Bears indicate QB Mitchell Trubisky could start Week 13

Nov 30, 2020

Bears head coach Matt Nagy deemed his team’s performance on Sunday night against the Packers “flat-out embarrassing” in a Monday press conference and challenged players and coaches to do better in Week 13 against the Lions.

It sounds like there’s a good chance that one of the players who will be on the field for that game is quarterback Mitchell Trubisky. Trubisky started on Sunday night with Nick Foles inactive due to a hip injury and went 26-of-46 for 242 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions. He also lost a fumble on a sack that the Packers returned for a touchdown.

Fantasy Impact:

Nagy didn’t commit to another start for Trubisky, but he suggested that’s the likeliest path for the team. “I thought Mitch did a good job,” Nagy said, via Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times. Foles did not practice at all last week and the Bears had lost their last four games with him in the lineup. Nagy did add he'd need to see where Foles is at as the week goes on.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
