Diontae Johnson Looks Ready To Return In Week 4

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (knee) returned to a full practice on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday. Of course, Johnson was inactive last week after injuring his knee at the end of Week 2. Unless he suffers a setback on Friday, the 25-year-old should be returned to starting fantasy lineups in Week […]

D.J. Chark Jr. Carted Off With Leg Injury Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. (leg) was carted off the field in significant pain on Thursday night after a player rolled up on the back of his leg. The injury happened on the Jaguars first drive of the game. Anytime a player is carted off the field, it's usually a long-term injury, but […]

Aaron Jones Has Been Limited This Week

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (ankle) has put in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday this week, while backup A.J. Dillon (back) popped up on the injury report as a limited practice participant on Thursday. There's nothing to suggest that either player is in danger of missing a Week 4 tilt against the […]

Matthew Wright Kicking For Jaguars Thursday Night

The Jacksonville Jaguars elevated kicker Matthew Wright from the practice squad to the active roster on Thursday, and he will kick for the team against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4. Josh Lambo, who has missed all three of his kicks this season, was ruled out on Thursday night due to personal reasons. Based on […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Won't Practice Thursday

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) will miss his second straight practice on Thursday. Valdes-Scantling's hamstring injury isn't believed to be a long-term issue, but it doesn't mean he'll play in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Packers aren't expected to make a final decision on […]

Tony Pollard Away For Personal Reasons

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard missed practice for a personal reason on Thursday, but a source close to him isn't concerned. It sounds as if Pollard should return on Friday and be good to go for Week 4 against the undefeated Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old is still playing second fiddle to lead back Ezekiel […]

Antonio Gibson Dealing With Shin Injury

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shin) missed practice on Thursday due to a shin injury. Gibson was wearing a sleeve over his shin during practice on Wednesday. It's unclear if this injury is actually something that could keep him from playing in Week 4 against the Atlanta Falcons, but we'll have a better […]

Josh Jacobs Back At Practice Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) was back at practice on Thursday after missing the last two games with an ankle injury. Jacobs looked to be going at full speed on Thursday during drills, so he's on track to return for a Monday night showdown against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 4. […]

A.J. Brown, Julio Jones Miss Another Practice

Tennessee Titans wide receivers A.J. Brown (hamstring) and Julio Jones (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Both players need to get on the practice field on Friday to have a chance at playing in Week 4 against the New York Jets. If you were planning on starting either wideout, you should […]

D'Andre Swift's Role Could Grow Even More

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift leads all running backs in receiving yardage (166) through three weeks of the season, and his usage arrow could be going up even more. "I certainly think you're going to see a lot more Swift," head coach Dan Campbell said. Swift leads the team in rushes (33), rushing yards […]

Will Fuller Back At Practice Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (chest, elbow) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It's a good sign that he will be available for the Week 4 meeting with the Indianapolis Colts. The 27-year-old played 51 of a possible 83 offensive snaps in his season debut against the Las Vegas […]

Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton Out Again Thursday

New York Giants wide receivers Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Darius Slayton (hamstring) both remained out of practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Both receivers were injured in the Week 3 loss to the Atlanta Falcons and look questionable for Week 4 against the New Orleans Saints. Shepard has been New York's most trustworthy […]

Rob Gronkowski, Giovani Bernard Remain Sidelined

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (ribs) and running back Giovani Bernard (knee) remained out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. X-rays on Gronkowski's ribs came back negative, but two missed practices have his status up in the air for Sunday night in his return to New England to face the […]

Antonio Gibson Not Practicing Thursday

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (undisclosed) is not practicing on Thursday after suiting up on Wednesday. It could just be a rest day for the team's lead running back, but we'll know more later. Gibson has been on the injury early this year with a shoulder injury that he suffered in Week 1, […]

DeAndre Hopkins Returns To Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (rib) was back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Hopkins missed practice time last week, too, but he still played 91 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 3 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, he ended up catching only three of his six targets […]

