Jeff Wilson Jr., Elijah Mitchell Active, Trey Sermon Inactive

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (knee) will make his season debut on Sunday, while rookie Elijah Mitchell (ribs) will also play. With those two players active, rookie Trey Sermon will be a healthy scratch. It's unclear how the Niners will handle the Wilson/Mitchell split, but the fact that Sermon is inactive suggests […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Active For Week 9

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, but with quarterback Jordan Love throwing the ball to him and Davante Adams and Allen Lazard also competing for touches, don't expect a ton of production from MVS in his return from Injured Reserve. The Packers will likely rely […]

Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins Out For Week 9

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) are both out for Sunday's meeting with the 49ers. Colt McCoy will start at quarterback, but hopefully Murray's fantasy managers planned ahead, because McCoy against the 49ers defense isn't someone you want in your starting lineup. As for the receiver position, A.J. Green […]

Ezekiel Elliott Back In Against Broncos

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) left Sunday's game against the Broncos and was declared questionable to return, but the star running back has already re-entered the game with the Cowboys trailing by three scores. The team used Tony Pollard on the kick return before the drive began, another sign that Elliott's knee injury […]

Two Broncos Linemen Out, Albert Okwuegbunam Questionable

Denver Broncos guard Graham Glasgow (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cowboys with what appeared to be a serious ankle/knee injury. Right tackle Bobby Massie (ankle) is out as well. Tight end Albert Okwuegbunam (knee) is also questionable to return to the contest. Okwuegbunam had four catches for […]

Ezekiel Elliott Questionable To Return In Week 9

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Broncos with a right knee contusion. Elliott has six carries for 27 yards and two receptions for 21 yards so far in Sunday's game. If he's unable to return, Tony Pollard will serve as the lead back for the […]

Trevor Lawrence Returns To Game

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Bills after briefly heading to the locker room. Keep an eye on Lawrence to make sure the ankle doesn't act up in the second half, but it looks like the No. 1 overall pick is good to go for the Jags under […]

Trevor Lawrence Questionable To Return In Week 9

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills. He exited during the second quarter and was helped to the locker room. Lawrence is currently 11-for-15 for 80 yards with two rushing yards as well. Jacksonville's offense has struggled to move the ball during Lawrence's rookie year. If […]

Panthers Center Matt Paradis Ruled Out

Carolina Panthers center Matt Paradis (knee) was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the New England Patriots and was quickly ruled out. Sam Tecklenburg is second on the depth chart at center for the team. Considering how fast Paradis was ruled out, this doesn't look good in terms of his availability going forward […]

James Robinson Out For Week 9

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel) is out for Sunday's game against the Bills. Expect to see Carlos Hyde serve as the lead back, with Dare Ogunbowale mixed in as well. Neither player is worth playing in most fantasy leagues, though Hyde's projected volume could make him a flex play in a 14-team league […]

Sammy Watkins Out For Week 9

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Sammy Watkins (thigh) remains out for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, but the Ravens are hopeful he can return to play next Thursday in Week 10. He last played in Week 5, registering two receptions before leaving. When healthy, Watkins is averaging four receptions per game, but the emergence of Rashod […]

The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series championship race is here. Four drivers have a chance to win a title. Unfortunately for fantasy players, there's qualifying, so we won't know anything about place differential at publish time, which definitely is not great, but hey -- it'll make the real-life race more exciting.

Buccaneers Defense Will Have Richard Sherman, Lavonte David

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David (ankle) and cornerback Richard Sherman (hamstring) will play on Sunday against the Saints. The Buccaneers defense has struggled against the pass but has mostly been strong against the run all season. Sherman could breathe some life into the passing defense, but don't let that keep you from using Jameis […]

Ke'Shawn Vaughn A Healthy Scratch In Week 8

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Saints. Last week was the first time Vaughn had seen offensive snaps this year, as he was on the field for eight plays and got his first five carries of the season. There's no fantasy value for Vaughn in […]

Deonte Harris Active For Week 8

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Harris didn't play last week, but has been a decent player when healthy, with three games with at least 50 receiving yards, including his one-catch, 72-yard touchdown showing in Week 5 before he exited the game. There's […]

Calvin Ridley Stepping Away From Football

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley was inactive on Sunday for personal reasons, but he put out an announcement on Twitter on Sunday afternoon to say that he is going to "step away from football at this time." Ridley added he is going to "focus on [his] mental well-being." It's unclear how long Ridley will […]

Austin Ekeler Active, Joshua Kelley Out

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hip) is active for Sunday's contest against the Patriots, while Joshua Kelley is a healthy scratch. With Ekeler active for the Chargers on the real football field, he should be active for fantasy managers in all formats because of his immense upside. Consider him a high-end RB1 as […]

Alex Collins Active For Week 8

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins (groin) is active for the team's Week 8 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. After carrying the ball 16 times last week while banged up, it should be expected that Collins will see the bulk of the work this week over Rashaad Penny, making him an RB2 option against a […]

Tutu Atwell Questionable To Return

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. The rookie has mainly served as a kick returner this season, with just 10 offensive snaps all year, so there's not much fantasy impact to an Atwell injury, unless you're in a league with kick return […]

Chris Boswell Out With Concussion

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Browns. Punter Pressley Harvin will serve as the kicker for the rest of the game, but don't expect to see the team kick very much, if at all. The team has already chosen to go for two […]

Rob Gronkowski Will Play Against Saints

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (ribs) will be active for Sunday's meeting with the New Orleans Saints after missing the past four games. Gronkowski was looking like his old self earlier in the season, with four touchdowns over the first two weeks of the season. It's unclear if Gronk will get a full […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Active, J.J. Taylor Inactive

The New England Patriots continue to play musical chairs with the team's running backs, as Rhamondre Stevenson is active for Week 8 while J.J. Taylor is a healthy scratch despite scoring a pair of touchdowns last week. It appears that New England is just going to continue to decide on game day who out of […]

Chris Boswell Questionable To Return

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell is being evaluated for a concussion after taking a hit on a fake field goal. If Boswell is unable to return, punter Pressley Harvin will take over kicking duties, but expect the Steelers to look to free agency for a Boswell replacement if he is concussed and has to miss […]

Jalen Reagor Out, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Questionable

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, while wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (ankle) is questionable to return. The Eagles won't have a lot of weapons at receiver, so expect to see a little more of Quez Watkins and Greg Ward, but also don't be shocked to […]

Broncos Defense Won't Have Von Miller In Week 8

Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller (ankle) won't play against the Washington Football Team on Sunday. Miller suffered the ankle injury last week and wanted to play in Week 8, but the team's medical staff decided to keep Miller off the field to be safe. Miller has 4.5 sacks and nine quarterback hits this season. His […]

Damien Williams Questionable To Return Against 49ers

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers. Williams opened the year as the backup for David Montgomery and now is serving as the backup for rookie Khalil Herbert. Williams had two carries for a loss of three yards before exiting on Sunday. If he's unable […]
