Lamar Jackson BAL QB
Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Comes up short in Pittsburgh
1m agoJackson completed 16 of 33 passes for 207 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Steelers. He added 46 rushing yards on four carries.
The Ravens arguably played well enough to win, but Justin Tucker missed two early field goals and Jackson wasn't able to hit on a two-point conversion attempt after leading a TD drive inside the final four minutes of the fourth quarter. It was the first time since Week 6 that Jackson had failed to produce multiple touchdowns, but a rebound effort in Week 12 isn't guaranteed, as he'll be taking on a stingy Chargers defense in the Harbaugh Bowl.
-
Matt Gay IND K
Colts' Matt Gay: Nails three field goals in win
5m agoGay went three-for-three on field-goal attempts while making his only extra-point try in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Jets.
Gay was once again able to make multiple field goals in Week 11, marking the eighth consecutive contest that he's done so. The kicker most notably made a 56-yarder Sunday and he's now made 19 of 22 field-goal tries this season, including four makes from over 50 yards.
-
Juwan Johnson NO TE
Saints' Juwan Johnson: Finds end zone Sunday
9m agoJohnson caught all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.
The tight end was on the other end of a one-yard TD toss form Derek Carr in the fourth quarter. It's Johnson's second score of the season, but his first since the Saints' season opener, and he has yet to reach 50 receiving yards in a game this season. Johnson will remain a TD-dependent fantasy option on the other side of New Orleans' Week 12 bye.
-
Marquez Valdes-Scantling NO WR
Saints' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Another long TD in Sunday's win
11m agoValdes-Scantling caught two of four targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.
For the second straight week, Valdes-Scantling and Derek Carr hooked up for a long TD -- this one a 71-yarder in the second quarter -- but the wideout did most of the work this time, taking a short pass over the middle and racing more than 60 yards to paydirt. The four targets were Valdes-Scantling's highest volume in three games since joining New Orleans, but he's posted a mammoth 6-201-3 line on his meager eight looks. He'll try not to cool down during the Saints' Week 12 bye.
-
Nick Bosa SF DE
49ers' Nick Bosa: Questionable to return Sunday
12m agoBosa (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.
Bosa reached Geno Smith for a sack early in the third quarter, but he appeared to be in too much pain to celebrate according to Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. The defensive lineman received treatment on his left hip while the Seahawks continued their drive, but his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air.
-
Taysom Hill NO TE
Saints' Taysom Hill: Massive day on ground
18m agoHill carried the ball seven times for 138 yards and three touchdowns and caught eight of 10 targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns. He also completed one of two passes for 18 yards with an interception, and returned one kickoff for 42 yards.
The 34-year-old lived up to his Swiss army knife reputation as he put together a career-best performance on the ground. Hill scored a 10-yard TD in the first quarter before putting the game away in the fourth, galloping for a 33-yard score early in the final frame and a 75-yard touchdown with less than three minutes left. Hill has six rushing TDs on the season, two short of his career high, and he figures to be heavily involved in the offense on the other side of the Saints' Week 12 bye.
-
Lamar Jackson BAL QB
Ravens' Lamar Jackson: Comes up short in Pittsburgh
1m agoJackson completed 16 of 33 passes for 207 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Steelers. He added 46 rushing yards on four carries.
The Ravens arguably played well enough to win, but Justin Tucker missed two early field goals and Jackson wasn't able to hit on a two-point conversion attempt after leading a TD drive inside the final four minutes of the fourth quarter. It was the first time since Week 6 that Jackson had failed to produce multiple touchdowns, but a rebound effort in Week 12 isn't guaranteed, as he'll be taking on a stingy Chargers defense in the Harbaugh Bowl.
-
Derek Carr NO QB
Saints' Derek Carr: Two TDs in win over Cleveland
26m agoCarr completed 21 of 27 passes for 248 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns. He added eight yards on his only carry.
The veteran QB found Marquez Valdes-Scantling for another long touchdown, this one a 71-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter, and Carr also hit Juwan Johnson for a one-yard score in the fourth as the Saints put the game away. Carr has been efficient since returning from an oblique strain, posting a 66.3 percent completion rate, 5:0 TD:INT and 9.1 YPA in three games, and even with both Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) on IR he's stayed productive heading into New Orleans' Week 12 bye.
-
Drake Maye NE QB
Patriots' Drake Maye: Two TDs, two turnovers in loss
41m agoMaye completed 30 of 40 passes for 282 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams. He also rushed three times for 27 yards and lost a fumble.
