Brian Buckey - RotoBaller

485 articles

Brian Buckey is a sports writer with a passion for fantasy sports. Born and raised in Toledo, Ohio and an Indiana University graduate, Brian was hooked on fantasy sports since his first fantasy baseball league in junior high when he took a flier on a young St. Louis Cardinals prospect named Albert Pujols. He's been scouring the minor leagues and the fantasy waiver wire for the next big thing ever since.

Sam LaPorta Hauls In Memorable Touchdown Reception At Chicago

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta found the end zone once again against Chicago as the Lions defeated the Bears 34-17 on Sunday afternoon. LaPorta caught four passes for 43 yards and a touchdown. He hauled in a 21-yard touchdown pass on a memorable fake which saw quarterback Jared Goff stumble and running back Jahmyr […]


Amon-Ra St. Brown Has Nice Week 16 Game In Chicago

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown hauled in six passes for 70 receiving yards and a touchdown in a Week 16 victory at the Chicago Bears. St. Brown did not have one of his boom games but was productive in the team's 34-17 win. A week after seeing a season-high 18 targets, St. Brown […]


Jameson Williams Torches Bears Defense

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams got loose for an 82-yard touchdown reception and lit up the stat sheet with five catches for 143 receiving yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 win over the division-rival Chicago Bears. He did most of his damage on one play which he can do with his elite […]


Jahmyr Gibbs Comes Through Against Bears

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had a productive game in the team's win at the Chicago Bears in Week 16. The talented running back rushed 23 times for 109 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown and added four catches for 45 receiving yards. Gibbs lived up to high expectations after holding onto the lead-back […]


Jared Goff Has Big Day Against Bears

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff had a nice fantasy performance against the Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon. He completed 23 of 32 passes for 336 yards and three touchdown passes. Goff found Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Sam LaPorta for his touchdown passes and was sharp in leading the Lions to a big 34-17 […]


Tank Dell Will Stay In A Kansas City Hospital Overnight

Houston Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) suffered a significant knee injury and will stay in a Kansas City hospital overnight on Saturday night for further evaluation. Dell caught six passes for 98 yards and a touchdown before his left leg was rolled up on during his touchdown catch. Soon after […]


Luke Musgrave Questionable For Week 16

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 16 against the New Orleans Saints. Musgrave has been out since Week 5 with his injury and could make a return this week. His presence would be less relevant for his fantasy value and more tied to the value of Tucker […]


Bub Means Likely Out For Rest Of Season

New Orleans Saints coach Darren Rizzi said wide receiver Bub Means (ankle) had a setback and probably won't return this season. Means filled in this season for a depleted wide receiver corps for the Saints and recorded nine catches for 118 yards and a touchdown. He will look to next season to recover and be […]


Bradley Chubb Will Not Be Activated For Week 16

Miami Dolphins pass rusher Bradley Chubb (knee) will not be activated by the team prior to its game against San Francisco in Week 16. Chubb is working his way back from a serious knee injury he suffered late last season. The Dolphins won't have their talented outside pass rusher back in action this week and […]


Spencer Rattler To Start With Derek Carr Out

New Orleans quarterback Spencer Rattler will start in place of injured starter Derek Carr (hand). Carr did not progress enough during the week to get back to active status for the Week 16 game at Green Bay on Monday night. Rattler spelled Jake Haener last week after Haener earned the start against Washington in Carr's […]


Alvin Kamara Ruled Out For Week 16

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (groin) has been ruled out by the team for Week 16's game at Green Bay. Kamara will miss the matchup with the Packers this week and look to rebound to be available for Week 17 against Las Vegas. Kendre Miller will be the lead back for the Saints […]


Cade Otton Downgraded To Out For Week 16

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday night's game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. The Bucs will be without Otton and will play Payne Durham at tight end in his absence. Otton was a big pass-catching threat at the position but Durham has caught just […]


Lions D/ST Should Bounce Back In Week 16

The Detroit Lions D/ST had a rough outing last week against quarterback Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. The Lions allowed 48 points to the Bills and scored negative fantasy points. Look for that to change in Week 16 at the Chicago Bears. The Lions sacked Bears quarterback Caleb Williams five times in the last […]


Jake Bates Looks Like A Starting Option In Week 16

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates can be started with confidence in Week 16 at the Chicago Bears. He is coming off a game against Buffalo in which he missed a 52-yard field goal but made all six of his extra points. The 52-yarder was his only attempt of the game so he will look to […]


