Chargers Sign Taylor Bertolet

The Los Angeles Chargers have added kicker Taylor Bertolet to their practice squad on Thursday. The team did this as insurance in case Dustin Hopkins (quad) is unable to play in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns. Bertolet has never played in an NFL game, which makes him tough to trust as a streaming option. […]

Brian Hoyer Placed On Injured Reserve

New England Patriots quarterback Brian Hoyer (concussion) has been placed on the injured reserve. That means, Hoyer will miss at least the next four weeks of action. Mac Jones (ankle) is still banged up as well, so Bailey Zappe could be asked to start in Week 5. At this moment, it sounds like the Pats […]

Rondale Moore Lands On Injury Report

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore (knee) has been added to the injury report after getting in a limited practice session on Thursday. This sounds like a new injury since Moore was dealing with a hamstring problem prior to this injury. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see what happens during Friday's practice. Greg […]

Gerald Everett Gets In Limited Practice Session

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (hamstring) was added to the injury report on Thursday. Everett was only able to get in a limited practice session, which is concerning. It sounds like the injury could've occurred in practice, but regardless it's a problem for fantasy managers. What happens on Friday will have a big […]

Hunter Renfrow Gets In A Full Practice

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (concussion) was able to get in a full practice session on Thursday. He shed his non-contact jersey and went from limited to full for this practice. It sounds Renfrow should be able to suit up against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 5. He should be worth starting […]

Keenan Allen Misses Another Practice

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) was not able to suit up for Thursday's practice. The 30-year-old hasn't been able to do much since aggravating his hamstring last Thursday. That being said, fantasy managers should consider Allen doubtful for the Week 5 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Joshua Palmer and Gerald Everett are […]

Tyreek Hill Lands On Injury Report

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) was limited during Thursday's practice. This appears to be a new injury because he was able to fully practice on Wednesday. It sounds like Hill was fine after Thursday's limited session, but fantasy managers should still be aware of this. Possibly, the Dolphins were just being cautious and […]

David Montgomery Limited During Thursday's Practice

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery (ankle) was limited during Thursday's practice, which is actually a good sign. This was the first time that Montgomery has been able to practice all week. The fact he was limited gives him a chance of suiting up for the Week 5 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Montgomery injured […]

Jake Elliott Is Expected To Miss Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott (ankle) is expected to sit out the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. This was the expectation after the Eagles signed Cameron Dicker to their 53-man roster. Dicker should be the active kicker on Sunday and isn't a terrible streaming option in this hot Philly offense. However, he is […]

Mo Alie-Cox A Touchdown-Dependent Option For Week 5

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox finally put together a strong performance during the last week's contest. He hauled in all six of his targets for 85 yards and two touchdowns in their loss. However, Alie-Cox offered very little to the offense before that breakout performance. That being said, it's going to be tough to […]

Parris Campbell Barely On The Fantasy Radar

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell was expected to have a big role on this team coming into the season. However, the 25-year-old has nine receptions for 90 yards in the first four games of the season. He is looking like a distant third receiver to Michael Pittman Jr. and Alec Pierce. That being said, […]

Alec Pierce Has Low-End Flex Appeal

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce is coming off a decent three-catch performance in Week 4. He could see an increased workload with featured back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) on the sideline. That being said, the Colts will likely need to lean on the passing game more against the Denver Broncos on Thursday night. All of […]

Michael Pittman Jr. A Low-End WR2 Versus Broncos

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is likely to be the focal point of this offense heading into their Week 5 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Star running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) has already been ruled out for this contest. That being said, Pittman is likely going to get plenty of targets with the […]

Nyheim Hines Jumps On The Flex Radar

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines will be the featured back for the upcoming matchup against the Denver Broncos on Thursday. Star back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is sidelined, so Hines will be asked to step up here. The expectation is that Phillip Lindsay and possibly Deon Jackson would see carries behind Hines. However, Hines remains […]

Matt Ryan Likely To Struggle Versus Broncos

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan is coming off his strongest game of the season in Week 4. He has thrown for over 350 passing yards in two of the first four games. He'll likely be asked to pass the ball often this week with star running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) sidelined. At first glance, Ryan […]

Gordon Hayward Doubtful For Wednesday's Preseason Game

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (knee) is considered doubtful for Wednesday's preseason matchup against the Indiana Pacers. He missed their first preseason game due to a concussion. Now, Hayward is dealing with a banged up knee that he injured during practice. He should be fine for the regular season, but who knows if he'll actually […]

