Nelson Agholor Targeted Just Once In Week 17

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor was barely involved in the 23-21 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 17 on Sunday. Agholor played just 27 offensive snaps and failed to catch his only target, leaving his fantasy managers with a fat donut. It was the second straight week that he failed to log […]

Teddy Bridgewater Dealing With Dislocated Pinkie

Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (pinkie) suffered a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand in the third quarter of the Week 17 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday and will undergo testing and imaging on Monday. The Dolphins hope that Bridgewater's finger isn't broken as well, but we'll know more soon. Tua […]

Broncos Defense Does Little In Week 17

The Denver Broncos defense should not have been in anyone's fantasy lineups in the Week 17 matchup against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs and their high-flying offense. The Denver D played much better than last week when they allowed a season-high 51 points to the lowly Los Angeles Rams, and they held the Chiefs to […]

Brandon McManus Hits One Field Goal Against Chiefs

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus totaled just seven fantasy points in most leagues in the team's 27-24 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17 on Sunday on the road. He was afforded three extra-point tries (he was successful on all of them) and made his only field-goal attempt on the day. This […]

Jerry Jeudy Does Little With Eight Targets

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy was once again quarterback Russell Wilson's favorite target -- he had a team-high eight targets in the Week 17 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs -- but he did very little with all of those looks. Jeudy finished the 27-24 defeat with seven receptions for only 38 yards […]

Courtland Sutton Has Four Grabs In Loss To Chiefs

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had another very pedestrian performance for his fantasy managers in the Week 17 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Sutton finished the day with four catches on his six targets for 44 yards, which was one yard shy of the team lead. His six targets were tied for […]

Albert Okwuegbunam Re-Enters The Fantasy Picture

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam was expected to have a very big role in the offense this year after Noah Fant was shipped to the Seattle Seahawks in the Russell Wilson trade. Instead, Okwuegbunam disappeared entirely, especially when rookie Greg Dulcich (hamstring) made his debut, and he entered the Week 17 game against the […]

Chase Edmonds Has 73 Scrimmage Yards In Week 17

Denver Broncos running back Chase Edmonds was the clear No. 2 to Latavius Murray yet again in the team's Week 17 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Edmonds finished the 27-24 loss with seven carries for 34 yards (4.9 yards per carry) and also caught all three of his targets through the […]

Latavius Murray Handles 16 Touches In Loss To Chiefs

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray was efficient in the Week 17 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, but he failed to find the end zone on 16 touches. He led the backfield with 12 carries for 56 yards (4.7 yards per carry) and had a season-high-tying four receptions for an additional […]

Russell Wilson Rushes For Two Touchdowns In Week 17

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson has been a huge disappointment in his first year with the Broncos, but he had one of his best games of the season in the 27-24 loss to the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Wilson finished 26-for-38 for 222 yards, one touchdown and an interception while adding four carries […]

Braves Sign Joshua Fuentes

The Atlanta Braves signed infielder Joshua Fuentes to a minor-league deal on Saturday. Fuentes did not play at all in the big leagues in 2022. He began the year with Triple-A Buffalo in the Toronto Blue Jays' system, hitting .162/.205/.200 with a homer and five RBI in 29 games before playing in the Mexican independent […]

Yankees Add Billy McKinney On Minor-League Deal

The New York Yankees signed free-agent outfielder Billy McKinney to a minor-league deal on Saturday, according to the minor-league transactions age. McKinney was acquired by the Yankees along with infielder Gleyber Torres in the Aroldis Chapman trade back in 2016. He was then traded to the Toronto Blue Jays in the trade involving left-hander J.A. […]

Kris Bryant Should Be Ready For Spring Training

The Colorado Rockies are optimistic that third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (foot) will be ready for spring training after he was limited to 42 games in 2022 due to plantar fasciitis. "Our trainers and strength guys have checked in with him and from everything I'm being told he looks good. We are optimistic about him showing […]

Eric Hosmer In Talks With The Cubs

The Chicago Cubs have been in talks with free-agent first baseman Eric Hosmer. It looks promising, but no deal has been agreed upon yet. Hosmer was officially released by the Boston Red Sox last week after being designated for assignment. He began the 2022 season with the San Diego Padres before being traded to Boston […]

Willie Calhoun Signs With Yankees

The New York Yankees agreed to a non-roster minor-league deal with free-agent outfielder Willie Calhoun on Saturday, according to a source. Calhoun will receive an invitation to major-league spring training. The 28-year-old was one of the Texas Rangers' top prospects, but he never ended up panning out over six seasons. He joined the San Francisco […]

