J.J. Arcega-Whiteside To See Expanded Role

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside will see an expanded role in the offense with Jordan Matthews now gone, according to head coach Doug Pederson. Arcega-Whiteside impressed the coaching staff in the preseason and was a popular rookie sleeper heading into the regular season, but it hasn't materialized in his rookie season. The 22-year-old […]

Jordan Howard Not Cleared For Contact

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Howard (shoulder) has not been cleared for contact as of Wednesday. Howard has missed the last two games with this injury, and he's off to a bad start so far as we head into Week 13. He'd be a very enticing RB2/3 if he's able to return against a bad […]

Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor To Practice In Full

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) are both expected to practice in full on Wednesday. Jeffery has missed the last two games, while Agholor sat out the Week 12 loss to the Seahawks. With both players expected to return, it should be a big boost for quarterback Carson Wentz in […]

Week 12 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

Heading into Week 12, let's take a look at a list of the players used the most around the league at their positions. At running back, Dalvin Cook leads the league with 214 rushing attempts, followed by Nick Chubb (201), Chris Carson (200), Christian McCaffrey (199) and Ezekiel Elliott (194). Austin Ekeler and McCaffrey are […]

Khalil Lee Suffers Broken Hand In Winter League

Kansas City Royals outfield prospect Khalil Lee (hand) will be shut down from winter ball after suffering a broken bone in his right hand on Wednesday when he was hit by a pitch. Lee was hitting .188 (3-for-16) in the Puerto Rican Winter League before his injury. The speedy outfielder slashed .264/.363/.372 with eight home […]

White Sox Looking At Zack Wheeler

The Chicago White Sox are in the market for a starting pitcher and have set their sights on starting pitcher Zack Wheeler. The ChiSox just made a big splash on Thursday by signing the best catcher on the market in Yasmani Grandal for four years, so now they'll look to bolster their rotation with one […]

Leighton Vander Esch Not Expected To Play Sunday

Concerns have surfaced around Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (neck), who has already missed one game this year with a neck injury, and he's not expected to play in Week 12 against the Patriots, according to sources. Vander Esch underwent an MRI exam on Thursday after a flare-up of the injury. It would be […]

Patriots Won't Re-Sign Antonio Brown

The New England Patriots won't be re-signing wide receiver Antonio Brown, according to a source. There were rumors circling that the Pats were looking at Brown again with Mohamed Sanu (ankle) potentially missing multiple games with a high ankle sprain. That's not the case, though, and Brown is highly unlikely to be signed with the […]

George Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders, Deebo Samuel Limited

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (ankle, knee) and wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) and Deebo Samuel (shoulder) were all limited in practice on Thursday. It's NBC Sports Bay Area's Matt Maiocco's opinion that all three will play on Sunday night against the Packers. That'll especially ring true if all three get in at […]

Texans Activate Jordan Thomas From Injured Reserve

The Houston Texans activated tight end Jordan Thomas (ribs) from the Injured Reserve on Thursday and waived defensive end Joel Heath and wide receiver Steven Mitchell in corresponding moves. As a sixth-round rookie last year, Thomas had 20 receptions for 215 yards and four touchdowns. Thomas has some long-term intrigue, but he'll return to a […]

Jonathan Williams Expected To Start Thursday

The Indianapolis Colts are expected to treat running back Jonathan Williams as the starter on Thursday night against the Texans. It doesn't mean that Williams will see the most touches in a backfield that will also feature Jordan Wilkins and Nyheim Hines in Marlon Mack's (hand) absence, but it's good news for those relying on […]

Nelson Agholor Says He's Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) said he is day-to-day, and he is hoping to get back on the practice field on Friday. Agholor is on the wrong side of questionable as things stand now, but he'd be in play to suit up if he was able to practice on Friday. Alshon Jeffery (ankle) […]

Phillip Dorsett Returns To Limited Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett (concussion) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. While Dorsett still needs final clearance from the concussion protocol, there's optimism that he'll get it and be able to play in Week 12 against the Cowboys. Even with Mohamed Sanu (ankle) out possibly multiple games, […]

Emmanuel Sanders, Matt Breida, Robbie Gould Not Practicing

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs), running back Matt Breida (ankle) and kicker Robbie Gould (quadriceps) are not practicing on Thursday for the second straight day. Sanders is looking more spry in his rehab than he did last week, so he should be able to play on Sunday night as long as he […]

