Jerry Jeudy Leads Broncos In Receiving Against Raiders

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy bounced back from his donut in Week 15 to lead the Broncos with 60 receiving yards in the 17-13 Week 16 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Jeudy caught three of his four targets on the day, but most of his yardage came on a 40-yard pass in which […]

Allen Robinson II Returning From COVID-19 List

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II, tight end Jesse James, cornerback Jaylon Johnson, running back Ryan Nall and safety Tashaun Gipson are set to be activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list. The Bears should have all of these players back for their Week 17 matchup against the New York Giants. Robinson has missed the last […]

Melvin Gordon III Has A Day To Forget In Week 16

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III won't want to watch the tape of his Week 16 performance against the Las Vegas Raiders. On seven carries (the same as Javonte Williams), he managed minus-four yards rushing while catching his only target in the passing game for a four-yard gain. The Raiders sold out to stop […]

Javonte Williams Salvages His Day With A Touchdown

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams and the Denver rushing attack went absolutely nowhere in the 17-13 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 16. The impressive rookie handled seven carries (the same as Melvin Gordon) and mustered just 12 yards (1.7 yards per carry), but he saved his fantasy day by finding […]

Drew Lock Falls Flat Against Raiders

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock didn't turn the ball over in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders, but that was about his only positive in a disappointing 17-13 loss on Sunday. Lock went 15-for-22 for 153 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, and he ran twice for 10 yards. With the Raiders selling out […]

Brandon Allen Lands On COVID-19 List

Cincinnati Bengals backup quarterback Brandon Allen was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. The obvious concern here is for starter Joe Burrow, who threw for a franchise-record 525 passing yards in the Week 16 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. Burrow and Allen are the team's only QBs on the active roster, with Jake […]

Anthony Averett Fractures A Rib Sunday

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Anthony Averett (rib), who is one of the team's few available and capable starters in the secondary, suffered a fractured rib in the Week 16 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, according to a source.

Brian Burns Tests Positive For COVID-19

Carolina Panthers Pro Bowl defensive end Brian Burns has tested positive for COVID-19, according to a source. Head coach Matt Rhule said that the team has a "somewhat significant" number of positive COVID tests on Monday, so we should be expecting more Panthers names to be added to the Reserve/COVID-19 list in the coming days. […]

Shaq Barrett Has Sprained MCL And ACL

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that pass-rusher Shaq Barrett (knee) has a sprained MCL and ACL and will miss the next two games, but the team is hoping that he'll be back for the playoffs. Combined with the injury to Lavonte David, the Tampa defense will be missing two of their star […]

Panthers Dealing With COVID-19 Outbreak

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said on Monday that the team has had a "somewhat significant" outbreak of positive COVID-19 tests. Everybody has been sent home and Rhule hopes they will be able to resume preparation for Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday. The Panthers appear to be the latest NFL […]

Dan Campbell To Finish The Season As The Play-Caller

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that he will continue to call the offensive plays for the final two games of the regular season. Detroit's offense has looked better since Campbell took over the play-calling duties with more input from offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. "Definitely, I feel like every week I've gotten a lot […]

Is Myles Gaskin The Dolphins Starting RB? Should Duke Johnson Be Started?

Week 16 is nearly over, but if your fantasy playoff matchup hinges on a performance in Monday night's game between the Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints, you've come to the right place. The Saints offense is likely to struggle against an aggressive Dolphins defense with rookie quarterback Ian Book making his first career NFL […]

Ernest Jones Considered Week-To-Week With Ankle Sprain

Los Angeles Rams rookie linebacker Ernest Jones (ankle) is believed to have suffered the dreaded high ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Minnesota Vikings, according to a source, and he's considered week-to-week with a chance to return for the playoffs. Jones, a third-round pick in the draft, emerged as a starter midway through the […]

Jordan Howard Questionable To Return Against Giants

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard is questionable to return on Sunday against the New York Giants after suffering a stinger. Before leaving late in the second half, Howard had a team-high nine carries for 37 yards (4.1 yards per carry) and hauled in two of his four targets for an additional 19 yards in […]

Stephon Gilmore Injured In Week 16

Carolina Panthers cornerback Stephon Gilmore (groin) has been ruled out in the Week 16 game with a groin injury. Gilmore had been matched up with Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown for much of the day, but he recorded only three tackles before leaving late in the second half. In nine games with the […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Injures Knee, Ruled Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings with a knee injury.

