NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's home matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. Worthy picked up an ankle injury mid-week during the team's preparations for a game against the Broncos in Week 11, but carried no designation into the contest. After missing practice on Wednesday, the second-year pro was able to upgrade his status each ensuing day, and appears to be on the right side of questionable heading into a juicy outing against an exploitable Colts' pass defense. As it stands, fantasy managers can expect him to be out there for his usual allotment of snaps. Worthy profiles as a solid WR3 play in a game with a 50.5-point over/under.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the New Orleans Saints expect running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) to be available for Sunday's meeting with the visiting Atlanta Falcons. Kamara has battled an ankle injury for a large portion of the 2025 campaign. Despite being labeled as questionable for the past few games, he's yet to miss one because of it. The 30-year-old put together one of his better performances of the season before New Orleans went on bye in Week 11, eclipsing 100 scrimmage yards for the first time since Week 2, and showed well against a decent Carolina run defense. If, for whatever reason, the veteran is unable to suit up in Week 12, teammates Devin Neal and Audric Estime would man the backfield in his stead.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (glute) is expected to play in Week 12's road matchup with the Tennessee Titans. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news. The Michigan State product was a late addition to Seattle's practice report on Friday, logging a limited session with a glute issue that forced the team to deem him questionable. However, head coach Mike Macdonald has expressed that the move was precautionary, and he should be fine for Sunday. It's excellent news for him, as Walker III is in a smash spot against a Titan's defense that's yielded the seventh-most rushing yards (134.7) and eighth-most fantasy points per game to running backs (24.35). Fantasy managers will still want to remain watchful of the 25-year-old's official game-time status, although he doesn't appear to be in any danger of missing his first appearance this season.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg) is anticipated to have his snap count limited for Sunday's road matchup with the Los Angeles Rams, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Fowler notes that the Pennsylvania native "will likely be on something of a pitch count," as the team manages his reps following a five-game layoff. It makes sense that Tampa Bay would be cautious with the veteran's playing time, considering he's only appeared in two games thus far while working back from ankle and fibula injuries. For this week at least, teammates Tez Johnson and Sterling Shepard will run behind Emeka Egbuka for the majority of snaps. If everything goes to plan, one, if not both, Johnson and Shepard would see a decrease in playing time moving forward as Godwin puts time between him and his injury. He's a shaky play in his first game back.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers expect running back Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) to make his return to the field for next Sunday's home game with the Arizona Cardinals. The second-year pro logged three more limited practices as he returns to health, but was ultimately ruled out a seventh straight time for their clash with the Rams. Per Schefter, Irving "looked strong at practice this week," and might have been able to suit up for Week 12's contest. Alas, Tampa Bay will afford him a few more days to get right as they gear up for a playoff push. Teammates Rachaad White and Sean Tucker are poised for another week splitting backfield work in his stead, though it will be interesting to see whether last week's distribution was fluky or a trend.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin nailed both of his short field goal attempts and two extra points in a Week 11 loss to the Buffalo Bills. McLaughlin has been money again for the Bucs in his third season with the team, making 20 of 24 attempts and 20 of 21 extra points. The 29-year-old has arguably been the best kicker in the league from deep range, making all eight attempts from 50 yards or more and owning the second-longest kick of the season at 65 yards back in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles. McLaughlin ranks as the No. 6 overall kicker in fantasy points scored this season and is a strong option in a dome on Sunday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams. He is RotoBaller's 11th-ranked kicker for Week 12.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little didn't attempt a field goal for the first time this season in last week's 35-6 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but nailed all five extra points. Little has been a solid kicker option this season for fantasy managers, making 16 of 20 attempts and 24 of 25 extra points, ranking as the No. 15 kicker in total fantasy points. His 80% field goal percentage is just below the league average of 84.5%. The 22-year-old has one of the strongest legs in the league, as displayed by his 70-yard kick in the preseason, and he made history in Week 9 against the Raiders with the longest kick of all time at 68 yards. Little is RotoBaller's seventh-ranked kicker for Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals.

