Mason Taylor and AZ Thomas are also out.

Fantasy Impact:

We are absolutely not playing Ruckert, even more so considering that UDFA rookie Brady Cook is starting this weekend.

Ravens TE Mark Andrews good to go, WR Rashod Bateman Questionable for Week 15

Mark Andrew has not game status and is good to go. Rashod Bateman is questionable.

Related Players: Isaiah Likely, Zay Flowers, DeAndre Hopkins

Fantasy Impact:

The Bengals defense has been so poor against the tight end position, that both Andrews and Likely couldn't legitimately put up top-15 numbers in Week 15.

If Bateman ends up missing, Hopkins could be considered up closer to the WR4/5 range, but there should be better options out there.

Raiders QB Kenny Pickett will get the Week 15 start

Kenny Pickett will, in fact, start against his old team the Eagles, Pete Carroll just confirmed.

Related Players: Geno Smith

Fantasy Impact:

This is not a good spot-start situation for Pickett, on a Raiders offense that is one of the hardest to watch in the league. There are better SuperFlex options in Week 15.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown officially Out Week 15

yesterday · 3:14 PM EST

The Chiefs ruled out WR Hollywood Brown (personal) and three OL -- Trey Smith, Jawaan Taylor and Wanya Morris -- for Sunday's game vs. the Chargers.

Related Players: Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Tyquan Thornton, Travis Kelce

Fantasy Impact:

Outside of a Week 13 touchdown, Brown has been a relative non-factor through most of the second half of the season. Rice is still locked into lineups, while Worthy should be considered down in the WR4 range.
