Raheem Mostert Does Not Have An ACL Injury

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (knee) doesn't have an ACL injury, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Although that is good news, it certainly doesn't paint a clearer picture of the type of ailment plaguing the 29-year-old. After Mostert's premature exit against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, rookie Elijah Mitchell entered and had […]

Jedrick Wills Carted To The Locker Room

Cleveland Browns offensive lineman Jedrick Wills (ankle) was injured during Sunday's season opener against the Chiefs. The sophomore tackle injured his ankle on a Jarvis Landry scoring play, which is unfortunate news considering he is expected to play a crucial role this season. He was subsequently examined in the medical tent before ultimately being carted […]

Austin Ekeler Officially Active For Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's opener against the Washington Football Team. He will also be a "full-go," which is undoubtedly good news, especially for those in PPR leagues. As a result, fantasy managers should classify him as a must-start in every format imaginable in Week 1.

Keelan Cole A “True Game-Time Decision”

New York Jets wide receiver Keelan Cole (hamstring) is considered a game-time call for the opener against the Panthers. Cole "tweaked" his hamstring during practice throughout the week, so if he is officially ruled out, the team will be down another wideout after Jamison Crowder will sit to adhere to the league's health and safety […]

Darnell Mooney Should Be Good To Go

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (back) is anticipated to be good to go for the season opener against the Rams. He has been dealing with a back injury recently, but he practiced in full on Friday, which virtually slammed the door on any questions surrounding his availability. The 23-year-old will be entering his sophomore […]

Preston Williams Likely Out In Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) is likely out for Week 1 against New England. The 24-year-old has been riding a questionable tag leading up to the opener. However, it appears as if he hasn't fully recovered from the season-ending foot surgery that relegated him to just eight games during the 2020 campaign. With […]

Emmanuel Sanders Likely Available In Week 1

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (foot) is anticipated to be active for the season opener against the visiting Steelers. The veteran has battled a foot injury throughout most of the preseason, but it appears as if he is at least healthy enough to see the field in Week 1. Nonetheless, while Sanders certainly has […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Likely To Play Against Chiefs

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) is officially a game-time call but is expected to play on Sunday against Kansas City. Beckham suffered a season-ending ACL tear during a Week 7 clash against Cincinnati in 2020 and has been making his way back ever since. Still, even with his anticipated presence on the […]

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hamstring) is expected to play during the season opener against the Washington Football Team.

E’Twaun Moore Inks Deal With Orlando

Free-agent forward E'Twaun Moore agreed to a contract with the Orlando Magic on Saturday. The deal is for the veteran's minimum and is fully guaranteed, and it comes after the 32-year-old averaged only 4.9 points throughout 27 games with Phoenix last season. Moore isn't expected to see much time on the floor with his newest […]

Bradley Beal Could Become A Trade Option Once Again

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal currently remains off the trade market. Still, that could change at some point throughout the year, primarily with the nine-year veteran entering the final season of his current contract. Washington would certainly love to keep Beal on the roster moving ahead. Nonetheless, if signs point toward him walking away next […]

Zach LaVine Could Be On Celtics Radar

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine has yet to agree on a contract extension with his current employer. However, with the 26-year-old entering the final year of his most recent deal, the Celtics are a possible favorite to acquire his services in a trade, especially if the Bulls are in danger of not getting anything back […]

Ja’Marr Chase Beginning Rookie Season Against Vikings

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will begin his inaugural season on Sunday against Minnesota. The former LSU Tiger was picked with the fifth overall selection in the NFL Draft, reuniting him with former collegiate teammate Joe Burrow. He has plenty of hype moving ahead, although a rocky preseason filled with dropped passes has significantly […]

Joe Burrow Back For Sophomore Campaign Versus Vikings

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will begin his sophomore season against the visiting Vikings on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium. Burrow was one of the league's most impactful rookies during the 2020 campaign. However, a left knee injury suffered back in November ended his year. With his first season now behind him, the former LSU […]

Tee Higgins Expected To Be A Top Wideout In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins will commence his second season as a professional against the visiting Vikings on Sunday. The 22-year-old was fantastic during his inaugural year, finishing with 67 catches for 908 yards and six touchdowns, partially doing so without Joe Burrow, who sustained a season-ending knee injury in Week 11. While Ja'Marr […]

