James Conner's Injury Isn't Serious

Multiple teammates believe that Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner's (knee) injury is not serious, but Jaylen Samuels is prepared to start in Week 3 against the 49ers on the road if necessary. Conner walked through the locker room following the Week 2 loss to the Seahawks and appeared to be moving fine. Keep a […]

Giants Decline To Name Eli Manning The Week 3 Starter

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur declined to name quarterback Eli Manning the starter for Week 3 against the Buccaneers. Manning went 26-for-45 (57.8 percent) for 250 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the Week 2 loss against a tough Bills Defense. To be fair, Manning was without Sterling Shepard (concussion) and lost […]

Tim Jernigan Out 4-6 Weeks For Eagles Defense

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Tim Jernigan (foot) suffered a broken foot in the Week 2 loss to the Falcons and is expected to miss four to six weeks. The good news is that Jernigan won't need surgery, so he should be back later this season. Philly has good depth up front on the defensive line, […]

Ben Roethlisberger's Season Is Over

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) is out for the season with a right elbow injury that he suffered in the Week 2 loss to the Seahawks. It's not exactly known what's wrong with Big Ben's elbow, but it looks like he'll be undergoing season-ending surgery to fix it. He went 8-for-15 for 75 yards […]

Tyler Higbee Sent To Hospital For Lung Injury

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (lung) was sent to the hospital as a precaution on Sunday after suffering a chest injury in the Week 2 win over the Saints, according to sources. His injury turned out to be to his lung and it caused him to cough up blood. Higbee could miss some […]

LeSean McCoy Undergoing MRI Monday

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy (ankle) suffered an ankle injury late in the Week 2 win over the Raiders and is undergoing an MRI exam on Monday, according to a source. The injury doesn't appear to be serious, but we'll know more after the tests. It's especially significant for the Chiefs backfield after […]

Adrian Phillips Out Indefinitely For Chargers Defense

Los Angeles Chargers safety Adrian Phillips (forearm) suffered a broken forearm in the Week 2 loss to the Lions and is expected to be sidelined indefinitely, according to a league source. Phillips was replacing All-Pro safety Derwin James in the Bolts secondary, so this latest injury is just another blow to the Chargers Defense early […]

Corey Clement Added To List Of Eagles Wounded

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement (shoulder) left the Week 2 game on Sunday night against the Falcons with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return. Clement is Philly's main kick returner, and he was injured early in the third quarter on a kickoff in which he fumbled to give the ball right back […]

Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson Both Hurt Sunday Night

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (groin) were both injured on Sunday night in Week 2 against the Falcons and are questionable to return. Tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) also left and is questionable to return. It has predictably affected quarterback Carson Wentz's performance, as he's just 4-for-9 for 37 yards […]

Drew Brees To See Hand Specialist

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (hand) will be examined by a hand specialist in Los Angeles on Sunday night after leaving the Week 2 game early in the first quarter against the Rams. Brees' right thumb collided with defensive tackle Aaron Donald's hand, and the future Hall of Fame quarterback couldn't even grip a […]

Dallas Goedert Questionable To Return Sunday Night

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) is listed as questionable to return in Week 2 on Sunday night against the Falcons due to a calf injury. Goedert wasn't targeted before leaving the game. As long as Zach Ertz is healthy, Goedert is nothing more than a low-end, touchdown-dependent TE2 in this offense. If he […]

Damien Williams Injures Knee Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (knee) injured his knee in Week 2 against the Raiders and is questionable to return. Williams turned in a dud before his injury with the Chiefs leading 28-10, rushing only nine times for eight yards (0.9 yards per tote) while catching three of his five targets in the […]

David Johnson Feels Good To Go

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (wrist) said his left wrist is "good" and he feels "good to go" after the Week 2 loss to the Ravens. Johnson said it was a "big relief" not to have suffered a serious injury. The team's lead ball carrier had just seven rushes for 14 yards (2.0 yards […]

Tyler Higbee Injured Sunday

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (chest) has been ruled out for the rest of the Week 2 game against the Saints with a chest injury. Higbee caught two of his three targets for 21 yards before leaving. Even in this high-ceiling offense, Higbee remains more of a touchdown-dependent, low-end TE2 when he's healthy. […]

Joe Staley Suffers Fractured Fibula

San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley (leg) suffered a fractured left fibula in the Week 2 win over the Bengals when running back Raheem Mostert ran into Staley's leg from behind. The offensive lineman said he's expected to be out six to eight weeks. It's a big and notable loss to San Francisco's offensive […]

