Ravens Defense Loses Jimmy Smith For Multiple Weeks

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that veteran cornerback Jimmy Smith (knee) has a Grade 2 MCL sprain and will miss "multiple weeks."

Sterling Shepard May Have Concussion

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that wide receiver Sterling Shepard (head) "may be dealing with a concussion." The team will likely put him through the concussion protocol this week, and we won't have an idea of whether he'll suit up in Week 2 against the Bills until his practice status is released […]

Steelers Defense May Be Without Joe Haden In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (shoulder) suffered a sprained AC joint in the Week 1 loss to the Patriots on Sunday night, according to a source. The Patriots walked all over Pittsburgh's defense in the regular season opener, and losing Haden in the secondary would be even more bad news heading into the Week 2 […]

Chris Lindstrom Out Eight Weeks

Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons rookie right guard Chris Lindstrom (foot) is expected to be in a boot for around eight weeks after he broke a small bone in his foot in Week 1 against the Vikings, according to a source. He'll likely head to Injured Reserve but could return later this year. Losing […]

Seahawks Defense Not Counting On Ziggy Ansah For Week 2

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said they are taking it day-to-day with defensive end Ziggy Ansah (groin, shoulder), but the team isn't exactly counting on Ansah to suit up in Week 2 against the Steelers. The Seahawks aren't rushing the injury-prone pass-rusher back, although his presence on the defensive line would be an added […]

Chris Lindstrom May Have Broken Foot

The Atlanta Falcons fear that rookie right guard Chris Lindstrom (foot) suffered a broken foot in the Week 1 loss to the Vikings, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Greg Robinson Unlikely To Be Suspended

Cleveland Browns left tackle Greg Robinson, who was ejected in Week 1 for kicking Titans safety Kenny Vaccaro in the head, is facing a fine but is unlikely to be suspended, according to a source.

T.J. Watt, Maurkice Pouncey Injured Sunday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (hip) and center Maurkice Pouncey (ankle) both left the game in the fourth quarter of the Week 1 loss to the Patriots on Sunday night and did not return.

Devin White Dealing With Tonsilitis

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie linebacker Devin White (illness) has been dealing with tonsilitis and not the flu bug, according to head coach Bruce Arians. White played through the illness in his NFL debut against the 49ers in Week 1 and finished with five solo tackles. White is an incredibly talented linebacker and should make noise […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars are acquiring quarterback Joshua Dobbs from the Steelers on Monday in exchange for a 2020 fifth-round pick, according to sources.

Jags Comfortable With Gardner Minshew As Starter

The Jacksonville Jaguars feel comfortable using quarterback Gardner Minshew as their starter under center with Nick Foles (collarbone) on Injured Reserve. The Jaguars traded for Joshua Dobbs on Monday, but he's expected to backup Minshew until Foles is ready to return. Minshew looked good in relief of Foles in Week 1 against the Chiefs, going […]

Dak Prescott Extension Is Imminent

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on Sunday that he expects to have a deal with quarterback Dak Prescott in a matter of "days." "It would probably be fair to say it’ll be done on a imminent basis. Imminent. Without being real clear, bright lined. It’s not done. What’s imminent? Well, days. Days. Or something […]

Tevin Coleman Expected To Miss Time

San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman (ankle), who sprained his ankle in the Week 1 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday, is expected to miss time, according to a source.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (toe) got rolled up on late in the blowout Week 1 loss to the Patriots on Sunday night, but expects to be ready to go in Week 2 at home against the Seahawks.