Maye threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Kendrick Bourne in the first quarter and a four-yard touchdown pass to offensive lineman Vederian Lowe in the fourth. This was the third time in six starts that Maye mustered multiple touchdown passes, but the lack of talent around him continues to limit Maye's fantasy upside as he adjusts to the NFL. The third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft has much more value in dynasty and keeper formats than redraft leagues considering he has as many turnovers as touchdown passes (nine), and Maye's fantasy upside will be limited in a Week 12 matchup against a stingy Dolphins secondary.
-
Mac Jones JAC QB
Jaguars' Mac Jones: Another forgettable spot start
1h agoJones completed 17 of 29 passes for 138 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while adding two rushes for seven yards in the Jaguars' 52-6 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Making his second straight spot start for Trevor Lawrence (shoulder), Jones was essentially as ineffective as he had been in Week 10 against the Vikings, with the exception being he threw one fewer interception. Otherwise, the 2021 first-round pick was completely incapable of helping the Jaguars keep up with a juggernaut of a Lions offense that only failed to score on a meaningless end-of-game drive. Jones unsurprisingly focused most of his attention on Brian Thomas and Evan Engram, but he figures to revert to a backup role for a Week 13 home matchup against the Texans on Sunday, Dec. 1 since Lawrence will likely have enough time to get healthy over the Week 12 bye.
-
Jameis Winston CLE QB
Browns' Jameis Winston: Fires up nearly 400 yards in loss
1h agoWinston completed 30 of 46 passes for 395 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints. He added eight rushing yards on his only carry.
The veteran quarterback put together his best performance since taking over the Browns' starting job, but it went for naught as the Cleveland run defense couldn't figure out how to stop Taysom Hill. Winston found Jerry Jeudy for an 89-yard catch-and-run late in the first quarter before hitting Elijah Moore for a 30-yard score in the third, and his 395 yards were his highest single-game total since the 2019 season, when he reached 400 yards on three separate occasions en route to the league passing-yards crown. There was some question whether Winston would keep the starting gig after getting picked off three times by the Chargers in Week 9, but there should be no such discussion heading into a Week 12 clash with the Steelers.
-
Aaron Rodgers NYJ QB
Jets' Aaron Rodgers: Fewer than 200 yards again
1h agoRodgers completed 22 of 29 passes for 184 yards and two touchdowns while rushing once for seven yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Colts.
The Jets didn't pick up a first down until after the two-minute warning in the first half, but they finally showed some life on their last drive before halftime, which Rodgers capped with a 29-yard touchdown pass to Breece Hall. Rodgers added an 11-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Yeboah to put the Jets up 24-16 in the fourth quarter, but the Colts responded with a 12-3 run. Rodgers had a chance to save the day after taking over with 46 seconds remaining and no timeouts, but he proceeded to fumble the ball and then take a sack within a three-play span as time ran out on the Jets and they fell to 3-8 heading into their Week 12 bye.
-
Alvin Kamara NO RB
Saints' Alvin Kamara: Takes back seat to Taysom
24m agoKamara carried the ball 16 times for 67 yards and caught all four of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.
The Saints' ground game dominated, but it wasn't Kamara leading the way as instead Taysom Hill erupted for 138 rushing yards and three TDs. It's the first time since Week 7 that Kamara hasn't reached 100 scrimmage yards, but his TD drought stands at five games. He'll get a chance to recharge his batteries during a Week 12 bye.
-
Rhamondre Stevenson NE RB
Patriots' Rhamondre Stevenson: Gets 24 touches in Week 11
39m agoStevenson rushed 20 times for 73 yards and caught all four of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams.
Stevenson surpassed 70 rushing yards for the second consecutive game and the fifth time in 10 appearances this season. He isn't much of a contributor in the passing game, but Stevenson usually gets hefty workloads on the ground as long as the 3-8 Patriots aren't getting blown out, as this was the fifth time he recorded at least 20 rushing attempts in a game this season. Stevenson should remain heavily involved in Week 12 against a Dolphins defense that's been more vulnerable on the ground than through the air.
-
David Montgomery DET RB
Lions' David Montgomery: Two more touchdowns in win
40m agoMontgomery rushed 15 times for 75 yards and two touchdowns and brought in all three targets for 20 yards in the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Montgomery once again found himself in the end zone in the Lions' lopsided win, making multiple trips via his two- and six-yard runs in the first half. The veteran back was also more involved than usual as a receiver, with his three receptions tying for his second-highest figure of the season in that category. Montgomery's ultra-reliable red-zone role will keep him as a highly viable fantasy asset in all formats heading into a Week 12 road matchup against the Colts.
