Steelers Defense Won't Have Joe Haden Sunday

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Bills on Sunday night. The 31-year-old three-time Pro Bowler's absence will make life easier on MVP candidate Josh Allen and wide receiver Stefon Diggs as they look to give Pittsburgh their second straight loss. Haden hasn't really been relevant in […]

Tyrann Mathieu Questionable To Face Dolphins

Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu (hip) is questionable for Week 14 against the Dolphins. Mathieu popped up on the injury report on Friday and was able to get in a limited practice, so he has a chance to be active. The Honey Badger has been a top-15 defensive back in IDP leagues, racking up […]

Brandin Cooks, Keke Coutee Questionable Against Bears

Houston Texans wide receivers Brandin Cooks (foot, neck) and Keke Coutee (knee) are both questionable for Week 14 against the Bears. Cooks was limited in practice all week, however, so we'd expect him to play against Chicago as the team's top receiver. Coutee practiced in full the last two days, so he should play as […]

Frank Gore Officially Questionable

New York Jets running back Frank Gore (concussion), who remains in the league's concussion protocol, is listed as questionable for Week 14 against the Seahawks. However, Gore was listed as a full practice participant on Friday and could be cleared in time to play on Sunday. If the veteran back can't get the green light, […]

DeAndre Hopkins, Kenyan Drake Questionable

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (back, neck), running back Kenyan Drake (hip) and linebacker Isaiah Simmons (back, neck) are questionable for Week 14 against the Giants. Hopkins is expected to play, so he should be penciled into all starting lineups in single-year leagues despite a tough matchup with cornerback James Bradberry. The All-Pro wideout […]

Kenny Golladay Out Again

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hip) and rookie cornerback Jeff Okudah (groin) have both been ruled out for Week 14 against the Packers. It will be Golladay's sixth straight game on the sidelines due to injury. The fact that he didn't practice all week makes it seem like he's not close to returning for […]

D'Andre Swift, Matthew Stafford Questionable Against Packers

Detroit Lions rookie running back D'Andre Swift (illness) and quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) are both questionable for Week 14 against the Packers. Swift and Stafford were both full participants in practice on Friday, meaning they should both play on Sunday. Because Swift has been out since Week 10, he faces the prospect of being eased […]

Giants Optimistic On Daniel Jones

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that he's hoping to make a final decision on Friday night on whether quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) will play in Week 14 against the Cardinals. "I'm fairly optimistic," Judge said. "At the same time, there's a ways to go." Jones ramped up his activity in practice on […]

Jerry Jeudy On The WR3/4 Borderline

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy hasn't finished as a top-50 fantasy wide receiver in any of the last three games. He got a pass in the Week 12 debacle against the Saints, but he didn't do much better against the Chiefs last week with quarterback Drew Lock back in the fold, catching only […]

Phillip Lindsay Healthy Heading Into Sunday

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (knee) was questionable with a knee injury last week before playing against the Chiefs, but he practiced in full all week and was taken off the final injury report for Week 14 against the Panthers. Even while playing through injury, Denver gave Lindsay 14 carries last week, which he […]

Drew Lock Can't Be Trusted In Week 14

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (back) was on the injury report this week, but he practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and is good to go for Week 14 against the Panthers. By this point, fantasy managers should know by now that they can't trust Lock as anything more than a low-end QB2 in […]

Daniel Jones, Blake Martinez Questionable To Face Cardinals

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring), defensive back Darnay Holmes (knee), linebacker Blake Martinez (back) and offensive tackle Matt Peart (ankle) are questionable for Week 14 against the Cardinals. Jones put in a full practice on Friday, but he could come down to a game-time decision on Sunday morning. Against a middle-of-the-pack Cardinals Defense […]

Tyler Eifert Receives Questionable Tag

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tyler Eifert (shoulder) is questionable for Week 14 against the Titans. Eifert has a chance to suit up this week and will be a potential QB2 streamer in deeper leagues if he's active. He's seen 10 targets the last two games with Mike Glennon at quarterback, catching nine passes for 61 […]

Kyle Rudolph Doubtful, Irv Smith Jr. Questionable

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph (foot) is doubtful for Week 14 against the Buccaneers, while tight end Irv Smith Jr. (back) is listed as questionable. Rudolph missed practice all week and is unlikely to play. Smith was at least limited in practice the last two days, so he has a chance to suit up […]

Eric Kendricks Won't Play Against Buccaneers

Minnesota Vikings linebacker Eric Kendricks (calf) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Buccaneers. Kendricks will be missing his second straight game with the leg injury. He's been a top-five fantasy linebacker in IDP leagues this year, so fantasy managers will need to go in another direction. Kendricks has 69 total tackles, six […]

