Jakeem Grant Sr. Possesses Deep League Appeal In Week 14

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. is explosive as they come in the punt return game, but that hasn't always translated to success as a wide receiver. Undoubtedly valuable to his team, Grant's fantasy stock has been tempered by his lack of inclusion in the passing game most weeks. That shouldn't change in Week […]

Seattle Banks On Rashaad Penny’s Impact Down The Stretch

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (knee) has rejoined the team at practice ahead of its Week 14 matchup against the Jets on Sunday and has already drawn rave reviews from head coach Pete Carroll. Deemed a "very positive initial return," it sounds as if the Seahawks will ease Penny back into action, but the […]

Chase Claypool Misses Practice Thursday Due To Illness

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool (illness) was absent from Thursday's practice, putting his status for Sunday's game against Buffalo up in the air. Claypool's usage (44 percent of the team's offensive snaps) took a sharp downturn last week versus Washington, making him a risky play in Week 14 even without any illness concerns. Should […]

Allen Robinson II Continues To Be Limited In Practice Thursday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (knee) has entered his latest handful of contests with a questionable tag as he works through a knee injury. Robinson logged his second consecutive limited practice Thursday, although unless he takes a significant step back, he should be in line to take the field Sunday against Houston. Having […]

Jonnu Smith Returns To Log Full Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith (knee) sat out last week's game due to a knee injury, but was able to return to practice Thursday in a full capacity, which bodes well for his status Sunday against Jacksonville.

A.J. Brown Remains Sidelined For Thursday’s Practice

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) continued his trend of sitting out practice Thursday as he nurses an ankle injury. Brown has consistently been absent from practices throughout the year, but that clearly hasn't hampered his production come game time as he has compiled 725 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in 10 games this […]

Josh Jacobs Returns To Practice Field Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) was able to return to the field for practice Thursday, just a day after sitting out as he continues to nurse his ankle injury. Earlier in the week, head coach Jon Gruden had expressed pessimism at having his top back on the field Sunday against Indianapolis, but […]

Hayden Hurst Logs Limited Practice Session Thursday

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst (ankle) was limited during Thursday's practice, putting his status for Sunday's contest against the Chargers up in the air. Hurst was able to suit up last week, so as long as he doesn't take a significant step back during Friday's practice, he should ultimately get the green light to […]

Jamison Crowder, Breshad Perriman Limited In Practice Thursday

New York Jets wide receivers Jamison Crowder (calf) and Breshad Perriman (shoulder) were both limited during Thursday's practice, making their status for Sunday's game against Seattle a bit up in the air.

Ryan Izzo Lands On Injured Reserve With Neck Ailment

New England Patriots tight end Ryan Izzo (neck) was placed on Injured Reserve prior to Thursday's game against the Rams, and he will now miss at least the next three contests.

But following Monday's loss to the Bills, head coach Kyle Shanahan noted that while both players are hard at […]

Tyler Ervin Heads To Injured Reserve With Foot Ailment

Green Bay Packers running back Tyler Ervin (foot) is set to be placed on Injured Reserve due to a foot ailment, which could very well end his 2020 season. With just four games remaining in the regular season, Ervin is expected to miss at least a month due to the injury that he sustained in […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kick/punt returner Jaydon Mickens had been placed on waivers Monday, but just a day later, he rejoined the team's practice squad after not being claimed.

Isaiah Ford Rejoins Dolphins

Wide receiver Isaiah Ford had been traded from Miami to New England at the trade deadline, but after being placed on waivers, he has landed back with the Dolphins, where he is expected to join the team's practice squad.

Billy Winn Lands On Injured Reserve With Triceps Injury

Green Bay Packers defensive tackle Billy Winn (triceps) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, putting him out for at least the next three weeks. With that in mind, the team does not believe that he'll be forced to miss the remainder of the season, as there is no tear in his triceps, giving him […]

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Anthony Averett (shoulder) was activated off Injured Reserve prior to Tuesday's game versus the Cowboys, paving the way for him to make his first on-field appearance since Week 6.

