| 1. | Raiders | Three limited Monday |
(KFFL) Bill Nichols, of The Dallas Morning News, reports Oakland Raiders DE Greg Ellis (knee), DE Richard Seymour (back) and WR Javon Walker (hamstring) were limited in practice Monday, Nov. 23, according to the Raiders' injury report. | 3 hours |
|
| 2. | Desmond Clark |
(RotoWire) Head coach Lovie Smith said that Clark should be recovered enough from his neck injury to return for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Breaking Sports News reports. Analysis: Clark missed Sunday's game against the Eagles with the injury, but appears set to return as the team's No. 2 tight end for next week's game. | 9 hours |
| 3. | Carson Palmer |
(RotoWire) Palmer was 14-for-22 for 207 yards and no touchdowns and one Hail Mary interception in Sunday's loss to the Raiders. Analysis: Palmer made up for it by running for two touchdowns, but he wasn't able to get much going in the second half, thanks to the Raiders' pass rush. | 9 hours |
| 4. | Vikings | Favre for MVP? |
(KFFL) CBSSports.com reports Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre is No. 1 in the NFL in passer rating (112.1), No. 1 in fewest interceptions thrown (three), No. 2 in completion percentage (69.7) and No. 2 in touchdown passes (21). | 13 hours |
| 5. | Marion Barber |
(RotoWire) Barber had arguably his best game since Week 2 on Sunday, rushing 20 times for 99 yards. Analysis: He didn't get into the end zone, but he at least looked like his old bruising self again. With six games left on the schedule, Barber still has a chance to salvage his season. | 13 hours |
| 6. | Robbie Gould |
(RotoWire) Gould connected on 4-of-5 field goal attempts in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. Analysis: Gould's only miss was a blocked 48-yard attempt early in the fourth quarter. Gould has now made 16-of-19 field goal attempts on the season. | 14 hours |
| 7. | Williams laughs off 'knee injury' |
(Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams laughed off questions about his knee and was apparently unaware he was even on the injury report last week. Analysis: Williams' knee is not an issue. Even coach John Fox admitted that no one was buying the claim that his No. 1 running back was ever questionable for last week. Williams is a fine RB1 even in a tough matchup with the Jets this week. | 14 hours |
| 8. | Palmer runs two TDs in Week 11 |
(TheHuddle) 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. Analysis: Ironic that the Throwin' Samoan was the last Cincy quarterback with two rushing scores. As for Palmer, his low-key passing numbers against a tough Oakland secondary were to be expected, so it's quite likely those two rushing touchdowns came with Palmer on more than... (More) | 14 hours |
| 9. | Maroney scores twice Week 11 |
(TheHuddle) The Associated Press reports New England Patriots RB Laurence Maroney had 22 carries for 77 yards with two rushing touchdowns Week 11. Analysis: Maroney wasn't overly effective, but he did give New England the semblance of a ground game. He very nearly didn't get the second touchdown, as Tom Brady tried to quarterback sneak from the one--twice--before giving Maroney a shot at a second score. | 14 hours |
| 10. | Cardinals | Fitzgerald moves up franchise receptions list |
(KFFL) Kent Somers, of The Arizona Republic, reports Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald passed former WR Frank Sanders to move into fourth place on the team's career receptions list. Fitzgerald currently has 497 career receptions. | 1 day |
| 11. | Brett Favre |
(RotoWire) Favre (hip) was 22-of-25 passing for 213 yards and four touchdowns Sunday in a dominating performance against the Seahawks. Analysis: The 88 percent completion mark is a career high and a Vikings franchise record. Favre threw touchdown passes to four receivers in the blowout. By the fourth quarter he was resting on the bench. | 1 day |
| 12. | Vernon Davis |
(RotoWire) Davis caught a team-high six receptions for 108 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss against the Packers. Analysis: Davis bounced back in a big way after a disappointing Week 10 performance (three catches, 16 yards, no touchdowns) against the Bears. He will continue to be Alex Smith's favorite target moving forward and an elite tight end option. | 1 day |
