Ben Roethlisberger Resting Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral, shoulder) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Roethlisberger has been battling these two injuries for the vast majority of the season and has a routine of resting early in the week before practicing later in the week. There's no reason to believe that Big Ben will miss […]

Miles Sanders, Jordan Howard Limited Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles running backs Miles Sanders (ankle) and Jordan Howard (knee) were both limited in Wednesday's walkthrough practice. Sanders aggravated an ankle injury in Week 13 that caused him to miss three games earlier this year, but he managed 27 touches for 142 total yards before resting up during last week's bye. Barring a setback […]

Tony Pollard Doesn't Actually Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) rehabbed during the open portion of practice on Wednesday, but he was listed as a DNP on the final practice report. Despite the DNP, the Cowboys are optimistic that Pollard will be able to return to action after missing the Week 14 win over the Washington Football Team […]

Tevin Coleman On Track To Return This Week

New York Jets running back Tevin Coleman (concussion) was practicing in full on Wednesday and looks to be on track to play in Week 15 against the Miami Dolphins after sitting out last Sunday. Barring a setback, Coleman should clear the league's concussion protocols and be cleared to play this weekend. The bad news for […]

James Conner Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ankle) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Conner underwent an MRI exam on Tuesday and the team is calling him day-to-day for now, but a missed practice to begin the week isn't a great start. The 26-year-old scored two more touchdowns in the Monday night loss to […]

Emmanuel Sanders Misses First Practice Of The Week

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) missed practice on Wednesday and will likely miss at least one game after injuring his knee in the Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After the 34-year-old went down on Sunday, Gabriel Davis played an every down role for the Bills and finished with season-highs in […]

Damien Harris, Brandon Bolden Limited Again

New England Patriots running backs Damien Harris (hamstring) and Brandon Bolden (knee) were both limited in practice again on Wednesday. Harris tweaked his hamstring in the first half of the Week 13 game and played one snap in the second half before being ruled out, but the Week 14 bye did him some good. Barring […]

Harrison Bryant Limited, Anthony Schwartz Misses Practice

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was limited in practice again on Wednesday, while rookie wide receiver Anthony Schwartz (concussion) missed practice for the second straight day. Bryant is trending towards a return for the first time since Week 12, and it's notable with tight ends Austin Hooper, David Njoku and Stephen Carlson all […]

Kareem Hunt Still Idle Wednesday

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Wednesday. Hunt injured his ankle in the Week 14 win over the Baltimore Ravens and is expected to miss at least one game as a result. Fantasy managers should've already taken the 26-year-old out of their lineups for […]

Foster Moreau Limited Again Wednesday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Foster Moreau (abdomen) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Wednesday. Moreau played 98 percent of the offensive snaps in the blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last week, so we think he'll be fine to play this Saturday against the Cleveland Browns. Starter Darren Waller […]

Darren Waller Slapped With Another DNP

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (back, knee) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Wednesday. Waller has yet to practice or play since he suffered a knee injury on Thanksgiving against the Dallas Cowboys, and he doesn't look ready to return on Saturday against the Cleveland Browns in Week 15. […]

Austin Ekeler Questionable For Thursday Night

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Ekeler was limited in practice the last two days and came away sore from the injury that he suffered in the Week 14 win over the New York Giants. The Chargers are playing it […]

Jake Fromm Could See Action This Weekend

Although New York Giants quarterback Mike Glennon is expected to start this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys with Daniel Jones (neck) still not cleared for contact, Jake Fromm could see some action in the game as well, according to a source. Neither QB is the answer for this beleaguered Giants offense. Glennon has gone 40-for-80 […]

Michael Carter, Tyler Kroft Designated To Return From IR

The New York Jets designated running back Michael Carter (ankle) and tight end Tyler Kroft (chest) to return from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, opening their 21-day windows for the team to officially activate them from IR. Carter has been out since Week 11 with a low ankle sprain, and he could return to play in […]

Ezekiel Elliott Getting His Explosiveness Back

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) said that he feels he's getting his explosiveness back. "That's definitely the best I've felt in a while. I'm starting to heal up. Last week I wore a knee brace and it helped a lot, giving me some stability. I definitely felt more comfortable," Elliott said. He will […]

