Mets Aggressively Pursuing Max Scherzer

The New York Mets are aggressively pursuing free-agent starter Max Scherzer, who is expected to make his decision before the impending Dec. 1 lockout, but they may need to move to a Plan B given his known preferences. Scherzer limited his choices to California teams as a trade piece last summer, so the Mets know […]

Blue Jays Add Yimi Garcia To Bullpen

The Toronto Blue Jays agreed to a two-year, $11 million deal with right-handed reliever Yimi Garcia on Saturday. The deal includes a club option for the 2023 season.

Free-agent right-hander Corey Kluber agreed to a one-year deal, pending a physical, with the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday, according to sources.

When he was available, Kluber was solid, though, […]

Dave Gettleman Likely In His Last Year With Giants

The New York Giants fired offensive coordinator Jason Garrett earlier this week, and general manager Dave Gettleman, who has run the team's personnel department since 2018, is unlikely to return in 2022, according to sources with knowledge of the situation and those with deep knowledge of the league. The Giants will have two first-round picks […]

Jordan Akins A Healthy Scratch Again In Week 12

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins is a healthy scratch in Week 12 against the New York Jets for the second straight week. It appears the 29-year-old has been passed on the depth chart by rookie Brevin Jordan with Pharaoh Brown back to full health. The Texans also have Antony Auclair at the position. Akins […]

Nico Collins Will Play Against Jets

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Nico Collins (hip) is active for Week 12 against the New York Jets after being questionable on the team's final injury report. Collins popped up on the injury report late in the week, but his hip injury wasn't serious enough to keep him from playing on Sunday. The Jets defense […]

Corey Davis Officially Out On Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis (groin), who was downgraded to doubtful on Saturday, is officially inactive for Week 12 against the Houston Texans. It's a blow to the Jets offense with rookie quarterback Zach Wilson (knee) finally returning from his PCL sprain. Davis and Wilson had developed some nice chemistry earlier in the […]

Hunter Henry, Jonnu Smith Active Against Titans

New England Patriots tight ends Hunter Henry (neck) and Jonnu Smith (shoulder) are both active for the Week 12 battle against the Tennessee Titans, as expected. Both players were listed as questionable on the final injury report but were expected to play after practicing all week. Henry and Smith will continue to split playing time […]

J.J. Taylor A Healthy Scratch Sunday

New England Patriots running back J.J. Taylor is a healthy scratch for the Week 12 contest against the Tennessee Titans. Running backs Damien Harris (neck) and Rhamondre Stevenson (knee), who were questionable for Sunday, are both active and should share most of New England's backfield touches against the Titans. It will be Taylor's second straight […]

Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson Both Active

New England Patriots running backs Damien Harris (neck) and Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) are both active for the Week 12 meeting with the Tennessee Titans.

Tennessee Titans tight end Geoff Swaim (concussion) is active for the Week 12 game against the New England Patriots. Swaim only has 19 receptions for 131 yards and two touchdowns on 26 targets in 10 games for the Titans this year, but Tennessee is desperate for playmakers with receivers A.J. Brown (chest), Julio Jones (hamstring) […]

Auden Tate Officially Out Against Steelers

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate (thigh) has officially been ruled out for the Week 12 contest against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Tate was doubtful heading into Sunday's game, so it's no surprise that he'll miss yet another game. The 24-year-old has not seen action since Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens and hasn't been […]

Joe Haden Ruled Out For Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (foot) has been ruled out for Week 12 against the Cincinnati Bengals. It will be Haden's second straight missed game, but the good news for the Steelers defense is that they will be getting linebacker T.J.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder, foot, groin), who has been struggling with injuries in recent weeks, is finally able to make plays with his legs again and is showing signs of looking like himself, according to those who see him every day.

49ers Activate Dre Greenlaw From Injured Reserve

The San Francisco 49ers have activated linebacker Dre Greenlaw (groin) from Injured Reserve, and he will be eligible to play on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.

Broncos Defense Gets Bradley Chubb Back

The Denver Broncos officially activated outside linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, and he will be eligible to play on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. If he's active this weekend, head coach Vic Fangio said the team will monitor his snap count, so he won't be worth playing in IDP […]

Ben Skowronek Ruled Out For Week 12

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Ben Skowronek (back) has been ruled out for the Week 12 game against the Green Bay Packers. Skowronek was in line for more work in the team's last game in Week 10 with Robert Woods (knee) out for the year, but the 24-year-old caught just one of his five targets […]

Thaddeus Moss Elevated To Active Roster

The Cincinnati Bengals elevated tight end Thaddeus Moss from their practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's game against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Moss will be active for the first time in his career in Week 12, but it remains to be seen if he'll actually get on the field against Pittsburgh. The 23-year-old […]

Adam Humphries Questionable For Monday Night

Washington Football Team wide receiver Adam Humphries (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Humphries was limited in practice this week, so he should have a good chance at suiting up to close out Week 12 action. The 28-year-old has had more opportunities as the team's No. 2 receiver […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Doubtful For Week 12

Washington Football Team tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (hip) has been listed as doubtful to play on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12. Seals-Jones also missed last week's game.

Curtis Samuel Likely To Play On Monday Night

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) is looking likely to play on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 12.

Logan Thomas Expected To Be Activated To Play Monday

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas (hamstring) is expected to be activated from Injured Reserve and play on Monday against the Seattle Seahawks. However, Thomas will be on a pitch count if he's able to play in Week 12. The 30-year-old has been out since Week 4, so it should come as no surprise […]

Broncos Defense With A Tough Task In Week 12

The Denver Broncos defense is coming off their bye into a tough matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. The trade for linebacker Kenny Young has injected some life into this defense after injuries wrecked the position and the Broncos traded All-Pro pass-rusher Von Miller to the Los Angeles Rams. Young has 11 tackles in […]

Brandon McManus - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus has had an up-and-down season as a fantasy option in Denver's inconsistent offense. He has made 85.7% of his 21 field-goal tries, which ties a career high, and he's only missed one of his 19 extra-point attempts. McManus has missed just four kicks total, but he checks in as the […]

Noah Fant - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant missed the Week 9 upset win over the Dallas Cowboys after testing positive for COVID-19, but he returned in Week 10 and had a respectable five catches for 59 yards on six targets in the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Fant last found the end zone in Week 6 […]

Tim Patrick - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick was recently signed to a three-year, $30 million contract extension and was also named to ESPN's all-underrated team for 2021. Patrick has kept a snap rate over 90% despite Jerry Jeudy's return in Week 8, and he ranks fourth in receiving DVOA this year while averaging 9.9 yards per […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 12 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton signed a four-year contract extension worth $60.8 million during the bye week. The 26-year-old has proven to be an excellent deep threat on the outside and has bounced back from his ACL tear in 2020, but he has taken a back seat in the offense ever since Jerry Jeudy […]
