Wholesale Nike MLB Jerseys China . Canada is now down to its 22-player limit, although but players wont be registered until Christmas Day. Changes could still be made as a result of a suspension or injury. Welcome to Week 12! Well, the second part of Week 12, anyway. Six teams played on Thanksgiving Day, and with no teams on bye this week, there are 26 teams left with games to play. All of them will play Sunday, except the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers, who play on Monday night.Injury concerns regarding players heading into the Sunday and Monday games can be critical. Each Saturday, this entry will be dedicated to each player who appears on the official weekly NFL game status injury report and how his status might impact fantasy teams.For those who might be new to this feature, injury reports provide some insight into a players status. The NFL requires teams to submit practice injury reports several times a week, identifying the body part that is involved in the injury. This year, there has been a change in the language of injury reporting, per the league office. The most notable change is the removal of the probable designation. For more detailed information on the changes and what they mean, click here.Early in the week, the practice injury reports indicate whether a player did not practice, was limited in practice or was a full participant in practice. On Fridays, all teams file a game status injury report assigning one of the following designations: questionable, doubtful or out. The designations listed here reflect the injury reports filed with the league office Friday evening. Teams playing Monday night do not have to issue their designations until Saturday. The explanation for each designation is as follows:Out: This is the easy one: The guy is not playing this week.Questionable (Q): This remains the most dreaded player designation. By definition it means a player is uncertain to play. How uncertain is uncertain? There is no percentage or measurement scale, so this classification remains rather vague. Whether a player ends up active or inactive often comes down to a game-time decision based on how he feels on game-day morning or how he performs during warm-ups. Final inactives are due 90 minutes before kickoff.Doubtful (D): The doubtful designation means a player is unlikely to play that week. Rarely does a player labeled as doubtful end up playing, unless he experiences a major turnaround before game time.Each week in this Saturday feature, we run down a list of key fantasy players, by position, who appear in the Friday injury report, along with the injured body part as listed on the report, player status and any relevant developments or insight. The primary fantasy positions are covered (quarterback, running back, wide receiver and tight end).This year, at the end of each positional section, there is a subgroup of players: Players off game status injury report. The probable tag no longer exists, so players who would have been listed as probable in previous years are now simply removed from the report. This means there will be players who appear in the practice injury reports during the week but will not appear on the game-status report Friday, since they are presumed active for game day. They are included in this article so that fantasy owners can see where players who were on the practice injury report during the week have been upgraded in advance of the games.At the end, key fantasy players listed Friday as out for the weeks games will appear as a group.Good luck in Week 12, everyone!QuarterbacksTom Brady, New England Patriots, knee, (Q): Brady is no stranger to injury reports, so much so that fantasy owners tend to dismiss it whenever he makes an appearance. But this week is different. Brady did not practice for two consecutive days due to a knee injury sustained in Week 11. Brady took a hit to his right lower thigh just above the knee, and he admitted to some soreness postgame. After his missed Wednesday and Thursday practices triggered some alarms for fans and fantasy owners, Brady returned to limited practice Friday and spoke to reporters afterward, another positive sign. ESPN.coms Mike Reiss reported there is little to no concern about Bradys availability for Sundays game against the New York Jets, but it is always worth verifying his status before game time. This happens to be a late game (4:25 p.m. ET), so fantasy owners should make sure there is someone they can insert into their lineup at the last minute should Brady be a surprise inactive.Jay Cutler, Chicago Bears, right shoulder, (D): Cutler is contending with a reported labral tear in his shoulder, and the conversation earlier this week revolved around whether or not the injury signaled the end of his season. Such injuries are not uncommon among throwers, and their presence rarely forces an abrupt end to a season, provided the athlete is still able to throw. Cutler finished out last weeks game but was reportedly seeking other opinions this week with regards to his injury. Coach John Fox told reporters Cutlers injury was not season-ending and that he was day-to-day, but the practice reports certainly suggest he