Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) is expected to be considered week-to-week with a strained hamstring that he suffered in the Week 3 win over the Indianapolis Colts, according to a source.

Justin Fields Not Guaranteed To Start In Week 4

Johnson had two […]

McManus remained perfect on the year, making all four of his field-goal attempts (long of 47 yards) and both of his extra-point tries. The […]

Noah Fant Does Very Little In Week 3

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant caught just two of his three targets for a measly 15 yards in the Week 3 blowout win over the New York Jets.

KJ Hamler Injures Knee In Win Over Jets

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler (knee) injured his left knee in the first half of the 26-0 Week 3 win over the New York Jets on Sunday and didn't return in the second half. Hamler wasn't putting much weight on his leg when he left for the locker room, so he could be looking […]

Courtland Sutton Has A Disappointing Stat Line

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton caught all five of his targets in the 26-0 blowout win over the New York Jets in Week 3, but he managed just 37 yards on a day in which the Broncos offense relied heavily on the run. It was a disappointing line for his fantasy managers after he […]

Tim Patrick Leads Broncos In Receiving In Week 3

With New York's offense doing nothing, Denver leaned more […]

Jets Still Believe In Denzel Mims

New York Jets second-year wide receiver Denzel Mims has just one catch for 40 yards through two games, and he was a healthy scratch in the Week 2 loss to the New England Patriots. Because he doesn't play special teams, Mims must learn all the wideout positions if he wants to start on game day […]

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that linebacker Keanu Neal tested positive for COVID-19 and is out for Monday night against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3.

T.J. Watt Downgraded To Out In Week 3

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (groin) has been downgraded from questionable to out in Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Watt was close to getting the green light, so there's a good chance that he'll be able to return in Week 4, barring any setbacks. With Watt sitting out, Melvin Ingram will see more playing […]

Miles Sanders Should Be Good To Go

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (chest) was a full practice participant on Friday after being limited in practice on Thursday. Unless he suffers a setback, Sanders should be fine to serve as the team's lead back for the Monday night contest against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3. The 24-year-old has carried the ball […]

T.J. Hockenson On His Way To Becoming Elite

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson looks to be on his way to becoming an elite tight end in the NFL. Hockenson is the only player in the NFL through two games with eight-plus receptions in both games of 2021. He is also the third tight end in league history to have eight catches and […]

D'Andre Swift To Be More Involved In Passing Game?

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift already has 12 catches through two games, but he could get more involved through the air earlier in games. While Detroit isn't giving up on their wide receivers just yet, head coach Dan Campbell said another solution is to get the ball in the hands of Swift and tight […]

Broncos Defense A Top Option In Week 3

The Denver Broncos defense received some bad news this week when they learned that they had lost Josey Jewell for the rest of the season and Bradley Chubb for at least the next three weeks.

Brandon McManus Is Suddenly Fantasy Relevant Again

Noah Fant Will Play Against Jets

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) got in a full practice on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 3 against the New York Jets. Fant continues to be bothered by nagging injuries, but it hasn't kept him from playing in the first two games, and he's been great for […]

KJ Hamler Needs More Volume

Denver Broncos second-year wide receiver KJ Hamler was fifth on the team in targets in the Week 2 win over the Jacksonville, and he managed to catch only one of his three targets for five yards.
