Steelers Optimistic About Vance McDonald

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said he's optimistic about tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) being available in Week 4 against the Bengals on Monday night. McDonald is dealing with an AC sprain and will be questionable, at best, for this week's game, making him very hard to trust in fantasy with the game being […]

T.Y. Hilton, Darius Leonard Won't Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) and All-Pro linebacker Darius Leonard (concussion) will not practice on Wednesday. Hilton may not practice much this week and could be a game-time decision Sunday morning after aggravating his quad and missing the entire second half in Week 3. Leonard is a must-start in IDP leagues when he's […]

Alshon Jeffery Will Play, DeSean Jackson Ruled Out

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) practiced in full the last two days and has been taken off the final injury report for Thursday night's game against the Packers. Wideout DeSean Jackson (abdomen) missed practice all week and has been ruled out. Jeffery missed Week 3 but will return in a tough matchup against […]

Jalen Ramsey Not A Lock To Play Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (back, illness) is not practicing on Wednesday, and it is far-fetched to think that he will play in Week 4 against the Broncos, according to sources. Ramsey and the Jags are currently engaged in a stare-down on a potential trade. The Jaguars Defense is a solid fantasy play this Sunday […]

Devin Singletary, Tyler Kraft Won't Practice Wednesday

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) and tight end Tyler Kroft (ankle) will not practice on Wednesday. Both players missed the Week 3 and will likely be questionable, at best, to face off against the Patriots in a tough matchup in Week 4. Veteran Frank Gore saw […]

Melvin Gordon's Holdout Could Be Ending Soon

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon's contract holdout could be coming to an end soon, although no final decisions have been made on when he will report, according to league sources. Gordon was planning to return at some point in October, but he could move his reporting date up. It's good news for those […]

Aaron Rodgers, Packers Offense Struggling

The Green Bay Packers offense under new head coach Matt LaFleur is ranked at No. 28 in total offense after three weeks. Rodgers has thrown for only 647 yards, the second lowest total of his career through three games of a season. His 57 completions rank as his lowest total to this point in a […]

Seahawks Signing Luke Willson

The Seattle Seahawks are signing free-agent tight end Luke Willson on Wednesday, according to a source informed of the situation. This comes after the Seahawks traded Nick Vannett to the Steelers on Tuesday. Willson, a fifth-round pick in 2013, spent five years in Seattle, catching 89 passes for 1,129 yards and 11 touchdowns. He caught […]

Jalen Ramsey To Rejoin Jaguars Defense Wednesday

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (illness) is expected to be at the team's facility on Wednesday, according to sources informed of the situation. The All-Pro missed Monday's practice with an illness and the team was off on Tuesday. Ramsey has also been receiving treatment for issues related to his lower back and hamstrings, so it's […]

Dee Ford May Need Surgery After Season

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Dee Ford (knee) might need offseason surgery on his left knee, but he plans to play through it like he did in 2018 when he had a career-high 13 sacks for the Chiefs. Ford played through knee tendinitis, a quadriceps injury and a torn groin last season. He's been questionable […]

Jeffery Wilson Could Be Odd Man Out Soon

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeffery Wilson could be the odd man out of the backfield when Tevin Coleman (ankle) returns from his high ankle sprain. San Francisco is going with a three-man committee since Coleman went down in Week 1, with Matt Breida, Raheem Mostert and Wilson all chipping in. Wilson has carried the […]

Vance McDonald Battling Shoulder Sprain

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) is dealing with a shoulder sprain, but he's not expected to have an extended absence. The Steelers traded for tight end Nick Vannett on Tuesday, however, so it's looking like McDonald is a good candidate to miss at least a game or two in the short term. It's […]

Steelers To Acquire Nick Vannett

The Pittsburgh Steelers are finalizing a trade to acquire tight end Nick Vannett from the Seahawks on Tuesday, according to a league source. The acquisition of Vannett likely means that Vance McDonald (shoulder) will miss at least Week 4 against the Bengals on Monday night. Vannett was playing second fiddle to Will Dissly in Seattle […]

Redskins Expect Jordan Reed To Play This Year

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that he expects tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) to play again at some point this year. He won't play in Week 4 against the Giants and his return is likely weeks away, at best. Reed hasn't played since being diagnosed with a concussion in the third preseason game […]

Jimmy Graham Limited Tuesday

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (groin, quadriceps) got in a limited practice on Tuesday after sitting out on Monday. Graham is dealing with some nagging injuries, but he should be active Thursday night against the Eagles. The 32-year-old veteran doesn't appear to have much left in the tank in his career, and he […]

