Miami RB Daniel Thomas became the team’s first running ...

Sep 19, 2011

Miami RB Daniel Thomas became the team’s first running back to eclipse 100 yards since December 2009.

Thomas’ first game is particularly impressive, considering he did little during the preseason to heighten expectations for him.

Earlier in the week, coach Tony Sparano said he would like Bush to get 75 percent of the plays on offense — but once Thomas got hot, he started getting the majority of the touches. Whether that becomes a standard strategy will be worth monitoring.

Reggie Bush finished the game with 18 yards on six carries.

Fantasy Impact:

We all know by now that Reggie Bush may not be a 75%-of-the-work kind of back on a team that likes to run the ball. Thomas emerged from this game with some nice fantasy value, at least in certain matchups until we see him get these type of carries on a more consistent basis.

While Bush will still get his share of touches, especially in the passing game, Thomas is a guy to keep an eye on as someone who could get first and second down work.

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.
