Fantasy Impact: With White sidelined for an extended period, the Raiders backfield situation becomes even more intriguing. While Zamir White wasn't a fantasy star, his absence opens the door for others to step up. Sincere McCormick is expected to see a significant increase in touches, even if Alexander Mattison returns from his injury. McCormick becomes an interesting waiver wire target in most formats.

Fantasy Impact: "If you pressed me, I'd probably say he's out or could be categorized as doubtful," Tomlin said. It appears that Pittsburgh will be without Pickens for at least one more game.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said LB DeMarvion Overshown will require knee surgery. (Source: Todd Archer on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Overshown suffered the injury in Monday's loss against the Bengals. He will miss the rest of the season. Overshown finishes the year having recorded five sacks with one interception.

Fantasy Impact: Romo cleared waivers after he was released by the Vikings. He went 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts for Minnesota while Will Reichard was injured.

K.J. Osborn and the New England Patriots have mutually agreed to part ways. Osborn is now subject to waivers, where other teams will have the opportunity to claim him. (Source: Ian Rapoport)

Fantasy Impact: Osborn had a limited role in the Patriots' offense this season, catching only seven passes for 57 yards and one touchdown. His departure opens up more opportunities for other receivers on the roster.

The Cowboys' D/ST logged two sacks and one interception while allowing 27 points in Monday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Dallas' defense had a bad game on Monday. They were able to force one turnover on the night, but that wasn't enough to stop Cincinnati from scoring 27 points en route to a win over them. They also had no answer for Ja'Marr Chase, who had 177 yards and two touchdowns on the night. This unit should not be considered a strong option in a matchup against the Panthers in Week 15.

Brandon Aubrey converted 2-of-2 field goal attempts and 2-of-2 extra point attempts in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Aubrey made the most out of his opportunities on Monday night, making all four of his kicks in what turned out to be a loss to the Bengals. Fantasy managers should feel pretty good with this performance from him, but it remains to be seen if he will continue to play well in the fantasy playoffs.

KaVontae Turpin caught 1-of-4 targets for 16 yards in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Dallas' offense struggled as a whole on Monday night, and Turpin was no exception. He caught just one pass on the night and wasn't able to do anything notable with it, which left him with a poor fantasy total. He remains off of the fantasy radar for the foreseeable future.

Jalen Tolbert was not able to bring in any of his three targets in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Tolbert struggled heavily on Monday. He was targeted three times over the course of the night, but he was unable to bring in any of them and ended up with a goose egg. CeeDee Lamb is about the only player on Dallas' offense that will be a reliable fantasy option with Cooper Rush at the helm.

Jake Ferguson hauled in 3-of-6 targets for 32 yards in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Dallas' passing game wasn't very strong on Monday night, and Ferguson felt the effects of that. His six targets only amounted to 32 yards, which left him with a lackluster fantasy total. He will likely continue to be an underwhelming fantasy option with Cooper Rush seemingly set to finish out the season as Dallas' starter.

Brandin Cooks caught one pass for three yards and a touchdown in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Cooks was uninvolved on Monday and was only able to catch one pass en route to a loss to the Bengals, but it did turn out to be one of Dallas' two offensive touchdowns on the night. He doesn't see much involvement with Cooper Rush at the helm for the Cowboys and shouldn't be rostered over the final stretch of the season.

Rico Dowdle rushed the ball 18 times for 131 yards and caught one pass for ten yards in Monday's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Dowdle played really well on Monday night. He logged 131 yards on the ground against the Bengals, and he was rushing at a very efficient clip of 7.3 yards per carry. His touchdown opportunities will be limited on Dallas' lackluster offense, but he is a strong candidate to get a starting spot in many league formats over the final stretch of the season.

CeeDee Lamb caught 6-of-7 targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 27-20 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Impact: Lamb played a nice game on Monday night. He led the team with 93 receiving yards on the night, and he was also able to get into the end zone once, which gave him a good fantasy total. His situation is less than ideal with Cooper Rush at the helm for Dallas, but he should still remain a quality WR1 over the last few weeks of the season.
