The Baltimore Ravens and Pro Bowl cornerback Marcus Peters agreed to a three-year, $42 million contract extension on Saturday, according to a source. The deal includes $32 million guaranteed, which is 76 percent of the total contract. Peters will make $20.5 million in the first year, and the new extension will allow him to hit […]

Texans Sign Whitney Mercilus For Four Years

The Houston Texans and linebacker Whitney Mercilus reached an agreement on Saturday on a four-year deal that will keep him from reaching free agency after the 2019 season, according to a source. Financial terms of the deal weren't given. The 29-year-old Mercilus has 48 total tackles (33 solo), 7.5 sacks, four forced fumbles, a fumble […]

Marlins Finalizing Deal With Corey Dickerson

The Miami Marlins are finalizing a two-year deal with outfielder Corey Dickerson on Saturday. Financial terms of the deal weren't disclosed. The Marlins preferred to land Yasiel Puig, a Cuban native, but they settled for the fallback option in Dickerson. Dickerson is an underrated offensive commodity, but he played in just 78 games with the […]

Rams Place Darrell Henderson On Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Rams placed rookie running back Darrell Henderson (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Saturday and promoted running back John Kelly from the practice squad in a corresponding move. The 22-year-old third-round pick didn't wind up playing as big of a role in the team's offense as most projected before the season. Henderson had […]

Josh Jacobs Officially Out For Week 17

Oakland Raiders rookie running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for Week 17 against the Broncos. Jacobs will end his impressive first year in the NFL with 242 carries for 1,150 yards rushing and seven touchdowns. He added 20 receptions for 166 scoreless yards through the air. His 4.8 yards-per-carry average was […]

Doug Marrone Will Be Fired After Week 17

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone has been informed that he will be dismissed following the Week 17 season finale against the Colts, according to sources. This doesn't come as a huge surprise with the Jaguars sitting at 5-10 and in last place in the AFC South with one game remaining in the season. Marrone […]

Bengals Sign Trey Hopkins To Extension

The Cincinnati Bengals signed center Trey Hopkins to a three-year, $20.4 million extension on Saturday, according to a source. Hopkins will receive $4.5 million in a guaranteed roster bonus and will make $8.95 million in 2020 and $14.4 million after Year 2. Hopkins was a steady presence for a Bengals offensive line that was extremely […]

Golden Tate, Rhett Ellison Could Be Salary Cuts

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate and tight end Rhett Ellison could be salary cap cuts this offseason. Tate's 2020 salary isn't guaranteed because of his suspension for performance-enhancing drugs this year. The Giants could clear his $7.9 million salary off the books by cutting him, leaving only $2.3 million in dead money left. […]

David Njoku Unsure If He'll Be Back

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku, who has fallen out of favor with head coach Freddie Kitchens, will likely be gone if Kitchens remains the head coach in 2020. The No. 29 overall pick in 2017 has been a healthy scratch the last two weeks and could be out again in the Week 17 finale […]

Leonard Fournette Downgraded To Doubtful

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (illness, neck) has been downgraded to doubtful for Week 17 against the Colts. Cornerback A.J. Bouye (wrist) has also been ruled out. Fournette will finish with his second 1,000-yard season in three years and a career-high 1,152 rushing yards in 15 games, but he found the end zone just […]

Sean Mannion To Get Start Sunday

With Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins in line to rest up for the playoffs in Week 17 against the Bears, a source said on Friday that backup Sean Mannion is expected to start against Chicago. The Vikings are locked into the No. 6 seed in the NFC, so they have nothing to gain by playing […]

Rangers The Front-Runners For Nicholas Castellanos

The Texas Rangers appear to be the front-runners to sign outfielder Nicholas Castellanos. The Rangers missed out on signing third baseman Anthony Rendon. The Giants, Reds and Cubs are still in the mix on Castellanos. After adding Corey Kluber, Jordan Lyles and Kyle Gibson to the starting rotation, Texas is now looking for an impact […]

Eli Manning Likely To Retire

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning will likely retire at the end of this season rather than hold the clipboard again for Daniel Jones. If Manning wants to continue playing, he'll have to do so with another team in 2020, as he's set to become a free agent after this season. If this is indeed […]

Robby Anderson May Be Too Expensive For Jets

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson wants to stay with the team after the 2019 season, but he may have priced himself out of New York's plans after playing much better in recent weeks. Anderson is also going to demand more than $10 million per season over the long term. The fourth-year wideout has […]

