Cardinals RB Trey Benson (knee) will remain on IR, ending his 2025 season. The 23-year-old hasn’t played since Week 4.

Buccaneers TE Cade Otton (knee) is doubtful for Thursday night's game against the Falcons. He's averaged 5.1 targets per game this season, although that's sunk to 3.0 over the last two games with WR Chris Godwin ramping up. Otton will be replaced by some combination of TEs Payne Durham and Devin Culp, but neither is a fantasy option. Expect more targets to be funneled to the WRs and RBs.

Buccaneers HC Todd Bowles said Wednesday morning that WR Mike Evans (collarbone) has shown everything he's needed to show in practice to be activated for Thursday night's game vs. the Falcons. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report later today, but we're now projecting Evans to play in this one. OC Josh Grizzard said last week that Evans would likely be on a snap count in his first game back, so don't expect his usual level of playing time against Atlanta. That said, we'd expect to see him on the field in high-leverage situations, particularly near the end zone. You'd ideally wait a week before getting Evans back in fantasy lineups, but he's at least in the WR3/4 mix based on his TD upside. Consider Evans' return a slight ding to WR Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin's outlooks.

The Indianapolis Colts have signed veteran QB Philip Rivers to their practice squad. With QB Riley Leonard week-to-week with a knee injury, Rivers bolsters the QB depth in case he is needed. He will compete with QB Brett Rypien, also on the practice squad, for the back-up job. But, it isn’t out of the question for Rivers to start at some point with the Colts trying to claw their way into the playoffs.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that WR D.K. Metcalf is "moving in the right direction" and should be able to play vs. the Dolphins on Monday night. Metcalf was hospitalized after experiencing stomach pains following last week's win over the Ravens. But he was released a short while later and seems to be doing fine. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week, but it sounds like Metcalf will be available to use in Week 15 fantasy lineups.

Chargers RB Omarion Hampton ran for 56 yards and caught the team's lone TD in his return Monday night from an ankle injury that had sidelined him since Week 5. Hampton rushed 13 times vs. 14 for Kimani Vidal, who officially got the start. Hampton also edged Vidal 2-1 in catches, though Vidal led the backfield in targets and routes. His 23 routes marked a 56% rate vs. total Chargers dropbacks and beat Hampton by 15. Vidal took his lone catch for 60 yards and gained 44 yards on his 14 rushes (3.1 per carry).

The Chargers went understandably run heavy in Monday night's OT win over the Eagles. They had QB Justin Herbert just a week removed from surgery for a fracture in his left hand, plus they got rookie RB Omarion Hampton back for the first time since Week 5 (ankle injury). But the final tally of 38 team rushes to just 26 pass attempts obscures the true play breakdown. Herbert ran a season-high 10 times for the game, but that included a season-high eight scrambles vs. just two designed runs. Those designed rushes didn't come until the Chargers' final possession of regulation and then their first of OT. And that fourth-quarter carry was actually designed to go to Vidal. Herbert decided to keep it after seeing a pair of defenders disrupt the blocking.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert snagged a game-high 8 receptions for 78 yards in Monday night's OT loss to the Chargers. His 10 targets trailed only WR A.J. Brown's 13 in a game that included a season-high 40 Philly pass attempts.

The Eagles had nothing working in the pass game Monday night against the Chargers. But the run game finally got going. Saquon Barkley racked up 122 yards and a TD on 20 carries, thanks primarily to a re-emergence of chunk plays. Barkley's biggest strike came from 52 yards out for a lead-grabbing TD early in the fourth quarter. He added three other runs of 10+ yards, including a first-half sequence that produced 19- and 10-yard gains on consecutive first-down carries.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw up maybe the worst performance of his career in Monday night's OT loss to the Chargers. He tossed a career-high 4 INTs, and narrowly avoided a fifth thanks to the ball hitting the ground before S R.J. Mickens could secure it. Hurts also achieved the rare feat of turning the ball over twice on the same play. He threw a pick to DT Da'Shawn Hand, who fumbled while returning. Hurts recovered that fumble but then lost his own to give it back to the Chargers. The Philly QB also contributed zero TDs for the first time all season and even ran for only 8 yards on four attempts.

Colts QB Riley Leonard is considered "week to week" with a strained ligament in his knee, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That's a more pessimistic report than we got earlier today and has Leonard sounding very iffy for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. Meanwhile, the Colts are having QB Philip Rivers in for a workout on Tuesday. Yeah, that Philip Rivers. The 44-year-old has not played since 2020 but has plenty of familiarity with HC Shane Steichen's offense. Steichen was Rivers' QBs coach with the Chargers from 2016 to 2019 and interim OC in 2019. We'll see where this goes over the next couple of days, but Rivers is no more than a speculative stash in 2-QB and superflex leagues. And even there, we wouldn't go dropping anyone of value for him.

Chargers QB Justin Herbert (hand) is active for tonight's game vs. the Eagles. He'll be playing with significant protection on that injured left hand. (Here's video of him warming up tonight.) It figures to impact his ball handling and adds some risk to using Herbert in fantasy lineups. This is also a tough matchup against Philadelphia's sixth-ranked QB defense.

Cowboys HC Brian Schottenheimer said Monday that WR CeeDee Lamb is "doing good" and "progressing nicely" after sustaining a concussion in Thursday night's loss to the Lions. The extra few days between games should give Lamb a good chance to be cleared in time for Sunday night's game vs. the Vikings. We'll keep you updated on Lamb throughout the week.

The Chargers on Monday activated RB Omarion Hampton from IR. That clears the way for him to play tonight against the Eagles. It would be his first action since a Week 5 ankle injury.

Falcons WR Drake London (knee) was listed on a non-participant in Monday's practice. HC Raheem Morris labeled him "day to day," as he did last week. Fantasy owners should not be counting on London returning for Thursday night's game vs. the Buccaneers. We'll let you know if his outlook improves.

Bengals Edge Trey Hendrickson will have core-muscle surgery, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The procedure is expected to keep him out of action for six weeks, which would obviously cost him the rest of this season.

Commanders HC Dan Quinn said Monday that QB Jayden Daniels' is "sore" but that there's no long-term concern about the health of his left elbow. Quinn declined to say whether Daniels will play against the Giants on Sunday. We'll keep you updated on the situation, but we're starting the week projecting QB Marcus Mariota to get the start. Daniels has dealt with knee, hamstring, and elbow injuries in this lost season for Washington.

Colts HC Shane Steichen revealed Monday that CB Charvarius Ward sustained a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars, according to ESPN's Stephen Holder. That marks the third time this season that Ward has landed in the concussion protocol.

Bengals HC Zac Taylor said Monday that WR Tee Higgins is back in the concussion protocol. Higgins played Sunday after a one-game absence, then reported concussion symptoms after the loss to the Bills. We'll track his progress this week, but fantasy owners should have a backup plan in place. The Bengals return home to face Baltimore on Sunday.

Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell avoided serious injury in the knee that knocked him out of Sunday's loss to the Steelers. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Mitchell sustained "no structural damage," and Baltimore HC John Harbaugh calls the RB "day to day."
