Dec 25, 2010

Four days before Dave Rayner kicked game-tying and game-winning field goals to snap the Lions' NFL-record 26-game road losing streak, the Lions trotted out his potential replacement.

But after watching veteran kicker Kris Brown work out last Wednesday, the Lions decided to stick with Rayner for the balance of the year.

Rayner, who has played six games as an injury replacement for Jason Hanson, booted field goals of 41, 28 and 34 yards last Sunday against the Buccaneers. The 28-yarder came as time expired in regulation, and the 34-yard proved to be the game-winner on the first possession of overtime.

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.
