Giovani Bernard gets 17 touches in Week 14.

Bernard topped both 60 yards rushing and 60 yards receiving against the Bears, carrying 11 times for 62 yards while adding six receptions for a team-high 68 yards. If Joe Mixon remains out with a concussion in Week 15, Bernard would remain a decent option in fantasy lineups with a tough matchup against Minnesota.

Latavius Murray contained in loss to the Panthers.

Murray rushed nine times for 14 yards and caught two passes for six yards. Minnesota was without their standout rookie center Pat Elflein and right tackle Mike Remmers against one of the league’s best defenses, and it caused Murray to see heavy penetration in the backfield for most of the day. He should bounce back as an RB1/RB2 play for Week 15 against a Bengals team that just got dominated by Jordan Howard.

Jerick McKinnon handles nine touches in Week 14 loss.

McKinnon rushed seven times for 46 yards and caught two passes for nine yards. The dynamic back has settled in behind Latavius Murray as a change-of-pace option, but despite two fewer touches, he was able to out-gain him on Sunday. It was still a disappointing performance for those who relied on him in the fantasy playoffs, but McKinnon remains a FLEX play with a boost in PPR leagues when Minnesota takes on Cincinnati in Week 15.

Case Keenum, Vikings fall to 10-3 after near comeback win over Carolina.

Keenum was 27/44 for 280 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions. He also rushed five times for 40 yards. Minnesota’s starter threw an interception on the first drive of the game, but he was great besides that. Keenum continued to show great pocket presence and poise when defenders got close, but he and the Vikings weren’t helped by a big drop from Kyle Rudolph on a big gain and two near catches by Adam Thielen in the end zone to force them to settle for a short field goal. Overall, it was another strong performance by Keenum, and he should be a streaming option in Week 15 against the Bengals.

Aaron Jones gets four carries in Week 14.

Jones had -2 yards on his four attempts, and he didn’t receive any work in the passing game. Meanwhile, teammate Jamaal Williams had 22 touches for 118 total yards and two touchdowns in the game and appears to be the clear lead man in Green Bay’s backfield. Jones doesn’t need to be owned in standard leagues right now.

Jamaal Williams scores twice in Packers’ win.

Williams again worked as the clear leader in Green Bay’s backfield, carrying 15 times for 49 yards and a touchdown along with seven receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown through the air against the Browns. The first score was early in the game when Williams was wide open and Brett Hundley found him for 30 yards. The second was on a carry at the goal line in the fourth quarter. Aaron Rodgers is expected to return next week, which should give Williams more scoring opportunities. It looks like the rookie has a chance to seize the starting role heading into 2018, too. Even with a difficult matchup against the Panthers in Week 15, Williams is a solid option in fantasy lineups.

Brett Hundley tosses three touchdowns in Packers’ win over the Browns.

Down 21-7, Hundley led Green Bay to a 14-point fourth quarter and eventual game-winning touchdown in overtime to get the Packers to 7-6 with a very real chance at the playoffs. Overall, Hundley was 35/46 for 265 yards and three touchdowns in the game, along with seven carries for 31 rushing yards, as he flashed the ability that makes the Packers confident with him as their backup quarterback. The first touchdown was a 30-yarder to a wide-open Jamaal Williams. The second was to Davante Adams on a back-shoulder type of fade. And the third was the game-winner in overtime to Adams on a quick screen that Adams took 25 yards to the house. The hope is that Aaron Rodgers will be back next week for Green Bay, but Hundley did an admirable job with six touchdowns and one interception over his last three games.
