Devin Funchess Limited Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Devin Funchess (back) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Barring a setback later this week, Funchess should be a go for Week 1 on Sunday against the Chargers on the road. Funchess' appeal as a late-round sleeper went out the window when Andrew Luck retired. He could still have some decent […]

Demaryius Thomas Limited In Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Thomas should be healthy enough to suit up in Week 1 on Sunday night against the Steelers, but his standing on the depth chart is what will likely make him a non-factor in fantasy to begin the year. Julian […]

Kenyan Drake Expected To See Plenty Of Touches

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (foot) is expected to play in Week 1 against the Ravens and get plenty of touches. "We're looking forward to giving him a lot of touches this week," head coach Brian Flores said on Wednesday. Drake will open the season well ahead of Kalen Ballage for the lead-back role, […]

Trent Williams Won't Play Sunday

Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams didn't show up to the team facility to practice with the team on Wednesday and he won't play on Sunday in Week 1 against the Eagles. Williams' contract holdout will continue at least into Week 1, but there's a chance he could rejoin the team ahead of Week 2. […]

Dallas Goedert Expected To Be Ready For Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (calf), who suffered his injury in the first preseason game and had been held out since, practiced in full on Wednesday and is expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Redskins. Goedert is expected to have a bigger role in Philly's offense alongside Zach Ertz this season, […]

Jadeveon Clowney, Ziggy Ansah To Play For Seahawks Defense

Seattle Seahawks defensive linemen Jadeveon Clowney and Ziggy Ansah (groin) are both in close to 100 percent shape and will play on Sunday in Week 1 against the Bengals. Defensive line coach Clint Hurtt said that Clowney is "running like a gazelle" in practice this week. Seattle's defensive line received a needed boost when Seattle […]

Amari Cooper A Full Practice Participant

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (foot) was a full practice participant on Wednesday. It's looking like Cooper won't be limited at all in Week 1 against the Giants despite missing most of training camp and all of the preseason. Dallas could wind up throwing more than usual in the season opener, too, with Ezekiel […]

Jalen Hurd Is Week-To-Week

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that rookie wide receiver Jalen Hurd (back) will not practice on Wednesday and probably won't play in Week 1 on Sunday against the Buccaneers. Hurd has gone from "day-to-day" to "week-to-week." Hurd is doubtful to play in the season opener and could also miss Week 2 at […]

Nick Foles Expected To Play Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles (abdominal) will appear on the team's injury report on Wednesday due to soreness in his abdominal oblique from last week, but he's fully expected to play in Week 1 on Sunday against the Chiefs. Going up against KC's high-powered offense, Jacksonville could be forced to air it out right away […]

Cam Newton Not On Week 1 Injury Report

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) is not listed on the team's Week 1 injury report against the Rams. Head coach Ron Rivera said there's no reason to hold Newton back in the season opener. With injury concerns surrounding his foot and right shoulder, Newton's fantasy value dropped in drafts, but he still has the […]

John Ross Will Play In Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (hamstring) will play in Week 1 against the Seahawks, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Ross missed all of the preseason and continues to battle injuries. His impressive speed hasn't translated to the NFL. While he may have more opportunities in the passing game to begin the year with […]

Trey Burton Questionable For Thursday Night

Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) is listed as questionable for the Week 1 season opener on Thursday night against the Packers. Burton was limited in practice this week, but there's a good chance he's inactive for Week 1. If Burton does wind up playing, he could have his snaps limited, which would make […]

Eagles Make Offer For Melvin Gordon

The Philadelphia Eagles offered running back Jordan Howard and a swap of mid-round picks in exchange for Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon, and the Chargers said no. The Bolts would've also had to eat salary in the swap. Gordon is set to miss at least Week 1 with no end in sight of […]

Jordan Reed Still In Concussion Protocol

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed remains in the concussion protocol, but head coach Jay Gruden is hopeful that Reed will do some work in practice on Wednesday. Reed has a very extensive history of concussions in the NFL, so it'd be foolish to expect him to suit up in Week 1 on the road […]

DeSean Jackson Will Play Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that wide receiver DeSean Jackson (finger) will play in Week 1 on Sunday against the Redskins at home. Returning to the Eagles in 2019, D-Jax is looking to bounce back from a disappointing season in his final year in Tampa, although he still had a very productive 18.9 […]

