Drew Lock improves to 2-0 as Denver rolls Houston, 38-24.

The Broncos completely dominated on Sunday, and Lock was 22-of-27 for 309 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception in his first career road start. A lot of the damage was done targeting tight ends (including Noah Fant with a 4/113/1 line), and the rookie has clearly sparked Denver’s entire team over the past two games. His biggest test yet will come next week in Kansas City, but Lock is playing with extreme confidence and is at least worth looking at in two-quarterback leagues.

Fantasy owners have the full Jameis Winston experience in Week 14.

In a 38-35 victory over the Colts, Winston completed 33-of-45 passes for 456 yards, four touchdowns, and three interceptions while also adding five yards and a touchdown on the ground. Tampa Bay’s quarterback missed some time to start the second half with a broken bone in his hand, but he quickly returned (and fantasy owners having to wonder if he was benched despite the big statistics just shows the rollercoaster play from Winston). Two of the interceptions were thrown right to a defender, but those who started Jameis certainly won’t complain with the end result. Even without Mike Evans (hamstring), Winston should be a surefire QB1 next week in Detroit.

Rashaad Penny has an ACL sprain

The injury is being called a sprain, but it sounds like a bad one, according to Seahawks head coach Pete  Carroll, who says it is a “significant” sprain. Penny will undergo more testing, but his season certainly appears to be in danger. We just have to hope the damage is not as bad as it sounds, but Penny is obviously doubtful for Week 15.

Rashaad Penny (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of tonight.

Penny was initially called questionable with the knee injury, but it’s not a good sign that he’s now been ruled out shortly after. Hopefully Penny isn’t dealing with anything too serious, but we should know more sometime in the next 24 hours. The second-year running back had been playing really well recently, so this is a big loss for the Seahawks.

Rashaad Penny (knee) is officially questionable to return for Seattle.

On the opening drive of the game, Penny went down holding his knee after a nice gain on a screen pass. Penny appeared to be in obvious pain, but the NBC broadcast did not show how he got over to the sideline. Penny appeared to be in fine spirits on the bench, and we’ll update you when more information becomes available.

Vance McDonald (concussion) is out for the rest of today.

Despite the best possible matchup on paper, McDonald has just one reception for three yards before leaving today’s game against the Cardinals. The bigger concern is obviously the concussion for McDonald, and hopefully he’s feeling better soon.

Derrius Guice is thought to have a sprained MCL, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

This would probably be good news for Guice, but this is just based on the initial diagnosis. The second-year running back will go through more testing, but hopefully this is not a long-term knee issue that will require surgery. More information on Guice (likely with a recovery timeline) should become available in the next day or so.
