Minneapolis Star Tribune: QB Gus Frerotte suffered a low back
bruise in the Vikings' 20-16 victory over the Lions today at Ford
Field, according to Vikings coach Brad Childress. Childress
refused to speculate if Frerotte might miss additional time and
Frerotte declined to speak to reporters. Frerotte was hurt making
a tackle late in the first half after throwing an interception and
was taken from the sideline to the locker room on a cart. Tarvaris Jackson entered the game in the 2nd half as the Vikings rallied
from a 6-3 halftime deficit. Jackson, who was benched as the
Vikings starter after the team's 0-2 start, completed eight of 10
passes for 105 yards with a touchdown, no interceptions and an
impressive passer rating of 143.8. Childress said Frerotte is
"very sore right now so we're trying to settle him down and make
him comfortable." Childress also praised Jackson for his
performance. "I can't say enough about Tarvaris coming into the
game and how he played," Childress said.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

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.
