There are a lot questions for wide receiver in Week 12, though thankfully the bye weeks won't be too hard to navigate. In fact, the bye comes at a pretty good time for Tyreek Hill and Adam Thielen, both of whom will enjoy the extra week to recover from injuries. That's good news for those of you who will need them for the stretch run.
Unfortunately, things aren't quite so rosy around the league. JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee/concussion) seems unlikely to play this week; Julio Jones was out of practice Wednesday with a foot injury, with one reporter saying he had a "noticeable limp"; Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) were all held out of practice Wednesday. And that's not even the half of it. At least T.Y. Hilton might be back Thursday from the calf injury that has cost him three weeks — might.
