Adam Gase Could Give Up Play-Calling Duties

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said he's considering giving up play-calling duties after the team's 0-5 start for the first time since 1996. "I don't think I'm ever opposed to try something to change things up. I'd say everything is on the table at this point," Gase said. The Jets have scored more […]

Cam Newton's Status Still Up In The Air

Based on NFL rules, since 10 days have passed since New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton tested positive for COVID-19, he could return to the team for Week 6 against the Broncos as long as he has not shown any symptoms. But head coach Bill Belichick continues to remain non-committal on whether Newton will be […]

Sammy Watkins Expected To Miss Time

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is expected to miss "possibly a couple weeks" with a hamstring injury that doctors are still evaluating, according to a source. Watkins caught both of his targets for 24 yards and his second touchdown of the year before leaving in Week 5, so at least he offered […]

Cowboys Remain Committed To Dak Prescott

Dallas Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said the team remains committed to quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) after he suffered a gruesome season-ending compound fracture and dislocation of his ankle in the Week 5 win over the Giants. Dallas and Prescott were unable to come to terms on a long-term contract extension before the 2020 season, […]

Trysten Hill May Be Done For The Season

The Dallas Cowboys fear that defensive tackle Trysten Hill (knee) suffered a torn ACL in his right knee in the Week 5 win over the Giants, according to multiple sources. Hill will undergo an MRI exam on Tuesday, and if tests confirm the diagnosis, he'll land on Injured Reserve and miss the rest of the […]

Kyle Allen Expected To Play In Week 6

Washington Football Team quarterback Kyle Allen (arm) remains sore from a shot he took to his non-throwing arm in the Week 5 loss to the Rams, but he's expected to be good to go in Week 6 against the Giants, barring a setback. Allen was pulled from the game on Sunday because of his injury, […]

Greedy Williams Going On Injured Reserve

Cleveland Browns cornerback Greedy Williams (shoulder) is being placed on Injured Reserve on Monday and is out indefinitely with a nerve issue in his shoulder, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Williams won't need surgery, though, and he could return at some point this season. At the very minimum, the 22-year-old will have to miss […]

Dak Prescott Has Successful Surgery, Out 4-6 Months

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) underwent successful surgery on Sunday night for a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, according to a source. Prescott is expected to be released from the hospital on Monday, and a source told ESPN that the Cowboys QB will face a recovery timetable of four to six […]

Falcons Fire Dan Quinn; Raheem Morris The Interim Coach

The Atlanta Falcons fired head coach Dan Quinn on Sunday night. Quinn becomes the second head coach in a week to be fired, with the Texans axing head coach Bill O'Brien last week. Raheem Morris will take over as the interim head coach for the 0-5 team after Quinn's dismissal. Morris was the head coach […]

Broncos Defense Could Be In Streaming Consideration

The Denver Broncos Defense hasn't been much of a fantasy option so far this year, coming into their Week 5 matchup against the Patriots ranked 26th in the league in overall fantasy points. It didn't help that they lost former Super Bowl MVP linebacker Von Miller (ankle) for the year right before the Week 1 […]

Brandon McManus Not An Excellent Play In Week 5

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus is coming off easily his best performance of the year when he made all seven of his kicks (three field goals, four extra points) in the Week 4 win over the lowly Jets. Not only did he make all seven of his kicks, but the 29-year-old was successful on two […]

Jake Butt, Nick Vannett Must Step Up With Noah Fant Out

With Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) out for Monday night's game against the Patriots, Jake Butt and Nick Vannett could see more targets in the passing game. Because both Butt and Vannett could take turns alternating at the position, neither player is worth a look for fantasy managers in starting lineups. Butt has […]

Noah Fant Ruled Out For Week 5

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for the Monday night contest against the Patriots in Week 5. Fant scored in each of the first two weeks but has seen his yardage total drop in each consecutive week. However, he's been targeted 27 times in four […]

DaeSean Hamilton To Have Bigger Role In Week 5

Denver Broncos wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton should be alongside Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick in three-receiver sets on Monday night against the Patriots with rookie K.J. Hamler (hamstring) ruled out. But even with tight end Noah Fant (ankle) also sidelined for this one, it might not amount to many looks for Hamilton, especially if quarterback […]

K.J. Hamler Ruled Out Against Patriots

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler (hamstring) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Patriots in Week 5. Hamler was injured in the Week 4 win over the Jets and wasn't targeted in the contest. The speedy rookie has only six receptions on 12 targets for […]

Tim Patrick Hoping To Keep Touchdown Streak Alive

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick has been a surprise early in the season. He's stepped up with Courtland Sutton (knee) out for the season, and he could have another big game on Monday night against the Patriots with both tight end Noah Fant (ankle) and receiver K.J. Hamler (hamstring) ruled out. Patrick has at […]

Jerry Jeudy Could Do Some Damage Against Patriots

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy has been consistent through four games in his first NFL season. He hasn't gone over 62 yards in a single game yet, but he's had at least 55 yards in all four games and scored his first career touchdown in Week 4 on a nice 48-yard reception. Jeudy […]

Phillip Lindsay Returning After Three-Week Absence

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) practiced in full all week and was taken off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Patriots on Monday. Lindsay said his toe feels 100 percent. Melvin Gordon III remains the team's lead back, but Lindsay should eventually cut into his workload. The Broncos could ease […]

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, […]
