Mets Have Interest In Reunion With Steven Matz

The New York Mets have interest in bringing back free-agent left-hander Steven Matz following his breakout season with the Toronto Blue Jays in 2021. Matz is from Long Island, New York, and enjoyed his time with the Mets from 2015 to 2020. The Mets traded Matz to Toronto in January after he had an ugly […]

Bruce Irvin Signs With Bears

Veteran pass-rusher Bruce Irvin signed with the Chicago Bears on Thursday, according to a source. Irvin will give the Bears some more edge-rushing depth with Khalil Mack (foot) missing the last two weeks of action. Irvin was a first-round pick by the Seattle Seahawks in 2012 and has 52 career sacks and 118 QB hits […]

Raheem Mostert Could Ditch Crutches Soon

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (knee) already had surgery on his knee and said that he can already put 25 percent of his weight on his injured leg. Mostert might be able to ditch his crutches in a couple weeks and is hoping to return fully in 2022, but he's set to become […]

Trey Sermon Buried On San Fran's Depth Chart

With San Francisco 49ers running back JaMycal Hasty (ankle) still dealing with a serious ankle injury and Elijah Mitchell dealing with a broken finger, it could lead to rookie Trey Sermon's first snaps since Oct. 10. The 49ers had 40-plus carries for the fifth time under head coach Kyle Shanahan since 2017, but it was […]

CeeDee Lamb Back In The Slot

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb returned to the slot with Michael Gallup returning from Injured Reserve in the Week 10 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Lamb caught six passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns with Gallup back in the fold, and he's one of the most lethal pass-catcher on the inside while creating […]

Jack Doyle Downgraded On Thursday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (knee) only was able to practice in a limited fashion on Thursday after he was a full participant on Wednesday. It's a downgrade for Doyle in the middle of the week, but at least he was able to stay on the practice field. Doyle leads Colts tight ends this […]

Jeff Driskel Moving To Tight End

Houston Texans quarterback Jeff Driskel is making the transition to tight end, and tight ends coach Andy Bischoff called him "a rare athlete." The 28-year-old was drafted in the sixth round in 2016 by the San Francisco 49ers, and he's spent time with the Cincinnati Bengals, Detroit Lions and Denver Broncos in three seasons in […]

Jeremy McNichols Misses Another Practice

Tennessee Titans running back Jeremy McNichols (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and missed his second straight practice on Thursday. McNichols is extremely questionable to play in Week 11 against the Houston Texans and will need to get in some practice work on Friday to have a chance at suiting up. The 25-year-old has […]

JaMycal Hasty Trending In The Wrong Direction

San Francisco 49ers running back JaMycal Hasty (ankle) missed his second straight practice on Thursday and doesn't look particularly close to returning in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars after he missed last Sunday night's game. It's Jeff Wilson Jr., not Hasty, that fantasy managers should be eyeing if rookie Elijah Mitchell (finger) is unable […]

Cowboys Activate Greg Zuerlein From COVID-19 List

The Dallas Cowboys activated kicker Greg Zuerlein from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Zuerlein was forced to miss the Week 10 win over the Atlanta Falcons after testing positive for the virus, but he'll be back as the team's kicker for a potentially high-scoring matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday. Greg the Leg […]

Cole Beasley Returns To Practice Thursday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley (ribs) made a return to practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session. Beasley officially was limited in practice and continues to be limited by a painful rib injury. The veteran slot man barely played in the second half of the Week 9 loss and then played a season-low […]

Justin Jackson Looks Ready To Return

Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (quadriceps) got in a full practice on Thursday after he was a limited participant on Wednesday. Jackson is trending in the right direction for Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers after missing the last two games with a quad injury. He did have a season-high 79 yards rushing […]

Justin Herbert Listed With Oblique Injury

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (oblique) popped up on the injury report for Week 11 on Thursday with an oblique ailment, but he was able to get in a full practice. It's something to watch, but the fact that the second-year signal-caller was able to practice in full means this isn't something to be […]

Brandon Bolden, N'Keal Harry Active Against Falcons

New England Patriots running back Brandon Bolden (hip) and wide receiver N'Keal Harry (knee) are both active for Thursday night against the Atlanta Falcons. Kicker Nick Folk (knee), who was also questionable coming into this one, is active. Bolden will return to being more of a rarely used change-of-pace back now that Damien Harris (concussion) […]

