James O'Shaughnessy Won't Play Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 17 against the New England Patriots. The Jaguars tight end depth will really be tested this week, as Dan Arnold, Chris Manhertz and Jacob Hollister are all on the COVID-19 list. The good news is that the […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Doubtful, Trey Lance Expected To Start

The San Francisco 49ers listed quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) as doubtful to play in Week 17 against the Houston Texans after he didn't practice all week. Rookie Trey Lance is now expected to make his second start of the season with Garoppolo dealing with a Grade 3 thumb sprain. In his lone start in his […]

Jack Doyle Questionable To Play Sunday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (ankle, knee) returned to a full practice on Friday but is questionable to play in Week 17 against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Listed As Questionable

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) was unable to practice all week but is listed as questionable for Week 17 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Chargers Put Jared Cook On COVID-19 List

The Los Angeles Chargers placed tight end Jared Cook on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday and he will be out for Week 17 against the division-rival Denver Broncos.

Kadarius Toney, John Ross Ruled Out

New York Giants wide receivers Kadarius Toney (shoulder), John Ross (knee) and Collin Johnson (hamstring) have been ruled out for Week 17 against the Chicago Bears. Darius Slayton was put on the Reserve/COVID-19 list earlier this week and Sterling Shepard, C.J. Board and Dante Pettis are on Injured Reserve, so Kenny Golladay is the only […]

Andy Dalton To Start Against Giants

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy confirmed on Friday that quarterback Andy Dalton will start in Week 17 against the New York Giants. With rookie Justin Fields (ankle) listed as questionable, Nick Foles, who started and got the win over the Seattle Seahawks last week, will be Dalton's backup.

The Denver Broncos placed outside linebacker Bradley Chubb, cornerback Bryce Callahan, linebacker Jonathan Cooper, safety Caden Sterns, defensive lineman Mike Purcell, cornerback Mike Ford, linebacker Andre Mintze and linebacker Stephen Weatherly on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday.

Jerry Jeudy Lands On COVID-19 List

The Denver Broncos placed wide receiver Jerry Jeudy on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, and receiver Courtland Sutton could be added as well. In addition to Jeudy, the Broncos placed receiver Tyrie Cleveland on the list.

Broncos Defense One To Avoid In Week 17

The Denver Broncos defense has been one of the more solid units around the league in the NFL this year. They are currently tied with the New England Patriots for fewest points allowed per game at 17.3, but they check in at No. 20 in overall fantasy points with just 19 total takeaways (six fumble […]

Brandon McManus - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus enters Week 17 action against the Los Angeles Chargers as the No. 18 kicker in total fantasy points. He's made 82.1% of his 28 field-goal attempts this season, but he's attempted only 30 extra points in 15 games, which ranks tied for 19th in the league. McManus has mostly been […]

Akiem Hicks Back From COVID-19 List

The Chicago Bears removed defensive tackle Akiem Hicks from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, and he will be available to play in Week 17 against the New York Giants. Hicks went on the COVID list last Thursday and was forced to miss the Week 16 win over the Seattle Seahawks. The Bears star defensive tackle […]

Noah Fant - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant has become more of a TE2 for fantasy managers down the stretch in Denver's low-scoring offense, especially with quarterback Drew Lock set to make his second start in place of the injured Teddy Bridgewater (concussion). However, Fant could have some streaming appeal at his position in Week 17 against […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had one of his better games of late in the Week 16 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, going for four catches on five targets for 33 yards. It just goes to show how bad Sutton has been in the second half of the season. In his last eight […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 17 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is an excellent route-runner, but the 22-year-old has seen his role diminish towards the end of his second season in the NFL. "It would mean a lot to the whole offense," quarterback Drew Lock said of Jeudy having a day. "You've got a playmaker like that, when you get […]

Antonio Brown Will Be A Game-Time Decision

Tampa Bay Buccaneers interim head coach Harold Goodwin said that wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) "tweaked" his ankle in practice this week but still has a chance to play in Week 17 against the New York Jets. The Bucs will decide on Brown's status on Sunday morning. It comes after Brown missed Thursday's practice. Fantasy […]

Jordan Howard Listed As Questionable For Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that running back Jordan Howard (neck) is questionable for Week 17 against the Washington Football Team. "He's still got two more days," Sirianni said. The fact that Howard returned to practice on Thursday, albeit in a limited fashion, should mean that he's on the right side of questionable […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Activated From COVID-19 List

The Tennessee Titans activated wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. However, veteran Julio Jones, linebacker Jayon Brown, defensive lineman Denico Autry, tackle Kendall Lamm, defensive back Buster Skrine and outside linebacker Bud Dupree remain on the list heading into Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins. If Jones isn't able to clear […]

Russell Wilson Vague On His Future In Seattle

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is hoping that Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions won't be the last time he plays at Lumen Field as the team's QB. Wilson has been a franchise cornerstone since he was drafted in 2012 and helped the team win a Super Bowl title. Since returning from a finger injury […]

Cam Akers May Not Play Against Ravens

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (Achilles) has made a quick recovery from a torn Achilles in the summer, but his timetable for a return to games slowed on Thursday. "And so, I would say the Niners game, or the playoffs is what we've always kind of pinpointed as the potential spots," head coach […]

Tyler Huntley Trending Toward Starting In Week 17

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley is trending toward starting in Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams. Lamar Jackson (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice on Friday after he was seen limping badly during a limited practice on Wednesday. Huntley returned from the COVID-19 list on Thursday and looks to be in line […]

Mike Evans Activated From COVID-19 List

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers officially activated wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. It's a step in the right direction for Evans, but a hamstring injury suffered in Week 15 could still keep him out for a second straight game, especially since he hasn't been able to practice with the team […]

D'Andre Swift Ready To Go For Week 17

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that running back D'Andre Swift (shoulder) is ready to go for Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks and looks fresh. Swift has practiced in full this week and is expected to be removed from the final injury report. He has been out since suffering a shoulder sprain on […]

Marlon Mack Activated From COVID-19 List

The Indianapolis Colts activated running back Marlon Mack and safety Jahleel Addae from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Mack has been a healthy scratch since Week 8, so there's a good chance he won't be active on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders despite being activated. The Colts have been running with MVP candidate Jonathan […]

Elijah Moore Won't Return This Week

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Elijah Moore (quadriceps) will not return in Week 17 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but head coach Robert Saleh said the team is still hopeful that Moore can return for the regular season finale. Moore remains on Injured Reserve and will miss his fourth straight game. He's also on […]

Emmanuel Sanders Questionable For Sunday

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) will be questionable to play in Week 17 against the Atlanta Falcons. Sanders was held out of practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday, but the Bills were likely just resting the 34-year-old veteran. Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis are back […]

Sean Mannion Expected To Start Against Packers

Minnesota Vikings backup quarterback Sean Mannion is expected to come off the Reserve/COVID-19 list and start on Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers, according to a source.

Jaguars Get Laviska Shenault Jr., Key Defenders Back

The Jacksonville Jaguars activated wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr., outside linebacker Josh Allen and linebacker Myles Jack, among others, from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday.

Jared Goff Doubtful To Play In Week 17

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that quarterback Jared Goff (knee) is "doubtful" to play on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. Goff missed last week's game due to COVID-19, but he's in line to miss his second straight game due to a knee injury that he suffered in the Week 15 […]

Antonio Gibson Placed On COVID-19 List

The Washington Football Team placed running back Antonio Gibson and left guard Ereck Flowers on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. There's a chance that Gibson and Flowers test out of the COVID protocols, but it's highly unlikely that will happen before Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Fantasy managers that were planning on starting Gibson […]
