LeSean McCoy Good To Go For Week 4

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy (ankle) re-injured his ankle in the Week 3 win, but he had a much better week of practice and is good to go for Week 4 against the Lions. There's always the risk that Shady aggravates the ankle again this weekend, but he will have RB2 upside with […]

Vance McDonald Doubtful For Monday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) missed practice all week and is doubtful for Week 4's Monday night game against the Bengals. Newly acquired tight end Nick Vannett will see a big role in his debut with the team, but he's a desperation low-end TE2 as mostly a blocker. Vannett took the vast majority […]

Geoff Swaim Questionable For Week 4

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Geoff Swaim (illness) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Broncos. In three games so far this year, Swaim has eight catches on 10 targets for just 39 yards, so he's not on the fantasy radar to begin with. Rookie Josh Oliver has already been ruled out, so James […]

Julian Edelman Expected To Play Sunday

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) is making the trip to Buffalo and is expected to play in Week 4 against the Bills. Edelman was limited in practice all week, but the question remains how effective he can be at less than 100 percent against a very strong defense on the road. Edelman's […]

Tyler Lockett Has Plenty Of Upside In Week 4

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is in a nice situation for Week 4 against an Arizona Cardinals team that is still missing cornerbacks Patrick Peterson (suspension) and Robert Alford (leg). Arizona is ranked 17th in fantasy points allowed per game (23.6) to the position and they did a decent job limiting Lockett in two […]

Olabisi Johnson Ready For Bigger Role

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Olabisi Johnson is expected to be the team's No. 3 receiver behind Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs after Chad Beebe (ankle) suffered torn ligaments in his ankle in Week 3. "I’ll be the slot receiver," Johnson said. "I’m going in whenever we go to three-receiver sets and things like that." […]

Jamaal Williams Released From Hospital

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (head, neck) was released from the hospital on Friday after being taken off the field on a stretcher on Thursday night following a scary hit on the first play of the game against the Eagles. "He's at home now and it sounds like he's doing well," head coach […]

Melvin Gordon Has Good Chance To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has a good chance to make his season debut in Week 4 against the Dolphins with Justin Jackson (calf) now out possibly for multiple weeks. The Chargers aren't ready to give Gordon the lead-back role -- that still belongs to Austin Ekeler for another week -- but he's […]

Cam Newton Won't Return Until He's 100 Percent

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (foot) confirmed that he's dealing with a mild Lisfranc injury and said he's doing everything in his power to come back. He could be out for a week or up to six weeks, and he wants to be 100 percent healthy when he returns. In other words, don't expect Newton […]

Rashaad Penny, Ziggy Ansah Expected To Play

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) and defensive end Ziggy Ansah (back), who are both questionable for Week 4 against the Cardinals, practiced in full on Friday and are expected to play this Sunday. Head coach Pete Carroll said they have "a good chance" to play. Penny could chip away at Chris Carson's workload […]

Justin Jackson Could Be Out A Few Weeks

Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (calf) is dealing with a calf strain that could keep him out a few weeks. Jackson was shaping up as a nice RB3/flex option this week against the lowly Dolphins, but he injured himself in practice on Thursday and has already been ruled out for this Sunday. He's […]

Matthew Stafford Expected To Play Against Chiefs

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (hip) is expected to play in Week 4 against the Chiefs despite being listed as questionable after popping up on the injury report on Friday. Sources are saying that they'd be shocked if Stafford didn't suit up. Typically a midrange QB for fantasy owners, Stafford has potential QB1 upside this […]

Damiere Byrd Ruled Out Against Seahawks

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Damiere Byrd (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Seahawks. He's third on the team in receiving yards (96) and has 12 catches through three games this year. As a result, rookies Keesean Johnson and Andy Isabella will see more opportunities behind Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk. Even […]

Rashaad Penny Listed As Questionable For Week 4

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Cardinals. Penny has a chance to take more of the workload from Chris Carson due to his fumbling issues, but it's still hard to endorse the second-year back as an RB3/flex in shallow leagues while he's injured. Even if […]

Terry McLaurin Expected To Play Sunday

Washington Redskins rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin (hamstring) is expected to play in Week 4 against the Giants, according to sources. His injury is described as a minor pull, and the team held him out of practice this week as a precaution. McLaurin is listed as questionable for this weekend, and he's shaping up to […]