From RotoBaller

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey has only attempted three field goals in the past three games, which has limited his scoring for fantasy, but he is still one of the few must-start kicker options every week. Aubrey ranks as the No. 4 overall kicker in points scored this season, making 18 of 19 attempts and 32 of 33 extra points. The 30-year-old made the third-longest kick of the season at 64 yards back in Week 4 and is one of only six kickers in the league to make a kick of 60 yards or more. Aubrey is a must-start option in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles, who he had 11 fantasy points against back in Week 1.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) is trending toward playing on Thanksgiving night against the Baltimore Ravens, per Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Burrow and the Bengals reportedly met every day this week regarding his health and then decided on Friday to wait another week to give Joe Flacco enough practice reps with the starters. The 28-year-old pushed to play and didn't have any setbacks in practice this week, but the team's quick turnaround on Thursday night in Week 13 was a key part of the decision to hold him out. Burrow has been sidelined since Week 2 after undergoing surgery to repair his Grade 3 turf toe and looks set to return for a big divisional matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving night. Flacco will have one more run as the Bengals starter and will rank as a high-end QB2 in a potential shootout against the Patriots on Sunday.

New Orleans Saints WR Brandin Cooks was officially waived Saturday, Nov. 22.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Golden was able to return in Week 11 after missing the previous week due to a shoulder injury, but he had his lowest snap share of the season (34.5%) and caught just one of three targets for 24 yards. The rookie first-rounder hasn't been a priority for head coach Matt LaFleur to get involved, even with the team dealing with multiple significant injuries to pass catchers in Tucker Kraft (knee) and Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot). It's still unclear if Golden will be able to suit up in Week 12, but he'd be a risky start in 12-team leagues because of the lack of consistent usage.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's showdown against the Indianapolis Colts, but is trending in the right direction. Worthy opened the practice week as a DNP on Wednesday, but was upgraded to a full participant on Friday, an encouraging sign for his chances to suit up. It's been an underwhelming second season for the 2024 first-round pick, recording 27 catches for 281 yards and a touchdown on 45 targets in eight games. The 22-year-old unfortunately suffered a dislocated shoulder in the first game of the season, which caused him to miss two games and has likely impacted his performance to an extent. And he's recently been dealing with an ankle injury. Worthy has had back-to-back games with only three catches for a combined 47 yards, but will look to break out in Week 12 against a Colts defense that will likely play a heavy amount of man coverage with Sauce Gardner and Charvarius Ward (concussion) back from injured reserve. Worthy ranks as RotoBaller's WR34 in PPR leagues.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (glute) popped up on the injury report on Friday, but head coach Mike Macdonald described it as precautionary and said that he is "fine to play" Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Walker had one of his best games of the season in Week 11 against the Rams, handling 16 carries for 67 yards and a touchdown to go along with three receptions (three targets) for 44 yards. That marked his most receiving yards in a game this season, and the three targets were his most since Week 1. The 25-year-old also found the end zone for the first time since Week 3 when he scored twice with Zach Charbonnet inactive due to injury. Otherwise, Walker has been vultured time after time down near the goal line this season, but things have shifted more in Walker's favor recently. Macdonald said earlier in the week that Walker will see his opportunities increase moving forward, and he gets a great matchup in Week 12 against a Titans defense that has allowed the fifth most PPR points per game to opposing running backs.

Tetairoa McMillan delivered his best performance of the season in the Panthers' 30-27 triumph over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11. The rookie WR totaled 130 receiving yards on eight receptions and caught two touchdown passes. He finished with 33 PPR fantasy points. In one game, McMillan doubled his TD total for the season. It was the first time this season that McMillan surpassed 30 PPR Fantasy Points, and he placed as the overall fantasy WR2. In Week 12, Carolina will go against the San Francisco 49ers, who rank 28th in the league in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs in 2025. Last week, the 49ers gave up 452 yards, the most of all teams. With a plus matchup lining up for McMillan, he remains a must-start in all formats this week.

