Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) is back at the team's practice on Thursday, as expected, according to Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun. Jackson missed a few games early this year with a hamstring injury, and he's been listed on the injury report for several weeks with various lower-body injuries. The 28-year-old has played through an ankle issue of late and should do so again this weekend in another crucial divisional matchup against the hosting Cincinnati Bengals. The 28-year-old two-time MVP hasn't looked quite like himself in 2025, and he probably hasn't been 100% healthy. The good news is that Jackson had seven carries for 43 yards and his second rushing touchdown of the year in last week's loss to the Steelers. Although Jackson didn't throw a touchdown pass two weeks ago in the loss to Cincy, he did throw for 246 yards. Fantasy managers need to stick with him in Week 15 as a midrange QB1 in a good matchup.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) is missing another day of practice this week on Thursday, according to Tyler Drake of Arizona Sports. Harrison will need to return to practice on Friday to avoid missing a second straight game with a heel injury that he suffered in Week 13. Before that, the 23-year-old missed two games following an appendectomy. He's very much in danger of missing a fourth game in the last five weeks. It's been that kind of disappointing year for the former first-rounder. Harrison has a 40-594-4 line on 69 targets in his second year in the NFL. If Harrison misses another contest, receiver Michael Wilson will be a must-start as a target hog, while tight end Trey McBride will also continue to have a crazy-high floor in fantasy. In the three games that Harrison has missed, Wilson has a ridiculous 36 receptions on 49 targets for 445 yards and two touchdowns.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (concussion, ribs) is missing a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Tillman is in the league's concussion protocol and is also dealing with a rib injury, making it unlikely that he'll be able to play this weekend on the road in Chicago against the Bears. The 25-year-old sustained both injuries in the Week 14 loss to the Tennessee Titans, when he caught just one of three targets for 23 yards. Tillman hasn't made much noise in 2025 and has dealt with injuries that have limited him to nine games. The former third-rounder hasn't had more than three catches in a game since Week 1, and he hasn't had more than one reception since Nov. 16. Overall, he has an 18-197-2 line and is not worth rostering right now in 12-team fantasy leagues. Rookie Isaiah Bond could see more looks deep down the field in Chicago if Tillman is ruled out.

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) missed a second straight practice this week on Thursday due to a knee injury, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Njoku was also on last week's injury report with a knee injury, but he was active in Sunday's loss to the Tennessee Titans. The 29-year-old aggravated his knee injury on a touchdown grab versus the Titans, and now he's on the wrong side of questionable to play in Week 15 against the hosting Chicago Bears. He will need to return to practice on Friday to have a chance of playing this weekend. Njoku has taken a back seat to impressive rookie TE Harold Fannin Jr. this year, making him a weekly TE2 streaming option in fantasy. He has caught 33 passes on 48 targets for 293 yards and four touchdowns through 14 weeks. Fannin will be an even more attractive TE1 if Njoku is ruled out against Chicago.

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Dylan Sampson (calf, hand) is missing from practice on Thursday for a second straight day this week, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. The Browns placed RB Jerome Ford (shoulder) on season-ending Injured Reserve this week, so Cleveland's backfield could be thin behind rookie starter Quinshon Judkins on Sunday against the Chicago Bears if Sampson is unable to play. Raheim Sanders and Trayveon Williams would likely split backup duties behind Judkins if Sampson cannot go. Sampson, a fourth-round pick out of Tennessee, had five catches on six targets for a season-high 64 receiving yards in Sunday's loss to the Tennessee Titans, and he will have a bigger role in the Browns' backfield the rest of the year if he's healthy. He's worth stashing in PPR leagues despite his status being up in the air for Week 15.

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb (ribs) is missing another day of practice on Thursday due to a rib injury, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Rookie RB Woody Marks (ankle) also missed practice on Wednesday, but he has returned to the field on Thursday. The 29-year-old Chubb is in real danger of missing the Week 15 contest on Sunday against the visiting Arizona Cardinals. He has already lost lead-back duties to Marks, with Chubb not seeing double-digit carries in a game since back on Nov. 2 against the Denver Broncos. With Chubb getting injured in the Sunday night win over the Kansas City Chiefs, Marks saw a season-high 26 carries for 68 yards while also catching two passes for eight yards and a touchdown. Marks should have an even bigger workload in a plus matchup this Sunday if Chubb is ruled out, with Dare Ogunbowale jumping into the RB2 role for Houston.

