St. Petersburg Times: The hit that knocked Ike Hilliard
unconscious Oct. 19 could force him to miss some games and
threatens to end his season. Hilliard, 32, still is experiencing
headaches from the helmet-to-helmet blow he sustained when he was
sandwiched between Seattle linebackers Leroy Hill and Lofa Tatupu
nearly four weeks ago. Hilliard has not missed a game since but
said his condition has not improved and worried earlier this week
he might need surgery. As a rookie with the Giants in 1997,
Hilliard underwent spinal fusion surgery, so the latest injury is
particularly worrisome. But after consulting with doctors Tuesday,
Hilliard has decided to rehab the injury and is expected to miss
Sunday's game against the Vikings. "I've been dealing with
something on and off for the last five years, but now it's
constant,'' Hilliard said. "Obviously, after the hit, it's
something I've got to get control of.''

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.
