Fantasy Football Update: Justin Jefferson’s Status Uncertain, Kyren Williams Returns, Three Key Chiefs Players Injured

Celebrate this Thanksgiving weekend with plenty of early football and an exciting new Black Friday game! Things kicked off on Thursday with the NFL’s action-packed games, where the Green Bay Packers triumphed over the Detroit Lions, the Dallas Cowboys dominated the Washington Commanders, and the San Francisco 49ers outplayed the Seattle Seahawks.

On Friday afternoon, the New York Jets struggled with Tim Boyle at quarterback as Miami Dolphins secured a 34-13 win. Despite missing De’Von Achane’s presence due to a knee injury, the Dolphins secured the victory. One player who might be ready to return next week is Justin Jefferson for the Minnesota Vikings. Listed as questionable for the third consecutive week, he remains hopeful to make the decision himself when he feels 100%, showing zero concern for fantasy team owners.

Not all wide receivers are gearing up for a comeback, though. Tee Higgins of the Cincinnati Bengals will remain sidelined as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury. However, the good news is that Los Angeles Rams’ wide receiver Cooper Kupp is expected to make his comeback against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday after suffering a lateral ankle sprain in Week 11.

As for the upcoming Week 12 games, several players are questionable, doubtful, or out due to injuries, raising excitement and curiosity about the impact on their teams. Here’s the rundown on who is expected to make Sunday’s games and who will not.