| 13. | Laurence Maroney |
(RotoWire) Maroney carried 22 times for 77 yards with two touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Jets. Analysis: Sammy Morris could be back by next Monday, but Maroney's hard running against the Jets could keep him at the head of the Pats' RB committee even when reinforcements come in. | 1 day |
| 14. | Patriots | Maroney scores twice Week 11 |
(KFFL) The Associated Press reports New England Patriots RB Laurence Maroney had 22 carries for 77 yards with two rushing touchdowns Week 11. | 1 day |
| 15. | Favre has career day |
(FFChamps) Minnesota Vikings' quarterback Brett Favre completed 22-of-25 passes today, throwing for 213 yards and four touchdowns in a 35-9 route of the Seattle Seahawks. His 88% completion percentage represents the best single game percentage in the 40 year-old's career. Favre was replaced late in the third quarter by Tarvaris Jackson, when the game was well in hand. Analysis: Saying that Favre had a career day in any way is really saying something. Before the season started, and despite his Hall Of Fame credentials, No. 4 had become the butt of jokes for fans around the country. Not so much anymore. Favre has... (More) | 1 day |
| 16. | 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. | 1 day |
| 17. | Cotchery picks up a TD |
(Rotoworld) Jerricho Cotchery caught three passes for 84 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Analysis: Cotchery's touchdown came on a pretty vertical route in which he beat Jonathan Wilhite. He also returned two punts for 25 yards and avoided any big hits. Cotchery seems to have better chemistry with Mark Sanchez than Braylon Edwards does right now and is a decent WR2 against the Panthers next week. | 1 day |
| 18. | Warner leaves with head injury |
(FFChamps) Arizona Cardinals' quarterback Kurt Warner left today's game against the St. Louis Rams after taking a blow to the head in the second quarter. Before exiting, Warner completed 15-of-19 passes, for 203 yards and two scores. He did not return in the second half, and Matt Leinart finished 10-of-14 for 74 yards in mop-up duty in a 21-13 Cardinals victory. Analysis: The extent of Warner's injury is unknown at this point, but at the ripe ol' age of 38, Kurt's fantasy owners have to be holding their breath a little bit today. If you are a Warner ... (More) | 1 day |
| 19. | 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. | 1 day |
| 20. | Maroney adds two more touchdowns |
(Rotoworld) Laurence Maroney rushed 22 times for 77 yards with two touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Jets. Analysis: Maroney continues to be the man at the goal line. He easily converted both his chances and now has six touchdowns in his last five games. It's a little scary that Sammy Morris (knee) is almost ready to return, but Maroney is really hitting the hole well. Check Morris' status later this week ahead of the Pats' showdown with the Saints. | 1 day |
| 21. | Larry Fitz scores yet again |
(Rotoworld) Larry Fitzgerald caught eight balls for 87 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' Week 11 win. Analysis: Fitz paced Arizona with 12 targets. He has scored four touchdowns in his last three games and will again be a good bet for a TD in Week 12 at Tennessee. | 1 day |
| 22. | Larry Fitzgerald |
(RotoWire) Fitzgerald caught eight passes for 87 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win at St. Louis. Analysis: He leads the NFL with nine receiving touchdowns and he ranks fourth with 71 receptions. Yes, Fitzgerald's YPC is down a bit and yes, he only has two 100-yard games this season, but he's still having a monster season. | 1 day |
| 23. | TE Clark among Bears' SNF inactives |
(Rotoworld) Bears declared TE Desmond Clark, S Kevin Payne, WR Juaquin Iglesias, CB D.J. Moore, G Lance Louis, DT Matt Toeaina, DT Jarron Gilbert and Pisa Tinoisamoa inactive for Week 11. Analysis: Clark was limited in practice all week with a neck injury. His absence should open targets for fellow Chicago tight end Greg Olsen. | 1 day |
| 24. | Desmond Clark |
