Raiders QB Geno Smith unlikely to start Week 15

Dec 10, 2025

Raiders QB Geno Smith, dealing with a shoulder injury, is considered unlikely to start on Sunday, sources say. He won’t practice today.

That would put Kenny Pickett in line to start against the Eagles, his former team.

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.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb was listed as a full participant in practice today, putting him on track to play Sunday night against the Vikings.

Related Players: George Pickens, Ryan Flournoy, Jake Ferguson

Fantasy Impact:

The extra few days from last Thursday's battle with the Lions undoubtedly helped here. If he does indeed suit up, both Lamb and Pickens should be started in all formats.

DK Metcalf all good to go today at practice despite suffering an abdominal injury on Sunday

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Ben Skowronek, Adam Thielen

Fantasy Impact:

Good news for Metcalf managers, who are hoping to see if he can replicate his big, 12-target Week 14 performance. He should be considered on the WR2/3 fringe.

Buccaneers WR Mike Evans "good to go" for TNF

From Tampa: Mike Evans good to go tonight. Won’t play every down but will be in on the key ones.

OL Graham Barton said Evans was juiced up all week to make his return

Related Players: Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin

Fantasy Impact:

Fowler followed up by saying he was told Evans will "probably not play every snap", as he'll be on a bit of a pitch count. We should take this to mean that Evans will be back on the sideline if Tampa Bay has a comfortable lead, so that could cap his ceiling in fantasy. Consider him more of a WR3, but we could see better upside in the following two contests.
