Colts worked out QB Philip Rivers Monday night

Dec 09, 2025

A report on Monday said that quarterback Philip Rivers would work out for the Colts on Tuesday, but things are moving more quickly on Indianapolis.

Per multiple reports on Tuesday morning, Rivers actually had his workout with his former team on Monday night.

Fantasy Impact:

Those reports indicate Rivers, who retired after the 2020 season, threw the ball well during the workout, according to the story. The story added there is no word on any agreement at this time. Leonard is dealing with a knee injury and it seems as if his status for Week 15 is cloudy at best. There is also no word if Rivers, if signed, would start over Leonard or is just insurance. It's hard to imagine Rivers coming in and leading your fantasy team through the playoffs, but in deeper superflex or multi-quarterback leagues where QBs fly off your waiver wire, maybe Rivers is worth grabbing - just in case.

It’s been trending this way all week, but the Chargers will officially have their staring quarterback when they play the Eagles on Monday night.

Quarterback Justin Herbert is active and set to start despite undergoing surgery to repair his fractured left hand last Monday.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said during pregame warmups, Herbert has been sporting a balky glove with extra protection on his left hand. But he has also been simulating taking snaps from under center. Herbert was a limited participant in all three days of practice this week before being listed as questionable.

Bengals WR Tee Higgins back in concussion protocol

Bengals WR Tee Higgins experienced concussion-like symptoms last night and this morning and is back in protocol, coach Zac Taylor said.

Fantasy Impact:

Taylor said Higgins said he felt OK when he went through protocol yesterday and then reported the symptoms after the game, in another post from Baby. Higgins seems like he could have a tough time being ready for Week 15, now suffering a couple of concussions in the span of less than a month. Iosivas and Tinsley will run behind Ja'Marr Chase at WR and RB Brown should stay heavily involved in the passing game, as could TE Gesicki. In other news, the team waived WR Burton.

NFL flexes Patriots at Ravens to SNF in Week 16

yesterday · 5:30 PM EST

The NFL has flexed the Week 16 Sunday night game between the Bengals and Dolphins out of prime time. It will be replaced by the Patriots at Ravens game.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bengals loss to the Bills likely caused this switch. While the Ravens lost to the Steelers this past week, they should still be alive for a shot at the division at that point while the Patriots are looking for the top seed in the AFC.
