Nelson Agholor Expected to Be a "Significant Part" of the Offense

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is expected to be a "significant part" of the offense, according to Jimmy Kempski of Philly Voice. Agholor was reportedly fighting a losing battle to rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside earlier in the preseason, but Agholor has turned it on lately and has been one of the most impressive Eagles players […]

Cody Kessler Returns to Practice

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Cody Kessler (concussion) has resumed practicing. He was the main backup to starter Carson Wentz after Nate Sudfeld (wrist) got hurt, but the Eagles signed Josh McCown after watching their two backups go down. McCown will serve as the primary backup once the season starts, and Kessler's likely only around until Sudfeld […]

Paul DeJong Hits His 22nd Home Run on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong only got one hit on Monday, but it was a big one, going over the fence for his 22nd home run of the season. DeJong ended up 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored. DeJong has been as streaky as ever this season, and it's all turned into […]

Dakota Hudson Takes a No-Hitter Into the Seventh

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Dakota Hudson took a no-hitter into the seventh inning on Monday. He was removed from the game after 6 2/3 hitless innings, allowing four walks while striking out seven. Hudson didn't get the no-no, but he did earn a win and a quality start, improving his record to 12-6 and […]

Brandon Brooks Still Not Cleared for Team Drills

Philadelphia Eagles starting right guard Brandon Brooks is still recovering from his Achilles' injury and has not yet been cleared for team drills. Brooks will "see how his body responds" to one-on-one drills this week. He remains a possibility for Week 1, but he'll need his injury to respond well to increasing work. Brooks suffered […]

Tony Pollard Leads the Backfield on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard led the backfield in Saturday's preseason game, running the ball five times for 42 yards and a touchdown. He added a nine yard catch as well. Pollard got the most carries and yards and the only touchdown among Cowboys running backs. With Ezekiel Elliott possibly on the sidelines […]

Dak Prescott Completes All Five Passes on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed all five of his passes in Saturday's preseason game, gaining 64 yards. As expected, Prescott didn't play much but he should get a larger share of at least the first half in the Cowboys dress rehearsal next week. With Ezekiel Elliott far from a sure thing for Week 1, […]

Miles Mikolas Gives Up Five Runs in Five Innings

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas struggled on Saturday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks in five innings of work. He struck out five and allowed two home runs. Mikolas saw his record drop to 7-13 and his ERA rise to 4.30. Opponents are hitting .277 against him, and despite his […]

Zach Plesac Struggles a Bit on Saturday

Cleveland Indians rookie starting pitcher Zach Plesac wasn't sharp on Saturday. He tossed 4 2/3 innings, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and a walk. He struck out five but allowed three home runs. He was somewhat lucky to only allow the four earned runs given the three bombs he allowed, but this […]

Carlos Santana Gets Three Hits and Drives in Three Runs

Cleveland Indians first baseman Carlos Santana got three hits and drove in three runs on Saturday, going 3-for-4 with three singles. He brought his line up to .293/.414/.551. He's been the most consistent member of the Cleveland offense and one of the more consistent players in the American League. He should continue to do more […]

Wendell Smallwood Could Be Left Off the Roster

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood could be left off the final roster before the season begins. Smallwood set a career high in touches last season, but he was average at best. With the Eagles drafting Miles Sanders and trading for Jordan Howard, Smallwood was pushed down the depth chart and will need to compete […]

Charles Johnson on the Outside Looking In

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Charles Johnson is on the outside looking in for a roster spot in 2019. Johnson excelled in the AAF as part of the Orlando Apollos and looked promising on the Vikings in 2014, but he's already 30 and buried on the depth chart. Behind at least Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson, Nelson […]

Mack Hollins Likely to Play a Depth Role in 2019

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is likely to play a depth role in 2019 if he makes it on the final roster. Buried on the depth chart behind at least Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson, Nelson Agholor, and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, Hollins will appear on special teams a lot more often than he does on offense. […]

Darren Sproles Should Have a Role on Offense

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles should have a somewhat consistent role in 2019. He'll work on special teams as a returner, but should also see playing time on offense, splitting passing downs with Corey Clement. Sproles and Clement will eat into one another's fantasy value, but either back would be a solid option if […]

Josh Adams on the Roster Bubble

Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams might not make the final Eagles roster this season. Adams led the team in rushing last season after joining the team as an undrafted rookie, but shoulder surgery combined with the additions of Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard have left Adams on the outside looking in. Sanders, Howard, Corey […]