is not in the mix for this week. Cutler did not practice at all and comes up on the game status report as doubtful. If he sits, as it appears he will, it will be Matt Barkley under center for the Bears.Players off game status injury report:Andy Dalton, Cincinnati Bengals, right shoulder: Dalton remains on the practice injury report because of a sore shoulder but practiced in full both Thursday and Friday after a limited outing Wednesday. His removal from the game status injury report indicates he will be under center as usual on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens.Tyrod Taylor, Buffalo Bills, right shoulder: Taylor appears on the Bills injury report due to shoulder soreness, but there was never any doubt that he would play this week. A full participant in practice daily and removal from the game status injury report confirm he will be on the field to face the Jacksonville Jaguars.Blake Bortles, Jacksonville Jaguars, right shoulder: At one point during the Week 11 game, Bortles was spotted on the sideline undergoing evaluation on his throwing shoulder. It did not keep him from returning to that game, nor did it keep him out of practice this week. Bortles was a full participant daily, and his removal from the game status injury report confirms his availability for Sundays game against the Bills.Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks, knee: Anyone who has watched Wilson in recent weeks can see the improvement in his health via his increased mobility both within and outside the pocket. He remains on the injury report during the week but continues to be removed from the game status injury report at weeks end. He will make his usual start on Sunday.Trevor Siemian, Denver Broncos, left shoulder: Siemian has appeared regularly on the injury report since injuring his nonthrowing shoulder in Week 4. Other than missing the subsequent weeks action, Siemian has played through any discomfort, although it appears the shoulder continues to bother him. He remains on the injury report but continues as a full participant daily, and his removal from the game status injury report indicates he will play.Ryan Fitzpatrick, New York Jets, knee: Fitzpatrick has already played through his knee injury, and coach Todd Bowles has once again named him the starter. After full practices daily and removal from the game status injury report, Fitzpatrick will be active against the Patriots.Running backsLeSean McCoy, Buffalo Bills, thumb, (Q): MCoy appears on the injury report again, but not because of his hamstring. This time its a dislocated left thumb (suffered in Week 11) that was the culprit, an injury that required a procedure Sunday night to reduce the dislocation. The team expressed optimism all along that McCoy would be available by the Week 12 game, and that appears to be the case. He was out on the practice field every day this week, listed as a limited participant but inspiring enough confidence in coach Rex Ryan to lead him to say he expects McCoy not only to play but also to get the majority of the carries. With Mike Gillislee already ruled out because of a hamstring injury, it appears the team will indeed lean on McCoy, with Jonathan Williams and Reggie Bush available behind him. Given that the issue was with the top half of McCoys left thumb, it should not present an issue for him in terms of ballhandling.Mark Ingram, New Orleans Saints, concussion, (Q): Ingram suffered a head injury in the Saints Week 11 game, something the team hadnt confirmed as a concussion until the first practices of this week. Both coach Sean Payton and Ingram himself expressed confidence about his return to practice, with Ingram declaring himself 100 percent recovered on Wednesday and insistent he would play. Still, he was listed as a limited participant in practice each day, and he comes into Sundays game as questionable. Its unclear whether he is simply waiting on clearance from the independent neurological consultant or whether he has even been cleared for contact, as the Saints have remained silent on the specifics. Thankfully, this is an early game against the Los Angeles Rams, so fantasy owners will know his status when the pregame inactives are announced.Latavius Murray, Oakland Raiders, ankle, (Q): Murray came into last Monday nights game in Mexico City listed as questionable because of his ankle. He played in that game, and while his yardage on the ground was not overwhelming, his yardage in the passing game boosted his fantasy value. Murray was a limited participant in practice each day this week -- just as he was last week -- leading us to believe he will be active for this weeks game against the Carolina Panthers. Its worth noting this is a late game (4:25 p.m. ET), so fantasy owners should have a backup plan in place in the event Murray is a surprise inactive.T.J. Yeldon, Jacksonville Jaguars, ankle, (Q): Yeldon suffered an ankle sprain in Week 11 and was held out of practice all week as a result. Treatment and rest may have been more important than practice, as Yeldon is listed as questionable, and the team expects him to be able to play on Sunday in Buffalo. The question remains as to how much time hell