Cardinals Defense Expected To Sign Domata Peko

The Arizona Cardinals are expected to sign veteran defensive tackle Domata Peko to their 53-man roster when he passes the league's COVID-19 protocols, according to a source. Peko will help fill the void created by the season-ending injury to defensive tackle Corey Peters (knee). Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips (hamstring) will miss his second straight game […]

Isaiah Simmons' Role To Expand

Arizona Cardinals rookie linebacker Isaiah Simmons has been eased into his responsibilities after being taken with the eighth overall pick in the draft, but he's about to see a much bigger role, and it could happen on Thursday night against the Seahawks. "He's been patient enough to wait his turn, but it's time," defensive coordinator […]

Broncos Defense Fading Heading Into Week 11

The Denver Broncos Defense performed above expectations in the first half of the season, but they are heading in the wrong direction as they march into the second half and a Week 11 meeting with the Dolphins. They've allowed 30-plus points in each of the last four games, including a 40-point showing by the Chiefs […]

Brandon McManus A Fringe Starter Against Miami

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus has made 94.7 percent of his field-goal tries (18-for-19) this year and 94.1 percent of his extra-point tries (16-for-17) in nine games this season. His lone field-goal miss came from 50-plus yards, too. McManus also hasn't missed a kick since he shanked an extra point in Week 7 against the […]

DaeSean Hamilton Still Not On The Fantasy Radar

Denver Broncos wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton had four catches for 33 yards and a touchdown on a season-high six targets in the Week 10 blowout loss to the Raiders, but he should still remain on the waiver wire in the majority of fantasy leagues. Hamilton has scored both of his touchdowns in the last three […]

K.J. Hamler Becoming More Of A Factor

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler has seen 10 targets in back-to-back weeks and caught four passes for 50 yards in the Week 10 loss to the division-rival Raiders. The 20 targets in the last two weeks shows that Hamler has earned a more prominent role alongside fellow rookie Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick. […]

Tim Patrick Has Become Denver's No. 2 Wideout

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick has fallen behind rookie Jerry Jeudy as the team's top wideout in recent weeks. However, Patrick still managed to catch four of his six targets for 61 yards in the blowout loss to the Raiders last week. If quarterback Drew Lock (ribs) doesn't play against the Dolphins this Sunday, […]

Phillip Lindsay Hard To Trust Heading Into Week 11

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay barely put up any points for fantasy managers last week against the Raiders, running the ball a season-low four times for two yards and failing to catch his only target in the passing game. We'd expect Denver to try and get their running game going against the Dolphins in […]

Melvin Gordon III Could Be Leaned On More

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III hasn't found the end zone since Week 7 and has seen single-digit carries in two of the last three games. The team's backfield has been a mess since both Gordon and Phillip Lindsay have been in the fold, although Gordon continues to be the 1A to Lindsay's 1B. […]

Javon Kinlaw Placed On COVID-19 List

The San Francisco 49ers placed rookie defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday. The first-round has recorded 22 tackles (10 solo), three quarterback hits, three passes defensed and 1.5 sacks in 10 games (eight starts) to begin his NFL career. Even if Kinlaw actually tested positive for COVID-19, he should have plenty […]

Trent Brown Could Return To Practice Next Week

There is optimism that Las Vegas Raiders offensive tackle Trent Brown could be cleared to resume working out as early as next week, according to a source. Brown is determined to return and play for the Raiders after he was put on the Reserve/COVID-19 list for the second time this year on Nov. 5. The […]

Nationals Are A Potential Suitor For J.T. Realmuto

The Philadelphia Phillies would love to bring back catcher J.T. Realmuto, but they are "discouraged" about their chances of re-signing the All-Star backstop. The Washington Nationals are a potential suitor for Realmuto, as well as the division-rival Mets. When Realmuto was on the trade block two years ago, Washington was one of the clubs that […]

Astros Showing Interest In Marcell Ozuna

The Houston Astros have expressed interest in free-agent outfielder Marcell Ozuna. After a big season with the Braves in 2020, at least 10 teams are interested in signing Ozuna. The Astros could sign Jackie Bradley Jr. to play center field with George Springer likely leaving in free agency, but they could also target Ozuna for […]

Chris Carson Unlikely To Play Thursday

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday night against the Cardinals, but he is unlikely to play, according to a source. Carson got in some practice time this week, but it looks like the Seahawks will play it safe on a short week. The 26-year-old has been out since […]

Tyler Lockett Will Play Thursday Night

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday night against the Cardinals, but head coach Pete Carroll said that Lockett will play. Fantasy managers need to keep Lockett in their starting lineups. He has failed to live up to expectations in five of his last six games, with the one […]

