Stephon Gilmore Heading To Locker Room

New England Patriots defensive back Stephon Gilmore (knee) was helped to the locker room after going down with a non-contact leg injury during Sunday's game against the Dolphins. One of the best defensive backs in the NFL, Gilmore's absence could open up opportunities for a Dolphins offense that has struggled so far in their Week […]

Collin Johnson Questionable To Return

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Collin Johnson (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Johnson had the only reception for the Jaguars at the time he exited, an eight-yard first-quarter reception. If he's unable to return, D.J. Chark Jr. and Laviska Shenault Jr. could see an additional target or two each, […]

James White Active for Week 15

New England Patriots running back James White (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins. With Damien Harris (foot) out, White should see increased work, as he'll be competing with Sony Michel and J.J. Taylor for touches. White has just seven catches in the last three games and eight carries, so the low […]

Salvon Ahmed Active For Week 15

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. With a lot of skill position players out, expect Ahmed to play a major role in this one. Even against a tough defense, Ahmed will get enough opportunities to make him a low-end RB2 option with a solid […]

Mark Ingram II Out For Week 15

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Considering Ingram didn't have a carry last week and played just one offensive snap, this doesn't really change anything from a fantasy perspective. J.K. Dobbins will serve as the lead back against a Jaguars Defense that has struggled. […]

Jameis Winston Placed On COVID-19 List

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston was placed on the COVID-19 list Sunday, which will keep him out of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Winston was expected to serve as the backup quarterback to Drew Brees, but it looks like Taysom Hill will wind up in that role. It's unclear yet if this […]

Antonio Gibson Officially Out Against Seattle

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is officially inactive for Sunday's meeting with the Seattle Seahawks. Gibson was listed as doubtful coming into the game, so this isn't much of a surprise. J.D. McKissic will be the lead back on Sunday and should be considered a mid-tier RB2 play, though he lacks the […]

Matthew Stafford Active For Week 15

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb, ribs) is officially suiting up for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. There was doubt early in the week about this, but Stafford trended up as game day approached and is good to go against a porous Titans passing defense. The injury concerns are here, but Stafford should be […]

Ezekiel Elliott Inactive For Week 15

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Elliott has never missed a game due to injury, so it's a bit surprising to see that he won't be giving it a go this week. Tony Pollard will slide into the lead back role and is a […]

Dolphins Won't Have DeVante Parker, Mike Gesicki, Jakeem Grant

Yikes. The Miami Dolphins will reportedly be without three of their top pass-catchers when they take on New England on Sunday, with wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) and tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) both reportedly out despite hopes they'd be able to play. Wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) is out as well. With that […]

Jalen Hurts Expected To Start Rest Of 2020

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to be the starting quarterback in Philly for the rest of the 2020 season. Hurts is a dual-threat player who made a major impact on the ground in his first NFL start, rushing for 106 yards. His presence helps negate some of the offensive line issues that […]

Kyle Pitts Declares For NFL Draft

Florida tight end Kyle Pitts has declared for the 2021 NFL Draft. In eight games this season, Pitts had 36 receptions for 641 yards and 11 touchdowns. He's an elite tight end prospect who would instantly shift the fantasy landscape at the position depending on his landing spot in April. His big-play potential makes him […]

Robert Tonyan Catches Touchdown In Week 15

Green Bay Packers tight end Robert Tonyan caught three passes for 18 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's win over the Carolina Panthers. He now has 10 touchdown catches on the season. Tonyan hasn't been consistently producing yardage, but his ability to find the end zone has kept him on the fantasy radar week after […]

Davante Adams Quiet Against Panthers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams had seven receptions in Saturday's win over the Carolina Panthers but finished with just 42 yards and no receptions. It was the second-lowest yardage output of the season for Adams and his first time since Week 6 to not catch a touchdown. It was a letdown for fantasy […]