see; it will likely be a matter of how well he performs and how his ankle tolerates the early activity.Jacquizz Rodgers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, foot, (Q): This marks the first week Rodgers has returned to practice since injuring his foot in Week 8. He was a limited participant on Wednesday and Thursday, then upgraded to full on Friday. The questionable tag leaves the door open for Rodgers to be active this week, but even if he is, he would not be expected to carry a full workload. A healthy Doug Martin will still be the primary ball carrier for the Buccaneers.Players off game status injury report: Tevin Coleman, Atlanta Falcons, hamstring: The Falcons will welcome Coleman back this week after a three-game absence due to a hamstring strain. When Coleman returned to practice this Monday, coach Dan Quinn indicated he was at 100 percent health. His full participation daily showed the team was not concerned about limiting him, and his removal from the game status report shows they expect him to contribute on Sunday.Darren Sproles, Philadelphia Eagles, rib: Its pretty remarkable that Sproles could go from fracturing his seventh rib in last weeks game to completely off the injury report in advance of this weeks Monday night contest, but thats precisely what happened. Earlier in the week, coach Doug Pederson indicated Sproles injury was in a safe area and that his ability to play would be determined by how he was able to make it through the week -- in other words, pain tolerance. Sproles has shown plenty of toughness in his career, but a rib injury, even when not an actual fracture, can cause significant pain to the point of making it difficult for the athlete to breathe, twist, turn and stretch, not to mention absorb physical contact. This week, Sproles has made a convincing case to return, participating fully in each of the teams practices. His removal from the game status injury report Saturday indicates the team plans to have him available Monday night. The expected workload for Sproles is uncertain, however, not only because of his recent injury, but also because of the injury to Ryan Mathews. With Mathews ruled out due to a knee injury, Wendell Smallwood will definitely have a role in this weeks game, and it could end up being substantial.Matt Forte, New York Jets, knee: Forte continues to make a weekly appearance on the injury report and continues to be removed from the game status injury report. Its worth noting that Forte didnt even take a day off practice this week as he often does. Instead, he is listed as a full participant daily. Expect him to be a full go against the Patriots this Sunday.Lamar Miller, Houston Texans, ankle/ribs: Miller showed he was healthy enough to play in the Texans Monday night gamee in Mexico City.ddddddddddddHe remained on the practice injury report but practiced daily on a limited basis and is off the game status injury report. He should play as usual when the Texans host the San Diego Chargers Sunday.DeMarco Murray, Tennessee Titans, foot: Murray is status quo; he appears on the injury report during the week, as he is given Wednesday off from practice then returns to full participation Thursday and Friday. His removal from the game status injury report each week confirms he will play.Charcandrick West, Kansas City Chiefs, concussion: West was not in practice Wednesday, but returned to full participation Thursday, and followed it up with another full session Friday. His removal from the game status injury report confirms he will be available for Sundays game, but his role remains a lesser one to that of starter Spencer Ware.Wide receiversSammy Watkins, Buffalo Bills, foot, (Q): After all the Will he or wont he? chatter regarding Watkins status this week, it now appears he will indeed take the field Sunday, the most recent evidence being a roster move made by the Bills Saturday to make room for Watkins on the active roster. With Watkins now activated, he appears virtually certain to return to action Sunday after 10 weeks away from competition. He was a limited participant in practice throughout the week, and there seemed to be conflicting reports about whether he was ready to return to competition. Coach Rex Ryan said Watkins was good to go, while offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn sounded more cautious when he said, As far as implementing him in the game plan, I dont know about that yet. Lynn expressed concern about Watkins conditioning, a reasonable worry for a player who has been away from the playing field for such an extended period of time. It now looks as if Watkins will return, but there is no way to gauge how much action he will actually see. Given all the time off to allow his foot to recover, it stands to reason the Bills would not utilize him on every offensive snap. But what percentage? That is unclear. And how much will he be targeted by Taylor when the two have not played together in two months? With Robert Woods sidelined due to a knee injury, the opportunity quotient for Watkins is there, but he is not likely to be overworked in his first game back. This appearance will be an excellent opportunity to see how Watkins