Joe Mixon Kicking Off Fifth Season Against Vikings

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is surely a must-start option in all fantasy formats against Minnesota. The former Sooner had a miserable 2020 campaign, appearing in only six games because of a foot injury. However, after having a fantastic offseason, the veteran could be on track for his most productive season to date, beginning […]

Ben Simmons Recently Linked To Cavaliers

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons remains estranged from his current team. After things took a downward spiral once the Sixers were eliminated during the postseason, recent reports indicate that Simmons is not interested in reporting to training camp. Although many teams have emerged as potential suitors to acquire the former LSU Tiger's services, he has […]

Kevin Love Could See Minimal Playing Time

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love continues to see his stock plummet entering the 2021-22 campaign. After the veteran recently indicated he wasn't interested in receiving a buyout, current rumblings now suggest that he may be relegated to around six minutes per game this season. That projection seems plausible, primarily with the team focused on the […]

Michael Porter Jr. Optimistic About Extension

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. Remains optimistic that a contract extension will get done. Porter had his best statistical output as a professional last season, averaging 19.0 points and 7.3 assists while shooting a whopping 44.5 percent from deep. The 23-year-old will be entering the final year of his rookie contract if an agreement […]

Harry Giles III Heading To Los Angeles

Free-agent center Harry Giles III agreed to a non-guaranteed deal with the Clippers on Tuesday. The 23-year-old has been a massive disappointment after being selected with the 20th overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. He has battled injuries over the years, appearing in 38 games last season as a member of the Portland Trail […]

Keita Bates-Diop Remaining In San Antonio

San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop has agreed to a new two-year deal. The terms of the contract were undisclosed, but it was apparently enough to retain his services after the franchise extended a qualifying offer to him back in July. The 25-year-old former Ohio State Buckeye appeared in only 30 professional contests last season, […]

T.J. Warren Remains Out Indefinitely

Indiana Pacers guard T.J. Warren (foot) remains out indefinitely. The veteran continues to rehab after having surgery back in January to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. With Warren's recent efforts to make it back to the court not going so well, likely, he may not be back in the lineup for months, […]

O.J. Howard Likely To Play In The Opener

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (Achilles) is expected to suit up for Thursday's matchup against the Cowboys. The 26-year-old suffered a season-ending Achilles tear back in October of last year and was relegated to playing in just four games as a result. Still, before succumbing to the injury, Howard racked up 11 catches […]

Chris Godwin Update Not Expected Until Warmups

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (quadriceps) will likely be a true game-time call for the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. The veteran wideout reportedly "tweaked" his quad, which caused him to practice in a limited capacity on Tuesday. Although Godwin has a history of playing through ailments over the years, he may […]

Ja’Marr Chase Not Concerned With Preseason Play

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase isn't concerned about his performance during the preseason. During a recent interview, the rookie acknowledged his shortcomings as a professional thus far while also embracing the opportunity to improve. The No. 5 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft struggled with dropped passes during exhibition play over the last […]

Joe Burrow Not Concerned About His Knee

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow isn't concerned about his health heading into the regular season. Instead, his attention is focused on leading the franchise to an AFC North title and into the postseason. The sophomore signal-caller was on the cusp of being named the league's Rookie of the Year award winner last year. Yet, after […]

Brandon Aiyuk Unlikely For Double Duty

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (hamstring) continues to practice. However, as he proceeds to recover from a hamstring ailment suffered during the preseason finale, his role during Week 1 may be reserved to a punt returner exclusively. While that could change, it appears as if Deebo Samuel and George Kittle could be in […]

D’Andre Swift “In A Better Spot” Ahead Of Week 1

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) has a better chance to play during the opener against the 49ers. On Monday, head coach Dan Campbell indicated that Swift "is in a better spot," suggesting that he is moving in the right direction. Although the rookie seems to be fully recovered from a nagging groin injury, […]

Kaden Smith Doesn’t Practice On Monday

New York Giants tight end Kaden Smith (undisclosed) didn't practice with the rest of the team on Monday. Instead, he remained on the sidelines. It's unknown why the 24-year-old wasn't a participant, but it certainly isn't good news, primarily with Evan Engram (calf) unlikely to play in Week 1. Nonetheless, Smith's status should be updated […]
