Tyreek Hill Will Play Against Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel, wrist), who is questionable for Thursday night against the Chargers, will play, according to a source. This was expected after Hill was limited in practice the last two games. He was limping badly late in the Week 14 overtime win over the Ravens, but Hill should be […]

Rashaad Penny Won't Practice Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny (knee) won't practice on Wednesday due to a sore knee. Head coach Pete Carroll doesn't seem too concerned. Penny has shown flashes in his rookie year, but it's been a frustrating year for the first-round pick because of a lack of consistent touches. He ran eight times for […]

Kerryon Johnson, Bruce Ellington Absent

Detroit Lions rookie running back Kerryon Johnson (knee) and wide receiver Bruce Ellington (hamstring) both missed practice on Wednesday. Both players seem destined to miss Week 15 against the Bills. Johnson has now missed the last three games and could sit out the rest of the year with nothing left to play for. LeGarrette Blount and […]

Julio Jones, Austin Hooper Not Practicing

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (foot) and tight end Austin Hooper (leg) are not practicing on Wednesday. Jones missed practice time last week as well but played and tore up the Packers to the tune of eight catches, 106 yards and two touchdowns. Even in a potential matchup with Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson in […]

Courtland Sutton Back At Practice Wednesday

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Courtland Sutton (thigh) returned to practice on Wednesday after sitting out on Tuesday. Sutton should be fine to play in Week 15 against the Browns on Saturday. He's now the team's No. 1 wideout with Emmanuel Sanders (Achilles) out, but Sutton had only two catches for 14 yards as the […]

Dodgers, Reds Continue To Discuss Trade

The Los Angeles Dodgers and Cincinnati Reds continue to talk trades, with Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp and Reds starting pitcher Homer Bailey a part of the conversations, according to sources. Outfielder Yasiel Puig is another option to head to Cincinnati, with the Dodgers having a surplus of outfielders yet also being in on free-agent outfielder […]

Yanks Have No Preference For Gleyber Torres' Position

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said it doesn't really matter where infielder Gleyber Torres plays -- second base or shortstop -- to start the 2019 season with Didi Gregorius (elbow) injured. It'll likely depend on who the Yanks bring in through free agency, with shortstop Manny Machado looming large as one of their most […]

Ezekiel Elliott Sits Out Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. The Cowboys are likely just resting Elliott with the regular season winding down. He has rushed for over 100 yards in four of the last five games and has nine total touchdowns on the season. Elliott will be a top-three fantasy running back […]

Rays Interested In J.T. Realmuto

The Tampa Bay Rays are interested in trading for Miami Marlins catcher J.T. Realmuto and have the young players to pull it off. However, it's a bit interesting after they already traded for Mike Zunino early this offseason. The Rays are probably just checking to see if Miami's price for Realmuto has dropped after failing […]

Charlie Morton Signs With Rays

The Tampa Bay Rays signed free-agent starting pitcher Charlie Morton to a two-year, $30 million deal on Wednesday, according to sources with knowledge of the deal. The deal also includes a third-year option that could be as low as $1 million if Morton misses significant time over the first two years because of injury. The […]

T.Y. Hilton Now Dealing With Ankle Injury

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (ankle) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Tight end Mo Alie-Cox (calf) was limited and wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (shoulder) practiced in full, so they should both be able to return after missing last week. It always seems to be something with Hilton, but he played through […]

Rays Close To Signing Charlie Morton

The Tampa Bay Rays are close to signing free-agent starting pitcher Charlie Morton, according to sources. Morton is coming off two great seasons with the Astros, although he did wear down a bit toward the end of last year. The 35-year-old had 15 wins, a 3.13 ERA and 202 strikeouts in 167 innings and will […]

Johnny Cueto Could Pitch Late Next Year

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Johnny Cueto's (elbow) agent, Bryce Dixon, said he's optimistic that his client will make a full recovery and potentially return late next season. Either way, Cueto won't be on the fantasy map in redraft leagues for the 2019 season. He had a 3.23 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 6.5 K/9 over […]

Tyreek Hill Questionable For Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel, wrist) is listed as questionable for Week 15 against the Chargers on Thursday night. Hill was limited the last two days, so he's on track to return in a big divisional game against the Bolts. With running back Spencer Ware (hamstring, shoulder) doubtful to play, expect the […]

Matt Breida Returns To Limited Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after sitting out in Week 14. Breida is on track for a return in Week 15 against the Seahawks, but the Niners could easily decide to limit him with nothing really on the line for their season. We could be […]