Shaq Barrett Ruled Out With Knee Injury

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Shaq Barrett (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of the Week 16 game against the Carolina Panthers. Barrett was initially injured in the second quarter, but he returned to the game before finally being shut down for good. The 29-year-old entered the Week 16 contest with 47 tackles (35 […]

Darren Waller Officially Inactive Against Broncos

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (back, knee) is officially inactive in Week 16 against the Denver Broncos. Waller hasn't practiced or played since getting injured on Thanksgiving Day and was doubtful coming into this one, so fantasy managers should've already had Waller firmly planted on their benches. Backup Foster Moreau had his best […]

Alex Collins A Healthy Scratch Against Bears

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins is a healthy scratch for the Week 16 game against the Chicago Bears. Collins missed last week while on the COVID-19 list, and now he's the odd man out in this mediocre Seattle backfield. Rashaad Penny has been the team's leading ball-carrier in the last two weeks, and that […]

Adam Thielen Returns Against Rams

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams after aggravating his ankle injury in the first half. Thielen missed the previous two weeks due to a high ankle sprain and was pretty upset when he limped off the field in the second quarter, but he is […]

Miles Sanders Ruled Out For The Rest Of The Day

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hand) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the New York Giants due to a hand injury. It's a tough break for Sanders' fantasy managers, as he had 6.4 yards per carry on seven rushing attempts for 45 yards before leaving the game. He also […]

Allen Robinson II Still Out, Marquise Goodwin Returning

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II will remain out of action in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks since he's still on the COVID-19 list. However, Marquise Goodwin (foot) is active on Sunday for the first time since he was injured in the Thanksgiving Day game. Jakeem Grant Sr. (concussion) was ruled out, so […]

Justin Fields Inactive On Sunday

Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Justin Fields (ankle) is officially inactive in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks.

Andy Dalton (groin) is also inactive after just returning from the […]

Jaguars Interested In Byron Leftwich As Next Head Coach

The Jacksonville Jaguars are interested in several candidates to fill their head-coaching vacancy heading into next season. Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich could be the ideal candidate to help mold young quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Along with Leftwich, the Jags are interested in interviewing former head coaches Jim Caldwell and Doug Pederson. Leftwich was […]

Adam Thielen Questionable To Return Sunday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams after aggravating his ankle injury. Thielen was injured after catching a pass and looked pretty upset as he limped off the field under his own power. Considering that Thielen missed the previous two games with a […]

Mike Evans Has A Chance To Return Before Playoffs

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring), who is out in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers, has a chance to return in the regular season, according to a source. Evans' hamstring injury isn't considered too serious and he was listed as week-to-week earlier in the week, so there's a chance that he could […]

Dak Prescott Working To Get Back On Track

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hasn't been very good since he returned from a calf injury, but he's been spending extra time working with his receivers in recent weeks to get the Dallas offense back on track heading into the postseason. Prescott and his receivers have put in extra time outside of practice on specific […]

Not Much Optimism For Curtis Samuel

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring), who is a game-time decision for Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys, doesn't look likely to play in Week 16. Samuel sat out in Week 15 and is on the wrong side of questionable heading into the Sunday night game. Fantasy managers shouldn't have been considering Samuel […]

Bryan Edwards, Marcus Mariota Placed On COVID-19 List

The Las Vegas Raiders placed wide receiver Bryan Edwards and quarterback Marcus Mariota on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Sunday, which means they will be inactive for Week 16 against the Denver Broncos.
