Lions QB Jared Goff (COVID) 'feeling good' but uncertain for Week 16

Dec 21, 2021

Quarterback Jared Goff might miss Detroit’s Week 16 matchup with Atlanta after testing positive for COVID-19 on Monday.

In an interview with 97.1 The Ticket on Tuesday, Goff said he’s feeling OK and trying to stay prepared on Sunday if he’s able to do so.

“I’m feeling good. It’s pretty much a mild cold,” Goff said, via Eric Woodyard of ESPN. “I’m feeling fine. I had some symptoms pop up really Sunday night after the game.”

Fantasy Impact:

Goff admitted he didn’t know the chances of being available for Sunday’s game, but he’s doing his best to stay hydrated and rested. Goff has been playing well as of late, but if he can't go, Boyle likely gets the start in Week 16.

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

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.

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.