Drew Brees Injures Right Hand Against Rams

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) injured his right hand in Week 2 against the Rams and is on the sidelines. Brees has his right thumb wrapped and hasn't even attempted to throw a football while backup Teddy Bridgewater is in the game against Los Angeles. It's a worst-case scenario for Brees owners, especially […]

Devin Singletary Injures Hamstring Sunday

Buffalo Bills rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury late in the Week 2 game against the Giants and has been ruled out for the game. The rookie ran six times for 57 and a touchdown (9.5 yards per carry) but wasn't targeted at all in the passing game before his injury. […]

Joe Staley Carted Off With Leg Injury

San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley (leg) suffered a potentially serious leg injury in Week 2 against the Bengals and was carted off the field. This has the looks of an injury that could be a season-ender for Staley. It'd be a big loss to San Fran's offensive line and a downgrade moving forward […]

Cody Latimer Suffers Concussion, Ruled Out

New York Giants wide receiver Cody Latimer (concussion) suffered a concussion in Week 2 against the Bills and was ruled out for the rest of the game. The Giants remaining receivers are Bennie Fowler, Russell Shepard, Cody Core and T.J. Jones with Sterling Shepard (concussion) inactive for the game. That's just plain bad. Latimer caught […]

James Conner Injured Against Seahawks

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (knee) injured his knee in Week 2 against the Steelers and is questionable to return. Conner had 11 carries for 33 yards and a touchdown and also caught three passes for 12 yards before leaving. If his injury puts him in danger of missing any time, Jaylen Samuels will […]

Trey Burton Making Season Debut Against Broncos

Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) is active in Week 2 against the Broncos after sitting out the season opener last week. In an offense that didn't look very impressive in Week 1, Burton shouldn't be in many starting fantasy lineups Sunday on the road against a respectable defense, although Denver did allow a […]

Ben Roethlisberger Injures Right Elbow

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) injured his right elbow in Week 2 against the Seahawks and isn't starting the second half. Mason Rudolph is under center to start the second half. Big Ben is questionable to return. He had a very quiet first half against Seattle, going 8-for-15 for only 75 yards with no […]

Patrick Mahomes Will Have Eric Fisher Protecting Him

Kansas City Chiefs left tackle Eric Fisher (groin) is active in Week 2 against the Raiders on the road. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes would've been the top fantasy option at QB regardless of whether Fisher was active or not, but this just helps his outlook against a Raiders secondary that lost rookie safety Jonathan Abram (shoulder) […]

David Johnson Returns After Injury

Updating a previous report, Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (wrist) returned to the Week 2 game against the Ravens after injuring his wrist in the first quarter. Johnson's owners can let out a sigh of relief now. It'll be tough for him not to turn out being a bust this week, though, as he […]

Vernon Davis Questionable To Return Against Cowboys

Washington Redskins tight end Vernon Davis (eye) was injured in Week 2 against the Cowboys and is questionable to return. Davis wasn't targeted at all in the passing game before going down. With Jordan Reed (concussion) inactive for the second straight week, Jeremy Sprinkle would be the only tight end left active for the 'Skins […]

David Johnson Injured Sunday

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (wrist) suffered a wrist injury in the first quarter of Week 2 against the Ravens and is questionable to return. Johnson ran three times for seven yards and caught one pass for no gain before getting injured. A first-round pick in fantasy leagues, losing Johnson would be devastating for […]

Tom Brady's Left Tackle Injured Against Miami

New England Patriots left tackle Isaiah Wynn (foot) was injured in Week 2 against the Dolphins and is questionable to return. Right tackle Marcus Cannon is inactive on Sunday with an injury of his own, so injuries are already wreaking havoc on the team's offensive line early in the year. It remains to be seen […]

Kenyan Drake On The Trade Block?

While there are reports spreading that the Miami Dolphins have had trade talks with other teams surrounding running back Kenyan Drake this week, the Miami Herald's Armando Salguero is reporting that the team has had zero conversations with other teams about trading him, according to a club source. It wouldn't be a surprise if the […]

Sam Darnold Hoping To Return In Week 5

Updating a previous report, New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) said he's feeling much better and hopes doctors let him rejoin the team this week. He was told to take 21 days to recover from mononucleosis and is hoping to come back after the team's Week 4 bye. Darnold said he hasn't lost much […]

Amari Cooper Not In A Rush To Sign Extension

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is being extra patient in contract-extension talks and is the only Dallas player less likely to re-sign this season, according to league sources. With Saints wideout Michael Thomas landing a deal that pays him $20 million a year and Falcons receiver Julio Jones earning $22 million per year, Cooper […]