Corey Clement Has Competition in the Backfield

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement could have some competition for passing downs from veteran Darren Sproles. Jordan Howard and rookie Miles Sanders seemed locked into early downs, and Clement and Sproles should handle passing situations. Given their ages, Clement should take the larger role, but Sproles could act as a vulture to Clement's fantasy […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Quickly Gaining Preseason Buzz

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is quickly gaining some preseason buzz, with some reporters thinking he could even be pushing Nelson Agholor for a starting role. The Eagles are reportedly "excited" about their second rounder, and while starters Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson are in no danger of losing playing time, slot receiver […]

Jake Elliott In For Another Solid Season

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott should be primed for another solid season in 2019. He had a good 2018, converting 26-of-31 field goals, but just two of 50 yards or more. He missed two extra points in 35 tries. With an improving offense, Elliott could get more chances this season and should be a solid […]

Nelson Agholor Could Lose His Role on Offense

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor could be in line for a diminished role on offense this season. With Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson atop the receiver depth chart, Agholor will need to hold off rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside to remain in a starting role. Arcega-Whiteside has reportedly been excellent in practice and could take Agholor's […]

Jordan Howard Should Have a Consistent Role in 2019

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard should have a consistent short-yardage role in 2019. While rookie Miles Sanders has taken training camp by storm, Howard has remained solid and will play a significant role on the offense. He and Sanders will share early downs, with Sanders playing more often between the 20-yard lines and Howard […]

DeSean Jackson Should Have Some Huge Games This Season

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson could have some huge games this season. With quarterback Carson Wentz finally having the deep threat Torrey Smith should have been, Jackson could provide the Eagles offense with a new dimension. He won't be a super consistent option, but is an excellent best ball or DFS play, especially against […]

Carson Wentz Could Have a New Backup Soon

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz could be working with a new backup soon. Wentz has sat out the preseason so far but has seen Nate Sudfeld (wrist) and Cody Kessler (concussion) get hurt under center. Rookie Clayton Thorson is the only one left on the depth chart, and since the Eagles certainly don't want their […]

Alshon Jeffery Should Be a Solid Option This Season

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery should be a solid option in all fantasy formats this season. Jeffery sits atop the receiving depth chart on a team that should feature a strong offense. While there are a lot of mouths to feed in Philly, Jeffery provides the touchdown upside that is absent in some of […]

Zach Ertz Could See Fewer Targets in 2019

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz could see fewer targets in 2019, according to Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com. The Eagles added several pass-catchers in the offseason and saw tight end Dallas Goedert excel in limited chances last season. Ertz will still be an unquestioned TE1 if he stays healthy, but he just won't have the […]

Noah Brown Fighting for a Roster Spot

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Noah Brown is fighting for a roster spot on the receiver depth chart behind Amari Cooper, Randall Cobb, Michael Gallup, and Tavon Austin. The first three will start on offense and Austin plays a role on special teams. The departure of Allen Hurns gives Brown a better chance to lock down […]

Tavon Austin Looking at Punt-Return Duties This Season

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tavon Austin should have punt-return duties all to himself this season. He split the work with Cole Beasley last season, but with Beasley gone, Austin should be the unquestioned returner for punts. Austin was allegedly going to get "12-24 touches" per game last season and then ended up with 14 total […]

Jason Witten "Better, Stronger and Faster" This Season

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is "better, stronger and faster" than he was before, according to quarterback Dak Prescott. Witten took a year off to work in the broadcast booth but couldn't stay away too long. He's atop the Cowboys tight end depth chart but should cede some playing time to Blake Jarwin and […]

Alfred Morris Could Surprise in 2019

Dallas Cowboys running back Alfred Morris could be a surprising source of fantasy value in 2019. It all depends on Ezekiel Elliott of course, as if he's on the field, Morris will be almost exclusively on the sidelines. If Elliott sticks with his holdout, however, Morris will be the one to take the ball on […]

Brett Maher Looking for Another Solid Season

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is hoping to build on his solid 2018 season and should be a decent contributor in fantasy leagues this year as well. Maher went 29-for-36 last season with six field goals of 50 yards or more. He only missed one extra point try in 33 chances. He's not a get-him-early […]

Randall Cobb a Risky Wide Receiver This Season

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is a risky but potentially decent-upside player in fantasy leagues this season. He signed a one-year, $5 million deal with the Cowboys this offseason and will essentially be a one-for-one replacement for Cole Beasley in the slot. Cobb and quarterback Dak Prescott were reportedly connecting well earlier in the […]
