Closers and Saves Report - Week 21 Waiver Wire

The more NFL rumblings we hear, the closer we are to the fantasy baseball playoffs. With sports news fully engrossed with helmets and frostbitten feet, baseball rumbles along through August.

Josh Adams Gets Seven Carries on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams got seven carries on Thursday, picking up 18 yards. It was a disappointing performance for Adams, who averaged just 2.6 yards per carry.

Nelson Agholor Catches a Three-Yard Pass on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor made just one catch in Thursday's preseason game, gaining three yards. Meanwhile, his main competition on the depth chart, rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, went off for 104 yards and a touchdown. Agholor's usage showed that the Eagles consider him a starter, but Arcega-Whiteside's performance could certainly force the hand of […]

Zach Ertz Catches a Pass in Thursday's Preseason Game

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz made an appearance in Thursday's preseason game against the Ravens, coming down with a catch for a 13-yard gain.

Josh McCown Plays Well on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Josh McCown played most of Thursday's preseason game and looked good, completing 17 of his 24 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns.

Richard Rodgers Will Miss Several Weeks

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Richard Rodgers will be forced to miss several weeks due to a foot injury.

Mack Hollins Expected to Make the Roster

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is expected to make his way onto the team's 53-man roster. Hollins had a brief moment as a dynasty sleeper, but injuries and overall disappointing play have kept him buried on the depth chart so far in his career.

Miles Sanders Expected to Take the Top Spot on the Depth Chart

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders is expected to take over the top spot on the running back depth chart soon.
