WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith dominated Eagles receiving in Sunday's narrow win over the Bears. Brown led the team in targets (16), receptions (9) and yards (181). Smith added a 5-126 line on 8 targets. WR Quez Watkins was the only other Eagle to exceed 2 looks, catching 4 of his 6 for a mere 6 yards.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts struggled a little passing in Sunday's win at Chicago. He threw 2 INTs in a game for the 1st time this season and went without a TD pass for the 1st time since Week 5. Hurts made up for that with 3 rushing scores, though, leading the team with 61 yards on 17 carries. He also wound up throwing for 315 yards. He'll continue to lead fantasy football lineups the next 2 weeks through matchups with the Cowboys and Saints.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Bengals. That figures to leave Russell Gage as Tampa’s #3 WR, but he’d be a desperation fantasy play.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) is not expected to play vs. the Bengals later today, although a final decision might not come until pregame warmups, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jones obviously shouldn't be in fantasy lineups. Jones' absence figures to leave Russell Gage as Tampa’s #3 WR, but he’d be a desperation fantasy play.

Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (shoulder) was not activated on Saturday afternoon and won't play vs. the Bears tomorrow. He returned to practice this week and should tentatively be expected to return for Week 16. WRs A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith should continue to dominate targets against Chicago.

The Steelers downgraded QB Kenny Pickett (concussed) to out for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers and announced that QB Mitchell Trubisky will. Trubisky is a bottom-barrel QB2 but might be good news for WR Diontae Johnson, who drew a 27% target share from Trubisky last week and a 32% share with Trubisky over the first 3 weeks of the season.

Bucs WR Julio Jones (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Bengals. He only got in a limited practice on Friday. Clearly not at 100%, Jones shouldn’t be in your Week 15 fantasy plans.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He was limited in practice this week, but the team evidently doesn't expect him to be cleared by Sunday. QBs Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph reportedly split reps in practice this week, and HC Mike Tomlin declined to name a starter on Friday. You, of course, shouldn't be messing with the situation in Week 15 fantasy lineups.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley said Thursday that he feels "a lot better" now than he did this time last week and doesn't expect to be limited vs. the Commanders on Sunday night. Barkley is off this week's injury report after being listed as questionable with that neck issue last week. The matchup is tough this week, but Barkley's projected volume should land him in most fantasy lineups. He posted an 18-63-1 rushing line and 5-18 receiving against Washington back in Week 13.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We'll get another update on his progress on Friday afternoon.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley isn't listed on the Week 15 injury report. He was limited last week and listed as questionable with a sore neck -- and then set season lows with a 31% snap rate and 11 touches in the loss to the Eagles. Barkley had slowed down even before the neck injury and gets a tough Washington defense on Sunday night. But we can at least project him to get back to a full workload.

Patriots WR DeVante Parker (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He's unlikely to play vs. the Raiders this weekend after being concussed on Monday night.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. QBs Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph reportedly split reps in Wednesday's practice, so it's unclear who will start this weekend if Pickett can't.

"Expectations" are that Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (shoulder) will return for Sunday's game vs. the Bears, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane. "And if not, almost certainly Christmas Eve at the Cowboys," McLane adds. So it sounds like Goedert isn't quite a lock to make it back for Week 15 fantasy lineups. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week.

Patriots WR DeVante Parker left in the 1st quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Cardinals for a concussion check. He appeared woozy on the field, so we doubt he's cleared to return to this one.

Update: Parker has been ruled out with a head injury.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley avoided a setback with his neck injury in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. "Came out of the game pretty well [physically]," Barkley said afterward. He also revealed that the injury is a stinger and happened in practice last week. Barkley was clearly limited in the Philly game, finishing with just 9 carries and 2 targets on a season-low 31% snap rate. HC Brian Daboll said Monday that the team is "hopeful" Barkley will be in better shape this week. We'll keep a close eye on his practice participation leading up to Sunday's huge game vs. the Commanders.

The Giants gave RB Saquon Barkley just 9 carries and 2 targets in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He trailed both RB Gary Brightwell and RB Matt Breida by 2 snaps, in a game Barkley entered as a game-time decision because of a neck issue. We'll see about Barkley's status heading into a Week 15 visit to Washington.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith led the team in targets (8) and receptions (5) in Sunday's win over the Giants. He generated 64 yards and a TD, scoring from 41 yards out on a 4th-down play in the 1st half. WR A.J. Brown trailed him with a 4-70-1 line on 6 looks, staging QB Jalen Hurts' only other scoring throw. Philly gets a high-ceiling matchup with a bad Bears defense in Week 15.

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw for 217 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win over the Giants, adding 77 yards and another score on the ground. Hurts generated most of his passing production in the 1st half, attempting just 7 throws after the break. It was Hurts' 2nd straight game with 3+ TDs and 3rd such game among the past 5.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett exited in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens to be checked for a concussion. QB Mitchell Trubisky replaced him. We'll update Pickett's status when we know more.

Update: Pickett has been ruled out. This is his 2nd concussion of the season.