(RotoWire) Clark (neck) is inactive for Sunday night's game against Philadelphia. Analysis: Greg Olsen is the Chicago TE you want to own anyway, with Clark having racked up just 11 catches in seven games to date. | 1 day |
| 25. | Bears inactives for Week 11 |
(FFChamps) The Chicago Bears have announced the following players as inactive for today's game against the Philadelphia Eagles: LB Pisa Tinosamoa, WR Juaquin Iglesias, DT Jarron Gilbert, DT Matt Toeaina, TE Desmond Clark, CB D.J. Moore, FS Kevin Payne, and G Lance Louis. Analysis: With Clark inactive, Greg Olsen should get all of the tight end looks from Jay Cutler. In the last two games, Olsen is averaging six catches and 73 yards receiving. | 1 day |
| 26. | 49ers | Davis catches touchdown Week 11 |
(KFFL) The Associated Press reports San Francisco 49ers TE Vernon Davis caught six passes for 108 yards and one touchdown in Week 11. | 1 day |
| 27. | Crayton catches game-winner |
(Rotoworld) Patrick Crayton caught one pass for 10 yards and the game-winning touchdown in Sunday's win over the Redskins. Analysis: Crayton's touchdown came when Tony Romo bought all kinds of time with his legs in the red zone. He's still the No. 4 option at best in this passing game and is probably best left on the waiver wire. | 1 day |
| 28. | Vernon Davis has monster game |
(Rotoworld) Vernon Davis caught six balls for 108 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' Week 12 loss to Green Bay. Analysis: Davis, who leads all NFL tight ends with eight touchdown receptions, now has 100-yard games in two of his last three. Alex Smith loves this guy. Davis easily paced the Niners in targets (12; next closest had six) and went over the top of Clay Matthews for his 24-yard touchdown in the third quarter. V.D. plays in the slot when the 49ers use their spread offense. This is a recipe for continued elite production from a tight end. | 1 day |
| 29. | 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. | 1 day |
| 30. | Vikings | Favre sets career-high Week 11 |
(KFFL) The Associated Press reports Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre went 22-for-25 for 213 yards and four touchdowns in Week 11. His 88 percent completion percentage was a career high. | 1 day |
| 31. | Winslow catches five for 29 |
(Rotoworld) Kellen Winslow caught five balls for 29 yards in Week 11. Analysis: The final numbers are uninspiring, but Winslow's team-high target total (13) was. Josh Freeman had his first truly bad NFL performance, limiting all of his pass catchers' stats. Keep Winslow going at Atlanta in Week 12. | 1 day |
| 32. | Raiders inactives for Week 11 |
(FFChamps) The Oakland Raiders have announced the following players as inactive for today's game against the Cincinnati Bengals: OLB Jon Alston, WR Nick Miller, QB Charlie Frye, WR Todd Watkins, T Erik Pears, T Khalif Barnes, DT William Joseph and WR Javon Walker. Analysis: There are no surprises on the Raiders inactive list; all of their key skill players are active for today's game against the Bengals. However, they will be without starting outside linebacker Jon Alston. | 1 day |
| 33. | Favre throws for 4 TDs, takes 4th quarte... |
(Rotoworld) Brett Favre completed 22-of-25 passes for 213 yards and four touchdowns against the Seahawks before giving way to Tarvaris Jackson late in the third quarter. Analysis: Minnesota was up 28-3 at the time and the Vikings have talked about wanting to rest Favre some down the stretch, so Jackson gets a full quarter of work. Prior to leaving Favre set an NFL record with his 22nd career four-touchdown game, hitting four different receivers for scores. Favre, who turned 40 years old earlier this month, now has a 21/3 TD/INT ratio and soon-to-be 9-1 record. | 1 day |
| 34. | Patriots inactives for Week 11 |
(FFChamps) The New England Patriots have announced the following players as inactive for today's game against the New York Jets: RB Sammy Morris, RB Fred Taylor, T Matt Light, DE Jarvis Green, WR Sam Aiken, DE Rob Ninkovich, CB Shawn Springs, and G Stephen Neal. Analysis: Morris and Taylor continue to be sidelined, so Laurence Maroney and Kevin Faulk will split carries in the Patriots backfield against the Jets. Sam Aiken is also inactive, so look for more targets for Julian Edelman for To... (More) | 1 day |
