Player Notes

Advice: Brady has thrown for 300 or more yards in five straight games.

Ryan Grant (GB - RB)

Nov 24 - RB Ryan Grant appears on the injury report this week for an unspecified neck injury that cropped up following the victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Grant went through the team's full practice Tuesday and should be OK to handle the bulk of the carries against the Detroit Lions on Thursday.

Nov 23 - Grant ran for 129 yards on 21 carries in the Packers' 30-24 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Advice: Grant has 5 rushing TDs this season, and that's not nearly enough to please most fantasy owners. Grant needs to find the end zone more.

Nov 22 - RB Ryan Grant contributed to the big day by the Packers offense, which produced a season-high 484 yards, with 129 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries. It was Grant's second 100-yard game this season.

Steve Slaton (Hou - RB)

Nov 24 - RB Steve Slaton, who hasn't run well and has lost five of seven games, has still scored seven touchdowns. He scored 10 as a rookie last season. Four of Slaton's touchdowns have been as a receiver. Because he hasn't run effectively or consistently, offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan has involved him in the passing game. Interesting that Slaton would experience a sophomore slump and still have a shot at scoring more touchdowns than he did last season.

Nov 21 - RB Steve Slaton will start against Tennessee on Sunday, according to the Houston Chronicle. Ryan Moats started the team's last game.

Randy Moss (NE - WR)

Nov 24 - WR Randy Moss was held to just five catches for 34 yards, but did score his team-leading eighth touchdown of the season from 4 yards out in the first quarter of Sunday's win.

Nov 23 - Moss caught five passes for 34 yards and a TD in Sunday's 31-14 win over the Jets.
Advice: Moss is one reception behind Torry Holt for 10th all-time with 907.

Bernard Berrian (Min - WR)

Nov 24 - WR Bernard Berrian caught only two passes for 11 yards against the Seahawks but one went for 3-yard touchdown. Berrian is fourth on the Vikings with 32 receptions but is tied for second with four touchdown catches. Berrian has struggled with injuries to both hamstrings this season and is averaging only 10.4 yards per reception after leading the NFL with an average of 20.1 yards per catch.

Lee Evans (Buf - WR)

Nov 24 - WR Lee Evans caught just one ball for 15 yards against Jacksonville but he deserved better. A 53-yard TD pass he caught from Ryan Fitzpatrick was called back by penalty. On the year, he has 28 catches for 396 yards and a team-high five scores.

Greg Olsen (Chi - TE)

Nov 24 - TE Greg Olsen has 18 catches for 188 yards and three touchdowns over the past three weeks, but all the scores came in the same game.

Nov 22 - TE Greg Olsen caught six passes for 42 yards Sunday but was targeted 12 times by an inaccurate Jay Cutler.
