Dee Ford May Need Surgery After Season
San Francisco 49ers defensive end Dee Ford (knee) might need offseason surgery on his left knee, but he plans to play through it like he did in 2018 when he had a career-high 13 sacks for the Chiefs. Ford played through knee tendinitis, a quadriceps injury and a torn groin last season. He's been questionable […]

Jeffery Wilson Could Be Odd Man Out Soon
San Francisco 49ers running back Jeffery Wilson could be the odd man out of the backfield when Tevin Coleman (ankle) returns from his high ankle sprain. San Francisco is going with a three-man committee since Coleman went down in Week 1, with Matt Breida, Raheem Mostert and Wilson all chipping in. Wilson has carried the […]

Vance McDonald Battling Shoulder Sprain
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) is dealing with a shoulder sprain, but he's not expected to have an extended absence. The Steelers traded for tight end Nick Vannett on Tuesday, however, so it's looking like McDonald is a good candidate to miss at least a game or two in the short term. It's […]

Steelers To Acquire Nick Vannett
The Pittsburgh Steelers are finalizing a trade to acquire tight end Nick Vannett from the Seahawks on Tuesday, according to a league source. The acquisition of Vannett likely means that Vance McDonald (shoulder) will miss at least Week 4 against the Bengals on Monday night. Vannett was playing second fiddle to Will Dissly in Seattle […]

Redskins Expect Jordan Reed To Play This Year
Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that he expects tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) to play again at some point this year. He won't play in Week 4 against the Giants and his return is likely weeks away, at best. Reed hasn't played since being diagnosed with a concussion in the third preseason game […]

Jimmy Graham Limited Tuesday
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (groin, quadriceps) got in a limited practice on Tuesday after sitting out on Monday. Graham is dealing with some nagging injuries, but he should be active Thursday night against the Eagles. The 32-year-old veteran doesn't appear to have much left in the tank in his career, and he […]

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) is seeking a second opinion on his high ankle sprain with Dr. Robert Anderson on Wednesday, according to a source informed of the situation.

Alshon Jeffery, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Practice In Full
Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (calf) and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (heel) both practiced in full on Tuesday. Jeffery missed Week 3 but is right on track to return to face the Packers on Thursday. He'll be the top target with DeSean Jackson (groin) expected to miss another game, but Jeffery should be seen as more […]

Vance McDonald In Sling Tuesday
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) is wearing a sling on Tuesday at the team's facility. It doesn't mean he won't play in Week 4 against the Bengals, but it's not a good sign for his availability early in the week. A week after scoring two touchdowns on seven catches, McDonald caught only one […]

T.Y. Hilton Unsure If He'll Play In Week 4
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) isn't ready to say if he'll be able to play in Week 4 against the Raiders. "If I can play, I'll play," Hilton said. The team's No. 1 wideout missed all of the second half in Week 3 after aggravating his quadriceps injury. He's shaping up to be […]

Todd Gurley Not On Load-Management Program
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Todd Gurley isn't on a load-management program. "We're not doing anything like that," McVay said. "It's more along the lines of each week presents a different approach. It's kind of the feel the flow of the game," McVay said. Gurley had 14 carries for […]

Virgil Green Has Good Shot To Face Miami
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Virgil Green's (groin) injury isn't considered serious, according to a source, and he should have a good shot to play in Week 4 against the Dolphins. Green has two catches on three targets for 13 yards in two games this year. The 31-year-old is more of a blocker than a […]

Vikings Re-Sign Laquon Treadwell
The Minnesota Vikings are re-signing wide receiver Laquon Treadwell on Tuesday, according to sources. Chad Beebe (ankle) has torn ligaments in his ankle, so Treadwell will provide depth in the short term behind Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs and rookie Olabisi Johnson. Treadwell has familiarity with the Vikings, but he's still a long shot to return […]

Chad Beebe Has Torn Ligaments In Ankle
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Chad Beebe (ankle) has torn ligaments in his ankle but won't have surgery, according to a league source. The Vikings will re-evaluate him in a week. Needless to say, Beebe won't be back anytime soon, and surgery is not off the table yet. The 25-year-old has not been fantasy relevant in […]

Cam Newton Dealing With Lisfranc Injury
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) is out indefinitely with a Lisfranc injury, according to sources. The good news is that Newton isn't expected to need surgery for now, but it's an injury that will require at least multiple weeks to heal. At this point, it's unlikely that Newton would return before the team's Week […]

49ers Defense Loses Ahkello Witherspoon For A Month
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon (foot) is expected to miss at least a month with a foot sprain, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Jalen Hurd (back) is trying to recover from a hairline fracture in his back, but he could return to practice next Monday, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Hurd has yet to make his NFL debut, but he'll have a shot to do so after the team's Week 4 […]

Travis Benjamin, Virgil Green Dealing With Injuries
Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that wide receiver Travis Benjamin (quadriceps) is dealing with an injury that will put his availability for Week 4 against the Dolphins in question.

Seahawks Believe In Chris Carson
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said the team still has faith in running back Chris Carson, who has lost three fumbles in three games. "Because we do believe in him, we're going to continue to show him that," Carroll said. Carson might've lost work in Week 3 against the Saints if it weren't for […]

DeSean Jackson Misses Practice Monday
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (groin) was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated Monday practice report. Jackson sat out in Week 3 and is pretty much doubtful to suit up on Thursday night against the Packers. You need to be making other plans if he's on your roster. Nelson Agholor has been […]

Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams On Week 4 Injury Report
Green Bay Packers running backs Aaron Jones (shoulder) and Jamaal Williams (neck) were both listed on Monday's estimated injury report as limited participants.

Jimmy Graham Still Beat Up
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (groin, quadriceps) was listed as a non-participant on the estimated injury report for Monday. Graham is also dealing with thigh and finger injuries.

T.Y. Hilton Could Be Questionable For Week 4
Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) aggravated his quadriceps injury in Week 3 against the Falcons. "We'll see how he progresses this week," Reich said. Thankfully for his fantasy owners, Hilton did all of his damage in the first half (eight catches, 65 yards, one touchdown) before getting […]

Cowboys Not In Negotiations With Byron Jones
Dallas Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said that the team hasn't started contract negotiations with cornerback Byron Jones, who is in the final year of his rookie deal.

Ito Smith, Kenjon Barner In Concussion Protocol
Atlanta Falcons running backs Ito Smith and Kenjon Barner are both in the concussion protocol after suffering head injuries in the Week 3 loss to the Colts. Smith saw just one carry on Sunday before his injury. He has very limited standalone value in fantasy if Devonta Freeman is healthy. If Smith cannot get cleared […]

Seahawks Hope To Have Rashaad Penny Practice Thursday
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that the team hopes to have running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) back at practice on Thursday after he was inactive in the Week 3 loss to the Saints.
