Brandon McManus Has A Rough Game Against Carolina

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus didn't attempt a single field goal in the Week 14 win over the Panthers, and he missed two of his four extra-point attempts as well to leave his fantasy managers pretty disappointed in a game in which quarterback Drew Lock threw four touchdown passes. The theme of the 29-year-old not […]

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (illness) was forced to leave the Week 14 game against the Panthers with a non-COVID-19-related illness.

Jakeem Grant Sr. Considered Week-To-Week

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring), who left the Week 14 loss to the Chiefs early, is considered week-to-week, according to a source.

Tyreek Hill Is Fine After Hamstring Cramp

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (hamstring) pulled up and grabbed his leg in the Week 14 win over the Dolphins, but it was just a cramp and he should be fine for Week 15 against the Saints. After a down week against the Broncos in Week 13, Hill bounced back for his fantasy […]

Seattle Seahawks defensive back Jamal Adams raised his sack total to 8.5 on the season in the blowout win over the Jets in Week 14, breaking the record for most sacks in a single season by a defensive back. Adams has missed some time this year due to injury in his first season in Seattle, […]

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (rib) was in a lot of pain following a rib injury that knocked him out of the Week 14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Alex Smith Dealing With Calf Strain

Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith (calf) was diagnosed with a calf strain after leaving the Week 14 win over the 49ers.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Zane Gonzalez (back) is listed as questionable for Week 14 against the Giants. Gonzalez first showed up on the injury report on Friday and was limited in practice.

Nationals Interested In Kyle Schwarber

The Washington Nationals are interested in free-agent outfielder Kyle Schwarber, who could add some nice pop to the middle of their lineup despite posting a .701 OPS during the shortened 2020 season.
