Fantasy football managers will hope their stars enjoy more Week 11 success than the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers.
In a rare Thursday Night Football game stacked with premium talent, none of the top NFL players delivered an eye-opening stat line. Jonathan Stewart salvaged his evening with a touchdown, and most quarterbacks would take 285 yards and two touchdowns considered humdrum for Drew Brees. Tim Hightower flourished—especially in point-per-reception leagues—but Mark Ingram left New Orleans' 23-20 loss early.
Cam Newton, Greg Olsen, Kelvin Benjamin and Brandin Cooks all finished the bout that was advertised as a potential shootout with underwhelming numbers.
