| 1. | Eagles | D. Jackson scores Week 11 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Philadelphia Eagles WR DeSean Jackson caught eight passes for 107 yards with a touchdown Week 11. Jackson also had a 10-yard carry in the game. | 4 hours | |
| 2. | Jackson racks up 107 yards in Week 11 | (Rotoworld) DeSean Jackson caught eight passes for 107 yards and a touchdown and ran once for 10 yards in the Eagles' Week 11 win over the Bears. Analysis: Jackson broke free down the middle, past two Bears defenders, for a 48-yard touchdown in the third quarter. He did lose a fumble, but once again showed top-notch speed and remains a quality WR2 play in any league. The Bears face a 21st-ranked Vikings secondary in Week 12. | 4 hours | |
| 3. | Clary carted off with ankle injury | (FFChamps) San Diego Chargers' tackle Jeromey Clary was carted off the field Sunday with a left ankle injury. Clary injured the ankle when a Bronco defender rolled up on his leg. He did not return to San Diego's 32-3 rout of division rival Denver. Analysis: In the post-game presser, coach Norv Turner alluded to Clary's injury potentially being of the significant variety. San Diego's offense is purring right now, but every chain is only as strong as it's weakest link...Brandyn Dombrowski is Clary's backup, and will most likely be the man who steps up and tries to avoid being that weak link. | 6 hours | |
| 4. | Bengals | Palmer runs two TDs in Week 11 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Cincinnati Bengals QB Carson Palmer was 14-for-22 for 207 yards with an interception Week 11 against the Oakland Raiders. He did have four carries for seven yards with two one-yard touchdown runs. He is the first Bengals quarterback to rush for two touchdowns since former QB Jack Thompson in 1979. | 8 hours | |
| 5. | Chargers | Rivers effective Week 11 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports San Diego Chargers QB Philip Rivers went 17-for-22 for 145 yards and one touchdown in Week 11. | 8 hours | |
| 6. | Carson Palmer scores two rushing TDs | (Rotoworld) Carson Palmer completed 14-of-22 passes for no touchdowns and one interception in the Bengals' Week 11 loss. Analysis: Two fluky one-yard rushing touchdowns saved his fantasy day; coming into the game he had not scrambled for a score since Week 2. The Bengals went with a run-heavy attack initially, and struggled to make plays in the passing game when the Raiders kept it close late. Palmer has a highly favorable stretch run schedule, however (vs. CLE, vs. DET, @ MIN), so keep him going. | 9 hours | |
| 7. | Gates held to 41 yards against Broncos | (Rotoworld) Antonio Gates was held to three catches for 41 yards against the Broncos in Week 11. Analysis: Gates was targeted just four times with the Chargers running 43 times to just 22 passing attempts. He was also the victim of bad luck, getting stopped at the 1-yard line on a 24-yard catch-and-run. Expect a better fantasy performance against the Chiefs next week. | 9 hours | |
| 8. | Rivers held to 145 yards in Week 11 | (Rotoworld) Philip Rivers completed 17-of-22 passes for 145 yards and one touchdown against the Broncos in Week 11. Analysis: He started the game 11-of-12 with the Broncos showing no pass rush whatsoever. Rivers was nearly flawless for the second straight week, but the Chargers stopped passing after jumping out to an early lead. He'll bounce back with a stronger fantasy performance next week against the Chiefs. | 9 hours | |
| 9. | Roddy White held to 45 yards in Week 11 | (Rotoworld) Roddy White was held to four catches for 45 yards against the Giants in Week 11. Analysis: White was targeted a team-high 12 times, but the shutdown version of Corey Webster reappeared and shadowed him around the field. White is on pace for 82 receptions, 1,141 yards, and 10 TDs. Start him with confidence against the Bucs next week. | 9 hours | |
| 10. | Bradshawn held to 34 yards in Week 11 | (Rotoworld) Ahmad Bradshaw rushed 12 times for 34 yards against the Falcons in Week 11. Analysis: Bradshaw picked up extra carries late with Brandon Jacobs sidelined by a knee injury, but he's losing playing time to Danny Ware. Bradshaw hasn't topped 50 yards since Week 5, and the foot/ankle injury appears to be killing his explosion. | 10 hours | |
