Aaron Rodgers May Not Have David Bakhtiari On Sunday

Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari (back) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Vikings. Rodgers would still be a QB1 for fantasy owners should Bakhtiari not play, but he could also struggle to post Rodgers-like numbers like he did in Week 1 against the Bears. The Vikings Defense and pass rush […]

Matthew Stafford May Be Without Blind-Side Protector

Detroit Lions left tackle Taylor Decker (back) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Chargers. If Decker isn't able to play, quarterback Matthew Stafford could see plenty of pressure from Chargers pass-rushers Melvin Ingram and Joey Bosa. Receivers Kenny Golladay and Marvin Jones could also be in for a tough day, while slot […]

Derrius Guice Put On Injured Reserve

The Washington Redskins placed running back Derrius Guice (knee) on the Injured Reserve on Friday, according to a source. Guice had surgery to fix a torn meniscus in his knee on Thursday and will be out for the next six to eight weeks. He has a chance of returning later this season, but he can […]

Trey Burton Questionable Against Broncos

Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Broncos after sitting out the season opener. Burton could once again be a game-time decision, which makes him one to avoid again with the game kicking off in the afternoon slate. Burton had surgery to fix a sports hernia […]

Albert Wilson, Reshad Jones Ruled Out

The Miami Dolphins ruled out wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) and safety Reshad Jones (ankle) for Week 2 against the Patriots. Miami will go with Devante Parker, Allen Hurns, Jakeem Grant and rookie Preston Williams as their receivers at home against New England. It's really hard to make a case for starting any of […]

Le'Veon Bell Good To Go For Week 2

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase confirmed on Friday that running back Le'Veon Bell (shoulder) is good to go for the Monday night game against the Browns. Gase said Bell's soreness had nothing to do with the fact that Bell played every snap in Week 1. It doesn't sound like Bell will be limited […]

Dolphins Place Julie'n Davenport On Injured Reserve

The Miami Dolphins placed offensive tackle Julie'n Davenport (knee, leg) on Injured Reserve on Friday, but he's a candidate to return later this season. Davenport came over to Miami in the trade that sent Laremy Tunsil to the Texans, and he started at right tackle in the Week 1 blowout loss to the Ravens. It's […]

Nick Bosa, Jimmie Ward Questionable For 49ers Defense

San Francisco 49ers rookie defensive end Nick Bosa (ankle) and defensive back Jimmie Ward (hand) are both listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Bengals. Bosa tweaked his injured ankle in Week 1 but returned to practice on Friday and is expected to play, even if he's limited. Bosa, the second overall pick in […]

Trent Taylor, Jalen Hurd Ruled Out Against Bengals

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Trent Taylor (foot) and Jalen Hurd (back) have both been ruled out for Week 2 against the Bengals. Consider both Taylor and Hurd week-to-week for now. The Niners should go with three-wide sets of Marquise Goodwin, rookie Deebo Samuel and Dante Pettis this weekend, but Pettis played just two snaps […]

Rashard Higgins Could Be Questionable For Monday Night

Cleveland Browns head coach Freddie Kitchens said that he's unsure if wide receiver Rashard Higgins (knee) will be able to play on Monday night against the Jets. Higgins played just 32 percent of the offensive snaps and caught two of three targets for 46 yards in Week 1 against the Titans, so he wouldn't be […]

Tyler Lockett Is Fine

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that wide receiver Tyler Lockett (back) is "fine" after he missed practice on Wednesday. Lockett had a good day in his return to practice on Thursday and should be fine to play in Week 2 on the road against the Steelers. Lockett caught only one pass in Week […]

Jaguars Defense Won't Have Yannick Ngakoue In Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Texans. Head coach Doug Marrone also said he doesn't think cornerback A.J. Bouye (hip) will play. Ngakoue was one of Jacksonville's most consistent edge rushers in 2018, so his loss is bad news for their defensive unit, although Houston's […]

Marqise Lee Questionable For Week 2

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marqise Lee (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Texans. Lee is currently buried on the depth chart behind Dede Westbrook, D.J. Chark and Chris Conley, so he's not worth owning in standard leagues for now. The 27-year-old played limited snaps in the Week 1 loss to the […]

Jordan Reed Won't Play Against Cowboys

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Cowboys. Reed missed practice on Friday and will miss his second straight game to begin the season. At this point, it's almost hard to justify keeping Reed on your roster, as he'll be an injury risk of a TE2 […]

