Marqise Lee (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of the game against Houston.

Lee was injured early in the game, and he’s finally been ruled out late in the third quarter. He reportedly couldn’t put any pressure on the ankle, so hopefully the injury isn’t as bad as it sounds. Lee didn’t have any receptions before leaving. Consider him on the doubtful side of things for Week 16, as the Jags might have an eye on having him healthy for the playoffs.

Chris Hogan (shoulder) is officially inactive for Week 15.

Reports emerged this morning stating that Hogan would not play against the Steelers, and now it’s official. His presence on the outside will certainly be missed, but the Patriots have been without him for four of the last five games. Kenny Britt is officially active in his first game with New England, and he could play a role, particularly in the red zone. Hopefully Hogan can get back to 100% soon.

Brice Butler (foot) has been downgraded to out for tomorrow night.

Butler wasn’t a fantasy option in standard-sized leagues, but his big-play presence on the outside will be missed by the Cowboys.

Jermaine Gresham (illness) has been ruled out for Week 15.

Gresham is dealing with an illness that’s bad enough to keep him out tomorrow against the Redskins. Ricky Seals-Jones is a very appealing streaming option this week, and he’s in TE1 consideration against a Redskins team that isn’t great against opposing tight ends.

Kenny Britt is active for Week 15.

Despite just arriving with the team during the week, Britt is active and will make his Patriot debut. Chris Hogan is inactive while dealing with his shoulder injury, so that probably went into the decision to make Britt active. Look for him to have an immediate role in the red zone, but Britt isn’t a recommended fantasy option.

JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) is officially active against the Patriots.

There was slight concern after Smith-Schuster already missed Week 12 with the hamstring issue, but the rookie receiver will officially be out there in his return from a one-game suspension. If the Patriots attempt to take away Antonio Brown and/or Le’Veon Bell, it might leave some big-time opportunities for Smith-Schuster. JuJu is a good option in fantasy lineups with fantasy championship appearances on the line.

Tevin Coleman (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 15.

The Falcons play on Monday night against Tampa Bay, and Coleman hasn’t made enough progress through concussion protocol and the Falcons have went ahead and ruled him out. Coleman suffered the concussion in Week 14’s Thursday night win over the Saints, so this isn’t a great sign. But hopefully Coleman is feeling OK and is able to get back out there for Week 16. Teammate Devonta Freeman should be a lock for around 20+ touches this week versus the Buccaneers, and he’s an excellent RB1 for the matchup.
