Christian McCaffrey Also Has A Rib Injury

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (oblique, ribs) didn't return to Sunday's loss to Cleveland. It was reported initially he was ruled out with an oblique issue. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan said after the game that McCaffrey also has a rib injury. Fortunately, the 49ers don't play until Monday night in Week 7 […]

David Montgomery Won't Return In Week 6

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (ribs) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. X-rays were negative, so that's a good sign. However, the injury will keep him off the field for the rest of Week 6. Montgomery is one of the best backs in the NFL this season, so fantasy managers […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Questionable To Return Sunday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (head, ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Las Vegas. Stevenson would finish with six carries for 30 yards and two catches if he doesn't make it back. If that's the case, Ezekiel Elliott will handle most of the snaps out of the backfield for the […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Doubtful To Return On Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (back) is doubtful to return to Sunday's meeting with the Patriots, his former team. If the oft-injured signal-caller doesn't return, he'll finish this one with 162 yards off 14-for-22 passing while throwing one touchdown and one interception. Brian Hoyer is now in under center, although nobody knows who will […]

Trent Williams Wearing A Boot After Loss To Cleveland

San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Trent Williams (ankle) needed a walking boot after Sunday's loss to Cleveland. The 35-year-old briefly exited in Week 6 but returned, albeit with his ankle heavily taped. The 49ers dealt with a few significant injuries versus the Browns, with Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and Christian McCaffrey (oblique) both exiting. Williams will […]

David Montgomery Questionable To Return On Sunday

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (ribs) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the Bucs. Montgomery had six carries for 14 yards and a catch for 19 yards before exiting with an apparent rib injury. The team was already down Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) heading into this one, so Craig Reynolds would handle most […]

Deebo Samuel's Injury Not Considered Serious

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder) will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury suffered in Sunday's loss to Cleveland. However, X-ray results already came back negative, so the team remains optimistic he "will be fine." Samuel had two carries for 11 yards and failed to catch his only target […]

Trevor Lawrence "Feeling OK," Not Sure About Thursday Night

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (knee) finished Sunday's win over the Colts by throwing for 181 yards, two touchdowns, and a pick. He also completed 20 of his 30 passing attempts and added 15 yards off three carries. Unfortunately, the signal-caller suffered a left knee injury in this one. Although he stated he's feeling "ok," […]

Ryan Tannehill On Crutches Following Loss In London

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) was seen using crutches after Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens in London. Tannehill, who threw 76 yards and a touchdown, injured his ankle and was transported to the locker room on a cart. Normally, it wouldn't take long for a player to receive an MRI. But it may […]

Jimmy Butler Sitting Out On Sunday Night

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (undisclosed) won't play in Sunday's preseason showdown with the Memphis Grizzlies. He's recovering from a dental procedure, although it doesn't appear to be anything serious, considering he's expected to be ready for the opener. With Miami down plenty of bodies heading into this one, guys like Thomas Bryant, Duncan Robinson, […]

Draymond Green To Be Evaluated Again On Monday

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (ankle) has recently participated in individual workouts. The 33-year-old, who agreed to a four-year, $100 million deal this past offseason to remain in Golden State, isn't the player he once was. He averaged 8.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists, and 1.0 steals in 73 games last season, his most […]

Khris Middleton Happy To Embrace New Role

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is ready to step aside and allow Damian Lillard to remain a top-scoring threat for the team this season. Lillard is undoubtedly one of the best offensive producers in the National Basketball Association, so Middleton was already expected to see fewer chances on the scoring end. However, now that […]

Jonathan Kuminga Getting Praise For Recent Play

According to C.J. Holmes of The San Francisco Chronicle, the Golden State Warriors are pleased with the play of forward Jonathan Kuminga during the preseason thus far. "He's just more at peace with himself, embracing the coaching more," said head coach Steve Kerr. "He's just doing a great job of staying poised through his mistakes, […]

Naji Marshall Out At Least A Few Weeks

According to a press release by the team, New Orleans Pelicans forward Naji Marshall (knee) underwent an MRI after exiting Saturday night's preseason matchup against Atlanta. Although the results could have been worse, Marshall suffered a bone bruise and a hyperextended right knee. He's expected to be reevaluated in a few weeks, so he's likely […]

Clippers Not Looking To Add More For James Harden

According to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Enquirer, the Clippers haven't budged on sweetening the trade package proposed for 76ers guard James Harden. It's common knowledge Harden wants to head west. However, outside of some picks and expiring contracts, Los Angeles doesn't appear willing to add anyone else, including the highly-coveted Terance Mann. With the […]

Andrew Wiggins Has High Expectations For Year Ahead

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins aspires to do big things this season. "I would love to be an All-Star," Wiggins declared during a recent interview. "I would love to be on the All-Defensive team." The 28-year-old played in only 37 games last season for various reasons, averaging 17.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.2 steals. […]

