Jerry Jeudy Limping To The Finish Line

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has shown glimpses of his true potential in his first NFL season, but those glimpses have been few and far between lately. He's dealt with some injuries and has played through them, but perhaps they've slowed him down recently. Quarterback Drew Lock hasn't helped at all, as Jeudy […]

Tim Patrick Looking To Keep Touchdown Streak Alive

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick scored two touchdowns in the Week 14 win over the Panthers and has three scores in the last two games. Although rookie Jerry Jeudy has more upside in the long term, Patrick has been Denver's most consistent wideout in 2020, catching 43 passes for 643 yards and six touchdowns […]

Royce Freeman In Line For More Work This Weekend?

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman could be thrust into a larger workload for Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday if one of Melvin Gordon III (shoulder) or Phillip Lindsay (knee), who are both questionable, are limited or ruled out. However, both Gordon and Lindsay got in limited practices this week and should be […]

Phillip Lindsay Questionable Against Bills

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (hip) was limited in practice all week and is questionable for Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday. The fact that he practiced all week means he should be expected to play. Lindsay has missed some games due to injury this year and just hasn't been effective of late […]

Melvin Gordon III Questionable For Saturday

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday and is questionable for Week 15 against the Bills on Saturday. Despite the questionable tag, Gordon is expected to play. He's still sharing carries with Phillip Lindsay almost evenly, but the former Charger has been the more effective ball-carrier […]

Drew Lock Not Worth Trusting In Fantasy Playoffs

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock is coming off his best game, a Week 14 performance against the Panthers in which he went 21-for-27 for 280 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions. It broke a string of seven straight weeks with an interception, but Lock did lose a fumble in the game. It was a much-needed […]

Mike Gesicki Back At Practice Thursday

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Gesicki now has at least a chance to suit up in Week 15 against the Patriots. New England isn't the best matchup for tight ends -- they've allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to the […]

John Brown Won't Play Saturday

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver John Brown (ankle) will not play in Week 15 against the Broncos on Saturday. Brown remains on Injured Reserve. The 30-year-old still has a chance to return before the end of the regular season, though. Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley will remain Buffalo's top two […]

James Bradberry Going On COVID-19 List

The New York Giants are placing cornerback James Bradberry on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday, according to sources. One of the top cornerbacks in the league will now miss the Week 15 game against the Browns on Sunday night. The good news is that Bradberry was deemed a high-risk close contact, which should allow him […]

Christian McCaffrey Officially Doubtful For Saturday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (quadriceps, shoulder) is officially listed as doubtful for the Week 15 game against the Packers on Saturday. McCaffrey has played in just three games this year due to injury. You could say he's been a monumental bust for fantasy managers after he was taken with the first overall pick […]

Cubs Agree With Jonathan Holder

The Chicago Cubs agreed to terms with right-handed pitcher Jonathan Holder on Thursday on a 2021 non-guaranteed contract. The 27-year-old is 10-6 with 14 holds and a 4.38 ERA with 86 earned runs allowed in 176 2/3 innings over 157 major league games in his career, with all but two coming as a reliever. Holder […]

Daniel Jones Estimated As A Limited Practice Participant

The New York Giants didn't practice on Thursday, but quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) was estimated as a limited practice participant. Tight end Kaden Smith (knee) was also added to the injury report and was estimated to get in a limited practice as well. Jones' status for Sunday night against the Browns is undecided, and […]

Brandon Allen Won't Practice Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that quarterback Brandon Allen (knee) will not practice on Thursday, giving Ryan Finley the first-team repetitions. Allen was injured in Week 14 against the Cowboys and missed the end of the game. The team is still hopeful that he can play on Monday night against the Steelers, but […]

Antonio Gibson Misses Practice Thursday

Washington Football Team rookie running back Antonio Gibson (toe) sat out of practice on Thursday. Head coach Ron Rivera said he's "very hopeful" that Gibson will return at some point for the stretch run. The club signed Lamar Miller as an "insurance policy." Gibson suffered a painful turf-toe injury in Week 13 against the Steelers […]

Alex Smith Sitting Out Again Thursday

Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith (calf) will sit out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday as he deals with a calf strain that he suffered in the Week 14 win over the 49ers. Washington's plan all along was to take things slowly with Smith, as the priority is rest over practice […]

