Giants WR Malik Nabers not practicing Thursday

Dec 26, 2024

WR Malik Nabers (toe) and C John Michael Schmitz (ankle) among those not practicing Thursday, per Brian Daboll.

Wouldn’t rule them out for Sunday just yet but not a great sign.

“See where we’re at (Friday),” Daboll said.

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt

Fantasy Impact:

This would be quite the blow to a team already devoid of receiving talent, and would be the third missed game of the rookie's season. He basically only needs one game to surpass 100 receptions and 1,000 yards, so hopefully he can get out there at least one more time. He should be a volume-based WR2 if he plays.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Related Players: Kenny Pickett

Fantasy Impact:

Things aren't trending well for Hurts, as fantasy managers should be looking for a Championship Week back-up as soon as possible.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
