Miami Dolphins DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Miami Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith caught three of four targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Week 14's 32-26 overtime victory over the New York Jets. His touchdown grab to seal the victory came from 10 yards out on a beautiful touchball by Tua Tagovailoa. Smith went into the contest on an absolute tear. His averages in the previous three games were 10 targets, 8.3 receptions, and 100.3 yards per game. That was on top of scoring three touchdowns in that same span. Smith has quickly emerged as one of the top tight ends in fantasy football and should be a vital part of the Dolphins offense for the remainder of the season. Week 15 presents a road matchup with the Houston Texans.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 14 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He had been listed as questionable after logging three limited practices in a row, but the expectation all along was that he would not be able to suit up. With both Mattison and Zamir White (quadricep) sidelined for the third consecutive week, the Raiders will turn to Ameer Abdullah as their primary running back. Sincere McCormick should also continue to carve out a solid workload against the Bucs.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) is a "long-shot" to play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Running back Zamir White (quad) has already been ruled out, leaving Sincere McCormick and veteran journeyman Ameer Abdullah as the top options. Mattison has only 320 yards this season, which leads the team. At this stage of the season, a fantasy manager relying upon anybody in the Raiders' running game is asking for a bad time.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) is off the injury report and is good to go for Sunday's divisional matchup against the New York Jets. Hill opened the week as a non-participant and was then upgraded to a limited participant on Thursday. Hill was then able to log a full session on Friday which is why he does not carry an injury designation. Hill has been dealing with this wrist injury for some time but has yet to miss a game due to it. After tallying a mere 9.8 PPR points in Week 12, Hill enjoyed a nice bounce-back in Week 13 when he posted 20.8 PPR points against the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers should still view Hill as a bona fide WR1 despite a tough matchup against the Jets, who have allowed the fewest PPR points to opposing WRs this season.

According to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN, Las Vegas Raiders running backs Zamir White (quadriceps) has been ruled out, and Alexander Mattison (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. White will now miss his third-straight contest. Mattison has remained a limited participant during this week's practices and could be in line to return following his two-game absence. Over the past two weeks, veteran Ameer Abdullah has operated as the lead back and averaged a modest 33.5 rushing with 25.5 receiving yards per game. However, depth option Sincere McCormick has shown flashes over this stint, as he has posted a solid 5.7 yards per carry. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Mattison's status over the weekend as he would likely reclaim his lead role if he can suit up on Sunday.
