Joe Flacco Likely To Start In Week 1

Although New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said the team can wait until the week before the Sept. 11 regular season opener against the Baltimore Ravens to name a starting quarterback between Zach Wilson (knee) and veteran Joe Flacco, all signs point to Flacco getting the start. Wilson is a week removed from surgery […]

Nick Vannett Might Be Expendable

New Orleans Saints tight end Nick Vannett is a trade/cut candidate with training camp nearing an end, according to league sources. Vannett averaged over 30 snaps per game last year in New Orleans, but he's now part of a position battle with Adam Trautman, Taysom Hill, Juwan Johnson, J.P. Holtz and Lucas Krull. The majority […]

Myles Gaskin A Trade/Cut Candidate

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin was the team's leading rusher each of the last two seasons, but the team added Chase Edmonds, Raheem Mostert and Sony Michel in the offseason. They also have Salvon Ahmed. Edmonds is expected to be the lead back, and Mostert has extensive history with head coach Mike McDaniel. Gaskin […]

Darrel Williams Could Be A Surprise Cut

Arizona Cardinals running back Darrel Williams could be a surprise cut or trade candidate this summer, according to multiple league sources. Williams will make only $1.035 million this year, and the Cardinals don't have much RB depth with Williams, Eno Benjamin, rookie Keaontay Ingram and Jonathan Ward behind starter James Conner. However, Williams has played […]

O.J. Howard In Danger Of Being Cut

Buffalo Bills tight end O.J. Howard is in danger of being cut from the roster before the regular season. It was notable that tight end Quintin Morris started in place of Dawson Knox (personal) in the team's second preseason game, and next off the bench was Tommy Sweeney. Howard was on the field for just […]

Eric Fisher Wants To Play In 2022

Former No. 1 overall pick and offensive tackle Eric Fisher said he wants to play this year but will be selective. He's already turned down offers from nine teams so far. It's unclear if the Dallas Cowboys are one of those teams, but they certainly have a need now after losing starting left tackle Tyron […]

Patriots Release Malcolm Butler

The New England Patriots released cornerback Malcolm Butler (undisclosed) from Injured Reserve with an injury settlement on Thursday. Butler can now sign with another team and play in 2022. The 32-year-old veteran will be hoping to latch on with another team, but it remains to be seen if he's even healthy enough to be ready […]

Tyron Smith To Have Surgery Friday

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (hamstring) will have surgery on Friday, and the team hopes he'll be able to return at some point in December. Smith suffered an avulsion fracture of his left knee in training camp practice, meaning his hamstring tendon that sits at the back of the knee pulled off the bone, […]

Treylon Burks Doesn't Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks didn't take part in Thursday's training camp practice due to undisclosed reasons. Burks left Wednesday's practice due to undisclosed reasons as well. The 22-year-old had conditioning issues related to asthma in the spring, so it's fair to wonder if it's related to that. Burks, a first-round selection eventually […]

Drake London Misses Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons rookie first-round wide receiver Drake London (knee) didn't take part in Thursday's training camp practice. London has been dealing with a nagging knee injury that he sustained in the preseason opener, but it doesn't appear to be a long-term issue and he should be ready to go for Week 1 of the regular […]

Garrett Wilson Has Dealt With Drops

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Garrett Wilson had made a habit of following up highlight-reel catches with bad drops throughout training camp, but he continues to make an impression this summer with his elite-level athleticism. Wilson had three catches, including a touchdown, in joint practice with the New York Giants on Thursday. Quarterback Joe […]

Antonio Gibson To Be Top Kick Returner?

Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera seemed to name running back Antonio Gibson as the team's top kick returner this year. "You still need to see some more stuff, but you know, I think he is. I do. I think he's done a nice job," Rivera said. Gibson's fantasy stock has been falling basically all […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Catches Passes Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) was out on the field catching passes from quarterback Patrick Mahomes on Thursday before the team's preseason finale, which is the first time he's been on the field since early last week.

Nathan Eovaldi Resumes Throwing

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) played catch on Wednesday and Thursday and might throw off a mound on Friday.

As of right now, […]

Ty France Suffers Calf Bruise

Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France (calf) left Thursday's game against the Cleveland Guardians early with a right calf bruise. France went hitless in his only at-bat of the game before being replaced by Jake Lamb at the cold corner. Check back for more information on the severity of his injury, but for now, fantasy […]

Tyler Wells Throws Second Bullpen Session

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Tyler Wells (oblique) threw his second bullpen session on Thursday and all reports were positive.

It's undecided if Wells will return to the Orioles as a starter or reliever to close out the 2022 […]

Phillies Place Zack Wheeler On Injured List

The Philadelphia Phillies placed right-hander Zack Wheeler (forearm) on the 15-day injured list with right forearm tendinitis on Thursday, with the move being retroactive to Aug. 22. It comes after he has given up 10 runs in 11 1/3 innings over his last two outings, so it's possible Wheeler had been pitching through some discomfort. […]

Ryan Pressly Going On The Injured List

Houston Astros closer Ryan Pressly (neck) is going on the injured list on Thursday due to neck stiffness. The Astros are calling up Seth Martinez from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move. Pressly was unavailable to pitch the last two days, and now the Astros will keep him out for the next 15 days. […]

Kyle Tucker Out Thursday With Foot Injury

Houston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (foot) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Minnesota Twins due to a foot injury. For now, fantasy managers should consider Tucker day-to-day until we know more. It's bad timing, as the 25-year-old lefty slugger is in the midst of a 15-game hitting streak in which he's […]

Nationals Claim Tommy Romero Off Waivers

The Washington Nationals claimed right-hander Tommy Romero off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday and optioned him to Triple-A Rochester.

The Los Angeles Angels moved infielder Jared Walsh (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list on Thursday, which will officially end his 2022 season after he was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome.

New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes (groin) is expected to be placed on the 15-day injured list with a groin injury, according to sources.

Xander Bogaerts, Tommy Pham Return Against Blue Jays

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (back) and outfielder Tommy Pham (back) are both back in the starting lineup on Thursday against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Bogaerts is back at short and hitting cleanup, while Pham is in left field and batting leadoff. Both players left the game early on Tuesday with lower […]

Eloy Jimenez Back In The Lineup

Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (elbow) is serving as the designated hitter and batting fifth on Thursday against Baltimore Orioles right-hander Jordan Lyles. Jimenez was hit by a pitch on Tuesday and sat out on Wednesday, but fantasy managers should get him back into their starting lineups on Thursday. The 25-year-old Dominican slugger only […]

Bryson Stott Hitting Third Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies rookie infielder Bryson Stott is starting at shortstop and is hitting third in the batting order on Thursday against the Cincinnati Reds and right-hander Justin Dunn.

Nolan Arenado, Dylan Carlson Out Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado and outfielder Dylan Carlson are out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Chicago Cubs.
