Tyler Lockett Leaves Early Due to Wrist Injury

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyler Lockett (wrist) reeled in 2-of-4 targets for ten yards in Sunday's 31-0 road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Lockett picked up a wrist injury late in the first half that had the team deem him questionable coming out of halftime. He'd re-enter the game in the third quarter, though he did not receive another opportunity in the passing game. It was a rough day for the offense as a whole, considering Las Vegas ran just 42 offensive plays and was shut out for the second time this season. Even if Lockett makes it through the upcoming week of practice without a setback, he may be falling out of favor in the offense. Rookie wideout Jack Bech has accrued a higher snap share than the veteran in the previous three games, out-producing him in each.

Devin Neal Ruled Out with Hamstring Injury

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of their Week 15 contest due to a hamstring injury. Neal sustained this injury in the first half. Before exiting, he was able to punch in a rushing score and tally 28 yards on seven attempts. The rookie also brought his lone target for four yards. With Alvin Kamara (knee) on the shelf and Kendre Miller (knee) shut down for this season, Neal has taken over RB1 duties in New Orleans. For the remainder of this contest, fantasy managers should expect Audric Estime and Evan Hull to split the backfield. Managers should keep a close eye on Neal's status during the week, as he would carry RB2 upside in a favorable matchup against the Jets in Week 16.

Tyquan Thornton Exits Sunday's Loss in Concussion Protocol

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (concussion) exited Sunday's loss to the Chargers in the concussion protocol. The wideout sustained this injury in the final frame after catching a 21-yard strike from Patrick Mahomes. Thornton finished the game with two catches on three targets for 47 yards. His yardage total trailed just Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce. With Marquise Brown unable to suit up due to personal reasons, Thornton saw a larger role. Managers should monitor his status leading up to their Week 16 matchup against the Titans. If he is unable to play, JuJu Smith-Schuster would likely see an increase in snaps but would not carry much fantasy value as their QB, Patrick Mahomes, exited this contest with a knee injury and is alos in danger of sitting out next week.

Devin Neal Exits with Hamstring Issue

Per the team, New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal (hamstring) is questionable to return for Sunday's home game against their division rival, the Carolina Panthers. The Kansas native picked up his third straight start in Week 15 with backfield mate Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) sidelined again. However, he'd exit the contest in the first half after picking up 32 total yards and a touchdown on his eight opportunities (one reception). For the time being, teammates Audric Estime and Evan Hull will divvy up the share of backfield touches in his stead. Hull has more total work on the campaign, although Estime has out-carried the former in each of their previous two outings.

Jacoby Brissett Has Three Touchdowns in Week 15 Loss

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett went 27-for-40 for 249 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in his team's 40-20 Week 15 loss to the Houston Texans. Brissett also had three carries for six yards on the ground. Arizona's pass-happy offense continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers week in and week out. The 33-year-old veteran has now thrown at least two touchdown passes in his last eight of nine games. Brissett has also thrown at least 40 passing attempts in his last six games and has thrown over 245 yards in every game he has started this season. If the Cardinals continue to play in pass-heavy game scripts, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback for the remainder of the season. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15.

Marvin Mims Jr. Being Evaluated for Concussion

The Denver Post's Parker Gabriel reports that Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) has exited Sunday's matchup with the Green Bay Packers to be evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return. Mims was forced from the contest in the first half, hauling in his lone target for a gain of five yards. With teammate Pat Bryant (hamstring) already having been ruled out before the contest with an issue of his own, Denver would be pretty thin at wide receiver. With the former second-round pick on the sideline, fellow wideouts Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Michael Bandy figure to pick up some extra snaps. As it stands, Humphrey, Bandy, Courtland Sutton, and Troy Franklin are the only remaining WRs without an injury designation on the active roster.