| 11. | Williams held without a catch in win | (Rotoworld) Roy E. Williams was held without a catch in Sunday's win over the Redskins. Analysis: This was an abysmal performance by the entire Cowboys' offense. Williams had a chance for a big catch over the middle in the first half but got alligator arms and dropped it. Coming off two straight five-catch performances, this is an obvious setback. He'll be WR3 against the Raiders on Thursday. | 11 hours | |
| 12. | Roddy White | (RotoWire) White had four catches for 45 yards as the Falcons fell to the Giants in overtime 34-31. Analysis: No scores on Sunday, but White is among the best fantasy receivers out there. Expect a better showing next week against the lowly Buccaneers. | 11 hours | |
| 13. | Marion Barber gets plenty of work | (Rotoworld) Marion Barber rushed 20 times for 99 yards and caught one pass for eight yards in Sunday's win over the Redskins. Analysis: The Cowboys came out with a run-heavy attack as Albert Haynesworth (ankle) was sidelined. It worked well until a Barber fumble in the red zone cost the Cowboys a chance to take control of the game early. The Cowboys would be wise to stick with the run for the whole game against the Raiders on Thursday. Barber is a RB2. | 11 hours | |
| 14. | Evans held to one pass in Week 11 loss | (Rotoworld) Lee Evans caught just one pass for 15 yards in Week 11. Analysis: Evans gave way to fellow Buffalo wideout Terrell Owens, who racked up a season-high 197 yards and a touchdown against the Jaguars. Both are inconsistent fantasy players with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center. | 11 hours | |
| 15. | Jones-Drew nets 84 yards, TD in Week 11 ... | (Rotoworld) Maurice Jones-Drew rushed 25 times for 66 yards and a touchdown and caught for passes for 18 yards Sunday as the Jaguars topped the Bills 18-15. Analysis: The Jags pounded the ball with Jones-Drew for most of the day, as expected. He had trouble breaking free, but still netted 84 yards and managed to find pay dirt on three-yard scamper in the second quarter. He remains a top fantasy play heading into next week's matchup with the 49ers. | 12 hours | |
| 16. | Roddy White active Sunday against the Gi... | (Rotoworld) Roddy White is active Sunday against the Giants, as expected. Analysis: White was listed as questionable on the injury report coming in, but hasn't missed a game in his five-year career. The Giants have struggled badly to cover No. 1 receivers of late, so White is a high-quality WR1 play on Sunday. | 16 hours | |
| 17. | Falcons | White to play against New York | (KFFL) ESPN reports Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) will play during Week 11 versus the New York Giants. | 17 hours | |
| 18. | Falcons' White will play on Sunday @ NYG | (Rotoworld) Roddy White (questionable, knee) will play on Sunday when the Falcons take on the Giants in the Meadowlands. Analysis: White has been listed as questionable for the past three weeks and hasn't missed a game. He'll start against a struggling Giants' defense coming off their bye week while getting CB Aaron Ross back. | 19 hours | |
| 19. | Gage ruled out for Monday night | (FFChamps) Titans wide receiver Justin Gage has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Texans. Gage has not practiced since after the Titans' Week 9 game against the 49ers. Gage broke the transverse process bones in his back after landing hard from making an acrobatic catch. Analysis: Titans rookie Kenny Britt will make his second consecutive start in Gage's absence. He caught two passes for 55 yards against the Bills last Sunday and is leading the Titans in receiving yards (351) and is tied for third on the team in receptions (22). | 1 day | |
| 20. | White questionable again | (FFChamps) Atlanta Falcons' wide receiver Roddy White is listed as questionable for the third consecutive week. The Falcons travel to New York to face the Giants in Week 11. Analysis: No worries here, White has been questionable the last three weeks, and looked fine each week. Expect more of the same in New York from Matt Ryan's favorite target on the outside. Assuming the status quo holds, and White is out there on Sunday, we have him as a top-15 play at wide receiver this weekend against a suspect Giants' secondary. | 2 days | |
