New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) is expected to be available for Wednesday's practice, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. The fifth-year pro has been out since Week 9 as he battles a hamstring injury. While Stevenson returned to practice in a limited capacity to begin his prep ahead of their win against the Jets last Thursday night, he was tagged with a DNP to close out the week. It appears the extra few days of rest were enough to get him back to playing shape at least, although he'll return to a less clear situation in the backfield with TreVeyon Henderson's recent surge of production. For now, the most likely scenario would be that the split becomes more even moving forward, but it was trending that way even before he picked up the toe issue. This backfield is worth keeping tabs on when New England squares off with the hosting Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12.

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble saw little involvement in the passing game but made a game-changing impact on one singular play in the Panthers' hard-fought 30-27 victory over the Falcons. The fifth-year TE only caught one pass in the entire game during overtime for 54 yards that set up the eventual game-winning field goal. The San Francisco 49ers are Carolina's next opponent for Week 12, and they ranked 25th in the league in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to TEs leading up to Week 11. Although San Francisco is a solid matchup for TEs, Tremble has not provided the volume to take advantage of the matchup. He has averaged 2.3 targets per game and was targeted more than four times once this season, in Week 4. Fantasy players should look for other alternatives to stream for their lineups instead of Tremble.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel reports that wide receiver Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) is expected to practice on Wednesday ahead of the team's Week 12 meeting with the hosting Cincinnati Bengals. Boutte has missed nearly three full games after picking up a hamstring injury early on in their win over the Falcons in Week 9. The LSU alum could only practice in a limited fashion in Week 11, so he'll presumably return to a full participant as they gear up for a road clash with the Bengals. When Boutte makes his way back to the field, teammate Mack Hollins' production figures to take a hit. The former will be a solid play against a bottom-ranked Cincinnati pass defense if he's active.

Once again, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jalen Coker did not finish with impressive totals during the Panthers' 30-27 victory in Week 11, even though he did have his best performance yet this season. The second-year WR had four receptions for 52 yards and logged 11.4 Fantasy PPR Points. This was the first time in 2025 that Coker finished with double-digit PPR Fantasy Points, but he still has not been targeted more than four times in a game. Carolina will next face the San Francisco 49ers, who ranked 28th leading up to Week 11 in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to the WR position. Despite the favorable matchup, fantasy players should not pick up Coker for Week 12. He's unlikely to capitalize on the matchup.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) sustained a PCL sprain in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the visiting Carolina Panthers that could force him to miss multiple games. Uh oh. London was excellent again before exiting Week 11's defeat. Although his injury was initially deemed minor, testing revealed a much more significant finding. Per Rapoport, the USC product is "out this week and potentially more." It's a massive hit to Atlanta's passing attack, as London had absorbed a hefty 33.1% target share through ten games. In his absence, fantasy managers can expect teammates Darnell Mooney and David Sills V to operate in two-wide-receiver sets. However, Atlanta's offense is on track to be in flux with the news that quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) may miss the remainder of the season with an injury of his own.

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders delivered another unimpressive performance in Carolina's 30-27 win against the Falcons. He caught all four of his targets for 22 yards and totaled just 6.4 PPR Fantasy Points. This marks the fourth week in a row in which Sanders caught all of his targets, but he has also never been targeted more than five times in a game during that span. The Panthers will next take on the San Francisco 49ers, who ranked 20th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed (15.68) over the last four weeks leading up to Week 11 and allowed 115 receiving yards to Trey McBride on Sunday. Despite the favorable matchup for Week 12, Sanders has not shown enough results throughout the year to be considered a viable streaming or fill-in option.

Rico Dowdle had one of his worst performances on the ground this season in Carolina's 30-27 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The Carolina RB rushed for 45 yards on 19 carries while averaging 2.4 yards per attempt, his lowest since Week 2. In the air, Dowdle did have his best game since Week 6, as he totaled 55 yards on a season-high five receptions. Despite the disappointing rushing numbers, Dowdle totaled at least 15 Fantasy PPR Points for the third straight week. In Week 12, the Carolina Panthers will face the San Francisco 49ers, who ranked 21st in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to RBs in the last four weeks leading up to Week 11. Fantasy players should continue to start Dowdle every week, as he provides a solid statistical floor in any matchup.

