Von Miller Trending In Right Direction

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller (knee), who is considered 50-50 for Week 13 against the Chargers, is trending in the right direction to play, according to a source. Miller has played through injuries before and has a positive outlook. The former Super Bowl MVP has a total of 35 tackles and six sacks on […]

Drew Lock Will Start Against Chargers

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Drew Lock (thumb) will make his first NFL start in Week 13 against the Chargers, according to league sources. Lock should be a step up from Brandon Allen to close out the season, but he's raw and will be inconsistent in his first taste of NFL action. The Chargers are getting […]

Miles Boykin, Nick Boyle Active

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Miles Boykin (ankle) and tight end Nick Boyle (ankle) are both active for Week 13 against the 49ers. In this tough matchup against San Francisco, neither players should be in starting lineups. Boykin is a speed threat in his first NFL season, but he has only 11 catches for 185 […]

Parris Campbell Out, Mo Alie-Cox Active In Week 13

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Parris Campbell (hand) is inactive in Week 13 against the Titans, but tight end Mo Alie-Cox (thumb) will play. Campbell is getting really close to a return, so we'd expect him to be back for Week 14. However, in a crowded receiving corps on a run-first team, Campbell is unlikely […]

Tajae Sharpe Ruled Out For Week 13

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (hamstring) is out for Week 13 against the Colts. Sharpe was downgraded to questionable for this Sunday's game on Saturday, and now he's officially out. As no better than the fourth receiving option on a run-first team, Sharpe predictably has done very little (13 catches, 194 yards, two touchdowns) […]

Chris Thompson Active Against Panthers

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) is officially active for Week 13 against the Panthers. With Thompson back in the fold to help catch passes out of the backfield, Wendell Smallwood is a healthy scratch this week. The 29-year-old hasn't played since Oct. 13, so he could also have his snaps limited. In Washington's […]

Miles Sanders To See Bulk Of Carries

With Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) out in Week 13 against the Dolphins, rookie Miles Sanders is expected to see the bulk of the carries in the backfield. Sanders' workload has increased each of the last three weeks with Howard sidelined, and that will continue this weekend. The matchup couldn't be any better […]

Tajae Sharpe Questionable Against Colts

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (hamstring) has been downgraded to questionable for Week 13 against the Colts. Sharpe has only 13 receptions on 21 targets for 194 yards and two touchdowns in nine games this year, so he's been off the fantasy radar the entire season. A.J. Brown and Corey Davis remain the Titans […]

Jeff Driskel Heads To Injured Reserve

The Detroit Lions placed quarterback Jeff Driskel (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Saturday and signed quarterback Kyle Sloter to the active roster from the Cardinals practice squad in a corresponding move. Detroit also signed quarterback Joe Callahan to the practice squad. Driskel wasn't terrible in a couple outings in place of Matthew Stafford (back), and […]

David Njoku Won't Play In Week 13

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (wrist) won't come off the Injured Reserve to play in Week 13 against the Steelers. Njoku says he's ready to go, but head coach Freddie Kitchens said they're still working through some things. Njoku has been out since suffering his injury in Week 2, but it looks like he'll […]

Tyler Lockett Good To Go For Monday Night

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (illness, shin) was taken off the final injury report for Monday night against the Vikings. After two straight 100-yard performances on Oct. 27 and Nov. 3, Lockett followed that up with just four catches for 64 yards the last two weeks against the Eagles and 49ers. Another tough matchup […]

Week 13 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

While most people will be out trying to score deals of a lifetime at their local stores this weekend, some of us are still trying to find a way to get into the fantasy playoffs. It's do-or-die week for many teams with just one week until the fantasy playoffs begin. With your stomachs full of […]

Damarious Randall Won't Play In Week 13

Cleveland Browns safety Damarious Randall has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Steelers due to a coaching decision. Whatever the real reason may be, Cleveland's secondary will be weaker in this divisional tilt on Sunday. However, it remains to be seen if Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges can take advantage while also missing starting […]

Jason McCourty Out For Patriots Defense

New England Patriots cornerback Jason McCourty (groin) has been ruled out for the second straight game for Week 13 against the Texans on Sunday night. It's a downgrade for New England's defense against a Houston wideout corps featuring DeAndre Hopkins, Will Fuller and Kenny Stills. The Pats defense has been strong all year, but they […]

Phillies Interested In Dellin Betances, Austin Romine

The Philadelphia Phillies are interested in relief pitcher Dellin Betances and catcher Austin Romine, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The Phillies have also been linked to shortstop Didi Gregorius. It makes more sense now that manager Joe Girardi, who coached this trio with the Yankees, is the skipper of the Phillies. […]

