Little made both of his field-goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos.

Little remains perfect since the Jaguars' Week 8 bye, going 15-for-15 on field goals and 29-for-29 on PATs over the last eight games. Little's makes against the Broncos came from 47 and 26 yards. In a high-scoring Jacksonville offense, Little is a premier fantasy kicker headed into next Sunday's Week 17 date with the Colts.

Boutte (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Boutte was injured in the fourth quarter. To add insult to injury, he bobbled the ball on the play, allowing the Baltimore defender to knock away what would have been a long catch as the pair of players went to the ground. Prior to the injury, Boutte caught one of three targets for 16 yards.

Jordan handled 15 carries for 53 yards while catching all five of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders.

Nick Chubb (6-33-0) got the start in place of Woody Marks (ankle) on Sunday, but it was Jordan who paced the Texans' backfield in touches and production in the win. Jordan was signed from the practice squad early in the week to help address the team's running-back situation. The 2024 sixth-round pick averaged under four yards per carry and failed to hit pay dirt, resulting in a pedestrian fantasy score. Marks was able to get in a limited practice before ultimately being ruled out for Week 16, so Jordan's run of relevance may last just one game if the former is able to suit up against the Chargers on Saturday.

Etienne rushed the ball 16 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos. He added four receptions on five targets for 16 yards and a touchdown.

Etienne wasn't particularly efficient in his capacity as a rusher or a receiver, but he still managed a solid performance on 20 total touches while benefiting from the absence of Bhayshul Tuten (finger). His longest gain on the ground nearly resulted in a touchdown, as he went for 24 yards midway through the second quarter before being tackled at the three-yard line. Etienne then managed to reach the end zone on Jacksonville's second possession of the second half, catching a short pass before making a defender miss in the open field for a 10-yard trip to the end zone. Etienne has been inefficient as a runner this season, but he has 10 total touchdowns across his last seven games to remain a very consistent fantasy contributor.

Butker converted three of four field-goal attempts in the Chiefs' 26-9 loss to the Titans on Sunday.

Butker accounted for all nine of the Chiefs' points in the team's first game without Patrick Mahomes (knee), though QB2 Gardner Minshew also suffered what appeared to be a significant knee injury of his own against Tennessee. Butker's made field goals came from 54, 41 and 27 yards, but he missed a 51-yard kick wide right in the third quarter. It's been a subpar season for Butker, who has missed a total of nine kicks, including five field goals and four extra points.

Carter rushed 11 times for 65 yards while failing to collect either of his two targets in Sunday's 26-19 loss to Atlanta.

Carter was officially named the starter after Bam Knight (ankle) was placed on injured reserve following the latter's early exit in last week's loss to Houston. The 26-year-old Carter logged seven fewer touches in Sunday's start than he did taking over mid-game for the starter in Week 15. The North Carolina product still commanded the lion's share of backfield carries, finishing well ahead of backups Corey Kiner (6-32-0) and Emari Demercado (5-30-0). Carter should continuing seeing enough volume as Arizona's fill-in starter to warrant fantasy consideration for Saturday's road tilt against the Bengals.

Woods (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday night's matchup with the Ravens.

The cornerback did not record a stat before sustaining the injury. Woods has played more on special teams than defense in 2025.

Etienne received no offensive touches but tallied 33 punt-return yards during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Buccaneers.

The 21-year-old has gone without an offensive touch in five of the Panthers' last seven games, suggesting he's firmly behind both Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard in the team's backfield. Etienne has now tallied 642 kick-return yards and 160 punt-return yards while appearing in all 15 of Carolina's contests this season. He's expected to remain the team's top return man in the Week 17 matchup against the Seahawks.

St. Brown recorded four receptions on nine targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers.

St. Brown remained involved in the Detroit offense, though his nine targets were a modest total given that Jared Goff took to the air 54 times. He was also inefficient with his opportunities by hauling in fewer than half of his targets for only the second time this season. It was nearly a bigger game for St. Brown, as he appeared to have a one-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter, only to have the score nullified by an offensive pass interference penalty. St. Brown will be in for another tough matchup in Week 17 against the Vikings.

Tonga (foot) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday night's game against the Ravens.

The nose tackle suffered the injury during the first half after making three tackles. Eric Gregory is his backup.
