Zach LaVine Likely To Play Against Indiana

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) is probable for Monday's meeting with the Pacers. The 28-year-old is battling back spasms and appeared on the injury report ahead of Saturday's loss to the Detroit Pistons. However, he scored 51 points in that one, so the issue didn't impact him too much. Assuming LaVine plays, he's a […]

Nicolas Claxton Remains Out Against Charlotte

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) won't play in Monday's game against Charlotte. The 24-year-old was in the lineup for the season opener versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, he didn't suit up for Friday's loss to Dallas, prompting head coach Jacque Vaughn to rely on Ben Simmons, who narrowly missed a triple-double, to handle things […]

Cameron Johnson Out Again On Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (calf) remains out on Monday night against the Charlotte Hornets. The 27-year-old didn't suit up on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks, opening the door for Dorian Finney-Smith to enter the starting lineup and finish with 12 points and seven boards while going 4-for-7 from deep. It's hard to tell how […]

Tyler Boyd Scores Again In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd had three catches for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Week 8 meeting with the 49ers. The wideout hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season. However, he has scored twice in his last two games, so his season hasn't been a total disaster. Boyd should cool […]

Tee Higgins Has A Decent Showing In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins had five catches for 69 yards in Sunday's win over the 49ers. Higgins hasn't had the best season, considering he has underperformed while missing time due to a rib injury. But the wideout, who had just two catches in each of his last three games, was productive, so it […]

Ja'Marr Chase Has A Big Game On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase looked great in Sunday's 31-17 win over the San Francisco 49ers. The wideout caught 10 of his 12 targets for 100 yards. He also scored a touchdown, bringing in a 17-yard pass from Joe Burrow at the start of the fourth quarter. The Bengals were off in Week 7, […]

Joe Mixon Scores A Touchdown In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon had arguably his best outing of the year in Sunday's win over the San Francisco 49ers. The former Sooner had a season-high 87 yards off 16 carries. More importantly, he scored a touchdown while adding three catches for 23 yards. Fantasy managers have been frustrated with Mixon's lackluster play […]

Joe Burrow Leads Cincinnati To Another Win In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow led his team to the win over the 49ers in Week 8. The 2020 No. 1 overall pick had a big day, throwing 283 yards and three touchdowns off 28-for-32 passing. He added six carries for 43 yards. It's apparent that the week off did Burrow and the Bengals some […]

Tyrod Taylor To Stay In The Hospital Overnight

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor (ribs) will remain in the hospital overnight for observation. The veteran signal-caller injured his ribs in the second quarter of Sunday's meeting with the New York Jets, resulting in Tommy Devito taking over under center. However, DeVito finished with negative yardage off 2-for-7 passing, so the Giants are in […]

Deshaun Watson "Will Be Back When He's Ready"

According to Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) "will be back when he's ready." ESPN's Adam Schefter recently reported the signal-caller isn't facing a "long-term absence." However, Stefanski's postgame comment didn't add any more clarity on when fantasy managers can expect Watson back on the field. Of course, the immediate question remains […]

Joshua Palmer Active On Sunday Night

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) is active for Sunday's clash with the Chicago Bears. The 24-year-old was riding a questionable designation and missed a few practices during the week before being limited in Friday's session. Fortunately, he's good to go. With Gerald Everett (hip) out, Palmer could see a few extra looks […]

Gerald Everett Ruled Out On Sunday Night

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (hip) won't play on Sunday night against Chicago. The veteran injured his hip in the Week 7 meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs. It's unfortunate timing, considering he had two touchdowns in the last two games. But Everett was trending in a favorable direction heading into this one, […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Questionable To Return Against Arizona

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (stomach) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the Cardinals. The veteran wideout took a hard hit from safety Budda Baker in the third quarter and suffered a stomach contusion. Judging by how things looked immediately after the injury, fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Beckham doesn't […]

Ja'Whaun Bentley Injures Hamstring In Week 8

New England Patriots linebacker Ja'Whaun Bentley (hamstring) didn't return to the Week 8 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. The 27-year-old had a team-high 49 total tackles entering Sunday's contest, so New England certainly hopes the hamstring injury doesn't keep him out in Week 9 against the Washington Commanders. That said, Bentley will likely appear on […]

DeVante Parker Doesn't Return In Week 8

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (head) didn't return to Sunday's AFC East clash with the Miami Dolphins. The wideout had just one catch for 14 yards before suffering a controversial hit in the third quarter that ended his day. It certainly wasn't good timing, considering the Patriots also lost Kendrick Bourne (knee). Nonetheless, […]

Damien Williams Questionable To Return Against Baltimore

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens. The 31-year-old would finish with just five yards off two carries and four yards off one catch if he doesn't return. But with Emari Demercado the primary rusher out of the backfield, Williams' status for the remainder of […]

