Melvin Gordon III Has A Lower Floor As RB2 Against Patriots

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III had his best game of the season in Week 4 against the Jets, running the ball 23 times for 107 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught two of his three targets for 11 yards. The performance was a combination of a great matchup and the fact that […]

Brett Rypien Could Get Another Start In Week 5

Denver Broncos quarterback Brett Rypien could be under center again in Week 5 on Monday night against the Patriots with Drew Lock (shoulder) questionable to play. As expected, Rypien was very up and down in his first career start against the Jets last week, going 19-for-31 for 242 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in […]

Drew Lock Questionable For Monday Night

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Patriots. Lock may have a better shot at returning with the game moving back a day due to COVID-19 concerns, but he'll still probably be a game-time decision. The second-year quarterback injured […]

Jets Activate Le'Veon Bell From Injured Reserve

The New York Jets activated running back Le'Veon Bell (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday. In corresponding moves, the team signed offensive lineman Jimmy Murray to the active roster and elevated quarterback Mike White and defensive back Lamar Jackson from the practice squad. Linebacker Alec Ogletree and wide receiver Josh Malone were also released. Bell […]

Cam Newton, Stephon Gilmore Not Practicing Saturday

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said that quarterback Cam Newton and cornerback Stephon Gilmore won't practice on Saturday after testing positive for COVID-19, but he ignored questions about who would start under center on Monday night against the Broncos if Newton isn't available for the second straight week. New England had no new […]

Carlos Hyde Questionable For Sunday Night

Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde (shoulder) is listed as questionable for the Week 5 Sunday night game against the Vikings. Hyde was injured in Week 3 and sat out of last weekend's win over the Dolphins. If he misses another game, Travis Homer and rookie DeeJay Dallas will fight for scraps behind backfield leader […]

Deebo Samuel, Raheem Mostert Questionable For Week 5

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (illness) and running back Raheem Mostert (knee) are both questionable for Week 5 against the Dolphins. Samuel missed practice each of the last two days, while Mostert was a limited participant all week. Samuel doesn't have COVID-19, so he has a chance to play, but it's concerning that […]

John Ross III Not Expected To Play Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross III (illness) is listed as doubtful to play in Week 5 against the Ravens. Ross was unable to practice each of the last two days. The 25-year-old speedster hasn't been active since Week 2 and has only two catches on seven targets for 17 yards in two games this […]

Jordan Akins Questionable For Week 5

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins (ankle, concussion) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Jaguars. Akins was limited in practice the last two days, so it looks like he has a good chance to suit up this weekend. He's caught 14 of his 15 targets for 168 yards and a touchdown through […]

Josh Allen Questionable For Jaguars Defense

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Josh Allen (knee), linebacker Myles Jack (ankle), rookie cornerback C.J. Henderson (shoulder) and defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale (ankle) are questionable for Week 5 against the Texans. Allen didn't practice all week, so the Jags could be without their top pass-rusher this Sunday. You'll need to go in another direction if you've […]

Henry Ruggs III Questionable Against Chiefs

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Henry Ruggs III (hamstring, knee) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Chiefs. Ruggs practiced in full on both Thursday and Friday, so he's expected to make his return against KC. However, the first-round rookie hasn't played since Week 2, so he might not play a full […]

Chris Hogan Questionable For Week 5

New York Jets wide receiver Chris Hogan (knee, ribs) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Cardinals. Hogan was limited in practice all week, so we'd expect him to suit up this Sunday. The former Patriots receiver surely has a path to more targets with Breshad Perriman (ankle) likely to miss another game, […]

Steven Sims Jr. Ruled Out Against Rams

Washington Football Team wide receiver Steven Sims Jr. (toe) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Rams. Washington actually placed Sims on Injured Reserve on Friday, which means he'll miss at least the next three weeks. The 23-year-old hasn't played since Week 3 and has only six catches on eight targets for 103 […]

Jamal Adams To Return After Bye Week

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that safety Jamal Adams (groin) should be ready to return after the team's Week 6 bye. Adams is being held out of action in Week 5 against the Vikings. The All-Pro safety had made a big impact for Seattle through two and a half games before his injury, […]

Cardinals-Jets On Track To Play Sunday

The presumptive positive COVID-19 test from a New York Jets player on Friday turned out to be a false positive. The Jets sent all their players and coaches home from the facilities on Friday out of an abundance of caution, but the team has since released a statement, saying, "We look forward to our game […]

