Diontae Johnson Exits Early In Preseason Finale

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (shoulder) was pulled out of Sunday's preseason finale. He caught a 38-yard pass, but landed awkwardly on his shoulder. He was able to exit the game and head to the locker room under his own power. This quick exit shouldn't be too alarming to fantasy managers. The Steelers are […]

Mookie Betts To Rest On Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts won't be in the lineup for Monday's contest. Manager Dave Roberts mentioned following Sunday's game that Betts will sit out on Monday. This is odd timing considering that Betts has been on fire at the plate recently. The 29-year-old has four home runs over his last three games. Fantasy […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Remains Out Of The Lineup

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The organization had Acuna sit out Saturday as well, so clearly they want him to get some extra rest. It doesn't sound like the 24-year-old is dealing with an injury. Robbie Grossman will cover […]

Justin Verlander Removed From Sunday's Start

Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander (calf) was removed early during Sunday's start against the Baltimore Orioles. The veteran right-hander was removed due to right calf discomfort. It sounds like Verlander was removed as a precaution, so it doesn't sound like this is something that will sideline him. The 39-year-old has been fantastic this season, […]

Tyler O'Neill To Sit Out On Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. This appears to be a regular rest day for the 27-year-old outfielder. Although, it's worth noting that O'Neill has been losing a decent amount of playing time to Corey Dickerson. In fact, Dickerson will start over […]

Kyle Finnegan Notches Eighth Save

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Kyle Finnegan was called upon to protect a one-run lead against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday. The right-hander needed only 10 pitches to record his eighth save in 12 attempts this season. At this point, Finnegan appears to be the primary closer for Washington. The 30-year-old isn't a great fantasy option, […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Hauls In Three Receptions

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is being viewed as a possible breakout player heading into next season. The 24-year-old hauled in 88 receptions for over 1,000 receiving yards in 17 games with the Colts in 2021. The expectation is that he'll continue to be a focal point of this offense. During the preseason […]

Dezmon Patmon Finishes Preseason On Strong Note

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Dezmon Patmon has been one of the better surprises for this team during training camp. The former sixth-round pick went over 100 receiving yards during their last game. On Saturday, Patmon hauled in all three of his targets for 50 yards in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 24-year-old […]

Phillip Lindsay Rushes Seven Times In Preseason Finale

Indianapolis Colts running back Phillip Lindsay saw a fairly significant workload during Saturday's preseason finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 28-year-old has been unable to make much noise during the preseason. On Saturday, Lindsay rushed a team-hgih seven times for 23 yard and one touchdown in the loss. Obviously, the touchdown is nice to […]

Ian Happ Provides All The Offense

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ collected the only two hits of the day for this offense. It was a tough day for all of the Cubs hitters against right-hander Freddy Peralta. Luckily for the Cubs, Peralta was lifted from the game after six no-hit innings. After that, Happ immediately stepped up and drilled a two-run […]

Freddy Peralta Tosses Six No-Hit Innings

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta looked fantastic during Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs. The right-hander tossed six no-hit innings in what ended up being a no-decision for him. Peralta struck out five batters and only allowed one walk through his six innings of work. Unfortunately, Peralta was pulled from the game and right-hander […]

Trevor Story Expected To Return On Saturday

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story (wrist) is expected to return from the injured list on Saturday. That means, the right-hander slugger should be activated prior to Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The 29-year-old is working his way back from a fractured wrist. He appears ready to return, which is good news for […]

Cade Cavalli Has Horrendous Debut

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Cade Cavalli made his anticipated debut against the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. The right-hander was crushed for seven runs in 4 1/3 innings in the loss. He did strike out six batters, but also walked two and hit three batters. It was his first game, so hopefully it's only up from […]

Jose Leclerc Earns Second Save

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Jose Leclerc was able to escape with his second save of the season on Friday. The right-hander came in with a three-run lead, but that quickly changed. Leclerc walked Jeimer Candelario and then allowed to two-run home run to Riley Greene. After that, Leclerc gave up a single to Victor Reyes, […]

Ty Montgomery Exits Friday's Preseason Game

New England Patriots running back Ty Montgomery (leg) was carted off the field during Friday's preseason matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. He went down after a run in the first quarter and was helped to the sideline. Montgomery ended up being carted off, which is never a good sign. The organization is unsure of […]