-
Jahmyr Gibbs DET RB
Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs: Rushing TD in efficient performance
1h agoGibbs rushed 11 times for 69 yards and a touchdown and brought in his only target for a 54-yard catch in the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Gibbs logged four fewer carries than backfield mate David Montgomery but gained just six less yards, and he finished third on the Lions in receiving yards thanks to a career-long 54-yard reception. Gibbs also recorded his fifth rushing touchdown in the last five games on a one-yard run early in the second quarter, making it yet another rewarding fantasy afternoon for the explosive second-year back. Gibbs next takes aim at a vulnerable Colts defense in a Week 12 road matchup next Sunday.
-
Nick Chubb CLE RB
Browns' Nick Chubb: Modest numbers again in Week 11
1h agoChubb carried the ball 11 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints.
The game didn't get away from the Browns until the fourth quarter, but Chubb still failed to get a big workload, even coming off a bye and facing what has been a vulnerable New Orleans run defense this season. Cleveland may simply no longer view Chubb as a viable bell cow after last year's serious knee injury, so while he should remain at the top of the depth chart ahead of the likes of Jerome Ford, his days of seeing 20-plus touches on a consistent basis may be over. Chubb isn't likely to break out in Week 12 against the Steelers, a team he's only scored two rushing touchdowns against in 10 career meetings.
-
D'Andre Swift CHI RB
Bears' D'Andre Swift: Garners 84 total yards in loss
1h agoSwift rushed 14 times for 71 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for 13 yards in the Bears' 20-19 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Swift recorded his fifth rushing touchdown of the season on a game-long 39-yard run late in the third quarter, which also helped him to his highest rushing yardage total in the last three games. The veteran back and first-year Bear does continue ceding red-zone work to Roschon Johnson, which naturally isn't ideal for fantasy purposes, but Swift's big-play ability and clear lead-back role gives him plenty of appeal heading into a Week 12 home divisional showdown against the Vikings.
-
Marquez Valdes-Scantling NO WR
Saints' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Another long TD in Sunday's win
11m agoValdes-Scantling caught two of four targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.
For the second straight week, Valdes-Scantling and Derek Carr hooked up for a long TD -- this one a 71-yarder in the second quarter -- but the wideout did most of the work this time, taking a short pass over the middle and racing more than 60 yards to paydirt. The four targets were Valdes-Scantling's highest volume in three games since joining New Orleans, but he's posted a mammoth 6-201-3 line on his meager eight looks. He'll try not to cool down during the Saints' Week 12 bye.
-
Darnell Mooney ATL WR
Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Injures hamstring Sunday
21m agoMooney suffered a hamstring injury during Sunday's game at Denver, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Mooney made a midweek appearance on the Falcons' Week 11 practice report with an Achilles issue but ultimately was cleared Friday. He now is dealing with a separate health concern, and if he's unable to return, he'll finish with two catches (on four targets) for 27 yards.
-
Brian Thomas Jr. JAC WR
Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Paces receivers in loss
34m agoThomas secured five of seven targets for 82 yards in the Jaguars' 52-6 loss to the Lions on Sunday. He also rushed once for four yards.
Thomas actually managed to cobble together a solid performance despite the lopsided nature of the loss and the fact he was catching passes from Mac Jones instead of Trevor Lawrence (shoulder). The rookie wideout tied with Evan Engram for the team lead in receptions and targets while setting the pace in receiving yards, recording his highest totals in all three categories since Week 7. Thomas should have a good chance of having Lawrence back under center in a Week 13 home divisional battle against the Texans following a Week 12 bye.
-
Kendrick Bourne NE WR
Patriots' Kendrick Bourne: Best game of season in Week 11
35m agoBourne caught all five of his targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams.
Bourne had been quiet since returning from a knee injury that cost him the first four weeks of the season, but he bounced back nicely after going without a catch in two of his previous three games. He set a season high in receiving yards and scored his first touchdown of the season on a 10-yard reception in the first quarter. Given the lack of production from New England's wideouts this season, Bourne could have a tough time building on this breakout effort in Week 12 against a tough Dolphins secondary.
-
Elijah Moore CLE WR
Browns' Elijah Moore: Finds end zone in New Orleans
39m agoMoore caught six of eight targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints,
The fourth-year wideout was on the other end of a 30-yard Jameis Winston TD in the third quarter, giving Moore his first score of the season. In three games with Winston as the Browns' starting QB, Moore has racked up a 17-179-1 line on 29 targets, giving him intriguing upside for the rest of 2024. He faces a tougher matchup in Week 12 against the Steelers, however.
