Jimmy Garoppolo Not Going On Injured Reserve

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said on Friday that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) won't be placed on Injured Reserve because the team has already used six of their eight activations from Injured Reserve in 2022. The team also has running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) that they hope can return for the playoffs, so […]

Nico Collins, Derek Stingley Jr. Not Expected To Play

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (foot) and rookie cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. (hamstring) are not expected to play in Week 14 against the Dallas Cowboys. With receiver Brandin Cooks (calf) also likely out for the second straight game, the Texans will be forced to rely on Chris Moore and Phillip Dorsett as their top […]

Saquon Barkley's Status In Doubt For Week 14

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that it's possible running back Saquon Barkley's (neck) status is in doubt for Week 14 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Daboll hopes Barkley will play, but his neck is sore and he was limited in practice on Thursday. Mid-week additions to the injury report are usually […]

Zach Ertz Had Surgery On ACL And MCL

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (knee) revealed on Thursday that he underwent surgery in late November on his ACL and MCL, but he hopes to be ready for Week 1 of the 2023 regular season despite being in the early stages of his rehab. The 32-year-old is not going to be ready for the […]

Kadarius Toney Puts In Another Limited Practice

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was listed as a limited practice participant for the second straight day on Thursday. Toney has missed the last two games with a hamstring injury that has plagued him since early in the year when he was with the New York Giants. The 23-year-old is making progress, […]

Treylon Burks Misses Another Practice

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks (concussion), who suffered a concussion in the Week 13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, missed a second straight practice on Thursday. The 22-year-old remains in the league's concussion protocol and will have to put in some activity in practice to avoid being ruled out on the final injury […]

Amari Cooper, David Njoku Limited Thursday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper (hip) and tight end David Njoku (knee) were both limited in practice on Thursday. Cooper was given a veteran rest day on Wednesday but is now dealing with a hip injury that we'll have to monitor before Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 28-year-old caught four of his […]

Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel Limited Again Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (knee) and wide receiver Deebo Samuel (quadriceps) were both limited in practice again on Thursday while going through individual drills. CMC and Samuel are on track to play in Week 14 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but they could be questionable on Friday's final injury report. McCaffrey played […]

Jaylen Waddle Back To A Full Practice Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday with a fibula injury. The return to a full practice on Thursday is a good sign that Waddle will be a full-go in Week 14 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers after leaving the […]

Tyreek Hill Sits Out With Illness Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (illness) missed practice on Thursday with an illness. As long as Hill is able to do something on Friday, he should play in a Week 14 Sunday night showdown against the Los Angeles Chargers. When active, the Cheetah is an elite must-start WR1 for fantasy managers. In half-point PPR […]

Jerry Jeudy, Brandon McManus Limited Thursday

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle) and kicker Brandon McManus (quadriceps) were both limited in practice on Thursday. Jeudy returned from a two-game absence in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and has been limited in both practices this week. McManus is dealing with a right quad injury and could be questionable […]

Broncos Defense Needs To Be Avoided Against Chiefs

The Denver Broncos defense should be far away from starting fantasy lineups in a Week 14 divisional matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Their offense with superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes averages a league-high 29.2 points per game and a league-high 423.3 yards per game. The Broncos defense is allowing the second-fewest points per game (17.0) […]

Greg Dulcich Has A Big Opportunity In Week 14

Denver Broncos rookie tight end Greg Dulcich's fantasy stock is on the rise again. The 22-year-old had a rough three-game stretch in Weeks 10-12 in which he caught only seven of 12 targets for 52 scoreless yards. But he bounced back in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens by catching six of eight […]

Kendall Hinton Could See An Elevated Role Again

Denver Broncos wide receiver Kendall Hinton could be the team's No. 2 receiver yet again in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) unlikely to suit up after getting hurt in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Hinton saw a season-high nine targets in Week 12 and caught eight […]

Mike Boone Expected To Have Bigger Role This Week

Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Justin Outten said he "absolutely" sees running back Mike Boone having a bigger role in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs after coming back from the Injured Reserve in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. "The second week I see him going up," Outten said. Boone carried the […]

Courtland Sutton Misses Another Practice

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (hamstring) missed his second straight practice this week on Thursday. Head coach Nathaniel Hackett said Sutton was day-to-day on Monday after he suffered a hamstring injury in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, but he's now trending in the wrong direction to play this Sunday against the […]

