Washington's Defense Has Underperformed

The Washington Football Team defense, with four former first-round picks in Chase Young, Montez Sweat, Daron Payne and Jonathan Allen, has underperformed through three weeks after being hyped up in the offseason. Young has yet to record a sack and has just one quarterback hit. Washington's defense ranks 29th in scoring defense and 31st in […]

DeAndre Hopkins Good To Go Against Rams

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (ribs) practiced in full for the second straight day on Friday and is not on the team's final injury report for Week 4 against the Los Angeles Rams. Hopkins missed practice all of last week but still played 92 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 3 win […]

Cardinals Offensive Line Could Be At Less Than Full Strength

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that starting offensive linemen Kelvin Beachum (ribs), Justin Pugh (back) and Justin Murray (back) will be game-time decisions in Week 4 against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. All three players are officially listed as questionable. That's not exactly what you want to hear against one of the strongest […]

Rob Gronkowski Officially Out For Week 4

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (ribs) is not making the trip to New England on Saturday due to his injury and will be out on Sunday night in Week 4 against the Patriots, according to sources. Quarterback Tom Brady won't have one of his most trusted weapons in his highly anticipated homecoming on […]

Le'Veon Bell Could Make Ravens Debut In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens running back Le'Veon Bell has a shot to make his season and team debut in Week 4 against the Denver Broncos this Sunday, according to sources. The Ravens would need to elevate Bell from the practice squad to the active roster before kickoff Sunday afternoon. Baltimore has been scrambling at the running back […]

Nick Folk Questionable For Sunday Night

New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) is questionable to play in Week 4 on Sunday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a left knee injury. The good news is that Folk practiced on a limited basis all week, so he has a pretty good shot at suiting up for Tom Brady's homecoming. The […]

Bills Defense Will Be Without Jordan Poyer

Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for the Week 4 tilt against the Houston Texans. Offensive guard Jon Feliciano (concussion) has also been ruled out. With Poyer out this Sunday, Buffalo will look for Damar Hamlin and Jaquan Johnson to step up in his absence. Despite […]

D'Andre Swift Listed As Questionable

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chicago Bears. Swift was limited in practice all week, though, so we'd be pretty surprised if he was inactive on Sunday in this divisional tilt. The 22-year-old hasn't missed a game this year and has a whopping 52 touches […]

Saquon Barkley, Kenny Golladay Good To Go

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) and wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hip) were both limited in practice all week and were taken off the final injury report for Week 4 against the New Orleans Saints. Barkley continues to be limited during the practice week, but he has played more than 80 percent of […]

Aaron Jones Doesn't Have An Injury Designation

After practicing on a limited basis all week, Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (ankle) was removed from the final injury report for Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Backup A.J. Dillon (back) popped up on the injury report on Thursday, but he practiced on a limited basis the last two days and is […]

Gerald Everett Unlikely To Play Sunday

Seattle Seahawks tight end Gerald Everett has not registered a negative COVID-19 test yet, making it unlikely that he plays in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday unless he registers back-to-back negative tests on Saturday and Sunday. The good news is that Everett is vaccinated and is asymptomatic. Colby Parkinson (foot) is […]

Broncos Defense Not As Exciting Against Ravens

The Denver Broncos defense has been a popular fantasy unit through the season's first three weeks, but a lot of it has had to do with who they've played -- New York Giants, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets. Those three opponents have a combined record of 0-10. Denver's D is also relatively healthy, minus pass-rusher […]

Darnell Mooney Questionable For Week 4

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) is listed as questionable for a Week 4 meeting with the Detroit Lions. Mooney practiced on a limited basis all week and is expected to play, but that doesn't mean he should be in fantasy lineups. The 23-year-old fought through injury in the Week 3 loss to the […]

Quenton Nelson To Miss His First NFL Game

Indianapolis Colts offensive guard Quenton Nelson (ankle) will miss his first NFL game in Week 4 against the Miami Dolphins after playing in the first 51 games of his career. Nelson could be in danger of missing the second game of his career in Week 5 after he was carted off the field in the […]

Zach Cunningham Placed On COVID-19 List

The Houston Texans placed linebacker Zach Cunningham and defensive lineman Ross Blacklock on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, so they will not play in Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills. Cunningham tallied a league-high 164 tackles (106 solo) last season and also added three sacks and four QB hits, putting him firmly in the IDP […]