Amari Cooper Wants To Stay With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper, who will be a free agent after the season, said he wants to remain with the Cowboys. Cooper could receive the franchise tag in the offseason, but Week 17 against the Redskins could also be his last game with the team if the Eagles beat the Giants. The 25-year-old […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Expected To Play Against Bengals

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (flu), who is listed as questionable for Week 17 against the Bengals, is expected to play on Sunday, according to a source. Even with Beckham also playing through a hernia, he should be good to go for the season finale in Week 17. The 27-year-old has been a […]

Malik Turner Ruled Out Against 49ers

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Malik Turner (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 17 against the 49ers. Turner has been a non-factor for fantasy owners in 2019 with just 15 receptions on 22 targets for 245 yards and one touchdown in his second season in the NFL. In this run-first offense, it's difficult enough for […]

Charles Clay Questionable Against Rams

Arizona Cardinals tight end Charles Clay (calf) didn't practice all week but is questionable for Week 17 against the Rams. He's certainly on the wrong side of questionable for this one. The 30-year-old has only 18 receptions for 237 yards and a touchdown in 15 games this year, so fantasy owners weren't exactly looking for […]

Jameis Winston Questionable For Week 17

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (knee, thumb) practiced in full the last two days but is questionable for Week 17 against the Falcons. Winston has played the last two weeks with a fractured thumb, and he should do so again to end the 2019 regular season. Atlanta's defense has improved in the second half […]

Robby Anderson, Demaryius Thomas Questionable

New York Jets wide receivers Robby Anderson (calf) and Demaryius Thomas (hamstring, knee) were both limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 17 against the Bills. Safety Jamal Adams (ankle) is also questionable. While the Bills could rest some starters in the regular season finale, Anderson still isn't all that attractive for […]

Jadeveon Clowney, Shaquill Griffin To Return Against 49ers

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (abdomen) and cornerback Shaquill Griffin (hamstring) are not listed on the final injury report for Week 17 against the 49ers. Clowney will be making his return for the first time since Week 14. It's a huge upgrade for a Seattle pass rush as they attempt to beat the Niners […]

Allen Hurns Questionable Against Patriots

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Allen Hurns (ankle, neck) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable for Week 17 against the Patriots. Hurns has just 32 catches for 416 yards and two touchdowns on the season, so he hasn't really been on the fantasy radar to begin with, let alone in a tough matchup […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Questionable For Week 17

Cleveland Browns tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (illness) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable for Week 17 against the Bengals. Seals-Jones had two touchdowns on three catches two weeks ago against the horrible Cardinals Defense versus tight ends, but he has only 14 catches for 229 yards and four touchdowns in nine games […]

Blue Jays Sign Yamaguchi Shun

The Toronto Blue Jays signed Japanese pitcher Yamaguchi Shun to a two-year, $6.35 million deal on Friday. He'll receive $3.175 million per season and could make another $1.4 million per year in incentives if he maxes out at 170 innings. The Blue Jays will have another option for their starting rotation after adding Hyun-Jin Ryu, […]

Drew Brees Will Play In Week 17

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 17 against the Panthers. New Orleans can still get the top overall seed and home-field advantage in the NFC with a win and a 49ers loss this weekend, so they'll be playing their starters. […]

Dak Prescott Not On Final Injury Report

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (shoulder) returned to a limited practice on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 17 against the Redskins. Prescott was held out of practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but he'll play in this must-win contest against Washington. While he probably won't be at 100 percent on […]

Julian Edelman Questionable Against Dolphins

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee, shoulder) is questionable for Week 17 against the Dolphins. The Patriots must win to keep a first-round bye in the AFC playoffs, so it'd be a huge surprise if Edelman didn't suit up on Sunday. He's been held in check the last two weeks by the Bengals […]

Zach Ertz, Nelson Agholor Ruled Out

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (back, ribs) and wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) missed practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 17 against the Giants. Right tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) is questionable. Philly's offense is extremely beat up for this must-win game against New York. With Ertz out, Dallas Goedert will […]

DeAndre Hopkins, Deshaun Watson, Kenny Stills Questionable

Houston Texans wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins (illness) and Kenny Stills (knee) and quarterback Deshaun Watson (back) are all listed as questionable for Week 17 against the Titans. Left tackle Laremy Tunsil (ankle) is also questionable. With little to play for in the regular season finale, it's possible all of them could be inactive or limited […]

Saints Won't Sign Antonio Brown Right Now

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said the team won't sign free-agent wide receiver Antonio Brown "right now" after working him out on Friday. Brown's visit was more about "due diligence" at this point of the season, and the team had six receivers at their facility on Friday. Even if Brown were to sign […]
