Award-Winning Fantasy Football Advice

Raiders QB Geno Smith (shoulder, back) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He should be back under center this weekend but isn't a fantasy option in any format against Houston's top-ranked QB defense. The Raiders are implied for a pathetic 11.75 points.

Broncos RB R.J. Harvey (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. He exited in the fourth quarter of last week's win over the Packers but is set to play vs. the Jaguars on Sunday. Harvey ranks 11th among RBs in PPR points per game over the last three weeks and is a rock-solid RB2 play in Week 16 fantasy lineups.

Broncos WR Pat Bryant (hamstring) was a full-go in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Jaguars. Bryant had emerged as Denver's No. 2 WR before missing Week 15. His return knocks WR Troy Franklin out of Week 16 fantasy consideration.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) was limited in Wednesday's practice. That gives him a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Falcons. "Doing good," HC Jonathan Gannon said of Harrison. "He’ll be out there today. We’ll see how the week goes." Harrison would be in the WR3 mix if he plays against Atlanta -- and knock WR Michael Wilson to WR3 status. We'll keep you updated on the situation.

Falcons WR Drake London (knee) got in a limited practice on Wednesday -- his first since going down back in Week 11. HC Raheem Morris once again labeled London "day to day" prior to practice. "Looking forward to seeing how much he’ll be able to potentially give us this week," Morris added. We wouldn't consider London a lock to return for Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals considering how long it took TE Brock Bowers and WR Ricky Pearsall to return from their PCL injuries. We'll keep you posted on London's status over the next few days.

Saints WR Devaughn Vele (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Jets, HC Kellen Moore said Wednesday. Vele has emerged as a key cog in New Orleans' passing game lately, totaling 16 catches, 202 yards, and a score over the last three games. His absence gives WR Chris Olave and TE Juwan Johnson more target upside.

Saints RB Devin Neal (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Jets, HC Kellen Moore said Wednesday. Don't be surprised if the rookie is done for the season with what seems like a relatively significant hamstring injury. RB Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) remained sidelined on Wednesday and looks likely to miss another game. That'd leave New Orleans' backfield to Audric Estime and Evan Hull vs. the Jets this weekend. The team also signed RB Nyheim Hines to the practice squad on Wednesday. This is a backfield to avoid in Week 16 fantasy lineups.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins (concussion) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He still has work to do to clear protocol in time for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. We'll keep you updated on Higgins' progress over the next few days.

Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (groin) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. He went down in last Friday's practice and then missed the Chiefs game, but it looks like he has a chance to make it back for this weekend's game vs. the Cowboys. Johnston's return would take WR Tre Harris out of deep-league consideration.