Adrian Peterson Has A Chance To Play Sunday

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Adrian Peterson (back) was "running around" at Wednesday's walkthrough practice and has "a chance" to play in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams after missing last week's game against the Houston Texans with low-back pain. However, Rashaad Penny took over the backfield in the […]

Curtis Samuel Held Out Wednesday

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) was sore after the Week 14 loss to the Dallas Cowboys and was held out of practice on Wednesday. It doesn't sound like something that will keep Samuel from playing in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles, but he'll still likely need to get back on the […]

J.D. McKissic Missing From Practice

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic (concussion) missed another practice on Wednesday. McKissic was able to practice on a limited basis late last week, but he has missed the last two games and remains in the league's concussion protocols. Antonio Gibson has benefitted from more work in the backfield, with Wendell Smallwood and Jonathan […]

Taylor Heinicke's Elbow Feels Good

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke (elbow, knee) said his elbow is a bigger issue than his knee. "Definitely the elbow. There's some bruising there, it's tender, hurts a little bit. I went out and practiced today and the elbow didn't hurt when I was throwing, so it's all around good news," Heinicke said. The […]

Graham Gano Out Sick Wednesday

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (illness) missed practice on Wednesday with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Gano has two more days to get back on the practice field. If he practices at some point, he should be fine to kick for the Giants in Week 15 against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys. Currently the No. 17 fantasy […]

Saquon Barkley Absent On Wednesday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. The team held a walkthrough practice on Wednesday and gave Barkley a little extra rest heading into the Week 15 divisional tilt with the Dallas Cowboys. Barkley missed Weeks 6-9 with a sprained ankle, but he's healthy now and should be just […]

Melvin Gordon III Won't Practice

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (thumb) will not practice to begin the week on Wednesday. Gordon injured his thumb in the Week 14 win over the Detroit Lions, but he returned to action and finished with 111 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries. The 28-year-old was held out the previous week […]

Dee Ford Won't Return This Season

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that defensive end Dee Ford (back) will not be activated from Injured Reserve and won't return for the rest of the 2021 season. The 30-year-old has been sidelined since late October. He'll finish the season with five tackles (three solo), three sacks and a forced fumble in […]

George Kittle Misses Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) missed practice on Wednesday due to knee soreness. The 49ers are likely just resting Kittle early in the week, but it's something to keep an eye on as we get closer to their Week 15 meeting against the Atlanta Falcons. The 28-year-old caught a season-high 13 passes […]

Elijah Mitchell Not Practicing Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (concussion, knee) missed practice on Wednesday after missing practice all of last week and not playing in the Week 14 overtime win over the Cincinnati Bengals. With Mitchell out, Jeff Wilson Jr. saw 13 carries for 56 yards, with receiver Deebo Samuel also carrying eight times for […]

D.J. Moore Expected To Play

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said that he would expect wide receiver D.J. Moore (hamstring) to play in Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Moore was a limited practice participant on Wednesday after he left the game late last Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. Moore was considered day-to-day on Monday, so the […]

Jalen Hurts Dealing With High Ankle Sprain

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) is dealing with a high ankle sprain, which can be tricky. It explains why he's splitting repetitions with Gardner Minshew this week in practice. Hurts is trying to play this weekend against the Washington Football Team, but if he's not ready, Minshew will make his second straight start. Head […]

Joe Burrow Won't Practice Wednesday

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that quarterback Joe Burrow (finger) will not practice on Wednesday in order to rest his right pinkie finger, but there isn't any concern about his performance in games. Burrow isn't in any danger of missing the Week 15 game against the Denver Broncos, and he should be back […]

Rex Burkhead Won't Play In Week 15

Houston Texans head coach David Culley said that running back Rex Burkhead (hip) will not be able to play in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. With Burkhead out, David Johnson and Royce Freeman will split the team's backfield this weekend. With Johnson out due to COVID-19 last weekend, Burkhead and Freeman split the load, […]

T.J. Hockenson Not Practicing To Begin The Week

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (hand) will not practice on Wednesday. It's not a good sign for his Week 15 availability against the Arizona Cardinals after he missed the Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos. Fantasy managers that have been rolling with Hockenson all year long will likely need a replacement for the […]
