Davante Adams, Jamaal Williams Miss Practice Monday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) and running back Jamaal Williams (head, neck) both missed practice on Monday after being injured last Thursday night. Both Adams and Williams are questionable, at best, to suit up in Week 5 against the Cowboys. Making things even more difficult for fantasy owners is the fact that […]

Saquon Barkley Considered Week-To-Week
New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) "is eager and champing at the bit to get back," but the coach still considers Barkley "week-to-week." Barkley is already out of his walking boot and thinks he'll return on the short end of his four- to eight-week timetable, but it remains […]

Mitch Trubisky Has Dislocated Shoulder, Labrum Tear
Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky's (shoulder) initial MRI exam showed a dislocated left shoulder and slightly torn labrum, but he won't need surgery and should be back "sooner rather than later," according to a source. Trubisky will travel to London in Week 5 against the Raiders but is unlikely to play, especially with Chicago having […]

Vontaze Burfict Suspended For Rest Of 2019
Oakland Raiders linebacker Vontaze Burfict has been suspended without pay for the remainder of the 2019 season after another illegal hit on Colts tight end Jack Doyle in Week 4. Burfict continues to violate the league's rules on unnecessary roughness. He will appeal the suspension, but there's still a good chance that Burfict misses all […]

Kyle Allen Expected To Start In Week 5
Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera said that he expects quarterback Kyle Allen to start in Week 5 against the Jaguars. There is still no timetable for Cam Newton (foo) to return. In a good matchup with Houston's vulnerable secondary, Allen wasn't very impressive, going 24-for-34 (70.6 percent) with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also […]

Marcus Mariota Gets His Blind-Side Protector Back
Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan is returning from his four-game suspension this week. The three-time Pro Bowler will be a big boost to an offensive line that wasn't doing a very good job of protecting Mariota through the first four weeks of the season. Lewan and the Titans O-line will certainly have their hands […]

Patriots Getting Benjamin Watson Back
New England Patriots tight end Benjamin Watson is returning this week after his four-game suspension to begin the year. It's another weapon for quarterback Tom Brady to utilize heading into Week 5 against the Redskins. The 38-year-old Watson had 35 catches for 400 yards and two scores in a full season with the Saints in […]

Antonio Callaway Returning From Suspension
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway is returning from his four-game suspension this week. Callaway posted 43 receptions, 586 yards and five touchdowns in his rookie season and has upside in the Browns offense.

Adam Thielen Upset With Direction Of Offense
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen spoke out on the team's offense after a 16-6 loss to the Bears in Week 4. The Vikings had just 59 total yards of offense in the first half and quarterback Kirk Cousins was 9-for-14 passing for 53 yards with two minutes left in the third quarter. "At some […]

Tyron Smith Has High Ankle Sprain
Dallas Cowboys six-time Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) suffered a high right ankle sprain on Sunday night against the Saints, according to owner Jerry Jones. Smith was in a walking boot when he left the locker room and will likely miss time. It could be a problem for quarterback Dak Prescott's protection in […]

Jaguars Plan To Keep Jalen Ramsey
The Jacksonville Jaguars rejected an offer of two first-round picks in exchange for cornerback Jalen Ramsey, according to a league source. Ramsey has made it public that he wants to be traded and has no desire to sign a contract extension, but the Jaguars are hesitant to deal the Pro Bowl defender. Ramsey missed practice […]

Colt McCoy An Option To Face Patriots
Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy (leg), who head coach Jay Gruden has familiarity with, is an option to start in Week 5 against the Patriots over both rookie Dwayne Haskins and Case Keenum. Keenum was benched early in the Week 4 loss to the Giants in favor of Haskins, who looked like a rookie (three […]

Mitch Trubisky, Roquan Smith In Question For Week 5
Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) and linebacker Roquan Smith (personal) are in question for the Week 5 trip to London to face the Raiders. Smith was a late scratch in Week 4 due to a personal issue, and the team hasn't decided if he'll travel to London. Trubisky hurt his non-throwing shoulder six plays […]

A.J. Green Not Close To A Return
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) will not play on Monday night against the Steelers and is not expected to play at least the next two weeks against the Cardinals and Ravens, according to sources. That means that the earliest we'd see Green is in Week 7 against the Vikings. The veteran receiver should […]