Nikola Jokic Practices On Tuesday

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (wrist) was a full participant during Tuesday's practice, according to head coach Mike Malone. The superstar big man came out of Monday's preseason contest with a wrist injury. It doesn't sound like this is a serious injury, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned about Jokic missing time. The expectation is […]

Brandon Ingram Sitting During Tuesday's Exhibition

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason matchup against the Chicago Bulls. This isn't a significant injury, but the Pelicans didn't want to risk it in a meaningless game. Trey Murphy should see additional run with Ingram on the sideline. At this point, it's hard to justify taking […]

Bulls Could Rotate Starting Point Guard Spot

The Chicago Bulls might not have a full-time starting point guard to begin the season. Head coach Billy Donovan mentioned that he could rotate the starting guard spot while Lonzo Ball (knee) recovers. That means, Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu, and Goran Dragic could all be in the mix. Possibly, Alex Caruso gets some minutes at […]

Justice Hill Expected To Miss Time

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) is expected to be sidelined for an unknown amount of time, according to head coach Jim Harbaugh. The team doesn't believe it's a serious injury, but they haven't given a timetable for his return. It's a hamstring injury and those do have a tendency to linger. Fantasy managers […]

Jake Elliott Has A Chance To Play In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott (leg) has a chance of suiting up in Week 5, according to Eagles special teams coordinator Michael Clay. The team has praised Elliott's toughness and are optimistic that Elliott will be able to suit up against the Arizona Cardinals. However, the team has signed Cameron Dicker to the 53-man roster […]

Melvin Gordon III Viewed As Featured Back

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (neck) was limited during Tuesday's walkthrough practice. Fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned as it sounds like Gordon will be fine for Thursday night football. Broncos offensive coordinator Justin Otten mentioned that the plan is for Gordon to be the featured back going forward. They plan on getting Mike […]

Keenan Allen Considered Day-To-Day

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) is currently considered day-to-day after missing each of the last two weeks. It sounds like Allen was progressing well, but suffered a setback late last week which caused him to sit out in Week 4. The organization continues to be cautious with Allen, so fantasy managers won't […]

Cody Whitehair To Miss Significant Time

Chicago Bears guard Cody Whitehair (knee) is not believed to have suffered a season-ending injury, according to head coach Matt Eberflus. He exited in the second quarter of Sunday's game due to a knee issue. It's apparently a significant enough injury that Whitehair is going to miss multiple weeks. The organization is hopeful to get […]

Cairo Santos Returns To The Team

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (personal) missed the Week 4 matchup against the New York Giants. The 30-year-old was dealing with a personal matter and was away from the team for a week. Now, Santos has returned and should resume his role as the primary kicker in Chicago. Michael Badgley started in his place on […]

Phillip Lindsay Could Get More Involved

Indianapolis Colts running back Phillip Lindsay spent all the offseason with Indy before being a final cut during training camp. Now, Lindsay is back with the Colts and could start factoring into their gameplan. Head coach Frank Reich mentioned that Lindsay would begin getting into the equation, assuming Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is unable to play […]

Darryl Johnson Out Indefinitely

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Darryl Johnson (foot) is expected to miss significant time after suffering an injury in Week 4. The fourth-year pro suffered a legitimate foot injury during the win over the Detroit Lions. The former seventh rounder is out indefinitely, but this isn't a huge loss for the Seahawks. Johnson only played 19% […]

Evan Mobley To Miss A Few Weeks

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (ankle) is expected to miss the next week or two while he recovers from an injury. This means we probably won't see Mobley during the preseason. It's uncertain if Mobley will be ready for the season opener, but should be ready shortly after that. This minor injury shouldn't lower his […]

Franz Wagner Resting During Monday's Preseason Contest

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (rest) won't suit up for Monday's preseason contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. Wagner played a ton during the Eurobasket tournament this summer, so the team will be cautious with him. They will allow Wagner to sit out this meaningless game. He should be fine going forward and is expected to […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Dealing With Significant Illness

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns was recently released after he was required to stay in the hospital due to an illness. The 26-year-old wasn't cleared to walk until Saturday. Towns didn't give many details on the situation, but appears to be doing better now. The expectation is that Towns will be ready for opening night. […]
