2025 NFL Preseason: Week 3 DFS Lineup Log

Taysom Hill is expected to undergo foot surgery.

Hill suffered a Lisfranc injury on Sunday after dealing with a foot issue for most of the season, and it will unfortunately lead to a chuck of offseason time missed as he recovers. New Orleans will be a team many connect quarterbacks to this offseason, but Hill is notably 7-2 as a starter over the past two seasons.

Joe Mixon has been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Mixon will be good to go on Saturday for Cincinnati’s playoff matchup versus Las Vegas, and he should be fed—including as a pass-catcher—if the Bengals are going to make a run this month. The star runner won’t be in danger of missing time due to COVID-19 for the remainder of the season.

Darren Waller (knee) is officially active for Week 18.

Waller hasn’t played since Thanksgiving, but Las Vegas has been able to win three games in a row—setting them up to make the playoffs with a victory over the Chargers. The superstar tight end practiced in a limited capacity all week, so we’ll see if he has a full allotment of snaps; even at less than 100%, Waller’s presence would take the pressure off Josh Jacobs, Hunter Renfrow, and the rest of the offense.

Josh Jacobs (ribs) is officially active for Sunday Night Football.

Jacobs was injured in last week’s win, but the expectation had been that he’d play tonight, and that will be the case. Peyton Barber might again see a decent amount of playing time, though Jacobs surely wants to tough it out as best he can to help get Las Vegas into the postseason. Jacobs was limited to 40 yards on 13 carries in the first matchup against the Chargers.

Taysom Hill is heading to the locker room.

Hill has his shoe off and appears to be dealing with a potentially serious foot injury, so we’d be surprised if he returned to the Week 18 matchup at Atlanta. Hill had been playing well and is giving the Saints a shot to make the postseason, so this is really unfortunate. Trevor Siemian is now in the game for the Saints.
