Cowboys Promote Brett Maher To Active Roster

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday. The team didn't have a kicker on the depth chart, so elevating Maher was an obvious decision ahead of the Sunday Night Football matchup versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 32-year-old hasn't been the most potent fantasy performer […]

Buffalo Adds Incentives To Jordan Poyer's Contract

Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer had incentives added to his contract. He is now eligible to earn an additional $2 million to the $5.6 million he is already guaranteed to make. Although it isn't a contract extension, the move may help keep Poyer as happy as possible while negotiating a potential new deal. The 31-year-old, […]

Matthew Stafford "Felt OK" After Loss

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (elbow) "felt OK" after Thursday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, according to head coach Sean McVay. The veteran signal-caller has been dealing with an elbow issue since last year and was limited from throwing throughout the offseason. The 34-year-old was sacked seven times during the season opener, so if […]

Cooper Rush Added To Active Roster For Sunday Night

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush has been elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay. The promotion of the 28-year-old may be alarming for Dak Prescott's fantasy managers, especially after the signal-caller popped up on the injury report during the week. However, there is nothing to worry about, as the move […]

Duane Brown Placed On Injured Reserve

New York Jets tackle Duane Brown (shoulder) landed on injured reserve on Saturday. He had already been ruled out for Week 1, so the latest update means he'll be out for at least three more games. The veteran signed with the team during the offseason after Mekhi Becton (knee) was lost for the year, so […]

Mike Davis' Outlook Hinges On J.K. Dobbins' Availability

Baltimore Ravens running back Mike Davis' fantasy fate hinges on whether J.K. Dobbins (knee) will play. While things aren't looking promising, there remains a chance he'll be on the field against the Jets in Week 1. Granted, if Dobbins suits up, Davis could still see work. However, if Dobbins doesn't, Davis would become a realistic […]

Rashod Bateman Hoping To Erase Underwhelming Rookie Year

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is now the clear-cut No. 1 option on the depth chart after the team traded Marquise Brown to the Cardinals. As a result, he has high hopes from the coaching staff, so he'll look to positively begin the year against the Jets on Sunday. Undoubtedly, Mark Andrews is forecasted […]

Mark Andrews Looks To Start Year On The Right Foot Against N.Y.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is hoping to become the league's top producer at the position. To accomplish this, the 27-year-old will look to begin the season on the right track when the birds head to MetLife for a meeting with the Jets in Week 1. Baltimore traded Marquise Brown to the Cardinals during […]

Lamar Jackson Looks To Begin Year On A Positive Note

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't secure a new contract as he had hoped. However, he will look to convince the front office to pay him big money after this season and will attempt to begin the 2022-23 campaign on a high note against the Jets. The 2019 MVP is coming off a down year, […]

Bengals Defense Warrants Consideration Against Pittsburgh

The Bengals defense had flashes of consistency last season. Did it have some issues occasionally? Sure. However, Cincinnati has most of its group back from 2021-22. While the Bengals D may struggle at times during the year, the fantasy upside is there. As a result, managers certainly should consider starting Cincy's defense in Week 1 […]

Evan McPherson Looking To Become League's Top Kicker

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson looks to build off an impressive rookie year against the Steelers on Sunday. The 23-year-old finished last season by nailing 28 of his 33 attempts, including going 9-for-11 from beyond 50 yards. Despite his youth, McPherson is already is considered one of the top kickers in the league for a […]

Hayden Hurst Ready To Finally Break Out?

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst has been disappointing fantasy managers for years. However, now that he's in Cincy and currently the No. 1 option on the depth chart, he will look to change that. He'll have a chance to begin the year on a high note against Pittsburgh in Week 1. With Joe Burrow […]

Don't Forget About Tyler Boyd In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd will look to surpass the 1,000-yard this season for the first time since 2019. He'll attempt to accomplish that by starting the year on the right foot against the Steelers on Sunday. Unquestionably, the presence of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins has caused Boyd's production to dip over the […]

Tee Higgins Ready To Roll Against Pittsburgh

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (shoulder) has plenty of potential to make noise for fantasy managers against Pittsburgh on Sunday. The 23-year-old entered the week dealing with a shoulder issue and was considered day-to-day. However, he hasn't appeared on the injury report since, so he should be at full strength (or close to it) […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looks To Build Off ROY Campaign On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will look to build off an effective rookie year against the visiting Steelers in Week 1. Chase introduced himself to Pittsburgh by accumulating four catches for 65 yards and two touchdowns back in Week 3 last season. However, Week 12 was different, as the former LSU Tiger had only […]

