Keith Ford handles 15 touches in win over the Lions.

Ford rushed 14 times for 46 yards, also adding a seven-yard reception. The rookie briefly left the game in the second half, but he returned to help get a win in his NFL debut. Ford probably won’t have much fantasy value next week if one or both of LeSean McCoy (hamstring) and Chris Ivory (shoulder) return.

Odell Beckham Jr. (quad) officially did not practice today.

OBJ remains out of practice and doesn’t look likely to suit up to face the Colts on Sunday. He’d do well to be listed as questionable on the final Week 16 injury report when it’s released sometime tomorrow. Obviously, you shouldn’t count on having Beckham in lineups with fantasy titles on the line.

Josh Allen, Bills win a defensive battle over the Lions, 14-13.

Allen was 13/26 for 204 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions, also adding nine carries for 16 yards and another score. The rushing touchdown was a three-yard scramble to the pylon in the first half, and Allen found Robert Foster for a 42-yard connection in the fourth quarter to put Buffalo ahead. It will be fun to see Allen face Bill Belichick and the Patriots defense for the first time next week, but he might carry more risk than usual as New England comes off two losses in a row.

Josh Gordon has officially been suspended by the NFL.

The NFL’s statement reads: “Effective today, Josh Gordon has been returned to the Reserve/Commissioner Suspended list indefinitely for violating the terms of his conditions reinstatement under the Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.” This is basically banishment, and it’s going to take Gordon proving himself in a big way before Commissioner Goodell thinks of reinstating him again. Earlier, before this suspension was official, the Patriots released a statement reading: “We support Josh Gordon in his continued efforts to focus on his health. His attempt to do so is a private and personal matter, which we intend to respect.” New England opting to release Gordon soon wouldn’t be a surprise.

T.J. Jones catches one pass in Week 15 loss.

It went for five yards. Jones isn’t a recommended fantasy option on a conservative passing attack.

Maurice Harris (concussion) is listed as questionable for Week 16.

Harris must clear concussion protocol in the next couple of days if he’s going to suit up Saturday afternoon against the Titans. We’ll let you know if Harris is active or not at around 3:00 PM ET on Saturday when the actives and inactives are released.

Andy Jones finds the end zone in loss to Buffalo.

Jones caught two passes for nine yards, including a four-yard score in the first half. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere in the fantasy championship.
