Chase Edmonds Will Not Play Sunday

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that running back Chase Edmonds (ribs) will not play on Sunday in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Seattle Seahawks. Edmonds has been the team's lead back the last two weeks with James Conner (heel) sidelined, but fantasy managers will be without Edmonds this weekend. Conner […]

Packers Plan To Start Aaron Rodgers Against Lions

The Green Bay Packers are planning on starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Sunday against the Detroit Lions, and head coach Matt LaFleur will see how the game goes. "I don't think he needs to play. I think he wants to play and keep the momentum going," LaFleur said. The Packers have already locked up the […]

Lamar Jackson Ruled Out For Week 18

After missing practice all week, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) has been ruled out of the Week 18 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Ravens announced earlier on Friday that Tyler Huntley would make another start, sealing Jackson's fate in missing his fourth straight game to close out the year. It was a tough […]

Is Aaron Rodgers Playing This Week? Should I Start Aaron Rodgers in Week 18?

There's a reason why most fantasy football leagues end in Week 17 in the second-to-last week of the regular season. By the time the last week of the regular season rolls around (in Week 18 now), many NFL teams have already either locked up a playoff spot or been eliminated from postseason contention. In turn, […]

Is Jimmy Garoppolo Playing This Week? Should I Start Trey Lance In Week 18?

The San Francisco 49ers are facing a must-win situation in the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams on the road, and the Rams won't be throwing backups out there. They, too, have something to play for -- the NFC West title. In a huge game for San Fran, they face […]

Is Derrick Henry Playing This Week? Should I Start Derrick Henry In Week 18?

Most fantasy football leagues came to an end in Week 17. But if your league is a little different and concludes in Week 18, the final week of the regular season, or if you are playing DFS, then you should still be monitoring player news and injury information across the NFL. The Tennessee Titans jumped […]

Ronald Jones II Not At Thursday's Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II (ankle) was not seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Jones was seen wearing a walking boot after practice on Wednesday, so he's definitely on the wrong side of questionable heading into the Week 18 regular season finale against the Carolina Panthers. If you're […]

Shi Smith Placed On COVID-19 List

The Carolina Panthers placed rookie wide receiver Shi Smith and veteran cornerback Stephon Gilmore on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Smith, a sixth-round pick, has been buried on the depth chart in his first NFL season, and he's unlikely to be available to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Tampa Bay […]

Elijah Mitchell Back At Practice Thursday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) got in a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session. Mitchell returned in Week 17 against the Houston Texans after a three-game absence and jumped right back into the workhorse role, seeing 23 touches for 130 scrimmage yards and a receiving touchdown. The 23-year-old […]

Emmanuel Sanders Missing Again Thursday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) missed another day of practice on Thursday. Sanders has missed two of the last three games with a knee injury, and he seems unlikely to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Jets. The Bills will probably have the 34-year-old rest his knee […]

Michael Carter Practices In Full Thursday

New York Jets rookie running back Michael Carter (concussion) returned to a full practice on Thursday and is on track to clear the league's concussion protocol and play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Buffalo Bills. The 22-year-old was on pace for a big day in last week's loss to the Tampa […]

Back-To-Back Missed Practices For Braxton Berrios

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios (quadriceps) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. The Jets have been optimistic that Berrios can play in Week 18 against the Buffalo Bills, but he'll likely need to practice in some form on Friday in order to play in the regular season finale on Sunday. […]

Mark Ingram II Misses Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II (knee) was not at practice on Thursday. Ingram was a limited practice on Wednesday, so either he had a setback with his knee injury, or the Saints gave him a rest in the middle of the practice week. It's also worth noting that the 32-year-old veteran missed […]

Chris Conley, Chris Moore Missing From Practice

Houston Texans wide receivers Chris Conley (knee) and Chris Moore (illness) and tight end Jordan Akins (illness) all missed practice on Thursday. Conley has missed both days of practice this week, while Moore and Akins were added to the Week 18 injury report on Thursday. All three players might have to practice on Friday in […]

Julio Jones On Track To Play In Week 18

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday. Jones was inactive in Week 17 against the Miami Dolphins due to COVID-19, but he's primed to return in Week 18 against the Houston Texans as the Titans look to lock up a […]

Marquise Brown Added To Week 18 Injury Report

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) popped up on the Week 18 injury report on Thursday after not practicing. Brown wasn't listed on the report on Wednesday, so it's possible he tweaked his ankle in practice on Thursday. The 24-year-old is likely to at least be questionable to play on Sunday against the Pittsburgh […]

Lamar Jackson Out Again Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) missed another day of practice on Thursday. Jackson hasn't practiced since getting on the practice field last Wednesday and limping badly. Unless something changes dramatically on Friday, Jackson will be out in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Pittsburgh Steelers as Baltimore tries to keep their playoff […]

David Njoku Misses Another Practice

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (shoulder) missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Njoku should be considered very questionable to play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. He'll likely need to practice in some capacity on Friday in order to play. The 25-year-old caught […]

Tony Pollard Questionable To Face Eagles

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable to play in Week 18 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. Pollard suffered a torn plantar fascia in his left foot in Week 13 but only missed one game, and he's seen 31 touches for 195 scrimmage […]

Miles Sanders Officially Ruled Out For Saturday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hand) missed practice all week and has officially been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys. The expectation all along was that Sanders wouldn't return until the postseason after breaking his hand in Week 16. He had 100-yard performances in two […]

Broncos Defense Off The Fantasy Radar To Close Out Season

The Denver Broncos defense/special teams should be avoided to close out their season in Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Not only is this a bad matchup against a strong offense, but the Broncos D will be missing key personnel to slow down Patrick Mahomes and Company. Head coach Vic Fangio announced […]

Tim Patrick - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick missed the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers due to COVID-19, but he'll be back on the field for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Patrick leads the Broncos receivers with five touchdowns on the year, but he's averaging […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was the unquestioned No. 1 receiver in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers with both Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick on the COVID-19 list. Sutton responded with one of his best games in a while, but it was still rather disappointing from a fantasy perspective, as he […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy will be back for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers while on the COVID-19 list. The talented route-runner has taken a step back in his sophomore season, although he has missed […]

Noah Fant - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (quadriceps) practiced in full Thursday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Fant caught six passes for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but the Broncos were missing receivers […]

Melvin Gordon III - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, thumb) practiced in full on Friday and has been cleared to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Gordon was removed from the final injury report. Although he had four fewer carries than rookie Javonte Williams in the Week […]

Javonte Williams - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs. For one last game this season, Williams will likely split the backfield workload with teammate Melvin Gordon III. The last time Denver faced KC, Williams had […]

DK Metcalf Doesn't Want To Leave Seattle

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf said he wants to sign a contract extension this offseason and remain in Seattle. "Of course. I'm not trying to leave. But we've got the Cardinals to focus on now," Metcalf said. Metcalf went through a cold spell from Weeks 10 to 15 after quarterback Russell Wilson returned from […]

James O'Shaughnessy On Track To Miss Another Game

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. After sitting out the Week 17 blowout loss to the New England Patriots, O'Shaughnessy looks primed to finish out the season on the sidelines in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Indianapolis Colts. The good […]

Ricky Seals-Jones, Curtis Samuel Absent Thursday

Washington Football Team tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (concussion) and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring) were both sidelined at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. It would be a surprise at this point if either player were to suit up on Sunday for the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Giants […]
