Diontae Johnson Says He'll Return In Week 7

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring) said he will play in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Rams after the team's Week 6 bye. The 27-year-old has missed the last four games on Injured Reserve, so he will be eligible to return. It's too early to take his word on it and fantasy managers […]

P.J. Walker To Start If Deshaun Watson Can't Return In Week 6

Cleveland Browns quarterback P.J. Walker will start against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 if Deshaun Watson (shoulder) can't play. Rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson started in Week 4 but threw for just 121 yards and three interceptions. Walker signed with the Browns' practice squad in late August after being released by the Chicago Bears. Against […]

Van Jefferson Being Traded To Falcons

The Los Angeles Rams are trading wide receiver Van Jefferson and a 2025 seventh-round pick to the Atlanta Falcons in exchange for a 2025 sixth-round pick. With the emergence of Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell and the return of Cooper Kupp, Jefferson quickly became the odd man out in L.A. Jefferson could now start in […]

Is David Njoku Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku has started slow this season, catching just 16 passes for 138 yards and no touchdowns through four weeks. That said, he's a super athletic tight end with a high ceiling, so he remains on the fantasy radar. However, the 27-year-old is in the injury headlines heading into Week 6, […]

Is Justin Jefferson Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson has been a fantasy football superstar since entering the NFL in 2020. The LSU product has racked up 360 receptions for 5,396 yards, and 28 touchdowns in his first 55 games. Unfortunately, the All-Pro suffered an injury in Week 5, and his status is up in the air moving […]

Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 6: Gardner Minshew, Tyjae Spears, K.J. Osborn, Josh Downs, Jeff Wilson Jr., more

Early in the NFL season, the waiver wire is all about jumping on the unexpected breakout players. Now, the process can be more geared toward identifying one-week streamers and picking up players who could help you at some point in the year. In deep leagues, the waiver wire is becoming ultra-thin, so most players with […]

Sam LaPorta Scores Pair Of Touchdowns In Win

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta caught three of his four targets for 47 yards and two touchdowns in the 42-24 win over the Carolina Panthers. He had a bright outlook in the absence of Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) and ultimately delivered once again for fantasy managers. The rookie from Iowa has 25 receptions for […]

Jared Goff Finds End Zone Four Times In Win

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 20 of his 28 passing attempts for 236 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions in the Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers. He also scored a one-yard rushing touchdown, so he boomed for fantasy managers in Week 5. The veteran signal-caller posted a big showing despite the absence […]

Ryan Tannehill Fails To Score Touchdown In Week 5

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 23 of his 34 passing attempts for 264 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He was efficient for most of the game but missed a few end zone shots and threw an interception at the end of the game in […]

Derrick Henry Posts 62 Yards On 16 Touches

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry rushed 13 times for 43 yards and caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The 29-year-old struggled to find running room all game and once again underwhelmed in the fantasy point column. He'll face a tough matchup with […]

Tyjae Spears Scores First Career Touchdown

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears rushed seven times for 34 yards and a touchdown and caught four of his five targets for 35 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. It was the rookie's third game with at least ten touches, so he is becoming an attractive low-end flex play in […]

DeAndre Hopkins Racks Up 140 Yards In Loss

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught eight of his 10 targets for 140 yards in the 23-16 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The 31-year-old veteran had his best performance as a Titan and delivered a big day for fantasy managers. After posting a combined 203 receiving yards over the last two weeks, his fantasy […]

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5: Jonathan Taylor, Alexander Mattison, Brandon Aiyuk

Bye weeks begin in Week 5, making start-or-sit decisions tougher for fantasy managers. It's time for last-minute lineup swaps ahead of the Week 5 slate. Jonathan Taylor, Alexander Mattison, and Brandon Aiyuk are all hot names ahead of Sunday's games. Taylor is set to return from the PUP list, Mattison has been underwhelming, and Aiyuk […]

Overrated and Underrated College Football Teams - Reviewing NCAA CFB Rankings For Week 6

The Week 5 college football slate was another entertaining one filled with great games and drama. We're approaching the midway point of the 2023 campaign, so the contenders and pretenders are starting to reveal themselves. We'll get more clarity as the season moves along, but there are still some overvalued and undervalued teams ahead of […]

Titans Defense A Low-End Streamer In Week 5

The Tennessee Titans defense has exceeded expectations this season, posting 13 sacks, holding opponents to 311.3 yards per game (12th-best), and limiting opponents to 17.5 points per game (eighth-best). Tennessee held Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals to just three points in Week 4 and has wreaked havoc with its defensive front. However, the Colts […]