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. posted season-bests in Sunday's 16-13 OT loss to the Dolphins in Madrid, and would be an intriguing waiver add if he retained his workload moving forward. The 26-year-old recorded his highest snap share of the season (45%) in Week 11, while carving out 79 yards on his 15 carries. It's modest production, but noteworthy considering he was the clear preferred option on the ground ahead of both Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols for the first time all campaign. The offense's floor has dropped significantly since quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) suffered another injury. That said, a shift in backfield philosophy could put Rodriguez Jr. on the lower end of the fantasy map. The next time he takes the field will be against a staunch Denver Broncos defense in Week 13.

The knee injury that Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) suffered during his team's Week 11 loss to the Carolina Panthers is "potentially season-ending," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Schefter reports that Penix Jr. "will be seeking a second opinion, but it is not encouraging." Knee troubles are particularly worrisome for Penix Jr.'s long-term outlook, as he suffered two ACL tears during his college career. If his 2025 season is indeed over, he will finish the year with 1,982 passing yards, nine touchdowns, and three interceptions across nine games played. Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins took over for Penix Jr. in Week 11 and would likely be Atlanta's starter for the remainder of the 2025 season. Cousins has struggled so far this year, completing 32 of 52 pass attempts for 250 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions across three games (one start). There should be more clarity around the exact nature of Penix Jr.'s injury in the coming days, but fantasy managers should prepare for Cousins to get the start in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints and beyond.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt scored a rushing touchdown for the third consecutive game in his team's 22-19 Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. The 30-year-old finished the game with 13 carries for 59 yards and one score. With Isiah Pacheco (knee) sidelined by a knee injury, Hunt has taken over as Kansas City's lead rusher in the team's last two games. While he's not an explosive player at this point in his career, Hunt has six rushing touchdowns on the season and has proven to be an effective goal-line rusher. Pacheco could return in Week 12 against the Indianapolis Colts, which would cause Hunt to lose a few touches. However, Hunt seems likely to retain his goal-line role even when Pacheco gets back on the field. In leagues where Hunt remains available, he could be worth targeting on the waiver wire as a touchdown-dependent flex option for fantasy managers.

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) has been on Injured Reserve since Week 4 due to a knee injury. However, Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon indicated leading into Week 11 that Benson is a candidate to have his activation window opened in the near future. That could mean Benson has a chance to return for Arizona's Week 12 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, although that's far from a guarantee at this point. With Cardinals running back James Conner (ankle) out for the season, Benson profiles as the team's RB1 upon his return. In leagues where he is available, Benson may be worth targeting on the waiver wire for the stretch run of the fantasy season. If he remains out in Week 12, Arizona will likely continue splitting backfield work between Bam Knight, Emari Demercado, and Michael Carter.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (ankle) was forced to exit early from his team's 34-12 Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to an ankle injury. However, Warren said after the game that he "could have (played), but (not returning) was part of being smart," per Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Warren's status for Week 12 against the Chicago Bears is unclear, but it seems he may have avoided a serious injury. Before leaving the game, Warren recorded 67 scrimmage yards on 12 touches. Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell took advantage of the additional playing time in Warren's absence, hauling in seven receptions for 81 yards and two touchdowns to go along with 24 rushing yards on nine carries. The Steelers' running back situation will be one for fantasy managers to closely monitor this week. If Warren is unable to go, Gainwell could be a must-start fantasy running back in Week 12 against Chicago.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary scored his first two rushing touchdowns of the season in his team's Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers, finishing the game with 16 carries for 44 yards and two scores. With Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) lost for the season with an ankle injury, Singletary has now recorded double-digit touches in three straight games. The 28-year-old appears to be in a timeshare with Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the New York backfield, as Tracy Jr. recorded 23 touches against Green Bay. Tracy Jr.'s presence limits Singletary's upside, particularly as a pass-catcher. However, the veteran Singletary could be the preferred option at the goal line. Heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Detroit Lions, Singletary could be a flex option for fantasy managers to consider off the waiver wire.

