Chris Herndon IV Not Practicing Thursday

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon IV (hamstring) remains out of practice on Thursday. Herndon is a long shot at this point to play on Monday night against the Patriots, so you shouldn't be considering using him as your starting tight end. He could potentially have some TE1 upside in this offense led by […]

Mitch Trubisky Feeling Good

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder), who practiced in full on Wednesday, is "feeling good." All signs point to Trubisky returning in Week 7 to face the Saints after missing the London game in Week 5. If that happens, backup Chase Daniel will go back to holding the clipboard. […]

Chris Thompson Still Out Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) remained sidelined at practice for the second straight day Thursday. It's looking unlikely that Thompson plays in Week 7 against the 49ers while dealing with a minor case of turf toe. Adrian Peterson should see another heavy workload this Sunday, but it might not matter against San Fran's […]

DeSean Jackson Misses Another Practice

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen) missed another practice on Thursday. The Eagles were optimistic about Jackson playing this weekend for the first time since Week 2, but that's looking like more of a long shot if he can't get on the practice field. A notoriously slow healer, D-Jax might be more likely to […]

Wayne Gallman Practicing In Full

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman (concussion) practiced in full on Thursday. After missing last Thursday's contest, Gallman looks to be on track to return in Week 7 against the Cardinals. However, Saquon Barkley (ankle) is also practicing in full and should be able to return after a two-game absence. Gallman will be a […]

David Johnson Returns To Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (ankle) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. There shouldn't be any drama this week over whether Johnson will suit up. He'll be out there in an excellent Week 7 matchup against the Giants as the Cardinals lead back once again. Consider him a surefire RB1 […]

Roberto Perez Has Surgery On Ankle

Cleveland Indians catcher Roberto Perez (ankle) underwent successful arthroscopic surgery on Wednesday to remove bone spurs from his right ankle. He is expected to be ready for spring training next year. The 30-year-old is coming off a career year for the Tribe in which he hit 24 home runs and drove in 63 runs while […]

C.J. Mosley Says He's Playing Monday

New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) said that he will play on Monday night against the Patriots. Mosley has been out since the season opener with a severe groin injury, but it looks like he's targeting this Monday as his return to action. The Jets Defense/special teams just hasn't been the same without their […]

Jimmy Graham Not Practicing Thursday

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's particularly concerning since the team's top three receivers -- Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Geronimo Allison -- have also yet to practice and are all in danger of sitting out in Week 7 against the Raiders. The veteran […]

Bengals, Cordy Glenn At Odds Over Injury

Cincinnati Bengals left tackle Cordy Glenn (concussion) was cleared to return from his concussion on Wednesday, but he and the team have been at odds regarding his head injury, its symptoms, whether he's able to return and the need for second opinions, according to multiple sources. Cincinnati fined Glenn $200,000 for conduct detrimental to the […]

Marquise Brown Still Absent

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) remains sidelined at practice for the second straight day Thursday. Brown missed practice all of last week and the Week 6 game, and he's looking unlikely to play again this weekend against the Seahawks. None of Willie Snead, rookie Miles Boykin or Seth Roberts stepped up in […]

Travis Benjamin Lands On Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Chargers placed wide receiver Travis Benjamin (quadriceps) on Injured Reserve on Thursday and signed defensive tackle T.Y. McGill in a corresponding move. Benjamin can return later this year, but he should be dropped from all fantasy rosters in deeper leagues. The 29-year-old had just six catches on 16 targets for 30 scoreless […]

A.J. Green Won't Practice Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) will not practice again on Thursday. The Bengals aren't rushing their No. 1 receiver back, and he's highly unlikely to play in Week 7 against the Jaguars. With Cincy's bye coming in Week 9, it's possible that Green doesn't make his season debut until Week 10 against the […]

Josh Gordon, Matt LaCosse Miss Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon (knee) and tight end Matt LaCosse (knee) were not at practice on Thursday. Gordon was injured last Thursday night and didn't return to the game. He's in serious danger of sitting out on Monday night against the Jets, and he's even more difficult to trust with the game […]

Amari Cooper, Randall Cobb Out Again Thursday

Dallas Cowboys wide receivers Amari Cooper (ankle, quadriceps) and Randall Cobb (back) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Both players are on the wrong side of questionable right now for Sunday night against the Eagles. Until further notice, plan on being without both of them. That would put Michael Gallup as […]

