Not Looking Good For Corey Davis In Week 8

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said "it's not looking good" for wide receiver Corey Davis (hip) to play in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals after he suffered a hip flexor injury in practice on Thursday. Saleh said the team is still holding out hope that Davis can play on Sunday, but it's […]

Dak Prescott In Danger Of Missing Week 8?

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (calf) was sore on Friday after ramping up the intensity in practice on Thursday, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. "It's more than just one game. We're obviously in our seventh game, so there is a ton of football left to play," McCarthy said on a decision on Prescott's status […]

Miles Sanders Lands On Injured Reserve

The Philadelphia Eagles are placing running back Miles Sanders (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Friday, according to a source. Sanders will now miss the next three games after suffering a low ankle sprain in the Week 7 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, but he should be back soon after he's eligible to return. The […]

Broncos Defense Has Become Their Weakness

The Denver Broncos defense was being heralded as elite after they started 3-0 against teams at the bottom of the league in terms of talent. Through seven games, they rank 26th in defensive DVOA at 9.1 percent. They rank 26th in run defense and just allowed well over 100 yards rushing to a third-string running […]

Brandon McManus - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

As the Denver Broncos offense goes, so does kicker Brandon McManus. The strong-legged kicker was a fantasy rock in the first three weeks when Denver was beating up on weak opponents. But during their four-game losing streak against better competition, McManus and the Broncos offense have struggled to move the ball consistently. As such, the […]

Noah Fant - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant heads into a Week 8 matchup against the Washington Football Team as the 10th-ranked fantasy tight end through seven weeks with 35 receptions on his 49 targets for 312 yards and three touchdowns. Fant has the sixth-most targets among TEs, the fifth-most catches and ranks eighth in yards, so […]

Tim Patrick - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dating back to last season, Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick has been a reliable and steady contributor among injuries to the team's other wideouts. The 27-year-old has a career-high 69.2% catch rate on 39 targets through seven games, hauling in 27 passes for 360 yards and three touchdowns. However, he had his worst game […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos second-year wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle) is expected to return from Injured Reserve and play in Week 8 against the Washington Football after suffering a high ankle sprain in the season opener. The 22-year-old had six catches (seven targets) for 72 yards in just over a half in Week 1 before his injury, […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Can Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton remain on the WR2 map in Week 8 against the Washington Football Team with Jerry Jeudy (ankle) set to return from Injured Reserve? In the last three weeks, Sutton ranks fourth in the NFL in targets (30), catches (20) and yards (282), while he's eighth with two TDs. […]

Melvin Gordon III - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III saw the same number of touches (11) as rookie Javonte Williams in last Thursday's loss to the Cleveland Browns, and they both had touchdown receptions, but Williams out-gained Gordon 26-20. Through seven weeks, Gordon has been slightly more productive in PPR leagues, but Williams has been the more […]

Javonte Williams - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams has been more explosive than backfield mate Melvin Gordon through seven weeks, but his fantasy ceiling remains capped by the fact that the two continue to split the workload nearly evenly on a weekly basis, and that doesn't figure to change in Week 8 against the Washington Football Team. […]

Padres Hire Bob Melvin As New Skipper

The San Diego Padres agreed to a three-year deal on Thursday for Bob Melvin to be their next skipper after they let Jayce Tingler go after a disappointing 2021 season in which the team finished 79-83 despite entering the season with World Series aspirations, according to sources. The Oakland Athletics had picked up Melvin's 2022 […]

Andrus Peat Needs Surgery For Torn Pectoral

New Orleans Saints offensive guard Andrus Peat (pectoral) will undergo season-ending surgery on his torn pectoral on Friday, according to a source. Peat suffered the torn pectoral early on in the Monday night win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 7. The injuries continue for Peat, as he's never played a full season in the […]

J.J. Watt Tore His Labrum, Bicep And Rotator Cuff

Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt (shoulder), who will have season-ending surgery, actually tore his labrum, bicep and rotator cuff and suffered a dislocated shoulder in the Week 7 win over the Houston Texans, his old team. It's a huge loss for the Cardinals defense, as Watt was playing some of his best football in […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. Still In Concussion Protocol

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Marshall suffered his head injury in Week 6 and missed the Week 7 loss to the New York Giants. Unless he makes some big improvements and gets back on the […]

