TreVeyon Henderson - Fantasy Football Rookie Rankings, RB Draft Sleepers

Legit Breakouts or Flukes? TreVeyon Henderson, Jalen Nailor, Dillon Gabriel Fantasy Football Outlooks

Breakout performances can happen at any time in the season. Players who most fantasy managers thought were busts, or at least not quite as talented as they suspected early in the season, can put up big numbers in specific games based on a variety of factors. Injuries to other players on their team at the […]


Trey Benson - Fantasy Football Rankings, RB, NFL Draft Sleepers,

When Will Trey Benson Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 11 (2025)

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) has now been out of action for five games and six total weeks due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 4. He had been set to take over the lead running back role after the injury to RB James Conner (ankle). Benson's injury placed him on […]


Bucky Irving - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

When Will Bucky Irving Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 11 (2025)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (shoulder, foot) has now been out for most of the season with injuries to his shoulder and foot. He was able to play in four contests and scored an average of 18.0 PPR fantasy points per game. So he's dearly missed by all fantasy managers who drafted him. […]


Omarion Hampton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie RB Draft Sleepers

When Will Omarion Hampton Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 11 (2025)

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) didn't play in Week 10. It's now the fifth consecutive game he's missed due to the ankle injury he suffered in Week 5. Hampton's rookie season came to a grinding (temporary) halt when a defender awkwardly stepped on the back of his ankle, and it twisted inwards […]


Devin Singletary - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups - Brian Robinson Jr., Devin Singletary, Bhayshul Tuten Fantasy Football Outlooks

There are still quite a few running backs floating around on waivers in around 50 percent (or more) of leagues that you should probably consider picking up for your teams ahead of Week 11. The prospect of getting a good RB without having to trade for one is quite enticing. Lots of fantasy teams are […]


Tyjae Spears - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups - Tyjae Spears, Tyler Allgeier, Emari Demercado Fantasy Football Outlooks

The running back position is one marked by scarcity in the NFL. It's hard to find starting running backs that are must-starts in your fantasy football leagues, especially as the season wears on. We've already seen the New York Giants backfield go from a gold mine to a landfill. When running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) was their […]


Tez Johnson - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Rankings, Deeper League Sleepers

Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups - Troy Franklin, Tez Johnson, Parker Washington Fantasy Football Outlooks

We're almost through 10 weeks of the 2025 NFL season. Yet it's never too late to hunt the waiver wire for pickups that could help you win your leagues, give you a solid starter for the rest of the season, or even help you win a matchup or two down the road in fantasy football. […]


Khalil Shakir - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Khalil Shakir, Jordan Addison, Deebo Samuel Sr.: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 10

It would be nice to have a trio of wide receivers like CeeDee Lamb, Rashee Rice, and Tee Higgins on your fantasy football teams. That way you'd hardly have to worry about who to start and just roll the three out each week. Well... until bye weeks come! Those three are all on bye and […]


DK Metcalf - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injuries

DK Metcalf, Marvin Harrison Jr., Josh Downs: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 10

We're about to start Week 10 of the 2025 NFL season -- well, the main slate of games at least. Thursday's game already happened, and it was an abysmal low-scoring affair between the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders. Hopefully you didn't start any pass-catcher other than Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin in that […]


Jaxson Dart - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie QB Sleepers

3 Must-Have Fantasy Football Rookies to Target: Second-Half Risers, Potential League-Winners

The second half of the season for rookie players is often one that's marked by big improvements in their games. It takes time to get accustomed to playing in the NFL, learn a new offense, and learn an NFL offense for the first time in a player's career. For fantasy football, this means we can […]


Alec Pierce - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

3 Second-Half Fantasy Football Breakouts - Risers and Trade Targets

Finding players that mostly struggled through the first part of the season, but appear to be on the verge of a breakout, or have already had big games that could constitute a breakout, is one of the best ways to gain an edge in your fantasy football leagues. It's not just rookies that you have […]


Bam Knight - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Rankings, NFL DFS Picks

Should I Pickup Bam Knight or Emari Demercado? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 10

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) has now missed four games due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 4. He was placed on injured reserve after that game and remains there today. And it doesn't look like he'll be able to return in Week 10, either. Benson missed practice on Wednesday. After […]


Isiah Pacheco - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News

Is Isiah Pacheco The Starting Running Back For The Chiefs When He Returns? Week 10 Injury Update

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco (knee) missed his team's Week 9 game against the Buffalo Bills with a knee sprain. In his place, RB Kareem Hunt took over starting duties and handled the majority of the backfield work. This season hasn't been great for Pacheco drafters, who chose him around the fifth and […]


Jayden Daniels - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Should I Hold Jayden Daniels for Fantasy Football? Week 10 Injury Update

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) suffered a dislocated elbow while being tackled to the ground on a rush attempt in his team's blowout loss against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9. The gruesome-looking injury is the third he's suffered this year. He previously missed time due to a knee sprain, which held him out […]


Puka Nacua - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News - icon rotoballer

Will Puka Nacua still be the Rams WR1 When He Returns?

