The Philadelphia Eagles activated tight end Tyree Jackson (back) from Injured Reserve on Saturday and also elevated running back Jordan Howard and wide receiver John Hightower from the practice squad to the active roster.

Mitchell Trubisky Lands On COVID-19 List

The Buffalo Bills placed quarterback Mitchell Trubisky on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday. Trubisky will miss the Week 9 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, so the Bills will need to add another QB to their active roster to serve as Josh Allen's backup in Week 9 on Sunday. Davis Webb is currently the only signal-caller […]

Ben Roethlisberger Will Play Monday

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (shoulder), who popped up on the team's injury report on Friday with a shoulder injury, will play on Monday night against the Chicago Bears in Week 9. Big Ben was taken off the final injury report on Saturday after getting in a full practice, […]

Tyrod Taylor Officially Activated, Will Start Against Miami

The Houston Texans officially activated quarterback Tyrod Taylor (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, and he is in line to start in Week 9 against the Miami Dolphins. Taylor's return means rookie Davis Mills will head back to the bench. In a corresponding move, linebacker Christian Kirksey (thumb) was placed on IR after having thumb […]

Sam Darnold Clears Concussion Protocol, Still Questionable

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) has cleared the league's concussion protocol, but he remains questionable due to a shoulder injury and is expected to be a game-time decision in Week 9 against the New England Patriots. Darnold got off to a decent start in his first season in Carolina, but he's looked much more […]

George Kittle, Jeff Wilson Jr., Robbie Gould Activated

The San Francisco 49ers officially activated tight end George Kittle (calf) and kicker Robbie Gould (groin) from Injured Reserve and activated running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (knee) from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday. In corresponding moves, the team placed defensive end Dee Ford on IR and waived defensive lineman Zach Kerr. Linebacker […]

Kyler Murray Won't Play If He Can't Play At High Level In Pocket

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle), who will be a game-time decision in Week 9 against the San Francisco 49ers, will not play on Sunday unless he can function at a "high level" from the pocket, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury. Murray's left ankle sprain has been progressing, but he didn't practice all week. […]

Khalil Mack To Miss Another Game

Chicago Bears linebacker Khalil Mack (foot) has been ruled out for his second straight game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night. Defensive back Eddie Jackson (hamstring) is also doubtful to play, while linebacker Alec Ogletree (ankle) is questionable after missing practice all week. There were reports that Mack might land on Injured Reserve, but […]

Darnell Mooney Questionable For Monday Night

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Saturday and is questionable for Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night. Mooney popped up on the injury report on Friday with an injury that he's been dealing with off and on in 2021. The 24-year-old […]

Good Chance That David Montgomery Plays On Monday

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that "there's a really good chance" that running back David Montgomery (knee) is activated from Injured Reserve and plays on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bears could use him back with Damien Williams (knee) already ruled out for Week 9. Montgomery has been on IR since […]

Panthers Activate Christian McCaffrey From Injured Reserve

The Carolina Panthers activated running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday with hopes that he'll play in Week 9 against the New England Patriots. McCaffrey will go through a pre-game workout just to be sure. It's great news that McCaffrey is coming off IR after being out since Week 3, but now […]

White Sox Exercise Craig Kimbrel's Option

As expected, the Chicago White Sox exercised their $16 million team option on relief pitcher Craig Kimbrel on Saturday, according to a source familiar with the situation. Kimbrel had a huge bounce-back season in 2021 after he had a 5.28 ERA while walking 7.0 hitters per nine innings in 18 appearances over 15 1/3 innings […]

Broncos Defense Trending Down After Trade Of Von Miller

The Denver Broncos defense did finally create two turnovers in the Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team, but they head into a Week 9 meeting with the Dallas Cowboys -- an offense that leads the league in yards per game -- after just trading All-Pro pass-rusher Von Miller to the Los Angeles Rams. […]

Brandon McManus - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus finally missed his first kick of the 2021 season in the Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team. Accuracy hasn't been the problem for him this year, it's been Denver's lack of efficiency on offense, mainly in converting third downs to sustain drives into enemy territory. The Broncos are […]