| 21. | Stroud ruled out for Week 11 | (FFChamps) Buffalo Bills' defensive tackle Marcus Stroud (knee) has been ruled out for the team's Week 11 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Analysis: Buffalo has the worst run defense in the league. Stroud is Buffalo's best run-stopper. Maurice Jones-Drew scores touchdowns whenever he wants to. He plays the Bills this weekend. How do you see this story ending? MJD was our No. 1 fantasy play at running back this weekend whether the big fella in the middle for the Bills played or not, but without Stroud clogging the lanes, Jones-Drew will probably ... (More) | 2 days | |
| 22. | Coles probable | (FFChamps) Cincinnati Bengals' wide receiver Laveranues Coles (head) practiced fully on Friday, and is listed as probable for the team's game versus the Oakland Raiders. Analysis: Coles will most likely be good-to-go for Sunday. You have to think Chad Ochocinco will be blanketed by all-world cover specialist Nnamdi Asomugha for most of the contest, so Coles may get even more looks than normal this weekend (though, as it stands, he has led the team in targets over the past two weeks). Coles is no longer the deep threat he was in New York, but he is a v... (More) | 2 days | |
| 23. | Chargers | Gates practices Friday, will play Week 11 | (KFFL) San Diego Chargers TE Antonio Gates (foot) practiced Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as probable for Week 11 and will play. | 2 days | |
| 24. | Haynesworth very questionable | (FFChamps) According to ESPN's John Clayton, Washington Redskins' defensive lineman Albert Hayneworth (ankle) is "very questionable" for this Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. Clayton speculates that the Redskins' biggest offseason acquisition could very well see "little or no work" even if he is active on gameday. Analysis: This is obviously a huge blow to the Skins' run defense. Even if Haynesworth plays, it sounds like he will not be close to 100 percent. Kedric Golston is his backup on the D-line. The Cowboys' running game has been sporadic this season, with all three backs (More) | 2 days | |
| 25. | Cowboys | Barber practices Friday, will play Week 11 | (KFFL) Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) practiced Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as probable for Week 11 and will play. | 2 days | |
| 26. | Gates practices, is probable | (FFChamps) San Diego Chargers' tight end Antonio Gates practiced in full on Friday, and is listed as probable against the Denver Broncos. Analysis: It's the biggest game of the year in the AFC West (a.k.a., the ONLY game in the AFC West that will matter all year), so expect Gates to suit-up and be roaming the middle of the suddenly Charmin-esque Broncos' defense come Sunday. Unfortunately for Gates, a certain Brian Dawkins also calls this territory home, and though Denver has shown cracks the last few weeks, we think Dawkins' presence downgrades Gates to a borderline No. 1/No. 2 fantasy tight end this weekend. | 2 days | |
| 27. | Falcons' Michael Turner doubtful; Roddy White, Jerious Norwood questionable | (FFToolbox) Three of the Atlanta Falcons' more critical offensive skill players are at least questionable to play Sunday against the New York Giants. Running back Michael Turner is the most unlikely of the three to participate. He has not practiced since suffering a high right ankle sprain last Sunday and is listed as doubtful. Jason Snelling is expected to start in his place. Fellow backup running back Jerious Norwood was reportedly a "long shot" to play earlier in the week, but he practi... (More) | 2 days | |
| 28. | Antonio Gates | (RotoWire) Gates (foot) practiced fully again on Friday and is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Analysis: It's safe to start Gates as you normally would this week. | 2 days | |
| 29. | Antonio Gates back to full practice | (Rotoworld) Antonio Gates (probable, foot) practiced in full again on Friday. Analysis: Gates is certain to start Sunday against the Broncos. He's been getting Wednesday practices off to rest the foot he had surgery on prior to the 2008 season. Gates is a top-five fantasy tight end in all formats. | 2 days | |
| 30. | Marion Barber | (RotoWire) Barber (thumb) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Washington, the Dallas Morning News reports. Analysis: Barber should be fine on Sunday, but he was kept out of much of the fourth quarter last week when the Cowboys were in passing mode. He gets a tough matchup this week against Washington. | 2 days | |
