Julio Jones Trending In The Right Direction For Monday Night
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring), who missed Week 3 against the Bears, is trending in the right direction to play on Monday night against the Packers. Jones has an extra day to recover with the game being on Monday night, so as of now, fantasy managers should be planning to use the All-Pro […]

Michael Thomas Not A Lock To Play In Week 4
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) has practiced on a limited basis both Wednesday and Thursday while dealing with a high ankle sprain. It's a good sign as he attempts to return to action, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll play in Week 4 against the Lions. The Saints may play it safe […]

Broncos Defense Allows 28 Points To Jets In Win
The Denver Broncos Defense came into their Week 4 matchup on Thursday night against the Jets missing their best playmakers in Von Miller, Jurrell Casey and A.J. Bouye. So it's not surprising that they put up a mediocre effort in terms of fantasy purposes, allowing 28 points to a woeful Jets offense and failing to […]

Brandon McManus Busy In Win Over Jets
Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus had easily his best game of the young 2020 season in the Thursday night victory over the Jets in Week 4. It helped that he and the Denver offense were facing a porous Jets Defense. McManus made all three of his field-goal attempts, including two 50-plus-yarders, and all four of […]

K.J. Hamler Injured On Thursday Night
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler (hamstring) suffered an injury in the 37-28 Thursday night win over the Jets in Week 4 and did not return to the contest. Hamler wasn't targeted at all in the passing game before his injury with quarterback Brett Rypien making his first career start, while teammate Tim Patrick […]

Jerry Jeudy Catches First Career Touchdown Against Jets
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught two of his four targets for 61 yards and his first career touchdown in the Week 4 win over the Jets on Thursday night. The two receptions weren't exactly what his fantasy managers were expecting against a poor Jets team, but they won't complain after he found […]

Tim Patrick Scores Another Touchdown In Week 4 Win
Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick led the team in catches (six), targets (seven) and receiving yards (113) while scoring his second touchdown in as many weeks in the 37-28 win over the Jets on Thursday night. Patrick was clearly quarterback Brett Rypien's favorite target in the passing game in this one, but it also […]

Royce Freeman Sees Five Touches In Week 4
Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman carried the ball just three times for six yards and caught both of his targets for six yards in the passing game in the Thursday night win over the Jets. Phillip Lindsay (toe) sat out his third straight game, but he's close to returning and should be back in […]

Melvin Gordon III Rushes For Over 100 Yards, Two Touchdowns
Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III had his best performance with his new team in Thursday night's 37-28 victory over the Jets, running the ball a season-high 23 times for 107 yards and two rushing touchdowns. He added two catches on three targets for 11 yards through the air. With Phillip Lindsay (toe) missing […]

Brett Rypien Has His Ups And Downs In Win Over Jets
Denver Broncos quarterback Brett Rypien, making his first NFL start on Thursday night against the Jets, had some good and bad moments in the 37-28 victory. Rypien went 19-for-31 for 242 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions (one returned for a touchdown) to help the team to their first win of the season. He made […]

Noah Fant Expected To Be Fine After Being Carted Off Thursday
Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle), who was carted off the field on Thursday night against the Jets with an ankle injury, is "all good" and "will be fine," according to a source. Fant's injury is considered minor, which should give him a good chance to suit up in Week 5 against the Patriots […]

Damon Arnette Has Thumb Surgery, Out 6-8 Weeks
Per his Instagram account, Las Vegas Raiders first-round rookie cornerback Damon Arnette (thumb) underwent surgery on his thumb on Thursday. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Arnette should be out for six to eight weeks. The rookie corner suffered the injury in the Week 3 loss to the Patriots after also fracturing the same thumb […]

Davante Adams Gets In A Limited Practice
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) returned to practice in a limited fashion on Thursday after sitting out of the team's Week 3 win over the Saints. Adams did very little (three catches, 36 yards) when he was hurt in Week 2, but he went off for 14 receptions, 156 yards and two […]

Allen Lazard Misses Practice With Core Injury
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (core), who stepped up with 146 receiving yards and a touchdown in Week 3 against the Saints, has a new core muscle injury and did not practice on Thursday. It helped that Davante Adams (hamstring) was inactive last Sunday night, but Lazard has gained a lot of chemistry […]

Joe Flacco Active Against Broncos
New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco (neck) is active for the Thursday night game against the Broncos as Sam Darnold's backup. With Flacco active, the team released quarterback Mike White. The 35-year-old Flacco is purely a clipboard holder for Darnold as long as he's healthy, which makes him useless in fantasy football. Never much of […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Working Through Back Injury
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (back) was added to the injury report on Thursday with a back injury that he's working through. Beckham was officially limited in Thursday's practice, so it looks like he still has a good shot at suiting up in Week 4 against the Cowboys. Through three games in 2020, […]

