Falcons Defense Acquires Jonathan Cyprien

The Atlanta Falcons acquired safety Jonathan Cyprien and a 2020 seventh-round pick from the Eagles on Monday in exchange for linebacker Duke Riley and a 2020 sixth-round pick, according to sources. The Falcons lost starting safety Keanu Neal to another season-ending injury a week ago and were torched by the Titans and quarterback Marcus Mariota […]

Melvin Ingram Expected To Miss Some Time

Los Angeles Chargers pass-rusher Melvin Ingram (hamstring) is expected to miss a couple weeks with a hamstring injury that he suffered in Week 4 against the Dolphins. The 30-year-old defensive end has 14 total tackles and one sack through four games. LA's defense/special teams will take a hit with him out, and Joey Bosa will […]

Marlon Mack, Parris Campbell To Be Monitored This Week

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that running back Marlon Mack (ankle) and wide receiver Parris Campbell (abdomen) will be monitored throughout the week in practice. Mack tweaked his ankle in the Week 4 loss to the Raiders, but it was game script late in the game and not his injury that kept him […]

Rashaad Penny Listed As Full Participant Monday

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on the team's estimated practice report on Monday, and he's expected to play on Thursday night against the Rams. After missing the last two games, Penny should be able to play against the Rams this week, where he'll be an RB3/flex in […]

Josh Allen In Concussion Protocol

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol on Monday after leaving the game in the fourth quarter against the Patriots after taking a big hit to the head. There's no guarantee that Allen will be cleared ahead of the Week 5 matchup with the Titans, so you need to have […]

Dak Prescott Won't Have Tyron Smith In Week 5

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) will be out for Week 5 against the Packers, according to a source, but he isn't being ruled out for Week 6 against the Jets. Smith received some good news after an MRI exam, and his injury isn't the typical four- to six-week high ankle sprain. The Pro […]

Dolphins Optimistic Albert Wilson Will Return After Bye

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores is "optimistic" that wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf) will return in Week 6 against the Redskins after the team's bye week in Week 5. Wilson aggravated his calf in the season opener and hasn't played since. When he returns, he'll be in the slot with Devante Parker and rookie […]

Melvin Ingram, Denzel Perryman Injured In Week 4

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Melvin Ingram (hamstring) and linebacker Denzel Perryman (concussion) were both injured in the Week 4 win over the Dolphins. It's unclear how serious either player's injuries are, but they should be considered questionable to play in Week 5 at home against the Broncos. Even were both players to sit out […]

Sean Culkin Done For The Year

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that tight end Sean Culkin (Achilles) tore his Achilles in the Week 4 win over the Dolphins and is done for the year. Mostly a blocking tight end, Culkin will finish the year with just one catch for 12 yards, which came against Miami with Virgil Green […]

Broncos Defense Loses Bradley Chubb For Season

Denver Broncos defensive end Bradley Chubb (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the Week 4 loss to the Jaguars and is out for the year, according to a source. It's a crushing blow to a defense that hasn't lived up to high expectations through the first quarter of the season. Chubb finally broke through for […]

T.J. Hockenson To Avoid Injured Reserve

Detroit Lions rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson (concussion, shoulder) will not be placed on Injured Reserve after landing hard on his right shoulder and head and knocking himself out in the Week 4 loss to the Chiefs. It was a scary scene on Sunday, as Hockenson had to be carted off the field. There's no […]

Jets Defense Will Have Quinnen Williams Against Eagles

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that rookie defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (ankle) will play in Week 5 against the Eagles. Having the first-round pick back on the field is certainly good news for the Jets coming off their bye, but it looks like linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) will miss another week. Until […]

C.J. Mosley Not Expected To Practice Wednesday

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) isn't expected to practice on Wednesday. It's not looking good for Mosley in Week 5 against the Eagles even after the team had a bye in Week 4 to rest up. Gang Green's prized offseason acquisition has played in just one game […]

Sam Darnold Cleared For Non-Contact Drills

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) has been cleared for non-contact drills this week, but he still has not lifted, ran or thrown a ball since contracting mononucleosis. Darnold still has a lot of hurdles to clear before he can play in Week 5 against the Eagles. At […]

Rashaad Penny Expected To Play This Week

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) "will be ready to go this week" against the Rams after missing the last two games with a hamstring strain. The Seahawks face the Rams this Thursday night, so it still remains to be seen if Penny will actually be active. Even […]

