Matthew Stafford (back) is listed as questionable for Week 14.

Stafford, who has made 124 consecutive starts, is likely to play on Sunday against the Cardinals, but his questionable destination is worth noting. The game isn’t until late afternoon on Sunday so his status might not be 100% until after 1:00 PM ET games have kicked off, but ideally you’ll have a stronger fantasy option in the fantasy playoffs.

Ezekiel Eliott leaves game with apparent injury.

It looks like a left-arm injury for Elliott, though there’s a chance it’s some type of head injury, as it occurred when he lowered his head while running down the sideline. Elliott is currently getting looked at by trainers, and we’ll update you as more information becomes available.

Melvin Gordon has been ruled out for Week 14.

It was a stretch to expect Gordon to play just a couple weeks removed from his MCL injury, but now the attention turns to next Thursday night. Gordon is thought to be close to a return and is a quick healer, so there’s a realistic chance he can play in a huge matchup potentially with first-place in the AFC West on the line. Fantasy owners would certainly be thrilled to get their elite RB1 back for the second week of the fantasy playoffs. This week, both Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson are solid fantasy options against a Bengals team that’s given up the most fantasy points to opposing running backs.

Ben Roethlisberger is not in for the Steelers to start the second half.

The Steelers initially gave no information but they now say Roethlisberger is being evaluated for a rib injury. He’s officially questionable to return against the Raiders. Joshua Dobbs is currently in the game for Pittsburgh, and we’ll update you as more information becomes available.

Kerryon Johnson (knee) has been ruled out for Week 14.

This was fully expected. Johnson wasn’t able to practice today again, indicating his Week 15 status might not be looking good. The rookie running back remains week-to-week, but hopefully he can get back on the field soon.

Corey Clement (knee) has been ruled out for the Eagles.

This isn’t surprising after Clement had his knee badly twisted in the first half. Now we just have to hope the second-year running back isn’t out for much longer than today, but there’s a chance it’s a serious injury. Clement had one carry for -4 yards before leaving.

Mitchell Trubisky is off the Week 14 injury report.

Trubisky is good to go for Sunday night against the Rams after missing the last two games with his right throwing shoulder injury. He might not be quite 100%, but it’s close enough otherwise the Bears would not be putting him out there. As usual, Trubisky offers upside in fantasy lineups given his dual-threat ability, but there are probably better QB1 options out there for the first week of the fantasy playoffs.
