The Steelers have placed Mason Rudolph on IR

Fantasy Impact:

Hodges will get the start with Paxton Lynch the backup in Week 17. It's a big game for Pittsburgh who is still alive for a playoff berth. They need to beat the Ravens, who are resting most of their players, and also need a Titans loss.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Kansas City Chiefs and star tight end Travis Kelce have agreed to the parameters of a four extension.

Fantasy Impact:

With George Kittle setting the market, both Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs had an established ballpark to work around, which allowed the talks to rapidly progress. Kelce and the Chiefs had been in discussions for a while, and they have now agreed to an extension that will keep him in Kansas City for six years. The deal is not yet official, so no specifics have been released, but Ian Rapoport suggested that it is between $14 and $15 million AAV in new money, with $25 million guaranteed. Travis Kelce has been one of the top receiving threats in the league regardless of position for years now, and this extension will keep him as one of Patrick Mahomes top targets for years to come.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has signed a five year extension worth $75 million.

Fantasy Impact:

George Kittle has deservedly become the highest paid tight end in the NFL. While the full year to year breakdowns are not yet known, we have learned that the star tight end will receive an $18 million dollar signing bonus, and that the deal has $30 million in true guarantees. The injury guarantee is $40 million. The size of this contract appears to be quite the value for the 49ers given Kittle's age, role, and production. Kudos to both sides for being able to agree to a market altering deal during the uncertainty NFL teams and players are currently contending with.

Seahawks TE Will Dissly (achilles) practices Wednesday

Seahawks TE Will Dissly practiced with the team on Wednesday despite suffering a torn achilles tendon in Week 6 last year.

Fantasy Impact:

Dissly ran routes and caught passes in light drills as reporters watched from the sidelines. The Washington product has been productive on a per-game basis in what has been an injury-laden career to this point. Dissly has only finished eight regular season games in two seasons but has six career touchdowns and flashed great chemistry with Russell Wilson before going down last year. He will be eased into action and likely split snaps with Greg Olsen, but Dissly has sleeper appeal as a late-round tight end.