DeVante Parker Says He's Feeling Better

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring, shoulder), who put in his second straight limited practice on Thursday, said he feels "good" but stopped short of saying he will definitely play in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. Parker has missed the last three games and said, "We have to wait and see what happens." […]

Julio Jones Still Missing Thursday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Jones missed Weeks 4 and 5 with a bad hammy and continues to deal with the injury heading into a Week 8 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. The 32-year-old has a history of nagging lower-body injuries and probably won't […]

Jonathan Taylor, Nyheim Hines Good To Go

Indianapolis Colts running backs Jonathan Taylor (ribs) and Nyheim Hines (ribs) both practiced in full on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. The Tennessee Titans, Indy's Week 8 opponent, have allowed just 233 rushing yards and one rushing TD on 41 attempts in the last three weeks, but Taylor is an elite RB1 asset in […]

T.Y. Hilton Returns To Practice Thursday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing practice on Wednesday. Hilton made his season debut in Week 6 by catching all four of his targets for 80 yards, but he missed last week's win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night. The limited practice gives […]

Teddy Bridgewater Dealing With Oblique Injury

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (oblique) was added to the Week 8 injury report, but he was able to get in a full practice on Thursday. The oblique is a new injury for Bridgewater, but it doesn't look like it will keep him from starting in a Week 8 matchup against the Washington Football Team. […]

D.K. Metcalf, Alex Collins Miss Practice Thursday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (foot) and running back Alex Collins (groin) were downgraded in practice on Thursday and were listed as not practicing. Metcalf practiced in full on Wednesday, and it's likely that the Seahawks were just resting him on Thursday. Collins was limited on Wednesday. Metcalf has eight catches on 12 targets […]

Jaylon Smith, Kevin King Inactive Thursday Night

Green Bay Packers linebacker Jaylon Smith and cornerback Kevin King (shoulder) are among the team's inactives on Thursday night against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 8. King will be missing his third straight game, and the team will also be without top cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder), so Arizona's passing attack could have a nice game […]

DeAndre Hopkins Officially Active Thursday Night

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is officially active on Thursday night against the Green Bay Packers. Hopkins didn't practice at all this week, but he should still be the top target for quarterback Kyler Murray against a Packers defense that remains without top cornerbacks Jaire Alexander (shoulder) and Kevin King (shoulder). The bad […]

Austin Ekeler Added To Thursday's Injury Report

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hip) was added to the Week 8 injury report on Thursday after he missed practice. Ekeler was a full participant in Wednesday's session, so this is pretty concerning. He comes off the team's Week 7 bye as the RB3 in terms of overall fantasy points with 73 carries […]

Jamaal Williams Limited By Thigh Issue Thursday

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams (thigh) popped up on the Week 8 injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice with a thigh injury after practicing in full on Wednesday. This is a new injury for Williams, so his practice status on Friday will be telling heading into a Week 8 matchup with […]

Baker Mayfield Making Good Progress

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) looked good on short and intermediate routes again in practice on Thursday and is making progress towards starting in Week 8 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Mayfield missed last Thursday's win over the Denver Broncos with a fully torn labrum and fractured humerus bone in his left, non-throwing shoulder. […]

Eric Ebron Added To Week 8 Injury Report

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron (hamstring) was added to the team's Week 8 injury report on Thursday after he put in a limited practice. Ebron has become the No. 2 tight end for Pittsburgh with rookie Pat Freiermuth now in the mix. The rookie leads the Steelers tight ends with 18 catches on 20 […]

Chase Claypool Good To Go For Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool (hamstring) was practicing in full on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Claypool's hamstring is still bothering him a bit coming out of the bye week, but he should be just fine for a Week 8 matchup with the division-rival Cleveland Browns. He's coming off a disappointing […]

Tevin Coleman Misses Another Practice

New York Jets running back Tevin Coleman (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. After coming into the season expected to be the Jets primary running back, Coleman has fallen to No. 3 on the running back depth chart behind Michael Carter and Ty Johnson. The 28-year-old also missed last week's loss […]

Corey Davis Added To Injury Report Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis (hip) was added to the Week 8 injury report on Thursday when he practiced on a limited basis. Mid-week injuries are usually never a good thing, but the fact that Davis was at least limited is good news. More worrisome for Davis' fantasy value moving forward will be […]
