Stefon Diggs Good To Go For Divisional Round

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) was taken off the final injury report for the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday. Diggs missed some practice time this week because of his illness, but he'll suit up against San Francisco. He had a slow week against the Saints in the wild-card game with two […]

Adam Thielen Questionable Against 49ers

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) didn't practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday. Thielen was injured in practice on Wednesday and required stitches for his ankle. He's still expected to play against San Francisco, but the Vikings are playing it cautious with him […]

Eagles Expected To Dump Offensive Coordinator

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to part ways with offensive coordinator Mike Groh and wide receivers coach Carson Walch on Thursday, according to league sources. The Eagles offense was undermanned for most of the season due to injuries to wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery and running back Jordan Howard. Considering those setbacks, the […]

Kwon Alexander Will Return Saturday

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) will be activated from Injured Reserve and will be back on the field on Saturday in the Divisional game against the Vikings, but he's unlikely to play an every-down role after a long layoff. He's nine weeks removed from surgery to fix a torn pectoral and just returned […]

Vikings Proceeding With Caution With Adam Thielen

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) needed stitches for a bad cut on his ankle suffered in practice on Wednesday, according to sources. The initial prognosis is encouraging for him playing in the Divisional Round against the 49ers on Saturday, but the team is gathering information and will proceed with caution. Don't be surprised […]

Jaron Brown, Malik Turner Limited In Practice

Seattle Seahawks wide receivers Jaron Brown (knee) and Malik Turner (concussion) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Both players have a chance to return for the Divisional Round against the Packers, barring a setback later this week. However, neither player is much of a fantasy option if they return, as they'll be behind Tyler […]

Will Fuller, Kenny Stills, Jordan Akins Limited Wednesday

Houston Texans wide receivers Will Fuller (groin) and Kenny Stills (knee) and tight end Jordan Akins (hamstring) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Fuller's status for the Divisional Round against the Chiefs will be closely watched this week, as Houston's passing game has been much more consistent and explosive when he's on the field. […]

Jamaal Williams Practicing In Full

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (shoulder) is practicing in full on Wednesday. Williams sat out the regular season finale as a precaution, but he'll be back to back up Aaron Jones in the Divisional Round against the Seahawks. He ran the ball 107 times for 460 yards (4.3 yards per carry) and one […]

Travis Kelce Dealing With Sore Knee

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice because of a sore knee. The injury isn't serious, however, and shouldn't keep him from playing in the Divisional Round against the Texans on Sunday. It's something worth watching, especially since Kelce is the top-priced tight end on DraftKings this weekend at […]

Diamondbacks Agree With Hector Rondon

The Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to a one-year deal with relief pitcher Hector Rondon on Wednesday, according to sources. Rondon, 32 next month, is guaranteed $3 million. He'll make $2.5 million in 2020 with a $500,000 buyout on his team option. The right-hander had a 3.71 ERA in 62 games last year with the Astros and […]

Indians Expected To Hold Onto Francisco Lindor

Cleveland Indians president Chris Antonetti said on Wednesday that he's more confident that All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor will be with the team to start the season after the Tribe didn't receive a trade proposal to their liking in the last few weeks. The four-time All-Star is under contract through the 2021 season, but the Indians […]

Seahawks Put Mychal Kendricks On Injured Reserve

The Seattle Seahawks placed linebacker Mychal Kendricks (knee) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and promoted offensive tackle Chad Wheeler from the practice squad in a corresponding move. Kendricks didn't play in the wild-card win over the Eagles last weekend, and now his season will come to an end. He was effective in his 14 games […]

Adam Humphries Misses Practice Again

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries (ankle) missed practice again on Wednesday. Humphries hasn't played or practiced since Dec. 1, so he shouldn't be expected to suit up for the Divisional Round against the Ravens. Even if he did, he wouldn't be on the fantasy radar after catching 37 passes for 374 yards and two […]

Adam Thielen Lands On Injury Report

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (ankle) was added to the injury report for the Divisional Round against the 49ers and was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. After coming back from a hamstring injury that he aggravated on Oct. 20, Thielen finished the season by catching three passes for 27 yards in […]

Vikings Optimistic On Stefon Diggs

Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is optimistic that wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) will be fine for Saturday in the Divisional Round against the 49ers. Diggs should be fine to play this weekend, even if he doesn't get much practice in this week. The 26-year-old had only two catches for 19 yards in the […]

Brewers Give Craig Counsell Contract Extension

The Milwaukee Brewers are signing manager Craig Counsell to a contract extension that will run through the 2023 season, according to sources. It's a well-deserved extension, as Counsell led the Brew Crew to a National League Championship appearance in 2018 before a wild-card showing this past season. The 49-year-old coach started as the head man […]

