Undoubtedly, the number of absences heading into Sunday is troubling for fantasy managers, especially […]

Is James Conner Playing Today? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 15

James Conner has unexpectedly been one of the year's most intriguing yet productive fantasy options. After becoming a household name in 2018 by accumulating 13 total touchdowns, the 26-year-old quickly gained popularity, especially from those partaking in formats that reward one point per reception (PPR). However, the two subsequent years told another story, as Conner […]

Jimmy Smith Lands On COVID List

Baltimore Ravens defensive back Jimmy Smith (illness) won't play in Week 15 versus Green Bay. The 33-year-old tested positive for COVID-19, which isn't good for a team that has battled numerous injuries on the defensive end all year, especially in the secondary. However, it is good news for Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who should benefit […]

Jalen Ramsey Will Play On Tuesday Night

Los Angeles Rams defensive back Jalen Ramsey tested negative for COVID-19 and will play in Week 15 against the Seahawks. The 27-year-old didn't suit up in Week 14 after being an occupant on the reserve/COVID-19 list, so the team is certainly pleased to have one its top defensive weapons back in the mix. However, It's […]

DeAndre Hopkins Could Return For NFC Championship

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (knee) "could be back" for the NFC Championship or Super Bowl, assuming the team advances that far.

Zach Ertz On Track To Play In Week 15

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring) is expected to suit up for the Week 15 matchup against Detroit.

Nonetheless, with wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (knee) out, the 31-year-old veteran could see a few more looks from quarterback […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Won't Play Against Brooklyn

Orlando Magic forward/center Wendell Carter Jr. (leg) won't play against Brooklyn. The 22-year-old sustained a muscle strain during Friday's matchup against the Heat and was taken back to the locker room in a wheelchair. This certainly isn't ideal, mainly with most of the team out because of health and safety protocols. Nonetheless, it appears as […]

RJ Barrett Out Again On Saturday Night

New York Knicks forward RJ Barrett is listed as out ahead of Saturday's contest in Boston. This will be his fourth straight absence while he remains sidelined because of health and safety protocols.

Kevin Durant Placed In Health And Safety Protocols

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (ankle) was already ruled out ahead of Saturday's matchup against Orlando. However, the former MVP was placed in health and safety protocols, so he is now in line to miss more time.

Kyrie Irving Enters Health And Safety Protocols

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving has entered health and safety protocols. The veteran, who is notably unvaccinated, reportedly returned a positive or inconclusive COVID-19 test.

However, Josh Richardson, who had 15 points on Friday […]

Grant Williams Remains In Health And Safety Protocols

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams won't play against the Knicks on Saturday. Williams, along with teammates Al Horford and Jabari Parker, isn't available as the trio remains in health and safety protocols. As a result, Robert Williams III, who had 11 rebounds, seven points, and a block against the Warriors on Friday night, should continue […]

Al Horford Out Again On Saturday

The veteran is out to adhere to health and safety protocols surrounding COVID-19, his second straight absence after he didn't suit up against Golden State on Friday evening.

Terry McLaurin Placed In Concussion Protocol

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin (concussion) has been placed in concussion protocol, putting his availability in jeopardy for Week 15 versus Philadelphia.

Tim Patrick Doesn't Do Much In Week 14

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick finished Sunday's win over the Lions with two catches for 21 yards. The four-year man out of Utah certainly hasn't done much all year outside of the rare trip to the end zone, and he's done even less over his last three appearances by recording less than two grabs […]

Courtland Sutton Has Just One Catch On Sunday

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had just one catch for nine yards during the win over Detroit on Sunday. It was another uneventful showing for the 26-year-old, who now has only two grabs or less in each of his previous six contests. With the Broncos relying more and more on Javonte Williams and Melvin […]

Albert Okwuegbunam Scores A Touchdown In Week 14

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam finished the Week 14 win over the Lions by pulling in all five of his targets for 41 yards and a touchdown.

Jerry Jeudy Has Five Catches In Week 14

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had a team-high five catches to finish with 47 yards during the win over the Lions on Sunday.

Noah Fant Leads Broncos In Receiving In Week 14

Denver Broncos wide receiver Noah Fant led his team in receiving during the Week 14 win over Detroit, finishing with four catches for a team-high 51 yards.

Javonte Williams Keeps It Going In Week 14

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams finished with 73 yards and a touchdown off 15 attempts during the win over Detroit on Sunday. He also caught a catch, which resulted in another score. The 21-year-old certainly had another fantastic showing, doing so even with Melvin Gordon III in the lineup. He now has four touchdowns […]

Melvin Gordon III Scores Twice On Sunday

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon had a fantastic outing during the massive win over the Lions on Sunday, finishing with 111 yards and two touchdowns off a team-high 24 carries.

The veteran threw for 179 yards and two touchdowns on 18-for-25 passing, connecting with rookie Javonte Williams with a 14-yard throw in the third quarter and a four-yard toss to Albert Okwuegbunam in garbage time. Bridgewater and company remain […]

Andy Dalton Officially Out Against Packers

Chicago Bears quarterback Andy Dalton (hand) is inactive for the AFC North battle against Green Bay. The veteran wasn't expected to suit up all along, and even if he did, he would have been relegated to a backup role behind rookie Justin Fields. Nonetheless, Nick Foles now will take over for Dalton, although he doesn't have […]

Marquise Goodwin Officially Out On Sunday Night

Chicago Bears wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (foot) won't play on Sunday night against Green Bay. This isn't a surprise, mainly since the 31-year-old had been trending in this direction throughout the week. Fortunately, Allen Robinson II (hamstring) is active, so Justin Fields will likely make him the preferred option. Darnell Mooney should also get some […]

X-Rays Negative For Giovani Bernard

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard (hip) won't return to the Week 14 matchup against Buffalo. The veteran sustained a hip injury during the contest. Fortunately, X-rays were negative for a fracture, but Bernard will undergo further testing on Monday to determine the severity of the ailment. Nonetheless, it's not a significant loss for […]

Austin Ekeler Questionable To Return Against Giants

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Giants. However, considering the score, it's likely we've seen the last of the 26-year-old in Week 14. Ekeler seemingly reaggravated the same left ankle issue that landed him on the injury report heading into the contest, so Justin […]

Melvin Gordon III Returns To Week 14

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon (hand) returned to Sunday's matchup against Denver. The 28-year-old briefly exited because of a hand injury but was able to return. He's had a fantastic game despite the brief departure, racking up 89 yards and two touchdowns off 16 touches. Nonetheless, it's still something for fantasy managers to keep […]