Houston Texans rookie running back Woody Marks (ankle) returned to the practice field on Thursday, according to KPRC 2 Sports' Aaron Wilson. Marks was held out of Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury, but his return to the field on Thursday suggests he should be fine to play this weekend in a strong matchup versus the Arizona Cardinals. The 24-year-old fourth-rounder has been the Texans' lead back for most of the year, with Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) never able to make it back. He has seen double-digit carries in each of the last eight games, culminating in a season-high 26 rushing attempts in the Week 14 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Nick Chubb (ribs) was injured in that game, and he's in danger of missing Week 15 after having not practiced yet this week. Marks will be a high-volume RB2 in fantasy football, regardless of whether Chubb is active this weekend.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (knee) is missing a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Fields came down with a sore knee last week and was held out of the Week 14 loss to the Miami Dolphins. The 26-year-old has yet to practice this week and appears headed for another missed game this Sunday versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. Fields lost the starting gig under center to veteran Tyrod Taylor (groin), but Taylor injured his groin last weekend and might also be in danger of being ruled out this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. If neither QB gains clearance this weekend, rookie Brady Cook would likely be forced to make his first NFL start. It's really bad news for fantasy managers who were planning on starting any of New York's offensive skill players.

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor (groin) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. Taylor also missed practice on Wednesday, so he's currently on the wrong side of questionable to play this weekend in Jacksonville against the Jaguars in Week 15. The 36-year-old veteran took over the starting QB duties from the struggling Justin Fields (knee), but he injured his groin early in Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins and is now in jeopardy of missing time. Fields missed the Week 14 game due to knee soreness and hasn't practiced this week either. If neither Taylor nor Fields can play this weekend, rookie Brady Cook would be forced into his first NFL start. It's shaping up as a situation to avoid for fantasy managers heading into the first week of the playoffs in most leagues.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee), who sat out of practice on Wednesday with a sore knee, is doing positional drills at practice on Thursday, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Hall will most likely be listed as limited on Thursday's final injury report. Either way, it's a good sign that he's back at practice after picking up a DNP tag to begin the week. The 24-year-old could still be questionable for the Week 15 game this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, so his status to close out the week will be worth monitoring. If Hall is out or limited in any way this weekend, it would open up more playing time for Isaiah Davis. However, fantasy managers may want to avoid the Jets' entire offense this week, with it looking more likely that Brady Cook will start at quarterback. Both Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Justin Fields (knee) have not practiced this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt (lung) is currently in a local hospital with a lung issue and is undergoing medical evaluation, according to Nick Farabaugh of Penn Live. Watt will not practice on Thursday and could miss the Monday night game against the visiting Miami Dolphins. The 31-year-old seven-time Pro Bowler and four-time All-Pro has an extra day to recover this week, but his status is firmly up in the air in Week 15. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues will need to have a backup plan in place in case it's not looking good for Watt to play on Monday night. The former first-rounder is the heart and soul of a Pittsburgh defense that has been a disappointment this year. Through 13 games, Watt has 53 tackles (22 solo), only seven sacks, 10 tackles for loss, 18 QB hits, an interception, seven pass breakups, three forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. (knee) has had two of his best games of the season in the last two weeks with wide receiver Drake London (knee) sidelined, catching 13 of his 18 targets for 172 yards while playing over 90% of the offensive snaps. Pitts is considered questionable to play on Thursday night versus the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he's expected to suit up. Meanwhile, London will be missing a fourth straight game. Pitts has only found the end zone one time in 2025 (back in Week 4), but he should be more involved once again on Thursday night if he's active in the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues. Quarterback Kirk Cousins has used Pitts as a safety blanket of sorts with London out of the picture since spraining his PCL in Week 11. Fantasy managers should consider the former fourth overall pick to be a midrange TE1 for at least one more week.

The Baltimore Ravens reached an agreement on a three-year contract extension with nose tackle Travis Jones on Thursday, sources told Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. The deal will keep Jones under contract with Baltimore through the 2028 season and continues the Ravens' focus on rewarding its own players before they can hit the open market. The 26-year-old defensive tackle is having a fine season in 2025 in his fourth year in the league, recording 34 tackles (16 solo), a career-high-tying 1.5 sacks, six tackles for loss, five QB hits, two pass breakups, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery in 12 starts. The former third-rounder in 2022 out of Connecticut will now be sticking around with the Ravens long term as a building block on the interior of their defensive line.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Cincinnati Bengals have officially placed defensive lineman Trey Hendrickson (hip) on IR. The move comes as the 31-year-old underwent hip/pelvis surgery this week, effectively ending his time in the regular season. Per Schefter, he's expected to be sidelined for six weeks as he recovers. It's a disappointing end to a disappointing season for Hendrickson, who could only amass 16 tackles, four sacks, and a fumble forced in seven appearances following a hold-in amidst a contract dispute with the team this summer. In his stead, teammates Myles Murphy and Joseph Ossai (shin) should continue leading Bengals' edge rushers in snaps, with Cedric Johnson and Cam Sample mixing in behind them on occasion.