Blue Jays Could Go After Zack Wheeler

The Toronto Blue Jays top priority this winter is to improve their starting rotation, and starting pitcher Zack Wheeler could be at the top of their wish list. Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg aren't realistic options. The 29-year-old Wheeler went 11-8 with a 3.96 ERA and 195 strikeouts over 195 1/3 innings. The right-hander is […]

Bears Put Adam Shaheen On Injured Reserve

The Chicago Bears placed tight end Adam Shaheen (foot) on Injured Reserve on Saturday, ending his season. Shaheen failed to capitalize this year with Trey Burton injured and ineffective for most of the year. The 25-year-old had just nine receptions for 74 yards and no touchdowns in eight games after securing just five catches for […]

Derwin James, Adrian Phillips Activated From Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Chargers activated safeties Derwin James (foot) and Adrian Phillips (forearm) from Injured Reserve on Saturday. James, an All-Pro in his rookie season in 2018, practiced all week without any issues and will make his season debut in Week 13 against the Broncos. Head coach Anthony Lynn said he will closely monitor both […]

Marlon Mack Hoping To Return In Week 14

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hand) is hopeful of returning to action in Week 14 against the Buccaneers. Mack has been out since Nov. 17, but he got in some practice this week and has a realistic chance of making it back next weekend to face the Bucs. Jonathan Williams has been the man […]

Adam Thielen 50-50 For Monday Night

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) practiced on a limited basis all week but is 50-50 to play in Week 13 against the Seahawks on Monday night. Thielen is much closer to playing this week after the Week 12 bye, but there's still a chance that Minnesota plays it safe if he's not 100 […]

Eagles Promote Josh Perkins To Active Roster

The Philadelphia Eagles promoted tight end Josh Perkins from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday. They also activated cornerback Cre'Von LeBlanc from Injured Reserve and waived defensive tackle Albert Huggins. Perkins' promotion could be a sign that tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring), who is questionable for Week 13 against the Dolphins, won't […]

Jordan Howard Ruled Out Against Dolphins

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Dolphins. It will be Howard's third straight missed game. In his place, rookie Miles Sanders will continue to lead this backfield ahead of Jay Ajayi. Sanders has had double-digit carries each of the last three games with Howard sidelined, […]

Leighton Vander Esch Not Expected To Play In Week 14

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch (neck) is not expected to play in Week 14 next Thursday night against the Bears. Vander Esch has been out since Week 11 and could be a candidate for Injured Reserve if he doesn't improve anytime soon. Sean Lee is a capable fill-in for more playing time with Vander […]

Von Miller 50-50 To Play In Week 13

Denver Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller (knee), who is questionable for Week 13 against the Chargers, is "truly 50-50" to play on Sunday, according to head coach Vic Fangio. The good news is that Miller practiced on Friday in a limited fashion after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. Miller last missed a regular season […]

Dalvin Cook Returns To Full Practice Friday

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (chest) returned to a full practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday. The Vikings were just resting their workhorse back on Thursday while coming off their bye week. He should be good to go for Monday night's showdown against the Seahawks. Cook is second behind only Christian McCaffrey […]

Tyler Lockett Misses Practice With Illness

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (illness, shin) did not practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday. Lockett should be fine for Monday night against the Seahawks, but you'll want to check his final injury designation on Saturday. If he's good to go, Lockett will have WR1 upside, as usual. Wide receivers D.K. Metcalf […]

Seahawks Committed To Chris Carson

Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said that "Chris Carson is our guy" heading into Week 13 against the Vikings on Monday night. However, the OC did say he liked seeing backup Rashaad Penny get rewarded with a big game last week after Carson's fumbling issues resurfaced. Penny finally had a good game for fantasy […]

Omar Narvaez A Trade Candidate

Seattle Mariners catcher Omar Narvaez, who hit a very solid .278/.353/.460 with 22 home runs in 2019, is a candidate to be traded after the team signed first baseman Evan White to a long-term deal earlier this week. Austin Nola is now free to become the backup catcher for Tom Murphy in 2020. Seattle also […]

Yankees Interested In Blake Treinen

The New York Yankees are one of the teams interested in trading for Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Blake Treinen, according to sources. The A's could facilitate a trade with Treinen, who is a non-tender candidate this offseason. The 31-year-old's stock is way down after he posted a 4.91 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 16 saves in […]

Jadeveon Clowney Dealing With Core Muscle Injury

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (abdomen), who missed the Week 12 contest against the Eagles, is dealing with a core muscle injury. He was expected to practice in a limited basis on Friday, but expect him to be questionable for Monday night's showdown against the Vikings. Clowney said he suffered the injury against the […]
