look for the Falcons to return to the hurry-up set against the Bucs, who will have a new safety in Corey Lynch with Cody Grimm lost for the season. QB Matt Ryan is more relaxed in general in the no-huddle, and Atlanta wanted to keep the potent Packers’ passing game off the field last Sunday — and the strategy worked. With backup RB Jason Snelling very questionable to play, the Atlanta hurry-up makes sense. The Falcons don’t want to keep pounding Michael Turner early, especially if Snelling can’t go and with reserve Antone Smith already out. That means only Gartrell Johnson and possibly FB Ovie Mughelli will get some carries.

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.