Zion Williamson Scores 16 Points In Preseason Loss

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson scored 16 points in Saturday's preseason loss to Atlanta. He added five assists and two boards, although he turned the ball over three times. The 2019 No. 1 overall pick out of Duke was productive last season, averaging 26.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.1 steals. Unfortunately, Williamson […]

Dennis Smith Jr. To Miss "At Least A Week"

According to Brooklyn Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn, guard Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle) will be sidelined for "at least a week." The 2017 No. 9 overall pick, who injured his left ankle in preseason action on Thursday night, signed with Brooklyn over the summer after most recently suiting up for the Hornets in 2022-23. He […]

Cameron Johnson Might Miss Remainder Of The Preseason

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (hamstring) could miss the remainder of the preseason. He continues to battle a hamstring issue, with head coach Jacque Vaughn indicating he plans to be "extremely cautious" with the former Sun. Johnson appeared in 25 games for Brooklyn last season after being acquired from Phoenix as part of the Kevin […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 6 - Daily Fantasy Football Targets Include Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Raheem Mostert, T.J. Hockenson

Anyone who faced Ja'Marr Chase, Tyreek Hill, or DJ Moore in Week 5 is likely coming off a loss. While all three are talented wideouts, it's safe to say they all exceeded expectations in a big way. Unfortunately, significant performances weren't the only things happening in Week 5, as several teams will be without their […]

LeBron James Logs 18 Minutes On Friday Night

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James had 12 points in the exhibition loss to Golden State on Friday night. He added five assists and two boards. The 38-year-old has been active during the preseason, a terrific sign, considering he missed time last season due to a foot injury. Even at his advanced NBA age, James […]

Anthony Davis Has Another Productive Preseason Showing

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis scored 13 points in Friday's loss to the Warriors. He added six rebounds, four assists, and a steal. The 30-year-old went 3-for-8 from the field in this one. However, outside of that, he has played well during his three preseason appearances. Davis is coming off a terrific 2022-23 campaign, […]

Stephen Curry Scores 18 Points In Preseason Loss

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry finished with 18 points in the preseason victory over the Lakers on Friday night. The multi-time All-Star looked good in this one, going 5-for-8 from the field and 2-for-4 from deep. He added four assists and three rebounds and displayed his defensive acumen by amassing one steal and one […]

Chris Paul Commits Five Turnovers On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul logged 20 minutes of work in Friday's exhibition with the Lakers. The veteran finished with six points, going 2-for-6 from the field and 2-for-3 from deep. He added four assists, although he amassed five turnovers. The 2005 No. 4 overall pick has now totaled seven turnovers in his first […]

Trenton Irwin A Potential Flex Play On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Trenton Irwin looked good in the Week 5 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. With Tee Higgins (ribs) sidelined for that one, most had assumed Tyler Boyd would get Ja'Marr Chase's leftovers. But that's not what happened, as Irwin finished as the second-best wideout on the team by catching eight of his […]

Tyler Boyd Not An Ideal Fantasy Option In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd entered the Week 5 meeting with Arizona as the No. 2 option on the depth chart. Tee Higgins (ribs) didn't play, so Boyd had a chance to benefit from an increase in attention from Joe Burrow. While Ja'Marr Chase thrived, the former Pittsburgh Panther had just 39 yards off […]

Ja'Marr Chase A Top Option In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase didn't score a touchdown through the first four games of the year. Without question, Joe Burrow's disappointing play during that span negatively impacted his former collegiate teammate. In all fairness, the 23-year-old wasn't terrible. However, fantasy managers were hoping for more. But Chase finally got back on track in […]

Joe Mixon Just A Flex Option In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon hasn't had a terrible season through five weeks. On the other hand, the former Oklahoma Sooner has been far from impressive. He's carried the ball 84 times, amassing 328 yards for a subpar 3.9 yards per carry. Even worse, Mixon has just one touchdown and hasn't surpassed the 100-yard […]

Joe Burrow Hopes For Duplicate Outing In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was quiet through the first four weeks of the 2023-24 campaign. During that span, the signal-caller threw two touchdowns, although both occurred in Week 2 against Baltimore. Unquestionably, Burrow's calf injury suffered during training camp limited his production. However, he finally got it together in the Week 5 win over […]

Thomas Bryant Disappears On Friday

Miami Heat center Thomas Bryant scored four points in Friday's loss to the Spurs. He added five rebounds and turned the ball over three times. The 26-year-old narrowly missed a double-double in the exhibition with Charlotte on Tuesday night. However, he cooled off in this one. Nevertheless, the 2017 second-round pick should see routine playing […]