-
Jacob Cowing SF WR
49ers' Jacob Cowing: Diagnosed with concussion
45m agoCowing (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against Seattle, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Cowing entered concussion protocols after taking a hit to the head during a punt return in the second quarter. He won't return Sunday, and he'll have to go through the league's five-step concussion protocols in order to play in Week 12 against the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 24.
-
Juwan Johnson NO TE
Saints' Juwan Johnson: Finds end zone Sunday
9m agoJohnson caught all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns.
The tight end was on the other end of a one-yard TD toss form Derek Carr in the fourth quarter. It's Johnson's second score of the season, but his first since the Saints' season opener, and he has yet to reach 50 receiving yards in a game this season. Johnson will remain a TD-dependent fantasy option on the other side of New Orleans' Week 12 bye.
-
Taysom Hill NO TE
Saints' Taysom Hill: Massive day on ground
18m agoHill carried the ball seven times for 138 yards and three touchdowns and caught eight of 10 targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 35-14 win over the Browns. He also completed one of two passes for 18 yards with an interception, and returned one kickoff for 42 yards.
The 34-year-old lived up to his Swiss army knife reputation as he put together a career-best performance on the ground. Hill scored a 10-yard TD in the first quarter before putting the game away in the fourth, galloping for a 33-yard score early in the final frame and a 75-yard touchdown with less than three minutes left. Hill has six rushing TDs on the season, two short of his career high, and he figures to be heavily involved in the offense on the other side of the Saints' Week 12 bye.
-
Josh Oliver MIN TE
Vikings' Josh Oliver: Catches all three targets Sunday
32m agoOliver had three receptions on as many targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Titans.
Oliver turned in his third drop-less game over the last four weeks despite dealing with a wrist injury during practice sessions. The 27-year-old finished ahead of T.J. Hockenson as the team continues to ease the latter back from major knee surgery. Oliver is providing low-end value during the process, making him a fringe option for next Sunday's tilt at Chicago.
-
David Njoku CLE TE
Browns' David Njoku: Nine grabs in Sunday's loss
35m agoNjoku caught all nine of his targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 35-14 loss to the Saints.
The tight end led the Browns in receptions, and Njoku has caught at least five passes in all three games that Jameis Winston has started for Cleveland. He's amassed a 19-171-1 line on 23 targets over that stretch, and the team's closing schedule is a promising one for TE production. Njoku will look to keep rolling in Week 12 against a Steelers defense that just allowed the duo of Isaiah Likely and Mark Andrews to combine for six catches and 97 yards against it.
-
Hunter Henry NE TE
Patriots' Hunter Henry: Six catches in Week 11 loss
37m agoHenry caught six of nine targets for 63 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams.
Henry led the Patriots in targets and catches while finishing seven yards shy of Kendrick Bourne's team-leading total. The veteran tight end has been the most reliable target for rookie Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, due in large part to New England's lack of talent at wide receiver. Henry has averaged 6.8 targets in the first six starts of Maye's career heading into a Week 12 trip to Miami.
-
Shane Zylstra DET TE
Lions' Shane Zylstra: Sustains neck injury vs. Jags
1h agoZylstra exited Sunday's 52-6 win over the Jaguars due to a neck injury.
The injury occurred late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game, and given the blowout, there was no reason to risk having Zylstra on the field. The severity of Zylsta's neck injury may not truly be known until the Lions' first practice Wednesday.
-
Matt Gay IND K
Colts' Matt Gay: Nails three field goals in win
5m agoGay went three-for-three on field-goal attempts while making his only extra-point try in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Jets.
Gay was once again able to make multiple field goals in Week 11, marking the eighth consecutive contest that he's done so. The kicker most notably made a 56-yarder Sunday and he's now made 19 of 22 field-goal tries this season, including four makes from over 50 yards.
-
Harrison Butker KC K
Chiefs' Harrison Butker: Recovering from meniscus trim
6h agoButker is expected to return from injured reserve when first eligible Week 15 against the Browns after undergoing a meniscus trim of his left knee earlier this week, rather than a full meniscus repair, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.
A full repair would have knocked Butker out for the rest of the season, but after requiring the minimally invasive meniscectomy procedure, he'll likely need 3-to-4 weeks to make a full recovery. Since Kansas City has already placed Butker on IR, he'll be required to miss at least four games, but assuming he experiences no setbacks in his recovery from the procedure to his non-kicking knee, he should be ready for action by mid-December. The Chiefs signed Spencer Shrader off the Jets' practice squad to serve as their kicker in the interim.
-
Anders Carlson NYJ K
Jets' Anders Carlson: Set to start Sunday
1d agoCarlson was elevated from the practice squad Saturday.