Keke Coutee Trending Toward Being Active

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said that wide receiver Keke Coutee (ankle) is "trending toward being able to play" in Week 2 against the Jaguars. Coutee has practiced in full all week after being inactive in Week 1, so if he doesn't play this weekend it probably won't have anything to do with his […]

Mike Williams Returns To Practice Friday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) is practicing Friday after sitting out the last two days. It's definitely a positive, but Williams could still be questionable for Week 2 against the Lions and might be a game-time decision. If Williams is able to play at Detroit, he would be a risk/reward WR3 with […]

Joe Mixon Questionable Against 49ers

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the 49ers. Mixon will likely be a game-time decision, but we'll know early Sunday whether he's playing or not. If you're looking for positives, he returned to practice on Friday. If he's active, he might be on a snap count […]

Nick Bosa Looks Ready For 49ers Defense

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa (ankle) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out the last two days with a sore ankle, and he looks on pace to play on Sunday against the Bengals. The 21-year-old second overall pick should be active in Week 2, but he might have his snaps limited once […]

Cody Latimer Questionable For Week 2

New York Giants wide receiver Cody Latimer (calf) is listed as questionable for Week 2 against the Bills. With Sterling Shepard (concussion) and rookie Darius Slayton (hamstring) already ruled out, the Giants could be down to Bennie Fowler, Russell Shepard and Cody Core against a stout Buffalo pass defense this weekend. Even if Latimer ends […]

Dontrell Hilliard Out Again Friday

Cleveland Browns running back Dontrell Hilliard (concussion) is out of practice for the second straight day on Friday. It's not looking good for Hilliard playing on Monday night against the Jets, but he still has a little more time to get cleared this weekend. The backup to Nick Chubb vultured a touchdown in Week 1, […]

Dante Pettis Expects To Play More In Week 2

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis (groin) said his "body's back to normal" and that he expects to see more action in Week 2 than the two snaps he played in the season opener against the Buccaneers. Not only has Pettis been limited by an injury to start the year, but San Fran's coaching […]

Sterling Shepard Ruled Out Against Buffalo

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Bills. That was the expectation, as Shepard had yet to be cleared to practice this week. With Golden Tate still serving a suspension and now Shepard ruled out, the G-Men will likely use Bennie Fowler, Russell Shepard and […]

Mark Andrews, Marquise Brown Absent Friday

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (undisclosed) and rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (foot) were both absent from practice on Friday. Brown also missed practice last Friday but was still able to make his NFL debut and posted big numbers against the Dolphins. Andrews played 42 percent of the snaps in Week 1 but still […]

Le'Veon Bell Expected To Practice Saturday

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that running back Le'Veon Bell (shoulder) is expected to return to practice on Saturday after sitting out practices this week and undergoing an MRI exam for a shoulder issue. Gase said Bell's shoulder problem was a result in being too aggressive in practice. The star running back […]

Sam Darnold Won't Go On Injured Reserve

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) is not a candidate to go on Injured Reserve while he deals with mononucleosis. Darnold was quickly ruled out for Monday night against the Browns and could also miss Week 3. Trevor Siemian will get the start in Week 2 against Cleveland […]

Antonio Brown Struggling To Learn Offense?

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said that wide receiver Antonio Brown has a "long way to go" in learning the team's offense and that there are few similarities between their offense and the systems that Brown played in at Pittsburgh and Oakland. The NFL won't put Brown on the commissioner's exempt list at […]

Torrey Smith Retires

Free-agent wide receiver Torrey Smith announced his retirement on Friday, wrapping up a career that included 5,141 yards and two Super Bowl titles. A prestigious deep threat during his career, Smith entered 2019 ranked third in yards per catch (16.1) among active wideouts behind DeSean Jackson (17.4) and Josh Gordon (17.3). The 30-year-old played eight […]

Albert Wilson, Reshad Jones Not Looking Good For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) and safety Reshad Jones (ankle) are not practicing on Friday. Neither player has practiced all week, so it looks as though the Dolphins are preparing to be without them in Week 2 against the Patriots. With Wilson unlikely to suit up, quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will be throwing […]

Less Optimism That Jordan Reed Plays In Week 2

There is now less optimism that Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) will play in Week 2 against the Cowboys, according to a source. What else is new? Reed has been the walking wounded in his career and has yet to play in 2019. He's always been an intriguing fantasy option when on the […]

Joe Mixon Practicing Friday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is practicing on Friday. It gives Mixon owners hope that he'll be able to play through his sprained ankle in Week 2 against the 49ers, but even if he does he might be limited and could cede touches to backup Giovani Bernard. Mixon could be a game-time decision […]
