Carolina Panthers DE Charles Johnson (knee) is expected to practice this week and how that goes will determine if he is able to play in the team’s Week 13 game.

Footballguys View: Getting Johnson back will be a huge boost for one of the league’s best defensive units. The team won’t rush him back if he’s not ready as they have their mind on making a deep postseason run.

Miami Dolphins RB Daniel Thomas (ankle) suffered a torn ligament in his ankle in the team’s Week 12 game that will keep him out for an extended period of time.

Footballguys View: Without Thomas in the lineup we could see more from Lamar Miller. We don’t trust the running back situation in Miami, and fantasy owners should consider Miller as nothing more than a “what the heck” flex. Marcus Thigpen and rookie Mike Gillislee will compete for backup touches behind Miller.