The NFL will be reviewing the on-field incident that occurred between Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase and Pittsburgh Steelers safety Jalen Ramsey towards the end of the Week 11 matchup between the two teams, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Ramsey was ejected from the game after throwing a punch at Chase, and after the game, he told reporters that Chase spat on him. There's a video circulating where it certainly looks as though that may have been the case, although it will be up to the NFL to make that final determination. Rapoport mentions that "precedent is there" for a suspension to be levied for spitting on an opponent, referencing the incident from earlier this season where Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Jalen Carter spat on Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. While nothing has been determined yet, fantasy managers should be aware that Chase could be in danger of missing Cincinnati's Week 12 matchup against the New England Patriots.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart (concussion) missed his team's Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers due to a concussion. When asked about Dart's status for practice leading into New York's Week 12 matchup against the Detroit Lions, interim Giants head coach Mike Kafka said Dart remains in the league's concussion protocol. While Dart could clear the protocol in time for Week 12, it does not appear that the team knows exactly what his status will be at this time. With Dart sidelined in Week 11, veteran quarterback Jameis Winston took over under center for the Giants. Winston completed 19 of 29 pass attempts for 201 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception against the Packers. If Winston gets another start against Detroit, he could be a solid starting fantasy QB option in two-quarterback league formats.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson had himself a career day on Sunday, as he set new career-best lines with 15 receptions and 185 receiving yards. The third-year receiver out of Stanford was thrust into duties on Sunday as Marvin Harrison (Appendicitis) and Zay Jones (Achilles) both missed the game. The Cardinals were down early in this contest again, which set up perfectly for Wilson, Jacoby Brissett, and Trey McBride fantasy owners. Brissett threw for 452 yards, and McBride had 115 receiving yards and a touchdown to go along with Wilson's career day. If Harrison continues to miss time and Wilson is thrust into WR1 duties, he is borderline a must-start option in an offense that is racking up a ton of yards over the last three weeks. That being said, the Cardinals face the Jaguars in Week 12, who are stiffer competition than what the Cardinals had in Week 11. Regardless, Wilson is a must-add off the waiver wire right now, and should be comfortably in the WR3 conversation should Harrison miss additional time.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker exploded for 106 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries in the Buccaneers' 44-32 loss against the Buffalo Bills. He also hauled in both of his targets for 34 yards and another score. It was a favorable matchup for Tucker against a Bills run defense that has really struggled in 2025 and has allowed the sixth most points to opposing running backs on the season. Still, Tucker made his presence known and out-carried backfield mate Rachaad White 19 to 10 on the afternoon and had the explosion, which was evident by his 43-yard touchdown run and his 28-yard reception touchdown. Should Bucky Irving (shoulder) continue to miss time, Tucker should be considered a low-end RB2 heading into Week 12 based on his volume, opportunities, and recent outburst. The matchup is tough against the Los Angeles Rams, but they did allow 67 rush yards and a score to Kenneth Walker this past Sunday. White will likely remain involved, but is now considered more of an RB3/desperate flex play.

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson stepped into a lead role in the second half on Sunday in the Packers' 27-20 victory over the New York Giants because Josh Jacobs (knee) was injured and did not return in the second half of the game. Reports have suggested that Jacobs' knee injury is not "season-ending." However, he is expected to get additional testing done on Monday, and it appears likely that Wilson will be in line for RB1 duties in this offense, making him a clear, top-25 running back in fantasy football while Jacobs is out. MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is also injured, and Wilson is a must-add in all formats, and could be a plug-and-play option for your team as an RB2 or flex spot heading into Week 12 against the Minnesota Vikings. Even with Jacobs healthy in 2025, Wilson has 53 rush attempts and 220 rushing yards on the season, and has been playing roughly 24% of the snaps, so he does have some exposure.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) exited during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers with an injury, as the Jaguars went on to dominate the Chargers 35-6. A large part of their dominance was mainly due to the offensive line, Travis Etienne, Tuten, and the Jaguars' defense. At the time of his departure, he was having a career day, rushing for a career high 74 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown on 15 carries. Backfield mate, ETN, also rushed for 73 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries. According to Jamal St. Cyr, Storts Anchor for News4JAX, when asked about his ankle, Tuten said, "It's good," which is a good sign for his availability heading into Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. Tuten was involved fairly early in this contest, and his 15 carries were not due to the game being out of hand. He was clearly splitting touches with ETN early in the game, and it's something to monitor moving forward. Regardless, Tuten becomes a must-add in all formats based on his volume on Sunday, and immediately enters the RB3 conversation, especially if we can expect 8-12 carries from him.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport mentioned on Good Morning Football that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) is dealing with a fracture in his left wrist, but has not been ruled out for Sunday and is pushing to play. Rodgers missed the entire second half of Sunday's game with the injury, and backup quarterback Mason Rudolph played great, completing 12 of 16 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown. If Rodgers were to miss time, Rudolph, who does have 32 career NFL games under his belt, is a solid backup quarterback who can certainly keep the Steelers afloat. Through 11 weeks of the season, Rodgers has thrown for 1,969 yards, 17 touchdowns, and seven interceptions, and has been a fantasy streamer quarterback at best at this point in his career. The Steelers face the Chicago Bears in Week 12, who allow the third most points to the quarterback position in fantasy football, making Rudolph a solid QB2 streamer if Rodgers doesn't go.