49ers Claim Takkarist McKinley Off Waivers

The San Francisco 49ers claimed former Falcons first-round defensive end Takkarist McKinley off waivers from the Bengals on Wednesday, according to a source. The Bengals claimed McKinley off waivers from the Falcons but put him back on waivers when he failed a physical. The 25-year-old hasn't played since Week 7 due to a groin injury […]

Nolan Arenado Could Be An Option For Mets

Colorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado could be an option for the New York Mets and could be more attractive as a trade target than Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor because of his contract. Arenado and Lindor can become free agents after the 2021 season, but Arenado would need to opt out of the $164 million […]

Raiders Defense Hit Hard By COVID-19

Nearly the entire Las Vegas Raiders starting defense is going on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday because of high-risk close contacts with defensive end Clelin Ferrell, who tested positive for coronavirus. However, because they are just close contacts, they will be eligible to play against the division-rival Chiefs on Sunday night in Week 11 if […]

Matthew Stafford Non-Committal About Playing In Week 11

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) isn't committing to playing in Week 11 against the Panthers after partially tearing a ligament in his right thumb in the Week 10 win over Washington. "Just taking it day to day. Trying to figure out if I can get through it. ... See if I can go out […]

Chris Harris Jr. Returning To Practice

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Chris Harris Jr. (foot), who has been out since Week 3 with a foot injury, will return to practice on Wednesday. Harris went on the short-term Injured Reserve after suffering the injury earlier this year, but he could make his return in Week 11 against the Jets. The Bolts will welcome […]

Matthew Stafford, Marvin Jones, Danny Amendola Miss Practice

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) and wide receivers Marvin Jones Jr. and Danny Amendola (hip) missed practice on Wednesday. Stafford has a partially torn ligament in his right thumb, but he's expected to play through it in Week 11 against the Panthers. The veteran QB is as tough as they come and could still […]

Kenny Golladay Returns To Practice Wednesday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hip) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the last two games. It's a good sign that Golladay will be able to return in Week 11 against the Panthers, but fantasy managers will want to see him make it through the week with full practice participation before throwing him […]

Clelin Ferrell Likely Out For Raiders Defense

Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Clelin Ferrell tested positive for COVID-19 and is likely to miss the Week 11 game against the division-rival Chiefs. Ferrell was placed on the COVID-19 list on Tuesday. Safety Lamarcus Joyner, who was also put on the list, was deemed a high-risk close contact. If Joyner tests negative, he could […]

Teams Interested In Steven Brault

Teams have been calling about Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Steven Brault, according to a source. Brault is attractive because he carries three years of control and had a career-best 3.38 ERA in 2020. The 28-year-old is also in his first year of arbitration eligibility. He was arguably the team's best starter last year in the shortened […]

Christian McCaffrey Officially Ruled Out For Week 11

The Carolina Panthers have officially ruled out running back Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) for Week 11 against the Lions. McCaffrey returned in Week 8 after being on Injured Reserve with a high-ankle sprain suffered in Week 2, but he'll now miss his second straight game with a shoulder ailment suffered in his return in Week 8. […]

Giants Fire Offensive Line Coach Mark Colombo

The New York Giants fired offensive line coach Mark Colombo on Wednesday and are bringing in longtime NFL assistant Dave DeGuglielmo to replace him, according to sources. First-round left tackle Andrew Thomas hasn't really developed up front, which appears to be the primary motivation for this move. Head coach Joe Judge was spending more time […]

Russell Wilson Expecting Pressure From Cardinals

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson expects the Cardinals Defense to bring plenty of pressure in their rematch on Thursday night in Week 11. The Cardinals brought the pressure in the second half of their win over Seattle in the first meeting, sacking him twice in overtime and totaling nine QB hits on Wilson. The Cardinals […]

Steelers Looking To Improve Running Game

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said the team has had a lull with their running game in recent weeks, as they averaged 136.8 yards on the ground in their first five games, a number that has dropped to 58 yards per game. They had a season-low 44 rushing yards against a bad Bengals run […]

Emmanuel Ogbah Wants To Stay With Dolphins

Miami Dolphins defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah, who signed a two-year, $15 million deal in the offseason, said he wants to stay in Miami for the long haul. Ogbah has broke out in 2020 with eight sacks in nine games, trailing only Myles Garrett and T.J. Watt in the AFC. The 27-year-old former first-round pick of […]

Cody Parkey, Jack Conklin Placed On COVID-19 List

The Cleveland Browns are placing kicker Cody Parkey, offensive tackle Jack Conklin and long snapper Charley Hughlett on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday.