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders (hip) will not have his 21-day practice window opened this week, according to the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson. Sanders suffered a hip injury during the preseason and has been on Injured Reserve all year. With only three regular-season games left after this week, there's a good chance we won't see the 30-year-old placekicker at all this year. In his absence, Riley Patterson has filled in nicely for Miami, making 23 of his 25 field-goal attempts (92 percent) and 28 of his 29 extra-point opportunities. Patterson has been solid, but he's only made one field goal beyond 50 yards on just two attempts. He has been under the radar in fantasy football and is currently the No. 10 kicker in terms of overall fantasy points. Patterson will be on the streaming radar in deeper fantasy leagues for Miami's Week 15 matchup versus the Steelers on Monday night.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that running back Josh Jacobs (knee) will likely miss a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday, and the team will see where he's at on Friday. "He's been battling through it. We'll see," LaFleur said. This is a situation worth keeping a close eye on going into the weekend. Jacobs has been a must-start fantasy RB this year with 12 rushing touchdowns in 12 games, but he could be questionable going into a bad matchup on the road against one of the better defenses in the league in the Denver Broncos. The 27-year-old initially suffered a knee contusion in Week 11 and was held out in the Week 12 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Jacobs only missed one game, though, and handled his normal heavy workload the last two weeks. If he's in danger of missing Sunday's game in Denver, Emanuel Wilson would once again become a plug-and-play fantasy option.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike's yardage total in last Sunday's 31-29 victory over the Cleveland Browns may not have been what fantasy managers expected. Still, he should be on fantasy managers' radars considering his role in the offense. Dike and the Titans' air attack struggled through poor weather in Week 14, as he posted just 24 yards on 5-of-8 receiving against a tough Cleveland defense. However, the former fourth-round pick was the only Tennessee pass-catcher to eclipse four targets and two receptions on the afternoon. Moreover, he punched in his third receiving score of the campaign, and fifth total TD since Week 7. Dike's ceiling might be capped in a volatile Titans' passing game, but he's been the most consistent option of that bunch by far, and has a fine floor as a low-end asset in PPR leagues.

According to head coach Mike McDaniel, Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (ribs) will kick off this week as a limited practice participant as they gear up for a Monday night matchup with the hosting Pittsburgh Steelers. McDaniel also notes that the 24-year-old will wear a red non-contact jersey at least for Thursday's session. Achane exited Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets in the second quarter with a rib injury, although he apparently could have reentered the contest if necessary. Fortunately, it appears he's avoided a significant issue, but Miami will be cautious with him as they prep for Monday Night Football. As it stands, it doesn't seem that Achane will be in danger of missing Week 15, though fantasy managers should closely monitor his status throughout the week.

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey posted his most significant workload of the season in Week 14's 24-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, totaling 100 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 23 total opportunities. Harvey was out there for the most snaps (50) and highest snap share (68%) of his debut season, setting a new career-high with his touch total. It was a strong performance for the rookie, and he'd be on the rise even further if fantasy managers could rely on a heavy touch load moving forward. Denver's offense has been up and down, but Harvey's touchdown upside and an increasing opportunity share have him positioned to be a force down the stretch of the fantasy playoffs. He'll face a tough test this weekend against the visiting Green Bay Packers, though he still presents solid RB2 value.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele should continue to see heavy utilization in the team's pass attack when they take on the visiting Carolina Panthers in Week 15. The second-year pro has materialized as a decent second option in New Orleans since ex-teammate Rashid Shaheed was moved to Seattle. In fact, Vele has been the Saints' leading receiver through the last two games, out-producing Chris Olave and matching his snap total in both contests. While that isn't the most likely outcome moving forward, there's no doubt that the 27-year-old has built a solid rapport with rookie QB Tyler Shough, and he should continue to operate as the second or third option at worst in a Saints' offense desperate for playmakers. Vele is a better asset in PPR leagues.
