Fantasy Impact:

Edelman has been out of action since Week 7's loss to the 49ers. He was designated to return from injured reserve last week. Edelman continues to recover from a knee procedure he required in late October. "We'll take it day-by-day, we don't want to rush it, when he's ready, he'll be back out there," Belichick added. The 34-year-old WR has hauled in 21 receptions for 315 yards and zero touchdowns over six games in 2020. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Edelman's progress, but expect the Patriots' WR to be sidelined for Week 12. Look for Jakobi Meyers, N'Keal Harry and Damiere Byrd to be QB Cam Newton's top targets on Sunday.
