Jacoby Brissett Expected To Start Sunday

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett (knee) went through a full practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Frank Reich. Barring a setback, Brissett will return to game action in Week 11 against the Colts after sitting out the Week 10 loss to the Dolphins. He's dealing with a sprained MCL in his left knee, but […]

Amari Cooper Sits Out Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle, knee) did not practice on Wednesday. The Cowboys are likely just resting their No. 1 wideout coming off an 11-catch, 147-yard, one-touchdown performance in the Sunday night loss to the Vikings. Cooper has four 100-yard games this year, including a 226-yard outing against the Packers, and seven touchdowns. […]

Matthew Stafford, Ty Johnson Miss Practice

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back, hip) and running back Ty Johnson (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Stafford missed his first game in Week 10 since 2010, and he's not a lock to return this Sunday against the Cowboys. He'd be more of a risky QB1 in a tough matchup at less than 100 […]

Aqib Talib Won't Play For Dolphins Defense

Miami Dolphins cornerback Aqib Talib (ribs) will not come off Injured Reserve this year. Talib was dealt from the Rams to the Dolphins at the trade deadline in a move to help save Los Angeles some salary after they traded for cornerback Jalen Ramsey. With the veteran Talib set to be a free agent in […]

Alshon Jeffery Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson is calling wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (ankle) "day-to-day" after he missed practice on Wednesday. It's surprising coming out of the bye week, but Jeffery could be questionable to play Sunday afternoon in a tough matchup against the Patriots and cornerback Stephon Gilmore. If Jeffery suits up, he'll be a […]

Week 10 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

If you had the 49ers in your pool for the last remaining unbeaten team in 2019 before the season started, well, you're probably lying. They had a scare from the Cardinals on Halloween but pulled it out on the road to go to 8-0. The NFL's only other undefeated team, the Patriots, faced their first […]

Russell Okung Injured Thursday Night

Los Angeles Chargers left tackle Russell Okung (groin) suffered a groin injury on Thursday night against the Raiders and didn't return in the second half. Okung had just recently returned from blood clots, so this is just another setback for the team's starting left tackle. If he's forced to miss additional time, it'll be bad […]

Josh Gordon, Luke Willson Limited Thursday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Josh Gordon (knee) and tight end Luke Willson (ribs) were both limited in practice on Thursday. Gordon should be able to make his season debut for Seattle on Monday night against the undefeated 49ers. But against an elite defense and as the No. 3 wideout behind Tyler Lockett and rookie D.K. […]

James Conner, Trey Edmunds, Benny Snell Out Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers running backs James Conner (shoulder), Trey Edmunds (ribs) and Benny Snell Jr. (knee) all missed practice on Thursday. Edmunds and Snell haven't practiced yet this week, while Conner was downgraded after a limited practice Wednesday. Conner isn't expected to play in Week 10 against the Rams, and both Edmunds and Snell are on […]

Ito Smith Remains Out Thursday

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith (neck) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It looks like Smith will miss his second straight game despite having last week's bye to rest up. Smith had very little standalone value as Devonta Freeman's backup when healthy. Brian Hill will serve change-of-pace duties if Smith is […]

A.J. Green Out Indefinitely After Setback

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) will be out indefinitely after suffering a setback to his ankle this week in practice. He has not played since tearing multiple ligaments in his left ankle during the team's first practice of the preseason. He underwent surgery in late July and has yet to play in 2019. […]

T.Y. Hilton Misses Practice Again Thursday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Hilton is expected to miss his second straight game, and he'll likely be officially ruled out on Friday. Zach Pascal has become the No. 1 receiver for the Colts in Hilton's absence, and he'll have WR3/flex appeal […]

George Kittle Won't Practice Thursday

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that tight end George Kittle (ankle, knee) will not practice on Thursday, and the team won't know his status until the end of the week. Kittle could very well be questionable for Monday night against the Seahawks, which would be a nightmare for fantasy owners. He's a […]

Adam Thielen Absent At Practice Thursday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) watched practice off to the side for the second straight day on Thursday. Thielen is not expected to play on Sunday night against the Cowboys after he aggravated his hamstring in the Week 9 loss to the Chiefs. There's also a chance the Vikings hold Thielen out next […]

Amari Cooper Expected To Practice Friday, Play Sunday Night

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (knee) is expected to return to practice on Friday and play on Sunday night against the Vikings. Cooper underwent an MRI exam earlier this week, which revealed only a bruised knee, according to a source. The team's top wideout injured himself last week and aggravated the knee on Monday […]

