Roberts had a stretch of three touchdowns in two games earlier this year as a red-zone weapon for quarterback […]

Ezekiel Ansah Placed On IR

The Detroit Lions placed defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Tuesday. He will need surgery to fix his labrum, according to a source. The franchise-tagged player should be ready for training camp next summer. Ansah has a ton of talent, but injuries continue to derail his career, as he's played in […]

No Practice For Courtland Sutton

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Courtland Sutton (thigh) did not practice on Tuesday. Sutton flopped in his first game as the true lead receiver with Emmanuel Sanders (Achilles) out for the year, catching just two of six targets for 14 yards against the 49ers. Sutton should be able to play on Saturday against the Browns, […]

Isaiah Crowell Wearing Walking Boot

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) is wearing a walking boot on his left foot, and he said that "the pain was excruciating" on Sunday after he was injured against the Bills. Crowell didn't practice on Tuesday and is looking unlikely to face the Texans on Saturday in Week 15. Elijah McGuire could […]

White Sox Looking At Yasmani Grandal

The Chicago White Sox are looking at free-agent catcher Yasmani Grandal as a catching upgrade for 2019. Grandal's stock is down after a terrible postseason for the Dodgers in which he struggled both offensively and defensively. However, he managed to slug 24 home runs and drive in 68 runs this year and is one of […]

Red Sox Listening On Rick Porcello

The Boston Red Sox are openly listening to trade offers for starting pitcher Rick Porcello as they try to clear salary space for bullpen help. Rivals also insist that Boston is willing to talk about shortstop Xander Bogaerts and outfielder Jackie Bradley. Porcello isn't the sexiest fantasy starter, but he put up 17 wins in […]

All Three Jets Running Backs Miss Practice

New York Jets running backs Isaiah Crowell (toe), Elijah McGuire (ankle) and rookie Trenton Cannon (toe) missed practice on Tuesday. That's not good news with the team playing this Saturday in a tough matchup against the Texans. Crowell had just two carries last week and could be in danger of sitting out in Week 15, […]

Melvin Gordon Hopes To Be Game-Time Call

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (knee) said he is feeling much better and will push to be a game-time decision for Thursday's big divisional matchup with the Chiefs. Gordon didn't practice Monday and has missed the last two games with a sprained knee. There's even more urgency for him to return with Austin […]

Pirates Agree With Jordan Lyles

The Pittsburgh Pirates agreed to a deal with free-agent starting pitcher Jordan Lyles on Tuesday. Lyles was decent with the Padres and Brewers last year, sporting a 4.11 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 8.6 K/9, but he only made eight starts (all with Padres) before being used in relief by Milwaukee. He should be guaranteed a […]

Blue Jays Release Troy Tulowitzki

The Toronto Blue Jays released shortstop Troy Tulowitzki on Tuesday. The oft-injured former Rockies star is still guaranteed $38 million on his contract, so the Blue Jays are biting the bullet on this one. Tulo wasn't guaranteed a starting role in 2019, even if he proved healthy. Lourdes Gurriel is expected to be the starting […]

Phillies Agree With Andrew McCutchen

The Philadelphia Phillies agreed to a deal with free-agent outfielder Andrew McCutchen on Tuesday, according to sources. Well that was fast. The National League MVP for the Pirates in 2013 hit .255/.368/.424 with 20 home runs, 65 RBI, 83 runs scored and 14 stolen bases in 155 games for the Giants and Yankees in 2018. […]

Phillies Showing Significant Interest In Andrew McCutchen

The Philadelphia Phillies are showing significant interest in free-agent outfielder Andrew McCutchen, according to sources. The Phillies are interested in making upgrades to their outfield, and McCutchen could be added to the mix that includes Roman Quinn, Odubel Herrera, Nick Williams and Aaron Altherr. McCutchen's best seasons are behind him. He's 32 years old and […]

Brewers Meet With Wilson Ramos

The Milwaukee Brewers had a "very good" meeting on Monday with free-agent catcher Wilson Ramos, who is on hand at the winter meetings this week. The 31-year-old was an All-Star last year with the Rays and Phillies and would be an upgrade over catchers Manny Pina, Erik Kratz and Jacob Nottingham. However, Ramos has been […]

Reds Showing Interest In Wade Miley

The Cincinnati Reds are showing interest in free-agent starting pitcher Wade Miley, according to a source. Miley worked with current Reds pitching coach Derek Johnson during his breakout season in 2018 in Milwaukee. Miley got off to a late start due to injury, but he surprised us all when he returned, posting a great 2.57 […]