| 35. | Breaston limited Friday, should play Sunday |
(FFChamps) Arizona Cardinals' wide receiver Steve Breaston (knee) was limited in Friday's practice, but is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Rams. Analysis: Breaston should play, and the Cardinals will throw. The Rams' secondary gets torched on a regular basis, and this weekend should be no different. Breaston is a top-15 play at wideout this Sunday, and owners should insert him into their Week 11 starting lineups in all formats. | 3 days |
| 36. | Morris questionable |
(FFChamps) Speaking to reporters from the Boston Globe today, New England Patriots' running back Sammy Morris said he felt "Sore, but good" and that he was taking his knee injury "day by day." Morris is listed as questionable to face the Jets this Sunday, and has not played since injuring the knee in Week 6. Analysis: The Patriots' are almost comically evasive about disclosing their players' injuries and status for upcoming games. Add in coach Bill Belichick's propensity to shuffle his backs around as the game dictates, and predicting which running back will reap the rewards of The Hoodie's ... (More) | 3 days |
| 37. | 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 ... (More) | 3 days |
| 38. | Berrian limited again |
(FFChamps) Minnesota Vikings' wide receiver Bernard Berrian (hamstring) was limited in practice again on Friday, and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Analysis: Sidney Rice and Percy Harvin are both better targets at this point, and Visanthe Shiancoe is the preferred red-zone target for Old Man Favre. Hamstrings have a tendency to linger and limit a player's burst off the line, and both have been true for Berrian. However, all that said, Berrian still has fantasy value, and if healthy, could make for a decent N... (More) | 3 days |
| 39. | Sammy Morris feels 'good' for Sunday |
(FFToolbox) The New England Patriots' backfield is about to get a little more muddled. With injuries sidelining Sammy Morris and Fred Taylor for the past month, it was clear that Laurence Maroney was the team's No. 1 back, with Kevin Faulk pitching in. Last week, Maroney fumbled near the goal line against the Colts and that led to more carries for Faulk. Now it looks as if Morris is ready to return from his Oct. 18 knee injury. Morris participated in a full week of practices for the first... (More) | 3 days |
| 40. | 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) | 3 days |
| 41. | Raiders | Three miss practice Friday, out for Week 11 |
(KFFL) Oakland Raiders WR Nick Miller (tibia), WR Javon Walker (hamstring) and LB Ricky Brown (ankle) missed the team's practice Friday, Nov. 20, and are out for Week 11. | 3 days |
| 42. | 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. | 3 days |
| 43. | Javon Walker |
(RotoWire) Walker (hamstring) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Bengals. Analysis: His lost season continues. We'll check back on his status next week, but most people have already changed the channel on Walker. | 3 days |
| 44. | Buccaneers | Winslow to play Week 11 |
(KFFL) Updating a previous report, Roy Cummings, of The Tampa Tribune, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Kellen Winslow (knee) will be able to play in Week 11. | 3 days |
| 45. | Bears | Clark, Payne doubtful for Week 11 |
(KFFL) Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck) and SS Kevin Payne (back) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 20. They are listed as doubtful for Week 11 and will not play. | 3 days |
| 46. | 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. | 3 days |
| 47. | Vikings | Favre probable for Week 11 |
(KFFL) Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre (hip, groin) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as probable for Week 11 and is expected to play. | 3 days |
| 48. | Desmond Clark |
(RotoWire) Clark (neck) did not practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Sunday night's game against Philadelphia, the Bears' official site reports. Analysis: Greg Olsen, who was already getting most of the tight end targets, should be used even more heavily as a result. | 3 days |
