Brian Burns Won't Return On Sunday

Carolina Panthers linebacker Brian Burns (head) won't return on Sunday against the Colts. The 25-year-old, who has been the topic of trade rumors since the offseason, was diagnosed with a concussion. With the short turnaround before Thursday's meeting with the Bears, it's hard to see a scenario where Burns is out there. Of course, if […]

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (chest) is officially active for Sunday's meeting with the Buffalo Bills. The former Sooner retained his questionable tag throughout the weekend heading into this contest.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) exited Sunday's NFC East clash with the Dallas Cowboys.

The veteran signal-caller, who returned for this one after missing time with a neck issue, appeared to suffer a non-contact knee injury.

Taylor Heinicke Not A Lock To Start In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Taylor Heinicke finished with 268 yards off 21-for-38 passing, adding a touchdown and an interception, during Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings. It wasn't the worst showing from the 30-year-old, who was starting over the struggling Desmond Ridder. Unfortunately, Heinicke didn't do enough to solidify his status for the Week 10 matchup […]

Josh Downs Downgraded To Out In Week 9

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (knee) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the Carolina Panthers. He dealt with the knee injury heading into this one, so the latest development isn't surprising.

Matthew Stafford "Making Good Progress"

According to Rams head coach Sean McVay, quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) is "making good progress."

Josh Downs Exits Due To Injury On Sunday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (knee) exited Sunday's matchup with the Carolina Panthers. He is questionable to return. The 22-year-old battled a knee injury heading into Week 9, so the team may take the cautious approach and keep him out for the remainder of the game. If that happens, he'll finish with one catch […]

CJ Henderson Won't Return On Sunday

Carolina Panthers cornerback CJ Henderson (head) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. The 2020 No. 9 overall pick was initially considered questionable because of a concussion. However, his day is over. With Carolina playing again on Thursday versus the Chicago Bears, the short turnaround may not give Henderson enough time to get […]

Daniel Jones Suffers Knee Injury In Week 9

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (knee) exited the Week 9 meeting with the Raiders. The signal-caller, who has been out since injuring his neck in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins, suffered a knee injury early in the second quarter. But considering he went down with a non-contact injury, Jones may be dealing with […]

Santi Aldama Questionable Against Portland

Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with Portland. The 22-year-old hasn't played this season because of a sprained ankle. However, the Grizzlies could certainly use him, considering Steven Adams (knee) and Brandon Clarke (Achilles) aren't available. Aldama averaged 9.0 points and 4.8 rebounds in 2022-23, so he's expected to play […]

Klay Thompson Might Miss Sunday's Game

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (groin) is questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's battling an adductor strain. But with the Warriors also playing on Monday, Thompson may sit out at least one of the games. If that's the case, Chris Paul, who is averaging 12.0 points, 10.5 assists, and 2.5 […]

Precious Achiuwa To Miss Another Game On Sunday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Precious Achiuwa (groin) won't play in Sunday's matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. The 24-year-old has played just three games this season.

Malaki Branham Will Start Versus Toronto

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Malaki Branham will start on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. Devin Vassell (adductor) is day-to-day, so Branham could be rolling with the first five for at least a few games. The 20-year-old usually has value coming off the bench. However, he averaged 12.0 points and 3.8 rebounds in 32 starts last […]

Alec Burks Still Out On Sunday

Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (forearm) won't play against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday. The 32-year-old veteran has had a fantastic season, averaging 15.0 points while shooting 53.8% from behind the arc. Unfortunately, he's been limited to just four games due to a forearm strain, so he may also miss Monday's clash with the Golden […]

Jaden Ivey Under The Weather, Out On Sunday

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (illness) is out for Sunday's meeting with the Suns. The 21-year-old hasn't played the best this season, averaging 11.8 points, a significant decrease from the 2022-23 campaign. Even worse, he hasn't started a game this year. With Ivey battling an unknown illness, it's anyone's guess if he'll be back for […]

Devin Vassell Sidelined On Sunday, Likely Out Monday

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (groin) won't play against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday. He also isn't expected to suit up on Monday versus the Indiana Pacers.

Bradley Beal Won't Return On Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (back) remains out ahead of Sunday's meeting with Detroit. The former Wizard hasn't played all season because of back spasms, so he has yet to make his official debut with his new squad. It's been a rough start to the 2023-24 campaign for Phoenix, a team that could be without […]

Terry Rozier Questionable Against Dallas

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Mavericks. The 29-year-old has had a quality 2023-24 campaign, averaging a career-high 22 points. However, he suffered a groin injury in Saturday's showdown with the Pacers and is now in danger of missing his first game of the year. Nonetheless, if Rozier […]

Devin Booker Now Dealing With A Calf Issue

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ankle, calf) won't play in Sunday's matchup with the Detroit Pistons. The 27-year-old played in the opener against the Golden State Warriors. However, he was sidelined for over a week due to an ankle issue before returning for Thursday's loss to San Antonio. Unfortunately, Booker suffered another injury in that […]

DJ Chark Jr. Likely To Suit Up In Week 9

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. (elbow) is expected to play in Week 9 versus the Indianapolis Colts.

That said, Downs will test […]

Brett Rypien Likely To Start In Week 9

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Brett Rypien will likely start on Sunday in Green Bay. Matthew Stafford (thumb) isn't expected to suit up. As a result, head coach Sean McVay will turn to Rypien, who went 5-for-10 for 42 yards after replacing Stafford in the Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Rypien isn't the worst […]

Jalen Smith Questionable On Saturday Night

Indiana Pacers center Jalen Smith (knee) is questionable ahead of Saturday's showdown with the Hornets. The 23-year-old has logged 16.5 minutes behind Myles Turner this season, averaging 11.8 points and 5.3 rebounds. However, he's battling a knee sprain, so the team may keep him off the floor on Saturday, the second of back-to-back contests. If […]

James Harden Could Face Minutes' Restriction

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden is close to debuting with his new team. However, according to head coach Ty Lue, the multi-time MVP's minutes could be monitored, at least until the medical staff is confident he can handle more. Fortunately for fantasy managers, Lue added the minutes' restriction wouldn't be "crazy." There are so […]

Tyrese Haliburton Uncertain For Saturday's Contest

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (ankle) could miss Saturday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. Haliburton is on the injury report because of a sprained ankle, keeping him off the floor for Wednesday's blowout loss to the Boston Celtics.