Saquon Barkley Seeking Second Opinion

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) is seeking a second opinion on his high ankle sprain with Dr. Robert Anderson on Wednesday, according to a source informed of the situation. Barkley is expected to be out four to six weeks after suffering the injury in the Week 3 win over the Buccaneers. Losing […]

Alshon Jeffery, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Practice In Full

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (calf) and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (heel) both practiced in full on Tuesday. Jeffery missed Week 3 but is right on track to return to face the Packers on Thursday. He'll be the top target with DeSean Jackson (groin) expected to miss another game, but Jeffery should be seen as more […]

Vance McDonald In Sling Tuesday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) is wearing a sling on Tuesday at the team's facility. It doesn't mean he won't play in Week 4 against the Bengals, but it's not a good sign for his availability early in the week. A week after scoring two touchdowns on seven catches, McDonald caught only one […]

T.Y. Hilton Unsure If He'll Play In Week 4

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) isn't ready to say if he'll be able to play in Week 4 against the Raiders. "If I can play, I'll play," Hilton said. The team's No. 1 wideout missed all of the second half in Week 3 after aggravating his quadriceps injury. He's shaping up to be […]

Todd Gurley Not On Load-Management Program

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Todd Gurley isn't on a load-management program. "We're not doing anything like that," McVay said. "It's more along the lines of each week presents a different approach. It's kind of the feel the flow of the game," McVay said. Gurley had 14 carries for […]

Alshon Jeffery, Dallas Goedert Expected To Play Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) and tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) are both expected to play on Thursday against the Packers. DeSean Jackson (groin) is expected to miss his second straight game, and rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (heel) is also banged up. Jeffery should be back in the […]

Virgil Green Has Good Shot To Face Miami

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Virgil Green's (groin) injury isn't considered serious, according to a source, and he should have a good shot to play in Week 4 against the Dolphins. Green has two catches on three targets for 13 yards in two games this year. The 31-year-old is more of a blocker than a […]

Vikings Re-Sign Laquon Treadwell

The Minnesota Vikings are re-signing wide receiver Laquon Treadwell on Tuesday, according to sources. Chad Beebe (ankle) has torn ligaments in his ankle, so Treadwell will provide depth in the short term behind Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs and rookie Olabisi Johnson. Treadwell has familiarity with the Vikings, but he's still a long shot to return […]

Chad Beebe Has Torn Ligaments In Ankle

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Chad Beebe (ankle) has torn ligaments in his ankle but won't have surgery, according to a league source. The Vikings will re-evaluate him in a week. Needless to say, Beebe won't be back anytime soon, and surgery is not off the table yet. The 25-year-old has not been fantasy relevant in […]

Cam Newton Dealing With Lisfranc Injury

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) is out indefinitely with a Lisfranc injury, according to sources. The good news is that Newton isn't expected to need surgery for now, but it's an injury that will require at least multiple weeks to heal. At this point, it's unlikely that Newton would return before the team's Week […]

49ers Defense Loses Ahkello Witherspoon For A Month

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon (foot) is expected to miss at least a month with a foot sprain, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Emmanuel Moseley will be first in line to replace Witherspoon, but a competition with Jason Verrett and others will take place. San Francisco's secondary will need to step up. Luckily […]

Jalen Hurd Could Return To Practice Next Week

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Jalen Hurd (back) is trying to recover from a hairline fracture in his back, but he could return to practice next Monday, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Hurd has yet to make his NFL debut, but he'll have a shot to do so after the team's Week 4 […]

Travis Benjamin, Virgil Green Dealing With Injuries

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that wide receiver Travis Benjamin (quadriceps) is dealing with an injury that will put his availability for Week 4 against the Dolphins in question. Tight end Virgil Green (groin) is day-to-day after injuring himself in the Week 3 loss to the Texans. Benjamin caught two of five […]

Seahawks Believe In Chris Carson

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said the team still has faith in running back Chris Carson, who has lost three fumbles in three games. "Because we do believe in him, we're going to continue to show him that," Carroll said. Carson might've lost work in Week 3 against the Saints if it weren't for […]

DeSean Jackson Misses Practice Monday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (groin) was listed as a non-participant on the team's estimated Monday practice report. Jackson sat out in Week 3 and is pretty much doubtful to suit up on Thursday night against the Packers. You need to be making other plans if he's on your roster. Nelson Agholor has been […]