| 49. | Favre listed as probable |
(Rotoworld) Brett Favre (hip) is listed as probable for Week 11. Analysis: Favre is a top-ten fantasy option Sunday versus Seattle. | 3 days |
| 50. | Brett Favre |
(RotoWire) Favre (groin/hip) is listed as probable against Seattle. Analysis: He was able to practice all week, so this really shouldn't be a concern. | 3 days |
| 51. | Kellen Winslow |
(RotoWire) Winslow (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Saints, the Saint Petersburg Times reports. Analysis: Winslow, who matched his season-high with 102 receiving yards against Miami in Week 10, is safe to roll with again Sunday versus the Saints. | 3 days |
| 52. | Winslow all systems go |
(Rotoworld) Kellen Winslow (probable, knee) fully participated in Friday's practice. Analysis: Winslow is all systems go for a Week 11 matchup that could turn into a pass-heavy affair against New Orleans. He's a high-quality TE1 play this week. | 3 days |
| 53. | Buccaneers | Winslow probable for Week 11 |
(KFFL) Charlie Campbell and Jim Flynn, of PewterReport.com, report Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Kellen Winslow (knee) participated in practice Friday, Nov. 20. He is listed as probable for Week 11. | 3 days |
| 54. | Jets | Cotchery could return kicks Week 11 |
(KFFL) Tara Sullivan, of The Bergen Record, reports New York Jets special teams coach Mike Westhoff said WR Jerricho Cotchery has emerged as a leading candidate to return kickoffs if FS Jim Leonhard (thumb) is not able to play. | 3 days |
| 55. | Javon Walker |
(RotoWire) Walker (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday, the Oakland Tribune reports. Analysis: Walker probably will not be available for Sunday's game against the Bengals. | 3 days |
| 56. | DeAngelo Williams |
(RotoWire) Williams (knee) rushed for 122 yards on 13 carries and picked up a two-point conversion in Thursday's loss to Miami. Analysis: The Panthers only handed the ball off 25 times, but Williams essentially shared the carries with Jonathan Stewart (12 carries, 43 yards). With extra rest, both backs should be able to rest their nagging injuries, perhaps returning the Carolina backfield to its regular 60-40 workload split favoring Williams in Week 12. | 3 days |
| 57. | 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. | 4 days |
| 58. | D-Will rushes for 122 yards in Week 11 |
(Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams rushed 13 times for 122 yards and added one reception for nine yards against the Dolphins in Week 11. Analysis: Averaging close to 10 yards a pop, an explosive Williams couldn't be stopped by a previous stout Dolphins run defense. Had the coaches not been trying to build confidence in Jake Delhomme, Williams could have threatened 200 yards. Having learned a valuable lesson, the Panthers will look to get the ball back in Williams' hands next week against the Jets. With six straight games over 100 total yards, he remains a must-start RB1. | 4 days |
| 59. | Raiders | Three miss practice Thursday |
(KFFL) Oakland Raiders WR Nick Miller (tibia), WR Javon Walker (hamstring) and LB Ricky Brown (ankle) missed the team's practice Thursday, Nov. 19, and will not be active for Week 11. | 4 days |
| 60. | Cotchery to return punts in Week 11 |
(Rotoworld) Jerricho Cotchery will return punts for the Jets against the Patriots this week. Analysis: Safety Jim Leonhard, the normal punt returner, is expected to miss the game following thumb surgery. Cotchery hasn't returned punts since 2005 and is unlikely to a significant value increase in return yardage leagues this week. | 4 days |
| 61. | Cowboys | Barber practices in full Thursday |
(KFFL) Dallas Cowboys RB Marion Barber III (thumb) practiced in full Thursday, Nov. 19. | 4 days |
| 62. | 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. | 4 days |
| 63. | 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. | 4 days |
| 64. | Brett Favre |
(RotoWire) Favre (hip/groin) was limited in practice on Thursday, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Analysis: It was the second consecutive day he's been limited in practice, but this shouldn't be a worry since he showed no signs of trouble with the injury in Sunday's win over Detroit. | 4 days |
