Chargers Place Bryan Bulaga On Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Chargers placed offensive tackle Bryan Bulaga (back) on Injured Reserve on Friday and signed offensive lineman Michael Schofield in a corresponding move. Bulaga injured his back in the Week 1 win over the Washington Football Team and will miss at least the next three weeks. With Bulaga out, expect Storm Norton to […]

Za'Darius Smith Lands On Injured Reserve

Green Bay Packers linebacker Za'Darius Smith (back) is heading to Injured Reserve on Friday. Although Smith was able to play in the Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints, his back has been bothering him since the start of training camp, and he played in just 29 percent of the defensive snaps in the […]

Marquise Goodwin, Darnell Mooney Questionable

Chicago Bears wide receivers Marquise Goodwin (quadriceps) and wide receiver Darnell Mooney (back) are listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. However, the Chicago Sun-Times' Jason Lieser assumes they'll both play after they've been practicing this week. As long as veteran quarterback Andy Dalton is running this offense, it's hard to really […]

Melvin Gordon III Has Opportunity In Week 2

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III wasn't a sexy pick in fantasy drafts because of the presence of rookie second-rounder Javonte Williams. Both running backs split snaps evenly down the middle (50 percent each) in the Week 1 win over the New York Giants, but it was Gordon who out-produced Williams on the ground […]

Anthony Barr, Everson Griffen Out For Vikings Defense

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr (knee) and defensive end Everson Griffen (concussion) have both been ruled out for Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals. Cornerback Harrison Hand (hamstring) will also be inactive. Griffen, who played only 28 of 69 defensive snaps in the Week 1 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, is in a rotational pass-rushing […]

Teddy Bridgewater Has A Great Matchup In Week 2

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater didn't exactly raise eyebrows in the Week 1 win over the New York Giants, but he got the job done by going 28-for-36 for 264 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. Bridgewater prefers short passes as opposed to challenging defenses deep down the field, as his longest completion in Week […]

Browns Place Anthony Walker On Injured Reserve

The Cleveland Browns are placing linebacker Anthony Walker (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Friday with a hamstring strain, according to a source. Walker should be back in three weeks. The 26-year-old calls defensive plays for the team, so his loss is a notable one, even if it's only for three weeks. He racked up nine […]

Trey Sermon Likely To Be Active In Week 2

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Trey Sermon is likely to be active in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles, alongside fellow rookie Elijah Mitchell and JaMycal Hasty. Sermon was a surprise inactive in the season-opening win over the Detroit Lions in Week 1. Offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel said there was an "extra aggressiveness" from […]

Zack Moss Has Looked Good In Practice This Week

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that the health of running back Zack Moss in training camp contributed to him being inactive in the Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, McDermott said that Moss has looked good in practice this week. In Moss' absence in the season opener, Devin Singletary played 75.2 […]

Vikings Defense Hurting Before Week 2

Minnesota Vikings linebackers Eric Kendricks (quadriceps) and Anthony Barr (knee) and defensive end Everson Griffen (concussion) did not practice on Thursday. Kendricks and Griffen were added to the injury report on Thursday, while Barr has missed practice the last two days. Kendricks led the league in Week 1 with 15 tackles after he missed the […]

Ronald Jones II The Starter In Name Only?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said earlier this week that running back Ronald Jones II would start in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons, but how much stock should fantasy managers put in that statement? Arians also said on his weekly radio show that his top three running backs are "all starters." Based […]

Saquon Barkley Will Play Thursday Night

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) will play on Thursday night against the Washington Football Team, according to a source. Barkley was questionable coming in, and he even admitted that two games in four days was not ideal after returning from a torn ACL in 2020. As expected, the 24-year-old was eased into […]

A.J. Brown Gets In A Full Practice

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Brown had offseason surgery on his knees, so he will be monitored by the Titans early on. In the Week 1 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the 24-year-old played 52 of a possible 64 offensive snaps […]

Jaguars Release Duke Johnson

The Jacksonville Jaguars released running back Duke Johnson from their practice squad on Thursday. That didn't take long. The Jaguars added Johnson to their practice squad just last week. Even if he latches on with another organization relatively soon, he's unlikely to become a fantasy relevant name anytime soon. The Jaguars will move forward with […]

