Mike Williams Officially Active For Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) is active for the Week 6 contest against the Ravens despite missing practice all week with swelling in his knee. Williams has been great this season, with six touchdown receptions, but it's fair to wonder what his workload will look like this week. Managers in season-long leagues […]

T.Y. Hilton Active For Week 6

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (neck) is officially active for Sunday's meeting with the Texans. Things were trending this way after he was activated from the Injured Reserve on Saturday, but now it's official that Hilton will make his 2021 debut. Expect his snaps to be limited, so don't throw him into your lineups […]

Tyreek Hill Active, Lucas Niang Won't Start

Despite not coming out for warmups, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) is active and will play against Washington on Sunday. The Football Team has allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, so fantasy managers in season-long formats should roll Hill out this week, injury and all. He's the most explosive […]

Joe Mixon Active For Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. That ankle injury limited Mixon last week, as he played just 28 percent of the team's snaps and had 33 rushing yards, a season-low. Mixon should see more work this week against Detroit, but he's still likely not […]

The NASCAR Xfinity Series playoffs head to Texas Motor Speedway on Saturday. The Round of 8 begins this weekend.

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Another week of NFL action is behind us. The waiver wire hasn't been kind to us this season – will that change this week? Below, you'll find some wideouts that you should be targeting on the waiver wire ahead of Week 6. Not all options are the same. Some players may be better in PPR […]

Tim Patrick (WR, DEN) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (PPR) ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Jerry Jeudy and K.J. Hamler on the IR, Patrick is locked in as the No. 2 receiver in Denver. He won't hold that role forever, but he's a solid flex option until Jeudy returns. The undrafted receiver out of Utah has hauled in 22-of-28 […]

Jamison Crowder (WR, NYJ) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (PPR) ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Did you wake up early to watch the Jets and the Falcons play in London? I did, for some reason. Crowder's game wasn't impressive, as he caught just four passes for 24 yards, but his six targets were second on the […]

Jon Gruden Resigns As Raiders Coach

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden has informed his staff that he will be resigning as the team's head coach. Gruden signed a 10-year contract with the team in 2018, but his tenure is being cut short after it was revealed over the past few days that Gruden had sent emails that made racist, […]

Quintez Cephus Ruled Out In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's game against the Vikings. Cephus ends the day with three catches for 38 yards. If Cephus misses any time, Amon-Ra St. Brown would likely see a larger role in this offense moving forward, but there's not a lot of upside in fantasy with any […]

Damien Harris Questionable To Return in Week 5

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. Harris has 10 carries for 27 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's game. If Harris is unable to return, Rhamondre Stevenson appears to be the next man up. A preseason sleeper whose rookie year was derailed […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Won't Return Against Broncos

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) will not to return to Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. He was held without a catch, but did add two carries for six yards. With James Washington out as well, the Steelers will turn to Chase Claypool and Diontae Johnson for the remainder of the game, with […]

Taysom Hill Ruled Out With Concussion

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game against the Steelers. Hill had one reception for 11 yards, but went down after a hard hit. Hill does a little bit of everything for the Saints, but with Jameis Winston beating him out for the starting QB role this offseason, Hill's role […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Questionable To Return In Week 5

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. He has no receptions, but does have two carries for six yards. Smith-Schuster was immediately taken back to the locker room, so there's a chance this is a fairly significant injury. With James Washington out, the Steelers […]

Taysom Hill, Deonte Harris Exit Game

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, while quarterback/utilityman Taysom Hill was carted off after a hit to the helmet. Harris had one catch for a 72-yard touchdown before exiting, while Hill had an 11-yard reception. New Orleans is fairly shallow at receiver, so expect […]

Jacoby Brissett Returns To Game

Miami Dolphins quarterback Jacoby Brissett (hamstring) has returned to Sunday's game against Tampa Bay. Brissett winds up not missing any series after initially being announced as questionable to return. Backup quarterback Reid Sennett was set to make his NFL debut and could still see some snaps if Brissett's hamstring issue flares up later in the […]

Jacoby Brissett Questionable To Return

Miami Dolphins quarterback Jacoby Brissett (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Tampa Bay. Brissett started 8-for-10 for 119 yards and a touchdown and had the Dolphins leading when he exited, so if he's unable to return, it would be a big loss for this Miami team. With Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) not active, […]

Darius Slayton, Sterling Shepard Trending Toward Week 6 Return

While New York Giants wide receivers Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Darius Slayton (hamstring) remain out in Week 5 against the Cowboys, both went through pregame workouts and appear to be on track to return next week against the Rams. Kadarius Toney will see a larger role in this week's game, but the return of Shepard […]

Danny Amendola Out For Week 5

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (hamstring) appeared to be on his way towards playing this week, but he'll be inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Chris Moore was elevated to the active roster and could see some extra usage, but there's really no reason to roster any pass-catcher on this offense other than […]

James Washington Out For Week 5

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington (groin) is out for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. Last week with Chase Claypool (hamstring) out, Washington saw more work than usual, with four catches for 69 yards. Claypool's return this week meant that Washington wasn't going to see much work anyway, so this shouldn't impact your fantasy […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Inactive For Week 5

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (hamstring) joins Julio Jones (hamstring) on the inactive list this week. Down two receivers, expect to see a lot of Josh Reynolds in this one. Last week with Jones and A.J. Brown out, Reynolds was targeted nine times, catching six passes for 59 yards. He's an intriguing DFS value […]

J.J. Taylor Inactive For Week 5

New England Patriots running back J.J. Taylor is a healthy scratch ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Texans. Expected to step into a larger role with James White out, Taylor had one carry for zero yards and one catch for zero yards last week. He lost a fumble while playing just four snaps. Brandon Bolden […]

Josh Lambo Inactive

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Titans, with practice squad kicker Matthew Wright taking over kicking duties. Lambo was a disaster through the first three games, going 0-for-3 on field goals and 5-for-7 on extra points before Wright took over last week, knocking in all three extra […]

Courtland Sutton Active For Week 5

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers. This should be the easiest pass defense that the Broncos have faced this season, putting Sutton in decent shape to post some strong numbers. He has 18 catches for 257 yards but has yet to find the endzone this season. […]

Joe Mixon Is Active For Week 5

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is officially active for the team's contest against the Green Bay Packers. While Mixon isn't expected to be at 100 percent, he should still outsnap backup running back Samaje Perine. Still, Mixon's unlikely to see the kind of workload that we usually see from the 25-year-old back, so […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Charlotte Drive For The Cure 250 (10/9/21)

The NASCAR Xfinity Series playoffs head to the Charlotte Roval on Saturday. The Round of 12 concludes with a potentially wild one at Charlotte. Non-playoff drivers have won both races in this round, which means that while Austin Cindric has clinched a spot in the next round, the other 11 drivers are all still competing […]

Russell Wilson Questionable To Return On Thursday

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson (finger) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Rams, with Geno Smith coming in to replace him in the fourth quarter. Wilson was 11-for-16 for 152 yards with a touchdown and an interception before exiting, with two carries for 10 yards. If Wilson is unable to return, Smith […]

Tyler Higbee Questionable To Return Thursday

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (shoulder) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Higbee doesn't have a catch in Thursday's game. Johnny Mundt is the backup tight end in Los Angeles, but don't expect to see much of him in Thursday's game. If Higbee doesn't return, some of his […]