Trevor Lawrence Erupts for Six Total Touchdowns in Week 15 Blowout

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had a career day in the Week 15 48-20 win over the visiting New York Jets on Sunday. The fifth-year pro was excellent in the lopsided victory, completing 20-of-32 passes for 330 yards and five scores, adding 51 yards and an additional touchdown on the ground (five carries). Lawrence's five passing TDs were a new personal best and his most in a game since he threw four in Week 15 of the 2022 season. Over the last three outings, the 26-year-old has piled up a stellar 9:0 TD:INT ratio, while averaging 267.7 yards per game through the air -- over 40 yards higher than his average on the campaign as a whole (221.5). Sitting atop the AFC East with a game between them and their division-rival Houston Texans, Lawrence and the Jags will prepare for a far more challenging test next Sunday when they line up against the Denver Broncos on the road.

Trey McBride Sets Records in Week 15 Loss

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride had a historic day in the Week 15 loss against the Houston Texans, recording 12 catches for 134 yards with two touchdowns on 13 targets. McBride became the first tight end in NFL history with at least 100 receptions in consecutive seasons, and set a new NFL record for most consecutive games, 16, with at least five receptions. Travis Kelce had previously set the record in 2018 with 15 straight games, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. McBride's Week 15 performance is further magnified by his dominance against one of the best defenses in the NFL, highlighting his historic play in 2025. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 105 receptions for 1,071 yards and 10 touchdowns on 140 targets across 14 games this season. As long as McBride remains healthy, he profiles as the number one tight end in fantasy football by a healthy margin. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 16.

Patrick Mahomes Slated for MRI Following Knee Injury

Head coach Andy Reid reports that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) will undergo an MRI on his injured left knee. Mahomes exited Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers late in the fourth quarter after landing awkwardly on his left knee. It's never good news when an athlete suffers a non-contact injury, leaving questions about the former Texas Tech Red Raider's status for the remainder of the season. For what it's worth, Reid confirmed what most of us watching already knew, that the injury "didn't look good." Journeyman signal-caller Gardner Minshew worked in Mahomes' stead for the remainder of Week 15's outing, and projects to be the team's solution under center if the latter is forced to miss more time moving forward. Fantasy managers can expect an update on the 30-year-old within the next 24 hours.

Ricky Pearsall Returns to Game Following Visit to Medical Tent

San Francisco wide receiver Ricky Pearsall limped off the field and into the team's medical tent following his first catch of Week 15. Pearsall appeared to be dealing with an ankle issue after being tackled by a Tennessee defender. Following a brief stay in the medical tent, the second-year pro was seen exercising on the sideline and has since returned to action against the Titans.

Patrick Mahomes Helped To Locker Room Following Knee Injury

Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered an apparent knee injury late in the team's Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The three-time Super Bowl winner was replaced by Gardner Minshew on the Chiefs' final possession after taking a hit while attempting a pass. Mahomes did not return to the game and was seen being helped to the Kansas City locker room by members of the training staff. The Chiefs were mathematically eliminated from the NFL playoffs with the loss, marking the first time in Mahomes' career that he's failed to qualify for the postseason.

Luther Burden III Exits with Ankle Injury

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the visiting Cleveland Browns, according to the team. The rookie hauled in 6-of-7 targets for 84 yards (all team-highs) before exiting the contest in the second half with an ankle injury. If Burden is unable to rejoin his squad on the field, fellow wideout DJ Moore projects to see a considerable uptick in volume. Teammate Rome Odunze (foot) has already been ruled out after re-aggravating his foot issue, so Moore, Olamide Zaccheaus, and Devin Duvernay remain as the only active WRs without a designation. Expect an update on the University of Missouri product soon.

Bam Knight Ruled Out on Sunday With Ankle Injury

According to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com, Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight (ankle) will not return to the Week 15 road outing against the Houston Texans due to an ankle injury. Knight was initially deemed questionable to re-enter the game after he was carted off early on with an ankle injury. However, he'll now miss the remainder of the contest after recording a loss of two yards on his lone carry. Backfield mate Michael Carter has taken over lead rushing duties in the 24-year-old's stead, and he figures to get the bulk of the work this afternoon, considering teammate Emari Demercado entered the game with an ankle issue of his own. Depending on the severity of Knight's ailment, Carter could be a hot waiver add over the week ahead.