Matthew Stafford, Frank Ragnow Miss Practice Again

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (ribs) and center Frank Ragnow (throat) are both out of practice again on Thursday. Stafford is highly questionable for Week 15 against the Titans, but interim head coach Darrell Bevell said on Wednesday that he'd be comfortable with Stafford playing, even if he doesn't practice all week. The 32-year-old is […]

Scott Oberg Playing Catch

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said that relief pitcher Scott Oberg (arm) is playing catch again after missing all of the 2020 season due to blood clots in his right arm. "He's slowly picking up the intensity," Black said. "Feel really good about Scotty." Without setbacks, the 30-year-old could be back to full strength by […]

Rays Re-Sign Catcher Mike Zunino

The Tampa Bay Rays agreed to re-sign catcher Mike Zunino to a one-year deal worth $2 million on Wednesday. If the Rays decline his $ 7 million option for the 2022 season, he'll receive a $1 million buyout. The 29-year-old hit just .147/.238/.360 with four home runs and 28 RBI in 28 games during the […]

Johnny Cueto Won't Pitch In Winter Ball

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Johnny Cueto and the team have decided that he will not pitch in winter ball in his native Dominican Republic this year, given that the 2020 season was his first quasi-full season since returning from Tommy John surgery. Cueto was originally scheduled to pitch for the Estrellas Orientales. Manager Gabe […]

Anthony DeSclafani Signs With Giants

The San Francisco Giants signed right-handed pitcher Anthony DeSclafani to a one-year deal worth $6 million on Wednesday, according to a source. According to president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi, the team will continue to look for another top-tier starting pitcher. DeSclafani struggled in 2020, going 1-2 with a 7.22 ERA in nine games (seven […]

Justin Verlander Hopes to Pitch In 2021

Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander (elbow) is hoping to pitch at some point next year after having Tommy John surgery, according to general manager James Click. Click said Verlander "has every intention of trying to come back next year" but admitted that it's an "aggressive timetable." The right-hander had the surgery on Sept. 30, […]

Texans Won't Shut Down Deshaun Watson

Houston Texans interim head coach Romeo Crennel said that the team won't shut down quarterback Deshaun Watson for the final three games of the season after the club was eliminated from postseason contention last weekend. Watson is on pace to set career highs in completion percentage (68.9), passing yards per game (289.3), touchdown-to-interception ratio (25-6) […]

Jason Garrett Tests Positive For COVID-19

New York Giants offensive coordinator Jason Garrett tested positive for COVID-19 and will continue to work remotely this week. Tight ends coach Freddie Kitchens will serve as the team's offensive play-caller in Week 15 against the Browns on Sunday night. Quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) is not expected to play after tweaking his ankle in […]

Mike Williams Not Expected To Face Raiders

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (hamstring), who is questionable for Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders, is not expected to play, according to sources. Williams was injured in the Week 14 win over the Falcons and won't be ready to go on the short week. Keenan Allen (hamstring) will likely be limited if […]

Keenan Allen A Game-Time Decision

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) will be a true game-time decision for Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders, according to sources. Allen was sore in the Week 14 win over the Falcons, and the short week hasn't helped. If Allen does play, he will likely be limited, which would make for a […]

Austin Ekeler Expected To Play Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (quadriceps) is expected to play on Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders. Ekeler has yet to rush for 100 yards in a single game in 2020, but he should be considered a strong RB1 against a Raiders defense that will be missing four starters due to injury on […]

Drew Brees Has A Ways To Go

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (lung, ribs) was designated to return to practice on Wednesday, but head coach Sean Payton said that Brees has "a ways to go" in his recovery from 11 broken ribs and a punctured lung. "He's got a ways to go still, and he's someone we're not gonna just hurry […]

Ravens Defense Still Fighting Through Injuries

Baltimore Ravens defensive end Calais Campbell (calf) and cornerbacks Marcus Peters (calf) and Jimmy Smith (ribs, shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Campbell returned from the COVID-19 list to play in Week 13 against the Cowboys, but he's been dealing with this calf injury since Week 9 against the Colts. He doesn't have a sack […]

No Practice For Robert Woods

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods (thigh) was a non-participant at practice on Wednesday. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on Woods' practice status the rest of the week, as he'll be a must-start wideout with obvious WR1 upside this weekend against the winless Jets and their woeful defense if he's […]

Jamison Crowder Doesn't Practice Wednesday

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) didn't practice on Wednesday. Crowder battled through the injury in the Week 14 blowout loss to the Seahawks, but he was clearly not 100 percent and caught just two of five targets for a season-low seven yards. Against a Rams Defense in Week 15 that is allowing […]