Astros Interested In Michael Brantley

The Houston Astros are interested in free-agent outfielder Michael Brantley, according to sources. The team wants to add a left-handed bat, but they are wary of blocking outfield prospect Kyle Tucker in the long term. Tucker doesn't have much left to prove down on the farm, but Brantley will surely land a multi-year deal in […]

Isaiah Crowell Sitting Out Tuesday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) missed practice on Tuesday. While Crowell typically plays through injuries, his fantasy owners should really be worried with the team's Week 15 game on Saturday this week and because of the fact that Crowell had only three touches in the Week 14 win over the Bills. Expect […]

Phillies In On Dallas Keuchel, Zach Britton

The Philadelphia Phillies are in on free-agent starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel and reliever Zach Britton, and they are also still trying to lure in either Manny Machado or Bryce Harper. Keuchel is a ground-ball artist who could thrive despite the hitting-friendly environment in Philly, although this wouldn't be the most attractive landing spot for the […]

Spencer Ware Won't Practice Tuesday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring, shoulder) will not practice for the second straight day on Tuesday. Ware was beat up in Week 14 against the Ravens but finished the game and is expected to be available for Thursday's big game against the Chargers. His fantasy owners would be much more comfortable if […]

Tyreek Hill Returning To Practice

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel, wrist) will return to practice on Tuesday after sitting out on Monday. It's great news for Hill, who was noticeably limping in the team's Week 14 overtime win over the Ravens. Barring a setback, Hill should be a no-doubt must-start WR1 on Thursday against the Chargers. Hill […]

James Conner Could Return In Week 15

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (ankle) had a productive week of rehab and head coach Mike Tomlin is leaving the door open for his potential return in Week 15 against the Patriots. However, a lot would have to go right for Conner to play this weekend. That means that you shouldn't plan on having […]

Marlins Discussing Carlos Santana

The Miami Marlins are looking for mid-tier free-agent hitters and relievers and have discussed a trade for Seattle Mariners first baseman Carlos Santana last week, according to sources. Santana was just recently acquired from the Phillies, but the M's are willing to flip him and his salary as they continue to sell off pieces for […]

White Sox Acquire Ivan Nova

The Chicago White Sox are acquiring starting pitcher Ivan Nova from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday, according to sources. It's unclear what the White Sox are sending to Pittsburgh. Nova will bring a veteran presence to a young and rebuilding Chicago team. The right-hander will turn 32 next month and went 9-9 with a 4.19 […]

Cardinals Pursuing Will Smith

The St. Louis Cardinals have been among the most aggressive suitors in a potential trade for San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Will Smith, according to a source.

Keke Coutee Trending In Right Direction

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said that rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) is "trending toward being able to play" in Week 15 against the Jets. Coutee has missed the last two games and has been hamstrung by his injury most of the year, playing in just six games. He has upside in the […]

Nationals May Trade Tanner Roark

The Washington Nationals have engaged in trade talks with other teams involving starting pitcher Tanner Roark, who is a year away from free agency and who could make more than $10 million through salary arbitration, according to sources. After the team signed lefty Patrick Corbin, Roark is a bit dispensable now. The right-hander hasn't been […]

Yankees May Be Willing To Trade Miguel Andujar

The New York Yankees are open to moving third baseman Miguel Andujar, according to rival executives. This could be part of the rumored three-team trade involving the New York Mets and Miami Marlins that would also send catcher J.T. Realmuto to the Mets. If the Yanks get rid of Andujar, it'd make them more active […]

Vikings Fire John DeFilippo After Offensive Failure Monday

The Minnesota Vikings fired offensive coordinator John DeFilippo on Tuesday after the offense failed to do much of anything in a 21-7 loss on the road to the Seahawks on Monday, according to a source. Quarterbacks coach Kevin Stefanski will take over as the interim offensive coordinator with the hope of getting quarterback Kirk Cousins […]

Ben Roethlisberger Doesn't Expect To Miss Week 15

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (ribs) said on his radio show on Tuesday that he doesn't expect to miss a big game in Week 15 against the Patriots.

Chargers Not Optimistic On Melvin Gordon, Austin Ekeler

The Los Angeles Chargers are not optimistic that running backs Melvin Gordon (knee) and Austin Ekeler (concussion, neck) will be ready to play on Thursday in a huge divisional game against the Chiefs, according to head coach Anthony Lynn. Rookies Justin Jackson and Detrez Newsome will likely have to carry the load, with Jackson likely […]