Browns Put Jack Conklin On Injured Reserve

The Cleveland Browns placed right tackle Jack Conklin (elbow) on Injured Reserve on Saturday and activated fullback Andy Janovich and center Nick Harris from IR in corresponding moves. Conklin is expected back this season, but he'll now be forced to miss the team's next three games after dislocating his left elbow in the Week 8 […]

Tim Patrick - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Don't count on Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick leading the team in receiving in Week 9 against the Dallas Cowboys like he did last week against the Washington Football Team when he caught all three of his targets for 64 yards. At best, he's a WR4/flex consideration in deeper leagues, even with tight end […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy made his return last Sunday for the first time since suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 1, and he caught all four of his targets for 39 yards against the Washington Football Team. On the bright side, he led the team in catches. However, no Broncos pass-catcher had […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton did not have a good game in Jerry Jeudy's return from a high ankle sprain in the Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team, catching two of his four targets for only 40 yards. However, no Broncos player had more than four targets with quarterback Teddy Bridgewater spreading […]

Javonte Williams - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

The Denver Broncos rushing attack will have their work cut out for them in Week 9 against a Dallas Cowboys defense that is allowing only 88.6 rushing yards per game this season. And if the Broncos fall behind early to one of the best offenses in the NFL, they could be forced to abandon the […]

Melvin Gordon III - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon had a two-touchdown game in the Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team, but he once again narrowly out-snapped and out-touched rookie Javonte Williams. The Broncos are unlikely to punish Gordon for a late lost fumble, though, so expect both backs to continue alternating offensive series this Sunday […]

Teddy Bridgewater - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater ended a streak of three straight games with an interception in the Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team, but he completed only 19 passes for 213 yards and one touchdown. Bridgewater has only two 300-yard passing games in 2021 with 13 touchdowns and five interceptions, making him the […]

Kenny Golladay, John Ross Expected To Play

New York Giants wide receivers Kenny Golladay (knee) and John Ross (quadriceps), who are both listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders, are expected to play on Sunday as long as they don't suffer a setback during pre-game workouts. Golladay has been out since hyperextending his knee in Week 5, but […]

Dusty Baker Returning To Astros In 2022

The Houston Astros announced on Friday that they signed manager Dusty Baker to a one-year contract extension for the 2022 season after he came just two wins shy of winning the World Series this year. Next season will mark the 72-year-old's 25th season as a manager in professional baseball and his third with the Astros […]

Seiya Suzuki To Be Posted This Offseason

Japanese star right fielder Seiya Suzuki will be posted this offseason by the Hiroshima Toyo Carp of Nippon Professional Baseball and made available to major league clubs, according to a source. The 27-year-old will compete with Starling Marte as one of this winter's top available free-agent outfielders after he's been a five-time All-Star in Japan. […]

Giants Decline Johnny Cueto's Option

The San Francisco Giants declined starting pitcher Johnny Cueto's $22 million option for the 2022 season on Friday, making him a free agent. Instead, the veteran right-hander will receive a $5 million buyout. As he nears the back end of his career, Cueto has become a back-of-the-rotation starter after missing most of the 2018 and […]

Javon Kinlaw Undergoes ACL Reconstruction

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (knee) recently underwent a successful ACL reconstruction on his injured right knee to fix chronic changes in his knee. The 49ers are hoping that the 24-year-old first-round pick in 2020 can return to full health for the start of the 2022 campaign. Kinlaw was working through knee issues […]

Damien Williams Trending In The Wrong Direction

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) missed his second straight practice of the week on Friday. If Williams is unable to get on the practice field on Saturday, he's unlikely to play on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers after he was injured in the Week 8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Initially […]

Darnell Mooney Pops Up On Injury Report Friday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) was added to the team's Week 9 injury report on Friday after he got in a limited practice. Mid-week injuries are usually never a good thing, but the fact that Mooney was still able to practice on a limited basis is a good sign. It's an injury that […]

Chris Boswell Should Be Good To Go For Monday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell (concussion) was a full participant at practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday. Boswell suffered a concussion on a fake field-goal attempt in the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns, but it looks like he has cleared the league's concussion protocol, and he should be fine to play […]

Eric Ebron Returns To Limited Practice Friday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron (ankle) managed to get in a limited practice on Friday after sitting out Thursday's session. Ebron was inactive for the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns, but he seems to be trending in the right direction to make it back on Monday night against the Chicago Bears. Even […]