Zach Ertz Back At Practice Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring) returned to a limited practice session on Thursday after he did not practice on Wednesday. Ertz was injured in the Week 1 win over the Atlanta Falcons and was mainly given a rest on Wednesday as a precaution, so he should be available to play in the Week […]

Jamison Crowder Limited In Return To Practice

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (groin) was removed from the COVID-19 list on Thursday, but he was a limited practice participant in his return due to a groin injury. The groin issue isn't new, but it's unlikely to keep him from making his season debut in Week 2 against the New England Patriots […]

Dre Greenlaw To Have Surgery, Out 6-8 Weeks

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (groin) plans to have surgery either Thursday or Friday to fix a groin injury, according to a source. Greenlaw will miss six to eight weeks after the surgery. The 24-year-old had a big game in the Week 1 victory over the Detroit Lions, recording six tackles (four solo) and […]

Billy Price To Start At Center Thursday Night

The New York Giants are shifting around their offensive line and will have newly acquired offensive lineman Billy Price start at center on Thursday night against the Washington Football Team. Price was traded from the Cincinnati Bengals at the end of last month after the former first-rounder only started in nine games in his first […]

Gabriel Davis Back At Practice Thursday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis (ankle) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Barring a setback on Friday, Davis should be good to go to play in the Week 2 meeting with the Miami Dolphins. Although Davis was the only Bills receiver to find the end zone in the Week 1 […]

Josh Jacobs Still Not Practicing Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle, toe) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. The Raiders are on a short week after their overtime victory on Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens, but fantasy managers should now be somewhat concerned about Jacobs' status heading into Week 2 against the […]

Marquise Brown Out Again Thursday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) is not practicing for the second straight day on Thursday. The Ravens are on a short week after playing against the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday, but two missed practices to begin the week make Brown iffy for Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs. The game being […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Will Attempt To Rehab Hip Without Surgery

Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) will attempt to rehab his right hip subluxation without surgery for now after he underwent a battery of tests and sought several expert opinions, according to sources. He is expected to miss around eight weeks. It remains to be seen how the 38-year-old's rehab goes, but the Washington […]

Darius Leonard To Miss Another Practice

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle, illness) will not practice on Thursday due to a non-COVID-19-related illness. Leonard is looking very questionable to play in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams after he disappointed with only five tackles and a forced fumble in the season-opening loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Most fantasy managers are […]

Will Fuller Not Spotted At Practice Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller was not spotted during the media viewing portion of practice on Thursday. Fuller was present at practice on Wednesday, so it's unclear why he wasn't on the field on Thursday after finishing up his six-game suspension in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots. DeVante Parker (seven) […]

Jets Activate Jamison Crowder From COVID-19 List

The New York Jets activated wide receiver Jamison Crowder from the COVID-19 list on Thursday. After missing the Week 1 season-opening loss to the Carolina Panthers, both Crowder and Keelan Cole (knee) could return to face the New England Patriots in Week 2. Their likely return is bad news for rookie Elijah Moore and Braxton […]

Aldrick Rosas Added To Active Roster

The New Orleans Saints signed kicker Aldrick Rosas from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster ahead of Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers. Rosas filled in admirably for Wil Lutz, who is recovering from core muscle surgery, in the Week 1 blowout win over the Green Bay Packers. Rosas made a 44-yard field […]

Randy Gregory Doubtful To Play Against Chargers

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that defensive end Randy Gregory remains in the league's COVID-19 protocols. Gregory is doubtful to suit up in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Chargers. On top of Gregory's issues with COVID-19, the Cowboys defense just lost top pass-rusher DeMarcus Lawrence to a foot injury in practice on […]

Ravens Preparing To Be Without Ronnie Stanley

The Baltimore Ravens are preparing to be without All-Pro left tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) in Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs and possibly far longer as he undergoes medical testing. Ali Villanueva will slide back to his natural spot at left tackle, while Patrick Makari will be the next man up at right tackle. […]

Lions Not Optimistic About Tyrell Williams

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell didn't sound optimistic about wide receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) and his availability for Monday night's game against the Green Bay Packers. Williams remains in the concussion protocol after suffering a head injury in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and he's not in the building on […]

Saquon Barkley Unlikely To Be Unleashed In Week 2

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley's (knee) production in the Week 1 loss to the Denver Broncos was very modest (11 touches for 27 yards), but it was expected in his first game back from a torn ACL on a limited snap count (48 percent of offensive snaps). Barkley didn't suffer any sort of […]
