Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (knee) was able to practice in full on Thursday and Friday and has been removed from the final injury report for Week 1 against the New York Giants this Sunday.

Tim Patrick Off The Fantasy Radar Entering Week 1

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick was the team's most consistent and reliable receiver in 2020 after Courtland Sutton (knee) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 2. Patrick averaged a healthy 14.5 yards per catch and 9.4 yards per target on 79 targets to become a weekly fantasy asset. But things look much different with […]

Steady Volume Will Be An Issue For KJ Hamler

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler will be available in Week 1 of the regular season against the New York Giants despite sitting out the preseason finale with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Given Hamler's production during training camp and the preseason and Tim Patrick's limitations due to minor injuries, it looks like Hamler should open the […]

Jerry Jeudy Enters Second Season As A WR3

Denver Broncos second-year wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is looking to kick off the 2021 season on a high note in Week 1 against the New York Giants. Jeudy struggled with drops and inconsistency (13 drops) in his rookie season, but the first-rounder still managed a healthy 52 receptions for 856 yards and three touchdowns with […]

Courtland Sutton Ready To Go For Opener

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (knee) practiced in full all week and is not on the final injury report ahead of the Week 1 season opener against the New York Giants on Sunday. It's great news after Sutton missed most of the 2020 season due to a torn ACL. The 25-year-old wideout has the […]

Don't Expect Too Much From Javonte Williams Too Fast

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams has high expectations coming into his rookie season after being taken in the second round. Denver's front office and coaching staff felt they got one of the best steals of the draft when they selected Williams, and he is entering his first NFL season with the full trust and […]

Can Melvin Gordon III Be Trusted In Week 1?

Ever since the Denver Broncos drafted running back Javonte Williams in the second round this year, Melvin Gordon III's fantasy stock has fallen. Most people expect Williams to eventually take over this backfield by season's end, and for good reason. With that said, Gordon isn't going anywhere anytime soon as long as he's healthy. The […]

Teddy Bridgewater Looking To Make Strong Impression In Debut

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater will be looking to put his best foot forward in his debut with the team in Week 1 against the New York Giants after he won the QB competition with Drew Lock in training camp and the preseason. Bridgewater has a lot of intriguing weapons in which to work with, […]

La'el Collins Suspended For Five Games

Dallas Cowboys offensive tackle La'el Collins has been suspended five games without pay for violating the league's policy and program on substances of abuse, according to a source.

Deshaun Watson Officially Ruled Out

The Houston Texans officially ruled quarterback Deshaun Watson out for the Week 1 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Watson was listed on the injury report as "not injury related."

Odell Beckham Jr. Listed As Questionable Against Chiefs

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) is listed as questionable for the Week 1 game against the Kansas City Chiefs after being limited in practice on Friday, and head coach Kevin Stefanski would not expand much on Beckham's status for the season opener. Stefanski has, however, indicated that OBJ has reached the necessary […]

Anthony Barr, Christian Darrisaw Ruled Out

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr (knee) and offensive lineman Christian Darrisaw (groin) have been ruled out for the Week 1 season-opener against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Xavier Rhodes Ruled Out For Week 1

Indianapolis Colts cornerback Xavier Rhodes (calf) did not practice on Friday and has been ruled out for Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks. The Colts defensive unit has potential to be a weekly starting option for fantasy managers, but their matchup out of the gate is a tough one. Seattle's offense took a nosedive in […]

Keelan Cole Likely To Be A Game-Time Call

New York Jets wide receiver Keelan Cole (knee) will likely be a game-time decision for Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, according to head coach Robert Saleh. Rookie quarterback Zach Wilson will also be without veteran Jamison Crowder for his first NFL start this weekend. Corey Davis will be the team's No. 1 […]

Carson Wentz Will Start Against Seahawks

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that quarterback Carson Wentz (foot) will start on Sunday in the Week 1 season opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Wentz has been practicing in full this week, so it shouldn't be a huge surprise that he will start in his first game in a Colts uniform to kick […]

Dre Kirkpatrick Working Out For Houston

Free-agent cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick is working out for the Houston Texans on Friday, according to a source. The former Arizona Cardinals and Cincinnati Bengals starter has also visited with the San Francisco 49ers, New Orleans Saints and New England Patriots in the offseason.

Bradley Chubb Could Be Questionable For Week 1

Denver Broncos linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) had offseason surgery on his ankle, but he tweaked his other ankle in the team's preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams and was limited in practice on Thursday.

Tyrann Mathieu Up In The Air For Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu remains up in the air for Sunday's season-opener against the Cleveland Browns. Mathieu is vaccinated, but he remains on the league's COVID-19 list and must return two negative tests 48 hours apart in order to be cleared before Sunday. The 29-year-old also must remain asymptomatic. The deadline to activate […]

Marcus Peters Suffers Torn ACL Thursday

Tests confirmed that Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marcus Peters (knee) suffered a season-ending torn ACL at practice on Thursday, according to a source.

With Baltimore Ravens starting running back Gus Edwards (knee) suffering a torn ACL in practice on Thursday, head coach John Harbaugh said that Le'Veon Bell has "a chance" to be active for the team's Week 1 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday night.

Evan Engram Misses Another Practice

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf) did not practice for the second straight day on Thursday, another sign that he's trending toward missing the Week 1 season-opener on Sunday afternoon against the Denver Broncos. Earlier this week, Engram was considered a long shot to suit up against the Broncos, so fantasy managers should've […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Not On The Injury Report

New England Patriots rookie running back Rhamondre Stevenson (thumb) is not on the team's official injury report ahead of Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins despite recently suffering a dislocated thumb during practice last week. As a result, the fourth-round pick should be active for his first NFL game this Sunday. The 23-year-old rookie is […]

Maxx Williams Ready For Season-Opener

Arizona Cardinals tight end Maxx Williams (illness) is not listed on the team's official injury report ahead of their Week 1 meeting with the Tennessee Titans. Williams missed the team's second preseason game with a non-COVID-19 illness, and the team had their final preseason game postponed due to Hurricane Ida in New Orleans. The seventh-year […]

Darnell Mooney Dealing With Back Injury

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (back) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday due to a back injury. Mooney was able to escape training camp and the preseason without any injuries, but he's nursing a back injury that doesn't sound too serious ahead of a Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. As […]

Mecole Hardman Limited With Oblique Ailment

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman (oblique) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Hardman managed to avoid injuries in training camp and the preseason and even played in a full 16 games in his first two NFL seasons, so it would be a shame if he weren't available for the season-opener […]

Adam Trautman Is Healthy For Week 1

New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman (ankle) is not listed on the official injury report ahead of the season-opener in Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers.

Blake Martinez Will Be Ready For Week 1

New York Giants linebacker Blake Martinez isn't on the team's official injury report ahead of Week 1 against the Denver Broncos after he spent time on the league's COVID-19 list at the start of training camp. Martinez has been back at practice for several weeks and should be 100 percent ready to begin his second […]

Alexander Mattison Practices In Full

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ribs) took part in a full practice on Wednesday ahead of Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Mattison was injured in the team's second preseason game and hadn't done much since then, so this is a good sign of his availability this weekend. He'll once again enter the year […]
