Chase McLaughlin Not Recommended For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin won the kicking competition during camp and opens the season as the starter. The 27-year-old outlasted Rodrigo Blankenship with a stellar showing in the final preseason game. McLaughlin knocked down 30-of-36 field goal attempts for an impressive 83.3% last season with the Indianapolis Colts. He appears to be a […]

Trey Palmer Won't Be Trustworthy For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer has found himself in an interesting spot to open the season. Fellow wide receiver Russell Gage (knee) is out for the season, which opened up the No. 3 role on the roster. During the preseason, Palmer played extremely well and earned himself that third spot at wideout. It […]

Cade Otton A Risky Start For Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton could very well see an uptick in usage this upcoming season. The former fourth-round pick was a surprisingly viable option for the Bucs last season. Otton hauled in 42 receptions for 391 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games (11 starts) with Tampa Bay. Now, Otton is the […]

Jordan Mason Remains Limited On Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (foot) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. The good news is that the 24-year-old has been able to get through back-to-back limited practice sessions. Mason is dealing with a sprained foot that he suffered during the preseason finale. He's trending in the right direction, but Friday's practice […]

Ray-Ray McCloud III Logs In Limited Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (wrist) was able to get through a limited practice session on Thursday. McCloud continues to work his way back from a broken wrist that he suffered in early August. The good news is that McCloud has been able to practice in a limited capacity on two consecutive […]

Chris Godwin Has WR2 Appeal

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin put together his first-ever 100-plus reception season in 2022. The 27-year-old has developed tremendously since entering the league in 2017. Godwin and Mike Evans have become a dynamic duo in Tampa Bay over the last few seasons. However, it remains to be seen how that duo will play […]

Mike Evans Has WR3 Value For Opener

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans appears to be healthy heading into the Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The 30-year-old was dealing with a groin injury, but appears to have put that behind him. The superstar wideout is heading into the final year of his contract with no extension in sight. That […]

Rachaad White Has RB2 Upside

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White appears to have claimed the lead back role on this offense. The 24-year-old is coming off a rookie season where he rushed for 481 yards, while also hauling in 50 receptions for an additional 290 yards through the air in 17 games. He did all that while being […]

Baker Mayfield Has Favorable Matchup In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield is set to make his team debut against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. The former No. 1 overall pick has experienced some highs and lows early in his career. The hope is that a change of scenery will help Mayfield get back on track. The good news is that […]

Chris Jones Could Hold Out Until Week 8

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones did not suit up for Thursday's regular season opener against the Detroit Lions. It appears the 29-year-old is willing to sit out until Week 8, assuming the two sides aren't able to reach a contract extension. Jones was seen sitting in a box at Arrowhead Stadium during Thursday's […]

Kenneth Walker III Limited On Thursday

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (groin) was listed as limited during Thursday's practice. This shouldn't be too shocking considering this groin issue has been lingering with Walker for weeks now. Possibly, the Seahawks are playing it safe and limiting Walker's reps ahead of their Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. It's […]

Joe Burrow Becomes Highest-Paid Player

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has agreed to a massive extension with the organization on Thursday. The 26-year-old has signed a five-year, $275 million extension that keeps him locked up through 2028. This deal includes a record-breaking $219 million guaranteed, making Burrow the highest paid player in the league. The 26-year-old is already one of […]

Damian Lillard Trade Talk Quiets Down

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has made it known that he wants to be traded this offseason. The 33-year-old expressed high praise for Portland, but also mentioned that he wants to win a title now. The Blazers have failed to build a legitimate contender around Lillard, so the superstar guard is ready to move […]

Trey Murphy III Could Avoid Surgery

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (knee) is dealing with a slight meniscus tear and is evaluating his options. It appears Murphy will undergo further testing to determine the extent of the injury. After that, it will be determined whether or not Murphy is going to require surgery. Regardless, it appears Murphy is going […]

Tim Anderson Scratched On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (neck) has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Kansas City Royals. The 30-year-old will sit this game out due to neck stiffness. That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried about Anderson missing much time. He should be considered as day-to-day for the moment. Elvis Andrus […]