Latavius Murray A Volume-Based RB2 In Week 14

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray has become a volume-based, low-end RB2 as the team's unquestioned lead back. Murray was the clear leader of the backfield in the Week 13 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and had a season-high 17 carries for the second time in the last three games. Despite averaging just 3.7 yards […]

Russell Wilson A Low-End QB2 Against Chiefs

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson will probably have to throw the ball often in the Week 14 matchup against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs, but he should still not be considered anything more than a low-end QB2 in fantasy. Wilson is also likely to be without the team's leading receiver in Courtland Sutton (hamstring), who […]

David Robertson Joins Mets Bullpen

The New York Mets agreed with relief pitcher David Robertson on a one-year, $10 million deal on Thursday, according to a source familiar with the contract. The Met got significantly better on Thursday evening, also re-signing center fielder Brandon Nimmo to a monster eight-year, $162 million deal. The 2022 season with the Philadelphia Phillies was […]

Mets Bring Back Brandon Nimmo On Eight-Year Deal

The New York Mets agreed to re-sign outfielder Brandon Nimmo to an eight-year, $162 million deal on Thursday, according to sources familiar with the deal. The Mets keep their on-base machine of a center fielder, and the biggest payroll in baseball only gets bigger. The former first-rounder will remain the team's leadoff man with a […]

Travis Homer, Marquise Goodwin Practice In Full

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (knee) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (hand) both put in full practices on Thursday. Homer was limited on Wednesday, while Goodwin didn't practice at all. Rookie Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) have yet to practice this week, so if one or both are inactive in Week […]

Geno Smith, DK Metcalf Limited In Practice

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (shoulder) and wide receiver DK Metcalf (hip) were both added to the Week 14 injury report on Thursday and were listed as limited practice participants. Unless either player gets a downgrade in Friday's practice, they should be able to play this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Smith is having a […]

Kenneth Walker III, DeeJay Dallas Miss Practice

Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Walker jammed his ankle in the Week 13 win over the Los Angeles Rams, and both he and Dallas are highly questionable to play this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Meanwhile, […]

Joe Mixon To Remain The Lead Back

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has cleared the league's concussion protocol, has put in two full practices this week and is set to end his two-game absence and play in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. He'll return as the team's lead back, with Samaje Perine working as the ultimate situational runner […]

John Wolford Looks Likely To Start Thursday Night

Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is under center with the starting offense during pre-game drills on Thursday night, so it looks like he'll get the start over Baker Mayfield against the Las Vegas Raiders. Wolford was questionable coming into this one with an injury, but he's active and will at least start the […]

Marlins Acquire Jake Mangum From The Mets

The Miami Marlins acquired outfielder Jake Mangum as the player to be named later in the trade with the New York Mets that involved Jeff Brigham and Elieser Hernandez. Mangum wasn't one of the Mets' top 30 prospects, and he was left unprotected in this week's Rule 5 draft. Mangum is strong defensively and has […]

Reds Sign Silvino Bracho To Minor-League Deal

The Cincinnati Reds signed right-hander Silvino Bracho to a minor-league deal on Thursday with an invitation to major-league spring training. Bracho appeared in the big leagues in 2022 for the first time in two years, giving up three earned runs on three hits while walking one and striking out four in only 4 1/3 relief […]

Austin Allen Signs With Marlins

The Miami Marlins signed catcher Austin Allen and shortstop Alex De Goti to minor-league deals and also claimed right-hander Nic Enright off waivers from the Cleveland Guardians. Allen played in five games for the Oakland Athletics last season and went 1-for-14 with a walk, a run scored and nine strikeouts. The 28-year-old was traded to […]

J.P. Feyereisen Has Shoulder Surgery

Tampa Bay Rays right-hander J.P. Feyereisen (shoulder) had right shoulder surgery on Wednesday that was described as a "general cleanup of the rotator cuff and labrum." The goal is for Feyereisen to resume throwing in four months, so he will miss at least the start of the 2023 season. Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin believes […]

Zay Jones Limited Again Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Zay Jones (chest) put in a limited practice on Thursday for the second day in a row this week. There's no indication that Jones' injury will keep him from playing this weekend against the Tennessee Titans. However, quarterback Trevor Lawrence (toe) might not play, so Jacksonville's receivers would need to be […]
