Throughout the offseason, there has been talk about wide receiver Jacoby Jones possibly moving into the Texans' starting lineup.

Jones had a breakout year in 2009, showcasing athletic prowess, added physicality and improved instincts. The only concern was with his hands - he dropped several passes. For much of training camp, Jones has proved his hands are steady and ready this season.

"I can catch a BB in the dark with my eyes closed," said Jones, who is entering his fourth NFL season.

After Jones caught three passes for 81 yards and zero touchdowns in 2008, his 2009 statistics soared to 27 catches for 437 yards and six touchdowns to go with a team-high 16.2 yards per catch. Among the eight games in which he made at least two receptions, he scored touchdowns in six of them.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 13

Adam Schefter

yesterday · 7:52 PM EST

Cowboys ruled out Jake Ferguson for the Thanksgiving game vs. the New York Giants due to his concussion. His replacement, once again, will be Luke Schoonmaker.

Fantasy Impact:

This was expected, but it could have been a nice matchup for the No. 2 pass-catcher. Schoonmaker is a little less exciting but is worth a TE stream for desperate managers.

Seahawks WRs DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett miss Wednesday practice

yesterday · 7:48 PM EST

The Seahawks list DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett as non-participants in practice today. These appear to be new injuries (though Lockett was also listed with a knee injury in Week 7). Leonard Williams has been playing through his foot injury the past few weeks.

Related Players: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Jake Bobo

Fantasy Impact:

This is obviously not a great sign for Geno Smith or the general offensive environment for the Seahawks. We would have to imagine that JSN would be seeing his fifth double-digit target game of the season if either of the two were forced to miss Week 13, which catapults him into solid WR2 territory. We'll keep an eye on the reports through the rest of the week.

Giants QB Tommy DeVito officially Questionable for Week 13

Giants QB Tommy DeVito (right forearm) is listed as questionable for tomorrow against the Cowboys. Drew Lock, his backup, took some first-team reps just in case.

Fantasy Impact:

What a treat this game will be. Whether DeVito or Lock is back there on Thanksgiving, they both need to remain firmly on waiver wires.