Spencer Ware Doubtful To Face Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring, shoulder) is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Chargers. In perhaps one of the biggest games of the year for both teams, they could both be down to their third-string running backs. Damien Williams is in line to see the majority of touches in what […]

Melvin Gordon Questionable, Austin Ekeler Out

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (knee) is questionable for Thursday night against the Chiefs, while Austin Ekeler (concussion, neck) has been ruled out. Gordon returned to practice on Tuesday but will be a game-time decision. If he suits up, he will be at less than 100 percent and in danger of having his […]

Reds Discussing Sonny Gray, Marcus Stroman

The Cincinnati Reds remain active in trade discussions for New York Yankees starting pitcher Sonny Gray and Toronto Blue Jays starter Marcus Stroman, according to sources. The Reds think there's a better chance of acquiring them than Cleveland Indians ace Corey Kluber. Gray and Stroman both had down seasons in 2018 but have the ability […]

David Johnson Expected To Play

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said that running back David Johnson (quadriceps) is expected to play in Week 15 against the Falcons despite missing practice on Wednesday. The Falcons allow a lot of receptions and points to running backs, so Johnson has an opportunity to help fantasy owners in the semifinals this weekend. However, […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Officially Limited Wednesday

Updating a previous report, New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) was officially limited in practice on Wednesday, taking part in individual drills during the portion of practice open to the media. While OBJ was a surprise last-minute inactive in Week 14, he should be on track to return against the Titans in […]

Ryan Tannehill Expected To Face Vikings

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is expected to start in Week 15 against the Vikings "unless something crazy happens." He left the game briefly in the miracle Week 14 win over the Patriots and will be limited in practice this week. Head coach Adam Gase said that Tannehill looked "good" in practice and moved […]

Elijah McGuire, Trenton Cannon Return To Practice

New York Jets running backs Elijah McGuire (ankle) and Trenton Cannon (toe) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after sitting out on Tuesday. It puts both on track to play on Saturday against the Texans. It's important with Isaiah Crowell (toe) seemingly unlikely to suit up this weekend. McGuire is a candidate for a […]

Isaiah Crowell Out Again Wednesday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) remained out of practice for the second straight day on Wednesday. Crowell was seen wearing a walking boot on Tuesday and seems unlikely to play on Saturday against the Texans. Don't plan on using him in the fantasy semifinals. Elijah McGuire and Trenton Cannon should split the […]

DeSean Jackson Still Not Practicing

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (thumb) remains out of practice on Wednesday. D-Jax hasn't played in two weeks and looks unlikely to face the Ravens in Week 15. There's still a chance the Bucs hold him out the rest of the year with nothing on the line, but Jackson remains optimistic that he […]

A's Talking About Jurickson Profar

The Oakland Athletics are among the teams talking to the Texas Rangers about a trade for infielder Jurickson Profar, according to sources. Profar would be an option to play the keystone if free-agent second baseman Jed Lowrie signs elsewhere on the open market. Franklin Barreto is also an internal possibility. Profar was a post-hype breakout […]

Mets Meet With Adam Jones

The New York Mets met with free-agent outfielder Adam Jones in Las Vegas at the winter meetings. Jones can still be a valuable veteran right-handed outfield bat for a club in need, but he's 33 years old and is no longer the stud offensive weapon he used to be in his prime with Baltimore. Jones […]

Jordy Mercer Joining Tigers

The Detroit Tigers have agreed to an undisclosed deal with free-agent shortstop Jordy Mercer. Detroit will replace the glove-first Jose Iglesias with another defensive-minded player in Mercer, who turned 32 in August. He hit just .251/.315/.381 with six home runs and 39 RBI in 394 at-bats for the Pirates this year and has virtually no […]

Braves Considering A.J. Pollock

The Atlanta Braves could make an offer to free-agent outfielder A.J. Pollock. Atlanta already has Ender Inciarte lined up as their starter in center field, but they could opt to trade him if they ended up signing Pollock. Pollock has had trouble staying healthy in his career, but he has a very attractive power/speed combination […]

Jordan Reed, Josh Doctson Not Practicing

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (toe) and wide receiver Josh Doctson (concussion) are not practicing on Wednesday. With Washington's season crumbling due to a plethora of injuries to key players, it's no lock that they rush either Reed or Doctson back onto the field for Week 15 against the Jaguars. Reed remained healthy for […]

Derek Holland Wants To Stay In National League

Free-agent starting pitcher Derek Holland's preference is to re-sign with the San Francisco Giants or at least stay in the National League. The 32-year-old southpaw had a bounce-back year with San Fran in 2018, going 7-9 with a 3.57 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 169 K's in 171 1/3 innings across 36 outings (30 starts). The […]
