Jack Doyle, Parris Campbell Active Against Broncos

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (groin) and rookie wide receiver Parris Campbell (abdomen) are both active for Week 8 against the Broncos. Neither player is much of a fantasy option, even in deeper leagues. Doyle could be less than 100 percent and has taken a back seat to teammate Eric Ebron this year. He's […]

A.J. Green Hopes To Return After Bye

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) is hopeful that he'll be able to return after the team's Week 9 bye. Green just has to make sure that his ankle can do everything he wants and that the injury won't linger the rest of the year. The No. 1 wideout has yet to make his […]

Redskins Shopping Josh Norman

The Washington Redskins are shopping veteran cornerback Josh Norman with the Oct. 29 trade deadline quickly approaching. If he's send packing, it'll likely be for very little given his age and big contract. Like the rest of Washington's defense this year, Norman has underwhelmed and has looked his age in 2019. Especially if Norman is […]

Falcons Not Shopping Austin Hooper

The Atlanta Falcons aren't shopping tight end Austin Hooper and are unlikely to trade him at next week's deadline. Atlanta is, however, looking to move linebacker Vic Beasley, who is making $12.8 million this year. To facilitate a trade for Beasley, the Falcons would need to eat some of his salary. Despite the team being […]

Bengals Could Trade Tyler Eifert

The Cincinnati Bengals aren't looking to make any trades before next week's deadline, but tight end Tyler Eifert has the best chance of being dealt, and the Bengals would likely ask for a third-round pick in return. Eifert has managed to stay healthy in 2019, but with the winless Bengals offense struggling as a whole […]

Teams Interested In Rashaad Penny

The Seattle Seahawks have received calls on running back Rashaad Penny as the trade deadline approaches, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. The former first-round pick has fallen well behind bell-cow Chris Carson, which has caused him to lose a lot of value, but the Seahawks still won't just give the young back away. Penny […]

Week 8 Fantasy Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

With the halfway point of the season nearly here, hopefully your fantasy football squad isn't "seeing ghosts" like Sam Darnold and is actually in the hunt for a playoff spot. Four more teams will be on bye in Week 9 and a season-high six teams will have the week off in Week 10, so the […]

Shohei Ohtani Up To 100 Feet In Throwing Program

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter/starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani (elbow, knee) is up to 100 feet in his throwing program and is on track to get on a mound in late November. The Japanese star had knee surgery in September. Ohtani is also working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He was only used as […]

Buccaneers Defense Could Get Jason Pierre-Paul Back

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that outside linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul (neck) has a chance to make his season debut against the Titans in Week 8. It's still unlikely that Tampa waits at least another week to bring JPP back, but it's a good sign that Pierre-Paul has made progress from his neck […]

Cowboys Seeking Team-Friendly Deal With Dak Prescott

The Dallas Cowboys expect to eventually work out a contract extension with quarterback Dak Prescott, but they are seeking a team-friendly deal that will allow them to build a team around Prescott. The quarterback is expected to get something above the $32 million per year in new money that the Eagles gave Carson Wentz. Owner […]

Yordan Alvarez The Odd Man Out In Game 3

Houston Astros rookie outfielder Yordan Alvarez is not in the starting lineup for Game 3 of the World Series against the Nationals on the road with the designated hitter no longer in play. Josh Reddick will stick in right field and will hit seventh on Friday against Nationals starter Anibal Sanchez. Alvarez took the league […]

Marquise Goodwin, Raheem Mostert Questionable

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (personal) and running back Raheem Mostert (knee) are both listed as questionable for Week 8 against the Panthers. Goodwin has been a complete non-factor this year with 11 catches (16 targets) for 181 yards and a touchdown in six games. He has just two catches on four targets […]

Jared Cook, Tre'Quan Smith Ruled Out

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook (ankle) and wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) missed practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 8 against the Cardinals. Cook is missing his second straight game, while Smith hasn't suited up since Sept. 15. With Cook out, Josh Hill will be the team's top pass-catching […]

Alvin Kamara Questionable Against Cardinals

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) was limited the last two days in practice and is questionable for Week 8 against the Cardinals. Kamara sat out last week and could miss two straight games heading into the team's Week 9 bye. If he's playing, he's obviously a must-start, but he'd be at risk […]

Emmanuel Sanders To Play A Lot In Debut

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that newly acquired wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders will play "a lot" in his team debut in Week 8 against the Panthers. It could just be coach speak, as Sanders had very little time to learn and digest the team's playbook after coming over in a trade from […]

