Cowboys beat writer Calvin Watkins: "Dez Bryant saw some double-coverage. But the issue we have with Bryant not getting the ball on a consistent basis is the Cowboys' inability to put him in motion more often. Make defenses try to defend Bryant one-on-one by putting him on the move. The Cowboys say Bryant knows the offense and if that's the case give him more opportunities to get free. He finished with one catch for 50-yards, the touchdown, but that was off a broken play. You can't rely on Bryant to keep making plays off busted coverages and with Tony Romo rolling in the pocket when under duress. Bryant needs to make plays within the structure of the offense so the Cowboys can utilize his talents more often."

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
