Chris Ivory (shoulder) was limited in today’s practice.

Ivory was able to be a full participant in practice last week, but he didn’t play on Sunday. His Week 16 status is up in the air, but we’ll monitor his practice status throughout the week.

Matthew Stafford, Lions lose to the Bills, 14-13.

Stafford was 22/29 for 208 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. All 13 points for the Lions came in the first half, but Buffalo was able to win a defensive battle with a touchdown in the fourth quarter. Almost all of Stafford’s damage came to Kenny Golladay (146 yards), and Detroit’s franchise quarterback shouldn’t be in lineups next week against Minnesota.

LeSean McCoy (hamstring) was limited in today’s practice.

This is a fine start to the week for McCoy, who is day-to-day. Ideally, he’ll get up to a full practice tomorrow or Friday.

Andrew Luck plays well in Colts’ Week 15 victory.

Luck was 16/27 for 192 yards along with six carries for 20 yards against the Cowboys. Luck didn’t throw any touchdowns for the second time in three weeks, but he played an efficient game while complimenting a successful run-heavy attack led by Marlon Mack (139 yards, two touchdowns). Also, there were some drops by Luck’s receivers in the game. While this wasn’t ideal for fantasy owners that started him in a tough matchup in the playoffs, those still alive shouldn’t be afraid to roll Luck out there as a QB1 next week against the Giants.

UPDATE: The Raiders have signed Nathan Peterman to the practice squad.

This is instead of signing him to the 53-man roster. It doesn’t matter much, as Derek Carr and A.J. McCarron are Oakland’s top two quarterbacks. Peterman will look to develop on the practice squad under the coaching of Jon Gruden.

Michael Gallup did not catch a pass in Week 15.

Gallup has some weekly boom potential as a big-play threat for the Cowboys, but he’s difficult to trust in fantasy lineups. Next week against the Bucs might not be a bad spot to give him a shot, though.

The Raiders are signing Nathan Peterman, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The 2017 fifth-round pick of the Bills was without a team for over a month, but he’s back in a good spot with one of the league’s best quarterback coaches in Jon Gruden. Oakland’s head coach got a chance to host Peterman for his “Gruden’s QB Camp” on ESPN leading up to the 2017 draft, and he likes the former Pitt quarterback. Peterman will look to develop with the Raiders, but he’s obviously not a fantasy option right now.