Ravens Defense Unlikely To Have Jimmy Smith In Week 7

Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith (knee) said he'll warm up and see how he feels on Sunday, but he's also planning to take it slow with the team's bye coming in Week 8. Smith is unlikely to play in Week 7 against the Seahawks. The 31-year-old has yet to play this year and his absence […]

Dolphins Open To Trading Kenyan Drake

The Miami Dolphins have had trade talks with teams centered around running back Kenyan Drake, and they would trade him if the right offer presents itself, according to sources. Drake has had no extension talks with Miami since training camp and would welcome a change of scenery. He's been the team's lead back this year, […]

Bucs Not Looking To Trade O.J. Howard

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are not looking to trade tight end O.J. Howard this year, according to sources. The former first-round pick had high expectations for him in head coach Bruce Arians' offense in 2019, but so far he's looked more like a glorified fullback, but that doesn't mean Tampa will try to trade him […]

Dede Westbrook, Marqise Lee, Geoff Swaim Not Practicing

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers Dede Westbrook (shoulder) and Marqise Lee (ankle) and tight end Geoff Swaim (ankle, concussion) will all sit out of practice on Thursday. Westbrook has a nice matchup in a Bengals team likely to be missing their top cornerbacks this weekend, but he might be questionable to suit up. If he plays, […]

Raiders Sign Darren Waller To Extension

The Oakland Raiders signed tight end Darren Waller to a multi-year extension on Thursday that is expected to pay him around $9 million per season in what amounts to a three-year extension, according to the NFL Network. Waller was scheduled to become a restricted free agent after this season. He served a pair of suspensions […]

Drew Brees Working With Regulation-Sized Football

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) said that he's back to working with a regulation-sized football in his rehab. "I have a really kind of disciplined plan for what I need to do for strength and flexibility and then my throwing and all that stuff. So really starting to get back into it, doing […]

Rams Defense Hopes To Have Jalen Ramsey Sunday

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said the goal is to have newly acquired cornerback Jalen Ramsey (back) ready to play in Week 7 against the Falcons. Ramsey missed the last three games with the Jaguars before being dealt to the Rams this week to help shore up their secondary issues. If he makes […]

Rashaad Penny Not On Injury Report

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is not listed on the initial injury report for Week 7 against the Ravens. It's a bit of a surprise after Penny was inactive in Week 6 against the Browns. He should return to being a change-of-pace back behind workhorse Chris Carson. Now that Carson's fumbling issues are […]

Greg Robinson In Danger Of Being Benched

Cleveland Browns left tackle Greg Robinson has already been benched or is in serious jeopardy of it, according to a league source. There's a decent chance that Robinson will be replaced by someone else when the team returns from their Week 7 bye, possibly by backup Kendall Lamm. The Browns are also contemplating replacing right […]

Travis Benjamin Misses Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (quadriceps) did not practice on Wednesday after getting banged up in the Sunday night loss to the Steelers. Consider him questionable to suit up for Week 7 against the Titans, but Benjamin has time to return to practice later this week. With tight end Hunter Henry back in […]

Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Geronimo Allison Out

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Davante Adams (toe), Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) and Geronimo Allison (chest, concussion) all were listed as out of practice in the estimated report on Wednesday. Tight end Jimmy Graham (ankle) was also listed as did not participate. Green Bay's receivers are really banged up, which led them to sign Ryan […]

Todd Gurley Limited, Malcolm Brown Day-To-Day

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (thigh) will take part in individual drills at practice on Wednesday, while head coach Sean McVay said that running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) is day-to-day. Gurley was inactive last weekend but has a chance to return in Week 7 against the Falcons in a pristine matchup. He'd have […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook, Tre'Quan Smith Miss Practice

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee), tight end Jared Cook (ankle) and wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) all missed practice on Wednesday. Kamara could miss practice all week with a mild high ankle sprain, but he's still hoping to play in Week 7 against the Bears. In a tough matchup on potentially […]

Mason Rudolph Clears Concussion Protocol

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and can return in Week 8 against the Dolphins after the team's Week 7 bye. It looks like Rudolph will miss just one game after a scary collision in Week 5. Rudolph's return will be good news for all of the Steelers skill […]

Jace Sternberger Designated To Return From IR

The Green Bay Packers have designated rookie tight end Jace Sternberger (ankle) as one of two players to return from Injured Reserve this year, according to a source. The third-round pick has yet to play in the NFL, but he should be able to help the Packers in a few weeks. With veteran Jimmy Graham […]
