Cleveland Browns quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson will make his first start of the season when he heads on the road to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 16. Thompson-Robinson will take over as the Browns' starting quarterback after they benched Jameis Winston late in a Week 15 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bengals represent an excellent matchup for quarterbacks as they are allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, Thompson-Robinson has thrown for just one touchdown and seven interceptions across 12 career appearances and can't be trusted to take advantage of this generous Cincinnati defense. He settles in as nothing more than a desperation option in superflex leagues heading into Week 16.

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) was carted off the field during Saturday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. It was an ugly scene that had many players in tears on the sideline. After further evaluation, Dell has reportedly suffered a dislocated knee cap. It sounds like the doctors are still determining the next step, but Dell could be forced to undergo surgery. If that happens, Dell could be sidelined for the beginning of next season, which would certainly be a bummer. Dell already suffered a season-ending injury last year, so this would be two years in a row for the young wideout. He hauled in six receptions for 98 yards and a touchdown before exiting the contest. The absence of Dell should mean increased roles for Nico Collins, Robert Woods, and Xavier Hutchinson.