Davante Adams, Jamaal Williams Miss Practice Monday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) and running back Jamaal Williams (head, neck) both missed practice on Monday after being injured last Thursday night. Both Adams and Williams are questionable, at best, to suit up in Week 5 against the Cowboys. Making things even more difficult for fantasy owners is the fact that […]

Saquon Barkley Considered Week-To-Week

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) "is eager and champing at the bit to get back," but the coach still considers Barkley "week-to-week." Barkley is already out of his walking boot and thinks he'll return on the short end of his four- to eight-week timetable, but it remains […]

Mitch Trubisky Has Dislocated Shoulder, Labrum Tear

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky's (shoulder) initial MRI exam showed a dislocated left shoulder and slightly torn labrum, but he won't need surgery and should be back "sooner rather than later," according to a source. Trubisky will travel to London in Week 5 against the Raiders but is unlikely to play, especially with Chicago having […]

Vontaze Burfict Suspended For Rest Of 2019

Oakland Raiders linebacker Vontaze Burfict has been suspended without pay for the remainder of the 2019 season after another illegal hit on Colts tight end Jack Doyle in Week 4. Burfict continues to violate the league's rules on unnecessary roughness. He will appeal the suspension, but there's still a good chance that Burfict misses all […]

Kyle Allen Expected To Start In Week 5

Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera said that he expects quarterback Kyle Allen to start in Week 5 against the Jaguars. There is still no timetable for Cam Newton (foo) to return. In a good matchup with Houston's vulnerable secondary, Allen wasn't very impressive, going 24-for-34 (70.6 percent) with no touchdowns or interceptions. He also […]

Marcus Mariota Gets His Blind-Side Protector Back

Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan is returning from his four-game suspension this week. The three-time Pro Bowler will be a big boost to an offensive line that wasn't doing a very good job of protecting Mariota through the first four weeks of the season. Lewan and the Titans O-line will certainly have their hands […]

Patriots Getting Benjamin Watson Back

New England Patriots tight end Benjamin Watson is returning this week after his four-game suspension to begin the year. It's another weapon for quarterback Tom Brady to utilize heading into Week 5 against the Redskins. The 38-year-old Watson had 35 catches for 400 yards and two scores in a full season with the Saints in […]

Antonio Callaway Returning From Suspension

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway is returning from his four-game suspension this week. Callaway posted 43 receptions, 586 yards and five touchdowns in his rookie season and has upside in the Browns offense. With Jarvis Landry (concussion) suffering a head injury in Week 4, Callaway could immediately have a big role opposite Odell Beckham […]

Adam Thielen Upset With Direction Of Offense

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen spoke out on the team's offense after a 16-6 loss to the Bears in Week 4. The Vikings had just 59 total yards of offense in the first half and quarterback Kirk Cousins was 9-for-14 passing for 53 yards with two minutes left in the third quarter. "At some […]

Tyron Smith Has High Ankle Sprain

Dallas Cowboys six-time Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) suffered a high right ankle sprain on Sunday night against the Saints, according to owner Jerry Jones. Smith was in a walking boot when he left the locker room and will likely miss time. It could be a problem for quarterback Dak Prescott's protection in […]

Jaguars Plan To Keep Jalen Ramsey

The Jacksonville Jaguars rejected an offer of two first-round picks in exchange for cornerback Jalen Ramsey, according to a league source. Ramsey has made it public that he wants to be traded and has no desire to sign a contract extension, but the Jaguars are hesitant to deal the Pro Bowl defender. Ramsey missed practice […]

Colt McCoy An Option To Face Patriots

Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy (leg), who head coach Jay Gruden has familiarity with, is an option to start in Week 5 against the Patriots over both rookie Dwayne Haskins and Case Keenum. Keenum was benched early in the Week 4 loss to the Giants in favor of Haskins, who looked like a rookie (three […]

Mitch Trubisky, Roquan Smith In Question For Week 5

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) and linebacker Roquan Smith (personal) are in question for the Week 5 trip to London to face the Raiders. Smith was a late scratch in Week 4 due to a personal issue, and the team hasn't decided if he'll travel to London. Trubisky hurt his non-throwing shoulder six plays […]

A.J. Green Not Close To A Return

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) will not play on Monday night against the Steelers and is not expected to play at least the next two weeks against the Cardinals and Ravens, according to sources. That means that the earliest we'd see Green is in Week 7 against the Vikings. The veteran receiver should […]

Golden Tate Back From Four-Game Suspension

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate is back from his four-game suspension on Monday for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. Tate remained in shape by training in California with Chargers running back Melvin Gordon while being away from the team to begin the season. It's a big addition to New York's offense, […]
