Washington has benched Dwayne Haskins.

Taylor Heinicke is entering the game for Washington down two touchdowns to the Panthers in the fourth quarter. Haskins simply did not play well at all today in a game where he really needed to following a major off-field mishap during the week. Before leaving, Haskins was 14/28 for 154 yards and two interception. We’ll see what happens, but Haskins may need a fresh start to jumpstart his career.

T.J. Yeldon has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

The Bills have announced that Yeldon has tested positive for the virus. He is obviously out for Monday night against the Patriots, and now we have to hope more players aren’t in jeopardy of missing the Week 16 contest. Hopefully Yeldon is feeling better soon.

J.K. Dobbins (chest) is questionable to return for the Ravens.

The Ravens are up by 21 points in the fourth quarter, so Baltimore might ultimately play things safe and leave Dobbins out for the rest of today’s game. Before leaving, the rookie running back had 11 carries for 77 yards and one touchdown.

Terry McLaurin (ankle) is officially inactive against the Panthers.

McLaurin was listed as doubtful on the final Week 16 injury report, so he was expected to be out for Washington. The Football Team is also down quarterback Alex Smith (calf).

Alex Smith (calf) is officially inactive for Washington.

Optimism regarding Smith’s status faded late in the week, and he’ll miss his second consecutive game. Dwayne Haskins will again start for Washington as they look to clinch the NFC East.

Antonio Gibson (toe) is officially active for Week 16.

After missing the past two games with the toe injury suffered in Week 13, Gibson is back and is expected to get a heavy workload versus the Panthers as Washington looks to clinch the NFC East today. Gibson should be in fantasy lineups.

Keenan Allen (hamstring) is officially inactive for the Chargers.

Allen tried to push through the hamstring injury a couple of Thursdays ago before ultimately sitting most of the game, and now he’s out for Week 16. Justin Herbert will also be down Hunter Henry (reserve/COVID-19), but he’s shown the ability to spread the ball around and has had success targeting just about everyone in the LA offense.
