Dolphins Williams, Steelers Polamalu questionable

Jan 01, 2010

The Dolphins could be without RB Ricky Williams (shoulder) this Sunday when they take on the Steelers.

After fully practicing one day early in the week, Williams was limited for the second consecutive day Friday, leaving his status for the game as questionable. Dolphins coach Tony Sparano said he feels comfortable with second-year RB Lex Hilliard and his ability to handle a heavier load if he’s called upon to do so.

The Steelers, meanwhile, listed S Troy Polamalu (knee) as questionable after he was limited in practice all week. Polamalu missed the previous six games because of his injury.

The Steelers (8-7) and Dolphins (7-8) both need to win this game, then receive help, to make the playoffs.

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.
