Broncos Defense An Attractive Option Against Raiders

The Denver Broncos defense allowed a season-high 34 points in Week 6 against the Las Vegas Raiders. But since then, they've stiffened up considerably and have allowed 22 or more points only twice in the eight games since that loss to the Raiders. In the other six games, they haven't allowed more than 17 points. […]

Brandon McManus - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus has finished most weeks outside of the top 12 at his position, and he enters the Week 16 game against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders as the No. 18 kicker in overall fantasy points. It's just hard to trust McManus from a fantasy perspective in an offense that scores only […]

Noah Fant - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant is due, and that's an understatement. Perhaps it'll come with quarterback Drew Lock making his first start of the season in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Lock does have an affinity for throwing to his tight ends, but the problem is that Albert Okwuegbunam might be Lock's […]

Tim Patrick - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick has five touchdowns on the year, which is only one shy of his career-high set last season. He's also one of the most reliable and trustworthy pass-catchers in the NFL and has caught 63.4% of the passes thrown his way on 71 targets. Patrick was the recipient of quarterback […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy picked the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues in Week 15 to have his worst game of the season when he failed to catch any of his four targets in the loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. None of Denver's pass-catchers have been reliable in starting lineups […]

Drew Lock - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock will make his first start of the season in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders with Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) ruled out. He'll have an opportunity to prove that he still has a future in Denver, although he hasn't looked very good in three relief appearances this year, going 22-for-40 […]

Ryan Ramczyk, Demario Davis Land On COVID-19 List

After placing nine players on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, the New Orleans Saints added offensive tackle Ryan Ramczyk, All-Pro linebacker Demario Davis, linebacker Dwayne Washington and safety J.T. Gray to the list on Friday. Davis currently leads all non-specialists in consecutive games played (158), but that's about to end in Week 16 unless he […]

Jourdan Lewis, Simi Fehoko Placed On COVID-19 List

The Dallas Cowboys added rookie wide receiver Simi Fehoko and nickel cornerback Jourdan Lewis to the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. They will join safety Malik Hooker and defensive tackle Trysten Hill as Cowboys players on the COVID list ahead of the Week 16 game against the Washington Football Team on Sunday night. Because of their […]

Zay Jones Good To Go For Week 16

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Zay Jones (toe) was limited in practice again on Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 16 against the division-rival Denver Broncos. Jones had season-highs in receptions (six), receiving yards (67) and targets (nine) in Monday's win over the Cleveland Browns. Both Jones and tight end […]

Albert Okwuegbunam - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam (knee) has been cleared to face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 16. Believe it or not, Okwuegbunam led the Broncos with his 58 receiving yards in the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Both he and Noah Fant led the Broncos pass-catchers last weekend. Okwuegbunam has two […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (wrist) has been cleared to play in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Perhaps quarterback Drew Lock getting a start will jump start Sutton on offense. It's wishful thinking, but fantasy managers should probably stay away from Denver's passing attack against a Raiders secondary that has held its […]

Melvin Gordon III - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, thumb) has been cleared to play in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Gordon has produced more fantasy points than impressive rookie Javonte Williams because he's scored more touchdowns (seven rushing, two receiving), but Williams has gained more yards on the ground on four fewer carries. […]

Javonte Williams - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams (knee) has been cleared to play in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The second-rounder leads the team in rushing (815 yards), is second in carries (170) behind Melvin Gordon and has six total touchdowns (three rushing, three receiving). He's also fourth on the team with 38 […]

Pat Freiermuth Ruled Out Against Chiefs

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie tight end Pat Freiermuth (concussion) was unable to clear the league's concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Freiermuth will miss the first game of his career after suffering a concussion in last week's win over the Tennessee Titans. The 23-year-old has had an […]

Justin Watson Comes Off The PUP List

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers activated wide receiver Justin Watson (knee) from the Physically Unable to Perform list and cornerback Rashard Robinson (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Friday. Watson has been out all year, but he was on the field for more than 50% of the team's kick and coverage plays on special teams in each […]