Nick Foles Getting Another Start In Week 17

Indianapolis Colts interim head coach Jeff Saturday said that quarterback Nick Foles will remain the starter under center for the Week 17 game against the New York Giants. The Colts benched Matt Ryan for the second time this year in favor of Foles for the Monday night game against the Los Angeles Chargers, and it […]

Cameron Brate A Healthy Scratch On New Year's Day

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate is a healthy scratch and will not play in Week 17 in a big divisional showdown against the Carolina Panthers. Brate's disappointing 2022 continues after he played just eight offensive snaps in last week's overtime win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was expected to be a much bigger […]

Julio Jones Active In Week 17

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee) is officially active for Week 17 against the division-rival Carolina Panthers in a game with huge playoff implications. Meanwhile, fellow receiver Breshad Perriman is a healthy scratch. Jones missed some time with knee issues earlier this year and has been battling through a knee injury again late […]

Tommy Tremble Active Against Tampa

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble (hip) is officially active for the Week 17 divisional showdown with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Meanwhile, wide receiver Rashard Higgins is a healthy scratch. Tremble came into this contest as questionable due to his hip injury, but he will play and should be Carolina's top pass-catching tight […]

Justin Jackson Out Against The Bears

Detroit Lions running back Justin Jackson (hip) is officially out for Week 17 against the Chicago Bears. Jackson came into the game listed as questionable after picking up a hip injury in Friday's practice, and he'll end up sitting this one out. The 26-year-old has been the clear No. 3 in Detroit's backfield this year […]

Chase Claypool, Dante Pettis Active On Sunday

Chicago Bears wide receivers Chase Claypool (knee) and Dante Pettis (ankle) are both officially active on New Year's Day to face the Detroit Lions in Week 17. Claypool will be on the field for the first time since Week 13, and it remains to be seen if he'll see his normal workload on offense. During […]

Marshon Lattimore Making His Return In Week 17

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) is officially active in Week 17 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Lattimore has not been active since Week 5 due to an abdominal injury, but he'll be out there on Sunday. Because of the long layoff, it's not wise to expect the 26-year-old to be out there for every […]

Chris Olave Active Against Eagles

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver Chris Olave (hamstring) is officially active for the Week 17 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Olave missed last week's win over the Cleveland Browns but returned to limited practices this week and will return to action this weekend as the Saints look to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. […]

Richie James May Struggle To Produce Against Colts

New York Giants wide receiver Richie James led the team with eight catches on a season-high 11 targets for a season-high 90 yards receiving in the Week 16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. James has seen at least nine targets in two of his last three games and is becoming a more popular target for […]

David Blough Not Recommended In Sixth Career Start

Arizona Cardinals quarterback David Blough will be making his sixth career start in Week 17 against a lackluster Atlanta Falcons defense with Colt McCoy still dealing with concussion symptoms. Blough has not played at all in 2022 and will be making his first start since 2019, so even though the matchup is a good one, […]

Brian Robinson Jr.'s Usage To Go Up In Week 17

Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson Jr. is on the verge of seeing his usage expand in Week 17 against the Cleveland Browns with Antonio Gibson (ankle, foot) officially ruled out. The Browns defense ranks 30th in rush DVOA on the season, so Robinson will have some clear fantasy upside when managers need him […]

Will Dissly Might Require Surgery

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that tight end Will Dissly (knee) may need surgery on his knee after he was placed on Injured Reserve this week. "We're hoping not and thinking not, but we've got to wait and see," Carroll said. We should have more information on what exactly the 26-year-old is dealing […]

Yannick Ngakoue Placed On Injured Reserve

The Indianapolis Colts placed defensive end Yannick Ngakoue (throat) on Injured Reserve on Saturday, ending his 2022 season with just two games to go. Ngakoue suffered a throat injury in Week 16 and will require surgery. The 27-year-old has been Indy's best pass-rusher this year, so it will be a big loss for their final […]

Marwin Gonzalez Heading To Japan On One-Year Deal

Veteran utility player Marwin Gonzalez signed a one-year, $1.5 million deal with the Orix Buffaloes of Nippon Professional Baseball in Japan on Friday. The 33-year-old hit just .185/.255/.321 in 86 games for the New York Yankees last season with a .576 OPS, six home runs, 18 RBI, 20 runs scored and three stolen bases in […]

Willi Castro Signs Minor-League Deal With Twins

The Minnesota Twins signed free-agent infielder Willi Castro to a minor-league deal on Friday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training. Castro can play pretty much all over the diamond, but he spent most of his time in 2022 with the Detroit Tigers in the outfield. He finished the year hitting .241/.284/.367 with a […]
