Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle officially Doubtful for Week 16

Dec 20, 2024

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle and Dee Eskridge are both DOUBTFUL.

Related Players: Tyreek Hill, Jonnu Smith, Malik Washington, River Cracraft

Fantasy Impact:

Smith has basically been operating as the No. 2 pass-catcher for the Dolphins over the past couple of months, so this could end up pushing him into double-digit target rate, making him a top-5 option (if he wasn't already). Tyreek stays in the WR2 range, while the other ancillary options can be ignored.

Ravens WR Rashod Bateman officially Questionable for Week 16

Ravens WR Rashod Bateman, who was spotted today with a boot on his injured foot, did not practice today and is officially questionable for Saturday vs. Pittsburgh.

Related Players: Zay Flowers, Nelson Agholor, Tylan Wallace

Fantasy Impact:

It would be a bummer for Bateman if he were to miss, as he's having a career year as Lamar Jackson's favorite deep threat. This could end up bumping Flowers' target share a bit, which would make him closer to a WR2 than a mid-tier WR3.

Saints announced QB Spencer Rattler will start Monday Night vs the Packers.

Related Players: Jake Haener

Fantasy Impact:

We would rather see what Rattler can do out there anyways, but this is going to be a tough matchup against the Packers defense. He can safely be left on waiver wires.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Out for Week 16

The Steelers ruled out WR George Pickens and QB Justin Fields for Saturday vs. Baltimore.

OLB T.J. Watt (ankle) is off the injury report and will play.

Fantasy Impact:

We really can't trust any of these ancillary pieces with Pickens missing, and it comes as a huge downgrade to Russell Wilson and the offense, in general.
