Peyton Barber On Track To Return Against Denver

Las Vegas Raiders running back Peyton Barber (toe) returned to a full practice after missing the Week 5 loss to the Chicago Bears with a minor case of turf toe. Barber was the better fantasy back over pass-catching Kenyan Drake when Josh Jacobs missed a few games early on, but Jacobs has moved past his […]

Sammy Watkins Absent From Practice On Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Sammy Watkins (thigh) missed practice on Wednesday after being forced from the Monday night game against the Indianapolis Colts early. The veteran pass-catcher will probably need to get in some sort of practice later this week to have a shot at playing in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Rookie […]

D'Andre Swift, Jamaal Williams Remain Limited

Detroit Lions running backs D'Andre Swift (groin) and Jamaal Williams (hip) were limited practice participants on Wednesday to begin the week. Swift and Williams continue to be limited but haven't missed any game time and should be good to go in Week 6 against the Cincinnati Bengals, barring any setbacks. Without many options to go […]

Melvin Gordon III Misses Practice With Hip Ailment

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip) was unable to practice on Wednesday due to a new hip injury. Gordon played through leg and rib issues the last two weeks and saw single-digit carries (nine each) in the last two games while continuing to split the touches and snaps almost dead even with rookie […]

Ben Roethlisberger Misses Another Wednesday Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (hip, pectoral) missed yet another Wednesday practice. It wouldn't be a surprise if Roethlisberger, likely in his final season, is rested throughout the year on Wednesdays. Pittsburgh's offense looked much better in the Week 5 win over the Denver Broncos when Big Ben threw for 253 yards and two touchdowns. […]

Chase Claypool, James Washington Limited In Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers Chase Claypool (hamstring) and James Washington (groin) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Claypool missed Week 4 but returned to catch five of his six targets for 130 yards and a touchdown in the Week 5 win over the Denver Broncos. With JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) now done for the year, […]

D.K. Metcalf Still Limited By Foot Injury

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (foot) put in another limited practice on Wednesday. Metcalf continues to be a limited participant in practices, but he has yet to miss a game and has scored four times in the last three weeks and five times through the first five weeks. The physical specimen caught all five […]

Chris Carson Expected To Return To Practice Thursday

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (neck) didn't practice on Wednesday but is expected to return on Thursday, according to head coach Pete Carroll. Carson missed last Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams and is questionable to play this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night. If he's truly a game-time decision this […]

DeAndre Hopkins Misses Practice With Illness

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (illness) did not take part in practice on Wednesday due to an illness. As far as we know, this isn't related to COVID-19, so Hopkins should be a lock to play in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. The 29-year-old isn't seeing the type of volume that fantasy managers […]

Kyler Murray, Chase Edmonds Limited Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (shoulder) and running back Chase Edmonds (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Murray's right shoulder is worth monitoring, but it's unlikely to keep him from playing in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns as the Cardinals look to stay undefeated. He had a down week last Sunday in […]

Aaron Jones, Robert Tonyan Limited Wednesday

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (ankle) and tight end Robert Tonyan (knee) were limited practice participants on Wednesday. Jones continues to be bothered by an ankle injury, but he hasn't missed any time on game days. In the Week 5 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, he carried the ball 14 times for 103 […]

Ezekiel Elliott On The Week 6 Injury Report

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (ribs) landed on the Week 6 injury report after getting in a limited practice on Wednesday. Elliott missed a bit of time in the Week 5 win over the New York Giants, but he returned to the contest and had his second straight 100-yard game. Through five weeks, Dallas' […]

Danny Amendola Limited Again On Wednesday

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (thigh) remained a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Amendola was also limited in practice last week, but he was unable to gain clearance to play in the Week 5 loss to the New England Patriots. Another week of limited practices could allow him to return to the mix alongside […]

Nico Collins Designated To Return From Injured Reserve

The Houston Texans designated rookie wide receiver Nico Collins (shoulder) to return from Injured Reserve after he returned to the practice field on Wednesday. The Texans will now have 21 days to activate him from IR and to the active roster. Collins had just two catches on four targets for 39 yards in the first […]

Joe Burrow Expected To Play In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (throat) is on "voice rest" after suffering a throat injury in the Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers that required a precautionary hospital visit, according to head coach Zac Taylor. After practicing in full on Wednesday, Burrow is expected to play this Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The […]

