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. A popular breakout candidate heading into training camp, Trautman had a very small role in the preseason opener and then left on a cart with a left […]

Tre'Quan Smith No Longer On Injury Report

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is not listed on the team's official injury report ahead of Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers. Smith was removed from a training camp practice on Aug. 3 with an undisclosed issue and missed two weeks. He was able to return on Aug. 17, but he did […]

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 […]

Austin Ekeler Misses Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (hamstring) officially missed practice on Wednesday due to a hamstring injury. Instead, Ekeler worked off to the side with trainers. Ekeler is an RB1, especially in PPR leagues, but many fantasy managers want nothing to do with him after he missed six games in 2020 in his first season […]

Michael Carter, Denzel Mims Good To Go

New York Jets rookie running back Michael Carter and wide receiver Denzel Mims (hip) aren't listed on the official injury report ahead of Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers. Carter, a fourth-round pick, missed some training camp practices with an undisclosed injury and finished on a low note in the preseason after some early hype. […]

Nelson Agholor Limited In Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday ahead of the team's Week 1 game against the Miami Dolphins. While this doesn't mean that Agholor will miss the season-opener this weekend, his status the rest of the week is worth monitoring. After a solid year with […]

Jalen Hurd Could Be Headed For Injured Reserve

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jalen Hurd (knee) is a candidate to be put on Injured Reserve to give him more time to be fully ready for the season, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Hurd will not be ready for the season-opener this weekend against the Detroit Lions and looks likely to miss at […]

Hunter Henry Not On The Injury Report

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry (shoulder) is not listed on the team's official injury report on Wednesday ahead of the Week 1 matchup against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. Henry will combine with Jonnu Smith in his first season with the Pats to form a strong one-two punch at the position. The Patriots are […]

Preston Williams Limited To Start The Week

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) was limited in practice on Wednesday ahead of Week 1 against the New England Patriots. Williams had season-ending foot surgery last year and was removed from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Aug. 19. He proceeded to play in a preseason game on Aug. 29, but it […]

Adam Thielen No Longer On Injury Report

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (thigh) is not listed on the team's official injury report on Wednesday ahead of their Week 1 season-opener against the Cincinnati Bengals. Thielen suffered a thigh bruise in the preseason and didn't take part in the preseason finale, but it was a minor issue and the Vikings were just […]

Dede Westbrook Expects To Be Ready

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Dede Westbrook (knee), who is recovering from a torn ACL last October, was a full practice participant on Wednesday. Westbrook said on Aug. 6 that he "most definitely" would be ready for the season-opener against the Cincinnati Bengals, and it's looking like he was right. It's good news for Westbrook and […]

Justin Jefferson Good To Go For Week 1

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson (shoulder) is no longer listed on the team's official injury report and should be good to go for the Week 1 season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals. Jefferson suffered an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder on Aug. 6 and was held out of the entire preseason as […]

Jordan Whitehead Ruled Out For Buccaneers Defense

Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Jordan Whitehead (hamstring) has been ruled out for the season-opener on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys. Whitehead was in the league's COVID-19 protocols during training camp and recently suffered a minor hamstring strain that will keep him out this week. Because the injury isn't serious, the 24-year-old defensive back will […]

Parris Campbell Limited With Achilles Injury

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (Achilles) was limited in practice with an Achilles injury that is more of a lingering issue than something that he suffered in practice on Wednesday. Unless the injury gets worse throughout the week, Campbell is expected to start as the team's No. 3 wideout in Week 1 against the […]

Za'Darius Smith In Danger Of Missing Week 1?

Green Bay Packers linebacker Za'Darius Smith (back) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, and his status could be in question for the regular season opener this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Smith spent most of training camp on the Non-Football Injury list with a back problem, so it wouldn't be […]

Mekhi Becton Practicing In Full

New York Jets left tackle Mekhi Becton (concussion) is practicing in full on Wednesday and has been cleared for the Week 1 season opener against the Carolina Panthers. Becton started 13 games at left tackle for the Jets in his rookie season after being the 11th overall pick in the 2020 draft. The 6-foot-7, 364-pounder […]

A.J. Brown Misses Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) did not take part in the team's practice on Wednesday. The Titans could just be giving Brown some extra rest before the start of the 2021 regular season this Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, but his practice participation is worth monitoring the rest of the week. If he's […]

Saquon Barkley Limited Wednesday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Barkley went down with a torn ACL and MCL in his knee in Week 2 of last year and missed the rest of the season. He was able to take part in a full-contact practice last week and […]

Evan Engram Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that tight end Evan Engram (calf) will not practice on Wednesday. Engram will work with the team's training staff, and the team will revisit on Thursday. The 27-year-old has all the potential in the world, but he continues to be a frustrating fantasy asset because of injuries, […]

Chris Godwin Not On Final Injury Report

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (quadriceps) practiced in full on Wednesday and was removed from the final injury report for the season-opener on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys. Godwin was listed as limited on Tuesday, but the injury obviously isn't serious, and he'll be out there to kick off the 2021 season. […]

Kenny Golladay Practicing Wednesday

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hamstring) was able to take part in individual drills at practice on Wednesday. The former Detroit Lions wideout returned to practice last week after missing most of training camp and all of the preseason with a hamstring strain. Unless he suffers a setback this week, all signs are […]

Kadarius Toney On The Practice Field Wednesday

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was on the practice field on Wednesday. COVID-19 and a hamstring injury kept Toney sidelined for the entire preseason, so fantasy managers in dynasty/keeper leagues shouldn't be expecting a whole lot from the rookie out of the gates. Toney, the 20th overall pick in this year's […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire 100 Percent Healthy And Ready To Go

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle), who dealt with an ankle injury last month, said he's "100 percent" healthy and "ready to go" for Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Edwards-Helaire should be good to go as the leader of Kansas City's backfield in the season-opener ahead of backups Darrel Williams […]

Star Lotulelei Not A Sure Thing For Week 1

Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Star Lotulelei (calf) missed his second straight day of practice on Wednesday with a calf injury. The Bills remain optimistic that Lotulelei will be available for the season opener on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but we'd call him questionable for now. He'll likely need to get in some sort of […]

Carson Wentz Practicing In Full, Will Be Ready For Week 1

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz (foot) will be a full practice participant on Wednesday, according to head coach Frank Reich. Wentz will be on the field in Week 1 for his Colts debut against the Seattle Seahawks. The 28-year-old quarterback was a franchise signal-caller in Philadelphia, but things went sour in 2020 and he was […]

Steelers Optimistic On Long-Term Deal For T.J. Watt

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that he's optimistic that the team will get a long-term contract extension worked out with star linebacker T.J. Watt, which will likely make Watt the highest-paid defensive player in the league. Tomlin expects Watt to return to practice on Wednesday to get ready for Week 1 against the […]
