Lamar Jackson injury update, Week 14 fantasy outlook

UPDATE: Jackson (knee) is listed as doubtful on the Ravens' official injury report

Jackson had not practiced on Thursday, according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley, nor did he participate in Wednesday's practice, according to the Ravens' official injury report. He suffered a sprained PCL early in Week 13 and is trending toward missing Sunday's AFC North clash with Pittsburgh.

Tyler Huntley is on track to make his first start of the season after filling in for Jackson last week. Given Huntley's dual-threat ability, he's a high-end QB2 against a Steelers' defense allowing the ninth-most fantasy points per game (FPPG) to QBs (19.1). Another DNP from Jackson on Thursday could result in the Ravens ruling him out before the weekend rolls around.

Tua Tagovailoa injury update, Week 14 fantasy outlook

UPDATE: Tagovailoa (ankle) is listed as questionable for Miami's Week 14 game against the Chargers on Sunday Night Football, but all signs point to the star QB making the start. 

Tagovailoa logged a limited session in the Dolphins' Wednesday practice after exiting their Week 13 loss to San Francisco in the fourth quarter. Tagovailoa is still on track to suit up and play in the critical primetime game.

Tagovailoa remains a must-start QB1 in a plus matchup against an exploitable Chargers' pass defense. With Tagovailoa and Jaylen Waddle (fibula) trending on the right side of "questionable," expect the Dolphins' offense to post a bounce-back performance this week. Tagovailoa currently leads all QBs in adjusted yards per attempt (9.2) and deep-ball completion percentage (55.3 percent), as the Dolphins' ability to generate chunk plays spells good news. If Tagovailoa has a setback, Teddy Bridgewater (knee) would be next in line assuming he's ready for action.

Trevor Lawrence injury update, Week 14 fantasy outlook

UPDATE: Lawrence (toe) practiced on Friday and "felt good," according to ESPN's Michael DiRocco. DiRocco had previously noted that Lawrence wasn't seen during Thursday's portion of practice open to the media.

Lawrence (toe) missed Jacksonville's Wednesday practice and will likely get hit with a "questionable" tag leading into Week 14.

WEEK 14 DFS LINEUPS: DraftKings | FanDuel

Lawrence is considered "day-to-day" after suffering a sprained toe in the Jaguars' Week 13 loss to the Lions. Even if Lawrence logs two straight DNPs to end the week, he still has a chance to suit up on Sunday against the Titans. We might not know Lawrence's status until Sunday morning, and if he were to miss this week's game, backup C.J. Beathard would start in his place. That would hurt all of Jacksonville's pass-catchers and elevate Tennessee's D/ST.
