The Baltimore Ravens will face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding RB Justice Hill.
Is Justice Hill Playing in Week 12?
Hill (concussion protocol) doesn’t have an injury designation heading into Monday’s clash against the Chargers.
Hill began the week with a limited practice while in concussion protocol but was able to log a full practice Friday. He was then estimated as a full participant again in Saturday’s walkthrough. As such, Hill will be able to suit up against the Chargers, and he’ll likely continue to work as Baltimore’s top kickoff returner as well as its change-of-pace back behind Derrick Henry.

Should You Start or Sit Justice Hill in Week 12?
Justice Hill saw seven targets last weekend against the Steelers, something that is great to see if you believe the Ravens are going to be pushed. That’s certainly possible this week and for the majority of their remaining games (Eagles, Giants, Steelers, and Texans remain).
That said, without a game of 20 rushing yards since Week 3, there’s a low floor to consider if PPR managers are considering getting cute. My play is this: do nothing. The Ravens have their bye in Week 14 and Hill could be cut loose at that time.
If you want his pass-catching role on your bench, add him during the bye and be on your way. As long as Derrick Henry is healthy, Hill is never going to rank as a starter for me, though I did like what I saw last week; with the rematch coming in crunch time for fantasy leagues, there’s sound logic that comes with rostering him.
