return from an ankle injury in Week 14, but fantasy managers in need of RB help might want to scoop up Bam Knight right away. Knight is rostered in 33% of Yahoo leagues and should continue to see most of the backfield opportunities in Arizona if Benson remains out.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said that wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) will not play on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 14, according to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. Harrison missed Weeks 11 and 12 following an appendectomy, but he returned in last week's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to catch six of his seven targets for 69 yards before injuring his heel. The 23-year-old former fourth overall pick in 2024 out of Ohio State will miss another game this weekend, continuing his frustrating season for his fantasy managers. Greg Dortch (chest) hasn't practiced this week, either, and could also be held out, which would make Michael Wilson a must-start in all fantasy formats despite the tough matchup against L.A. In Weeks 11 and 12 with Harrison out, Wilson had an eye-opening 25 catches (33 targets) for 303 yards. Harrison's next chance to return will be in Week 15 against the Houston Texans on Sunday, Dec. 14.

According to head coach Sean McDermott, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee, ankle) has been deemed doubtful for Sunday's outing with the visiting Cincinnati Bengals. Palmer missed the team's Week 13 win over the Steelers with an ankle injury. Although he did not play, the 26-year-old picked up a knee issue, which has led to him being listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. It would appear that Palmer is trending toward being inactive, meaning teammates Gabe Davis and Brandin Cooks will continue to see opportunities behind Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Tyrell Shavers in the passing game.

New York Jets backup quarterback Justin Fields (knee), who reported soreness in his knee on Wednesday, has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the division-rival Miami Dolphins, according to head coach Aaron Glenn. Rookie Brady Cook will serve as the backup to veteran Tyrod Taylor. Fields began the year as the Jets' starting QB, but he has been benched for the last two games in favor of Taylor, who has given the passing attack a small boost. The 26-year-old Fields' disappointing 2025 season will hit a new low point now that he's out with an injury. Even when Fields returns from his knee injury, it seems likely that the Jets will close out the year with Taylor starting under center. In his nine starts in his first year in New York, Fields completed 62.7% of his 204 pass attempts for just 1,259 yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception while adding 71 rushing attempts for 383 yards and four more TDs.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) has entered concussion protocol, ESPN's Todd Archer reports. Lamb was on a tear before exiting Thursday's 44-30 loss to the hosting Detroit Lions, posting his second consecutive 100-yard outing despite playing less than half of the team's snaps (46%). Unfortunately, he'll now be faced with clearing the league's protocol as he attempts to avoid missing his fourth contest of the campaign. A silver lining for the 26-year-old is that Dallas' next matchup is still over a week away, giving the superstar wideout a few extra days to get right before they host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night. If he's unable to play, fantasy managers can expect teammates Ryan Flournoy and KaVontae Turpin to work behind George Pickens in three-wide-receiver sets.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Detroit Lions defensive back Brian Branch (Achilles) suffered a torn Achilles tendon in Thursday's 44-30 home win against the Dallas Cowboys. It's an enormous blow to the defense, as the third-year pro had led all Lions' safeties in snaps by a wide margin, and ranks third on the team with 75 tackles (48 solo). Teammate Daniel Thomas entered the game in Branch's stead, as Detroit also lost Thomas Harper (concussion) in the outing, and the former figures to continue working in his absence for the remainder of the campaign until Kerby Joseph (knee) returns from an injury of his own. Thomas has played a total of 17 defensive snaps in two appearances this season.

Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa recorded two catches for 20 yards and a touchdown on three targets in his team's 44-30 Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. While the 23-year-old has just eight receptions on the season, four of them have come in the end zone, including two in the last two weeks. TeSlaa has seen extended playing time thanks to the absence of Lions wideout Kalif Raymond (ankle), who has missed two straight games with an ankle injury. Raymond's return timeline is uncertain, but his return would almost certainly cut into TeSlaa's chances in the future. Still, Detroit may continue to utilize TeSlaa as a big-body threat in the red zone with tight ends Sam LaPorta (back) and Brock Wright (neck) on Injured Reserve. Fantasy managers interested in TeSlaa should monitor Raymond's injury status heading into Detroit's Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.

When asked on Wednesday about running back RJ Harvey, Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton hinted that the rookie has not yet been fully unleashed and has a "rare running skill set." "There's that saying, 'You haven't seen anything yet,'" Payton noted to reporters. The 24-year-old has kept his fantasy value afloat with touchdowns while finding little room to work on the ground. Fortunately, Harvey has carved out a decent role in the passing game, picking up at least three targets in all but four outings. Payton's insinuation suggests the rookie is set to take off like a rocket ship, but he'll need to improve his efficiency as a rusher before that becomes a reality. Even with all that said, Harvey's workload has remained steady, and he has the athletic profile to be a successful NFL and fantasy asset. Look for him to continue improving this Sunday in a road clash with the Raiders. He's a high-end RB2 for that outing.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in a position to bounce back in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. After being the most consistent player in fantasy through his first 11 games, JSN finally came back down to Earth in Week 13. He logged just two receptions for 23 yards. These types of games happen relatively often for wide receivers. Week 13 was also a very strange game for Seattle. Quarterback Sam Darnold was relatively ineffective, but the Vikings' offense was completely inept. Seattle ultimately kicked a lot of field goals and scored on defense, which propelled them to victory. Although Smith-Njigba's matchup with the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14 is not ideal, he has proven to be matchup-proof in just about every game this year. Darnold's play should improve. It cannot get much worse than it has been over the last few weeks. Even with Darnold playing poorly, JSN has still managed to produce in fantasy. Start Smith-Njigba as a top-five option once again in Week 14.
