-Texans' slot corner Jalen Pitre will return in Week 13. That helps solidify the Texans' secondary with two really good outside corners. Safety Myles Bryant was covering the slot without Pitre. The slot matchup for Josh Downs was already tough to begin with.

-Dolphins' slot CB Rasul Douglas remains questionable. Douglas typically covers the slot, but safety Minkah Fitzpatrick has been covering the slot for the Dolphins. We're projecting Fitzpatrick to cover Chris Olave in Week 13.

-Cardinals' Will Johnson is ready to return in Week 13 after missing three games with a back injury. With Max Melton nursing a heel injury, Johnson should return to starter reps as the other outside cornerback besides Denzel Burke.

-Rams' Ahkello Witherspoon is back for Week 13. That should help improve the depth for the Rams' secondary, which is already one of the better ones in the league, ranking first in team coverage grades.

-Jets' slot CB Jarvis Brownlee was downgraded to doubtful. Ja'Sir Taylor mostly played on special teams, with very minimal coverage snaps. We're projecting safety Malachi Moore to cover the slot as he has in the past.

Notable CB updates:
-Giants' CB Paulson Adebo will return on Monday, pushing Deonte Banks into a reserve role. Banks had a full practice on Friday to help the Giants' secondary depth.

-Jets' WR Allen Lazard was added to the injury report on Saturday with a neck injury. It's probably insignificant, other than maybe Isaiah Williams getting more slot reps.

-Marvin Harrison Jr. expects to play after missing the past two games. I'm still advising to start Michael Wilson because Harrison has 3 games in 2025 with a target share at 25% or higher. Trey McBride had 7. Michael Wilson had 2 straight weeks with 15+ targets. Harrison has never done that yet.

Xavier Restrepo was elevated from the practice squad, which initially suggested Ayomanor might not play. Restrepo isn't on the spreadsheet, but a deep, dynasty player to monitor.

-There was an optimistic note about Titans' Elic Ayomanor expecting to play, so we took James Proche off the spreadsheet. The Jaguars' pass defense has been middle of the pack, allowing the 16th-most fantasy points per dropback on deep passes. That's where Ayomanor has been targeted.

Notable WR updates:
-It sounds like Chris Olave expects to play, but he's dealing with a back issue. The Dolphins' secondary has been sneakily keeping opposing receivers in check, allowing the 20th-most PPR to the slot and 30th-most to WR out wide.

Restrepo ranked:
-4th in first downs per reception
-11th in yprr against man
-17th in yprr versus zone

He was No. 13 on the rookie spreadsheet without draft capital. Was projected as a Day 2 pick before the NFL Combine but was an UDFA

Trey Benson, James Conner, Bijan Robinson, Jonathan Taylor, Jahmyr Gibbs, Jaylen Warren, and James Cook. Since Spears returned in Week 5, the usage for him and Tony Pollard has been relatively similar, with Pollard having an edge in rush rate.
