Nelson Agholor (head) is officially questionable to return.

Agholor made a great catch over the middle for a first down but took a helmet directly to the facemask (which was somehow not called as a targeting penalty). He’s headed to the locker room and might have a tough time returning to the Week 15 matchup at Indy. Agholor has had a few very fantastic catches tonight where he’s shown off strong hands in tight coverage. Hopefully the dynamic receiver is feeling OK soon.

Sammy Watkins placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Watkins will be out for tomorrow’s game against Green Bay, and hopefully we don’t have any more players that text positive tomorrow before new testing rules are implemented to start next week. Rashod Bateman should be boosted as a FLEX, but he’ll likely be catching passes from Tyler Huntley.

Darrell Henderson Jr. taken off reserve/COVID-19 list.

Henderson is back after missing Week 14 with COVID, and he should be ready for Tuesday evening versus the Seahawks. Now the concern for fantasy owners thinking about using Henderson in the first week of the fantasy playoffs as his role, as Sony Michel may have taken hold of the lead back job in Los Angeles. Still, Henderson will likely at least be a strong change-of-pace option for the Rams, assuming his quad injury is healed.

Odell Beckham Jr. has been cleared from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Beckham said that he tested negative yesterday, and today a second consecutive negative test has him cleared for Week 15. OBJ looks like he would have been good to go for the game if it remaining tomorrow, but we’ll see him out there on Tuesday night versus the Seahawks.

Breshad Perriman is being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Perriman is out for tomorrow night’s Week 15 matchup against the Saints. The NFL and NFLPA is loosening their COVID testing rules for vaccinated players for next week, so hopefully this is among the final players from this huge chunk of positives over the past week that’ll miss time.

Adam Thielen is officially questionable for Week 15.

Thielen is set to be a gametime decision against the Bears on Monday night as he looks to get back on the field from his high-ankle sprain. So, if you’re planning to use Thielen in fantasy lineups, just be sure to have a backup plan in place from either Monday or Tuesday.

Adam Trautman (knee) is being activated from injured reserve, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

Trautman will return on Sunday night in a huge game versus Tampa Bay, and he should immediately be a streaming option despite a more run-heavy offense with Taysom Hill under center. This news is a downgrade for Juwan Johnson in a good matchup.