| 31. | Maurice Jones-Drew | (RotoWire) Jones-Drew gets a great matchup this week against the Bills, who rank last in the NFL in run defense. Analysis: Not that you really need an excuse to start Jones-Drew, but this game has as much potential as Tennessee's Chris Johnson had heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Bills. They have several defensive starters out, including Marcus Stroud, and have been getting shredded by the run all season. | 2 days | |
| 32. | Giants | Bradshaw probable for Week 11 | (KFFL) Ralph Vacchiano, of the New York Daily News, reports New York Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw (ankle) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as probable for Week 11 and will be able to play. | 2 days | |
| 33. | Roddy White | (RotoWire) White (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, the New York Daily News' Ralph Vacchiano reports. Analysis: The questionable tag has become a weekly trend for White, but he's played the last two weeks and we aren't overly concerned about his Week 11 status. We don't want you to get burned, however, so check back Sunday morning to verify White's availability. | 2 days | |
| 34. | Roddy White questionable again | (Rotoworld) Roddy White (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 11, but is fully expected to play against the Giants. Analysis: White's been "questionable" for three weeks running, but hasn't missed a game. He'll start against a Giants club that struggles to stop No. 1 wideouts. | 2 days | |
| 35. | Ahmad Bradshaw | (RotoWire) Bradshaw (foot) practiced again Friday and is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, the Newark Star-Ledger reports. Analysis: Bradshaw got more touches than Brandon Jacobs last week, but he averaged just 2.8 yards per carry. Expect the scales to tip back in Jacobs' favor this week. | 2 days | |
| 36. | Falcons | White questionable for Week 11 | (KFFL) D. Orlando Ledbetter, of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, reports Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) was limited during practice Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as questionable for Week 11 but will be able to play. | 2 days | |
| 37. | Bradshaw participates Friday | (Rotoworld) Ahmad Bradshaw (foot) participated in Giants practice again Friday. Analysis: Bradshaw's partially cracked foot appears to be getting healthier, but he's been pulled off third downs and will likely see a decrease in touches over the next few games. The third-year tailback isn't a fantasy option going forward. | 2 days | |
| 38. | Jonathan Stewart | (RotoWire) Stewart (Achilles) ran for 43 yards on 12 carries in Thursday's loss to Miami. Analysis: The Panthers mistakenly went with an aerial-heavy attack, rushing the ball just 25 times with their two backs on Thursday night. Stewart should benefit from the long break before the Panthers return to action against the Jets in Week 12. | 2 days | |
| 39. | Maurice Jones-Drew | (RotoWire) Jones-Drew, in the wake of the last-second kneel-down that cost thousands of fantasy owners their games on Sunday, has promised to score more to make up for his fantasy misdeed, according to ESPN.com. Analysis: Jones-Drew noted that "you should tell those 10,000 (the approximate number of ESPN players who lost their fantasy games last week due to Jones-Drew not scoring that final touchdown)) I will score next time." | 2 days | |
| 40. | Panthers | D. Williams, J. Stewart active for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers DeAngelo Williams (knee) and RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') are active for the team's Week 11 game. | 3 days | |
| 41. | Stewart held to 43 yards in Week 11 loss | (Rotoworld) Jonathan Stewart rushed 12 times for 43 yards against the Dolphins in Week 11. Analysis: Stewart was never able to break a long run, and the Panthers uncharacteristically elected to keep the ball in Jake Delhomme's hands near the goal-line. With little work in the passing game, Stewart remains highly dependent touchdowns for weekly fantasy relevance. He's worth consideration as a flex option against the Jets next week. | 3 days | |
| 42. | Antonio Gates returns to full practice | (Rotoworld) Antonio Gates (foot) returned to a full practice Thursday. Analysis: Gates was simply given a veteran day off Wednesday. He remains a TE1 this week even against a Broncos defense that has been tough on tight ends. | 3 days | |
| 43. | Chargers | Gates practices in full Thursday | (KFFL) San Diego Chargers TE Antonio Gates (foot) practiced in full Thursday, Nov. 19, and will play Week 11. | 3 days | |
