George Kittle SF TE49ers' George Kittle: Shaping up as game-time decision
2m agoKittle (ankle) plans to work out before Sunday night's game against the Bears to determine if he will be able to play versus Chicago, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Kittle is listed as questionable after not practicing all week, and it appears he'll be a true game-time decision for Week 17. Unfortunately for fantasy players, Kittle's status may not be known until inactive are released 90 minutes prior to Sunday night's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Jake Tonges would be in line for an elevated role in the passing game if Kittle is unable to play.

Derrick Henry BAL RBRavens' Derrick Henry: Carries Baltimore to victory
9m agoHenry rushed the ball 36 times for 216 yards and four touchdowns in Saturday's 41-24 win over the Packers.
The Ravens were likely to rely on their run game in the absence of Lamar Jackson (back), though his effectiveness combined with game script led to a particularly impressive showing. He set a new career high with 36 rushing attempts, and he also surpassed 200 rushing yards for the first time since Week 8 of the 2022 campaign, thanks to long rushes of 30 and 25 yards -- the latter of which went for a touchdown. Henry found the end zone three additional times, matching his career high of four touchdowns, with the previous performance coming in Week 14 of the 2018 season. His vintage showing kept the Ravens' playoff hopes alive and marked his fifth straight game with at least 100 yards from scrimmage.

Malik Willis GB QBPackers' Malik Willis: Exits with shoulder injury
1h agoWillis exited Saturday night's game against the Ravens in the fourth quarter with an apparent right shoulder injury and is questionable to return.
Willis injured his throwing shoulder on the follow-through in the fourth quarter and immediately sprinted to the locker room to undergo further examination. Prior to leaving the game, Willis was cooking for Green Bay, completing 18 of 21 passes for 288 yards and one touchdown. He also rushed nine times for 60 yards and two touchdowns. Clayton Tune is now in the game at quarterback for Green Bay. Tune immediately threw an interception on his first pass attempt.