foot responds to game action after the additional rest time, and he could prove to be a huge boost for fantasy owners down the stretch.Julian Edelman, foot, and Chris Hogan, back, New England Patriots (Q): Edelman proved he was healthy enough to play and play well when he traveled home to the Bay Area to face the 49ers. His continued presence on the injury report should not overly concern fantasy owners when it comes to his status for this week. Hogan missed last weeks game with a back injury despite practicing on a limited basis each day. This week he stuck to the same practice schedule but has reportedly been improving, increasing his chances of being active according to Reiss.Torrey Smith, San Francisco 49ers, shoulder, (Q): Smith practiced on a limited basis last week but ended up missing the game, and it was the first absence due to injury of his career. Although Smith practiced on a limited basis each day this week, its not clear whether hes ready to return. Fantasy owners considering using him will have to wait for pregame inactive reports.Michael Crabtree, Oakland Raiders, ankle, (Q): Crabtree was listed on this weeks injury report with an ankle injury, although he played through Monday nights game against the Texans. It was Crabtrees worst statistical performance of the season (three catches for 5 yards, with a fumble) and he appeared to struggle at times with maintaining his balance. Perhaps the ankle was a factor? After a week of treatment and limited practice, it appears Crabtree is in line to play this week, but since this is a late game against the Panthers (4:25 p.m. ET), fantasy owners are advised to confirm his status before kickoff.Travis Benjamin, San Diego Chargers, knee, (Q): Benjamin returned to practice this week after sitting out all of Week 10s practices and, ultimately, the game. The Chargers then had a bye week and Benjamin no doubt benefited from the additional rest. He returned to the Chargers practice field Monday and even violated the teams tempo regulations because he was running too quickly, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. An even more encouraging sign was Benjamins participation in full practices throughout the week, the most he has done in the last month. While his knee may not be at 100 percent, it appears some of the symptoms Benjamin was experiencing have quieted with the reduced activity. Although he is listed as questionable heading into Sundays game, all signs point to Benjamin returning to action this week. The good news is this is an early game for the Chargers as they visit the Texans.Michael Floyd, Arizona Cardinals, hamstring, (Q): After not practicing either Thursday or Friday due to a sore hamstring, Floyd is now listed as questionable. The hamstring has been an issue for Floyd intermittently over the last month, but he has yet to miss a game. Still, his utilization within the game has certainly fluctuated, making it hard to anticipate what to expect if he does take the field. Coach Bruce Arians said Floyd will be a game-time decision, so fantasy owners will want to be sure to check pregame inactives before considering him as an option.Jarvis Landry, shoulder, and Kenny Stills, calf, Miami Dolphins, (Q): Both Dolphins receivers appeared with the same designation on the injury report last week, yet both were able to play. It is now one week further along, and the expectation is both will play again Sunday. Neither is at 100 percent health, and the limited practice reps are partially to limit exposure during the week. While fantasy owners always want to confirm player status prior to kickoff, both should be able to suit up again this week.Eddie Royal, Chicago Bears, toe, (Q): Royal has already returned from his toe injury to game action, but he has been exceptionally limited in those outings (one catch for 24 yards in Week 10 and two catches for 13 yards in Week 11). This week, Royal did not even participate in one practice, a downturn from the last two weeks. With Cutler unlikely to play in Week 12, it is uncertain just what to expect from the entire offense in Chicago. There are better options for fantasy players out there.Players off game status injury report: Julio Jones, Atlanta Falcons, shoulder: Jones has been a regular on the practice injury report ... but also a regular on the off game status injury report section of this article. After one limited day of practice Wednesday, Jones was a full participant Thursday and Friday. There is no doubt as to his availability this week against the Cardinals.Brandon Marshall, foot, and Quincy Enunwa, neck, New York Jets: Both of these receivers have made extended appearances on the injury report, but rarely have they been in jeopardy of actually missing a game. That continues this week, as both were full participants in Fridays practice and both were removed from the teams final injury report.Brandon LaFell, Cincinnati Bengals, knee: LaFell was on the injury report because of a sore knee and sat out Wednesdays practice. He returned to full practice Thursday and Friday, however, and his removal from the game status injury report indicates he is expected to play.Will Fuller V, Houston Texans, knee: Fuller was questionable heading into Monday nights game because of his knee, but he ended up playing and emerged without a setback. After limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Fuller was a full participant Friday and is off the game status report heading into Sundays contest against the Chargers.Tight EndsRob Gronkowski, chest, and Martellus Bennett, ankle/shoulder, New England Patriots, (Q): The easy one here is Bennett. Listed as questionable routinely because of his chronic ankle injury, the only noteworthy item here is that his shoulder has been added as an injury issue. Bennett was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday and Friday, with a day off in between on Thursday. Bennett would potentially see a spike in activity if Gronkowski were to sit this one out, which is where the injury report gets interesting.After suffering a chest injury in Week 10, Gronkowski was understandably ruled out early for Week 11, before the team made a cross-country visit to the 49ers. Early this week it sounded as if the Patriots planned to hold him out another week, despite his improvement, taking the long view of a season the team no doubt expects to extend well into January and possibly early February. But since Gronkowskis return to practice on a limited basis Wednesday, he has reportedly made significant progress and maintained his limited practice status through the end of the week. He is now expected to be a game-time decision, according to ESPNs Diana Russini, but its worth noting he remained in a noncontact jersey through Fridays practice. If Gronkowski ends up being active, given the nature of the injury and the recovery, there should be no predetermined limitations with regards to his playing time. Unfortunately, this is a late game against the Jets (4:25 p.m. ET), and with Gronkowskis status up in the air, fantasy owners must have an alternate plan in place.Players off game status injury report: Jimmy Graham, Seattle Seahawks, knee: Graham is a constant on the injury report, but he has proven that we no longer need to worry about his status on a consistent basis. His practice schedule remained the same this week -- off Wednesday followed by full practices Thursday and Friday -- and he is once again off the injury report heading into Week 12.C.J. Fiedorowicz, Houston Texans, shoulder: Nothing to see here. Coming off a Monday night game, Fiedorowicz was listed as a limited participant Wednesday and Thursday because of his shoulder. On Friday he upgraded to full participation and is off the injury report prior to the game against the Chargers.Players already ruled outThis space is intended for a list of key players, not including those who have been moved to injured reserve status, who are officially listed as out for the upcoming game.A.J. Green, Cincinnati Bengals, hamstring: Green suffered a hamstring injury in Week 11 that resulted in him being carted off the field. While the early concerns about it being a definitive season-ending injury appear to have been alleviated, at least for the time being, Green was ruled out early in advance of this game. Consider his status week-to-week going forward.C.J. Prosise, shoulder, and Troymaine Pope, ankle, Seattle Seahawks: Prosise suffered a fractured scapula, and Pope injured his ankle in what was a rough injury week for running backs, especially in Seattle. Thomas Rawls, no longer on the injury report, is expected to carry the load for the Seahawks.Mike Gillislee, Buffalo Bills, hamstring: The timing of Gillislees injury was particularly unfortunate, as teammate McCoy was coming off a procedure on his left thumb. If anyone knows how problematic hamstring injuries midweek can be, its certainly McCoy. Of the two, its Gillislee who has already been ruled out for this weeks game, and judging from coach Ryans concern at the time of the injury, this may not be the only week he is impacted.Ryan Mathews, Philadelphia Eagles, knee: Mathews suffered an MCL injury last week, and the Eagles have ultimately acknowledged this could sideline him for an extended time. He will not play on Monday night, meaning Smallwood should see an increased workload, even if Sproles (rib) is active (as it appears he will be).Robert Woods, Buffalo Bills, knee: Woods has been a regular on the injury report for several weeks because of his foot but has been back in action without incident since Week 8. Last week, however, Woods suffered a knee injury when he landed awkwardly and was subsequently hit. He walked off the field gingerly, but it became apparent quickly that he would not be available this week and perhaps longer. For now, Woods has definitively been ruled out for Week 12.Jeremy Maclin, Kansas City Chiefs, groin: Maclin remains out for the third straight week due to a groin injury.Cody Kessler, Cleveland Browns, concussion: Kessler remains out with a concussion. Josh McCown gets the start for the Browns.Julius Thomas, Jacksonville Jaguars, back: Thomas was unable to practice all week and was ruled out early for Sundays game.Be sure to check out Fantasy Football Now, Sundays on ESPN2 at 11:00 a.m. ET for last-minute inactives, rankings, injury impact and more!