DeSean Jackson, Alshon Jeffery Ruled Out For Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and Alshon Jeffery (foot) have been ruled out for Week 5 against the Steelers. Cornerback Avonte Maddox (ankle) is also out. With rookie Jalen Reagor (thumb) and Dallas Goedert (ankle) on Injured Reserve, the Eagles are really hurting for pass-catchers. Greg Ward Jr. and rookie John Hightower figure […]

Julio Jones Questionable Against Panthers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Panthers. Jones hasn't practiced all week, however, making him more unlikely to play after aggravating his hamstring injury last Monday. Jones' fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to suit up this weekend, and if he does, there's a good […]

Chase Young Questionable For Week 5

Washington Football Team rookie defensive end Chase Young (groin) is questionable for Week 5 against the Rams after sitting out last week. Young was limited in practice on Thursday and returned to a full practice on Friday, so it's looking like he'll be able to return this weekend. It's great news for a Washington defensive […]

Trenton Cannon To Serve As Mike Davis' Backup

With Carolina Panthers running back Reggie Bonnafon (ankle) going on Injured Reserve this week, head coach Matt Rhule said that running back Trenton Cannon will serve as Mike Davis' backup. All-Pro Christian McCaffrey (ankle) is also on IR, so Carolina's running back depth is being tested. It's worth noting, but Cannon is unlikely to receive […]

Russell Okung To Return In Week 5

Carolina Panthers left tackle Russell Okung (groin) will play in Week 5 against the Falcons after missing the last two games. Cornerback Eli Apple has been ruled out. The return of Okung is good news for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who had his best game of the season in Week 4, throwing for 276 yards and […]

Joe Mixon Questionable For Week 5

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (shin) has been declared questionable for Week 5 against the Ravens. Mixon put in limited practices each of the last two days, so barring something unforeseen, he should suit up on Sunday. He's coming off an explosive 181-yard, three-touchdown performance that helped his fantasy managers coast to a victory […]

Jimmy Garoppolo To Start Against Dolphins

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) will start in Week 5 against the Dolphins. Garoppolo will return to the fold after missing two games with a high ankle sprain. With running back Raheem Mostert also likely to be back, the signal-caller should have all of his weapons around […]

David Njoku Expected To Be Activated For This Weekend

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) made it through the week of practice healthy and is expected to be activated from Injured Reserve for the Week 5 game against the Colts. Njoku has always been interesting from a fantasy perspective, but his ceiling isn't very high with Austin Hooper also in the mix in […]

Marquise Brown, Mark Andrews Questionable Against Bengals

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (knee) and tight end Mark Andrews (thigh) are listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Bengals. Offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley (hip, shoulder), defensive end Derek Wolfe (elbow), defensive tackle Justin Madubuike (knee) and cornerbacks Marcus Peters (thigh) and Jimmy Smith (knee) are also questionable. Brown has yet to […]

Lamar Jackson 100 Percent Despite Being Questionable

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) is "100 percent" and will play on Sunday against the Bengals despite being listed as questionable on the final injury report, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Jackson missed practice on Wednesday with a minor knee injury and sat out on Thursday with an illness, but he wasn't showing […]

Chargers Put Austin Ekeler On Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Chargers placed running back Austin Ekeler (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Friday and promoted Tyron Johnson to their active roster in a corresponding move. The team also signed former Dolphins and Jets running back Kalen Ballage to their practice squad. Ekeler could miss anywhere from four to six weeks, so placing him […]

Darius Leonard, Anthony Castonzo Ruled Out For Week 5

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that linebacker Darius Leonard (groin) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (rib) have been ruled out for Week 5 against the Browns. Leonard, who is a must-start in IDP leagues at his position when healthy, suffered a groin injury late in last week's win over the Bears and played […]

Geno Atkins To Make Season Debut For Bengals Defense

Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Geno Atkins (shoulder) is expected to make his season debut against the Ravens in Week 5, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Atkins missed the first four games with a shoulder injury that he suffered at the end of training camp. He was the team's only Pro Bowl representative last year […]

DeVante Parker Taken Off Injury Report

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) has been taken off the final injury report for Week 5 against the 49ers, showing that he's made good progress from a hamstring injury that has limited his explosiveness in the first month of the season. Parker had 10 catches on 12 targets for 110 yards last week […]

Byron Jones Expected To Return For Dolphins Defense

Miami Dolphins cornerback Byron Jones (groin) is expected to play in Week 5 against the 49ers after missing the last two games with a groin injury. Jones practiced in full on Thursday and Friday. It will be a boost for the team's man-to-man-heavy defense that will be taking on a Niners unit that is at […]