| 44. | Antonio Gates | (RotoWire) Gates (foot) practiced fully Thursday. Analysis: He'll likely be listed as probable come Friday, but Gates says he's feeling healthy and that his missed practices are a maintenance deal, so he'll be out there Sunday against the Broncos. | 3 days | |
| 45. | Cowboys | Barber practices in full Thursday | (KFFL) Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) practiced in full Thursday, Nov. 19. | 3 days | |
| 46. | Panthers inactives for Week 11 | (FFChamps) The Carolina Panthers have announced the following players as inactive for tonight's game against the Miami Dolphins: RB Mike Goodson, WR Kenneth Moore, S Charles Godfrey, FB Brad Hoover, OG Duke Robinson, DE Charles Johnson, DE Hilee Taylor, and QB A.J. Feeley. Analysis: Breathe easy...DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, who were both listed as questionable, will play for the Panthers tonight. It's not an easy matchup against the seventh-ranked Dolphins run defense, but include them in your starting lineup if you would normally do so. | 3 days | |
| 47. | Panthers | D. Williams, J. Stewart active for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers DeAngelo Williams (knee) and RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') are active for the team's Week 11 game. | 3 days | |
| 48. | Bradshaw limited in Thursday's practice | (Rotoworld) Ahmad Bradshaw (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice. Analysis: Bradshaw will play against the Falcons, but he hasn't topped 50 rushing yards since Week 5 and stands to lose playing time to Danny Ware on passing downs. We have him ranked as just the No. 38 fantasy option at RB this week. | 3 days | |
| 49. | Roddy White returns to limited practice | (Rotoworld) Roddy White (knee) returned to a limited practice Thursday. Analysis: White has missed practice time the past two weeks, but the knee soreness hasn't affected him in game action. We have him ranked as the No. 6 fantasy WR this week in a matchup with the Giants. | 3 days | |
| 50. | Falcons | White limited Thursday | (KFFL) D. Orlando Ledbetter, of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, reports Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) was limited in practice Thursday, Nov. 19, but is likely to play in Week 11. | 3 days | |
| 51. | Stewart expected to play | (FFChamps) Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart is expected to play in tonight's game against the Dolphins, according to a Tweet this afternoon from ESPN's Adam Schefter. Stewart is listed as questionable on the injury report because of his lingering Achilles' tendon injury; however, he is listed as questionable every week because of the ailment and keeps playing. Moreover, he practiced fully on Wednesday. Analysis: The Dolphins are stout against the run, but Stewart is an every-week threat to at least hit paydirt from short range. If he is typically in your fantasy lineup, don't let his misleading questionabl... (More) | 3 days | |
| 52. | Williams expected to play | (FFChamps) Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams is expected to play in tonight's game against the Dolphins, according to a Tweet this afternoon from ESPN's Adam Schefter. Williams did not practice Wednesday beause of his sore knee and is listed as questionable for the game. Analysis: Williams was a game time decision this past Sunday after being listed as questionable, yet played the entire game. The Dolphins will be a tough matchup, but we suspect Schefter is right and that Williams will suit up. In most cases, unless you are loaded at running back, that means he should be in your fantasy lineup as well. | 3 days | |
| 53. | Ahmad Bradshaw | (RotoWire) Bradshaw (ankle/foot) scrapped his protective boot and practiced Thursday, the Daily News reports. Analysis: That's a good sign, as he has typically been sitting out Thursdays in order to maintain his foot/ankle issue. Bradshaw should be fine for Sunday's game against the Falcons. | 3 days | |
| 54. | Schefter confirms that Stewart will play | (Rotoworld) Jonathan Stewart (heel, questionable) is expected to play Thursday night, confirms ESPN's Adam Schefter. Analysis: No news here. Stewart was never in danger of sitting out the game despite the questionable tag. He's a solid flex play. | 3 days | |
