Allen secured his only target for four yards during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Panthers.

In the absence of Tyler Higbee (ankle), Colby Parkinson has been the main beneficiary, and on Sunday he once again led all Rams tight ends in snap count, targets, receptions and yards. Neither Allen nor Terrance Ferguson (two targets) were a factor on offense, and Parkinson looks to retain his role as the team's top tight end while Higbee is on injured reserve. The Cardinals are up next in a divisional showdown in Week 14, and Davis will continue to be touchdown-dependent to be a fantasy contributor.

Jones recorded 12 tackles (two solo) and two interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown, in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

Jones intercepted an errant pass from Vikings QB Max Brosmer and returned it 85 yards for his first career pick-six. This was a monster performance by Jones, who returned to the lineup after missing last week's game with a knee injury. The 26-year-old linebacker has been a consistent fantasy contributor this season with 8.3 tackles per game in addition to five interceptions.

Arroyo didn't haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

Arroyo continues to run behind second-year tight end AJ Barner, as the former recorded a 39 percent snap share in the blowout win. We've seen some flashes from the rookie tight end, but he won't be a dependable fantasy option moving forward barring an injury to Barner.

Whittington failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Panthers.

Sunday's game against Carolina marked the third time in the last five games that Whittington was held without a catch, a concerning trend made more troubling by a three-catch, 82-yard performance by Xavier Smith. Whittington actually played the least of the Rams' backup wide receiver corps, with both Smith and Konata Mumpfield logging 20 snaps to Whittington's 18. Tutu Atwell (hamstring) is trending towards a return for the Week 14 contest against the Cardinals after logging three full practices last week as well, which would push Whittington further down the depth chart.

White caught his lone target for 21 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

White recorded his first catch since Week 9 and his second of the season in the blowout win. He has totaled just 25 total snaps over the last two weeks, and his usage should remain limited as long as Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Rashid Shaheed are healthy.

Gaskin rushed three times for six yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

With George Holani (hamstring) on injured reserve, Gaskin served as the No. 3 running back behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet. Gaskin logged three offensive snaps in the blowout win and received a carry on each one. Cam Akers also signed with the team earlier in the week but was a healthy scratch, yet it's possible Akers gets the nod over Gaskin in Week 14 versus the Falcons.

Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Reed (foot) has yet to be medically cleared to return to game action, but the plan is to see where he's at by the end of the week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Reed hasn't played since Week 2 due to foot and collarbone injuries, but his 21-day practice window was opened 10 days ago. He should be considered genuinely questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears. If Reed remains sidelined, the Packers will likely continue to lean on Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks as their main three-wide set.

Higgins remains in the league's concussion protocol Monday, Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Higgins was concussed eight days ago in the Bengals' Week 12 loss to the Patriots and missed last Thursday night's win over the Ravens. He has six more days to get ready for next Sunday's game against the Bills. If Higgins can't get cleared, Andrei Iosivas and Mitchell Tinsley should again see increased reps alongside Ja'Marr Chase.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday that Teller (calf) is considered week-to-week, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

The veteran from Virginia Tech likely sustained a calf injury in the Week 13 loss to the 49ers, as he played just 31 of the Browns' 63 offensive snaps. If Teller is inactive for the Week 14 matchup against the Titans as expected, Teven Jenkins is will likely start at right guard.

Coach John Harbaugh said Hill (neck) will be sidelined 3-to-4 weeks, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.

Hill was apparently injured in practice last week and was placed on injured reserve ahead of last Thursday night's game against the Bengals. He'll miss at least three more contests while on IR, but it sounds like he'll have a chance to return when eligible Week 17. Keaton Mitchell and Rasheen Ali will continue to handle backup duties behind Derrick Henry for the next few weeks.
