Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (ankle) has returned to his team's Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears after briefly exiting the game due to an ankle injury. Metcalf limped off the field and was checked out in the medical tent, but was ultimately cleared to return to the field. Metcalf may not be at 100% for the remainder of Week 12, but Steelers fans and fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief that he avoided a major injury. Now that he's back in the lineup, the 27-year-old should continue to be the top target for Steelers backup quarterback Mason Rudolph in Week 12 against Chicago. Metcalf scored a touchdown in the first half before tweaking his ankle.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange (hip) is officially active for his team's Week 12 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Strange has been on Injured Reserve since Week 5 due to a hip injury. Across five games before getting hurt, the 24-year-old recorded 20 catches for 204 yards on 24 targets. With wide receivers Travis Hunter (knee) on Injured Reserve and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) sidelined in Week 12 by an ankle injury, Strange has a chance to emerge as one of the lead pass-catching options for Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Still, Jacksonville could choose to bring him along slowly in his first game back from injury against the Cardinals. Fantasy managers may want to proceed with caution with Strange in Week 12, but he's a name to monitor on the waiver wire for the stretch run of the fantasy season.