Lamar Jackson Out With Illness Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (illness) missed practice on Thursday due to an illness. Jackson should be good to go as an elite QB1 this weekend against the winless Bengals. The second-year quarterback went 21-for-33 for 236 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions against Cincy back on Oct. 13, but he also ran a season-high […]

Christian McCaffrey, Curtis Samuel Return To Practice

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (knee) and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring) both returned to practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. McCaffrey was limited, while Samuel practiced in full. Both players will be fine for Week 10 against the Packers. McCaffrey is on a mission to break records in the NFL […]

Le'Veon Bell To Be Limited Thursday

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (knee) will be limited in practice on Thursday, according to head coach Adam Gase. Bell sat out on Wednesday. His MRI exam showed no structural damage, so Bell should be able to play in Week 10 against the Giants. His practice participation on Thursday is a good sign. […]

Corey Davis, Delanie Walker Not Practicing Thursday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (hip) and tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) both remained out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Walker is not expected to suit up in Week 10 against the Chiefs, while Davis is now becoming very questionable himself. The Titans might need to air it out to […]

Ryan Griffin Added To Injury Report

New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin (ankle) was added to the Week 10 injury report on Thursday, but he got in a full practice, so his injury doesn't appear to be too serious. Griffin has had his best two games of the season the last two weeks, going for a combined 10 catches, 116 […]

Trent Williams Placed On NFI List

The Washington Redskins placed left tackle Trent Williams (head) on the Reserve/Non-Football Injury List on Thursday. Williams ended his holdout but will not play for Washington this year. It's expected that the Redskins will look to trade him in the offseason after the two sides were at odds over how the medical staff handled a […]

Ed Dickson Ready For Week 10

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that tight end Ed Dickson (knee) is "ready this week to go" in Week 10 against the 49ers on Monday night. Dickson must be activated off the Injured Reserve before making his season debut this week. Seattle will now have Dickson, Luke Willson and Jacob Hollister at tight […]

Michael Gallup Added To Injury Report

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) was added to the Week 10 injury report on Thursday, but he was able to get in a full practice. It doesn't sound like a major injury, but Gallup's status is worth watching on Friday with Amari Cooper (knee) also fighting to play through a knee bruise on […]

Trent Taylor, Jalen Hurd Could Return From IR

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that wide receivers Trent Taylor (foot) and Jalen Hurd (back) both still have a chance to return from Injured Reserve this year. Taylor had a setback related to an infection after surgery on his foot, while Hurd will be evaluated next week. Taylor's chances of returning seem […]

Robbie Gould May Only Miss One Week

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that there's a chance that kicker Robbie Gould (quadriceps) can kick on Monday night against the Seahawks. If he can't, the team expects Gould to return for Week 11. The Niners signed former Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin just in case Gould isn't cleared for Monday's showdown with […]

Cole Hamels Open To One-Year Deal

Free-agent starting pitcher Cole Hamels, who wasn't offered a qualifying offer from the Cubs, said he's open to a one-year deal this winter and wouldn't mind returning to the Phillies if it's in the cards. The 35-year-old left-hander is a free agent for the first time in his career after the final year of his […]

A.J. Green Won't Play In Week 10

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) confirmed on Thursday that he won't play in Week 10 against the Ravens. Green was expected to make his season debut following the bye week, but he didn't feel good after practicing earlier this week and will miss another week. Even if Green had suited up, he'd have […]

Chase Edmonds Not Practicing Thursday

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hamstring) sat out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Edmonds missed last Thursday's game and is expected to sit out again in Week 10 against the Buccaneers. With David Johnson (ankle) returning this weekend and Kenyan Drake now in the fold as DJ's direct backup, Edmonds' […]

Matthew Stafford's Injuries Not Serious

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back, hip) is practicing again on Thursday, and it sounds as though his injuries are minor. Stafford is having the best season of his career up to this point, and the Lions should be expected to remain a pass-heavy team with Kerryon Johnson out for the rest of the year. […]

Yankees, Brett Gardner Discussing Reunion

The New York Yankees and free-agent outfielder Brett Gardner are already talking about a deal to keep him in pinstripes. Gardner is the longest-tenured Yankee and set career highs in home runs (28) and OPS (.829) during the 2019 season. He slashed .251/.325/.503 and also scored 86 runs, drove in 74 and stolen 10 bases […]