Tyron Smith Returns To Practice
Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (back) returned to practice on a limited basis on Thursday for the first time in a few weeks. Smith played in the season-opener but hasn't been on the field since, but it looks like he has a chance to return to the starting unit this Sunday against the Browns. […]

Marcus Davenport, Marshon Lattimore Banged Up
New Orleans Saints defensive end Marcus Davenport (elbow) and cornerback Marshon Lattimore (hamstring) didn't take part in the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. As key members of the team's defense, their statuses are something to watch heading into Week 4 against the Lions. Lattimore tweaked his hamstring in practice on Wednesday, […]

Leonard Fournette, Scotty Miller Miss Another Practice
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) and wide receiver Scotty Miller (groin, hip) are both missing practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Fournette suffered a minor ankle injury in the Week 3 win over the Broncos, but he'll need to get in at least a limited practice on Friday to have […]

Falcons Sign Elliott Fry
The Atlanta Falcons signed kicker Elliott Fry to their practice squad on Thursday with Younghoe Koo (groin) expected to miss time with a groin strain. There's a chance that Fry is elevated to the active roster in time to make his NFL debut on Monday night against the Packers. The Falcons have no other place […]

Kareem Hunt Won't Practice Thursday
Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that running back Kareem Hunt (groin) will not practice on Thursday. This is one to watch, as Hunt also missed practice on Wednesday. Even though Nick Chubb is the team's lead running back, Hunt has been involved enough in this offense to warrant weekly RB2 consideration. That would […]

DeAndre Hopkins Misses Another Practice
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (ankle) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday, and it's unclear when the issue arose for Hopkins. Nuk leads the league in catches (32) and yards (356) through the first three weeks, so his status should be monitored closely as we approach their Week 4 game against […]

Phillip Lindsay Unlikely To Play Thursday Night
Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) is now considered unlikely to play on Thursday night against the Jets, according to a source. Lindsay practiced this week and is on the trip and is feeling better, but the Broncos could play it safe and hold him out for another week. A final decision will likely […]

A.J. Brown Expected To Return In Week 5
Tennessee Titans star wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) had a chance to play in Week 4, but he's instead expected to return in Week 5 after the team had their Week 4 contest against the Steelers pushed back due to COVID-19 concerns. Brown has been dealing with a bone bruise and has missed the last […]

Marlon Humphrey Signs Five-Year Extension
Baltimore Ravens All-Pro cornerback Marlon Humphrey is signing a five-year, $98.75 million contract extension on Thursday, according to a source. The deal comes with $66 million in guarantees. Humphrey is one of the best corners in the league and had the best year of his career in 2019, racking up 65 tackles, three interceptions and […]

Jamal Adams, Seahawks Defense Ailing Heading Into Week 4
Seattle Seahawks safety Jamal Adams (groin), rookie linebacker Jordyn Brooks (knee), cornerback Quinton Dunbar (knee) and defensive end Benson Mayowa (groin) all missed practice on Wednesday. Adams is the top fantasy safety in the game in IDP leagues, but he could be in real danger of missing this Sunday's contest against Miami. The Seahawks Defense […]

Chris Carson Gets In A Limited Practice
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Carson is dealing with a minor knee sprain, but he certainly has a chance to face the Dolphins in Week 4 after getting in a limited practice to start the week. However, the oft-injured 26-year-old could be limited this Sunday […]

Tyrod Taylor, Joey Bosa Miss Practice Wednesday
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Tyrod Taylor (chest, ribs) and defensive end Joey Bosa (ankle, triceps) both missed practice on Wednesday. The Chargers aren't ruling Taylor out for the Week 4 matchup against the Buccaneers, but this isn't a good start to the week for the QB. He's recovering from a punctured lung that has caused […]

Sony Michel, Julian Edelman Limited Wednesday
New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (quadriceps) and wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Michel has dealt with plenty of injuries so far in his career, so this one is worth watching, but as of right now, he seems like a good bet to play in Week 4 […]

Cam Akers Considered Day-To-Day After Missed Practice
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that rookie running back Cam Akers (ribs) is considered day-to-day after missing practice on Wednesday. Akers missed the Week 3 loss to the Bills and should be considered highly questionable for the Week 4 matchup against the Giants. Malcolm Brown is also playing through a broken pinkie […]