| 55. | Giants | Bradshaw limited Thursday | (KFFL) Ralph Vacchiano, of the New York Daily News, reports New York Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw (ankle) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 19. He is expected to play in Week 11. | 3 days | |
| 56. | Bradshaw back at practice | (Rotoworld) Ahmad Bradshaw (foot) returned to Giants practice Thursday. Analysis: It's a little different routine this week for Bradshaw, who usually just practices on Fridays before suiting up on Sundays. He was probably limited Thursday, but it's still a good sign for the status of his fragile foot. | 3 days | |
| 57. | Gates says his health has been the key | (Rotoworld) Antonio Gates says he is completely healthy after nagging injuries limited his play in 2008. Analysis: Gates says he takes Wednesdays off just to "maintain feeling great." He's averaging 7.1 yards after the catch this season while his career mark is 4.4. Additionally, this is the first time in his career he has had more than 49 receiving yards in nine straight games. There's no reason to think he will have any drop off down the stretch. | 3 days | |
| 58. | Williams questionable for Thursday night | (FFChamps) Carolina Panthers' running back DeAngelo Williams is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Miami Dolphins. Williams was questionable for Week 10, as well, but played a full compliment of snaps and showed no ill effects of his lingering knee injury in a victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Analysis: Williams averaged nearly 5.0 YPC on 17 carries last weekend, despite being a game-time decision. There were no reports of Williams tweaking the knee any further, and the fact that Carolina gave him a significant workload against the Falcons in Week 10 makes us think the knee isn't a huge...

| 59. | Cowboys | Barber practices in full Wednesday | (KFFL) Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) practiced in full Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 4 days | |
| 60. | Falcons | R. White misses practice Wednesday | (KFFL) Atlanta Falcons WR Roddy White (knee) missed the team's practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 4 days | |
| 61. | Chargers | Gates misses practice Wednesday | (KFFL) San Diego Chargers TE Antonio Gates (foot) missed the team's practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 4 days | |
| 62. | Antonio Gates | (RotoWire) Gates (foot) missed Wednesday's practice, the San Diego Union Tribune reports. Analysis: Until we hear otherwise, we'll assume this is a routine day off for Gates. | 4 days | |
| 63. | Lee Evans | (RotoWire) Evans will have Ryan Fitzpatrick as his quarterback Sunday against Jacksonville instead of Trent Edwards. Analysis: Evans seems to have a better rapport with Fitzpatrick, as Fitz takes more shots downfield than Edwards. In the three games where Fitzpatrick quarterbacked the majority of the game, Evans has gone 11/172/2, and in the six games Edwards has started and finished, he's gone 16/209/3. The biggest problem for Evans is that the team's offensive line is lousy, so they're not giving him enough time to get open downfield. | 4 days | |
| 64. | Marion Barber | (RotoWire) Barber (thumb) participated fully in practice Wednesday, the Dallas Morning News reports. Analysis: Barber's thumb hinders his ability to pass block, which kept him out for much of the fourth quarter in last Sunday's loss to Green Bay. He should do better than five carries this week, but the loss of Marc Colombo and the Redskins' staunch defensive front makes him only a mediocre fantasy play. | 4 days | |
| 65. | Cowboys | Barber practices in full Wednesday | (KFFL) Todd Archer, of The Dallas Morning News, reports Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) practiced in full Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 4 days | |
| 66. | Antonio Gates held out of practice | (Rotoworld) Antonio Gates (foot) was held out of Chargers practice Wednesday. Analysis: Gates usually gets Wednesdays off. He'll play against the Broncos. | 4 days | |
| 67. | Giants to decrease Bradshaw's usage? | (Rotoworld) The Giants appear to be intent on using Danny Ware more going forward, which could limit Ahmad Bradshaw's role on offense. Analysis: Ware is expected to take over as New York's full-time back on third downs, which had previously involved Bradshaw. Brandon Jacobs has averaged 5.35 yards per touch in the Giants' last four games, so his role is unlikely to decrease. The team may be growing concerned with Bradshaw's partially cracked foot. Ware is also considered the club's best back in blitz pickup. | 4 days | |
