Odell Beckham Jr., Jarvis Landry, Baker Mayfield Limited

Cleveland Browns wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. (groin) and Jarvis Landry (hip) and quarterback Baker Mayfield (hand, ribs) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. All three players should be fine to suit up in Week 14 in an excellent matchup against the one-win Bengals. Landry has become the safer fantasy weapon than OBJ, but […]

Twins, White Sox Heavily Pursuing Madison Bumgarner

The Chicago White Sox and Minnesota Twins are among the heaviest suitors for starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner now that Zack Wheeler has agreed with the Phillies, according to sources. The Yankees are involved to some extent, too. Veteran lefty Cole Hamels also inked a deal with the Braves on Wednesday. Bumgarner's market has been very […]

Rangers, White Sox Interested In Marcell Ozuna, Nick Castellanos

The Texas Rangers and Chicago White Sox are both interested in outfielders Marcell Ozuna and Nick Castellanos, according to sources. Ozuna hit .241/.328/.472 with 29 home runs, 80 runs, 89 RBI and 12 stolen bases in 130 games in his second season with the Cardinals, while Castellanos hit a combined .289/.337/.525 with 27 homers, 100 […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Says He's Week-To-Week

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) said his knee is getting better, but he's labeling himself as week-to-week. He ran for the first time on Wednesday, but he is only running in a straight line and isn't cutting yet. It puts him on the wrong side of questionable for Week 14 against the Cardinals, […]

Zack Wheeler Agrees With Phillies

The Philadelphia Phillies and starting pitcher Zack Wheeler are in agreement on a five-year deal worth more than $100 million, according to sources. Wheeler's market was moving very fast and he was expected to sign before next week's winter meetings. The right-hander will slot into a rotation next to the likes of Aaron Nola, Jake […]

Madison Bumgarner Could Sign Before Next Week

Starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner's market looks to be just as robust as starting pitcher Zack Wheeler's at the moment. One executive predicts that both starters will sign before next week's winter meetings in San Diego. Teams such as the Phillies, White Sox, Reds, Astros, Angels, Blue Jays, Twins, Yankees, Rangers and Padres could all be […]

Diamondbacks Interested In Nick Castellanos

The Arizona Diamondbacks are among the teams interested in outfielder Nick Castellanos, according to one source. Castellanos hit a combined .289/.337/.525 with a career-high 27 home runs, 100 runs scored and 73 RBI in 151 games between the Tigers and Cubs last season. He was even better in his 51 games with the Cubbies, slashing […]

Astros In On Zack Wheeler

The Houston Astros are another team interested in starting pitcher Zack Wheeler. At this point, who isn't interested in Wheeler? The right-hander is the third best available starting arm on the market behind Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg, and the Astros are looking at replacing Cole potentially with Wheeler. The Phillies, Reds, White Sox, Twins […]

Phillies Looking At Stephen Strasburg

The Philadelphia Phillies are looking at starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg. They are also believed to be the top current bidder for starting pitcher Zack Wheeler as they attempt to bolster their starting rotation heading into 2020 and beyond. Strasburg and Gerrit Cole are the top free-agent arms available, with Wheeler a close third on that […]

Matt Breida Taking Part In Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) is taking part in practice on Wednesday. Also practicing are cornerback Richard Sherman (knee), defensive end Dee Ford (hamstring) and left tackle Joe Staley (finger). Breida was close to returning last week but was ultimately held out. The 24-year-old has a much better chance of suiting up […]

Taylor Gabriel, Ben Braunecker Ruled Out For Thursday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Taylor Gabriel (concussion) and tight end Ben Braunecker (concussion) missed practice all week and have been ruled out for Thursday night against the Cowboys. It'll be the second straight missed game for both players. Anthony Miller went off for season highs in catches (nine) and yards (140) in the Week 13 […]

Blue Jays Check In On Michael Pineda

The Toronto Blue Jays have checked in on starting pitcher Michael Pineda, according to sources. The 6-foot-7 right-hander had a 4.01 ERA in 26 starts with the Twins last year before he was hit with a performance-enhancing suspension to end his season. The 30-year-old will continue serving the suspension to start 2020. Toronto is clearly […]

Nationals Pursuing Josh Donaldson

The Washington Nationals are pursuing third baseman Josh Donaldson heavily. It could mean that the Nationals believe they have no chance of re-signing Anthony Rendon, who is the most coveted position player on the open market this winter. Donaldson, 33, doesn't have the upside that comes with Rendon and he has his own injury concerns […]

Phillies Seen As Top Bidder For Zack Wheeler

The Philadelphia Phillies are seen by sources as the most potent bidders for starting pitcher Zack Wheeler. The Reds and White Sox are also involved, but the Rangers are no longer an option. The 29-year-old right-hander is considered the third best free-agent option on the starting pitching market behind Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg. He […]