Adam Humphries Lands On Injured Reserve

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries (concussion) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, putting him out for at least the next three games. Humphries has battled concussion issues over the past four weeks, returning to play Sunday against Cleveland. That return was short-lived, though, as he now faces the prospect of missing the rest […]

Arizona Activates Larry Fitzgerald From COVID-19 List

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has been activated from the COVID-19 list as of Tuesday, paving the way for the veteran to return to action Sunday against the Giants. Fitzgerald has been sidelined due to the virus since Week 11, when he saw a season-high 10 targets. While the likely future Hall of Famer has […]

Arizona Hopes To Have Larry Fitzgerald Back In Near Future

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has been out of the mix since Week 11 after testing positive for COVID-19, and head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that the team is hoping to have the veteran back on the field "soon." Despite not having hauled in a touchdown yet during 2020, Fitzgerald has been an integral […]

Drew Brees Without Timetable For Return To Field

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (ribs) is eligible to return to action as soon as Sunday's game versus Philadelphia, but per head coach Sean Payton, the likely future Hall of Famer is still without a timetable to take the field. Payton noted that Brees will continue his rehab, although that does not necessarily indicate […]

Bills Defense Gets Matt Milano Back For Monday’s Game

Buffalo Bills linebacker Matt Milano (pectoral) has been activated from Injured Reserve, paving the way for him to take the field for Monday's contest against San Francisco.

Las Vegas Expects Josh Jacobs To Remain Out In Week 14

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (knee) missed his first game of the season during Sunday's win over the Jets, and per head coach Jon Gruden, it looks like the knee injury is expected to create a multi-game absence for Jacobs, knocking him out next Sunday versus the Colts. Fortunately, Gruden's statement was made […]

Cam Newton Tagged As Limited Practice Participant Monday

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton (abdomen) was listed as a limited practice participant had there been an on-field practice Monday. Newton was originally questionable to play during Sunday's win over the Chargers, but was able to suit up, meaning that his placement back on the injury report is likely maintenance-related. The Patriots have just […]

Antonio Gibson Out For Rest Of Monday’s Game With Toe Injury

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (toe) will not return for the second half of Monday's game against the Steelers due to a toe injury that he sustained earlier in the contest. Gibson carried the ball twice for 14 yards prior to his departure. While J.D. McKissic has been often utilized alongside Gibson, Peyton […]

San Francisco 49ers cornerbacks Emmanuel Moseley (hamstring) and K'Waun Williams (ankle) have been ruled out for Monday's game against the Bills, creating a chasm in the team's secondary when it comes to covering the slot.

Cincinnati Bengals safety Shawn Williams and Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Teair Tart were both tagged with a one-game suspension Monday following incidents in Week 13 which involved both players stepping on an opponent.

Tyler Kroft Inactive Monday; Dawson Knox Has Strong Upside

Buffalo Bills tight end Tyler Kroft was deemed inactive Monday against San Francisco, marking the second consecutive week that he has been a healthy scratch. Kroft, despite having accrued three touchdowns this season, has not suited up since Week 9; his absence leaves the door open for Dawson Knox to be a considerable pass-catching threat […]

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (shoulder) delivered the breakout performance of his rookie season Sunday against the Cardinals, but he has now popped up on the injury report for Week 14 due to a shoulder ailment.

Seattle Eyes Full Workload For Chris Carson In Week 14

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson has found the end zone in each of his two contests since returning from a foot injury, but head coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Carson was still not 100 percent back. Carson saw both a bump in usage and snap count during Sunday's loss to the Giants, but […]

Browns Run-Heavy Offense Zaps Rashard Higgins’ Appeal

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Rashard Higgins looked earlier this season as if he would benefit immensely within the team's offense after the loss of Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) for the remainder of the season. But after logging his fifth game of the year last week with one catch or fewer, Higgins has lost any season-long […]
