Joe Mixon removed from COVID list

Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield was listed as a non-participant in today’s practice due to his sprained AC joint while RB Bucky Irving was listed as a full participant.

Related Players: Teddy Bridgewater, Rachaad White, Sean Tucker

The Bucs kept the passing offense pretty dang conservative with Bridgewater in last week, so we wouldn't expect him to be much more than a lower-end QB2, even with a full game to work.

We'd like to say Bucky Irving will return to his typical 25-opportunity upside, but it was mentioned that he may be eased in, as the team did with Chris Godwin. If that's the case, he's closer to a low-end RB2 than a locked-in RB1 like we came into the season hoping. Tucker and White are more desperation-FLEX options.

Texans QB C.J. Stroud, who has missed the past three games with a concussion, was a full participant in practice today.

Good sign for the Texans as they prepare for an important Week 13 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. We would expect Stroud to get the nod, putting him on streaming radars with a receiving group that looks like it's begun to coalesce.

Bengals officially activated Joe Burrow for Thursday night’s game at Baltimore. He is expected to start.

It's fair to assume this means Burrow will be taking the field on Thanksgiving. Might be too late for the Bengals to make the playoffs, but there's still time for our fantasy teams. Consider him a QB1 in what could end up being an exciting divisional matchup.