Emanuel Wilson • RB • Packers

Emanuel Wilson Will Suit Up Sunday

According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson (illness) will be active for this weekend's road matchup with the Denver Broncos. Wilson was listed on the Packers' injury report ahead of Week 15 with an illness. However, he'd miss no practice time as they gear up for their outing with the hosting Broncos. With teammate Josh Jacobs (knee) also in line to play, the 26-year-old should assume his established role as the former's change-of-pace option in Green Bay's backfield. Wilson was excellent in Jacobs' stead back in Week 12 (28/107/2), though he's racked up just 24 yards on seven carries over the previous two games, relegating him strictly to handcuff status with the veteran healthy.

Josh Jacobs Active Vs. Broncos

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) will be active for Sunday's contest with the hosting Denver Broncos, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Jacobs has been dealing with a knee injury since Week 11, though he's missed just one appearance because of it. Despite being tagged with two DNPs leading up to this weekend's outing, the 27-year-old will suit up and should be slated for his usual workhorse role against the Broncos. Fortunately for Green Bay, second-string rusher Emanuel Wilson (illness) is also expected to play, meaning the team's ground game will be at full strength against the league's second-best rush defense. Even with the injury, Jacobs is a high-floor RB2 option in Week 15.

Christian McCaffrey to Play in Week 15

Per the team, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (back, illness) will be active for Week 15's home matchup with the Tennessee Titans. Fresh off a bye week, the fantasy stalwart gave owners a scare after coming down with an illness. A late-week back issue offered no solace, but it appears that McCaffrey will be out there despite just one full practice this week. Fantasy managers can exhibit no worries slotting him into their lineups, as it doesn't appear he's in any danger of playing less than his typical allotment of snaps. McCaffrey is an elite RB1 option, and, officially, RotoBaller's PPR RB1 in this week's rankings.

Noah Brown Ruled Out for Remainder of Week 15 with Rib Injury

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (ribs) has been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants due to a rib injury. Brown suffered a back injury earlier in the game that he was able to return from, but his day is now done due to a rib ailment. The 29-year-old recorded one catch for 28 yards on one target before exiting the game. It's been an injury-marred 2025 for Brown, as he's appeared in just four games for Washington this season. Without him, Commanders wideouts Jaylin Lane and Treylon Burks could both see more playing time alongside star wide receivers Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr.

Andre Baccellia Ruled Out for Remainder of Week 15 with Neck Injury

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Andre Baccellia (neck) has been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 15 matchup against the Houston Texans due to a neck injury. ESPN's Josh Weinfuss reports that the 28-year-old has full movement of all his extremities and is headed to a Houston hospital for further evaluation. Baccellia did not earn a target or a reception before exiting the game. The Cardinals entered the week already missing wide receivers Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel), Xavier Weaver (hamstring), and Greg Dortch (chest), so the team is now even more short-handed at the position. Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson and tight end Trey McBride will likely continue to dominate from a target perspective, while wideouts Jalen Brooks and Trent Sherfield Sr. could both see more playing time.

Noah Fant Questionable to Return in Week 15 with Ankle Injury

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant (ankle) is questionable to return to his team's Week 15 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens with an ankle injury. The 28-year-old did not record a target or reception before exiting the game. Fant entered Week 15 with 33 receptions for 283 yards and three touchdowns on 39 targets across 12 games this season. If he is unable to return in Week 15, Bengals tight ends Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample, and Tanner Hudson could all see increased playing time. Gesicki has worked as the team's lead receiving tight end in recent weeks, earning 16 targets over his last three games heading into Week 15.

Woody Marks Questionable to Return in Week 15 With Ankle Injury

Houston Texans rookie running back Woody Marks (ankle) is questionable to return to his team's Week 15 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals due to an ankle injury. Marks recorded seven carries for 30 yards and one reception for eight yards before exiting the game. Houston entered the week already without veteran Nick Chubb (ribs), so the team's running back depth is being challenged in Week 15. If Marks is unable to return, Dare Ogunbowale and Jawhar Jordan would likely see the majority of Houston's backfield snaps for the remainder of the game against Arizona. Ogunbowale and Jordan entered the week with just four combined carries on the season.
