49ers optimistic RB Matt Breida (ankle) returns for Week 14

Dec 02, 2019

Shanahan is optimistic that OT Joe Staley (finger), RB Matt Breida (ankle) and DE Dee Ford (hamstring) will return this week. Less so for WR Dante Pettis (knee). And DL Jullian Taylor (ligament sprain) could miss some time.

Fantasy Impact:

Despite the success of the 49ers, from a fantasy angle, their RBs have been tough to predict. It was Mostert who stood this past week but he still split work with Coleman. Wilson has been the goal line back and Breida would likely take his spot. Even then it's a three-headed monster at RB if Breida is back this week.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