Aaron Jones Has Huge Saturday Night

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones saw 20 of the 22 carries by Green Bay running backs in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers. With those carries, Jones had 145 yards and a touchdown. He also added three catches for 13 yards. It was a huge night for Jones, who saw his most rushing […]

Aaron Rodgers Rushes For Score Against Panthers

It was a bit of a quiet night statistically for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Saturday's win over the Carolina Panthers, as he threw for just 143 yards and a touchdown on 20-for-29 passing. Rodgers did add five carries for 26 yards and a score as well. The veteran continues to battle with […]

Second-Year Breakouts for Fantasy Basketball

After a long, long 2019-2020 NBA season, we're moving ahead to a fresh NBA campaign. Rookie years are tough. Some players do well. Some don't. What can be crucial for the futures of many of those players, though, is what they do the next season. Do they start to show in their second season why […]

The Grass Isn't Greener: NBA Free Agency Fallers

Free agency can be a great opportunity for players to find new homes that mesh with their playing styles and help them achieve their potential. But it can also be a chance for players to think they're doing that and then wind up in a bad situation where they're unable to find NBA success. This […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 15

The fantasy playoffs are in full swing, so you know what that means: there's no need at this point to pick anyone up off waivers who can't tangibly help you in the short term. We're past the speculative additions part of the season. This means that this week's waiver column would be a little shorter […]

Deebo Samuel Doesn't Return In Week 14

After suffering a hamstring injury on the opening drive, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel has been ruled out for the remainder of the team's Week 14 game against Washington. Brandon Aiyuk has been the only receiver with more than one reception so far in today's game and would be the only receiver on […]

Keke Coutee Has Week 14 Touchdown

Houston Texans wide receiver didn't post the huge yardage numbers some expected, but a second quarter touchdown helped salvage his Week 14 from a fantasy perspective. Coutee ended up with three catches for 24 yards and the aforementioned touchdown, while it was Chad Hansen who saw the most work among the team's receivers. Coutee does […]

Alex Smith Questionable To Return In Week 14

Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers with a leg injury. Smith was 8-for-19 for 57 yards and an interception in the first half. Considering Smith's history with leg injuries, don't be surprised to see Smith not return. Dwayne Haskins Jr. is currently in […]

Chad Hansen Leads Texans In Receiving

With injuries all over their receiving corps, Houston Texans wide receiver Chad Hansen wound up leading the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears. Hansen caught all seven of his target for 56 yards. Hansen has some deep-league appeal should he once again be asked to be the […]

Duke Johnson Quiet In Run Game Against Bears

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson took a backseat to Buddy Howell in the run game on Sunday, with eight carries for 26 yards. While he added 53 receiving yards on two catches, it was still a disappointing game for Johnson, who was expected to see a full workload with David Johnson (COVID list) out. […]

Buddy Howell Leads Texans In Rushing

With David Johnson on the COVID list, Houston Texans running back Buddy Howell was the surprise leading back in Sunday's blowout loss to the Chicago Bears. Howell rushed 11 times for 42 yards, plus added a three-yard reception. Howell could be in line for similar usage if Johnson misses another game, but with the fantasy […]

Deshaun Watson Tosses Touchdown Against Bears

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for 219 yards and a touchdown in Sunday;s 36-7 loss to the Chicago Bears. He was 21-for-30 throwing the ball and also added 38 rushing yards on seven carries. It was a nightmare game for an injured Texans team, who only managed to score one touchdown during the entire […]

Raheem Mostert Cleared To Return

Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert has been evaluated for a head injury and was cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Washington Football Team. Mostert has six carries already and should operate as the lead back once he's back in, though Jeff Wilson Jr. has a touchdown already […]

Raheem Mostert Heading To Locker Room

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert has gone to the locker room with an apparent injury. It's unclear at this time what the issue is with Mostert, who had six carries for 35 yards when he exited. If he's unable to return, expect Jeff Wilson Jr. is lead this backfield for the remainder of […]
