The Dolphins have a proven playmaker in RB Reggie Bush ...

Dec 12, 2012

The Dolphins have a proven playmaker in RB Reggie Bush they haven't used properly until Sunday's 27-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Against one of the NFL's stingiest defenses Miami finally decided to line Bush up as a receiver regularly. Not a gimmick play, but his job.

Bush, who averages 2.2 catches a game on an anemic offense, was finally put into motion, finally leaking out of the backfield on third downs. Tannehill threw Bush as many passes (seven) as he's caught in the past six games.

The Dolphins linebackers will be the first to testify Bush is a nightmare to cover out the backfield when he's running drag routes, screens, flares and speed outs. But the Dolphins rarely use him in that fashion until Sunday.

"It's something that is always available to us. On offense it is something we always have in our package," said Bush, who has contributed 1,018 all-purpose yards and leads the team with five touchdowns. "It's just a matter of coaches calling it."

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.