Jalen Hurts Still Battling A Knee Issue

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had a fantastic showing in Sunday's narrow win over the Washington Commanders. He threw for 319 yards and four touchdowns off 29-for-38 passing. While fantasy managers are undoubtedly pleased with the performance, there is still a cause for concern, considering Hurts has battled a bone bruise in his knee for […]

Desmond Ridder Not Benched For Poor Performance

According to Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith, the team remains confident in the abilities of quarterback Desmond Ridder. The signal-caller didn't look the best in the Week 8 loss to the Titans, going 8-for-12 for 71 yards and adding three carries for 26 yards before being replaced by Taylor Heinicke. While those numbers aren't […]

Kendrick Bourne Set For An MRI On Monday

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne (knee) will get an MRI on Monday. The wideout injured his right knee during the Week 8 meeting with the Dolphins and didn't return. He's had a good 2023-24 campaign, so fantasy managers hope the ailment won't keep him out for the […]

Cameron Johnson Wearing A Boot

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (calf) is questionable for Monday's meeting with the Hornets. He didn't play on Friday night against the Dallas Mavericks, resulting in Dorian Finney-Smith replacing him in the lineup and finishing with 12 points and seven rebounds while going 4-for-7 from deep. Unfortunately, Johnson was seen wearing a boot during practice […]

Nicolas Claxton Could Miss Another Game

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (ankle) is day-to-day, meaning he may miss Monday's game in Charlotte. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks, with head coach Jacque Vaughn going small, resulting in Ben Simmons, who narrowly had a triple-double, getting work in the middle. With Cameron Johnson (calf) questionable for Monday […]

Daniel Gafford Doesn't Practice On Sunday

Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (ankle) didn't practice on Sunday and is questionable for Monday's showdown with the Celtics. The 25-year-old has had a decent season so far, averaging eight points, eight rebounds, and two blocks. Unfortunately, he twisted his ankle during Saturday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies, so fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if […]

James Harden Remains Out On Sunday Night

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden won't play on Sunday against Portland, as expected. Philly has the veteran listed as out due to conditioning reasons. However, there's a real chance he's already played his final game with the 76ers. That said, De'Anthony Melton should remain in the starting lineup. But Tyrese Maxey has benefitted greatly without […]

Stephen Curry Now Probable For Sunday Night

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (foot) is probable for Sunday's matchup with the Houston Rockets. The sharpshooter was questionable on Saturday, and there appeared to be a real shot he wouldn't be available. But he should be good to go, barring a setback. Curry is averaging 34.0 points and shooting 45.8% from deep this […]

Joel Embiid May Rest Against Portland

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the visiting Trail Blazers. Philly had a game in Toronto on Saturday, so the reigning MVP, who nearly had a triple-double in 35 minutes, could get the night off to rest. Fantasy managers should expect Embiid to get time off in some back-to-back situations […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 8 - Daily Fantasy Football Targets Include Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Jonathan Taylor, more

Thankfully, "Byemageddon" is over. In fact, there aren't any teams on a bye in Week 8, which will hopefully make things easier regarding lineup construction. Week 7 featured strong performances from guys like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Puka Nacua, and Amon-Ra St. Brown, which didn't shock anyone. However, others like D'Onta Foreman, Darrell Henderson, Gardner Minshew, and Joshua […]

Chase Young Trade To Chicago In The Works?

According to multiple reports, the Bears could be interested in acquiring Washington Commanders defensive end Chase Young. In addition to trading for the former Buckeye, the plan would be to sign him to a long-term contract, considering Chicago has plenty of cap space next season. Young, the 2020 defensive Rookie of the Year, began his […]

Zack Moss Still Questionable, Will Go Through Warmups

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (elbow, heel) will go through pre-game warmups on Sunday. If all goes well, the 25-year-old will play in Week 8. However, if things don't go as planned, Jonathan Taylor will get most of the work against the Saints. Taylor and Moss have split touches […]

Deshaun Watson Not Expected To Land On Injured Reserve

According to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) isn't facing a "long-term absence." He also isn't anticipated to land on the injured reserve list. Instead, the signal-caller is considered week-to-week, with Schefter adding that the team will "continue to be cautious." Watson is battling a rotator cuff strain, and although […]

Josh Richardson Out Again On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson (heel) remains out for Saturday's game against Minnesota. The veteran has battled a heel injury since the preseason, so fantasy managers must wait a bit longer for his debut. In the meantime, Jimmy Butler (rest), Kevin Love (shoulder), and Caleb Martin (knee) are also out versus the Timberwolves, so Duncan […]
