The Packers had been hoping No. 2 tight end Donald Lee (chest) would be able to play against the Dolphins, who are coming off a bye week and are in virtual 100 percent health.

McCarthy did say that Lee, who practiced on a limited basis, was a “nice surprise” after suffering his injury against the Redskins. Lee, who scored the Packers’ only touchdown, was initially injured on his fumble on the second play of the game – the same play on which Finley was injured – but stayed in the game until after his touchdown catch.

“I’m optimistic (about Lee) based on what I saw on the (practice) field. He went out there and practiced, and that was a nice surprise,” McCarthy said. “That was one player that was going in the right direction. It was good to see that."

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

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.