Michael Badgley Won't Play In Week 8

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that kicker Michael Badgley (groin), who is questionable for Week 8 against the Bears, won't play on Sunday. Chase McLaughlin will get his fourth start at kicker but should be avoided in fantasy for a struggling offense in a tough matchup on the road in the Windy […]

Keenan Allen Will Be Limited If He Plays

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring), who will be a game-time decision in Week 8 against the Bears, will have his snaps limited during the game if he's active, according to head coach Anthony Lynn. If Allen can't play, Geremy Davis likely would start in his place alongside Mike Williams. Allen is a […]

Davante Adams Doubtful For Sunday Night

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) didn't practice all week and is doubtful for Week 8 against the Chiefs on Sunday night. Continue to leave Adams to your fantasy benches for at least another week. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers spread the ball out to all of his weapons in Week 7, making it tough […]

Julian Edelman, Rex Burkhead Questionable For Week 8

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) are both listed as questionable for Week 8 against the Browns despite practicing on a limited basis this week. Edelman is often questionable on the injury report, but he ultimately plays. He'll remain in play as a strong WR2 in PPR […]

Ryan Izzo, Matt LaCosse Out Against Browns

New England Patriots tight ends Ryan Izzo (concussion) and Matt LaCosse (knee) have both been ruled out for Week 8 against the Browns. Watson had three catches for 18 yards in his season debut against the Jets on Monday night and will remain the starter at the position with both Izzo and LaCosse out. The […]

Jack Doyle Questionable For Week 8

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (groin) was limited in practice on Friday and is now questionable for Week 8 against the Broncos. Doyle has been playing second fiddle to Eric Ebron all year long and has 17 receptions for 149 yards and just one touchdown in six games for the Colts. Doyle hasn't caught […]

Christian Kirk Will Be Game-Time Decision

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Week 8 against the Saints, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury. Kirk is off the fantasy radar after not having played since Sept. 29 against the Seahawks. He hasn't done much other than a six-catch, 114-yard game on Sept. 15 against the […]

Asdrubal Cabrera Starting Friday, Howie Kendrick On The Bench

Washington Nationals infielder Asdrubal Cabrera is starting at second base and is hitting fifth against Astros starter Zack Greinke in Game 3 of the World Series on Friday. Howie Kendrick will start this game on the bench. Cabrera, a switch-hitter, has hit just .222 (4-for-18) in the postseason this year, but he has a better […]

Darius Slay Ruled Out Against Giants

Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Giants. The Giants passing game will actually have a pretty decent chance to put up numbers against Detroit's secondary without Slay in the fold. Golden Tate will be quarterback Daniel Jones' preferred target in the middle of the field, and […]

Breshad Perriman Will Return In Week 8

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Breshad Perriman (hamstring) practiced in full all week and was taken off the final injury report for Week 8 against the Titans. Perriman will see the field for the first time since Sept. 29 against the Rams. The 26-year-old hasn't become a fixture in this offense, catching just three passes […]

Jaylen Samuels, James Washington Could Return

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels (knee) and wide receiver James Washington (shoulder) have both practiced in full the last two days and could return on Monday night against the Dolphins. Both Samuels and Washington could return to action this week. Samuels would return to his backup role behind James Conner, although he could see […]

DeSean Jackson, Darren Sproles, Jason Peters Out

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen), running back Darren Sproles (quadriceps) and left tackle Jason Peters (knee) have all been ruled out for Week 8 against the Bills after missing practice all week. Jackson hasn't played since Week 2 and is without a timetable to return. The absence of his field-stretching prowess is really […]

Delanie Walker Ruled Out For Week 8

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 8 against the Buccaneers. Walker aggravated the ankle injury that kept him out all season in 2018, so he might miss multiple weeks. The aging tight end often plays through injuries, but this one is a little more serious. He's droppable in […]

Josh Jacobs Expected To Play Sunday

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden expects rookie running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) to play in Week 8 against the Texans. Jacobs will be listed as questionable on the final injury report, but he's expected to give it a go against Houston on the road. The rookie has been exceptional this year and has seen […]

Drew Brees Still In Play For Week 8

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton has declined to name a starting quarterback for Week 8 against the Cardinals. Drew Brees (thumb) was limited in practice on Thursday and isn't being ruled out over Teddy Bridgewater just yet. It wouldn't be a surprise if the Saints hold Brees out another week with their bye […]
