Josh Malone catches two passes in Bengals’ loss.

Malone gained nine yards on his two receptions. The rookie receiver is a very good dynasty league hold, but he’s not a recommended option in fantasy lineups yet.

Joe Mixon (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 14.

The rookie running back just suffered his concussion on Monday night and hadn’t made any apparent progress in concussion protocol as of yesterday, so this isn’t a surprise. Giovani Bernard will handle most of the work in Cincinnati’s backfield against the Bears, and he’ll be a solid fantasy option this week. Hopefully Mixon is feeling better soon. There’s probably a good chance he’ll be back for Week 15.

Tyler Boyd catches two passes against the Steelers.

The second-year receiver was targeted three times in the loss, gained 15 yards on his two receptions. Boyd did have a drop in the game, and his role simply isn’t big enough to be a viable fantasy option in standard leagues.

Adrian Peterson (neck) is unlikely to play on Sunday, according to Josina Anderson.

We could have told you that, but we’re just passing along what Anderson is reporting. Peterson hasn’t practiced in a couple weeks, and it’d be a surprise if he was out there on Sunday for a Cardinals team that’s basically out of playoff contention in a stacked NFC.

Tyler Kroft catches two passes in Week 13.

Kroft gained 30 yards on his two receptions against the Steelers. You’re probably going to need a touchdown if you insert Kroft into your fantasy lineup right now.

Rashad Jennings has announced his retirement from the NFL.

The announcement, which can be watched in the link below, makes it clear that Jennings is at peace with his decision to retire from the NFL. Jennings had a very solid seven seasons in the NFL, carrying 930 times for 3,772 rushing yards (4.1 yards per carry) and 23 rushing touchdowns along with 191 receptions for 1,469 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns. Jennings has already won “Dancing with the Stars”, and it sounds like he won’t have any trouble adjusting to life off the football field. We wish him the best of luck moving forward in life.

Brandon Lafell gets seven targets against Pittsburgh.

Lafell caught four passes for 55 yards in the Week 13 loss, and he had a long of 27 yards in the game. The veteran receiver did have an uncharacteristic drop late in the game, and it snapped what was the current longest streak in the NFL without a drop. Lafell is a very good part of the offense for the Bengals, but he’s not a recommended fantasy option right now.