Damien Williams, Darrel Williams Won't Practice

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that running backs Damien Williams (ribs) and Darrel Williams (hamstring) will not practice on Wednesday. Darrel is unlikely to suit up in Week 14 against the Patriots, while Damien still has a chance to be active if he can get in some practice time later this week. […]

Dalvin Cook Says He'll Play Sunday

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (shoulder) said he will play in Week 14 against the Lions. His shoulder issue is a pain-tolerance deal, and he's been told there shouldn't be any risk of further injury. Cook could be at risk of losing some touches to backup Alexander Mattison this weekend, but he needs to […]

A.J. Green Won't Play In Week 14

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) won't play in Week 14 against the Browns. Green has yet to play in 2019 and is a long shot to do so in the final three weeks. Set to become a free agent after this year, Green has likely already played […]

Kerryon Johnson Returning To Practice

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (knee), who is on Injured Reserve, will return to practice on Wednesday. Johnson can't come off IR until Week 16, but he could be an option for the Lions backfield the final two weeks of the season. With most fantasy title games taking place in Week 16, it means […]

Parris Campbell Will Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Parris Campbell (hand) will practice on Wednesday. Campbell has been out since Nov. 3 after having a procedure on his hand, but he has a good shot at returning in Week 14 against the Buccaneers. It would be notable since T.Y. Hilton (calf) is still ailing and Chester Rogers (knee) […]

T.Y. Hilton Out Of Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that T.Y. Hilton (calf) will not practice on Wednesday. Hilton has been hurt for the majority of the season and has really left his fantasy owners out in the cold. Consider him questionable, at best, to return in Week 14 against the Buccaneers. If he were to play […]

Marlon Mack Returning To Practice

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that running back Marlon Mack (hand) will return to practice on Wednesday. It gives Mack a shot at playing in Week 14 against the Buccaneers for the first time since Nov. 17 against the Jaguars. The Colts have been using a committee of Jonathan Williams, Jordan Wilkins and […]

Julio Jones Will Be Limited Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that wide receiver Julio Jones (shoulder) will get in a limited practice on Wednesday. Quinn said on Monday that Jones would have a good shot at playing in Week 14 against the Panthers after sitting out the Thanksgiving night game last Thursday. The veteran wide receiver has a […]

Greg Olsen Misses Practice Wednesday

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Olsen should be considered questionable, at best, to play in Week 14 against the Falcons. He'll need to get cleared from the league's protocol to have a shot at suiting up. If he can't go, Ian Thomas would be the primary pass-catching tight […]

Cam Newton To Have Surgery

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) plans to have surgery on his left foot, according to a source. Newton aggravated his Lisfranc foot injury in a Week 2 loss to the Buccaneers. He decided not to have surgery after visiting with Dr. Robert Anderson last month. Newton also disappointed in 2018 because of a right […]

Braves, Cole Hamels Agree To One-Year Deal

The Atlanta Braves and left-handed starter Cole Hamels agreed to a one-year, $18 million deal on Wednesday, according to sources. The veteran southpaw was looking for a short deal with a contending team, and he gets it with the Braves. Hamels is no longer the dominant pitcher he was earlier in his career, but he […]

Evan Engram Expects To Play On Monday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (foot) said that he expects to play on Monday night against the Eagles after missing the last two games. Rookie Kaden Smith has benefitted from Engram's absence the last two weeks with more playing time, but he's been nothing more than a touchdown-dependent, low-end TE2. Engram has been […]

Daniel Jones In Walking Boot, Likely To Miss Week 14

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that rookie quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) is in a walking boot with a mild high ankle sprain and is unlikely to play on Monday night against the Eagles. Backup Eli Manning will "very likely" start against the Eagles in Week 14. Jones has been mostly bad in […]

Blue Jays Interested In Hyun-Jin Ryu, Dallas Keuchel

The Toronto Blue Jays are interested in starting pitchers Hyun-Jin Ryu and Dallas Keuchel, among other free-agent starters. It's no secret that Toronto is in need of improving their starting rotation, but they won't shop at the top of the market for arms like Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg. Ryu was one of the best […]

Josh Hader Likely To Remain With Brewers

At least one of the teams engaged with the Milwaukee Brewers regarding closer Josh Hader is convinced that the Brewers will keep the left-handed reliever heading into the 2020 season. Milwaukee is rightfully asking for a king's ransom for the best left-handed reliever in the game, but it's still possible a desperate team gives up […]

Damien Williams Has Chance To Play In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (ribs) has a chance to play in Week 14 against the Patriots despite the team signing running back Spencer Ware on Tuesday. Ware will be an emergency option with Darrel Williams (hamstring) a long shot to play this Sunday. Damien Williams missed Week 13 coming out of the […]