George Kittle, Deebo Samuel Doing Non-Contact Work

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) and rookie wide receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder) are taking part in practice on Thursday in non-contact jerseys. It's progress for both players, especially for Kittle, who has missed the last two games. The problem for both if they are game-time decisions is that they play on Sunday […]

Robert Woods Will Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has returned to the team and will practice on Thursday, according to head coach Sean McVay. However, Woods' status for Monday night against the Ravens is still undecided. Woods was a surprise scratch last Sunday night due to personal reasons. Unless we get definitive word that he'll play […]

Diontae Johnson, Benny Snell Jr. Practicing In Full

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (concussion) and running back Benny Snell Jr. (knee) were both full participants in practice on Thursday. Johnson must still be cleared by an independent neurologist, but his chances of playing in Week 12 against the Bengals are looking good despite being carted off after a scary head injury in […]

James Conner, JuJu Smith-Schuster Miss Practice Again

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) both missed practice for the second day in a row on Thursday, and both are not expected to play in Week 12 against the Bengals. You should've already been planning to be without both players this week. The goods news is […]

Will Fuller Expected To Play Thursday

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring), who is a game-time decision for Thursday night against the Colts, is expected to play. Fuller brings a deep element to this offense, but he's been out since Week 7 and the Texans offense as a whole has struggled in his absence. He was injured in the last […]

Tim Patrick Returns To Practice Thursday

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick (shoulder) is practicing on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. It's a good sign for his availability in Week 12 against the Bills after he made his season debut in Week 11. Patrick effectively served as the No. 2 wideout behind Courtland Sutton, catching four of his eight […]

T.Y. Hilton Expected To Play Thursday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf), who is questionable for Thursday night against the Texans, believes he's good to go. The Colts don't have any issues with him not practicing and playing in Week 12. The Texans have been game-planning for him to play and expect him to be on the field. You'll still […]

Myles Garrett's Suspension Upheld

Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett's suspension appeal was upheld by the NFL, and he is suspended for the rest of the season and postseason. He can apply for reinstatement when the season ends. Garrett lost his cool at the end of last Thursday's game and hit Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph in the head with […]

Auden Tate, Stanley Morgan Jr. Miss Another Practice

Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Auden Tate (concussion) and Stanley Morgan Jr. missed their second straight practice this week on Thursday. With A.J. Green (ankle) likely to miss another game, Cincy's receiving corps is in dire straights. Expect Tyler Boyd and Alex Erickson to be the top two receivers, but they won't have much fantasy appeal […]

A.J. Green Not Practicing

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) is not at practice again on Thursday. Green was close to returning to action a few weeks ago, but a setback has now made it questionable as to whether he'll even play at all in 2019. As of right now it looks like that won't happen, so most […]

Devonta Freeman Missing Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Freeman is expected to miss at least another game, so he should be planted firmly on benches for Week 12 against the Buccaneers. Tampa has surprisingly been one of the best against the run in 2019, so […]

Julio Jones Back At Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (foot) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Jones was just being rested as a precaution on Wednesday. He'll be just fine to face the Buccaneers in Week 12. The veteran hasn't scored since Sept. 22, but he should be peppered with targets with tight […]

Nelson Agholor Out Again Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Agholor is on the wrong side of questionable unless he returns to practice on Friday. The 26-year-old hasn't really been a fantasy option unless Alshon Jeffery is hurt, and even then he has mostly underwhelmed. He had four catches […]

Adrian Peterson Not Spotted Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (toe) was not spotted at practice on Thursday. If he's officially out of practice, it'll be his second straight missed day ahead of Week 12 against the Lions. Peterson is in danger of missing the game this weekend as he fights through turf toe. Making matters worse for his […]

Mitch Trubisky Still Day-To-Day

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that quarterback Mitch Trubisky (hip) had a good practice on Wednesday, but he's still "day-to-day." Nagy called Trubisky's practice on Wednesday "a step in the right direction." Unless Trubisky has a setback in practice, he should be in line to start under center in Week 12 against the […]

Optimism Surrounding Phillip Dorsett

Although New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett (concussion) missed practice on Wednesday, there is mid-week optimism that he could be cleared in time to play in Week 12 against the Cowboys, according to a source. Mohamed Sanu (ankle) could now miss multiple games with a high ankle sprain, so the Patriots could be in […]
