Broncos Defense Has A Tough Task In Week 6

The Denver Broncos Defense caught a tough break with their game against the New England Patriots moving from Week 5 to Week 6 due to positive COVID-19 tests in the Patriots organization. If the game had been played last Monday, it's likely that New England would've been without quarterback Cam Newton, who missed the prior […]

Kenny Clark Returning For Packers Defense

Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark (groin) is set to return in Week 6 against the Buccaneers after being out since he suffered a groin injury in the season-opener. Cornerback Kevin King (quadriceps), who was injured in Week 4, will be a game-time decision. Clark's return is good news for a Packers […]

Noah Fant Receives Questionable Tag

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) was a limited practice participant all week and is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. Head coach Vic Fangio said earlier in the week that Fant has a 50-50 shot to play on Sunday. Check back on Sunday morning, as Fant is shaping up to […]

K.J. Hamler Ruled Out For Week 6

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Patriots. Hamler wouldn't have played last week either and hasn't practiced since suffering the injury in the Week 4 win against the Jets. The 21-year-old rookie has the potential to be an […]

Phillip Lindsay Could Be Lead Back In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) practiced in full all week and will make his return in Week 6 against the Patriots after getting injured in the season-opener. Lindsay said he is 100 percent healthy, and he could be the lead back on Sunday with Melvin Gordon III battling an illness and also in […]

Melvin Gordon III Questionable For Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (illness) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. Gordon didn't practice on Friday due to a non-COVID-19-related illness, but there's also his DUI hanging over his head going into this weekend's game. Even if he plays on Sunday, he'll be facing a two- or three-game […]

Brett Rypien Should Be Avoided If He Makes Another Start

There remains a chance that Denver Broncos quarterback Brett Rypien receives another start in Week 6 against the Patriots with Drew Lock (shoulder) questionable for Sunday's contest. It's looking more like Lock will make his return since suffering a right shoulder injury in Week 2, though. Rypien was up-and-down in the Week 4 win over […]

Drew Lock Questionable Against Patriots

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) practiced in full all week but is still listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. We'd say Lock is on the right side of questionable after getting in full practices this week. The second-year QB has been out since he was injured in Week 2, but it's […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Good To Go For Sunday

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) is off the final injury report and is good to go for Week 6 against the division-rival Rams. Garoppolo missed several games with a high ankle sprain and aggravated the ankle in the Week 5 disappointing loss to the Dolphins, but he said his ankle feels great and […]

A.J. Minter To Start For Braves In Game 5

Former Atlanta Braves left-handed closer A.J. Minter will make his first career start in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers on Friday as the Braves look to close out the series and advance to the World Series for the first time since 1999. It will be a bullpen game for […]

Mike Evans, Chris Godwin Will Play Versus Packers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Mike Evans (ankle) and Chris Godwin (hamstring) were taken off the final injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Packers. Evans hasn't been 100 percent for most of the year, but he hasn't missed a game and has scored in each of his five games. However, aside […]

Davante Adams Will Return Against Buccaneers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) was taken off the final injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Buccaneers. The Packers played it safe with their top wideout, holding him out since Week 2 due to a hamstring strain. Green Bay and quarterback Aaron Rodgers barely missed a beat without […]

Diontae Johnson, David DeCastro Ruled Out

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (back) and veteran right guard David DeCastro (abdomen) have both been ruled out for Week 6 against the Browns. Rookie Chase Claypool, who broke out with four touchdowns last weekend, should once again have an increased role in the passing game with Johnson out. Rookie Kevin Dotson will start […]

Patriots Placing James Ferentz On COVID-19 List

The New England Patriots are placing center James Ferentz on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, according to a source. The Patriots are still on schedule to face the Broncos in Week 6 on Sunday, but if the game winds up being played, quarterback Cam Newton will be taking snaps from someone else. It's something to […]

Mo Alie-Cox Ruled Out Against Bengals

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (knee) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Bengals. Alie-Cox has been a surprise fantasy contributor early in the season, going for 11 catches, 194 yards and two touchdowns in five games, but he's become more of a non-factor in Indy's offense now that Trey Burton is […]

Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson Ruled Out

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and offensive tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) have been ruled out for Week 6 against the Ravens. Jeffery has yet to play in 2020, but he's been limited in practices the last couple weeks and could make his debut in Week 7. Jackson will miss […]

