Is Sam LaPorta Injured or Playing Today? Should I Start Brock Wright For Fantasy Football?

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta has been one of the best rookies at the position in NFL history, and his presence in the high-powered passing game led by Jared Goff is a tremendous boost. The Iowa product was questionable heading into last week's Wild Card game against the Philadelphia Eagles, but he played and […]

NFL DFS: FanDuel Daily Fantasy Football Picks - Top Lineups (Divisional Round)

Unfortunately, the Wild Card Round of this year's NFL Playoffs produced a ton of blowouts, with the Rams vs. Lions matchup being the only game in doubt late in the fourth quarter.

Brock Wright Could Enter DFS Radar Against Buccaneers

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright caught just 13 passes for 91 yards and a touchdown during the regular season, but if Sam LaPorta (knee) cannot suit up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, he will enter the DFS radar.

Jameson Williams Low On DFS Radar On Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams came back from an ankle injury to face the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Wild Card Round last week, but he caught just two passes for 19 yards. The speedster has seen three or fewer targets in ten of his 13 games this year, meaning he's clearly not […]

Josh Reynolds A Bargain DFS Option Against Tampa Bay

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds was the team's second-most productive during the regular season, and the trend continued in the win over the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the NFC playoffs. Reynolds hauled in five passes for 80 yards to help defeat his former team. This week, he has plenty of […]

Sam LaPorta Should See More Action In Divisional Round Contest

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (knee) practiced in full to begin the week leading up to the NFC Divisional Round contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Remains Elite DFS Option Against Buccaneers

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown racked up at least 95 receiving yards in 10 of his 16 regular season games, and he did it again in the wild-card win over the Los Angeles Rams by catching seven passes for 110 yards.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs rushed eight times for 25 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 48 yards in the NFC Wild Card win over the Los Angeles Rams.

David Montgomery In A Letdown Spot On Sunday

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery rushed for over 1,000 yards and scored 13 touchdowns in the regular season, and he found the end zone in the Wild Card win over the Los Angeles Rams.

Jared Goff Draws Another Favorable Matchup Against Buccaneers

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff was excellent in the Wild Card win over his former team, the Los Angeles Rams. He completed 22 of his 27 passing attempts, threw a touchdown, and did not commit a turnover.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday after missing the team's first practice of the week on Tuesday. The 24-year-old is dealing with a knee injury.

Marlon Humphrey Still Absent On Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey (calf) missed practice for the second straight day due to a calf injury. Sitting out Tuesday's and Wednesday's practices is not a good sign for his availability on Saturday against the Houston Texans, but since it's a playoff game, he could play without practicing all week. The Ravens would like […]

Zay Flowers Returns To Practice On Tuesday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (calf) returned to practice on Tuesday after sitting out all of the team's practices during the bye week.