Travis Homer Activated From COVID-19 List

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Rashaad Penny, who has been Seattle's lead back each of the last two weeks, is the only Seahawks running back worth considering for starting fantasy lineups this weekend. In his last game in Week 13, Homer caught four of his season-high […]

Alex Collins Will Be Available In Week 16

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins (abdomen) doesn't carry an injury designation into the Week 16 game against the Chicago Bears after putting in limited practices all week. Collins missed the Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams while on the COVID-19 list and is no longer the lead RB in this backfield. Rashaad […]

Jakeem Grant Sr. Out, Marquise Goodwin Questionable

Chicago Bears wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (concussion) has been ruled out with a concussion, while receiver Marquise Goodwin (foot) is questionable to play in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks. Grant suffered his concussion in the Monday night loss to the Minnesota Vikings, but the seldom-used gadget player on offense had scored touchdowns the […]

David Johnson Questionable To Play Sunday

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (quadriceps) missed practice all week but is listed as questionable to play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16. Because of the fact that Johnson wasn't able to get in any work during the week, he's expected to be inactive on Sunday. The 30-year-old has been […]

Derwin James Iffy To Play Against Texans

Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James (hamstring) put in a limited practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Week 16 against the Houston Texans. James missed the first two practices of the week, so his return to the practice field on Friday at least gives him a chance to suit up on Sunday. […]

Donald Parham Jr. Won't Play In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham Jr. (concussion) wasn't able to clear the league's concussion protocol this week and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. Parham had a scary moment in last Thursday's overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs when his helmet slammed to the turf and knocked […]

Kadarius Toney Questionable For Week 16

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney (oblique) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable to play in Week 16 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Fellow receiver Collin Johnson (hamstring) missed practice Friday and has been ruled out. Toney was activated from the COVID-19 list on Thursday and has missed the […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Placed On COVID-19 List

New England Patriots rookie running back Rhamondre Stevenson, who was already ruled out for Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills, was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Stevenson becomes the latest NFL player in a long list to land on the COVID list, and he could be in danger of missing the Week 17 […]

Jamison Crowder Doubtful To Play Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) missed practice all week and is considered doubtful to play in Week 16 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Rookie Elijah Moore (quadriceps) is out for another week and Corey Davis is out for the year, so the Jets top three pass-catchers will all be out this weekend. That […]

Kirk Cousins Will Suit Up Against Rams

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (ribs) practiced in full again on Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams. Cousins was listed on the injury report this week with a rib injury that he suffered in the Monday night win over the Chicago Bears, but it […]

Questionable Tag For Nick Folk

New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) was listed as questionable on the final injury report for Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills. Folk has been listed on the injury report pretty much all year but should be available after getting in a full week of limited practices. The 37-year-old veteran has been money for […]

Damien Harris, Brandon Bolden Questionable For Week 16

New England Patriots running backs Damien Harris (hamstring) and Brandon Bolden (knee) were limited in practice all week and are questionable to play in Week 16 against the division-rival Buffalo Bills. Harris, who hasn't played since the first meeting against Buffalo in Week 13, has a good chance to return and be the team's primary […]

Nelson Agholor Won't Play Against Bills

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor (concussion) didn't clear the league's concussion protocol and was ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Agholor missed practice all week. Kendrick Bourne, the team's leading receiver, remains on the COVID-19 list, so the Patriots could be down to Jakobi Meyers, N'Keal Harry (who is […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Ruled Out For Week 16

New England Patriots rookie running back Rhamondre Stevenson (illness) has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills after missing practice all week. Stevenson has seen a bigger role working alongside Damien Harris (hamstring) in a timeshare in the second half of the season, but the Pats will be down a running back […]

Joe Mixon Ready To Go Against Ravens

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) practiced in full all week and is not on the final injury report for Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. Mixon tweaked his ankle late in the Week 15 win over the Denver Broncos, but the injury wasn't a serious one. The 25-year-old is the RB3 in fantasy […]
