Noah Fant (illness) is officially questionable to return for the Broncos.

It’s still early in the game, so hopefully Fant is feeling better and can return to the game soon. We’ll update you when more information becomes available on his status.

Leonard Fournette is inactive for Week 14.

Fournette appears to be a healthy scratch coming off the bye, so it’ll be the Ronald Jones show both today against the Vikings and perhaps for the rest of the season. Fournette would have upside if Jones were to miss time, but he’s not a must-hold on redraft teams.

Irv Smith Jr. (back) is officially active for Week 14.

Smith is expected to be limited in his return to the lineup, so he’s difficult to trust in the first week of the fantasy playoffs. Still, his presence will be a boost for the Vikings in real life with Kyle Rudolph (foot) now out at tight end.

Kyle Rudolph (foot) is officially inactive for the Vikings.

Rudolph was listed as doubtful entering the weekend, so this was the expectation. Irv Smith Jr. (back) is in the lineup for Minnesota at least, but hopefully Rudolph can return soon so the Vikings have both of their top tight ends on offense.

Brandin Cooks (foot/neck) is inactive for Week 14.

While Cooks was listed as questionable on Friday, that wasn’t anything unusual for the veteran receiver, and it seemed like he would be OK. However, Cooks will not play today against the Bears, putting Deshaun Watson down another weapon. Hopefully Cooks can get closer to full strength and get back out there next week.

The Packers officially activated A.J Dillon from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

This was the expectation from earlier this week. Dillon was hit pretty hard by the virus, missing a few weeks. It’s good to see the rookie running back feeling better and back with his teammates.

The Chargers have activated Justin Jackson (knee) from injured reserve.

With everyone now healthy, the Los Angeles backfield is extremely crowded, so Austin Ekeler is probably the only guy you can feel confident about. Jackson could be anywhere from the No. 2 back to a healthy scratch tomorrow versus Atlanta.