49ers Worried About Tevin Coleman

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that he's concerned with running back Tevin Coleman's (ankle) injury that he suffered in the Week 1 victory over the Buccaneers. It sounds as if Coleman might struggle to be ready for Week 2, so you'll need to have other options ready. He ran six times for […]

Demaryius Thomas Inactive Sunday Night

New England Patriots wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) is inactive for Week 1 on Sunday night against the Steelers. Thomas is fourth on the receiver depth chart as things stand right now, but he's about to be fifth once Antonio Brown shows up after being signed on Saturday. Julian Edelman, Josh Gordon and Phillip Dorsett […]

Will Dissly Injured Against Bengals

Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly (knee) suffered a right knee injury late in the Week 1 game against the Bengals and was listed as doubtful to return. Dissly caught one of his two targets for 12 yards in the game before leaving. In an offense that runs the ball a lot and doesn't involve […]

Patrick Mahomes Dealing With Sprained Ankle

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle in the Week 1 blowout win over the Jaguars, according to head coach Andy Reid. Mahomes looked to be limping at one point in the game, but he stayed in the game, so it doesn't seem like this is a significant injury. The electric […]

Baker Mayfield Has A Bruised Wrist

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (wrist) suffered a bruised wrist in the Week 1 loss to the Titans and underwent X-rays at the stadium before having his right wrist taped. However, it's just a bruise and he said he'll be "alright" heading into Week 2 against the Jets. Mayfield went 25-for-38 for 285 yards, a […]

Mike Williams Suffers Knee Injury Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) suffered a knee injury late in the second half in Week 1 against the Colts and is questionable to return. Williams caught two of just three targets in the game for 29 yards, so he didn't make his fantasy owners very happy in the season opener. Williams […]

Jimmy Smith's Injury Isn't Season-Ending

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that cornerback Jimmy Smith's (knee) right knee injury isn't season-ending. "It does not look like that at all. I’m sure he’ll get an MRI tomorrow. We’ll just see if it’s days, or weeks or what. We’ll know tomorrow after we get the MRI," Harbaugh said. Smith might not […]

Joe Mixon Questionable To Return In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) was injured in Week 1 against the Seahawks and is questionable to return. Mixon ran the ball six times for only 10 yards while also catching two of three targets in the passing game for seven yards before departing, so his fantasy owners certainly hope he can return […]

Tevin Coleman Injured In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman (ankle) was injured in Week 1 against the Buccaneers and won't return to the game. Coleman rushed six times for 23 yards (3.8 yards per carry) and also caught two of three targets in the passing game for 33 yards before departing. Matt Breida and Raheem Mostert will […]

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (shoulder), who is in the hospital after leaving the Week 1 game against the Jaguars, is expected to miss a few weeks with his injury, according to a source.

Tyreek Hill's Clavicle Being Examined

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (clavicle) is undergoing tests on his collarbone after leaving the Week 1 game against the Jaguars, according to a source. Fantasy owners will be holding their breath until Hill's status is known. A broken clavicle could cost him as much as six to eight weeks. Before departing, Hill […]

Nick Foles Suffers Broken Clavicle In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles (clavicle) suffered a broken left clavicle in the Week 1 loss to the Chiefs. Before exiting, Foles went 5-for-8 for 75 yards and a touchdown. It's a big loss for the Jaguars offense, as Gardner Minshew will be forced to step in as the starting signal-caller for the next six […]

C.J. Mosley Doubtful To Return For Jets Defense

New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) is doubtful to return late in the Week 1 game against the Bills after suffering a groin injury. As the defensive captain that calls the signals, his injury could be a significant loss if he's forced to miss Week 2 or beyond. Mosley is a top IDP option […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Benched Against Ravens

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was pulled in the second half of the Week 1 game against the Ravens after going 14-for-29 for 185 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Josh Rosen will take over the rest of the way in the blowout, with the Ravens up 52-10 in the fourth quarter. Fitz entered the […]

Dontrell Hilliard Being Evaluated For Concussion

Cleveland Browns running back Dontrell Hilliard (concussion) is being evaluated for a concussion in Week 1 against the Titans. Hilliard rushed for a four-yard touchdown early in this game while also catching one of two targets for a 14-yard gain. Unless Nick Chubb is injured in the first half of the season, Hilliard is unlikely […]

John Ursua, Ziggy Ansah Inactive Against Bengals

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver John Ursua and defensive end Ziggy Ansah (groin) are both inactive for Week 1 against the Bengals. Ursua had a chance for more chances in the passing game with David Moore injured, but he'll be a healthy scratch. Tyler Lockett, Jaron Brown and rookie D.K. Metcalf should be in on […]
