Trevor Siemian (left shoulder) has been ruled out against the Colts.

The injury is officially being called a left shoulder, but it looked like Siemian might’ve hurt his left wrist on the play. Nevertheless, Siemian is done for the day after going 5/9 for 67 yards and one interception—with the pick coming on a throw that he severely underthrew on a ball that should’ve been lofted toward the sideline for Demaryius Thomas. Hopefully we see Siemian again this year, but his season might be over with two games left to go after tonight.

Leonard Fournette (quadricep) is officially inactive.

Reports emerged last night that Fournette was going to be out against the Texans, and now it’s official. Chris Ivory will reportedly start against the Texans, and he’s in the FLEX conversation for Week 15. Fournette should be back next week, but it’s no lock.

Josh Bellamy catches five passes against the Lions.

Bellamy was targeted seven times in the Week 15 loss, gaining 70 yards on his five receptions. He did take a hard hit to the side of the head late in the game, but he appeared to be OK on the bench after heading to the sideline. Bellamy isn’t a recommended fantasy option, but he appears to be one of the top receivers for the Bears right now.

Kelvin Benjamin (knee) is officially questionable for Sunday.

Benjamin was limited in practice all week with the knee issue that’s been nagging him for most of the year, but he’ll probably be out there against the Dolphins. The Bills do play in the early games on Sunday, so we’ll know Benjamin’s status by 11:30 AM ET, but he has a difficult matchup with a Dolphins secondary that’s been playing very well recently.

Brandon Williams gets carted off against the Broncos.

Williams was blocking on a punt early in the second quarter and had head-to-head contact with a Broncos player rushing in on the punt. It didn’t look like that big of a hit, but Williams deals with spinal stenosis. He had actually given up football while at the University of Oregon because of the condition but was able to play again. Williams wasn’t shown giving a thumbs up or anything, but he was starting to sit up a bit before getting taken off on a stretcher. Hopefully this is precautionary more than anything and he’s OK soon.

De’Anthony Thomas catches two passes against the Chargers.

Thomas gained six yards on his two receptions, including a nice catch on third down to get the Chiefs four yards closer for a long field goal. “Black Mamba” isn’t a fantasy option right now, but he’ll contribute for Kansas City when called upon.

Kendall Wright gets 13 targets against the Lions.

Wright worked as Mitchell Trubisky’s number one target for a second-straight week, catching seven passes for 81 yards in the Week 15 loss. Overall, Wright played well, but he did appear to have a chance to at least deflect Trubisky’s first interception of the game, as he started to go up for the high throw and then didn’t (he might’ve though his own guy was behind him). Wright now has 17 receptions for 188 yards over the last two weeks, so he’s looking like an intriguing FLEX option in Week 16—especially in PPR leagues. However, the Bears aren’t likely to throw 46 times next week versus Cleveland.
