Russell Wilson Not An Ideal Option Versus The Chiefs

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson will meet Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs for the second time this season. Both AFC West clubs recently clashed in Week 6. However, the signal-caller didn't do anything relevant, finishing the night by amassing 95 passing yards and a touchdown. Even worse, he threw two interceptions and completed an embarrassing […]

Brock Purdy Expected To Play In Week 8

According to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (concussion) is anticipated to get cleared and start on Sunday versus the Bengals "if all goes as expected."

Frank Ragnow Battling Multiple Injuries

Detroit Lions center Frank Ragnow (toe, calf) isn't expected to practice on Saturday, marking what would be his third consecutive absence. He may work "on the side." However, head coach Dan Campbell said it's "tough" to tell if the 27-year-old would play in Monday's meeting with the Raiders. Ragnow, a multi-time Pro-Bowler, is considered one […]

Jordan Wilkins Elevated From The Practice Squad

The Browns elevated running back Jordan Wilkins from the practice squad ahead of the team's upcoming meeting in Seattle. Under normal circumstances, this move wouldn't be newsworthy. However, it may paint a bigger picture, potentially signaling an impending absence by Jerome Ford (ankle), who remains questionable for Week 8. Fortunately for Cleveland, Kareem Hunt (thigh) […]

During a recent interview with NFL Media's Rich Eisen, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams stated he is "happy" to be on the team.

Jaden McDaniels Doubtful Versus Miami

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (calf) isn't expected to play on Saturday against Miami. The 23-year-old, who recently signed a lucrative extension with the Timberwolves, is battling a calf strain. While he's considered day-to-day, there's a realistic chance he will miss a few more time moving ahead, including upcoming games versus Atlanta and Denver. As […]

Naji Marshall Remains Out On Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Naji Marshall (knee) remains out for Saturday's meeting with the visiting Knicks. The 25-year-old suffered a right knee contusion during a preseason game against the Atlanta Hawks in mid-October and was expected to miss a few weeks, meaning he could be nearing a return. However, even when Marshall is back in […]

Devin Booker Unlikely To Play Against Utah

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (foot) isn't expected to play on Saturday night against Utah. Booker didn't suit up on Thursday versus the Lakers, so his next chance to return will be on Tuesday for the Halloween encounter with the Spurs. With Bradley Beal (back) already ruled out, the Suns will be forced to rely […]

Bradley Beal Won't Return Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (back) won't play on Saturday against Utah. Beal will miss his third consecutive game because of back spasms, so his next chance to make his official debut with his new team will be on Tuesday versus the visiting Spurs. With Devin Booker (foot) doubtful, Kevin Durant, who had 39 points […]

Tee Higgins Needs A Strong Showing In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has struggled with injuries and underwhelming play throughout the 2023-24 campaign.

Outside of that, he has just two receptions in each of […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looks To Lead Cincinnati To Another Win

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase hasn't had the year many had envisioned entering the 2023-24 campaign. Chase didn't find the end zone until the Week 5 win over the Cardinals, with the former LSU Tiger amassing 15 catches for 192 yards and three touchdowns. However, outside of a couple of games this season, Chase […]

Joe Mixon Still A Flex Option In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon hasn't had the best season. The 27-year-old still hasn't surpassed the 100-yard rushing mark. Even worse, he has only one touchdown while averaging a mediocre 3.8 yards per carry. With the Bengals coming off a bye in Week 7, Mixon and company will look for a third-straight win on […]

Joe Burrow Looking To Lead Bengals To Another Win

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow looks to lead his team to a third-straight win on Sunday against the 49ers. The Bengals were off in Week 7, which couldn't have come soon enough for many players on Cincinnati's roster, including Burrow, who has battled a calf issue since training camp. Although the signal-caller claimed the injury […]

Cameron Johnson Now Out On Friday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (calf) won't play on Friday night against the Mavs. The 27-year-old is dealing with a calf contusion, so he may only miss a game or two before he's ready to return. Brooklyn also won't have Nicolas Claxton (ankle), meaning the team will be without two essential components of the starting […]

Draymond Green "Close" To Returning

According to Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, forward Draymond Green (ankle) is nearing a return. The veteran missed Wednesday's loss to the Phoenix Suns and won't play on Friday versus the Sacramento Kings. However, Kerr indicated he wanted Green to increase his conditioning level before being cleared, so he might be sidelined for just a […]

Landry Shamet Returns To Practice On Friday

Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (toe) practiced on Friday. The 26-year-old broke his big toe a month ago and was projected to miss up to four weeks, so he's on track with his recovery. Shamet, who was traded to the Wizards as a part of the Bradley Beal deal, has played for the 76ers, Clippers, […]

