St. Petersburg Times: It all seems so familiar. The QB with the
mild injury. The team coming off a tough road loss. The
unspectacular offensive performance. When last we saw this
scenario, Bucs QBk Jeff Garcia was benched and Brian Griese
promoted to starter. Now, with Griese sustaining an elbow injury
on his right (throwing) arm against the Broncos on Sunday, coach
Jon Gruden is noncommittal about who will start the next game -
just as he was after Garcia's bland performance in a Week 1 loss
at New Orleans. Gruden will again have a chance to make a
quarterback change if he deems it necessary. And, once again, he
can attribute such a move to injury. He said Monday that no
decision has been reached on who will start Sunday's division game
against the Panthers, who sit atop the NFC South at 4-1. But, from
all indications, the chances of Garcia starting have increased
exponentially.

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.