Marvin Harrison Jr. ARI WRCardinals' Marvin Harrison: Expected to play against Cincinnati
1h agoHarrison (heel) is expected to play Sunday against Cincinnati but will have his snaps managed for the second straight contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Harrison returned to the lineup last week against the Falcons but played just 51 percent of the offensive snaps, turning in an unusable 1-14-0 receiving line on three targets. With Harrison again expected to play and have his snaps limited, it's a downgrade to both Harrison and Michael Wilson for a fantasy matchup against a stingy Cincinnati secondary that has shut down opposing wide receivers for the most part this season.
-
Kamal Hadden GB CBPackers' Kamal Hadden: Exits with ankle injury
1h agoHadden (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday night's game against the Ravens.
Hadden exited in the third quarter, having to be carted off with an ankle injury. The defensive back ends the game with one tackle assist. With Zayne Anderson (ankle) ruled out and Nate Hobbs (knee) questionable to return to the game, Kitan Oladapo and Bo Melton are the only reserve defensive backs left available for the rest of Saturday night's game.
-
Nate Hobbs GB CBPackers' Nate Hobbs: Ruled out with knee
2h agoHobbs (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday night's game against the Ravens.
Hobbs was unable to return for the second half of Saturday night's game. The cornerback will end the night with one solo tackle and one pass defensed. The rest of the Packers' secondary will have to fill in for the injured corner, with Bo Melton as the primary candidate for an increased snap share.
-
Lyon Richardson CIN SPReds' Lyon Richardson: Pushed off 40-man
5h agoThe Reds designated Richardson for assignment Saturday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Following the Reds' acquisition of Dane Myers (knee) from Miami on Saturday, Richardson will end up as the roster casualty necessary to create space on the 40-man. The 25-year-old reliever finished 2025 with a 4.54 ERA and 1.54 WHIP alongside a 30:21 K:BB across 37.2 regular-season innings. However, his 4.06 FIP indicates that he performed slightly better than what his base stats suggest, and there's a chance another team in need of bullpen depth claims the right-hander off waivers.
-
Ethan O'Donnell CIN CFMarlins' Ethan O'Donnell: Sent to Miami
7h agoThe Reds traded O'Donnell to the Marlins on Saturday in exchange for Dane Myers (knee).
O'Donnell spent the entire 2025 campaign with the Reds' Double-A affiliate and struggled to the tune of a .235/.326/.325 slash line across 503 plate appearances. The 23-year-old will likely report to Double-A Pensacola upon joining his new organization and aim to reach Triple-A Jacksonville by the end of 2026.
-
Dane Myers MIA CFReds' Dane Myers: Traded to Reds
7h agoThe Marlins traded Myers (knee) to the Reds on Saturday in exchange for Ethan O'Donnell.
After signing JJ Bleday to a one-year deal earlier Saturday, the Reds will continue to bolster their outfield unit by bringing in Myers. The 29-year-old received his first extended look in the majors in 2025 and slashed .235/.291/.326 with 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and 18 steals across 333 plate appearances. His right-handed bat and career .816 OPS against southpaws may enable him to work in the short side of a platoon in the Reds' outfield. Otherwise, he'll provide depth to the big-league bench or head down to Triple-A Louisville.
-
Hunter Harvey KC RPCubs' Hunter Harvey: Signs with Cubs
10h agoHarvey (groin) signed a one-year contract with the Cubs on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Shoulder and adductor injuries limited Harvey to just 12 appearances with the Royals this past season, during which he struck out 11 batters and walked one over 10.2 shutout innings. The 31-year-old righty boasts a 3.11 ERA and 1.10 WHIP across his big-league career and will likely see action in high-leverage spots with the Cubs, though he doesn't project to take many save chances away from Daniel Palencia.
-
Keegan Thompson CIN RPReds' Keegan Thompson: Designated for assignment
11h agoThe Reds designated Thompson for assignment Saturday.
Thompson signed a major-league contract with the Reds in November, but he'll now be kicked off the 40-man roster to make room for JJ Bleday. The 30-year-old Thompson owns a 3.64 ERA across his MLB career but spent the entire 2025 campaign with the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate, posting a 4.43 ERA and 1.42 WHIP over 65 innings.
-
J.J. Bleday ATH CFReds' JJ Bleday: Headed to Cincy
13h agoBleday signed a one-year, $1.4 million contract with the Reds on Saturday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Bleday was let go by the Athletics earlier this offseason after slashing .212/.294/.404 with 14 homers, 39 RBI and 48 RBI across 344 MLB plate appearances in 2025. The 28-year-old slugger will provide the Reds with another left-handed bat in the outfield alongside Will Benson and TJ Friedl, but there's no guarantee that Bleday will get to start regularly against right-handed pitchers.

Onyeka Okongwu ATL CHawks' Onyeka Okongwu: Monster double-double in loss
2m agoOkongwu chipped in 31 points (10-16 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 36 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 128-125 loss to the Knicks.
Okongwu ended one point and one assist away from tying his respective season-high marks in both categories. The big man has started 14 games in a row due to the persistent injuries of Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and he's been productive for the most part. This was his fifth game with at least 20 points in that stretch, which is a decent tally considering he has a secondary role on offense behind the star duo of Trae Young and Jalen Johnson.
-
Karl-Anthony Towns NY CKnicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Impressive double-double
4m agoTowns posted 36 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 17-18 FT), 16 rebounds and an assist across 30 minutes in Saturday's 128-125 win over the Hawks.
Towns had a dominant performance on offense but was also outstanding on the glass, as he ended just two boards shy of tying his season-high output in that category. Towns also bounced back from the 11-point dud he posted on Christmas against the Cavaliers, and this was the third time he notched at least 35 points in a game since the beginning of December. Jalen Brunson remains the Knicks' go-to player on offense, but Towns is an excellent No. 2 alternative who can take over a game on any given matchup.