Derek Rivers To Miss 2022 Season

Houston Texans defensive end Derek Rivers (biceps) will miss the entire 2022 season. This is a shame because Rivers was reportedly having a strong camp. Sadly, the 28-year-old has suffered a torn biceps, which will cost him the season. The former third-round pick has failed to establish himself in the league. Rivers has recorded 16 […]

Tyus Bowser Placed On PUP List

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Tyus Bowser (Achilles) has been placed on the reserve/PUP list. That means, Bowser will miss the first four weeks of the regular season. The 27-year-old suffered the injury during Week 18 of last season. Head coach John Harbaugh mentioned that Bowser should be ready for training camp, but clearly that didn't happen. […]

Titans Host Dazz Newsome For Workout

Free-agent wide receiver Dazz Newsome had a workout with the Tennessee Titans on Friday. The former sixth-round pick wasn't able to make much noise last season. He suffered a broken collarbone and ended up only playing in three games for the Chicago Bears. The 23-year-old does have some potential, so it wouldn't be shocking to […]

Rigoberto Sanchez To Miss The Entire Season

Indianapolis Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez (Achilles) won't suit up this season after suffering an injury during practice. It appears the 27-year-old suffered a torn Achilles while running during practice on Tuesday. This is a shame with the regular season quickly approaching. Now, the Colts must scramble to get another punter and get him ready for […]

Eddy Pineiro Cut By Jets

The New York Jets have decided to release kicker Eddy Pineiro on Tuesday. He was battling with Greg Zuerlein for the starting kicker gig. Pineiro did fine with the Jets last year as he only missed one field goal attempt in five games. However, it sounds like he struggled during training camp, so the Jets […]

Travis Etienne Jr. Expected To Be Lead Back

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. is likely to be the lead back for the team to begin the season. The second-year back has looked fairly solid during training camp. It sounds like the team wants to use Etienne as a runner, pass catcher, and even have him play some receiver. The expectation is […]

Mike Davis Could Have Significant Workload Early On

Baltimore Ravens running back Mike Davis is likely to get plenty of touches early in the season. Fellow back Gus Edwards (knee) is going to miss the first four games considering he was placed on the PUP list. Also, J.K. Dobbins (knee) is expected to be eased into action after his ACL injury from last […]

Josh Jacobs Likely To Be Stuck In Committee

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs is expected to be part of a committee approach to begin the season. The former first round pick put together back-to-back 1,000 yard seasons to begin his career. However, Jacobs only managed 872 yards last season, so the Raiders decided to add reinforcements. There was some hope that […]

Logan Thomas Activated Off PUP List

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (knee) has been activated off the PUP list on Monday. This is great news as the Commanders desperately need Thomas back on the field. He's working his way back from a torn ACL and MCL that he suffered back in December. That being said, it wouldn't be shocking to […]

Jordan Jenkins Suffers Torn ACL

Las Vegas Raiders linebacker Jordan Jenkins (knee) will miss the entire season after suffering an injury this weekend. The 28-year-old appears to have torn his ACL during their preseason matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The former third round pick was expected to be depth, but this is still a blow to their defense. Last season, […]

Tom Brady Expected To Practice On Monday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (personal) is expected to return to the team on Monday. The veteran quarterback was reportedly vacationing with his family over the last week and a half. Brady was seen at the team's headquarters and is expected to suit up for practice on Monday. He'll return to a banged up […]

Kenneth Walker III No Timetable For Return

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) underwent surgery and doesn't have a timetable to return, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Originally, Walker was expected back for Week 1, but that doesn't sound like it's going to happen. Rashaad Penny will be the primary back until Walker is ready to return. Travis Homer […]

Mark Canha Blasts Two Homers

New York Mets outfielder Mark Canha made a huge impact during Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. He went 3-for-5 with two home runs and five RBI in the come back victory. The right-handed slugger crushed a three-run home run off Connor Brogdon in the seventh inning. Then, Canha delivered a two-run homer off reliever […]

Jakob Junis Avoids Serious Injury

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Jakob Junis (hand) was forced to leave early during Sunday's start against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He was drilled by a 108 mph comebacker on the hand. The x-rays came back negative, so it sounds like the right-hander has avoided major injury. The organization will have Junis undergo further testing, so […]

JT Brubaker Cleared To Start On Tuesday

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher JT Brubaker (finger) has been cleared to make his start against the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday. He was lifted during Thursday's outing due to a blister on his pitching hand. It sounds like the Pirates caught the injury early and avoided a long term problem. He'll carry a 4.19 ERA and […]
