Mac Jones, Patriots Offense Could Struggle

The New England Patriots offense looked out of sorts for most of training camp this summer. They had issues with basic plays, and their offensive line struggled to block. It's not a huge surprise after former offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels left the team to coach the Las Vegas Raiders. We should never question head coach […]

Michael Carter "The Heartbeat" Of Jets Offense

New York Jets offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur called running back Michael Carter "the heartbeat of our offense."

Ravens, Lamar Jackson Cannot Reach Deal On Extension

Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta said that no deal was reached with quarterback Lamar Jackson by Friday's deadline to come to a long-term contract extension.

Houston Texans head coach Lovie Smith confirmed that rookie running back Dameon Pierce will get the start in his NFL debut in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds (groin) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Fellow back Myles Gaskin (neck) also put in a full practice.

Ozzie Albies Goes Hitless In Rehab Game

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies (foot) went 0-for-3 in three plate appearances in his minor league rehab game for Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday and is now 3-for-15 in four games played since starting his rehab assignment last week.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) left his start early in the third inning on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants with right shoulder fatigue, according to the team.

Khalil Shakir Inactive Thursday Night

Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Khalil Shakir is listed as a healthy inactive for Week 1 of the regular season on Thursday night against the Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. The Bills like their fifth-round pass-catcher a lot, but Buffalo is also notorious for bringing their rookies along slowly, so Shakir will have to […]

Curtis Mead Shut Down For The Season

Tampa Bay Rays infield prospect Curtis Mead (elbow, forearm) has been shut down for the rest of the season. Mead elected to receive an injection to help with his healing process, but it didn't make sense for him to return for the final 10 games in 2022. The 21-year-old is the club's top hitting prospect […]

Keibert Ruiz Sent To The Hospital

Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz (groin) was sent to the hospital on Thursday after leaving the game early against the St. Louis Cardinals with swollen testicles after getting hit with a foul ball.

Max Kepler Out Of The Starting Lineup

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (hip) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the New York Yankees. Kepler will miss his fourth straight game and remains day-to-day for now. The good news is that he's come off the bench in two of the team's last three games, so there's a good chance he'll […]

Tony Kemp Back In Action Thursday

Oakland Athletics second baseman Tony Kemp (groin) is starting at second base and is hitting leadoff on Thursday against the Chicago White Sox and right-hander Dylan Cease. Kemp returns to the starting lineup after sitting out Wednesday with groin tightness. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should shuffle the 30-year-old back into their starting lineups as […]

Jonathan Schoop Activated From Injured List

Expect him […]

Luis Robert On The Bench Against A's

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert (hand, wrist) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Oakland Athletics. Robert was hit by a pitch on Tuesday and suffered a bruised left hand, so he'll miss his second straight game Thursday. The 25-year-old was dealing with a wrist injury on the same hand before […]

Giancarlo Stanton Still Out Thursday

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (foot) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Minnesota Twins. Stanton will miss his third straight game after missing the entire doubleheader on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should consider the 32-year-old slugger to be day-to-day for now. With Stanton out again on Thursday, Miguel Andujar will serve […]

Lou Trivino Dealing With Back Spasms

New York Yankees right-handed reliever Lou Trivino (back) is dealing with back spasms, manager Aaron Boone said on Wednesday. Trivino said it's something he deals with about once a year, and it usually takes two or three days to clear up. With that said, it's unlikely that he'll be available out of the bullpen in […]

Nestor Cortes Starting Against Twins Thursday

New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes (groin) is listed as the team's scheduled starter on Thursday against the Minnesota Twins. He'll be activated at some point before the start from the 15-day injured list after he landed on the IL on Aug. 25 with a left groin strain. The 27-year-old southpaw didn't make a minor […]

DJ LeMahieu Ticketed For Injured List

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (toe) will be placed on the injured list with a sprained toe, according to skipper Aaron Boone. LeMahieu had not been in the team's starting lineup since Sunday, and he'll now miss another week of action, at the very least. It's another big blow to a struggling Yankees team […]

Victor Robles Dealing With Neck Stiffness

Washington Nationals outfielder Victor Robles (neck) was scratched from the team's starting lineup on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals due to neck stiffness. With Robles out, Alex Call got the start in left field and was hitting ninth, while Lane Thomas moved to center field and hit leadoff against Cardinals right-hander Adam Wainwright. Fantasy […]

Zack Wheeler Plays Catch Again Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler (forearm) played catch from 90 feet on Thursday and will do so again from 120 feet on Friday. After that, he'll progress to a bullpen session, and he could return to the starting rotation without making a minor league rehab start. That's good news for fantasy managers, as time […]

Brewers Option Esteury Ruiz To Minors

The Milwaukee Brewers optioned outfielder Esteury Ruiz to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday and reinstated infielder Mike Brosseau (oblique) from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Ruiz has gone hitless in eight at-bats with two runs scored over three games after Milwaukee called up him at the start of September when rosters expanded. The […]

J.K. Dobbins' Status To Be Determined Friday

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is ascending quickly in his recovery from a torn ACL that kept him out all last season, and his status for the Week 1 regular season opener against the New York Jets won't be determined until Friday. Dobbins has been limited so far […]