Davante Adams' Injury Not Serious

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams' (toe) injury isn't believed to be serious after he underwent an MRI exam on Friday, according to sources. The Packers will be cautious with Adams, but if he misses any time, it won't be much. Adams was believed to be suffering from turf toe after the Thursday night […]

Julian Edelman, Rex Burkhead Questionable

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (chest) and running back Rex Burkhead (foot) are both listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Bills. Both players are trending in the right direction for the tough matchup with Buffalo's defense. Even on the road against the Bills, Edelman is a low-end WR2, at worst, if […]

Matthew Stafford Questionable For Week 4

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (hip) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chiefs. Ultimately we'd expect Stafford to play this weekend, but if he doesn't, it would be either rookie David Blough or Jeff Driskel starting under center. That would be a nightmare for anyone […]

T.Y. Hilton Doubtful To Face Raiders

Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) missed practice all week and is now listed as doubtful for Week 4 against the Raiders. Even if Hilton does manage to suit up, he's going to be super risky for fantasy owners and could be a decoy. Receivers Parris Campbell and Deon Cain […]

Vance McDonald Misses Practice Again

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) missed practice for the second straight day on Friday. McDonald is looking doubtful to play on Monday night against the Bengals. The good news is Pittsburgh doesn't think his injury is very serious. With the game being on Monday, we'd suggest going in another direction at the tight […]

Tre'Quan Smith Ruled Out Against Cowboys

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Cowboys. Smith also missed last week's game. With quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) out and Teddy Bridgewater now running the show, no receiver other than Michael Thomas should be trusted for fantasy lineups. Behind […]

Devin Singletary Questionable, Tyler Kroft Out

Buffalo Bills rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Friday and is questionable for Week 4 against the Patriots. Tight end Tyler Kroft (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out. Even if Singletary returns after missing Week 3, he'll likely be eased in […]

Case Keenum Will Play In Week 4

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum (foot) practiced in full for the second straight day on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 4 against the Giants. You can make a case that Keenum is an attractive QB2 this weekend against the terrible Giants Defense, even though Keenum turned the ball over […]

Albert Wilson Questionable, Allen Hurns Out

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf, hip) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Chargers, while receiver Allen Hurns (concussion) has been ruled out. Wilson was limited in practice all week and has a good shot to return since going down with an injury in the season opener. If he's active, he'll […]

Michael Gallup Likely A Few Weeks From Returning

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) still has swelling in his knee after undergoing an arthroscopic procedure, according to a source. He will not play in Week 4 against the Saints and isn't expected to return in Week 5 against the Packers either. Gallup is likely a couple weeks away from returning. The second-year […]

Delanie Walker Good To Go

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (knee) will be good to go for Week 4 against the Falcons, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Walker returned to practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report. The veteran tight end has been one of the most targeted tight ends in the NFL and […]

Calvin Ridley, Ito Smith Not On Final Injury Report

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hip) and running back Ito Smith (concussion) both practiced in full on Friday and were taken off the final injury report for Week 4 against the Titans. Ridley was a bust last week and was targeted just once, but he could easily bounce back at home against the Titans. […]

Melvin Gordon Could Play Sunday

Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that running back Melvin Gordon could play in Week 4 against the Dolphins in a limited role now that Justin Jackson (calf) has been ruled out with a calf strain. Gordon will travel with the team to Miami. The Chargers will also be […]

Travis Benjamin Doubtful To Face Dolphins

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (hip) is listed as doubtful to play in Week 4 against the Dolphins. It's disappointing for anyone who picked up Benjamin hoping that he'd be the No. 2 receiver with Mike Williams (back) hurting in an excellent matchup. But both Williams and Benjamin will be out, leaving Dontrelle […]

Mike Williams, Justin Jackson, Michael Badgley Out

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (back), running back Justin Jackson (calf), tight end Virgil Green (groin) and kicker Michael Badgley (groin) have all been ruled out for Week 4 against the Dolphins. With Williams out and Travis Benjamin (hip) doubtful to play, Keenan Allen, Dontrelle Inman and Geremy Davis will fill out three-receiver […]