Cedric Mullins Remains Out On Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins remains out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The 28-year-old will miss his second game in a row with the O's facing back-to-back left-handed starters. The O's will deploy Austin Hays, Aaron Hicks, and Anthony Santander will the outfield versus lefty Patrick Sandoval on […]

Chas McCormick Heads To The Bench

Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers. This is odd timing considering McCormick has been red-hot at the plate recently. The 28-year-old currently holds a seven-game hitting streak where he's gone 11-for-21 at the plate during that time. The assumption is that he'll return […]

James Paxton To Have Start Pushed Back

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher James Paxton will receive extended rest before making his next start on Tuesday versus the New York Yankees. The left-hander has allowed 16 runs over his last three starts. That being said, the team will skip his turn in the rotation to allow Paxton to have more rest. The 34-year-old […]

Corbin Carroll Removed Early On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (wrist) was removed early during Wednesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 23-year-old was pulled from the contest after being hit by a pitch in the wrist on Wednesday. The team is calling the injury a wrist contusion, so it could've been worse. It appears Carroll has avoided serious injury, […]

J.T. Realmuto Absent On Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. This appears to be a regular rest day for the superstar catcher. Realmuto has started in four straight games, so he could use a day off to rest. In his absence, Garrett Stubbs will start behind […]

Cedric Mullins To Sit Out On Tuesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. This appears to be nothing more than a routine day off for the 28-year-old outfielder. The O's will play the matchup game here with left-hander Reid Detmers on the mound for the Halos. Ryan McKenna will […]

Luis Campusano Returns To The Lineup

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano (groin) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 24-year-old was hit in the groin by a foul ball during Sunday's game. As a result, Campusano wasn't in Monday's starting lineup, but did appear as a pinch hitter. He'll bat sixth and serve […]

Shohei Ohtani To Miss Tuesday's Game

Los Angeles Angels two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow, oblique) is out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the Baltimore Orioles. This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering Ohtani is battling two injuries right now. The good news is that Angels' manager Phil Nevin said Ohtani is feeling improved. Fantasy managers can consider Ohtani as […]

Hunter Renfroe Scratched On Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Hunter Renfroe (hamstring) has been scratched ahead of Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The 31-year-old slugger was pulled from the lineup due to left hamstring tightness. The organization believes the injury is day-to-day, so Renfroe shouldn't require a trip to the injured list. In his absence, Harrison Bader will cover center […]

Trea Turner Placed On Paternity List

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner has been placed on the paternity list on Tuesday. The 30-year-old will be away from the team for a few days due to the birth of his child. The team will certainly miss his bat as Turner has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball lately. The slugging infielder […]

JaVale McGee Does Not Have Guaranteed Roster Spot

The Sacramento Kings recently signed center JaVale McGee to a one-year deal. It was reported that the deal was a one-year contract for the veteran minimum. That being said, the deal is worth a little over $3 million considering McGee has over 10 years of NBA service time. The expectation is that McGee will make […]

Franz Wagner Could Play On Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) has missed most of the World Cup, but might be able to return on Wednesday. The young forward is currently considered as a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup with Latvia. The German team would certainly be happy to see Wagner back on the court, but they aren't going to […]

Joey Votto To Ease Into Hitting

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto (shoulder) has been going through his strengthening program and has added on more hitting, according to manager David Bell. However, the Reds haven't given a timetable for Votto's return from the injured list. He was first eligible to return from the IL on Sunday, but that won't happen because […]

Max Muncy Pulled From Sunday's Game

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy (shoulder) has been removed early during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The left-handed slugger tweaked his shoulder on a swing, which resulted in his departure from the ballgame. Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts said postgame that Muncy should be fine and shouldn't require a trip to the injured list. […]

Brady Singer Hopeful To Start On Tuesday

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Brady Singer (arm) remains on the paternity leave list, but could be activated this week. The organization is hopeful that Singer will be available for their upcoming series against the Chicago White Sox. The team has already confirmed Cole Ragans and Jordan Lyles as their starters for Monday and Wednesday. […]