Golden Tate Back From Four-Game Suspension
New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate is back from his four-game suspension on Monday for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. Tate remained in shape by training in California with Chargers running back Melvin Gordon while being away from the team to begin the season. It's a big addition to New York's offense, […]

Saquon Barkley Already Out Of Walking Boot
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) is already out of his walking boot. Barkley said this weekend that he thinks he can be back sooner than his four- to eight-week timetable for a high ankle sprain, and this news seems to confirm that sentiment. However, the Giants will be extremely cautious with their […]

Josh Allen Suffers Head Injury Against Patriots
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (head) was being evaluated for a head injury in the fourth quarter of the Week 4 game against the Patriots. Allen was having a rough day before his injury, going 13-for-28 for 153 yards and three interceptions before his injury, but his saving grace for fantasy owners was that he […]

Jarvis Landry Ruled Out With Concussion
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (concussion) was ruled out of the game in Week 4 against the Ravens after suffering a concussion. The good news for his fantasy owners is that he had eight catches for 167 yards before exiting the game. He'll now be questionable for Week 5 against the 49ers on Monday […]

T.J. Hockenson Taken Off On Cart
Detroit Lions rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson (concussion) came down hard on his shoulder and head in Week 4 against the Chiefs after trying to leap a defender.

Dontrelle Inman Questionable To Return
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (quadriceps) was injured in Week 4 against the Dolphins and is questionable to return. Linebacker Denzel Perryman (concussion) is also questionable to return.

Broncos Defense Without Kareem Jackson Sunday
Denver Broncos cornerback Kareem Jackson (hamstring) is inactive for Week 4 against the Jaguars. With cornerback Bryce Callahan (foot) also out, Jacksonville's receivers could be looking at a nice day. However, shutdown cornerback Chris Harris Jr. will likely be tasked with shutting down either D.J. Chark or Dede Westbrook. Chark has the most upside in […]

Jalen Ramsey Out For Jaguars Defense
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (back, illness) is inactive for Week 4 against the Broncos. Ramsey was also away from the team this week for the birth of his daughter, and it's no secret that he's requested a trade and wants out of Jacksonville. His absence makes Broncos receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Courtland Sutton more […]

Trey Burton, Eddy Pineiro Active For Week 4
Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) and kicker Eddy Pineiro (knee) are both active in Week 4 against the Vikings. Burton has been injured seemingly all year so far and has had very little production in Chicago's mediocre offense up until this point. Consider him a low-end, touchdown-dependent TE2 for this tough matchup with […]

Roquan Smith, Akiem Hicks, Mike Davis Inactive
Chicago Bears linebacker Roquan Smith, defensive tackle Akiem Hicks (knee) and Mike Davis (personal) are all inactive for Week 4 against the Vikings. It's unclear why Smith is unavailable for this game, as he wasn't listed on the team's final injury report. Either way, with both he and Hicks out on Sunday, it's bad news […]

Rashaad Penny Inactive In Week 4
Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is inactive for the second straight week in Week 4 against the Cardinals. Despite fumbling again in Week 3, Chris Carson will remain the team's lead back and should have a substantial workload in a positive matchup against the Arizona defense. With Carson likely seeing a healthy workload, […]

Chris Godwin Officially Active
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hip) is officially active in Week 4 against the Rams. Godwin will be less than 100 percent and is facing a very tough matchup against a Rams Defense that has yet to allow a touchdown to a receiver this year. Still, the Bucs figure to be playing from […]

Case Keenum Benched Against Giants
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum has been benched in the first half in Week 4 against the Giants after going 6-for-11 for 37 yards and one interception. First-rounder Dwayne Haskins has entered the game and will presumably finish the game with Washington down 14-0. Haskins offers more long-term upside for sure, but he might not […]

Kenny Stills Injured Sunday
Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills (hamstring) left the game in Week 4 against the Panthers in the second quarter and is questionable to return. Stills caught both of his targets for 24 yards before leaving the game. If he isn't able to make it back in the second half, Keke Coutee and Deandre Carter […]

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (collarbone) is not expected to be active in Week 5 and will undergo imaging tests on his shoulder this week to determine how much longer he'll be out, according to sources.

Cowboys, Dak Prescott Not Close To Deal
The Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott are not close to a contract extension at this time, according to sources.