From RotoBaller

Last week, Xavier Legette delivered his best fantasy outing since Week 7. The second-year WR caught four passes for 83 yards and a touchdown. He finished with 18.3 PPR fantasy points. It was only the second time in 2025 that Legette registered more than 15 PPR points. However, he also injured his hip during the fourth quarter. He was a full participant in all practices for Week 12 and is not on the injury report for Monday's game against the 49ers. The Niners have surrendered 36.6 Fantasy Points Per Game to opposing WRs this season, which ranks 28th of all teams. Legette has been targeted more than five times just twice since Week 7. Inconsistent volume throughout the year, despite a favorable matchup, makes Legette an unreliable option in deeper fantasy leagues for Week 12.

From RotoBaller

Jalen Coker caught all four of his targets for 52 total yards and finished with 11.2 PPR points in Week 11. It was the first time this season that Coker registered double-digit PPR fantasy points. Carolina is facing the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. They rank 28th in Fantasy Points Per Game Allowed to WRs this year. Although Coker has a great fantasy matchup, he simply doesn't produce enough to take advantage of the draw. He is behind Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette on the depth chart and has yet to be targeted more than four times in a single game. Coker has not caught a TD pass or reached 55 receiving yards in five games played this year.

The Green Bay Packers plan to work out running back Josh Jacobs (knee) during pre-game warmups before deciding if he will suit up against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Jacobs practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's practice, and his status is considered truly up in the air. The 27-year-old's knee is structurally sound, but it is supposedly still tender from last week. Jacobs is pushing to play; however, the Packers will also have a quick turnaround in Week 13 against the Lions on Thanksgiving. His pre-game warmup will be an important one to monitor on Sunday morning for fantasy managers with Jacobs and Emanuel Wilson, who would be a must-start if Jacobs can't go.

From RotoBaller

Ja'Tavion Sanders logged another mediocre fantasy performance in Week 11. The Carolina TE had four receptions for 22 yards and totaled 6.2 PPR points. Week 12 brings a solid fantasy matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who rank 25th in Fantasy Points Per Game Allowed to TEs this year. However, Sanders just doesn't produce enough to take advantage of the matchup. He should not be rostered in most fantasy leagues, even as a backup. In 24 games played over the first two seasons of his NFL career, Sanders has caught one TD pass. That sort of TD total just isn't acceptable for a fantasy TE.

From RotoBaller

Tommy Tremble had little involvement in the passing game in Week 11, but he made a game-changing impact on one singular play. During overtime, Tremble had his only reception for 54 yards. The catch set up the game-winning field goal against the Falcons. Outside of the one big play, Tremble was mainly utilized as a blocker. For the third straight week, Tremble logged the most snaps of any Carolina TE, at 58%. In Week 12, the Panthers will face the San Francisco 49ers, who rank 25th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to TEs this season (15.39). Although this is a favorable matchup for TEs, Tremble has not shown he can take advantage of it. Tremble has been targeted more than twice by Carolina QBs this season. He is off the fantasy radar in most leagues, regardless of scoring format.

Bryce Young is coming off the best performance of his NFL career. In Week 11, Young finished with three passing touchdowns, no interceptions, and set a new Panthers single-game franchise record with 448 passing yards. He was also the fantasy QB2 for the week and earned a season-high 31.8 fantasy points. Carolina faces the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. The Niners' defense continues to be riddled with injuries. San Francisco ranks 24th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs and has surrendered the second-most passing yards (2,817) in the league this season. Last week, Arizona QB Jacoby Brissett completed 47 passes for 452 yards and two TDs against the Niners. Fantasy players looking for a streaming option in deeper leagues should consider Young. He may produce quality fantasy totals for Week 12 even if he doesn't quite approach last week's numbers.
