Alvin Kamara gets going in Saints’ win.

Kamara carried 11 times for 80 yards and two touchdowns along with six receptions for 30 yards in a Week 16 win over the Titans. The scores were Kamara’s first since Week 3, and one came at the goal line where he got the nod over Latavius Murray. Kamara looked as good as he’s looked in a while, and the dynamic running back has probably taken some time to get over his high-ankle sprain that kept him out a couple of games earlier in the year. The third-year running back will obviously be in the RB1 mix for Week 17 against the Panthers.

Michael Thomas sets single-season reception record in Week 16.

Thomas caught 12 passes for 136 yards and a touchdown against the Titans, breaking Marvin Harrison’s single-season reception record with 144 on the year through 15 games. The record-breaker was on a diving attempt toward the end zone, but he was just short of the goal line; then, he scored a couple of plays later on a crossing route anyway. Thomas now has 145 catches this season, with a good chance to become the first player to hit the 150-mark in Week 17 versus the Panthers.

Will Fuller (groin) is out for Week 17.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport says Fuller is dealing with a three-week injury and will be out next week (not surprising considering the Texans clinched the AFC South) and the first playoff game, with an “outside” chance of being ready for Houston’s second playoff game if they get to the Divisional Round. Fuller’s season ends with 49 receptions for 670 yards and three touchdowns in ten games. The speedy receiver’s big problem continues to be staying healthy.

C.J. Prosise (arm) ruled out for Week 17.

The Seahawks were killed by injuries at running back today, as Chris Carson (hip pointer) is also out for the regular season finale next week against the 49ers, and both players might join Rashaad Penny in being done for the year. Prosise’s season ends with 19 carries for 58 yards and a touchdown along with ten receptions for 76 yards in eight games.

Chris Carson (hip) will miss Week 17.

Carson went down today against the Cardinals, and head coach Pete Carroll has already ruled him out for the finale. Of course, Rashaad Penny (knee) is already one IR and C.J. Prosise (arm) also was injured today, so Seattle will likely need to make a move at the position. Despite fumbling issues, Carson’s season ends with 270 carries, 1,190 yards, and seven rushing touchdowns with a 36/246/2 line through the air. Although the Seahawks may go with more of an even timeshare in 2020, Carson should be drafted as an upside RB2 on a run-first offense.

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (foot) is questionable to return for the Eagles.

It seems Arcega-Whiteside might have been dealing with this for a bit throughout the afternoon now. We’ll update you when more information becomes available on the rookie receiver’s status.

LeSean McCoy is inactive for Sunday night.

With Damien Williams back in the lineup for Kansas City, McCoy is a healthy scratch again. The veteran running back does not need to be held in any redraft leagues playing in Week 17.