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (ribs) wasn't able to finish his Week 9 game against the New Orleans Saints. He caught seven of his eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown before taking a shot to the chest and being pulled from the game. He wasn't able to return, and in his […]


Omarion Hampton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie RB Draft Sleepers

Is Omarion Hampton The Starting Running Back For The Chargers When He Returns? Week 10 Injury Update

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) injured his ankle in Week 5 of the 2025 season, in the midst of what looked like a massive breakout campaign. He was on an absolute heater, having scored double-digit PPR fantasy points in three straight games. Unfortunately, he had to be placed on injured reserve, where […]


Dont'e Thornton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups - Jack Bech, Dont'e Thornton Jr., Ryan Flournoy Fantasy Football Outlooks

The Las Vegas Raiders traded away wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars right before the trade deadline, creating a vacuum in targets that will have to be filled in by the team's remaining pass-catchers. Wide receivers Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr. appear to be in line to benefit immediately, however much that […]


D'Andre Swift - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is D'Andre Swift The Starting Running Back For The Bears When He Returns? Week 10 Injury Update

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was ruled out before his team's Week 9 game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a groin injury. Apparently, he had been dealing with the injury for some time, as he was listed on previous weeks' injury reports with the aliment. In his place, rookie RB Kyle Monangai (ankle) […]


Tre Tucker - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Is Tre Tucker the WR1 for the Raiders Now? Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 10

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker has quite a different fantasy football outlook after Tuesday's Raiders trade news -- WR Jakobi Meyers was sent to the Jacksonville Jaguars for fourth- and sixth-round picks. Meyers was Tucker's biggest remaining obstacle to getting consistent high target volume among the Raiders WRs. While tight end Brock Bowers […]


Jauan Jennings - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Is Jauan Jennings the WR1 for the 49ers Now? Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 10

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught four of his five targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in his team's Week 9 win over the New York Giants. It was the third week in a row that Jennings led all receivers on his team in receiving yards. The 9ers have been devastated by […]


Chris Rodriguez Jr. - Fantasy Football Rankings, Running Back Sleepers, RB Handcuffs

Is Chris Rodriguez the Starting Running Back for the Commanders Now? Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 10

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez had his best game of the season in Week 9, rushing 12 times for 64 yards and a touchdown in the blowout loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Meanwhile, rookie RB Jacory Croskey-Merrit, the starter up to this point, struggled yet again. He averaged under 3.6 yards per carry, failed […]


Joe Mixon - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Joe Mixon The Starting Running Back For The Texans When He Returns? Week 10 Injury Update

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle/foot) continues to rehab an ankle and foot injury that he suffered in the offseason before the 2025 season started. He hasn't played in a game yet and remains on injured reserve. It's been a frustrating situation for fantasy managers who drafted him. His ADP remained inside the top-8 […]


Omarion Hampton - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie RB Draft Sleepers

Is Omarion Hampton Out for the Season? Injury Update on Coming Back for Fantasy Football (Week 10)

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) was in the midst of a meteoric rise in fantasy football rankings, seemingly solidifying himself as one of the best fantasy tailbacks in all of football, before he suffered an ankle injury in Week 5. He hasn't played in a game since then as he continues to […]


Brian Thomas Jr - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Is Jakobi Meyers or Brian Thomas Jr. the WR1 for the Jaguars Now? Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 10

In a recent move, just before the 2025 NFL trade deadline, the Las Vegas Raiders traded wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jacksonville will receive Meyers, and the Raiders will get fourth and sixth-round picks in exchange. It's not a total surprise, as the Jaguars WR room has been in turmoil all season. […]


Travis Hunter - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Picks

Is Travis Hunter Out for the Season? Injury Update on Coming Back for Fantasy Football (Week 10)

Jacksonville Jaguars WR/CB Travis Hunter (knee) was placed on injured reserve after suffering a knee injury in practice ahead of his team's Week 9 game. The aliment was a surprise for fantasy football managers, as he had managed to stay healthy through all of the team's games up to that point. Hunter looked to be […]


Brandon Aiyuk - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News

Is Brandon Aiyuk Out for the Season? Injury Update on Coming Back for Fantasy Football (Week 10)

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) still hasn't played a single snap of football in 2025 after suffering a devastating knee injury in Week 7 of 2024. His leg was struck by a defender while it was planted in the ground, causing his knee to buckle. The former Arizona State Sun Devil was […]


Trey Benson - Fantasy Football Rankings, RB, NFL Draft Sleepers,

Is Trey Benson Out for the Season? Injury Update on Coming Back for Fantasy Football (Week 10)

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) was placed on injured reserve in Week 4, just one game after the team's starting RB, James Conner (ankle), was placed on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. Benson hasn't played a game since, and Conner is out for the season. In Benson's place, RBs Bam Knight, […]


Tank Bigsby - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire, Draft Sleepers, Rankings

Should I Pickup Will Shipley or Tank Bigsby? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 10

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) had to exit his team's Week 8 contest early with a groin injury. It's not yet known exactly if he'll play in Week 10. The team had its bye week in Week 9. But we've already seen, in the cases of Carolina Panthers running back Rico Dowdle and […]


Ray Davis - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I Pickup Ray Davis or Ty Johnson? Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 10

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook (ankle/foot) is currently dealing with a lower-leg injury that he suffered late in his team's Week 9 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai and Carolina Panthers RB Rico Dowdle proved that it pays off to churn backup running backs through your rosters in […]


Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Legit Breakouts or Flukes? Colston Loveland, Alec Pierce, Tory Horton Fantasy Football Outlooks

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce, and Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton's Week 9 performances were easily the biggest games they've had this season. With each of these players rostered in under 30 percent of Sleeper fantasy football leagues pre-waivers, it seems that not many fantasy managers were expecting […]