| 65. | Vikings | Favre limited Thursday |
(KFFL) Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre (hip. groin) was limited during practice Thursday, Nov. 19. | 4 days |
| 66. | Vikings | Favre limited Thursday |
(KFFL) Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre (hip, groin) participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 19. He will be able to play in Week 11. | 4 days |
| 67. | Bears | Clark, Payne miss practice Thursday |
(KFFL) Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck) and SS Kevin Payne (back) did not participate in practice Thursday, Nov. 19. They are considered questionable for Week 11. | 4 days |
| 68. | Kellen Winslow |
(RotoWire) Winslow (knee) returned to full participation at practice Thursday after being limited Wednesday, the St. Petersburg Times reports. Analysis: It looks like Winslow, who has 42 catches for 454 yards and five TDs through nine games, will be fine for Sunday's game against the Saints. | 4 days |
| 69. | Favre limited again in Thursday's practi... |
(Rotoworld) Brett Favre (hip, groin) was limited again in Thursday's practice. Analysis: Favre has been limited in practices for the past couple of weeks, but he's certain to start as a high-end QB1 against the Seahawks this week. | 4 days |
| 70. | Desmond Clark |
(RotoWire) Clark (neck) missed Thursday's practice, Chicago Breaking Sports News reports. Analysis: Clark, who aggravated his neck injury during last Thursday's game against the 49ers, has yet to practice this week. | 4 days |
| 71. | DeAngelo Williams |
(RotoWire) Williams (knee) is expected to play Thursday against Miami, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Analysis: We expected this outcome even after Williams missed Wednesday's practice, so this shouldn't come as a surprise if you've been following Williams' player notes. Check back about an hour before kickoff for final confirmation, but both Williams and backfield mate Jonathan Stewart are expected to play against the Dolphins. | 4 days |
| 72. | 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 questionab... (More) | 4 days |
| 73. | 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. | 4 days |
| 74. | Winslow upgraded to full participation |
(Rotoworld) Kellen Winslow (knee) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice. Analysis: Winslow is healthy and will start against the Saints this week. With Antonio Bryant likely returning to the lineup, he'll have competition as Josh Freeman's go-to target. | 4 days |
| 75. | Buccaneers | Winslow practices in full Thursday |
(KFFL) Jim Flynn, of PewterReport.com, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Kellen Winslow (knee) practiced in full Thursday, Nov. 19. | 4 days |
| 76. | Desmond Clark misses practice |
(Rotoworld) Bears TE Desmond Clark missed Thursday's practice with a neck injury. Analysis: Clark suffered the injury in last week's game against the 49ers. Kellen Davis will play in two-tight ends sets if Clark can't go this week. | 4 days |
| 77. | Williams will play Thursday |
(Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams (knee, questionable) is expected to play Thursday night, confirms ESPN's Adam Schefter. Analysis: Coach John Fox already acknowledged that Williams sat out practice on Wednesday just to rest. He's a full go and is a RB1 even against the solid Dolphins' run defense. | 4 days |
| 78. | Seahawks cornerbacks have concussions |
(FFChamps) Seahawks starting cornerbacks Marcus Trufant and Josh Wilson were held out of practice Wednesday after being diagnosed with concussions. Coach Jim Mora did not comment on either cornerback's status for Sunday's game against the Vikings. "We'll have a couple guys that might be limited (in practice), but nothing serious," Mora told the Seattle Post-Intelligence. Analysis: There's been a lot of concussions going around the league lately and as seen with Brian Westbrook last week, the important thing to be concerned with is coming ba... (More) | 5 days |
| 79. | 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 hug...