Anfernee Simons To Undergo Surgery

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (thumb) will miss 4-to-6 weeks after an MRI revealed a ligament tear in his right thumb. Simons was listed as probable for Friday's meeting with Orlando. However, he was downgraded to questionable later in the day, so fantasy managers had a feeling something wasn't right. It's an unfortunate development […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Struggles On Wednesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic scored only seven points in Wednesday's loss to the Charlotte Hornets. The 2017 No. 27 overall pick logged 24 minutes from the bench, going 3-for-9 from the field and 1-for-5 from deep, adding four rebounds and four assists. Fortunately, he had three steals, which helped offset some of his shooting […]

Luka Doncic Available Against Spurs

According to NBA insider Marc Stein, Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) will play on Wednesday night against the Spurs. There were doubts regarding his availability for at least the opener. However, he returned to practice on Monday, participating every day since, and was present for Wednesday morning's shootaround. That said, Doncic may see fewer […]

Santi Aldama To Miss Season Opener

Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) won't play in Wednesday's matchup with the Pelicans. He's battling a right ankle sprain. Fortunately, it's "considered mild," so he has a chance to return sooner rather than later. The 22-year-old had a productive season in 2022-23, averaging 9.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.3 assists. Memphis needs him back […]

Zach Collins Under The Weather

San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the visiting Mavericks. The 25-year-old, who recently agreed to a two-year extension with the team on Monday, is battling a non-COVID-related illness, which could force him to miss the opener. If that's the case, 2023 No. 1 overall pick Victor Wembanyama will […]

Dean Wade Battling An Illness, Doubtful On Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (illness) is doubtful ahead of Wednesday's meeting with the Nets in Brooklyn. Wade is under the weather and didn't travel with the team, so he likely won't be on the floor for this one. The 26-year-old logged 20.3 minutes per game during the 2022-23 campaign. However, he wasn't a consistent […]

Jarrett Allen Won't Play Against Brooklyn

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (ankle) won't suit up on Wednesday against Brooklyn, his former team. Allen suffered a bone bruise in his left ankle a few weeks ago. While he hasn't sustained any setbacks, head coach J.B. Bickerstaff is understandably taking the cautious route before putting him back on the floor. The 25-year-old is […]

Monte Morris Out Versus Miami

Detroit Pistons guard Monte Morris (back) will sit out Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. The 28-year-old, acquired via trade in the offseason, averaged 10.3 points, 5.3 assists, and 3.4 rebounds in 62 games with the Wizards in 2022-23. Fortunately, he's increased his activity level after battling back spasms throughout the preseason and is nearing […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Out Wednesday, Likely Longer

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) won't play in Wednesday's opener against Miami. Bogdanovic is nursing a calf strain, with head coach Monty Williams reporting the team is being "really cautious" about putting the sharpshooter on the floor too quickly. He averaged a career-high 21.6 points last season and shot an impressive 41.1% from deep. […]

Bradley Beal Questionable Versus The Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (back) is questionable ahead of Tuesday's clash with Golden State. The former Wizard is battling lower back tightness, so his official debut with the Suns is in jeopardy. The problems for Phoenix don't end there, as Devin Booker (toe) could also miss the opener. Both players are expected to handle […]

Devin Booker Questionable For Opening Night

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (toe) is questionable for the regular season opener on Tuesday night against Golden State. The 26-year-old has been battling a left big toe injury. However, considering he practiced on Monday, it appears he's moving in the right direction. With Bradley Beal (back) also questionable, Booker will be needed on the […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bucks Agree To Extension

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo agreed to a three-year, $186 million extension with the team on Monday night. The 28-year-old has been one of the most dominant players in the National Basketball Association for a while now, and he finished last season by averaging a career-high 31.1 points per game. Antetokounmpo is also a two-time […]

Chase Claypool Set To Play On Sunday Night

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chase Claypool (knee) is officially active for Sunday's meeting with the Eagles. The 25-year-old hasn't played since the Bears traded him a few weeks ago. But Claypool will have a fresh start in Miami after a disastrous tenure with the Bears, so fantasy managers hope he'll return to form. However, with […]

Robbie Chosen Won't Suit Up Against The Eagles

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Robbie Chosen (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game in Philadelphia. The 30-year-old has played twice this season, amassing one catch for 68 yards and a touchdown. Of course, Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are the Dolphins' primary receiving options. However, Chase Claypool will make his debut for Miami […]
