Titans Discussing Ryan Tannehill Contract Extension

The Tennessee Titans are reportedly discussing a contract extension for quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Since taking over for Marcus Mariota as the team's starting passer in Week 7, Tannehill has been putting up solid numbers, with 12 touchdown passes and three interceptions while completing 71.9 percent of his passes. He's also rushed for three scores. Tannehill […]

Todd Gurley Expected To See Full Workload To Close Season

The Los Angeles Rams plan to unleash running back Todd Gurley over the last four weeks of the season, giving him a full workload as the team tries to bolster their chances of making the postseason. Gurley's played two games this year with a snap rate of 90 percent or better, though his yardage and […]

Chris Conley Remains Solid, Low-Upside Option

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley has been incredibly consistent over the past three games, so if you need a fantasy wide receiver who'll catch four passes for 50 yards, Conley's the guy for you. He doesn't have tremendous upside and has just two touchdown receptions on the year, but his current role with the […]

D.J. Chark Should Trend Up After Quarterback Change

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark has seen his role in the Jaguars offense fade some lately, but with rookie Gardner Minshew back at quarterback, Chark's in a good spot to get back to the level he was at early in the season. Chark averages more yards per reception with Minshew at quarterback and caught […]

Dede Westbrook Is Boring Option In Week 14

Don't let his touchdown reception last week fool you; Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook has had limited upside all season and while he's unlikely to bottom out like he did in Gardner Minshew's first game as quarterback for the Jags, he's not a great option in Minshew's return to the starting role. Westbrook's targets […]

Leonard Fournette Is Strong Option Against Chargers

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette should be in line for a solid performance in Sunday's meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers allow the ninth-most PPR points to opposing running backs, and while in years past that PPR part of the equation wouldn't mean much to Fournette, he's been targeted 23 times in […]

Gardner Minshew Faces Tough Matchup In Week 14

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew is the starter again, but his first start since reclaiming that role comes in a bad situation. The Jags play the Chargers, who've allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing passers this season. The safest bet for you in a season-long fantasy league is to do what you can to […]

Darren Fells Is Touchdown Dependent Option, Again

Houston Texans tight end Darren Fells caught another touchdown last week. He also finished with two catches for 23 yards, his fourth game in a row with two or fewer catches. It's clear that Fells has a very defined role in this offense: quarterback Deshaun Watson will look for him near the goal line or […]

Kenny Stills Remains A Risky Fantasy Option

Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills caught his first touchdown since Week 1 in last week's meeting with New England, but his inconsistent role means you're unlikely to get much out of him in Week 14 against Denver. If Will Fuller (hamstring) misses the game, Stills has value, but it's worth noting that Stills has […]

Will Fuller Is Risky Play In Week 14

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) isn't even a guarantee to suit up against Denver in Week 14, but if he does, he faces a Broncos Defense that's allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. Fuller played 75 percent of Houston's snaps last week, but had just one catch for eight yards. […]

DeAndre Hopkins Faces Difficult Test

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins faces a tough one on Sunday, as Houston faces a Broncos team that allows the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. Add in that Hopkins has been targeted eight times in each of the last two games after a five-game stretch with double-digit targets and you […]

Duke Johnson's Role Should Expand In Week 14

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson saw his most targets and tied for his most carries of the season against the Patriots in Week 13 while playing a season-high 67 percent of offensive snaps, a sign that the pass-catching back might be moving towards a larger role in this offense. That gives him some intriguing […]

Carlos Hyde Could Be In Trouble Against Denver

Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde is coming his worst performance of the season, a 10-carry, 17-yard outing against a strong Patriots Defense. Now, he's about to face a Broncos Defense that's allowing the eighth-fewest yards per carry to opposing running backs, which is bad news for Hyde, who's shown a tendency to struggle at […]

Deshaun Watson Still A QB1 Despite Bad Matchup

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is currently the fantasy QB4, and while his opponent this Sunday -- the Denver Broncos -- are allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing passers this season, you've still got to trust Watson and deploy him as your starting fantasy quarterback. He's coming off a strong performance against New England's […]

