Keep Justin Fields Benched Versus Potent Cowboys D

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields hasn't had the breakout season most were expecting. The 23-year-old has thrown only five touchdowns while amassing six interceptions and completing just 55.9% of his attempts this season. He has been somewhat proficient on the run. However, with a potent Cowboys' defense on tap for Week 8, fantasy managers should […]

David Montgomery A Volatile Option In Week 8

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery logged 15 carries against the Patriots in Week 7. At the same time, Khalil Herbert had 12, resulting in head coach Matt Eberflus indicating that both men would be involved moving ahead. Fantasy managers should be concerned about the timeshare. However, while the setup certainly lowers the fantasy ceilings […]

Derek Carr Without An Injury Designation For Week 8

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr (back) was removed from the injury report for Sunday's meeting with New Orleans.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has struggled this season. The former Sooner has run for only 405 yards off 121 attempts, averaging a career-worst 3.3 yards per carry. Fortunately, he has three total touchdowns, helping soften the blow for fantasy managers. With the Bengals and Browns going at it on Monday night, Joe Burrow […]

Joe Burrow Looking For A Win Without Top Wideout

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will attempt to lead his team to a win on Monday night against the Browns. The former LSU Tiger has had three regular-season meetings with Cleveland in his career, averaging 334 yards and two touchdowns per game while completing 67.8% of his throws. Unfortunately, Burrow will be without Ja'Marr Chase […]

Nelson Agholor Questionable For Week 8

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor (hamstring) is questionable for the Week 8 meeting with the New York Jets. The veteran has been limited at practice all week, so there's a chance he won't be in uniform for the AFC East showdown. He began the 2022-23 campaign by compiling 11 catches for 179 yards […]

Kendrick Bourne Off The Injury Report

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne (toe) is off the injury report ahead of Sunday's AFC East clash with the Jets.

The 27-year-old didn't play in the Week 7 meeting with the New York Jets and is currently riding a questionable tag heading into Sunday's game versus the Denver Broncos.

Hayden Hurst Logs A Limited Practice Session Friday

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst (groin, ankle) logged his second-consecutive limited practice session on Friday. Hurst has dealt with the groin issue for nearly the entire season.

CJ McCollum Expected To Suit Up Versus Phoenix

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (finger) is expected to play on Friday against Phoenix, barring a setback during warmups. The 31-year-old has been riding a questionable tag heading into this one due to a sprained middle finger on his right hand. With Brandon Ingram (head) out and Zion Williamson (hip) uncertain to suit up, […]

Michael Porter Jr. Available On Friday Night

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (back) is available versus the Utah Jazz and will start. The 24-year-old got the night off against the Lakers on Wednesday to rest. Considering he entered 2022-23 coming off a season-ending back injury, Porter will sit sporadically moving ahead. The 2018 first-round pick is still having a fantastic year, […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Out Against The Jazz

Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is out for Friday's meeting with the Utah Jazz. KCP has had a fanatic season, averaging 11.8 points, 3.8 boards, 3.0 assists, and 1.2 steals while shooting 50.0% from downtown. It's unknown how long he'll be out, so there's a chance he could be back for Sunday's game versus […]

Walker Kessler Won't Suit Up Versus Nuggets

Kessler has played well in his first five professional appearances, averaging 5.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks, including amassing a double-double in the season-opener. As a result, Udoka Azubuike […]

Rudy Gay Out Versus The Nuggets

Utah Jazz forward Rudy Gay (health and safety protocols) won't play on Friday against the Denver Nuggets. The 36-year-old has averaged only 5.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.2 assists this season, so his absence won't mean much for fantasy managers. However, it may indirectly open up some playing time for Collin Sexton, who has logged […]

Collin Sexton Available On Friday Night

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (oblique) is available for Friday's clash with the Denver Nuggets. The 23-year-old has struggled this season, averaging 10.6 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.6 assists while shooting 30.0% from deep. Sexton has also logged a career-low 17 minutes in 2022-23, so fantasy managers should remain cautious until he turns things around.

Zach LaVine Won't Play Against San Antonio

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) won't play on Friday against San Antonio. With Chicago playing its first of back-to-back games, LaVine will get a night off to rest and likely return for Saturday's meeting with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Russell Westbrook Moved To The Bench

Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook will come off the bench on Friday against the Timberwolves.

He also shot just 37.2% from the field and an even worse 30.2% from deep. The Spurs recently picked up […]

Darius Garland To Remain Sidelined Against Boston

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (eye) isn't available on Friday against the Celtics. The 22-year-old suffered a left eye laceration during the season-opener versus Toronto and hasn't been seen since. As a result, Dean Wade is expected to remain in the starting lineup. Wade scored 12 points and shot 4-for-7 from deep on Wednesday in […]

Cody Martin Sitting Again On Friday Evening

Charlotte Hornets guard Cody Martin (quadriceps) won't play on Friday night against Orlando. Martin will miss another one because of left quad soreness, with LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Terry Rozier (ankle) joining him on the shelf. As a result, Dennis Smith Jr., who's averaged 16.0 points, 8.5 assists, and 2.5 steals in his two starts […]

Terry Rozier Won't Play Against Orlando

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's meeting with Orlando. The 28-year-old continues to deal with a sprained right ankle, costing him his previous two games.

Brandon Ingram Out For Next Three Games

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (head) won't be available for the team's three-game road trip, beginning on Friday against the Suns. The 25-year-old remains in concussion protocols after exiting Sunday's matchup against the Utah Jazz.

Justin Tucker Nails Two Field Goals On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker nailed two field goals during the win over the Buccaneers in Week 8. The veteran did have a 61-yard try blocked in the second quarter, although he can't take the blame for that. With the Ravens dealing with injuries on the offensive end, Tucker's services may be needed even more […]

Devin Duvernay Snags Another Touchdown In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay finished with four catches for 31 yards on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He also scored a touchdown, finding the end zone off a 15-yard carry in the fourth quarter.

Demarcus Robinson Has Six Catches On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson finished with 64 yards off six catches during the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Rashod Bateman (foot) and Mark Andrews (shoulder) both suffered injuries, opening the door for Robinson to amass a season-high in receptions.

The signal-caller finished by throwing for 238 yards and two touchdowns off 71.1% passing while adding nine carries for 43 yards.
