Kai Jones Requests Trade From Hornets

Charlotte Hornets center Kai Jones has requested a trade from the organization on Monday. The 22-year-old has been away from the team recently due to personal reasons. Jones has put himself in a bad spot after calling out teammates on social media and missing workouts. It sounds like the Hornets are trying to separate themselves […]

Jonnu Smith Continues To Have Success

Atlanta Falcons tight end Jonnu Smith has turned into a viable fantasy option over the last few weeks. On Sunday, Smith hauled in six of his seven targets for 70 yards in the win over the Houston Texans. The Falcons continue to favor their tight ends as Smith and Kyle Pitts combined for 13 receptions […]

Drake London Hauls In Six Receptions

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London surprisingly saw a high usage during Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Houston Texans. The second-year wideout hauled in six of his nine targets for 78 yards in the win. This was a nice outing for London who made a couple of tough catches late in the fourth quarter. […]

Kyle Pitts Targeted 11 Times In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts was able to put together a bounce back performance during the Week 5 matchup against the Houston Texans. Pitts appeared to be the focal point of this offense during this game. He hauled in seven of his 11 targets for 87 yards in the win over the Texans. Hopefully, […]

Bijan Robinson Catches Touchdown In Win

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had a frustrating day on the ground during Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Houston Texans. The rookie back rushed 14 times for 46 yards, while adding two receptions for 12 yards and a touchdown in the win. Robinson was the clear No. 1 back, but he struggled to […]

Desmond Ridder Throws For Over 300 Yards

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder was able to put together a strong outing versus the Houston Texans in Week 5. The second-year signal-caller completed 28-of-37 passing attempts for 329 yards with one touchdown and zero interceptions in the win over Houston. Ridder also added 10 yards on four rushing attempts with another score on the […]

Ben Skowronek Practices On Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Ben Skowronek (Achilles) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. This is good news after Skowronek was limited during Wednesday's session. The 26-year-old suffered an Achilles injury in Week 3, but played in Week 4. The third-year wideout has only been targeted four times through the first four games this […]

Zack Martin Gets In Full Practice Session

Dallas Cowboys offensive guard Zack Martin (thigh) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. It's good to see Martin back on the field after he sat out of Wednesday's session. Head coach Mike McCarthy said his absence on Wednesday was largely due to rest purposes. The six-time All-Pro should be back on the field for […]

Falcons Defense Avoidable For Week 5

The Atlanta Falcons defense has surprisingly held their own early in the season. They've allowed less than 20 points in half their games this season. The biggest problem for this defense has been the fact they've been unable to create turnovers. They only created one turnover in two of their last three games. This defensive […]

Younghoe Koo Hopeful To Bounce Back In Week 5

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo is looking to bounce back after a quiet day in Week 4. Koo didn't attempt a field goal and made his only extra point attempt in the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Koo has been a reliable option, but the lack of opportunities is hurting his fantasy value. […]

Jauan Jennings Limited On Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (shin) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice. It's good to see Jennings back on the practice field after he missed practice all week before sitting out in Week 4. Fellow wide receiver Deebo Samuel (knee, ribs) was also limited on Thursday as well. The absence of these […]

Roschon Johnson Won't Return On Thursday

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's Week 5 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Johnson went down in the second quarter and won't return after suffering a concussion. Before going down, Johnson rushed the ball three times for 19 yards. His absence will mean increased carries […]

Jaire Alexander Practices On Thursday

Green Bay Packers defensive back Jaire Alexander (back) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. The All-Pro corner has missed each of the last two games due to a back issue. He was a limited participant last week as well before he sat out of last Thursday's game against the Detroit Lions. The hope is […]

Jeremy Reaves, Christian Holmes Ruled Out

Washington Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves (knee) and defensive back Christian Holmes (hamstring) have been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Chicago Bears. Both players were forced to exit during the first half of this Week 5 matchup. It sounds like the Commanders are going to play it safe and have both players sit out […]

Ayo Dosunmu Could Become Starter

Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu recently signed a three-year deal with the organization. The former second-round pick is expected to be in the mix for the starting point guard spot. The expectation is that Dosunmu will compete with Jevon Carter and Coby White for the starting gig ahead of the season opener on October 25th. […]