The Tape Tells All - Derrius Guice Fantasy Outlook

Welcome to another edition of "The Tape Tells All," where I break down some film of an NFL's player performance and try to draw some fantasy football conclusions from that film. This week, I'm looking at Washington running back Derrius Guice, who's finally healthy and finally getting a chance to show why people were so […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 14

It's fantasy football playoff time! While most people have their receiving corps set by now, injuries or ineffectiveness can strike at any point in the year, so sometimes it's good to be proactive when trying to find guys who can help you during these upcoming fantasy playoffs. With that said, let's look at some wide […]

Darren Fells Catches Touchdown In Week 13

Houston Texans tight end Darren Fells caught another touchdown in Week 13, continuing his trend of finding the end zone despite his low overall volume. Fells caught two passes for 23 yards in this one, and in 12 games he's now caught two or fewer passes nine times. But Fells has had a nose for […]

Kenny Stills Catches Touchdown Against Pats

Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills caught three passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the New England Patriots. His four targets were double that of Houston's usual No. 2 receiver, Will Fuller, though it's hard to imagine that being a trend that continues. Stills should still be treated as a […]

Carlos Hyde Has Rough Outing

Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde just couldn't do anything on Sunday against the Patriots, producing just 17 rushing yards on 10 carries. Hyde also added a five-yard reception. New England's got a great rushing defense, so we weren't expecting much from Hyde anyways, but his numbers still somehow fell below those already low expectations. […]

Duke Johnson Grabs Receiving Touchdown

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson had five catches for 54 yards and a score in Sunday's win over the New England Patriots. He also had nine carries for a team-high 36 rushing yards. Houston couldn't find room on the ground, but moved the ball at will through the air, which benefited Johnson. He's still […]

Will Fuller Has Touchdown Called Back

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller had a 35-yard touchdown called back after the ball came out on his third step in Sunday night's win over the New England Patriots. With that score erased, Fuller's final line was dismal for fantasy owners who hoped he'd be able to continue his recent high level of play, […]

D.J. Chark Mostly Held In Check

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark didn't catch a pass in the first half of Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but he did manage to grab two passes for 47 yards in the second half once the Jags replaced Nick Foles with Gardner Minshew. Chark's best success this year has come with Minshew […]

Another Decent Day For Chris Conley

In what's becoming a familiar story, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley had four catches for 57 yards in Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay. It was the third game in a row where Conley's finished with somewhere between 49 and 58 yards, and he's looking more and more like the kind of receiver who's able […]

Dede Westbrook Catches Touchdown In Week 13

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook had five catches for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was targeted eight times. Westbrook is starting to re-assert himself as Jacksonville's number-one receiver, and with Gardner Minshew likely taking back over at quarterback and boosting this offense, Westbrook is back […]

Leonard Fournette Catches Nine Passes

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette struggled to get things going on the ground in Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay, but his passing-game involvement helped him to a solid fantasy day. Fournette's 14 carries resulted in just 38 yards, but he added nine catches on a team-high 11 targets to finish with 53 receiving yards. […]

Gardner Minshew Throws Touchdown In Relief

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew replaced starter Nick Foles at the half after Foles got off to a rough start. In the half, Minshew was 16-for-27 for 147 yards, a touchdown, and an interception. He also added eight rushing yards on two carries. It was a fine half for Minshew, though the Buccaneers Defense has […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. (SG/SF, DAL) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In All Leagues OWNED IN: 39% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Dallas Mavericks are the NBA's biggest surprise, and one of the biggest surprises in Dallas has been the emergence of Tim Hardaway Jr. as the team's third best player. Is that sustainable? Probably not. Is he worth a roster spot for now […]

Kyler Murray Will Start Against Rams

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) will start on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Murray's fantasy numbers have been strong during his rookie campaign and over the last few games he's been increasing his efficiency in the passing game while running less, so the impact of a hamstring issue on his foot speed shouldn't […]