Thus, Carlson will become the Jets' fourth starting kicker in as many weeks. With Spencer Shrader signed away from the team's practice squad by the Chiefs earlier this week, it stands to reason Carlson could be the team's starter for the immediate future, or at least until Greg Zuerlein (knee) potentially returns off injured reserve. Carlson was erratic in his first year with the Packers, but he was much better in his two starts with the 49ers earlier this year, making all five of his field-goal attempts while missing one of four extra-point attempts.
-
Jake Elliott PHI K
Eagles' Jake Elliott: Misses three kicks Thursday
2d agoElliott went 2-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-3 on extra-point tries in Thursday's 26-18 win over the Commanders.
Both of Elliott's field-goal misses came in the first half, as he missed from 44 and 51 yards early in the first and second quarter, respectively. He managed to get back on track with successful attempts from 21 and 31 yards, but he ended up missing his first extra-point attempt of the season early in the fourth quarter. In the six regular-season games since the Eagles' Week 5 bye, Elliott has gone 10-for-14 on field-goal attempts and 17-for-18 on extra-point tries. He'll look to get back on track in Week 12 against the Rams on Sunday, Nov. 24.
-
Zane Gonzalez WAS K
Zane Gonzalez: Reverts to practice squad
2d agoGonzalez reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Gonzalez was elevated from the practice squad for Thursday's game against the Eagles as Austin Seibert was sidelined due to a hip injury. Gonzalez converted on a 45-yard field-goal attempt and made his lone extra-point try during Washington's 26-18 loss. If Seibert is unable to play Week 12 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Nov. 24, Gonzalez will likely be promoted to the active roster for a third consecutive game.
-
Spencer Shrader KC K
Chiefs' Spencer Shrader: To handle kicking duties moving forward
2d agoCoach Andy Reid said Shrader will handle all kicking duties for the Chiefs during Harrison Butker's (knee) absence, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.
Butker underwent surgery on the meniscus in his left knee Friday, resulting in his placement on injured reserve. As such, he'll miss at least four games during his recovery, a stretch that will allow Shrader to be the team's regular placekicker. Shrader has appeared in two games as a fill-in for the Colts and Jets this season, connecting on both field-goal attempts and all three point-after tries.
-
Nick Bosa SF DE
49ers' Nick Bosa: Questionable to return Sunday
12m agoBosa (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.
Bosa reached Geno Smith for a sack early in the third quarter, but he appeared to be in too much pain to celebrate according to Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle. The defensive lineman received treatment on his left hip while the Seahawks continued their drive, but his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air.
-
Dee Williams SEA CB
Seahawks' Dee Williams: Done for rest of Sunday
45m agoWilliams (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the 49ers.
Williams suffered an ankle injury early in the second half Sunday, ultimately being carted off the field, bringing his day to a premature end. Kenny McIntosh and Jaxon Smith-Njigba are candidates to see increased reps on kick returns and punt returns while Josh Jobe will likely see an uptick in usage at cornerback for the rest of the game.
-
Tatum Bethune SF LB
49ers' Tatum Bethune: Won't return Sunday
1h agoBethune (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Bethune suffered a knee injury on a kickoff during the first quarter. After being evaluated by trainers, the rookie seventh-round pick will not return for the second half of Sunday's game.
-
Kevin King ATL CB
Falcons' Kevin King: Won't return in Week 11
2h agoKing (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against Denver, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
King was hurt in the first quarter and was initially deemed questionable to return after entering concussion protocol. The veteran cornerback was then ruled out early in the second quarter. King's absence further depletes a Falcons secondary that entered Sunday already without fellow cornerbacks Dee Alford (hamstring), Antonio Hamilton (pectoral) and Mike Hughes (neck). Richie Grant has entered Sunday in King's stead.
-
Alex Anzalone DET MLB
Lions' Alex Anzalone: Suffers broken forearm
2h agoAnzalone broke his forearm during the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars and will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Anzalone suffered the injury while assisting on a tackle on running back Travis Etienne in the second quarter of Sunday's win. It's another blow to the Lions' defense, who lost Aidan Hutchinson for the rest of the regular season due to a broken left tibia and fibula in Week 6 against the Cowboys. Given the recovery timeline, Anzalone could return as early as Week 17 against the 49ers on Monday, Dec. 30. Ben Niemann and Trevor Nowaske are candidates to start at linebacker alongside Malcolm Rodriguez and Jack Campbell while Anzalone is sidelined.
-
Tatum Bethune SF LB
49ers' Tatum Bethune: Exits Sunday with knee injury
2h agoBethune (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
Bethune suffered the injury on a kickoff during the first quarter and walked back to the locker room. The rookie seventh-rounder has primarily played on special teams this season.