| 68. | Roddy White | (RotoWire) White (knee) did not practice Wednesday, the Falcons' official site reports. Analysis: White has either been held out or limited the past two Wednesdays, but managed to play both times. Look for a similar situation to unfold this week. | 4 days | |
| 69. | Ahmad Bradshaw | (RotoWire) Bradshaw (ankle/foot) did not practice Wednesday, the Giants' official site reports. Analysis: Bradshaw typically rests on Wednesday, so there's no cause for concern here. He should be fine for Sunday's game against the Falcons. | 4 days | |
| 70. | Roddy White misses practice | (Rotoworld) Roddy White (knee) was held out of Falcons practice Wednesday. Analysis: White has been routinely been limited or held out of practice lately, but the alleged knee injury didn't affect his Week 10 numbers. He had 98 yards on seven catches against a Carolina pass defense that ranks No. 4 in the NFL. | 4 days | |
| 71. | Panthers | Stewart questionable for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. He is listed as questionable for Week 11 but will be able to play. | 4 days | |
| 72. | Jonathan Stewart | (RotoWire) Stewart (Achilles) practiced on Wednesday, but is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Darin Gantt of the Rock Hill Herald reports. Analysis: He should be ready to go against Miami despite the questionable tag. With DeAngelo Williams (knee) also listed as questionable for the second straight week, you'll want to check the inactives list prior to kickoff just in case anything unexpected happens. | 4 days | |
| 73. | Jonathan Stewart ready to go | (Rotoworld) Jonathan Stewart (heel, questionable) fully returned to Panthers practice Wednesday and is on track to play on Thursday night. Analysis: Stewart busted two touchdown runs, including one of 45 yards, in last week's win over Atlanta. He will be active against the Dolphins' No. 7 run defense. | 4 days | |
| 74. | Bradshaw skips Giants practice as usual | (Rotoworld) Ahmad Bradshaw (foot) will not practice Wednesday. Analysis: Not even the bye week could get Bradshaw out of his routine. His foot is very vulnerable and he could aggravate the injury at any time. Look for more of Brandon Jacobs down the stretch, although Bradshaw will almost certainly play against the Falcons this week. | 4 days | |
| 75. | Phillips admits he wants more balance | (Rotoworld) Cowboys coach Wade Phillips admitted that his offense needs to be more balanced. Analysis: The Cowboys called just three rushing plays in the second half of the Week 10 loss to the Packers and they are running just 43.1 percent of the time on the season. Marion Barber is starting to look explosive again after his early-season quad injury. Look for offensive coordinator Jason Garrett to feature the run more against the 'Skins this week, making Barber a nice RB2. | 4 days | |
| 76. | Stewart misses practice Tuesday | (TheHuddle) Carolina Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') did not practice Tuesday, Nov. 17. Analysis: This is probably a precautionary measure, as Stewart has had the Achilles' condition and still been able to play the last few weeks. He and DeAngelo Williams, however, have a tough matchup this week against the Miami run defense. Start Stewart if you're lacking RB depth, but temper your expectations. | 5 days | |
| 77. | Panthers | Stewart misses practice Tuesday | (KFFL) Carolina Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') did not practice Tuesday, Nov. 17. | 5 days | |
| 78. | Jonathan Stewart misses practice again | (Rotoworld) Jonathan Stewart (heel) missed practice again Tuesday. Analysis: Stewart is often held out of early-week practices, but he's never missed a game in his NFL career. Expect him to return to practice Wednesday and receive his normal 10-15 touches against the Dolphins Thursday night. | 5 days | |
| 79. | Jonathan Stewart | (RotoWire) Stewart (Achilles) was held out of practice on Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the Rock Hill Herald reports. Analysis: Not much surprise here, as the Panthers will likely try to keep him fresh during the short week of preparation for Thursday's game against the Dolphins. | 5 days | |
