Latavius Murray A Shaky Starting Option In Week 7

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray surprisingly led the team's backfield in the Week 6 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in his debut with the Broncos when he carried the ball 15 times for 66 yards. He also caught just one pass for minus-two yards. Melvin Gordon III was inexplicably benched after starting […]

Christian McCaffrey Traded To The 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers acquired Pro Bowl running back Christian McCaffrey from the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night in exchange for undisclosed draft picks, according to sources. McCaffrey will return to the Bay Area, where he played at Stanford in college. McCaffrey will take over as the lead back in San Francisco, basically rendering Jeff […]

Melvin Gordon III Hard To Trust Against The Jets

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (neck, ribs) has practiced in full the last few days and should be good to go for a Week 7 matchup against the New York Jets. Gordon started the Week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers but finished with just three carries for eight yards and wasn't […]

Trent Williams Thinks He'll Play In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) thinks he will play in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Williams has returned to practice this week after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 3. The 34-year-old veteran is trending in the right direction, but he's still not a lock to return this Sunday […]

Shaquille Leonard Trending In The Right Direction

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back, concussion, nose) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Leonard made his season debut in Week 4 after offseason back surgery and suffered a broken nose and a concussion and has missed the last two games. His recovery from a broken nose is his […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. To See More Opportunities

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. is set to see more opportunities moving forward after the team traded away Robbie Anderson earlier this week. "Terrace (Marshall) is going to get a lot of opportunities moving forward," offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo said on Thursday. Alongside Marshall, Shi Smith, Rashard Higgins and Laviska Shenault Jr. (hamstring) […]

Gerald Everett Returns To Full Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (illness) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday with an illness. He's now on track to play in the Week 7 game against the Seattle Seahawks. And with fellow tight end Donald Parham Jr. (concussion) still in the concussion protocol without getting […]

Bradley Roby Carted Off On Thursday Night

New Orleans Saints cornerback Bradley Roby (foot) was carted to the locker room in the first quarter of Thursday night's game against the Arizona Cardinals with what looked to be a foot injury after he stepped on receiver Rondale Moore's foot awkwardly. There's a good chance that Roby won't be able to return to this […]

Raheem Mostert Puts In Full Practice

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was able to put in a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Mostert should be in line to serve as Miami's lead back once again this Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers ahead of Chase Edmonds, who has just three carries in […]

Jaylen Waddle Gets Another Limited Tag

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited again in practice on Thursday. There's nothing to suggest that Waddle will be in danger of missing the Week 7 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. He's coming off his third 100-yard game of the season in the Week 6 loss to the […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Looks Set To Play

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) put in his second full practice of the week on Thursday and looks primed to play in the Week 7 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. St. Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 3, missed Week 4 and returned in Week 5 to catch just four of […]

D'Andre Swift Limited Again Thursday

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Swift hasn't played since Week 3, but he has a shot to return in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys, as long as he doesn't suffer a setback on Friday or Saturday. The 23-year-old […]

DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds Sit Out Of Practice Again

Detroit Lions wide receivers DJ Chark (ankle) and Josh Reynolds (knee) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Chark hasn't played since Week 3 and was seen wearing a walking boot on Thursday, so he almost certainly won't play in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys. Reynolds played through a […]

CeeDee Lamb A Full Practice Participant

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (hip) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Lamb played through the Week 6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with the hip injury and caught five of his 10 targets for 68 yards. The injury doesn't appear to be slowing the […]

Rashod Bateman Puts In Another Limited Practice

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Bateman missed the last two games with a foot sprain, but he appears to be trending in the right direction to potentially return in Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. There's a good chance he will be questionable for Sunday's game, […]

Robbie Anderson Could Play More Than Expected Thursday

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports on Thursday that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Robbie Anderson, who was acquired in a trade from the Carolina Panthers on Monday, could have a baseline of 10 to 15 offensive snaps in his first game with the team on a quick turnaround against the New Orleans Saints. Initial reports suggested […]

