Wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey is returning to the Broncos on a one-year deal.

Related Players: Tim Patrick, Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims

Humphrey was sneakily second on the team in slot snaps (154) last season, behind Jerry Jeudy (291), who is now in Cleveland. Marvin Mims figures to take at least some of those snaps, assuming the team cuts back on his "go" routes and actively incorporates him into the offense. Humphrey can be passed over in fantasy drafts.

The Bears have agreed to terms with RB D’Andre Swift on a three-year, $24 million deal.

After a career year with the Eagles, Swift heads to Chicago to be a big piece in Shane Waldron’s offense.

With D'Onta Foreman set to hit the market, Chicago brings in Swift to compete for touches with two home-grown talents; Herbert and Johnson. Swift should take over the lead-back role, but there will still be plenty of sharing going on, which impacts each of their fantasy outlooks. Swift will have a capped-upside as an RB2.

Geno Smith doesn’t have a game status designation, suggesting that he’s good to go. Jamal, Frank and Dee have been ruled out tho. Everyone else is questionable.

Smith returns to a pretty nice Week 16 matchup against the Titans, and should be considered a borderline QB1.

Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase will be out this week against PIT, Zac Taylor said.

Related Players: Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Trenton Irwin

Higgins and Boyd get the biggest bump, as a high-end WR2 and low-end WR3, respectively. Chase looks iffy for Week 17 as it currently stands, so see what you can do to insulate yourself for next week, just in case.

Seahawks QB Geno Smith (groin) will be a full go in practice today, per Pete Carroll. "That's exciting for us," he said.

Smith returns to a pretty nice Week 16 matchup against the Titans, and should be considered a borderline QB1.

Per Ian, he expects Ja'Marr Chase to miss Saturday's big divisional game against the Steelers.

Rapoport believes this is a week-to-week injury which could impact his availability for Week 17 as well. Higgins and Boyd get the biggest bump, as a high-end WR2 and low-end WR3, respectively.

Pete Carroll reiterates on Seattle Sports that Geno Smith will have a full week of practice and play against the Titans.

Smith's groin injury was expected to keep him out two weeks, so he looks to be on track to play in Week 16 - despite Lock's heroics on Monday night against the Eagles. Smith will get a favorable matchup against the Titans who were eliminated from the playoffs with their loss this past week.

Bengals star WR Ja'Marr Chase is likely to miss some time, sources said after the MRI on his separated shoulder today.

The expectation is that he is sidelined for this week’s game against the Steelers, and it could extend beyond that, as well, the post went on to say. Owners may not be able to count on his fantasy services for the remainder of the playoffs at this point. Higgins should take over the WR1 role with Boyd and Irvin all moving up the depth chart. The Bengals are alive in the playoff race and Jake Browning has proven to be capable option at QB, so all three WRs could have some fantasy value in the playoffs if needed.

For what it's worth: Geno Smith took far more throws and whatnot during early warmups before inactives were announced. But Drew Lock is doing the typical first-team work right now with the whole team out there. Took snaps from starting center Evan Brown.

While Smith is active, the team has yet to announce him as a starter as of about 40 minutes before game time. Given the rain falling prior to the game, Smith having a groin injury, and the information in Gustafson's post, this is potentially a tricky situation for Smith owners needing him tonight. Owners will want to follow the situation right up to game time.

Seahawks starting QB Geno Smith, dealing with a groin injury, is playing, source said. A surprise.

Videos emerged everywhere of Smith warming up and just about all of them said he appeared to look normal. Rapoport reported this morning that Smith would have an uphill battle to be able to go tonight, but it looks like Smith will get the start. It's a great matchup against and Eagles defense that's been lit up in recent weeks by the Bills, 49ers and Cowboys.
