Broncos Defense Nowhere Near The Fantasy Radar In Week 6

We shouldn't have to tell you this, but a Denver Broncos defense that allowed an eye-opening 70 points to the Miami Dolphins in Week 3 shouldn't be started in their Week 6 Thursday night matchup against the defending Super Bowl-champion Kansas City Chiefs. Despite that embarrassment and the fact they're allowing a league-high 36.2 points […]

Wil Lutz Not A Recommended Kicking Option Versus KC

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz checks in tied for 14th in terms of overall fantasy points at his position through the first five weeks of the season on the back of eight made field goals on nine attempts while going 11 for 12 on his extra-point tries. He hasn't missed a kick since missing a […]

Stay Away From Adam Trautman In Week 6

Denver Broncos tight end Adam Trautman may have scored his first touchdown of the year in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, but he did it on just four receptions for 26 yards. And we certainly can't ignore the fact that he didn't have a single catch on just four targets in […]

Marvin Mims Jr. A Deep-League Dart Throw Against Chiefs

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. showed his floor in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets last Sunday, catching his only target for a four-yard pickup. Mims may be leading the Broncos with 246 receiving yards and 24.6 yards per reception in the first five games of his NFL career, […]

Jerry Jeudy Looking For First Statement Game

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy missed the season opener with a hamstring injury and has really flown under the radar in four games so far in 2023. He's done nothing to stand out, catching 17 of 24 targets for 208 yards (12.2 yards per catch) and no touchdowns. However, Jeudy did catch a season-high […]

Courtland Sutton Looking For Bounce-Back Performance

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had by far his worst game in the first five weeks in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, catching just one pass on three targets for 13 yards. This came after Sutton had found the end zone three times in the first four games of 2023 […]

Jaleel McLaughlin Will Face More Competition For Touches

Denver Broncos undrafted rookie running back Jaleel McLaughlin was a popular waiver-wire pickup last week after Javonte Williams (quadriceps) was hurt in Week 4. Williams didn't play in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, while McLaughlin led the backfield with nine carries for 68 yards while catching three passes for 21 yards […]

Russell Wilson A QB1 Streamer In Thursday Night Matchup

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson didn't have a very great game in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, but he has still been a top-10 fantasy QB in terms of overall points through the first five games of 2023. New head coach Sean Payton has definitely had a positive impact on the […]

Demario Douglas Held Out Of Practice

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Demario Douglas (concussion) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Douglas suffered a concussion in the 34-0 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 5 and is now iffy for the Week 6 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, along with fellow wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster […]

Jonnu Smith Dealing With Ankle Injury

Atlanta Falcons tight end Jonnu Smith (ankle) finds himself on the Week 6 injury report with an ankle injury that kept him limited in practice on Wednesday. Smith's status is worth watching as Atlanta heads into a Week 6 tilt against the Washington Commanders at home on Sunday, but as long as he doesn't suffer […]

Keaontay Ingram Listed As Limited In Practice

Arizona Cardinals running back Keaontay Ingram (neck) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice after he missed the last two games with a neck injury. Ingram's status is suddenly more of a story after the Cardinals placed James Conner (knee) on Injured Reserve this week. Rookie Emari Demercado took over lead-back duties after […]

Marquise Brown Out Sick Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) did not practice on Wednesday due to an illness. We'd be surprised if Brown actually misses the Week 6 contest against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams this Sunday, but it would be nice to see him return to practice on Thursday or Friday. The 26-year-old has been quarterback […]

Geno Smith Looks Ready To Roll

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (knee) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Smith tweaked his knee in the Week 4 win over the New York Giants but he had the bye week to heal up. Head coach Pete Carroll said earlier this week that Smith's knee is "fine," so he's fully expected to […]

DK Metcalf's Rib Injury Not Very Serious

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs), who missed another practice on Wednesday, said it "hasn't been" hard playing through a rib injury he suffered in Week 2. Metcalf has missed some practice time since then, but he said the Seahawks have helped him manage the issue to the point where he doesn't think about […]

Robert Woods Misses Wednesday's Practice

Houston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods (ribs) was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice. Woods had to briefly leave the Week 5 loss to the Atlanta Falcons with a rib injury but he eventually returned to finish the game. The Texans are most likely giving the 31-year-old a little bit of extra rest before […]

