Wesley Woodyard Expected To Return This Week
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said linebacker Wesley Woodyard (shoulder) should be able to return in Week 7 against the Chargers in London.

Derrick Morgan Out A Few Weeks
Tennessee Titans linebacker Derrick Morgan (shoulder) will be out for a few weeks, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. With Wesley Woodyard also dealing with an injury and sitting out in the Week 6 shutout loss to the Ravens, the interior of Tennessee's defense is compromised at the moment. Morgan had only eight tackles on […]

D'Onta Foreman Unlikely To Return This Week
Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said it's unlikely that the team activates running back D'Onta Foreman (Achilles) this week. With Lamar Miller underwhelming in the backfield after his 98-yard performance in the season opener, Foreman could have an opening to steal a lot of touches in the second half of the season if he […]

Charles Harris Week-To-Week
Miami Dolphins defensive end Charles Harris (calf) is "week-to-week" after injuring himself in practice last Friday, according to head coach Adam Gase.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) turned his ankle in the Week 6 loss to the Chargers, and it limited his effectiveness, according to a source.

Ronald Leary Could Have Torn Achilles
Denver Broncos left guard Ronald Leary (Achilles) is feared to have suffered a torn Achilles in the Week 6 loss to the Rams, according to a source. It would be a big blow to an offensive line that is nothing special in front of a very mediocre Case Keenum under center. Expect Max Garcia to […]

Case Keenum To Remain Broncos Quarterback
Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph gave quarterback Case Keenum a vote of confidence after the Week 6 loss to the Rams. “Case is our quarterback," Joseph said.

Patriots Playmakers Are Active Against Chiefs
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle), rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Josh Gordon (hamstring) and Chris Hogan (thigh) are all active on Sunday night against the Chiefs.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tavon Austin (groin) suffered a groin injury in the second half of Week 6 against the Jaguars and has been ruled out for the rest of the game.

Justin Pugh Suffers Broken Hand
Arizona Cardinals right guard Justin Pugh (hand) said that he suffered a broken left hand in the Week 6 loss to the Vikings. It's another bad sign for a beleaguered offensive line, although Pugh could wind up playing through the injury and wearing a cast. Jeremy Vujnovich would likely take over if Pugh has to […]

The Minnesota Vikings fear that rookie cornerback Mike Hughes, their first-round pick, suffered a torn ACL in the Week 6 win over the Cardinals, according to league sources.

In a surprise development, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) has returned in the second half of the Week 6 game against the Broncos after being carted off in the first half.

Niles Paul Injured Against Dallas
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Niles Paul (knee) left the game early in the first half in Week 6 against the Cowboys and is questionable to return.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) was carted off the field in Week 6 against the Broncos after suffering an ugly left knee injury when he was tackled illegally (horse-collar tackle) out of bounds.

Mohamed Sanu Injured Sunday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (knee) left the game in the second half in Week 6 against the Buccaneers and is questionable to return. Sanu caught both of his targets for 46 yards and a touchdown, so all is not lost for his fantasy owners if he doesn't return in this game. Rookie Calvin […]
