Abdullah did not have a carry and failed to bring in a catch on his only target in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

Abdullah played just four snaps on offense as Indy used Jonathan Taylor on 46 of the offense's 51 snaps despite giving him just 16 rushing attempts. Abdullah looks to be ahead of Tyler Goodson and DJ Giddens in the backup role, though that order may change if Taylor is injured.

Washington secured both of his targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 31-28 loss to Chicago.

Washington had just two catches in Sunday's defeat while fellow tight ends Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth each had three receptions. However, Washington led the group in receiving yards and logged the most snaps of the trio, as he was on the field for 68 percent of the team's offensive plays compared to Smith's 49 percent and Freiermuth's 47 percent. Although Washington had some factors that slightly mitigated his disappointing performance, his fantasy upside is limited since he's split work with Smith and Freiermuth for most of the season.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Hendrickson (hip/pelvis) won't play in Thursday's game against the Ravens, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

The veteran edge rusher is now in line to miss his fourth game in a row after aggravating a hip injury in the Bengals' Week 8 loss to the Jets. Though he's been limited to just seven games this season, Hendrickson has been impactful with 16 tackles, 4.0 sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble.

Ogletree had two receptions for eight yards, including a four-yard touchdown, on three targets in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

Ogletree's performance came out of nowhere as he had just one target all season before Sunday. He played about his usual number of snaps on offense (11 of 51), so this may be an outlier performance. However, the Colts were coming off a bye week, so there's a chance the coaching staff plan to make him more a part of the passing game going forward.

Hamilton (ankle) recorded 10 total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Jets.

The fourth-year pro from Notre Dame reached double-digit stops for the first time this season and finished with the second-most tackles on the Ravens' defense during Sunday's win. Hamilton has now recorded 69 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, six passes defensed and two forced fumbles over while appearing in 10 games this season. He's expected to remain one of Baltimore's top defensive playmakers in the Week 13 matchup against the Bengals.

Wilson failed to secure either of his two targets during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bears.

Wilson had recorded at least one catch in each of his last six games, but he failed to establish a connection with quarterback Mason Rudolph in Chicago on Sunday. Wilson also was on the field for just 28 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps, which was his lowest mark since Week 6. He's shown some glimpses of production this season but hasn't been a very reliable fantasy option.

Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that he anticipates Burrow (toe) will play Thursday night against the Ravens, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

Taylor admitted the Bengals will work through the week, and he's not willing to declare anything concrete as of Monday, but it does sound like Burrow has a legitimate chance to be under center versus Baltimore on Thanksgiving. Burrow's 21-day window for activation from injured reserve was opened 14 days ago. If he does play Thursday night, it will be Burrow's first action since he was injured 21 snaps into Week 2 against Jacksonville. His return would obviously provide a big boost to the Cincinnati offense as a whole for the final six weeks of the season.

Smith recorded 11 total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Jets.

Smith led Baltimore's defense in total tackles and has now logged double-digit stops in three of the team's last five contests. The Georgia product has appeared in nine games this season, recording 79 total tackles and three passes defensed. He's expected to remain a viable IDP option in the Week 13 matchup against the Bengals on Thursday.

Downs had two receptions for 10 yards on six targets in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

Downs again took a back seat to Michael Pittman and Tyler Warren (five receptions each) in the intermediate passing game. After recording touchdowns in three consecutive games, Downs has just three receptions for 13 yards his last two games. He'll face a tough matchup against a stout defense next week against Houston.

Johnson didn't take the field during Sunday's 31-28 loss to Chicago.

Johnson had been limited to single-digit offensive snaps in each of Pittsburgh's last three games, but he didn't log a play Week 12. Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell continue to serve as the Steelers' top two running backs, and Johnson has been unable to carve out a fantasy-relevant role to begin his rookie year.