Nick Folk Has Streaming Value In Week 5

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has made all 10 of his field-goal attempts and all six of his extra-point attempts through four games this season. The veteran looks confident from any distance, making him an intriguing Week 5 streaming option. The 38-year-old ranks sixth in total fantasy points (43) at the position after finishing last […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo Remains Off Fantasy Radar

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo has hauled in just 10 passes on 13 targets for 73 yards this season. Needless to say, that isn't fantasy-viable production over a four-game stretch, so he should not be trusted in fantasy lineups until further notice. The second-year tight end failed to deliver last week in the absence […]

DeAndre Hopkins Has WR2 Upside In Week 5

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins hasn't gotten out to a prolific start in 2023, but he leads the team in targets (31), receptions (18), and receiving yards (216). Last week against the Cincinnati Bengals, he was inches away from scoring touchdowns on two separate occasions, so hopefully, a boom week is coming soon. It […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine A Deep-League Flex Option

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has hauled in 12 passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns this season. The 26-year-old is far from a fantasy superstar, but if Treylon Burks (knee) misses the Week 5 contest against the Indianapolis Colts, he could be worth starting in deep formats. The Colts have allowed the ninth-most […]

Derrick Henry In For Another Big Day Against Colts

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has rushed for at least 103 yards in six of his last seven games against the AFC South-rival Indianapolis Colts. He has scored five touchdowns in those seven games and has the chance for another big game against its defense in Week 5. The Colts have allowed the 13th-most […]

Ryan Tannehill A Low-Floor Steamer Against Colts

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has thrown for 788 yards, two touchdowns, and four interceptions in 2023. He's added 28 yards and a touchdown as a runner. His stats are far from impressive, but Tennessee's offense came alive in Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals, so hopefully, brighter days are ahead of the 35-year-old signal-caller. […]

Lions Defense A Strong Streamer Against Panthers

The Detroit Lions defense has exceeded expectations so far this year. Dan Campbell's stop unit is 13th in points per game allowed (20.8), seventh in sacks (13), and first in rushing yards allowed per game (60.8). In Week 5, the Lions matchup with the Carolina Panthers, who have scored just 16.8 points per game (ninth-fewest) […]

Riley Patterson Not Worth Starting In Week 5

Detroit Lions kicker Riley Patterson is set to face the Carolina Panthers in Week 5, and although the Lions are expected to put up plenty of points in this contest, the 24-year-old is not on the fantasy radar. Patterson has scored just 28 fantasy points this season (23rd), and Detroit has attempted fourth down conversions […]

Jameson Williams A Shaky Flex Option In Season Debut

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is set to return from a suspension for violating the NFL's gambling policy in Week 5. Williams was originally suspended for six weeks, but the league changed its policy and reduced his suspension to four games. He'll face the struggling Carolina Panthers defense on Sunday, but his floor is […]

Sam LaPorta Has TE1 Outlook In Week 5

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta leads all tight ends in receiving yards (242) this season, so he's a must-start fantasy option against the Carolina Panthers in Week 5. Although Carolina has surrendered the eighth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends through four weeks, the rookie from Iowa has proven he has upside in all matchups. […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Has Low Floor Against Panthers

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs saw workhorse usage against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 3, but that was in the absence of David Montgomery (thigh). Montgomery returned in Week 4 and immediately took over the backfield, rushing 32 times for 121 yards and three touchdowns. Gibbs handled just 12 touches for 51 yards. The […]

David Montgomery A Must-Start In Week 5

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery returned to action from a thigh injury in Week 4 and rushed 32 times for 121 yards and three touchdowns. He won matchups for fantasy managers and is set to face a struggling Carolina Panthers' defense in Week 5. Carolina has surrendered the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs […]

Jared Goff A Fringe QB1 Against Panthers

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has thrown for 1,029 yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions through four weeks of game action. The 28-year-old is leading one of the best offenses in the NFL, but since he rarely adds rushing stats to his fantasy production, his floor is never truly safe. That said, he's set to […]

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5: Jakobi Meyers, AJ Dillon, Jared Goff

With the Week 5 slate of the NFL season on the horizon, it's time for fantasy managers to decide between flex or streaming options in their starting lineups. Jakobi Meyers, AJ Dillon, and Jared Goff are all hot names ahead of Sunday and Monday games. Meyers has posted solid outings when Jimmy Garoppolo is active, […]

Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 5: Jahmyr Gibbs, Nico Collins, Adam Thielen

The Week 5 NFL slate is right around the corner, meaning it's time for fantasy managers to make tough, last-minute start 'em, sit 'em decisions. Jahmyr Gibbs, Nico Collins, and Adam Thielen are all hot names ahead of Sunday's games. Gibbs finds himself behind David Montgomery again, Collins boomed in Week 4 after a quiet […]
