Harrison Butker Misses Monday's Practice

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker (ankle) didn't suit up for practice on Monday. The 27-year-old rolled his ankle during the opening kickoff on Sunday. That forced the Chiefs to lean on safety Justin Reid for kickoffs and two extra points. Luckily, Butker was able to return during the second quarter. Fantasy managers shouldn't be […]

Damien Williams Avoids Serious Injury

Atlanta Falcons running back Damien Williams (ribs) is believed to have avoided serious injury. The 30-year-old mentioned his ribs are sore, but he didn't suffer any broken ribs during their contest with the New Orleans Saints. Williams was forced to exit in the first quarter of Sunday's loss. It sounds like he should be good […]

Parris Campbell Fairly Quiet In Week 1

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell is currently listed as the No. 2 option on the depth chart. However, Michael Pittman Jr. stole the show during the Week 1 matchup with the Houston Texans. Campbell finished with three receptions on four targets for 37 yards in what ended up being a tie game. Honestly, Nyheim […]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. was heavily involved in the passing attack during Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans. The stud wideout hauled in nine of his 13 targets for 121 yards and a touchdown in a tie with Houston. Honestly, Pittman was really the only receiver on this team making […]

Jonathan Taylor Steamrolls Texans

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was projected as one of the best fantasy options heading into the season.

Matt Ryan Throws Over 350 Yards

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan attacked through the air quite a bit during Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans.

The […]

Nelson Velazquez Remains Out On Sunday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Nelson Velazquez (illness) remains out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

He has now converted 16 […]

He continues to close in on […]

Tyrion Davis-Price Inactive Against Bears

San Francisco 49ers running back Tyrion Davis-Price is listed as inactive for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears. This is a bit surprising considering Trey Sermon is off the roster now. Apparently, the 49ers feel comfortable with Elijah Mitchell and Jeff Wilson Jr. as the primary running backs. Davis-Price does have some stash […]

George Kittle Officially Out For Week 1

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) has been officially ruled out for the Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

J.K. Dobbins Unlikely To Play In Week 1

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Week 1 against the New York Jets.

David Bakhtiari Not Expected To Play In Week 1

Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) is not expected to suit up for the Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran tackle tore his ACL in December of last year, which led to him only playing in one game. It doesn't sound like he's quite ready to take the field yet. […]

Chase Young Could Return Around Week 5

Washington Commanders defensive end Chase Young is on a similar timetable to running back Brian Robinson, according to Adam Schefter. It was reported that Robinson is likely to be ready to return by Week 5. It sounds like Young is on a slightly slower timetable, but still should be available to play this season. Young […]

Mo Alie-Cox A Touchdown-Dependent Option

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox is on the top of the depth chart to begin the season. Despite that, Alie-Cox has never surpassed 400 receiving yards in a single season.

Alec Pierce Unlikely To Have Success In Week 1

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce has quietly been making a strong impact during training camp. The rookie wideout is expected to compete with Parris Campbell for the No. 2 role in Indy.

Michael Pittman Jr. Has Low-End WR1 Value

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is coming off a strong campaign where he finished with over 1,000 receiving yards last season. The 24-year-old is looking to add onto that season with new quarterback Matt Ryan under center. The expectation is that Pittman will have a heavy workload which should mean increased value. At […]

Nyheim Hines A Possible Flex Option

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines is expected to have an increased workload this upcoming season.

He'll get a favorable matchup in Week 1 against […]

Jonathan Taylor Has Excellent Matchup Against Texans

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was projected as one of the best fantasy players heading into this season. He's coming off a year where he rushed for 1,811 yards with 18 touchdowns in 17 games. The Colts coaching staff mentioned that they do plan on limiting Taylor more this upcoming season. Despite that, Taylor […]

Matt Ryan Has QB1 Upside

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan will make his team debut against the Houston Texans in Week 1.

Isaiah McKenzie Snags Touchdown In Win Over Rams

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie was a shaky fantasy option heading into Thursday's matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. It was uncertain how the targets would be split up. It was a bit of a mixed result for McKenzie in the season opener. He hauled in two of his three targets for 19 yards […]

Gabe Davis Plays Well In Season Opener

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis was one of the most hyped wideouts heading into the season. The 23-year-old was expected to see an increased workload as the No. 2 option in Buffalo. Well, fantasy managers are certainly happy with the results they got during the season opener. On Thursday, Davis finished with four receptions […]

Dawson Knox Barely Involved On Thursday

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox was unable to make much of an impact during Thursday's season opener against the Los Angeles Rams. To be fair, it wasn't really his fault as the targets weren't there for him. Knox hauled in one of his two targets for five yards in the victory. A majority of […]
