Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) and WR Marquise Brown (non-COVID illness) are questionable for Week 15's game against the Green Bay Packers.

Related Player: Tyler Huntley

Jackson did not practice at all this week, including Friday's walk-through. If he does play Sunday, he would be severely limited. The Packers defense has been very good and is slowly getting healthy. It may be best for Jackson to take a week off.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been placed on the reserve/COVID list.

Being placed on the list this late in the week puts Waddle in serious danger of missing this weekend's contest against the New York Jets. He can still be cleared if he produces two negative tests 24 hours apart, but the late addition to the reserve/COVID list makes him being available for Week 15 unlikely. This is a situation to monitor, but fantasy managers should plan to be without their terrific rookie receiver for the start of the fantasy playoffs.

QB Josh Johnson has been added to the Baltimore Ravens' active roster. He was on the New York Jets practice squad.

This is more about Lamar's ankle than Johnson's role with the team. Jackson is very much in doubt for Week 15.

A fourth runner, Brian Hill, was elevated from the practice squad for the game and played 16 snaps on special teams. Hill’s was only a short-term promotion while cornerback Saivion Smith and receiver River Cracraft were signed to the 53-man roster. Perhaps that’s an indication the 49ers feel Elijah Mitchell will be back this week. (Smith, meanwhile, was waived on Monday but, per a league source, the 49ers plan to sign him back to the practice squad after he clears waivers.)

It may be a little bit of a read-between-the-lines situation here, but it's at least a sign of hope for Mitchell owners who may have survived Week 14 and are heading into the playoffs and Week 15. The story also talked about how Mitchell maybe can't be relied on for 25 touches a game based on his injuries, and the story indicated Wilson could steal some touches to limit Mitchell and keep him healthy for the stretch run. If Mitchell can't go, Wilson, who played on a team-high 42 snaps, would likely get the biggest workload in Week 15.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh told reporters that QB Lamar Jackson has an ankle sprain.

The good news is it's “not a high-ankle sprain.” Harbaugh indicated there are plans for Jackson to be out there Sunday, but “we’ll see where it goes." Seems like potential good news, but this could be a decision made much later this week so owners should come up with a backup plan. The Ravens play a later Sunday game which could complicate matters for owners in the fantasy playoffs this week. If Jackson can't go, Huntley would get the start.

The New York Jets will be without RB Tevin Coleman (concussion) for Week 14's game against the New Orleans Saints. WR Elijah Moore (quad) is questionable.

Related Players: Ty Johnson, Austin Walter, Denzel Mims, Jamison Crowder, Braxton Berrios

Coleman has missed majority of 2021 for a myriad of injuries. Moore could be in line for another strong game against a passive Saints secondary so long as he can manage his quad injury.

Jets HC Robert Saleh told reporters Wednesday that WR Keelan Cole will practice this week after being removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

The Jets receiving corps is awfully crowded behind Corey Davis and Elijah Moore, making Cole nothing more than waiver wire fodder.

Jets’ HC Robert Saleh told reporters that WR Corey Davis will undergo season-ending core-muscle surgery Tuesday.

Moore had already been emerging as the team's WR1 and that should continue the rest of the season with Crowder perhaps the team's WR2. Other snaps and targets likely go to some combination of Cole, Berrios and Mims. The struggling Zach Wilson at QB will continue limit fantasy values of all Jet WRs.

Patriots RBs Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) and Damien Harris (neck), and TEs Jonnu Smith (shoulder) and Hunter Henry (neck) are questionable for Week 12's game against the Tennessee Titans.

It is expected that all four players suit up, but with the Titans severely undermanned, one or two could be surprise inactives.
