Zach Ertz Will Play Saturday

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring) practiced in full on Thursday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday. Ertz was limited the other two days of practice, but he was never in any real danger of sitting out this weekend. With receiver DeAndre Hopkins […]

Lamar Jackson Misses Practice Again Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) missed practice yet again on Thursday, making it more likely that backup Tyler Huntley makes his second straight start in Week 16 against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Jackson suffered a sprained ankle in Week 14 and has yet to practice since. He still has one more day in […]

Equanimeous St. Brown Will Return In Week 16

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) practiced in full on Friday and will play in Week 16 against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. Receiver Amari Rodgers (shoulder) also wasn't on the final injury report, while Malik Taylor (shoulder) was ruled out after not practicing all week. St. Brown's return is worth mentioning […]

Aaron Jones Good To Go Against The Browns

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) was limited in practice all week but was removed from the final injury report for Week 16 against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. Jones has been listed on the injury report since injuring his knee in Week 10 and has yielded more work to AJ Dillon in […]

Aaron Rodgers Taken Off The Injury Report

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (toe) missed practice all week for the second straight week but won't carry an injury designation into the Week 16 game against the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. Rodgers is managing a broken pinkie toe on his foot, but he will continue to play through the issue before possibly having […]

Leonard Fournette Placed On Injured Reserve

In a move that was expected, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers placed running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, which will knock him out for the final three games of the regular season. Fantasy managers that have rode Fournette all this way sadly won't have him in the final push for a fantasy […]

Malik Hooker Tests Positive For COVID-19

Dallas Cowboys safety Malik Hooker tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, and his status is now in doubt for Sunday night's game against the Washington Football Team. It's terrible timing for Hooker, as he's coming off his best game of the season with six tackles (five solo), an interception and a pass defensed in 51% […]

Chris Jones Returns From COVID-19 List

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones is back from the Reserve/COVID-19 list, according to a source. The Chiefs are also getting cornerback Charvarius Ward back for their Week 16 meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Chiefs have been a pretty neutral defense against the run, but Jones' return in the middle of KC's defensive […]

JC Tretter Goes On COVID-19 List

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that center JC Tretter was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Tretter isn't officially ruled out, but this late in the week, it's unlikely that he'll clear the COVID protocols in time to play on Saturday against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. The 30-year-old's absence […]

Colts To Be Down Two Offensive Line Starters Saturday

Indianapolis Colts center Ryan Kelly (personal) and safety Andrew Sendejo (concussion) have been ruled out for Saturday's Christmas Day game against the Arizona Cardinals. Offensive guard Mark Glowinski was also added to the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday and will not be available on Saturday. Running back Jonathan Taylor, the NFL's leading rusher and the most […]

Kendall Lamm To Miss Thursday's Game

Tennessee Titans reserve offensive tackle Kendall Lamm announced on social media on Thursday that he tested positive for COVID-19 and will not play on Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Left tackle Taylor Lewan (back) and left guard Rodger Saffold were ruled out on Wednesday, so the Titans offensive line is going to be […]

Ravens Won't Give Extra Attention To Ja'Marr Chase

Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Wink Martindale said that they will not double/triple team Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase in Week 16 like they did for Packers receiver Davante Adams in Week 15. "Adams is one of the top two receivers in the league and he's not No. 2. Aaron Rodgers is a Hall […]

Emmanuel Sanders Returns To Full Practice

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday. Sanders is making good progress from a knee injury that kept him out of last week's win over the Carolina Panthers. Barring a setback on Friday, Sanders should be able to return in Week […]

Myles Garrett 50-50 To Play Saturday

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said he considers defensive end Myles Garrett (groin) to be 50-50 to play in Week 16 against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday on Christmas Day. Garrett wants to play badly, but the team will evaluate him over the next couple of days. The All-Pro pass-rusher didn't practice on […]

Jarvis Landry To Come Off COVID-19 List Friday

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that wide receiver Jarvis Landry, offensive tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. and defensive tackle Malik McDowell will come off the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday when their 10-day quarantine period expires. Quarterback Baker Mayfield will as well, so both Mayfield and Landry are expected to start in Week 16 against […]

