Travaris Cadet handles seven touches in loss to the Patriots.

Cadet rushed four times for 22 yards and caught three passes for 19 yards. The receiving back was also the target on a Joe Webb deep ball, but the would-be touchdown was overthrown. Cadet should be on the waiver wire as the fantasy playoffs begin.

Jordan Howard gets 14 touches in Week 13.

Howard had 13 carries for 38 yards and one reception for -5 yards against the 49ers. Chicago didn’t run many plays in this one, so Howard didn’t really get enough opportunities to get going or pop any long runs. His last couple of weeks have been less than ideal, but Howard is too good to leave out of fantasy lineups for the first round of the fantasy playoffs next week.

Matthew Stafford leaves game with hand injury.

It appears Stafford might have a broken hand, but even if he doesn’t his day is almost certainly done. Stafford was 24/29 for 292 yards, one touchdown, one interception, and one fumble lost versus Baltimore, and now we just have to hope that his hand injury isn’t so bad that it knocks him out for the final four games of the season. We should know more within the next day or so.

Josh Ferguson catches three passes in Week 13.

Ferguson gained 16 yards on his three receptions and didn’t have any carries in the game. Ferguson’s role isn’t big enough to be a fantasy option right now.

Corey Davis catches two passes in Week 13.

Davis had only 12 yards against the Texans, and the rookie receiver also had a drop in the flat where it looked like he might’ve had some room to run. Even if Rishard Matthews (hamstring) misses another game, it’s difficult to trust Davis in the first round of the fantasy playoffs next week.

Mitchell Trubisky throws a touchdown against the 49ers.

The Niners ran a lot more plays in this one, as the Bears had only 15 passing attempts and 19 rushes in the game. Trubisky did play efficiently, though, going 12/15 for 102 and a touchdown while adding four carries for 19 yards on the ground. His athleticism remains evident, and these final four games of 2017 will hopefully help him carry momentum into his second season.

Tyrod Taylor gets carted off against the Patriots.

Taylor suffered a leg injury on the first snap of the game, and he had it banged up even more just now in the third quarter and is currently getting carted to the locker room. He went to the sideline under his own power and didn’t appear to be hurting too much, but hopefully the injury isn’t too bad—though he has been ruled out for the game. Taylor was 9/18 for 65 yards and an interception along with three carries for 32 yards before leaving, and rookie Nathan Peterman will enter the game for Buffalo.