Julio Jones Set To Return In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) isn't on the final injury report for the Week 6 game against the Vikings, meaning he's likely to return to the field on Sunday after a one-game absence. The 31-year-old has aggravated the same hamstring injury multiple times this year, though, so hopefully it doesn't become a problem […]

Tyler Larsen Placed On COVID-19 List

The Carolina Panthers placed offensive lineman Tyler Larsen on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday and also sent defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (ankle) to Injured Reserve with a high ankle sprain. Despite the positive test from Larsen, the team's home game in Week 6 against the Bears remains on schedule. Gross-Matos suffered his injury in the […]

Baker Mayfield, Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry Questionable

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (chest) and wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. (illness) and Jarvis Landry (hip, ribs) are listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Steelers. Mayfield practiced this week and said earlier this week that he'll play in a big divisional contest against Pittsburgh. The Steelers Defense has been strong this year, […]

Dalvin Cook Ruled Out Against Falcons

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (groin) has been officially ruled out for Week 6 against the Falcons. This doesn't come as a huge surprise, as Cook didn't practice all week and will be rested ahead of the team's Week 7 bye. Backup Alexander Mattison will be an excellent plug-and-play RB1 this Sunday against the […]

Melvin Gordon III Out Friday With Illness

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (illness) is not practicing on Friday because of a non-COVID-19-related illness, according to a source. Gordon has practiced this week, but there remains the possibility that the league gives him a two- or three-game suspension after he was charged with a DUI earlier this week. He could appeal […]

Mike Evans, Leonard Fournette, Scotty Miller Up In The Air

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that wide receivers Mike Evans (ankle) and Scotty Miller (groin, hip) and running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) will likely be game-time decisions for Week 6 against the Packers. Evans continues to play through nagging injuries and he was a limited practice participant on Thursday, so we'd expect […]

Chris Godwin Should Be Good For Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians thinks that wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) will play in Week 6 against the Packers. "I think Godwin's going to go," Arians said. Godwin will likely be questionable after getting in limited practices this week, but it sounds as though he's trending in the right direction. He's missed […]

Patriots Cancel Practice After Another Positive COVID-19 Test

The New England Patriots are canceling their practice on Friday after a positive COVID-19 test, according to a source. There is also a second test that they are awaiting to confirm as a positive. This now puts the team's Week 6 matchup with the Broncos in doubt after it was already moved back from the […]

Dustin May To Start Game 5 Against Braves

Los Angeles Dodgers rookie right-hander Dustin May will start Game 5 of the National League Championship Series on Friday against the Braves with the Dodgers trying to stave off elimination in the series. Gingergaard went 3-1 with a 2.57 ERA in 12 outings (10 starts) during the regular season, and he hasn't give up a […]

DeSean Jackson Has A Chance To Play Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson is optimistic about wide receiver DeSean Jackson (hamstring) making his return in Week 6 against the Ravens. Jackson has been limited in practice this week, but he's on track to return after missing the last two games. Even if the oft-injured deep threat returns on Sunday, he'll be hard […]

Dwayne Haskins Jr. Returns To Facility

Washington Football Team quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. (illness) returned to the team's facility on Friday and is back in meetings after he missed time this week with a gastrointestinal issue. Haskins remains off the fantasy radar, though, after being demoted to the third-string QB behind Kyle Allen and Alex Smith. It remains unclear if Haskins […]

Colts-Bengals On Schedule For Sunday

The Indianapolis Colts COVID-19 tests have come back clean and their game against the Bengals in Week 6 on Sunday remains on schedule, according to owner Jim Irsay. Indianapolis was forced to close their practice facilities on Friday after several positive COVID-19 tests. They were the first COVID-19 issues the Colts had experienced since initial […]

Robby Anderson Proving To Be More Than A Deep Threat

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson is off to the best start of his NFL career in his first year with the Panthers. And he's no longer just a deep threat because of his elite speed, but a complete wide receiver. Anderson ranks third among receivers with 36 catches entering Week 6, and he's fourth […]

La'Mical Perine To Have Much Bigger Role

New York Jets rookie running back La'Mical Perine will have a bigger role in the backfield alongside veteran Frank Gore now that Le'Veon Bell is out of town. "Perine's definitely going to get a bigger role. Frank, you're not going to lean on him as heavy a load. Getting Perine really involved is going to […]
