Wayne Gallman On Week 5 Injury Report

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman (neck) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Head coach Pat Shurmur said it's "game soreness" and isn't worried about Gallman's status as the lead back for Week 5 against the Vikings. Gallman did his best Saquon Barkley impersonation last week by scoring a rushing and […]

Josh Jacobs, J.J. Nelson Limited Wednesday

Oakland Raiders rookie running back Josh Jacobs (elbow) and wide receiver J.J. Nelson (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Jacobs should play in London in Week 5 against the Bears, but Chicago's defensive front is tough on opposing runners, making the rookie a low-end RB2/high-end RB3 in this matchup. Nelson was inactive in […]

T.Y. Hilton Out Wednesday, Darius Leonard To Be Limited

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) will not practice on Wednesday. Linebacker Darius Leonard (concussion), who has missed the last two games, will practice on a limited basis. Hilton sat out in Week 4 and with the team's bye coming in Week 6, it's possible the Colts give […]

Indians To Pick Up Corey Kluber's Option, Decline Jason Kipnis'

Cleveland Indians general manager Chris Antonetti said that the team plans to pick up starting pitcher Corey Kluber's (arm) 2020 option, but they will decline the options on second baseman Jason Kipnis and relief pitcher Dan Otero. Kluber fractured his arm in May of 2019 and didn't pitch the rest of the way, finishing with […]

Gardner Minshew Lands On Injury Report

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew (knee) will be limited in practice on Wednesday, and head coach Doug Marrone said the team is being careful with Minshew's knee. The Jaguars are just being cautious here with the rookie, so we'd fully expect him to suit up in Week 5 against the Panthers. Minshew hasn't made many […]

No Timetable For Tyler Kroft

Buffalo Bills tight end Tyler Kroft (ankle) is progressing but has no timetable for a return, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Kroft was close to returning in Week 3 but suffered an ankle injury in practice. He has yet to make his season debut and is well off the fantasy radar right now. Rookie […]

Devin Singletary Will Be Limited Wednesday

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) will be limited in practice on Wednesday. Singletary was limited in practice last Thursday and Friday but ultimately missed his second straight game.

Michael Gallup Expected To Return To Practice

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) is expected to resume practice in a limited fashion on Wednesday, according to head coach Jason Garrett. It will be Gallup's first practice in two weeks. It's good news, but Gallup isn't a guarantee to suit up against the Packers in Week 5 just yet. Even if he […]

Sam Darnold Will Practice Wednesday

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) will practice on Wednesday and "see how it goes," according to head coach Adam Gase. The Jets are taking it day-to-day with Darnold, and he still hasn't been cleared for contact. It's not a lock that he returns in Week 5 to face the porous and injured Eagles […]

Josh Allen Remains In Concussion Protocol

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (head) remains in the league's concussion protocol and will do some individual work at practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Allen must be cleared from the protocol to have a chance at playing in a tough matchup this Sunday against the Titans on the road. He's shaping […]

DeSean Jackson Won't Practice Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen) will not practice on Wednesday. D-Jax is probably on the wrong side of questionable as of now for Week 5 against the Jets, so you should plan on being without him for another week. If he misses another game, it'll be Alshon […]

Tyrell Williams Not Practicing, Questionable For Week 5

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Tyrell Williams (foot) is not practicing on Wednesday and is questionable for Week 5 in London against the Bears. Williams is the only player in the NFL to have a receiving touchdown in all four weeks of the season, but he has been trending down in recent weeks. With a tough […]

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Patrick Corbin will start Game 1 of the National League Division Series on Thursday against the Dodgers, according to manager Dave Martinez.

Franklin Barreto Will Make Wild-Card Roster

Oakland Athletics second baseman Franklin Barreto will make the wild-card roster for Wednesday's game against the Rays, according to a source. Barreto will be an option off the bench as a pinch-runner like he was in last year's wild-card game. The 23-year-old Venezuelan had just 57 at-bats with the A's this year and hit .138/.263/.401 with […]

Christian Yelich Not Ruling Out Postseason Return

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (knee) said he won't rule out a potential return if the Brewers reach the World Series.

It's a long shot […]

Lorenzo Cain In Lineup Tuesday Against Nationals

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain (ankle) is starting in center field and batting seventh on Tuesday against Nationals ace Max Scherzer in the National League wild-card game. Cain sprained his ankle over the weekend but is good enough to start the one-game playoff. The 33-year-old was a disappointment this year, hitting .260/.325/.372 with 11 home […]

Stephen Piscotty Left Off Roster For Wild-Card Game

Oakland Athletics outfielder Stephen Piscotty didn't make the roster for the American League wild-card game on Wednesday against the Rays. Piscotty had just returned from the disabled list over late last week and the A's don't feel comfortable trotting him out there with everything on the line in a one-game playoff. The 28-year-old was a […]

Kurt Suzuki Playing Against Brewers Tuesday

Washington Nationals catcher Kurt Suzuki (elbow) is behind the plate and batting seventh against Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff in the National League wild-card game on Tuesday.

Nationals Offer Anthony Rendon $210 Million Extension

The Washington Nationals offered third baseman Anthony Rendon a seven-year deal worth between $210 million and $215 million in early September, according to The Washington Post's Barry Svrluga. The offer shouldn't keep Rendon from exploring the free-agent market after the postseason, especially since he'll be the top available position player. The superstar third baseman is […]

Chris Herndon IV (TE, NYJ) - Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stash in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The team's fourth-round pick in 2018, Chris Herndon IV must sit out one more game before he can return from his four-game suspension for violating the league's substance-abuse policy.
