Rams Expect Todd Gurley To Play In Week 16
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said "the expectation" is that running back Todd Gurley (knee) will play in Week 16 against the Cardinals. Gurley felt better on Wednesday and is day-to-day with knee inflammation. While his knee injury isn't serious, Gurley carries a little more risk in fantasy championships due to the fact […]

Colt McCoy Hopes To Play In Season Finale
Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy (leg) is still hoping to play in the Week 17 season finale against the Eagles despite suffering a broken fibula 27 days ago, according to a source. With Washington's season basically over, it makes no sense for the Redskins to throw McCoy out there too soon. We'd be pretty surprised […]

Yu Darvish Resumes Throwing
Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Yu Darvish (elbow) has resumed light throwing on flat ground after having a minor right elbow procedure that ended his 2018 season in September. The Japanese right-hander's first season in Chicago was a disaster, as he went just 1-3 with a 4.95 ERA over just 40 innings before going on the […]

Trent Sherfield, Chad Williams Limited
Arizona Cardinals wide receivers Trent Sherfield (ankle) and Chad Williams (hamstring) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Sherfield has basically become the No. 2 wideout behind Larry Fitzgerald with Christian Kirk done for the year. Sherfield has 12 targets, 92 yards and a touchdown the last two games, but he's merely a WR4/flex option […]

Rashaad Penny's Status Uncertain
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said it's uncertain if rookie running back Rashaad Penny (knee) will return in Week 16 against the Chiefs. The team is hoping he can return to practice on Friday. Penny missed his first career game in Week 15 and doesn't look to be on track to play this weekend. […]

Kenny Golladay, Bruce Ellington Limited
Detroit Lions wide receivers Kenny Golladay (chest) and Bruce Ellington (hamstring) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) also continues to be limited in practice. Golladay had one of his best games last week with seven catches for 146 yards in a loss. He'll face a stiffer test against Minnesota in […]

Alshon Jeffery Out Sick Wednesday
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (illness) is out of practice on Wednesday with an illness. Jeffery should be able to play this weekend against the Texans. He had one of his better games (eight catches, 160 yards) with quarterback Nick Foles on Sunday night and was one of Foles' favorite targets at the end […]

LeSean McCoy, Chris Ivory Limited In Practice
Buffalo Bills running backs LeSean McCoy (hamstring) and Chris Ivory (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Wednesday after sitting out in Week 15. Both backs have a chance to return in Week 16 against the Patriots, which is good news after backup Marcus Mariota dislocated his elbow last week. McCoy or Ivory are no […]

Zach Ertz On Injury Report
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Ertz picked the worst time of the year to go quiet for fantasy owners, catching eight passes for just 60 scoreless yards the last two weeks. He was targeted 15 times in that span, though, and quarterback Nick Foles looked his way […]

No Practice For Quincy Enunwa
New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) is not practicing on Wednesday. Enunwa hasn't played since Dec. 9 and is well off the fantasy radar at this point. Robby Anderson has become the favorite target of rookie quarterback Sam Darnold of late and has WR4/flex appeal against the Packers in Week 16 if Enunwa […]

Joe Mixon, John Ross Limited Wednesday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (wrist) and wide receiver John Ross (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Both players should be able to play in Week 16 against the Bengals. With A.J. Green already on Injured Reserve and Tyler Boyd expected to miss the last two games, Mixon will have an even […]

Tyler Boyd Not Practicing Wednesday
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd (knee) was not present at practice on Wednesday. Boyd is believed to be dealing with a sprained knee, which would likely keep him out the rest of the season. If that's the end of his season, it was a good one, as he has 76 catches for 1,028 yards […]

James Conner Says He's Not Ready
Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (ankle) isn't ruling himself out for Week 16 against the Saints, but he says he's just not there yet physically. Conner has missed two straight games with a high ankle sprain and seems unlikely to play this weekend in a big game against New Orleans. Rookie Jaylen Samuels would […]

Austin Ekeler Still Not Practicing
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (concussion, neck) remains sidelined at practice on Wednesday. Ekeler has yet to be cleared from the concussion protocol and did not suit up last Thursday against the Chiefs. He's also dealing with a stinger suffered in Week 14. As of now, Ekeler's status for Saturday against the Ravens […]

Keenan Allen Back At Practice
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hip) returned to practice on Wednesday after sitting out on Tuesday. Allen still isn't a sure thing to play on Saturday against the Ravens, but his return to practice is a good sign. Allen suffered a hip pointer last Thursday but should play in this important AFC clash. […]

Aaron Rodgers Say He'll Play Against Jets
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (groin) said he will play in Week 16 against the Jets. There was some speculation that the Packers might sit Rodgers in a meaningless game after he was injured in Week 15, but that won't be the case. That's great news for anyone that owns wide receiver Davante Adams, […]

Jordan Reed Absent From Practice
Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (toe) is missing practice for the second straight day on Wednesday. Reed missed the game last week and seems primed to finish the 2018 season on the sidelines given his extensive injury history, especially with his feet. Reed never got on the same page with quarterback Alex Smith this […]

Sammy Watkins Still Not Practicing
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) remains out of practice on Wednesday. Watkins hasn't played since the Week 11 game against the Rams and he's expected to be out until the postseason. Fantasy owners will not be able to count on him for the rest of the season. Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce […]

Randall Cobb Not Practicing Wednesday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (concussion) is not practicing on Wednesday. Cobb has yet to clear the concussion protocol and is in danger of missing Week 16 against the Jets. He really hasn't done much for fantasy owners since the season opener and is more of a WR5 to close out the year. […]

Aaron Rodgers Practicing Wednesday
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (groin) was practicing on Wednesday. Rodgers injured his groin last Sunday, and there has been speculation that the Packers might sit him out in a meaningless game in Week 16 against the Jets. The fact that Rodgers is practicing is a good sign for his availability this weekend, however. […]

Julio Jones A Question Mark For Week 16
Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that he will not know if wide receiver Julio Jones (hip) will be ready to go in Week 16 against the Panthers until Friday.

The Houston Astros officially signed free-agent outfielder Michael Brantley to a two-year, $32 million deal on Wednesday.

Kerryon Johnson Going On IR
The Detroit Lions are placing rookie running back Kerryon Johnson (knee) on Injured Reserve, according to a source. He is expected to make a full recovery this offseason. It's not a surprise, as Johnson hadn't been practicing and hadn't played since being injured in Week 11. The second-round pick had a productive rookie year, finishing […]

Giants Not Planning To Put Odell Beckham Jr. On IR
New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that he isn't considering putting wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) on Injured Reserve with the team out of playoff contention.

Philly Special - Can Eagles Help You Win a Championship?
Everyone knows how it went down for the Philadelphia Eagles in their improbable run to a Super Bowl victory over the New England Patriots last year. It all started when franchise quarterback Carson Wentz tore his ACL in Week 14 on the road against the Rams. Nick Foles entered the game and led them to a […]

Matt Harvey Agrees With Angels
Free-agent starting pitcher Matt Harvey agreed to an undisclosed deal with the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday, according to a source.

Keenan Allen Could Be Game-Time Decision
Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that wide receiver Keenan Allen (hip) could be a game-time decision on Saturday night against the Ravens. Allen suffered a hip pointer last Thursday and didn't practice on Tuesday, so his status is truly up in the air. His owners would feel a lot more comfortable about […]