Sam LaPorta Looks Like Good Option In Week 16

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta hasn't had the monster season that many were predicting but he has made some strides over the last few weeks. Ahead of Week 16 at the Chicago Bears, LaPorta is looking like a good option at the tight end position. The Iowa product scored two touchdowns in the Thanksgiving […]


Jameson Williams A Risky Play In Week 16

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has a difficult matchup in Week 16 at the Chicago Bears and makes for a risky play in the fantasy playoffs. The Bears defense allows the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers and Williams was held to five catches for 28 yards when the teams played in Detroit […]


Amon-Ra St. Brown Can Be Trusted In Week 16

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is coming off a monster performance against the Buffalo Bills in Week 15. He faces a tough test in Week 16 at the Chicago Bears but should produce for fantasy managers in the fantasy playoffs. The Bears' defense allows the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this […]


Wait And See On The Role Of Craig Reynolds

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds is a popular waiver-wire addition ahead of Week 16 against the Chicago Bears but it might be best to check on his role and usage before plugging him into lineups. With David Montgomery (knee) out, it is natural to think that Reynolds could step into the tandem running back […]


Jahmyr Gibbs Sets Up Nicely For Big Week 16 Outing

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs is the clear-cut No. 1 option in the team's backfield now that David Montgomery will miss time with a knee injury. The versatile running back has a nice matchup in Week 16 at the Chicago Bears, too. The Bears allow the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs, and […]


Jared Goff Tries To Keep Rolling At Chicago In Week 16

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is coming off his best game of the year in a loss to Buffalo. He will try to continue that positive momentum in a Week 16 matchup at the Chicago Bears. The Bears' defense is tops in the NFL in allowing the fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. It's a […]


Sam LaPorta Busy In Week 15 Loss

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta saw a season-high 10 targets in Week 15's loss to the Buffalo Bills. LaPorta caught seven passes for 111 yards in the contest but did not find the end zone. It was his first game this season with more than 100 receiving yards and the seven catches were also […]


David Montgomery Turns In Fantasy Dud In Week 15

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery carried the ball five times for four rushing yards in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. Montgomery was stymied by the Bills defense on his limited rushing opportunities but he did haul in four passes for 31 receiving yards. The Lions were chasing points for much of this game […]


Jahmyr Gibbs Scores Two Touchdowns In Week 15

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs rushed eight times for 31 yards and a touchdown and caught five passes for 83 yards and a receiving touchdown in the team's Week 15 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Gibbs and the Lions struggled to run the ball most of the game and threw the ball often in […]


Amon-Ra St. Brown Catches Long TD In Big Outing

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught a 66-yard touchdown pass as part of a very productive statistical game in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. St. Brown hauled in 14 passes for 193 receiving yards and a score on 18 targets. His 14 catches were a season-high and his 18 targets tied for […]


Jared Goff Has Huge Fantasy Night In Losing Effort

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff turned in his best fantasy performance of the season in the team's 48-42 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Goff lit up the Bills for 494 passing yards and five passing touchdowns in what turned out to be the highest-scoring NFL game of this season. The Lions' signal caller […]


Aidan O'Connell Questionable Against Atlanta In Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell (knee) is questionable to play against the Atlanta Falcons for Monday Night Football in Week 15. O'Connell did not participate in practice Thursday, Friday, or Saturday and has an official questionable tag heading into Monday night's contest. He has 899 yards passing and four passing touchdowns with three interceptions […]


Maxx Crosby Ruled Out For Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (ankle) is listed as out for the Raiders' Week 15 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football. Crosby has 7.5 sacks this season and 28 solo tackles this season. The talented defensive end is a big name for the Raiders' defense who can turn up the […]


Emari Demercado Lands On Injured Reserve

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado (back) has been placed on the injured reserve. Demercado has 24 rushes for 223 yards and a rushing touchdown this season and has added 16 catches for 104 receiving yards. Demercado's absence will likely open the door for more involvement for backup running back Trey Benson behind starter James […]


Derek Carr Downgraded To Out For Week 15

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (hand, concussion) has been downgraded to out for Week 15 against the Commanders. Jake Haener will earn his first career start for the Saints on Sunday. Carr has passed for 2,145 yards and 15 touchdowns with five interceptions this season. Haener has 177 passing yards and a passing touchdown […]


Commanders Place Noah Brown On Injured Reserve, Activate Jamison Crowder

The Washington Commanders have placed wide receiver Noah Brown (internal injuries) on the injured reserve and have activated wide receiver Jamison Crowder from the reserve/injured list. Brown had 35 catches for 453 yards and a receiving touchdown this season. Crowder will now provide some depth at the wide receiver position for Washington behind Terry McLaurin, […]
