Graham Gano Back On The Practice Field

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (illness) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Gano should be just fine to kick this weekend against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys, but he's not a recommended fantasy starter at his position. The 34-year-old has been solid in the accuracy department by […]

Saquon Barkley Returns To Practice Thursday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was back at practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice. The Giants were likely just resting Barkley during their walkthrough practice on Wednesday. The 24-year-old isn't in any real danger of sitting out in Week 15 against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys. Barkley has seen double-digit carries in […]

Darren Waller Out Again In Week 15

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (back, knee) missed practice all week and will be out once again for this Saturday's game against the Cleveland Browns. Waller hasn't practiced or played since he initially injured his knee in the Thanksgiving game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 12, so it's not a huge surprise […]

Aaron Jones Not Present Thursday

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) is not present at practice on Thursday. Jones was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday, so this could be a setback for the 27-year-old after he sprained his right MCL back in Week 10. The Packers could also be resting their RB ahead of a Week […]

Aaron Rodgers Continues To Miss Practice

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (toe) missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Rodgers suffered a setback with his fractured pinkie toe in the Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears, but surgery is not in the cards and he plans to continue playing through it. Despite playing through the fractured […]

Seahawks Put Alex Collins On COVID-19 List

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, making it likely that he'll miss this Sunday's divisional clash against the Los Angeles Rams. If Collins is vaccinated, he'll need to be asymptomatic and return two negative tests 24 hour apart in order to be cleared to play this weekend. […]

Tyler Lockett Lands On COVID-19 List

The Seattle Seahawks placed wide receiver Tyler Lockett on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Even if Lockett is vaccinated, he'll need to be asymptomatic and return two negative tests 24 hours apart in order to be cleared to play this Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. It's a really tough break for the Seahawks and fantasy managers […]

David Njoku Activated From COVID-19 List

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku has officially been activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list and is back at practice on Thursday. It's good timing for the Browns, as Austin Hooper and Stephen Carlson are currently on the COVID list, as well as top receiver Jarvis Landry. Njoku could share tight end duties on Saturday against […]

Tony Pollard Gets Back On The Practice Field

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) returned to practice for the first time on Thursday since tearing his left plantar fascia on Dec. 2. Pollard stretched with his teammates and rejoined them on the field after warming up with the director of rehabilitation. He's likely to be listed as limited on the final injury […]

Lamar Jackson Not Practicing Again

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) is missing practice again on Thursday. The Ravens were hoping to have Jackson back on the field by Thursday doing some work, so it's starting to look like an uphill battle for him to play in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers after he suffered a low ankle […]

D'Andre Swift Misses Another Practice

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (shoulder) missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Swift has been unable to practice or play since suffering an AC joint sprain in his shoulder on Thanksgiving in Week 12. And with two straight missed practices so far this week, fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting him […]

James Conner Not Present Thursday

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ankle) was not present at practice on Thursday for the portion open to the media. If Conner ends up with a DNP on the final injury report, it will be his second straight missed practice of the week after needing an MRI exam on Tuesday. The Cardinals were calling […]

T.J. Hockenson Has Thumb Surgery, To Miss Rest Of Season

Detroit Lions Pro Bowl tight end T.J. Hockenson (thumb) underwent thumb surgery Thursday morning with renowned hand specialist Dr. Thomas Graham. Hockenson is expected to make a complete recovery in time for the offseason program, according to sources, but his 2021 season is now over. Well there it is. Hockenson missed the Week 14 loss […]

Javonte Williams Expected To Play Against Bengals

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams (knee) will not practice on Thursday, but head coach Vic Fangio expects Williams to play this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. Williams was limited in practice on Wednesday, so it looks as though the team is just resting their impressive rookie runner with a big game on tap […]

Bill Lazor, Sean Desai Put In COVID-19 Protocols

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that offensive coordinator Bill Lazor, defensive coordinator Sean Desai and special teams coordinator Chris Tabor have all been put in the league's COVID-19 protocols. Nagy will now likely handle the play-calling duties for Chicago's offense on Monday night when the team takes on the Minnesota Vikings at home. […]