| 81. | Bears | Three miss practice Wednesday |
(KFFL) Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck), C Olin Kreutz (back) and S Kevin Payne (back) missed the team's practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 5 days |
| 82. | Buccaneers | Winslow limited Wednesday |
(KFFL) Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Kellen Winslow (knee) was limited during the team's practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 5 days |
| 83. | Javon Walker |
(RotoWire) Walker (strained hamstring) did not practice Wednesday. Analysis: Walker doesn't look any closer to getting his first catch of the season than he did last week. | 5 days |
| 84. | Winslow misses practice |
(Rotoworld) Kellen Winslow (knee) was limited in Bucs practice Wednesday. Analysis: Winslow probably just got a late-season workday off. He is coming off a seven-catch, 102-yard thrashing of the Dolphins and should play in Week 11. | 5 days |
| 85. | 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. | 5 days |
| 86. | Brett Favre |
(RotoWire) Favre (hip/groin) was limited in practice on Wednesday, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Analysis: He showed no signs that this injury was a problem last week despite being listed on the injury report, so we wouldn't be worried this week against Seattle. | 5 days |
| 87. | 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. | 5 days |

| 89. | Brett Favre limited in practice |

| 90. | Kellen Winslow |
(RotoWire) Winslow (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday, the St. Petersburg Times reports. Analysis: More on Winslow in the coming days, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that his Week 11 availability is in any doubt. | 5 days |
| 91. | Panthers | Williams questionable for Week 11 |
(KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers RB DeAngelo Williams (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. He is listed as questionable for Week 11. | 5 days |
| 92. | Desmond Clark |
(RotoWire) Clark (neck) did not practice Wednesday, the Chicago Sun-Times' Brad Biggs reports. Analysis: Clark aggravated his neck injury in the first half of Thursday's loss to the 49ers. His status for Sunday night's game against the Eagles is unknown, but there are probably better options available than Clark (11 receptions, 91 yards) anyway. | 5 days |
| 93. | DeAngelo Williams |
(RotoWire) Williams (knee) was held out of Wednesday's practice and is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Darin Gantt of the Rock Hill Herald reports. Analysis: A couple of things to consider. First, the Panthers have been very liberal with the questionable tag this season. Second, Williams wasn't mentioned as a non-participant in practice earlier in the week. Third, Williams played in Week 10 after carrying a questionable tag and missing practice on Friday. We think he'll be able to play on Thursday night, but you'll want to check back about an hour before kickoff just to be certain. | 5 days |
| 94. | DeAngelo Williams rests on Wednesday |
(Rotoworld) Panthers coach John Fox acknowledged Wednesday that DeAngelo Williams (knee, questionable) sat out practice only to "rest." Analysis: Williams hasn't been limping and is playing well despite the alleged injury. Safely consider him a lock to lead Carolina in touches on Thursday night. | 5 days |
| 95. | Favre welcome to return in 2010 |
(TheHuddle) Judd Zulgad, of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, reports Minnesota Vikings owner and president Mark Wilf said the team received the boost it was looking for when it signed QB Brett Favre. Wilf made it clear Favre would be welcome to return in 2010 to play the second season of his two-year contract. Analysis: So, will he retire? Or will he come back? C'mon, it's not too early to start everybody's favorite offseason game! | 5 days |
| 96. | 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. | 5 days |
| 97. | Vikings | Favre welcome to return in 2010 |
(KFFL) Judd Zulgad, of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, reports Minnesota Vikings owner and president Mark Wilf said the team received the boost it was looking for when it signed QB Brett Favre.

Favre is due a $13 million salary in 2010 after collecting $12 million this year. | 6 days |
| 99. | Vernon Davis to make Pro Bowl? |
(Rotoworld) Five GMs and/or scouts tell Yahoo Sports that they believe Vernon Davis deserves "real consideration" to make the Pro Bowl this year. Analysis: "Davis has been special this season," said one. "Always a good blocker, but now he's a real threat in the passing game. He finally seems to know what he's doing." Davis is also the No. 2 overall tight end in fantasy football. | 6 days |
| 100. | Still have confidence in Maroney |
(TheHuddle) The Boston Herald reports the New England Patriots still have confidence in RB Laurence Maroney after his costly fumble in the red zone against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10. 'Offensively and from a coaching standpoint, we have a lot of confidence in Laurence and his ability and I'm sure he's anxious to bounce back this week. The next opportunity that arises, he'll look to step up to the challenge,' director of player personnel Nick Caserio said. Analysis: Maroney will probably still get his normal amount of carries this week, even though Sammy Morris is expected to return Week 11 against the J... (More) | 6 days |
