The Rams are listing WR Davante Adams as doubtful for Monday night against the Falcons.

It had been reported that Adams could miss the rest of the regular season. The Rams have already secured a playoff spot and their chances of winning the NFC West have dwindled — if the Seahawks and 49ers both win Sunday, their Week 18 meeting would be for the division and the No. 1 seed. Puka Nacua will continue to get peppered with targets — he had 12 catches on 16 targets for 225 yards and two touchdowns in Week 16.

The Jaguars downgraded RB Bhayshul Tuten from questionable to out for Sunday’s game against the Colts.

Tuten returned to practice this week after missing last week with a finger injury. He could return next week against the Titans, depending on how he practices throughout the week. The Jags could also rest him until the playoffs.

Giants TE Theo Johnson was downgraded to out for Sunday’s game against the Raiders due to an illness.

Center John Michael Schmitz is also not traveling to Vegas for a game that could determine who gets the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL draft. Daniel Bellinger will likely operate as TE1 for the Giants Sunday.

Alvin Kamara, Bryan Bresee, Cesar Ruiz are out.

Related Players: Audric Estime, Evan Hull, Taysom Hill

This profiles as another Swiss army knife kind of day for Taysom Hill, who could legitimately have 10-15 opportunities and a potential pass attempt or two. There are a lot of good TE streaming options this year, but if you're looking for a very solid floor play out of your tight end spot, Hill could be one of the best pieces to win a Fantasy Championship with.

Packers announce QB Jordan Love has been ruled out (shoulder/concussion) for Week 17. Malik Willis expected to start.

The raw passing volume will be down, which takes all Packers pass-catchers down a peg, but Willis is still an interesting streamer for deep/SuperFlex leagues due to his legs. Consider him somewhere in the QB15ish range.

49ers are listing TE George Kittle and WR Ricky Pearsall as questionable for Sunday night’s game against the Bears.

Related Players: Jake Tonges, Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, Demarcus Robinson

Jennings has really come along over the last month-plus so we should still expect him to be a very solid fantasy asset, whether Pearsall is in or not. As for Kittle, we need to have a contingency plan since they don't play until Monday night. Colston Loveland would be a fantastic option on the other sideline if he's available.

Bears WR Rome Odunze (foot) is out again Sunday.

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Luther Burden, Olimade Zaccheaus, Jahdae Walker

A separate report confirmed that Burden would be suiting up this weekend, but we'll see how big of a role he'll take on. He should be considered in the WR3 range, while Moore has seen enough of an uptick in usage that we can treat him as a fringe WR1/2.

Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. suffered a groin injury during today’s practice, and the team wants to see how he feels this weekend before deciding whether he can play Sunday vs. the Steelers.

Browns also have ruled out TE David Njoku for Sunday’s game due to a knee injury.

Terrible news for Fannin managers, as he looked to be in a great spot against a Steelers defense ranking 28th in TE aFPA. Hopefully we get some clarity heading into Sunday, as he should be a locked-in volume-based, top-10 option if he's near 100%.

WR Kayshon Boutte, WR Mack Hollins, OLB Harold Landry, LB Robert Spillane, DT Khyiris Tonga and LG Jared Wilson are all ruled out for Sunday, according to Mike Vrabel.

RB TreVeyon Henderson and WR Pop Douglas are questionable, per Vrabel.

Related Players: Rhamondre Stevenson

This makes things tough for fantasy managers setting lineups ahead of Saturday's games, but it's doubtful we get more information prior to Sunday morning. As it stands, Henderson *should* be a great RB2 play against the Jets, but you have to hedge your bets a little bit if you're in a start/sit conundrum with one of the backs playing Saturday.

If Henderson ends up missing Week 17, Stevenson would be a great RB2 play in his stead.

49ers John Lynch on KNBR:

George Kittle likely a game-time decision Sunday night on if he can rush back from MNF ankle injury to face Bears

Related Players: Jake Tonges

Phew, this is a rough one considering it's the final game of the Fantasy Championships. The safest play is likely to find a TE streamer you can plug in, but if you want to roll the dice with Kittle, make sure you have either Colston Loveland, Cole Kmet, or Jake Tonges on your roster. We would rank them in viability in the order listed.