Antonio Gibson Ruled Out Against 49ers

Washington Football Team rookie running back Antonio Gibson (toe) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the 49ers. The impressive rookie suffered a painful case of turf toe early in the Week 13 win over the Steelers and never returned to action. Turf-toe injuries can linger, especially for running backs, so don't consider it […]

Salvon Ahmed Out Against Chiefs

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said that rookie running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) and offensive guard Ereck Flowers (ankle) will not play in Week 14 against the Chiefs. The 21-year-old Ahmed hasn't played since Week 11. He was trending up as the team's lead back with Myles Gaskin (knee) on Injured Reserve in Weeks […]

Continue To Avoid The Broncos Defense

The Denver Broncos Defense put on a nice display against the Chiefs high-octane offense last Sunday night in the Week 13 loss, but despite the impressive display in slowing down Patrick Mahomes, they still barely moved the needle fantasy wise. They'll catch a break in Week 14 with Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (quadriceps, shoulder) […]

Brandon McManus A Victim Of Subpar Offense

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus would be an elite fantasy kicker if he was in a different offense this year. He's missed only two of is 24 field-goal attempts in 12 games, and both of those misses came from 50-plus yards. McManus has been perfect everywhere else, outside of missing his lone extra point in […]

Christian McCaffrey Doubtful For Week 14

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (quadriceps, shoulder) is doubtful for Week 14 against the Broncos after not practicing on Friday. McCaffrey tweaked his quad working out last week and will now miss his fourth straight game. The 24-year-old All-Pro also missed six weeks earlier this year with a high-ankle sprain, so he's been an […]

Noah Fant Could Deliver Against Panthers

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant scored in the first two weeks of the season but hasn't been able to visit the end zone since. He hasn't been terrible since, but he's leaving a lot to be desired from his fantasy managers. Fant led the team in receiving in the Week 13 loss to the […]

K.J. Hamler Has Been A Non-Factor Lately

In the last two games, Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler has a grand total of two catches on five targets for 16 yards. Excluding the debacle in Week 12 against the Saints, Hamler has six receptions on 11 targets for 51 yards in his last two performances with quarterback Drew Lock active. The […]

Tim Patrick Coming Off Two-Touchdown Game

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick had just four catches for 44 yards in the Week 13 loss to the Chiefs, but he rewarded his fantasy managers by finding the end zone twice to move his total to five touchdowns on the season. Patrick has been outperforming expectations all season long with Courtland Sutton (knee) […]

Melvin Gordon III Looking To Keep Momentum

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III had his best game of the season in last week's loss to the Chiefs, rushing for a season-high 131 yards on 15 carries. He also had one catch for 11 yards. The problem is that Phillip Lindsay continues to be a thorn in Gordon's side with the two […]

Mike Evans Good To Go For Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) had a hamstring scare earlier in the week but that the wideout will be good to go for Week 14 against the Vikings after he returned to practice on Friday. Evans has been seeing slightly more targets over the last three […]

Steelers Activate Maurkice Pouncey From COVID-19 List

The Pittsburgh Steelers activated center Maurkice Pouncey from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Pouncey has missed the team's last two games against the Ravens and the Washington Football Team, and the offense has struggled in both of those games. But the Steelers are getting both Pouncey and running back James Conner back in Week 14 […]

Frank Gore Remains In Concussion Protocol

New York Jets running back Frank Gore (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury on the first drive of the game last week. At this point so late in the week, it's unlikely that Gore will be available to play in Week 14 against the Seahawks. Ty Johnson stepped up […]

Jamison Crowder Questionable Against Seahawks

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (calf) is questionable for Week 14 against the Seahawks. Crowder was added to the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice, as he's been fighting through soft-tissue injuries for most of the year. With rookie Denzel Mims out with personal issues, Crowder would be in line […]

Curtis Samuel, Shaq Thompson Activated From COVID-19 List

The Carolina Panthers activated wide receiver Curtis Samuel, linebacker Shaq Thompson and defensive tackle Derrick Brown from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. All three are practicing after having been deemed high-risk close contacts. D.J. Moore tested positive early this week and won't play in Week 14 against Denver, giving Samuel and Robby Anderson more upside. […]

Cubs Could Hang On To Kris Bryant

Chicago Cubs president Jed Hoyer said he "absolutely" sees a path in which third baseman Kris Bryant could remain with the team in 2021. Bryant has been available in a trade for more than a year with the Cubs looking to bring down their payroll, but Hoyer said there's no trade imminent for the former […]
