McNichols finished Saturday's loss to Philadelphia with one carry for three yards and two catches (on three targets) for nine yards.

McNichols posted a season-high 10 touches versus the Giants in Week 15, but that increased workload was largely due to the absence of No. 1 RB Chris Rodriguez. With both Rodriguez and No. 2 tailback Jacory Croskey-Merritt in action Saturday, McNichols went back to his usual minor role, though he did get more offensive snaps (15) than Croskey-Merritt (11). As long as at least one of the two running backs ahead of him on the depth chart is healthy, McNichols figures to be mostly a non-factor in fantasy.

Higgins (concussion) is in line to play Sunday against the Dolphins, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Per Fowler, Higgins, who the Bengals listed as questionable for the contest, is "good to go," with the report noting that the team was hopeful about the wideout's status this weekend but wanted to make sure he felt good Sunday morning. Official confirmation of Higgins' Week 16 playing status is slated to arrive once inactives are posted ahead of Cincinnati's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

The Eagles are expected to have Carter (shoulders) available for their Week 17 game next Sunday in Buffalo, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

While continuing to rehab from procedures on both of his shoulders, Carter was sidelined for a third straight game in Saturday's 29-18 win over the Commanders. The third-year defensive tackle didn't practice in any fashion leading up to Saturday's contest, but the Eagles apparently anticipate him making enough progress in his recovery program to put an end to his absence in Week 17. If Carter is able to make it back for the matchup with the Bills, Byron Young would likely move back into a smaller role along Philadelphia's defensive line.

Jarrett recorded seven tackles, including three solo, in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Jarrett set a season high in tackles after posting between two and four stops per game in the past six weeks. He recorded his only sack of the season in Week 15, highlighting the rarity of his splash plays. He profiles as a moderate-floor defensive tackle IDP based on occasional tackle spikes rather than steady volume.

Sweat recorded five tackles, including two solo, and 1.0 sacks in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Sweat notched his second sack over the last four contests, bringing his season total to 9.5. The five tackles marked his first game with more than three stops since Week 8. He remains a sack-dependent IDP whose value fluctuates with pass-rush production.

Brisker recorded eight tackles in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Brisker posted his second-highest tackle total of the season after averaging five stops over his previous four contests. His season-long production includes just a sack and an interception, limiting his splash-play profile. He remains a moderate-floor IDP based on tackle volume alone.

Wright recorded eight tackles, including three solo, in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Wright logged his third game this season with more than six tackles and his first such outing with at least eight stops since Week 8. He also has five interceptions this season, though tackle totals have fluctuated week-to-week. That mix leaves him as an inconsistent IDP with big-play-driven upside.

Byard recorded nine tackles, including five solo, in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Byard delivered his highest tackle total of the season, surpassing his usual range of five to seven stops that he's posted in 11 contests. He also has six interceptions on the year, providing consistent splash-play upside from the secondary. The combination keeps him in the high-floor IDP tier.

Booker recorded seven tackles, including four solo, and 0.5 sacks in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Booker now has 2.5 of his 3.5 sacks over his last two contests, accounting for nearly all of his big-play production this season. He has posted between two and four tackles in all but two games, underscoring his reliance on sacks for fantasy value. That profile makes him a low-floor, sack-dependent IDP option.

Edwards recorded 10 tackles, including five solo, and 0.5 sacks in the Bears' 22-16 overtime win over the Packers on Saturday.

Edwards posted his third game with more than seven tackles while appearing in eight games this season while maintaining a floor of at least four stops in every outing. The 0.5 sacks marked his first of the year, adding a rare splash play to his tackle production. He remains a moderate-floor IDP based on steady involvement.
