Welcome back, everybody, to the Football Guys Daily Update. You give us 10 minutes. We'll give you

everything you need to know to make you the most informed fantasy football player in your league.

I'm Mike Dempsey-Loll with Football Guys own Bob Harris as we get ready to turn the page to week

number 12. Bob, let's start with Jamar Chase here, suspended for next week. Claims he didn't spin on anybody. He didn't open

his mouth. I guess he forgot how many cameras follow players in an NFL game, you liar. Yes,

he did. So does this guarantee the absence of Chase? Is this guarantee that Flacco falls outside

the top 12 quarterbacks when they play New England this week? First of all, Chase will appeal and likely lose that appeal. But yes, it makes it more likely. I mean, we learned the great Joe Flacco can also be the ordinary average Joe Flacco. And Sundays lost the Steelers. He was quarterback 20, 9.9 fantasy points. A pick six in the third quarter was a big deal. And that was with Chase. So we need to realize that we got the best end of the range of possible outcomes over the first few weeks. But there's another end of that range. There always is. And taking away key pieces as a good way of any to get to that end of the range. Yeah, Joe Burrow going to continue ramping up his work this week reportedly. Now, we know he is pushing to play. Any chance the team takes that choice out of his hands? Let's say they fall to three and eight this week or if he's not ready for Thanksgiving and maybe they fall to three and nine. I was thinking about that as I posted this story on the football guy's news feed yesterday. Go check that out. People tons of great info there every every day i don't think we should see his return

as being guaranteed the bengals need to be smart here and while their fans might not think they're

capable of doing smart things i do it's entirely possible all right thursday night football

houston and buffalo cj stroud still in the concussion protocol davis mill said to be likely to

start how concerning is it bob that stroud still is yet to get on the practice field after missing the last couple of games? If it's not concerning enough as is, I think the fact that it falls in the line with his history is even more so. He was previously in the concussion protocol during his rookie season, 2023. He was sidelined for two games before returning in that case, this will obviously be his third straight

absence, but the short turnaround this week is a factor. All right, Nico Collins, by the way,

estimated limited participant in what would have been a practice yesterday had there been one for

the Houston Texans for the Buffalo Bills. Dalton Kincaid, no practice. Bob, seems unlikely that

he's going to return on Thursday night football.

Yeah, again, hard enough for players to get back to a Sunday game, but in the compressed work,

it makes it probably unlikely for Dalton Kincaid.

And several receivers also joining him on the sidelines.

Khalil Shakir had a personal day.

Curtis Samuel with elbow and neck injuries, and Mikul Hardman with a calf also missed

the walkthrough yesterday for Buffalo. Moving on to Atlanta, man, Michael Penix Jr. headed to injured

reserve, Bob, said to be some damage to his ACL. Can Kurt Cousins keep this offense afloat in
