Baltimore Ravens DFS Spin
Lamar Jackson (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday’s game at Cleveland. Jackson will miss his second straight game due to the left knee sprain he sustained in the Ravens’ Week 13 win over the Broncos. Given that he hasn’t taken the field in any capacity in Baltimore’s subsequent six practices, Jackson can’t be considered a lock to play Week 16 against the Falcons, at least at this juncture. Though head coach John Harbaugh stopped short of announcing a starter for Saturday’s game, Tyler Huntley cleared the concussion protocol Thursday and doesn’t carry a designation into the weekend, all but assuring that he’ll fill in for Jackson again.
Cleveland Browns DFS Spin
Deshaun Watson completed 26 of 42 passes for 276 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday’s 23-10 loss to the Bengals. He added 33 yards on six rushing attempts. After a shaky Browns debut last week, Watson looked marginally more comfortable in his second appearance. His first two passes went for gains of 18 and 13 yards, and he finished the first quarter with completions on all four of his attempts, though neither team produced any points. Watson’s first touchdown pass in a Cleveland uniform came in the third quarter, when he found tight end David Njoku from 13 yards out, but Watson was picked off on the following possession. He’s still shaking off the rust from his extended layoff, which will make Watson a risky fantasy option in Week 15 against the Ravens as many leagues begin their playoffs.
