Bills WR Keon Coleman is, once again, officially inactive for tonight's game against the Texans.

Related Players: Khalil Shakir, Tyrell Shavers, Joshua Palmer

Coleman, who is, for all intents and purposes an NFL player, will hang out on the sideline for the second week in a row. This sets up well for a big Shakir game, but so did last week, and he turned three targets into -3 yards. It's fine to go back to the well here if you consider him in the fringe WR3/4 range, but it would be hard to trust anyone behind him. Knox is somewhere in the TE20 range with Dalton Kincaid out.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco and WR Xavier Worthy were listed as limited participants in today’s practice.

Related Players: Kareem Hunt, Brashard Smith, Rashee Rice, Hollywood Brown, Tyquan Thornton

Each player still has some time, but as it stands, Hunt would be a fringe RB2/3 option and Smith would operate as an RB4 candidate were Pacheco to miss again.

Rashee Rice is an obvious WR1 regardless, but Brown could sneak into WR4 consideration in a good matchup, should Worthy miss the game.

Colts QB Daniel Jones was limited with a calf injury after having no injury status yesterday. Something to watch.

Related Players: Riley Leonard

With Anthony Richardson a distant memory, Leonard would be the most likely option for a spot start if Jones were to miss Week 12. This would be a pretty large downgrade to the receiving room, but there is still time left for Jones to make a recovery.

Jaxson Dart will practice again Thursday, per Mike Kafka. Still heading in the right direction.

Related Players: Jameis Winston

Even if the team pulls back the reins a little on Dart's designed rushes, he still has the rushing upside to land as a top-15 option if he plays in Week 12. Consider him a QB streaming option, should he be cleared in time.

For a second straight day today, Bengals QB Joe Burrow has been taking snaps with Cincinnati’s starting offense, preparing him for the possibility that he could play Sunday vs. New England.

Related Players: Joe Flacco

This would be a very early return for Burrow, particularly when we consider that the team is 3-7 at the moment. If he were to somehow make a miraculous return in Week 12, he would actually be in a good spot against the Patriots' 25th-ranked defense according to QB aFPA, but he'd also be without Ja'Marr Chase, who is serving a one-game suspension. We'll keep an eye on the situation, but things are certainly pointing toward a return.

Sources: Texans RB Joe Mixon is not expected to play this season as he deals with a foot injury from the offseason.

Mixon likely remains on the Physically Unable to Perform list through the season. Meanwhile, Houston moves forward with Nick Chubb and Woody Marks.

This shouldn't come as much of a surprise considering we haven't heard a peep about him in months. As such, this doesn't impact Marks and Chubb's ROS outlook. We'll have to see how this impacts Mixon's 2026 availability.

The Giants listed QB Jaxson Dart as a limited, non-contact participant in today's practice, his first since suffering a concussion in Week 10.

Josh Jacobs will not practice today but LaFleur isn’t ruling him out for Sunday just yet.

Related Players: Emanuel Wilson, Chris Brooks

Still early in the week, but we're expecting this to be the Emanuel Wilson show if/when Jacobs is ruled out. Wilson out-snapped Brooks 39-to-5 in the Week 11 game Jacobs missed, putting the former in RB2 territory.

Jets HC Aaron Glenn officially announced QB Tyrod Taylor will start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Related Players: Justin Fields

The raw dropbacks will at least go up, but there's such a lack of firepower in the pass-catching group that Taylor still shouldn't be on many fantasy radars. He's currently in the final spot of our QB rankings.
