Dodgers Considered Favorites For Roki Sasaki

The Los Angeles Dodgers are considered the front runners and heavy favorites to sign young Japanese pitching phenom Roki Sasaki.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell capitalized on the absence of Michael Pittman Jr. in Week 10, snaring all six of his targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Bills.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs led his team in targets and receptions in Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Bills, hauling in seven of 10 passes thrown his way for 72 yards.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor rushed 21 times for 114 yards in Sunday's 30-20 loss to the Bills, tacking on two receptions for eight yards.

After a two-catch performance in Week 9 as a result of exiting early due to injury, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (hip) was much busier in Week 10, hauling in eight of 12 targets for 97 yards in a 20-17 loss to the Saints and allaying any concerns about his hip. It was just […]

Falcons Defense Usable In Week 10 Against Reeling Saints

The Falcons defense has not been great this season by any means, recording seven interceptions, three fumble recoveries, and a league-low nine sacks. However, Week 10 brings a matchup with the Saints, a team that will be without their top two receivers, Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed, without rookie wideout Bub Means, without veteran receiver […]

Tyler Allgeier A Risky Flex Play In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier found the end zone last week to the displeasure of Bijan Robinson managers, and if he hadn't it would have been a terribly quiet day, logging just six carries for 18 yards while not recording even a single target for the second consecutive week. Allgeier's involvement has been a […]

Alec Pierce Still A Boom/Bust WR5 In Week 10

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce hauled in three passes for 41 yards in Week 9 after totaling three catches for 36 yards over the prior three weeks.

Jonathan Taylor An RB1 Against Subpar Bills Rush Defense

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was held in check in Week 9 against a stout Vikings rush defense, but Week 10 brings a much more favorable matchup.

Josh Downs To Get Plenty Of Looks As WR2 In Week 10

Joe Flacco A Low-End QB2 In Week 10

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Joe Flacco started in place of the struggling Anthony Richardson in Week 9 versus the Vikings, but the veteran QB was unable to get the offense going, completing 16 of 27 passes for 179 yards, no touchdowns, one interception, and a fumble.

Bijan Robinson An RB1 In Week 10 Versus Struggling Saints Defense

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson was held out of the end zone in Week 9 for the first time since Week 5 but is in prime position to find paydirt again in Week 10. The second-year pro has scored four rushing TDs and one receiving TD on the year, while the Falcons' Week 10 […]

Darnell Mooney A Dependable WR2 In Week 10

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney has topped 80 yards receiving and scored in two consecutive games, continuing to earn consistent looks in the Falcon passing attack.

Ben Brown To Have Injured Neck Scanned This Month

Chicago Cubs pitcher Ben Brown (neck) is expected to have a scan on his neck in the coming weeks, and if he gets the all-clear, then the 25-year-old could resume throwing without restriction.

Astros Having Discussions About Trading Ryan Pressly

The Houston Astros have had internal discussions related to potentially trading reliever Ryan Pressly. The 35-year-old was moved to a setup role in 2024 once the Astros acquired closer Josh Hader.

Sterling Shepard Grabs Four Passes, Rushes Twice In Week 9 Loss

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard caught four of five targets for 48 yards in Monday night's 30-24 overtime loss to the Chiefs, adding two rushes for 21 yards.