Za'Darius Smith Out Indefinitely After Back Surgery

Green Bay Packers linebacker Za'Darius Smith (back) had back surgery this week and is expected to be out for an extended period of time, according to sources. However, the good news is that the team is hoping it's not a season-ending situation. Smith is currently on Injured Reserve, but now he's guaranteed to miss more […]

T.J. Watt Returning After One-Game Absence

Pittsburgh Steelers superstar pass-rusher T.J. Watt (groin) was a full practice participant for the second straight day on Friday and was removed from the final Week 4 injury report against the Green Bay Packers. It's great news for the Steelers defense, but it won't change the fact that Pittsburgh's defensive unit is off the fantasy […]

Ravens Defense Trending Down Entering Week 4

The Baltimore Ravens defense has been vulnerable early in the 2021 season, and they could be short-handed across the field in a big matchup with the Denver Broncos on the road in Week 4. Safety DeShon Elliott (quadriceps), linebacker Pernell McPhee (shoulder), cornerback Tavon Young, cornerback Anthony Averett (ankle), safety Geno Stone (thigh), safety Chuck […]

Rashod Bateman, Miles Boykin Making Progress

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that wide receivers Rashod Bateman (groin) and Miles Boykin (hamstring) have made good progress after returning to practice this week. "It was very nice to have them back and they made good progress," Harbaugh replied. Both players were activated from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, but it's unclear if […]

Danny Amendola Out Another Week

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (thigh) has been ruled out for his second straight game in Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills after missing practice all week. There's a chance that the veteran slot man can return in Week 5 to face the New England Patriots, but he'll need to get back on the […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Ruled Out, Expected To Go On IR

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and is expected to be placed on the short-term Injured Reserve, according to a source. The Packers are worried that the speedy downfield threat could aggravate his injury if he tries to play through it. If […]

Russell Gage To Miss Another Game

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) has been ruled out for the second straight game in Week 4 against the Washington Football Team after missing practice all week. The 25-year-old was a popular breakout candidate in the preseason with Julio Jones now with the Titans, but Gage went without a catch in the season […]

Will Fuller Will Play Against Colts

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (chest, elbow) was taken off the team's final injury report for Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts. Fuller was held out of practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday and returned to a full practice on Friday. The deep threat was third in targets (six) in his season debut […]

Diontae Johnson, JuJu Smith-Schuster Good To Go

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers Diontae Johnson (knee) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (ribs) practiced in full on Friday and were removed from the final injury report for Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. Johnson injured his knee on the final play in Week 2 and was inactive last weekend, but he should be returning to all […]

Carson Wentz, Jack Doyle Questionable Against Dolphins

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz (ankles) and tight end Jack Doyle (back) are both questionable to face the Miami Dolphins in Week 4. After Wentz played on two sprained ankles last week and got in limited practices all week, there's nothing to suggest that he won't play this Sunday against Miami. He's still not 100 […]

Jonathan Taylor Questionable For Week 4

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (knee) is listed as questionable for the Week 4 game against the Miami Dolphins. We'd be surprised if Taylor isn't out there on Sunday after he practiced on a limited basis all week. And against a Dolphins defense that has allowed 364 rushing yards, four touchdowns and 27.3 fantasy […]

Rashaad Penny Out, Dee Eskridge Doubtful

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (calf) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers, while rookie wide receiver Dee Eskridge (concussion) is listed as doubtful. Penny suffered his injury in the season opener and hasn't played since. Given Seattle's depth at the position, he doesn't need to be stashed in […]

Tyler Lockett Questionable To Face 49ers

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hip) is considered questionable to play in Week 4 against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Lockett looked to be in trouble after being downgraded on Thursday with a missed practice, but he thankfully was able to return to a full practice Friday. The Seahawks are now optimistic that the […]

Lamar Jackson Questionable For Week 4

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) is officially questionable for Week 4 against the Denver Broncos. Jackson missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with a sore back, but he returned to a full practice on Friday and is fully expected to play this Sunday. The 24-year-old looked good in practice on Friday and remains a must-start […]

Melvin Gordon III Draws Questionable Tag

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (leg, ribs) is listed as questionable for the Week 4 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Gordon was limited in practice all week long and is expected to play this Sunday afternoon. The 28-year-old has been in a near-even timeshare with second-round rookie Javonte Williams in the first three […]