Quentin Grimes Looking To Improve Offensively

New York Knicks guard Quentin Grimes is hopeful to improve on the offensive end of the ball this season. The 23-year-old is entering his third season and has a desire to increase his responsibilities on offense. Grimes has a reputation of being a 3-and-D player, but wants to be able to contribute more than that. […]

Ausar Thompson Could Be Day 1 Starter

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Ausar Thompson appears to have already impressed the team. The Pistons used the No. 5 selection in this year's draft to select Thompson, so they have high expectations for him. There's a chance that Thompson is a Day 1 starter in the Pistons rotation. His defense is impressive and the Pistons could […]

Christian Braun Expected To Play Bigger Role

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Christian Braun could see himself with a bigger role on the team next season. It sounds like the organization believes Braun could be a critical piece to this rotation. The team praised his defensive toughness and fundamentals during the postseason. The 22-year-old is expected to have more minutes coming his way with […]

Jonnu Smith Could Have Streaming Value

Atlanta Falcons tight end Jonnu Smith has surprisingly been productive early in the season. He posted his best game of the season last week with six receptions for 95 yards in the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Smith has four receptions in each of his last three contests. He has been the most consistent receiving […]

Kyle Pitts Has TE2 Value

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts continues to struggle with two receptions in three of the first four games this season. The young tight end has a ton of potential, but the Falcons just can't seem to get him involved. Last week, Pitts finished with two receptions for 21 yards in the loss to the […]

Drake London Hopeful To Bounce Back

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London has been unable to get significantly involved in the passing game this season. The second-year wideout has been held to under 35 receiving yards in three of the first four games this season. The Falcons have struggled to move the ball on offense and it continues to hurt London's […]

Tyler Allgeier A Risky Choice For Week 5

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier has seen his role continue to decrease as the season goes on. Last week, Allgeier saw only seven carries and two targets in what ended up being a blowout loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The expectation is that Allgeier will continue to be involved, but his value is limited […]

Bijan Robinson Should Continue To Succeed

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has been one of the few bright spots for this team early in the season. The rookie back rushed for over 100 yards and hauled in five receptions in the Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He might've done more, but the Falcons had to abandon the running […]

Desmond Ridder Remains Avoidable For Week 5

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder has been unable to find much success early in the season. Despite that, head coach Arthur Smith is sticking with Ridder under center for at least one more game. Last week, Ridder took four sacks and threw two interceptions as the Falcons lost a lopsided game to the Jacksonville Jaguars. […]

Miguel Rojas Continues Making Progress

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Miguel Rojas (hand) was able to play in a simulated game on Wednesday. This is good news after Rojas missed the final two games of the regular season due to a left hand injury. It sounds like Rojas is making good progress and will hopefully be ready for Game 1 of […]

Max Fried On Track For NLDS

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried (finger) appears to be on track for Game 2 of the National League Division Series. The left-hander wore a protective bandage across the blister on his finger during his 76-pitch simulated game. However, Fried won't be allowed to wear the bandage in an actual game. The hope is that […]

Jacob Stallings Catching In Game 2

Miami Marlins catcher Jacob Stallings is in the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's Game 2 of the Wild Card round versus the Philadelphia Phillies. Nick Fortes got the nod behind the plate for Game 1. He went 0-for-2 with a strikeout, so the Marlins decided to go in a different direction for Game 2. Stallings […]

Carlos Santana Remains In The Lineup

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Carlos Santana (hand) will remain in the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's Game 2 of the Wild Card round versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. Santana jammed his hand while making a tag during Game 1, but it appears to be only a minor issue. The veteran slugger remained in the lineup for […]

Brandon Marsh Remains On The Bench

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh remains on the bench once again ahead of Wednesday's Game 2 of the Wild Card round versus the Miami Marlins. The 25-year-old sat out Game 1 versus a southpaw and he'll do it again on Wednesday. The Phillies will elect to use Cristian Pache, Johan Rojas and Nick Castellanos in […]

Jon Berti Starting At Shortstop On Tuesday

Miami Marlins shortstop Jon Berti is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's Game 1 of the Wild Card round versus the Philadelphia Phillies. Normally, Garrett Hampson would cover shortstop as he did a majority of the time down the stretch of the season. However, the Marlins will ride the hot hand here with Berti. Over […]