| 80. | Carson Palmer | (RotoWire) Palmer threw for only 178 yards in 30 attempts in Sunday's win over the Steelers, and didn't lead the team for any offensive touchdowns. Analysis: Palmer misfired a few times early when the Bengals were driving, forcing them to either settle for a field goal or even punt the ball away. However, he did do a good job of not forcing any passes that led to interceptions - as it turns out, the Bengals' lack of turnovers was a huge factor in the game. | 5 days | |
| 81. | Giants | Bradshaw sits out Monday | (KFFL) Mike Garafolo, of The Star-Ledger, reports New York Giants RB Ahmad Bradshaw (foot, ankle) sat out the team's practice Monday, Nov. 16. | 6 days | |
| 82. | Mason Crosby | (RotoWire) Crosby was 1-for-2 on field goals and 2-for-2 on extra points in Sunday's win over the Cowboys. Analysis: Crosby pushed a 52-yarder to the left but rebounded by drilling a 48-yard attempt before halftime. He's still one of the top fantasy kickers available. | 6 days | |
| 83. | Marion Barber | (RotoWire) Barber, who finished Sunday's game with just five rushes for 26 yards, wasn't on the field much in the fourth quarter because his thumb injury gave him problems in pass protection, the Dallas Morning News reports. Analysis: Of course that doesn't really explain Barber's lack of touches, since the game was still close until the fourth quarter. Expect the Cowboys to make sure Barber gets more work next week, even if he isn't able to stay on the field during obvious pass situations. | 6 days | |
| 84. | Jonathan Stewart | (RotoWire) Stewart (Achilles) did not practice on Monday, the Panthers' official site reports. Analysis: With the quick turnaround because of a Thursday game against the Dolphins in Week 11, it wouldn't be all that surprising to see Stewart limited to just one practice this week. He appeared to be healthy on Sunday with a pair of TD runs in a win over Atlanta, so feel free to use him as you normally would in Week 11 barring a setback. | 6 days | |
| 85. | DeSean Jackson | (RotoWire) Jackson had eight receptions for 91 yards in the Eagles' loss Sunday. Analysis: Jackson briefly left the game with an ankle injury but quickly returned so it shouldn't be a problem moving forward. He gets the Bears in Chicago in Week 11. | 6 days | |
| 86. | Jonathan Stewart misses practice | (Rotoworld) Jonathan Stewart (heel) was held out of Panthers practice Monday. Analysis: Dolphins beat writer Omar Kelly has the initial injury report for Thursday. Kelly tweets that, "Carolina might be without one of their workhorses," but we know that missing early-week practice has been routine for Stewart all year. He's coming off an 82-yard, two-TD game and is a safe bet to face Miami. | 6 days | |
| 87. | Panthers | Stewart misses practice Monday | (KFFL) Carolina Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles) did not participate in practice Monday, Nov. 16. | 6 days | |
| 88. | Cowboys | Barber bothered by thumb in Week 10 | (KFFL) Todd Archer, of The Dallas Morning News, reports Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) was bothered by his fractured thumb in the second half of the game in Week 10. | 6 days | |
| 89. | Barber's injured thumb limited his role | (Rotoworld) Cowboys coach Wade Phillips revealed that Marion Barber's fractured thumb led to reduced snaps in the second half of Sunday's loss. Analysis: Barber had four carries for 27 yards in the first quarter, but the thumb was giving him problems in pass protection. MB3 finished with just eight touches, although Felix Jones (three) and Tashard Choice (four) didn't emerge as major threats to his workload. Barber isn't in danger of sitting out Week 11. | 6 days | |
| 90. | MJD first to top 100 on Rex Ryan since 2... | (Rotoworld) With 123 yards Sunday, Maurice Jones-Drew became the first running back to top 100 rushing yards against a Rex Ryan defense since Larry Johnson accomplished the feat in 2006. Analysis: Much of that can be attributed to the loss of NT Kris Jenkins (ACL), but Jones-Drew is enjoying an excellent season. He leads the league with 12 touchdowns while averaging 120 yards per game and 5.1 yards per carry in his first stint as the Jags' every-down back. | 6 days | |
| 91. | Eagles | Jackson dinged in Week 10 | (KFFL) Bob Brookover and Jeff McLane, of The Philadelphia Inquirer, report Philadelphia Eagles WR DeSean Jackson (ankle) had suffered an ankle injury in Week 10, but head coach Andy Reid did not make mention of the injury following the game. Jackson did play the entire game. | 6 days |