Mike Evans Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. It's not what fantasy managers want to see from Evans coming off a bye week after he was injured in the Week 4 win over the New Orleans Saints. Evans still has a couple more days to get on the practice field, […]

Juwan Johnson Still Not On The Practice Field

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (calf) remained a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. Johnson lasted played in Week 3 and appears to be in danger of missing his third straight game this weekend against the Houston Texans unless he's able to return to practice in the next two days. The 27-year-old remains on […]

Derek Carr Practicing In Full

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Carr suffered an AC joint sprain in his right throwing shoulder in Week 3 but surprisingly played the very next week in a win over the Carolina Panthers. A full practice early in the week is a good sign that […]

Enrique Hernandez Starting In Center Field For Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez is getting the nod in center field over James Outman on Wednesday in Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks and rookie right-hander Brandon Pfaadt. Hernandez will hit seventh in the batting order. It will be the 32-year-old veteran's first start of this postseason […]

Evan Longoria Back In Lineup For Game 3

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Evan Longoria (hand) is back at third base and is batting eighth on Wednesday against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers for Game 3 of the National League Division Series. Longoria was removed for a pinch-runner in the ninth inning in Game 2 on Monday after being hit by a pitch on […]

Michael Brantley, Chas McCormick Back In The Lineup For Game 4

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley is back in left field and is hitting sixth in the batting order on Wednesday for Game 4 of the American League Division Series against the Minnesota Twins and right-hander Joe Ryan. Chas McCormick has returned to center field and is in the seven-hole. Brantley has gone 2-for-7 with a […]

Chris Olave On The Week 6 Injury Report

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (toe) is on the Week 6 injury report after putting in a limited practice on Wednesday. Olave apparently entered the Week 5 blowout win over the New England Patriots with a toe injury, and it could help explain why he has just three receptions on 11 targets for […]

Vikings Don't View Justin Jefferson's Injury As Season-Ending

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said he doesn't view wide receiver Justin Jefferson's (hamstring) injury as a season-long injury. O'Connell didn't specify the specific grade of the right-hamstring injury but said it was severe enough to place him on Injured Reserve, which will keep Jefferson sidelined for at least the next four games. If […]

Jakobi Meyers Dealing With Wrist Injury

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (wrist) was limited in practice on Wednesday with a wrist injury on the estimated report since the Raiders didn't actually practice following their Monday night win over the Green Bay Packers. Meyers was the team's leading receiver in that game, catching seven of his 10 targets for 75 […]

Davante Adams Listed As DNP Wednesday

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's estimated practice report. Adams suffered a painful shoulder injury in Week 4 and was questionable for the Week 5 Monday night win over the Green Bay Packers, but he ended up playing through it and caught just four passes for […]

Greg Dulcich Questionable For Thursday Night

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) was listed as questionable for the Week 6 game on Thursday night against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Dulcich returned to practice on a limited basis on Tuesday for the first time since being placed on Injured Reserve before the Week 2 game. He was upgraded to a […]

Javonte Williams Will Play In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (quadriceps) practiced in full on Tuesday and Wednesday and has been removed from the Week 6 injury report. After missing the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets last Sunday, Williams will be back to face the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday Night Football. The 23-year-old has […]

Charles Cross Back At Practice Again Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks left tackle Charles Cross (toe), who hasn't played since spraining his toe in the season opener in Week 1, will practice again on Wednesday. The Seahawks are also getting right guard Phil Haynes (calf) back at practice, although left guard Damien Lewis (ankle) isn't practicing. Haynes and Lewis were injured in Week 4 […]

Andrew Thomas Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas (hamstring) will not participate in practice on Wednesday. Thomas could be looking at missing his fifth straight game on Sunday night against the Buffalo Bills if he's unable to return to the practice field later this week. The league's second-highest paid tackle was taken fourth overall in the […]

Saquon Barkley Starts Off Week With Limited Practice

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Barkley once again had his right ankle heavily taped while dealing with a high-ankle sprain that he suffered back in Week 3. The 26-year-old hasn't played since but is looking to make his return on Sunday Night Football […]