Lamar Jackson Dealing With A Back Flare-Up

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) is dealing with a back flare-up but that he should be fine for Week 4 against the Denver Broncos. The team is in "wait-and-see" mode as far as practice goes on Thursday. It sounds like Jackson will play this Sunday, but fantasy managers […]

Jessie Bates Won't Be Available Thursday Night

Cincinnati Bengals free safety Jessie Bates (neck) has been ruled out for the Thursday night game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4. Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie (groin) is also doubtful, but cornerback Trae Waynes (hamstring) is set to make his debut after practicing in full the last two days. This will be the first game […]

Marcus Maye Out 3-4 Weeks

New York Jets franchise-tagged safety Marcus Maye (ankle) will miss three to four weeks with an ankle injury, according to a source. Maye is one of New York's best all-around defenders, so this is a big hit to their defense in the short term. The 28-year-old ranks tied for 14th in fantasy points in IDP […]

Jamison Crowder To Make His Debut This Week?

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (groin) got in a limited practice session on Wednesday. Crowder missed the first two games of the season while being on the COVID-19 list, but he also sat out in the Week 3 loss to the Denver Broncos with a groin injury that has been bothering him since […]

Elijah Moore, Jeff Smith Miss Practice Wednesday

New York Jets wide receivers Elijah Moore (concussion) and Jeff Smith (concussion) both missed practice on Wednesday. Smith was in a car crash on his way to the team's facility on Wednesday. Both players will need to be cleared from the league's concussion protocol in order to play in Week 4 against the Tennessee Titans. […]

Josh Lambo Ruled Out For Thursday Night

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo (personal) has been ruled out for the Thursday night game against the Cincinnati Bengals after missing practice the last two days due to personal reasons. It remains to be seen whether Logan Cooke or Matthew Wright will serve as the team's kicker in Week 4, but fantasy managers should be […]

Russell Gage Still Not Practicing

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage (ankle) was unable to practice on Wednesday to begin the week. Gage was injured in Week 2 and sat out the Week 3 win over the New York Giants. The 25-year-old pass-catcher didn't have a single catch in the season opener and caught five passes for 28 yards before […]

Jonathan Taylor On The Week 4 Injury Report

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (knee) is on the Week 4 injury report and was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Taylor shouldn't be in any danger of missing the game against the Miami Dolphins unless he suffers a setback later in the week. Taylor continues to dominate the running back carries […]

Jack Doyle Misses Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (back) did not practice on Wednesday. Doyle caught just one of his two targets for 10 yards in the Week 3 loss to the Tennessee Titans. Through the first three games of the season, he has nine receptions on 14 targets for 95 yards. Doyle does have eight more […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Could Be Game-Time Decision

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said it will take the entire week to determine whether wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) will be able to play in Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Valdes-Scantling missed practice on Wednesday after he suffered a hamstring injury in the Week 3 win over the San Francisco 49ers. […]

Saquon Barkley, Kenny Golladay Limited Wednesday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) and wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hip) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Barkley is slowly seeing more and more work on game day, but he's being rested during the week after tearing his ACL in 2020. He has now had two straight games with 15-plus touches, […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Improving, Gets In Limited Practice

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Darrell Henderson Jr. (ribs) got in a limited practice on Wednesday and that "the expectation and anticipation is that he'll play, but not 100 percent sure." It's progress, but Henderson will need to do more in practice this week to convince the Rams and […]

Diontae Johnson Back On The Practice Field

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (knee) put in a limited practice on Wednesday after suffering a knee injury in Week 2 that caused him to miss the Week 3 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. It's a good sign for Johnson's availability in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers after he missed all three […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Misses Practice Wednesday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (ribs) did not practice on Wednesday, but head coach Mike Tomlin said, "I anticipate JuJu Smith-Schuster practicing at some point this week." The 24-year-old is considered day-to-day after X-rays came back negative. Barring some sort of practice setback this week, it looks like Smith-Schuster should be able to play […]

Elijah Mitchell Returns To A Limited Practice

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday after he was inactive in the Week 3 loss to the Green Bay Packers. It's a good start to the week, but Mitchell is still no guarantee to return to the field this coming Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. […]