Lavonte David, Antoine Winfield Jr. Won't Play Against Eagles

Tampa Bay Buccaneers inside linebacker Lavonte David (ankle) and safety Antoine Winfield Jr. (concussion) have both been ruled out for Thursday night's action against the Philadelphia Eagles. Defensive lineman Patrick O'Connor (calf) and outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul (hand, shoulder) are also questionable. David and Winfield are two of the team's best defensive players, so the […]

Lane Johnson Ruled Out For Thursday Night

Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson (personal) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It will be the third straight missed game for Johnson, who is no lock to return for the rest of the season while dealing with an apparent serious personal matter. […]

Marcus Mariota Nearing A Return

The Las Vegas Raiders designated quarterback Marcus Mariota (quadriceps) to return from Injured Reserve, and he returned to the practice field on Wednesday. The Raiders now have 21 days to activate Mariota from IR to the active roster as Derek Carr's backup. There's no guarantee that he'll be backing up Carr as early as this […]

Daniel Jones Could Play Without Practicing

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (concussion) is "on track with everything" and could return to play in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Rams, according to head coach Joe Judge. Jones didn't practice on Wednesday, but he was in full pads running sprints, taking snaps and throwing passes on a side field with trainers. […]

Colts Sign Michael Badgley With Rodrigo Blankenship Hurting

The Indianapolis Colts signed kicker Michael Badgley after working him out on Wednesday, according to sources. Regular kicker Rodrigo Blankenship (hip), who missed practice on Wednesday, tweaked his hip in the Week 5 loss to the Baltimore Ravens and is now questionable to be ready for Week 6 against the Houston Texans after undergoing an […]

Mike Williams Not At Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday to begin the practice week. Williams is a surprise addition to the Week 6 injury report after he caught eight of his whopping 16 targets for 165 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 5 win over the […]

Damien Harris Misses Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ribs) did not participate in the team's Wednesday practice after getting injured in the Week 5 win over the Houston Texans. It was reported on Monday that Harris avoided a serious injury last weekend, so he has a chance to return to practice later this week and play […]

Allen Robinson II On The Week 6 Injury Report

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (ankle) popped up on the injury report for the first time this year after not practicing on Wednesday. It's unclear if this new injury is serious enough to keep him from playing in Week 6 against the division-rival Green Bay Packers, but we'll continue to monitor his status […]

Damien Williams, Darnell Mooney Limited Wednesday

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (foot, knee) and wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Williams was the popular waiver-wire pickup last week after David Montgomery (knee) went down with a multi-week knee injury, and he responded by carrying the ball 16 times for 64 yards and a touchdown […]

Justin Jefferson, Adam Thielen Dealing With Injuries

Minnesota Vikings wide receivers Justin Jefferson (ankle) and Adam Thielen (foot) were both listed as not practicing on Wednesday. Both players were a big part of the offense in the Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions, but they will be injuries to watch heading into Thursday's practice. Through five weeks, Jefferson currently ranks as […]

Alexander Mattison Absent Wednesday

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Dalvin Cook (ankle), who missed the Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions, returned to practice, so he has a chance to play again in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. Mattison has been money for fantasy managers in the two games that […]

Dalvin Cook Returns To Practice

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after being inactive in the Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions. Cook has missed two of the last three games and wasn't effective in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns. The fact that the 26-year-old even practiced on Wednesday is […]

Darren Waller Misses Practice Wednesday

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller wasn't at practice on Wednesday. Waller wasn't believed to have suffered an injury in the Week 5 loss to the Chicago Bears, so the reasoning for his missed practice is unclear. We'll continue to monitor the situation throughout the week. There's a chance that the Raiders are just […]

T.J. Hockenson Not Practicing Wednesday

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Hockenson also missed practice last Wednesday but was limited the rest of the week and played in the Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. It was another disappointing game, though, as he caught just two passes for 22 yards. Both Hockenson's injury […]

Joe Mixon Gets In Some Work Wednesday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) worked with the running backs in drills toward the end of media availability during the team's practice on Wednesday. It doesn't sound like Mixon got in a full practice, but he did get some work in. If he can increase his activity throughout the week, he should be […]
