Player notes to watch out for in the Thanksgiving games

November 27, 2024

Wazzuppp. Happy Thanksgiving Eve. I’ve got some early dishes for you to feast on tonight ahead of tomorrow’s 3-game slate:

  • Top FF industry articles this week

  • CHI vs DET player spotlights

  • NYG vs DAL player spotlights

  • MIA vs GB player spotlights

  • Memes for days

Here we goooooo.

D’Andre Swift (RB, CHI)

  • Swift's usage has declined under Thomas Brown, with snap share dropping to 54% and route participation down to 32%

  • Has lost goal-line work to Roschon Johnson, who has handled four of the Bears' five goal-line attempts over the last two weeks

  • Faces a challenging matchup against the Lions who give up the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing backs

  • Currently ranked as RB18 for the year, averaging 12.9 half-PPR fantasy points per game

  • Shows high inconsistency with 18.9+ fantasy points in 36.4% of games but 8 or fewer in 45.5%

All of these bullets were pulled from Swift’s player profile on Dynasty Pulse, which highlights every article he’s mentioned in + key takeaways - updated daily.

Sam Laporta (TE, DET)

  • LaPorta has struggled despite playing in the NFL's highest-scoring offense (32.7 points per game)

  • His fantasy value has been hindered by Jameson Williams' emergence, who has surpassed LaPorta in targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns in 2024

  • Has shown significant decline in efficiency metrics including receiving grade and yards per route run compared to rookie year

  • Still warrants starting consideration in most weeks but should be viewed as a borderline top-10 TE option

All of these bullets were pulled from Laporta’s player profile on Dynasty Pulse, which highlights every article he’s mentioned in + key takeaways - updated daily.

Malik Nabers (WR, NYG)

  • Nabers has failed to reach 11.0 fantasy points in five consecutive contests despite strong early-season performance

  • Currently ranks 5th among all WRs in receptions and maintains an 80.2 PFF receiving grade

  • Production has been limited by Giants' offensive struggles and quarterback issues

  • Should be ranked as a high-to-mid-tier WR2 despite team limitations, maintaining must-start status due to game-breaking ability

All of these bullets were pulled from Nabers’ player profile on Dynasty Pulse, which highlights every article he’s mentioned in + key takeaways - updated daily.

Ceedee Lamb (WR, DAL)

  • CeeDee Lamb has recorded 18 catches over his last two games, showing strong chemistry with backup QB Cooper Rush

  • Has maintained double-digit targets in five straight games, demonstrating consistent involvement in the offense

  • CeeDee Lamb leads the NFL with 118 targets

  • Lamb's efficiency has dropped significantly without Prescott, going from 7.9 yards per target to just 5.3 yards per target in the last three games

  • No other Cowboys player saw more than 4 targets in Week 12, highlighting Lamb's dominance in the passing game

All of these bullets were pulled from Lamb’s player profile on Dynasty Pulse, which highlights every article he’s mentioned in + key takeaways - updated daily.

Tyreek Hill (WR, MIA)

  • Hill is predicted to struggle due to an ongoing sore hand injury, particularly with Miami playing on a short week at Green Bay

  • Has only finished better than WR26 twice this season, suggesting continued underperformance

  • Experts note that with De'Von Achane and Jonnu Smith getting consistent touches, Hill's opportunities may be limited, having posted just three games over 70 yards this season

  • Showing pedestrian numbers since Tua's return with 1.90 YPRR ranking third on his own team

  • First read target share of 23% is tied with Jonnu Smith

  • Averaging just 9.2 PPR points per game on the road this year, though only two games were with Tua

All of these bullets were pulled from Tyreek’s player profile on Dynasty Pulse, which highlights every article he’s mentioned in + key takeaways - updated daily.

Jayden Reed (WR, GB)

  • Jayden Reed has been one of the most inconsistent fantasy WRs this year, with a WR1 and WR2 week but also five weeks outside the top 40 receivers

  • With Romeo Doubs out with a concussion, Reed is expected to see concentrated targets against the Dolphins

  • Reed's targets close to the line of scrimmage could be valuable against the Dolphins' elite cornerback duo of Jalen Ramsey and Kendall Fuller

  • Reed has recorded less than 30 yards in four of his last six games

  • Has managed more than three catches just once since Week 7,
