DeVante Parker Ruled Out, JuJu Smith-Schuster Active Thursday

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) has been ruled out for the Thursday night game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Meanwhile, JuJu Smith-Schuster (ankle) is active and will play. Both players came into the Week 14 contest as questionable. Rookies Demario Douglas (concussion) and Kayshon Boutte (shoulder) were already ruled out, so a Patriots offense averaging four points a game in their last three contests will now be down to Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton and Jalen Reagor as their top three wideouts with quarterback Bailey Zappe running the offense. Oh yeah, and starting running back Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) is out as well. Fantasy managers would probably be smart to avoid New England's offensive skill players in this Thursday night game that figures to be very low-scoring.
