Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (calf) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Chargers. He hurt his calf last Friday, smoked the Seahawks for 303 total yards on Sunday and then got in 3 limited practices this week. We’re fully expecting Jacobs to play on Sunday, but we’ll look for further updates on his status.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. We’ll see if the rookie can make it back for that one after going down in Week 9, but he shouldn’t be in your fantasy plans. Christian Watson, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb should remain locked in as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs this week.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (calf) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We're expecting him to play through this injury vs. the Chargers on Sunday, like he did last weekend when he dismantled the Seahawks.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (calf) was limited in Wednesday's practice. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero set off alarms with a Tuesday tweet that suggested Jacobs might not play vs. the Chargers this weekend. But getting in a limited practice on Wednesday -- after dominating with this injury this past Sunday -- suggests that Jacobs will be available. We'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday -- his 1st since going down in Week 9. We'll see if Doubs is ready to play vs. the Bears this weekend, but we'd expect him to return as no better than the #4 WR behind Allen Lazard, Christian Watson and slot man Randall Cobb.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is not expected to practice much, if at all, this week with his calf strain, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "He’ll get around-the-clock treatment in hopes of playing Sunday against the Chargers," Pelissero adds. It's a surprising report after Jacobs blew up for 303 total yards and 2 TDs vs. the Seahawks last week -- after hurting that calf on Friday. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week. If Jacobs can't go on Sunday, Vegas would likely deploy a committee with RBs Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden.

Packers RB AJ Dillon ran for 64 yards and a TD on 8 carries in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. It was his 1st score since the season opener. Dillon added 3 receptions for 24 yards among 3 targets. RB Aaron Jones added 43 rushing yards on 12 carries and 3-56-1 receiving on 4 targets. The Green Bay backfield gets a favorable matchup with the Bears in Week 13 before a Week 14 bye.

Packers rookie WR Christian Watson scored for the 3rd straight game, delivering a 63-yard catch-and-run TD in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. That powered a 4-110-1 receiving line on a team-leading 6 targets. Green Bay threw just 25 passes in a game that saw QB Aaron Rodgers leave early, so Watson accounted for a 24% share. RB Aaron Jones, RB AJ Dillon and WR Randall Cobb tied for 2nd with 4 targets apiece. Jones and Cobb caught the team's other 2 TD passes. WR Allen Lazard contributed just 2 receptions for 24 yards among 3 targets. TE Robert Tonyan caught all 3 of his targets for 20 yards.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs entered Sunday questionable with a calf issue that arose in Friday's practice. He finished the day with a 33-229-2 rushing line and 6-74 receiving in a 40-34 win over the Seahawks. Jacobs finished off an already strong outing with an 86-yard TD dash in OT. Jacobs set season highs in both rushing yards and receiving yards and topped 20 carries for the 3rd straight game. He's a weekly must start the rest of the way.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He was added to the injury report and limited in Friday’s practice with a calf. He evidently looked and felt good enough in pregame warmups, though, and we haven’t heard anything about him being limited today.

ESPN's Adam Schefter calls Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (calf) "likely" to play against the Seahawks today, barring a pregame setback. Jacobs was added to the injury report on Friday and listed as questionable, which certainly adds risk to his Week 12 fantasy profile. But he'd be tough to bench if he ends up active. Raiders-Seahawks doesn't kick off until 4:05 pm ET, so Jacobs owners would be wise to have a late-game alternative lined up just in case Jacobs ends up missing this one.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after suffering an apparent calf injury in Friday's practice. We haven't seen details on the issue, so we'll need to watch his status throughout the weekend.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) is out for Sunday night’s game vs. the Eagles. Allen Lazard, Christian Watson and Randall Cobb will continue operating as Green Bay’s top 3 WRs.

After 3 weeks short of 100-yard territory, Raiders RB Josh Jacobs returned in Sunday's OT win at Denver. He ran for 109 yards on 24 attempts, adding 51 more yards on 3 receptions. Jacobs claimed all Raiders carries for the game. RB Ameer Abdullah (4) and Brandon Bolden (1) each drew targets, however.

The Ravens managed just 115 yards on 30 rushing attempts in Sunday's win over the Panthers. Kenyan Drake led the RBs with 10 carries for 46 yards, adding 2 catches for 7 yards among 4 targets. Justice Hill rushed 7 times for 30 yards and caught all 3 of his targets for 8 yards. No other RB touched the ball. We'd bet on Gus Edwards (hamstring) being ready for next Sunday's visit to Jacksonville.

Packers WR Romeo Doubs (ankle) is out for Thursday night's game vs. the Titans. He's avoided IR, so we'll see if the rookie can make it back from his high-ankle sprain for Week 12. Allen Lazard and Christian Watson will again operate as Green Bay's top 2 WRs tomorrow.

Packers rookie WR Christian Watson enjoyed a huge Sunday, scoring 3 times in the OT win over Dallas. Watson also led the team in targets (8), receptions (4) and receiving yards (107). The rookie ran just 3 fewer routes than team-leader WR Allen Lazard; 7 more than anyone else on the team. That sets Watson up for a nice role going forward. We'll see if the target share (40% against the Cowboys) stays up.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs put forth a solid fantasy outing in Sunday's loss to the Colts, thanks primarily to his 1st TD in 3 weeks. Jacobs rushed 21 times for 78 yards, including the 1-yard score in the 3rd quarter. He added 6 receptions for 28 yards (among 8 targets) to make it a strong PPR performance. Zamir White drew the only other RB carries, losing a yard on 2 attempts. Amber Abdullah claimed 4 targets, catching all 4 for 33 yards. Next comes a tough Denver defense in Week 11. Jacobs had little trouble in the 1st meeting, though, rushing for 28-144-2 and adding 5 catches for 31 yards.

Packers HC Matt LaFleur told reporters Friday that CB Eric Stokes is "unlikely" to play the rest of the season after suffering ankle and knee injuries in the loss to the Lions. That will leave Green Bay without a starting corner, but the team remains in decent shape at the position. Keisean Nixon looks like the new #3 CB, with Jaire Alexander and Rasul Douglas.

Giants S Xavier McKinney said Tuesday there's "no timeline" on his return from the hand injury suffered over the team's bye, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. McKinney landed on the non-football injury list Monday and had surgery Tuesday on multiple fingers after a Can-Am crash in Mexico. He said his hand "will be fine" but couldn't commit to making it back onto the field before the end of this season. McKinney is droppable in most IDP redraft formats. Dane Belton and Jason Pinnock are the candidates to fill in for him.