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Has Wrist Surgery

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (wrist) dealt with left wrist issues this year and underwent successful surgery on the wrist on Thursday with Dr. Graham in Ohio. Gurriel is expected to be ready for spring training next year. The 29-year-old Cuban outfielder missed the final month of the season due to a left […]

Eduardo Nunez Announces Retirement

Former Boston Red Sox infielder Eduardo Nunez announced his retirement on his personal Instagram account on Thursday. Nunez last played in 2020 in just two games for the New York Mets. The 35-year-old hand not played at all this year and last played in seven games for the Fubon Guardians of the Chinese Professional Baseball […]

Bryson Stott, Brandon Marsh To Return To Lineup Friday

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said the team will go back to rookie shortstop Bryson Stott and outfielder Brandon Marsh in the starting lineup on Friday in Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres and right-hander Joe Musgrove. Outfielder Matt Vierling and infielder Edmundo Sosa got the starts in […]

"No Chance" Zack Wheeler Starts In Game 4

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said there's "no chance" that right-hander Zack Wheeler makes the start in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series against the San Diego Padres on Saturday night on short rest. Wheeler was dominant in the Game 1 win on Tuesday, throwing seven shutout innings with one hit, one walk […]

Ranger Suarez Starting Game 3 Against Padres

Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Ranger Suarez will start Game 3 of the National League Championship Series against the San Diego Padres on Friday night in Philadelphia. It will be his second career playoff start 10 days after he went only 3 1/3 innings in a Game 1 win over the Atlanta Braves in the NL Division […]

Harrison Bader Batting Cleanup In Game 2 Against Astros

New York Yankees outfielder Harrison Bader is starting in center field and is hitting leadoff for Game 2 of the American League Championship Series on Thursday against the Houston Astros and left-hander Framber Valdez. Bader, who played in only 14 regular season games for the team after being acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals at […]

Yordan Alvarez Serving As The DH In Game 2

Houston Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez will serve as the team's designated hitter and bat third in Game 2 of the American League Championship Series on Thursday against New York Yankees right-hander Luis Severino. Alvarez will return to the DH role and swap spots with Aledmys Diaz, who served as the DH in the Game 1 […]

Darren Waller Misses Another Practice Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. It's not a good sign that Waller hasn't practiced coming out of the bye week, so fantasy managers should consider him very questionable to play in Week 7 against the Houston Texans at this point. He'll have a much better […]

Damien Harris Close To Returning

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (hamstring) was back to a full practice on Thursday, which is an indication that he's close to returning. Harris missed the Week 6 win over the Cleveland Browns with his hamstring injury, but it looks like he might return as soon as the Week 7 contest against the […]

Cardinals Place Marquise Brown On Injured Reserve

The Arizona Cardinals placed wide receiver Marquise Brown (foot) and offensive lineman Justin Pugh (knee) on Injured Reserve on Thursday and activated offensive lineman Cody Ford from IR and elevated kicker Rodrigo Blankenship and running back Corey Clement from the practice squad to the active roster in corresponding moves. Brown will be out at least […]

Christian Watson Sidelined Again Thursday

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) missed another day of practice on Thursday. It's Watson's fifth straight missed practice after initially getting hurt in Week 5, and he appears unlikely to play in Week 7 against the Washington Commanders at this rate. Veteran Randall Cobb (ankle) is also out for the foreseeable […]

Aaron Rodgers Back On The Practice Field

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (thumb) returned to a full practice on Thursday and appeared to have a similar tape job on his right thumb as last week. As he did last week, Rodgers returned to practice a day after sitting out on Wednesday. The 38-year-old will play this weekend against the Washington Commanders, […]

Dak Prescott Says He's Playing In Week 7

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb), who put in another full practice on Thursday, said he is starting in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions and won't wear a brace on his surgically repaired finger. He might wear KT tap, but he won't have any limitations with his grip on the football. The Cowboys coaching […]

Another DNP For J.K. Dobbins

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) was unable to practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Dobbins' surgically repaired right knee tightened up on him in the Week 6 loss to the New York Giants, and he didn't play at all in the second half. With the 23-year-old not having practiced […]