Leonard Fournette Not Seen Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) wasn't present on Thursday at the portion of practice open to the media. If Fournette is indeed listed as a non-practice participant, it would be his second straight missed practice of the week. The 26-year-old is now in question to play in Week 15 against the New […]

Three More Washington Players Land On COVID-19 List

The Washington Football Team added safety Kamren Curl, center Keith Ismael and center Tyler Larsen to the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, and the team now has 21 total players on the list. On Wednesday, Washington added quarterback Kyle Allen, linebacker Milo Eifler, safety Darrick Forrest, defensive tackle Matt Ioannidis, tackle Cornelius Lucas, tight end Sammis […]

Michael Carter Expected To Play Sunday

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that running back Michael Carter (ankle) will come off Injured Reserve and is expected to play on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. The Jets opened Carter's 21-day practice window on Wednesday, and he got in a full practice. The Jets backfield is fully healthy, with Tevin Coleman […]

Austin Ekeler Not Expected To Have A Full Workload

While Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (ankle) is expected to play on Thursday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, sources are saying he won't see a full workload. Ekeler is a game-time decision for Week 15, but he's fully expected to be active. How much he actually plays is anyone's guess, but we […]

Limited Practice For Sammy Watkins

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Sammy Watkins (knee) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice session. Watkins played only 23 offensive snaps and failed to reel in either of his two targets in the Week 14 loss to the Cleveland Browns while playing through a knee injury. His limited practice to begin the week suggests that […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Limited Wednesday

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) and Malik Taylor (abdomen) were both limited in Wednesday's practice. Wideout Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) didn't take part in the practice. As long as Valdes-Scantling and Taylor don't suffer any setbacks in practice later this week, they should be good to go to suit up in Week […]

Aaron Jones Limited To Begin The Week

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (knee) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday. The Packers continue to limit Jones in practice after he sprained his right MCL in Week 10, but he should be able to play this weekend against the Baltimore Ravens. Jones did have two touchdowns (one rushing, one receiving) in […]

Travis Homer A Full Participant, Alex Collins Limited

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (hamstring) put in a full practice on Wednesday, while Alex Collins (abdomen) was limited. Homer has missed two of the team's last three games, but the Seahawks are optimistic that he will be active in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams. Collins should also be available, and veteran […]

DK Metcalf Misses Wednesday's Session

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (back, foot) was a spectator at practice on Wednesday. Also missing practice on Wednesday were wide receivers Dee Eskridge (foot) and Freddie Swain (ankle). Metcalf has been managing a foot injury for most of the year, but the back ailment is new. We still expect the 24-year-old to be […]

Javonte Williams On The Week 15 Injury Report

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams (knee) was listed on the Week 15 injury report after getting in a limited practice session. Melvin Gordon (hip, thumb) was also limited, but both backs are expected to be available for the Week 15 game this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. After Williams exploded for well over […]

Tee Higgins Limited In Wednesday's Practice

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle) put in a limited practice on Wednesday. Higgins was questionable to play last Sunday with an ankle injury, but he was active and reached the 100-yard mark for the third straight game in the overtime loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The 22-year-old should be able to play […]

James Robinson Limited, Carlos Hyde Misses Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel, knee) continued to be limited to open the practice week on Wednesday, while Carlos Hyde (concussion) didn't practice at all. Robinson continues to play through heel and knee injuries, and he should be fine to suit up this Sunday against the Houston Texans. The 23-year-old had just six […]

Brevin Jordan Limited In Practice Wednesday

Houston Texans rookie tight end Brevin Jordan (hand) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Jordan played through the hand injury in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks and had four catches for 26 yards and his third touchdown of the season on seven targets. The 21-year-old has seen 11 targets in […]

T.J. Watt Puts In A Limited Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (groin) was able to put in a limited practice on Wednesday. It's good news after the star pass-rusher was injured in last Thursday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings. As long as the 27-year-old doesn't suffer any setbacks the rest of the week, it seems like a good bet that he'll […]

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 […]
