Trent Sherfield leads team in receiving as Cardinals fall to 3-10.

Sherfield caught five passes for 77 yards in a 17-3 defeat. It was the best game of the year for Sherfield, but he isn’t a recommended fantasy option.

Doug Baldwin (hip) was limited in today’s practice.

This is a step in the right direction for the veteran receiver, as he’s missed the last four practices. Baldwin is likely headed for a questionable tag when the final Week 15 injury report is released tomorrow.

Phillip Lindsay scores again in Week 14.

Lindsay carried 14 times for 30 yards and a touchdown along with four receptions for 21 yards in the loss to the Niners. San Francisco did a good job of limiting Lindsay throughout the game, but the undrafted rookie was able to make it four straight weeks with a touchdown. He’ll look to keep the streak going and hit 1,000 rushing yards for the season (he’s currently at 967) this Saturday night against the Browns. He’s a solid option in lineups for the second week of the fantasy playoffs.

The Eagles placed Corey Clement (knee) on injured reserve.

Clement’s season isn’t thought to be a long-term thing that will affect his status for the 2019 season, but unfortunately his 2018 season is over. The second-year running back’s year ends with 68 carries for 259 yards and two touchdowns along with 22 receptions for 192 yards in 11 games. We think The Super Bowl LII hero should have been given more opportunities this season especially after injuries hit the backfield, but that just didn’t happen. Clement will likely go borderline undrafted in 2019 fantasy drafts.

J.J. Nelson caught three passes for 43 yards in Sunday’s loss to Detroit.

He also rushed once for a loss of five yards. The speedster had been invisible all year with just four receptions for 21 yards entering the game, so it was at least good to see him get seven targets on Sunday. Still, fantasy owners are obviously looking elsewhere down the stretch.

Kelvin Benjamin is active for the Chiefs.

Benjamin is making his Chiefs debut a week after signing with the team. He’s not a highly-recommended fantasy option for the second week of the fantasy playoffs, as he’s likely to be the No. 4 receiver even with Sammy Watkins (foot) out. Benjamin will likely need a touchdown—and his role might only be in the red zone—to deliver fantasy value this week.

Royce Freeman gets six carries in Week 14.

Freeman gained 36 yards on his six attempts, including a long of 23 yards, against the Niners. The third-round rookie ran the ball better than teammate Phillip Lindsay overall, but Lindsay got the ball into the end zone. Freeman is difficult to trust in fantasy lineups this Saturday night against Cleveland.
