Steelers-Ravens pushed back to Wednesday

Fantasy Index publication schedule remains unchanged; consider moving your league's waivers to Thursday

As originally scheduled, we will publish and deliver the Fantasy Index Redrafter on Tuesday, and Fantasy Index Weekly on Wednesday. We'll post and deliver the Friday night rankings update to subscribers on the usual schedule, too.

On Thursday morning, we'll post analysis of the Wednesday night game to the Fantasy Index home page.

Delayed waivers. Because there is no Thursday game, ESPN and Yahoo are pushing back their waiver period to Thursday night / Friday morning. We are doing the same thing in the draft-in-person league that we run through the Fantasy Index office. If your league has the option to delay its waivers for 24 hours after completion of the Wednesday night game, you should. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:40 p.m. Eastern time, so the game should be finished by 8 p.m. Eastern time (so reschedule your waivers to run at 8 p.m. Eastern Thursday or later).

(We're sticking with the usual publication schedule because we know many/most leagues won't change.)

If the Ravens-Steelers game scheduled for Wednesday night is postponed again, then we'll close off Week 12, and any Ravens or Steelers will be credited with zero points for the week. That's how we are handling it. You be you.

Cascading schedule changes.Week 13 games for Pittsburgh and Baltimore have been pushed back to Monday night. Additionally, the NFL has announced flex schedule changes in weeks 14, 15 and 16. We have updated our NFL schedule page to reflect these changes.