Giannis Antetokounmpo MIL PFBucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Shows out in return
19m agoAntetokounmpo generated 29 points (10-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 25 minutes of Saturday's 112-103 win over the Bulls.
Antetokounmpo returned from a seven-game absence for Saturday's contest, but he didn't skip a beat. The superstar dominated Chicago, converting 66.7 percent of his field goal attempts and falling two rebounds short of a double-double, despite being limited to 25 minutes. Given Antetokounmpo's history of calf issues and the touchy nature of the injury, expect Milwaukee to ease him into his typical workload.
-
Jaylon Tyson CLE SFCavaliers' Jaylon Tyson: Massive double-double
26m agoTyson generated 23 points (10-20 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 15 rebounds, one steal and one block across 30 minutes of Saturday's 117-100 loss to Cleveland.
Tyson registered his fourth double-double of the season, and he set a career high in rebounds. The second-year wing paced Cleveland in points and field goal attempts. Eight of his 15 rebounds came on the offensive end. On the year, Tyson is averaging 13.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.0 steals across 27.6 minutes per game this season.
-
Kevin Durant HOU PFRockets' Kevin Durant: Goes for 30 in win Saturday
27m agoDurant ended Saturday's 117-100 win over the Cavaliers with 30 points (11-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), four rebounds and seven assists in 29 minutes.
Durant turned back the clock with an efficient performance, and he carried the Rockets to a comfortable 17-point win over the Cavaliers. This was Durant's third game with 30 or more points across his last six outings, and it'd be fair to say he's going through his most prolific stretch of the campaign. Durant is also on a run of seven straight games with 20-plus points, averaging 27.0 points per game in that span.
-
Cam Thomas BKN SGNets' Cam Thomas: Catches fire in return
37m agoThomas generated 30 points (9-15 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four assists and three rebounds across 20 minutes of Saturday's 123-107 win over the Timberwolves.
It was Thomas's first game action since Nov. 5, but he didn't have to shake off any rust. He put on a show, notching his third 30-point performance in nine appearances this season despite playing just 20 minutes. While the Nets will likely continue to ease Thomas into a starter's workload, Saturday's contest showed his huge fantasy upside.
-
Nikita Kucherov TB RWLightning's Nikita Kucherov: Three-game, five-point streak
2m agoKucherov scored twice in a 4-2 win over the Panthers on Saturday.
Kucherov made it 3-1 early in the second period, scoring on a 2-on-1 with Brayden Point. His second went into an empty net. Kucherov is riding a three-game, five-point scoring streak (two goals, three assists). He has 47 points, including 15 goals, and 102 shots in just 33 games this season, which puts him squarely into the NHL's top-10 scorers.
-
Andrew Copp DET CRed Wings' Andrew Copp: Snaps eight-game goal drought
13m agoCopp scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 5-2 los to the Hurricanes.
Copp redirected a pass past Brandon Bussi's outstretched pad early in the third period to make it 3-2. He has five points (one goal, four assists) in his past four games (four shots), but it was Copp's first goal in nine games (one goal, seven assists).
-
Michael Rasmussen DET CRed Wings' Michael Rasmussen: First goal in 13 games
19m agoRasmussen scored a goal Saturday in a 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Rasmussen opened the scoring in the first period on a quick wrist shot from between the circles. He has a goal and assist in his last two games, but the snipe was his first in 13 games (first in December). Rasmussen is a guy who is better on the ice than in the fantasy arena. He has five goals, six assists, 36 hits, 35 shots and 26 blocked shots in 34 games this season.
-
John Gibson DET GRed Wings' John Gibson: First loss in last nine starts
27m agoGibson made 33 saves in a 5-2 loss to Carolina on Saturday.
He allowed four goals. Gibson's personal eight-game winning streak ended Saturday. The Canes are one of the NHL's top goal-scoring teams, and they turned up the heat. Still, Gibson had been dominant in December, running up an 8-0-0 record with two shutouts and a .927 save percentage prior to Saturday. He looks a bit like the netminder he was eight-to-10 years ago, but we don't know if we should say that out loud. But there's a chance Gibson is back.
-
Jordan Martinook CAR LWHurricanes' Jordan Martinook: Goal in return from injury
41m agoMartinook (lower body) scored a goal in a 5-2 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.
Martinook returned to action Saturday after missing three games to injury. He played 15:03 and put up one shot and three hits. Martinook has five goals, seven assists, 59 hits, 46 shots and 21 blocks in 34 games this season in a bottom-six role.
-
Eric Robinson CAR LWHurricanes' Eric Robinson: Four-game, four-point streak
1h agoRobinson scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over Detroit.
Robinson had five shots. The journeyman winger is on a four-game, four-point streak (three goals, one assist), and it includes a three-game goal streak. It won't last, especially with a shooting rate that's almost double (20.9) his career average of 10.8. This is a great run, but Robinson remains more valuable on the ice than in the fantasy arena.