Mark Ingram Day-To-Day

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that running back Mark Ingram (calf) is "day-to-day." Ingram wasn't spotted at practice on Tuesday after feeling tightness in his calf. Holding him out was a precaution after he was going full speed in practice the previous week. It's a setback, though, and it makes Ingram's status for […]

Eric Weddle Undergoes Surgery

Los Angeles Rams safety Eric Weddle (knee) underwent a meniscus trim and is expected to recover in weeks, not months. Somehow, it was the 35-year-old's first ever surgery. In his first season with the Rams, Weddle had 108 total tackles (69 solo) and four passes defensed over a full season. He clearly still has some […]

Teddy Bridgewater Unlikely To Leave Saints

New Orleans Saints quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who will be an unrestricted free agent in March, will be tough to pry away from the Saints, even if Drew Brees returns for another season. It would likely take a good team that isn't expected to draft a quarterback in the upcoming draft. The Dolphins could be a […]

Tom Brady Says He Has More To Prove

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who will become an unrestricted free agent in March, said that it was "probably unlikely" that he'd retire following the wild-card loss to the Titans last weekend, and he wrote on his Instagram account on Wednesday that "I still have more to prove." New England can't place the franchise […]

Robinson Chirinos Returning To Rangers

The Texas Rangers agreed to a one-year, $6.75 million deal with catcher Robinson Chirinos on Tuesday, according to MLB sources. He'll make $5.75 million in 2020, and the deal includes a club option for 2021 worth $6.25 million or a $1 million buyout. Texas opted not to pick up Chirinos' option for 2019 and instead […]

Stefon Diggs Out Sick Tuesday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) isn't practicing on Tuesday due to an illness. Diggs should be fine to play in the Divisional Round game against the 49ers on Saturday, but it's something to monitor the rest of the week. The Vikings No. 1 wideout caught just two of three targets for 19 yards […]

Dion Lewis Limited At Practice

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice on Tuesday. Lewis should be able to play this Saturday against the Titans as the little-used backup to stud running back Derrick Henry. Even in this run-first offense, Lewis has just 54 carries this year for 209 yards and no rushing scores. […]

Adam Humphries Misses Practice, Kalif Raymond Returns

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Adam Humphries (ankle) did not practice on Tuesday, but wide receiver Kalif Raymond (concussion) was a full participant. Humphries hasn't played in five weeks, so he doesn't appear close to returning for the Divisional Round against the Ravens this Saturday. Raymond, however, looks to have cleared the concussion protocol and should […]

Mark Andrews Limited In Practice Tuesday

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) was limited in practice on Tuesday. Andrews sat out in Week 17 with nothing on the line, but he'll be back in action in the Divisional Round against the Titans. He was quarterback Lamar Jackson's top target in the passing game in 2019 with 64 receptions, 852 yards […]

Mackensie Alexander To Have Surgery

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Mackensie Alexander (knee) will have arthroscopic surgery for a small tear in his lateral meniscus and will miss the Divisional Round against the 49ers, according to a source. However, if the Vikings pull off the upset of San Francisco and advance to the NFC title game, Alexander could be back. Minnesota pulled […]

Mark Ingram Feels Tightness In Calf

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf), who was going at full speed last week, wasn't spotted at practice on Tuesday. He felt some tightness in his calf and pulled back to avoid re-injury, according to a source. However, he still has a chance to play in the Divisional Round against the Titans on Saturday. […]

Redskins Hiring Scott Turner As Offensive Coordinator

The Washington Redskins are hiring ex-Panthers assistant Scott Turner as their new offensive coordinator on Tuesday, according to a source. This move doesn't come as a huge surprise, as Turner served as the quarterbacks coach under new Redskins head coach Ron Rivera when he was in Carolina. Turner was then promoted to offensive coordinator when […]

Steve Cishek Joining White Sox

The Chicago White Sox and relief pitcher Steve Cishek agreed on a one-year, $6 million deal on Tuesday, according to sources familiar with the agreement. The deal includes an option that could take the deal to a second year at $12 million total. Cishek had a 2.95 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, seven saves and 57 K's […]

Michael Fulmer Avoids Arbitration

The Detroit Tigers avoided salary arbitration with starting pitcher Michael Fulmer on Monday night by agreeing to a one-year, $2.8 million deal, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Fulmer, who turns 27 years old in March, didn't pitch at all in 2019 after having Tommy John surgery in late March. The right-hander […]