Browns Plan To Start Baker Mayfield On Saturday

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said the plan is for quarterback Baker Mayfield to start on Saturday against the Green Bay Packers. Mayfield remains on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, but because of the 10-day rule, he'll be eligible to come off the list on Friday, regardless of testing. The Browns will be getting wide receiver […]

Rams Designate Cam Akers To Return From Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Rams designated running back Cam Akers (Achilles) to return from Injured Reserve on Thursday. The Rams were never ruling out the chance that Akers could return this year after tearing his Achilles in July, even if it seemed like a long shot. While the 22-year-old is now eligible to be activated from […]

Dodgers, Cody Bellinger Agree To One-Year Deal

The Los Angeles Dodgers and outfielder Cody Bellinger agreed to a one-year, $17 million deal to avoid salary arbitration before the league's Dec. 1 lockout, according to sources familiar with the agreement. The 26-year-old is coming off the worst season of his career, slashing .165/.240/.302 with 10 home runs in 95 games, but he played […]

D.J. Moore Misses Another Practice

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday with a hamstring injury. Head coach Matt Rhule said on Wednesday that Moore is likely to be a game-time decision for the Week 16 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Moore's fantasy managers would rest a little easier if […]

A.J. Brown Coming Off Injured Reserve To Play Thursday

The Tennessee Titans are activating wide receiver A.J. Brown (chest) from Injured Reserve in order to play on Thursday night against the San Francisco 49ers. Brown was designated to return from IR earlier this week and didn't have any setbacks in practice. So the Titans will have both Brown and Julio Jones (hamstring) active in […]

Rondale Moore Set To Be Game-Time Decision

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that rookie wide receiver Rondale Moore (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday. Moore underwent an MRI exam on his ankle to begin the week and didn't practice at all, so we'd be surprised if he suits up on Christmas […]

James Conner To Be A Game-Time Decision

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that running back James Conner (heel) will be a game-time decision on Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts. Conner missed practice all week, so he's on the wrong side of questionable, but it doesn't mean he won't be active on Christmas Day. The 26-year-old will officially be listed as […]

No Sign Of Jamison Crowder At Practice Thursday

There is no sign of New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) at the start of practice on Thursday. If Crowder is given a DNP, it will be his second missed practice of the week, which doesn't bode well for his status in Week 16 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's a new injury for […]

Nelson Agholor Remains Sidelined At Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor (concussion) missed practice for the second day of the week on Thursday. If Agholor cannot clear the league's concussion protocol, the Patriots could be pretty short-handed at the position in a big game against the division-rival Buffalo Bills. Kendrick Bourne, the team's leading receiver with 667 yards, remains […]

No Practice For Rhamondre Stevenson Thursday

New England Patriots rookie running back Rhamondre Stevenson (illness) wasn't at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Stevenson is in danger of missing the big divisional matchup against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday if he cannot get back on the field on Friday. Damien Harris (hamstring) has missed the last two games, but […]

Dalvin Cook Put On COVID-19 List, Out For Week 16

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Cook is unvaccinated, so he's not expected to play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Unvaccinated players must quarantine for 10 days for a positive test and five days if they are a close contact. The hits just keep coming […]

Kadarius Toney Back From The COVID-19 List

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney, linebacker Oshane Ximines and safety J.R. Reed were cleared to return from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, according to head coach Joe Judge. Several more Giants players on the COVID list, including cornerback Adoree' Jackson, could be cleared on Friday. Toney hasn't played since Week 11 due […]

Elijah Moore Could Return Next Week

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Elijah Moore (quadriceps) is expected to be back for the final two games of the regular season. Moore was moved from Injured Reserve to the COVID-19 list on Wednesday, but as long as he clears the COVID protocols, he could be available to fantasy managers in Week 17. In […]

Antonio Gibson Not At Practice Thursday

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is not at practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Gibson injured his toe in Tuesday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, although he was able to return to finish out the contest. But on a short week, there's a chance Gibson won't be ready for […]

Leonard Fournette Out Again Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Fournette tweaked his hamstring in the Week 15 loss to the New Orleans Saints and was quickly ruled out. The Bucs are saying that he could miss one to two games, although they have yet to […]