Damien Harris, Jonnu Smith Officially Active

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (concussion) and tight end Jonnu Smith (shoulder) are both active for Thursday night's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Although it's fair to wonder if his role might be smaller after he missed Week 10 with a concussion and rookie Rhamondre Stevenson went off for a big game. But […]

D'Andre Swift, Jamaal Williams Limited Thursday

Detroit Lions running backs D'Andre Swift (shoulder) and Jamaal Williams (groin) were both limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Williams has missed the last two games due to injury, but he appears on track for a potential return this Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. We wouldn't expect the 26-year-old to step […]

Latavius Murray Limited Again Thursday

Baltimore Ravens running back Latavius Murray (ankle) put in his second limited practice session of the week on Thursday. If he can avoid a setback, Murray is on track to return for the first time since Week 6 when the Ravens play the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The Ravens appeared to be planning for […]

Rashod Bateman Misses Practice With Illness

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Rashod Bateman missed Thursday's practice with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Marquise Brown (thigh) has missed back-to-back practices days this week, too, so Baltimore's receiving corps is a bit questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Chicago Bears. Bateman has been a pretty solid WR3/flex for fantasy managers as the team's No. 2 […]

Damien Williams Looks Set To Return In Week 11

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) put in a full practice on Thursday after being limited to start the week on Wednesday. Williams looks on track to return to action following the bye after he sat out the last game in Week 9. The problem is that his fantasy value dried up long ago […]

Allen Robinson II Misses Another Practice

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday, putting his availability for the Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens in question. Robinson will probably need to practice in some fashion on Friday in order to avoid being ruled out entirely. On top of Robinson being […]

Tua Tagovailoa Practicing In Full

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (finger) went from a limited practice on Wednesday to practicing in full on Thursday. Tagovailoa served as Jacoby Brissett's backup the last two weeks due to a middle finger fracture on his left hand, but he entered mid-game last week with Brissett injured and led the team to a win […]

T.J. Watt Looking Unlikely For Sunday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers pass-rusher T.J. Watt (hip, knee) missed his second practice of the week on Thursday and doesn't appear likely to play in Week 11 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers unless he returns to practice on Friday. Watt was considered week-to-week earlier in the week, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise […]

Chase Claypool Limited Again Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool (toe) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Claypool was inactive in last week's tie with the Detroit Lions, but two limited practices to begin the week have him trending towards a return to action for Sunday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. The downside is that Claypool […]

Elijah Mitchell In Non-Contact Jersey Thursday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (finger) was in a non-contact jersey on a side field during practice on Thursday. Mitchell, who had surgery on a broken finger on Tuesday, missed practice on Wednesday, but the Niners remain optimistic that he can play in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 23-year-old has […]

Kenny Golladay Off The Week 11 Injury Report

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) ended a three-game absence by returning in Week 9 and catching two of three targets for 28 yards before last week's bye. The time off apparently did Golladay well, and although he's been a disappointment (just one 100-yard game) in six games played in his first season […]

Rob Gronkowski Practices In Full Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) got in a full practice on Thursday, which is a good sign that he can return to action on Monday night against the New York Giants. Gronkowski returned prematurely in Week 8 after missing extended time with fractured ribs and a punctured lung, only to suffer from […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones, Anthony Schwartz Miss Practice

Cleveland Browns wide receivers Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) and Anthony Schwartz (concussion) both missed practice on Thursday. Peoples-Jones tweaked a groin injury on Wednesday that caused him to miss a game earlier this year, so his status isn't looking good for Sunday against the Detroit Lions. He rode a stationary bike on the side on Thursday. […]

Jarvis Landry Back On The Practice Field

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) returned to the practice field on Thursday after not participating in Wednesday's session. Landry continues to rest a knee injury early in the week that sidelined him earlier in the season, but he should be fine for this weekend's game against the Detroit Lions, barring some sort of […]

Baker Mayfield Back At Practice Thursday

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder, knee, foot) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Mayfield said he's the most beat up he's ever been in his career after suffering a knee injury last Sunday, but the team fully expects him to tough it out and play in Week 11 against the winless […]

Taysom Hill, Ty Montgomery Not Present Thursday

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (foot) and wide receiver Ty Montgomery (finger) were both absent at practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Hill and Montgomery are both trending in the wrong direction for the Week 11 game against the Philadelphia Eagles and will likely need to get back on the practice field […]