Robby Anderson Practicing Wednesday

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson (calf) is taking part in the early portion of practice on Wednesday. Anderson is on track to play in Week 1 at home against the Bills, barring a setback in practice this week. He'll likely be covered by Bills top cornerback Tre'Davious White, making Anderson more of a […]

Alvin Kamara Vital To The Passing Game

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara won't see a major increase in workload, and head coach Sean Payton said he likes Kamara's "pitch count" around 65 to 70 percent of the snaps. However, Kamara should remain heavily involved in the passing game, and ESPN's Mike Triplett thinks his 81 catches in 2017 and 2018 […]

Tyler Kroft Not Practicing Wednesday

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that tight end Tyler Kroft (foot) will not take part in practice on Wednesday. Kroft is unlikely to play in Week 1 against the Jets on the road and could also miss another week or two after that as he recovers from his injury. When healthy, he could […]

Cole Beasley To Be A Focal Point Of Offense

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley will be one of the main focal points of the offense this year. Despite the fact that he's averaged 3.1 catches per game in his time with the Cowboys, Beasley has plenty of sleeper appeal and has an outside chance of approaching the 100-catch mark if he stays healthy. […]

Ryan Succop Put On IR, Cairo Santos Signs

The Tennessee Titans placed kicker Ryan Succop (knee) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and signed free agent Cairo Santos in a corresponding move, according to a source. Succop will have to sit out the first half of the season now, so he's obviously not a fantasy option. Santos made 14 of his 18 field-goal attempts […]

Kenyan Drake Tops On The Depth Chart

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is listed as the team's No. 1 running back on their unofficial depth chart ahead of Kalen Ballage. Drake finished the 2018 season with 120 carries for 535 yards and four touchdowns. He also had a career-high 53 receptions for 477 yards and five additional scores. Drake isn't all […]

Offense To Revolve Around Evan Engram

The New York Giants passing game, especially early in the season with Eli Manning at quarterback, will revolve around running back Saquon Barkley and tight end Evan Engram. Engram was second among all tight ends with 320 receiving yards over the final four weeks of last season. The Giants are planning for a huge role […]

Ezekiel Elliott In For Decreased Workload In Week 1?

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will practice with the team on Wednesday, but a source said that the plan is for Elliott to see 20 to 25 snaps in Week 1 against the Giants. Rookie Tony Pollard will be behind Elliott, with fullback Jamize Olawale as a third-down guy for pass-protection purposes. Elliott is […]

Keke Coutee Still Listed As Starter

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee is still listed as the starter in the slot on the unofficial depth chart after the team traded for Kenny Stills. Coutee has been battling an ankle injury and is on the right track to play in Week 1 against the Saints on Monday night, but it's no sure […]

Melvin Gordon Unlikely To Be Traded

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon is unlikely to be traded before the start of the regular season. Gordon must now make the decision on whether to show up and play in Week 1 against the Colts or to continue his holdout and forfeit game checks. His fantasy stock has obviously fallen while being […]

Falcons, Julio Jones Close To Deal

Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank said that the team is "very, very close" to a deal with wide receiver Julio Jones. "I’d be surprised and disappointed if we didn’t get it done this week. ... I think it’s very reasonable to assume it will get done this week," Blank said. The 30-year-old wideout has five […]

Ezekiel Elliott In Shape To Play In Week 1

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is "very close" to inking an extension with the Cowboys and his agent, Rocky Arceneaux, said that his client is in shape to play in Week 1 this Sunday against the Giants if there is a contract. Elliott has flown back from Cabo, Mexico, and is currently in Dallas, […]

Jared Goff Lands Four-Year Extension

The Los Angeles Rams signed quarterback Jared Goff to a four-year, $134 million extension on Tuesday that will include an NFL-record $110 million in guarantees, according to a source. Goff is now under contract with the team through the 2024 season. Some are still skeptical as to whether Goff is an elite signal-caller, but the […]

D.K. Metcalf On Right Track For Week 1

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (knee) practiced on Monday and looks to be on the right track to be ready for Week 1, barring a setback. It's good news for a Seattle team that will be without David Moore to open the season. Tyler Lockett and Jaron Brown should see more targets on […]

Jace Sternberger Placed On Injured Reserve

The Green Bay Packers placed rookie tight end Jace Sternberger (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to a source. Sternberger will miss at least half of the season and is currently in a walking boot. He's merely a stash in deeper dynasty formats in 2019. The veteran Jimmy Graham will remain Green Bay's top […]
