We’ve Victor Antipin Jersey already had some notable pa s-catchersbe ruled out for Week 12 (DJ Chark, John Brown), and several more (Adam Thielen, Julio Jones, Brandon Aiyuk, Hayden Hurst, Jerry Jeudy, Mark Andrews) are dealing with injury i sues and COVID, putting their statuses in question. Fantasy football owners will need updates ahead of their start ’em, sit ’em decisions, and we’ll be here throughout the day on Sunday providing you with the latest.For updates on injured RBs Austin Ekeler, Raheem Mostert, Giovani Bernard, and more, click here; for news on Zach Ertz, go here; for the Week 12 weather forecast, click here. For all the latest fantasy updates, follow uson Twitter .WEEK 12 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | | Is Adam Thielen playing this week?UPDATE:Thielen is officially OUT.ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Friday that Thielen (COVID) is against the Panthers.If Thielen is indeed out, which is looking highly likely, Justin Jefferson would see more targets, but there’s no obvious backup WR who would also get more chances. If anything, Minnesota’s TEs and RBs would likely see more work in Thielen’s absence, giving Kirk Cousins an even lower ceiling than usual.WEEK 12 FANTASY: | | Is Julio Jonesplaying this week?UPDATE 2:Jones is officially OUT.UPDATE:NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday morning that Jones is this week.Jones (hamstring) managed to get in limited practices early in the week, but after a mi sed practice on Friday Patrik Laine Jersey , he’s listed as “” for Sunday’s game against the Raiders.Jones has been dealing with hamstring i sues virtually all season, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him sit out this week. However, it seems clear he wants to play, so we won’t know for sure untilSunday morning. If Jones is out, both Ru sell Gage and Olamide Zaccheaus would have WR3/flex potential in PPR leagues, with Gage having a higher floor and Zacheaus having a higher ceiling.WEEK 12 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | Is Brandon Aiyuk playing this week?UPDATE: Aiyuk is officially OUTLike Thielen, Aiyuk is on the COVID restriction list, and like Thielen, it’s that he’ll Sebastian Aho Jersey suit up in Week 12.Considering the 49ers have a tough matchup with the Rams, it might be for the better that Aiyuk is sitting out. He wouldn’t be much more than a low-end flex, and with Deebo Samuel back, his touches would have been hard to predict. Richie James and Kendrick Bourne will play more with Aiyuk out, but neither is worth a spot in fantasy lineups.WEEK 12 DFS CASH LINEUPS: | IsJerry Jeudyplaying this week?UPDATE:NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday morning that Jeudy is this week.Jeudy (ankle/Achilles’) was limited in practice all week, and despite his “” tag, he’s expected to play on Sunday against the Saints.However, with practice-squad WR Kendall Hinton expected to start at QB for the Broncos after COVID complications wiped out their entire QB room, Jeudy is not a recommended play in any fantasy format. It’s po sible he breaks a big play, but fantasy owners can’t rely on that happening, especially going against a decentSaints defense.WEEK 12 DFS TOURNAMENT LINEUPS: | Is Hayden Hurst playing this week? UPDATE 2:Hurst is officially ACTIVE.UPDATE:ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported late Saturday night that Hurst is this week.Hurst (ankle) mi sed practice on Wednesday and Thursday this week, but he turned in a and is “questionable” for Sunday’s game against the Raiders.Hurst feels like a true game-time decision, but the limited practice is a good sign. If he’s out, Luke Stocker and Jaeden Graham would split TE snaps for the Falcons, but neither is worth trusting in fantasy leagues. Hurst will be a low-end TE1 if he’s active, as Alexei Emelin Jersey he would likely see more targets if Julio Jones (hamstring) is out.MORE WEEK 12 DFS: | | Is Mark Andrews playing this week?UPDATE:Andrews , so he will be out in Weeks 12 and 13.It’s tough to know what to expect from any Ravens’ players since they’ve been away from their facilities all week because of COVID, but Andrews (thigh) is listed as “” for Tuesday’s game.Whether he’s truly a game-time decision is unknown, but given all the other risks a sociated with that game, from the fact Robert Griffin III will be under center to the very real chance it won’t be played at all, Andrews probably isn’t worth holding out hope Matt Benning Jersey for. If you are going to wait out Andrews, then you should have Pittsburgh’s Vance McDonald ready as a desperation pivot (or Eric Ebron, if he’s available), as it’s unclear who Baltimore would play at TE. But, again, you’re still risking the game being postponed again, so the safe play is to find a TE from the Sunday or Monday games.…