Joe Mixon Faces Familiar Foe In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon will look to build off a fantastic 2021-22 campaign with a matchup with Pittsburgh in Week 1. Mixon has had mixed success versus the Steelers over the years. However, in Week 12 of last season, he had his best performance against the AFC North rival, accumulating 165 yards and […]

John Bates Expected To Play On Sunday

Washington Commanders tight end John Bates (calf) practiced fully throughout the week and is expected to suit up on Sunday against the Jaguars. With Logan Thomas (knee) and Cole Turner (hamstring) also banged up, the team may lean more on Bates in Week 1. However, that doesn't mean he'll make a good fantasy option, so […]

Darren Waller Agrees To Extension

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller has agreed to a three-year extension. The veteran will earn $51 million in new cash, ending a months-long negotiation process. The 29-year-old has accumulated 3,184 yards and 16 touchdowns off 270 catches during his career. He played only 11 games last season due to injury. However, if Waller […]

Cam Sims Good To Go For Week 1

Washington Commanders wide receiver Cam Sims (concussion) will play on Sunday against Jacksonville. The 26-year-old suffered a concussion during the preseason and spent some time in protocol. With that said, Sims isn't expected to play a substantial role in the offense this season and should remain behind Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson on the depth […]

Drew Sample Practices In Full On Friday

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Drew Sample was a full participant during Friday's practice, so he should be ready for the AFC North showdown against Pittsburgh. The team didn't list why Sample was on the injury report. However, he did deal with a knee injury over the summer. Nevertheless, the 26-year-old remains behind Hayden Hurst on […]

Cole Turner Questionable Against Jags

Washington Commanders tight end Cole Turner (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's opener against the Jaguars. The rookie has looked good this summer, so there is potential for a more prominent role throughout the season. He has practiced in a limited fashion during the week. However, with Logan Thomas (knee) uncertain for Week 1, Turner could […]

Cade Otton Continues To Receive Praise

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton may carve out a bigger role for himself this season. Although head coach Todd Bowles and offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich have previously stated they will utilize a committee approach, Otton has stood out. The rookie will mostly battle Cameron Brate and Kyle Rudolph this year for Tom Brady's […]

Raiders, Darren Waller Nearing Contract Extension

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller and the team are "closing in" on a contract extension, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Waller has two years remaining on his current deal but is looking to be compensated for his increased productivity over the years. The 29-year-old is coming off a down season, finishing the […]

A.J. Brown Has Allergic Reaction To Bee Sting On Friday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (allergic reaction) was stung by a bee prior to Friday's practice. As a result, the wideout, who has been allergic most of his life, needed an EpiPen. While the 25-year-old did have some trouble breathing, he is expected to be ready to roll for the season opener against the […]

Azeez Ojulari Not Expected To Play In Season Opener

New York Giants linebacker Azeez Ojulari (calf) is not expected to play in Week 1 against the Titans. The 22-year-old is a game-time call. However, things aren't looking promising. Ojulari had a fantastic rookie year in 2021, finishing with 49 total tackles and eight sacks, so being without him will be a tough blow for […]

Kayvon Thibodeaux Doubtful Versus Tennessee

New York Giants defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux (knee) is a game-time call for the Week 1 opener versus the Titans. However, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the rookie isn't expected to play. Thibodeaux suffered a sprained MCL during the preseason and was projected to miss three to four weeks, so his anticipated absence on […]

Kyren Williams Out Six To Eight Weeks

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams (ankle) suffered a high-ankle sprain during the season opener against the Buffalo Bills. As a result, he underwent surgery on Friday and will be out for six to eight weeks. The rookie played only one snap in Week 1, so fantasy managers never really saw him in action. […]

Velus Jones Jr. Doubtful For Week 1

Chicago Bears wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring) isn't expected to play on Sunday during the season opener against the visiting 49ers. The rookie hasn't practiced all week because of a hamstring issue, so his official debut may not happen until Week 2, although that's up in the air as well. Nevertheless, with the team […]

Joe Burrow Ready For AFC North Showdown In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will begin the year with an AFC North showdown against the Steelers. The 25-year-old played relatively well in his two meetings versus Pittsburgh last season, accumulating 362 yards and four touchdowns (two picks) while completing 81% of his throws. With a mid-summer appendectomy behind him, he'll have Ja'Marr Chase, Tee […]

Malcolm Hill Returning To Chicago

Free-agent guard Malcolm Hill agreed to a two-way contract with the Bulls. The 26-year-old averaged 3.4 points and 1.8 rebounds in 16 games in Chicago last season. Obviously, those numbers won't make him a coveted fantasy option heading into the 2022-23 campaign. However, he's still worth a stash in dynasty leagues, at least for now.
