Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy will not play against the Lions on Christmas due to a right hand injury.

X-rays taken of the hand after McCarthy was injured in last Sunday’s win over the Giants came back negative, but head coach Kevin O’Connell said on Tuesday that further imaging on the injury showed that McCarthy suffered a hairline fracture.

Related players: Max Brosmer

Fantasy Impact:

McCarthy has been ruled out for Thursday's Christmas Day game, and Brosmer will make his second start of the season. The story went on to say O’Connell said that McCarthy will not be placed on injured reserve and the team will evaluate his status for Week 18 after Thursday’s game. It's worth noting the Vikings skill players will take a hit here with Brosmer under center.

Chiefs out of practice on Tuesday: CB Trent McDuffie (knee), KR Nikko Remigio (knee), WR Rashee Rice (concussion), WR Tyquan Thornton (concussion), CB Jaylen Watson (groin)

Chiefs could be down McDuffie/Watson against WR Courtland Sutton — presenting a tough matchup.

Fantasy Impact:

There isn't much reason to get Rice in the lineup for the Chiefs, who were eliminated from the playoffs and are likely down to their third string QB. Even if Rice plays, he could still be a big risk for fantasy lineups, just based on the QB play.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson could get more opportunities

Mike Tomlin said DK Metcalf's suspension could create an opportunity for Roman Wilson "to show his professionalism and his readiness and how he's been sharpening his sword for battle" while he's been a healthy scratch.

Fantasy Impact:

We speculated Monday who could get more work with Metcalf possibly not in the lineup. A heavy run approach and more chances for the Steeler TEs seems like a much more likely result. As the post said, Wilson has been a healthy scratch the last three weeks. He would be a risk for fantasy lineups.
