Jonnu Smith To Miss Rest Of Season

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith (knee) will miss the rest of the season with an MCL injury, according to a source. Smith was rolled up on during Derrick Henry's 99-yard touchdown run on Thursday night. He had come on strong lately as the team's main pass-catching tight end, and he'll finish the 2018 season […]

Dodgers Could Trade Yasiel Puig

The Los Angeles Dodgers could finally trade outfielder Yasiel Puig this winter, as he's set to be a free agent after the 2019 season. Puig remains inconsistent with his production and the Dodgers have a surplus of outfielders. Los Angeles has made several attempts to trade Puig in recent seasons but couldn't find a taker. […]

T.Y. Hilton To Be Game-Time Decision

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (shoulder) will be a game-time decision in Week 14 against the Texans. However, head coach Frank Reich is "feeling somewhat optimistic" that Hilton will play in an important divisional game. We think that Hilton will suit up against a team that he usually plays really well against. The game […]

Dontrelle Inman, Mo Alie-Cox Ruled Out

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (shoulder) and tight end Mo Alie-Cox (calf) have both been ruled out for Week 14 against the Texans. With Inman out, Chester Rogers should see more opportunities as the No. 3 wideout, but he's a low-ceiling WR5 and should be avoided in most leagues. Alie-Cox will miss his third […]

Denzel Ward Ruled Out Against Panthers

Cleveland Browns rookie cornerback Denzel Ward (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Panthers. Ward has been the team's best cornerback in his rookie season and has shown a nose for the football, so it'll certainly be a downgrade for a defense going up against a strong offense in Carolina. Ward's absence […]

Graham Gano Won't Kick In Week 14

Carolina Panthers kicker Graham Gano (knee) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Browns, according to a source. However, his injury doesn't seem to be a long-term one, so he could be back in Week 15. The Panthers signed Chandler Catanzaro on Friday, so he'll handle the kicking duties this Sunday. He wasn't […]

Xavien Howard Ruled Out Against Patriots

Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (knee) has been ruled out for Week 14 against the Patriots. Howard is week-to-week and could also sit out next week. His absence this weekend severely limits Miami's secondary and is good news for the outlook of Patriots receiver Josh Gordon.

Isaiah Crowell, Robby Anderson Questionable

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) and wide receiver Robby Anderson (ankle) were both limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 14 against the Bills. ESPN's Rich Cimini says that both players should be good to go. Crowell and Anderson have battled through injuries for much of the year. Crowell […]

Sammy Watkins Out 4-6 Weeks

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) suffered a setback and is now out four to six weeks, according to a source. It means that Watkins won't be available now at least until the playoffs, meaning he won't help fantasy owners the rest of the way. It makes sense after the team signed Kelvin […]

Luis Valbuena Dies In Car Crash

Free-agent infielder Luis Valbuena and former major leaguer Jose Castillo were both killed in a car accident in Venezuela on Thursday. Both players were leaving the stadium after playing in a game in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League. Authorities said their car went to the opposite side of the road while trying to avoid a […]

Angels Interested In Marwin Gonzalez

The Los Angeles Angels are believed to be interested in free-agent infielder/outfielder Marwin Gonzalez. Gonzalez had a career-high 23 home runs in 2017 and hit .303, but he fell back to Earth last season by hitting .247/.324/.409 with 16 home runs and 68 RBI in 145 games with the Astros. He still has some notable […]

Astros Considering Josh Harrison

The Houston Astros have considered free-agent infielder Josh Harrison, who would serve as a replacement for Marwin Gonzalez at a much lower cost if they can't re-sign Gonzalez. Harrison would fill the utility role that Gonzalez handled in Houston. The 31-year-old Harrison had a bad year in 2018, hitting .250/.293/.363 with eight home runs and […]

Panthers Sign Chandler Catanzaro

The Carolina Panthers signed free-agent kicker Chandler Catanzaro on Friday with Graham Gano (knee) limited in practice on Thursday. Guard Amini Silatolu (knee) was put on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Those that own Gano need to make alternate plans this week with him being questionable after missing practice on Friday. Catanzaro made 11 […]

Keke Coutee A Game-Time Decision Again

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said that rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) will be a game-time decision in Week 14 against the Colts. Coutee was also a game-time decision last week before sitting out. He seems closer to playing this week, but his status can't be taken for granted. Even if the promising […]

DeSean Jackson Not Expected To Face Saints

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (thumb) is not expected to play in Week 14 against the Saints. D-Jax has been running in practice but still can't catch passes and looks likely to miss his second straight game. There have been rumblings that the team could decide to shut him down for the rest […]

Dontrelle Inman Still Out

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (shoulder) remained out of practice on Friday and is highly unlikely to play in Week 14 against the Texans. Inman hasn't practiced all week. If he's out, it'll mean slightly bigger roles for Ryan Grant and Chester Rogers, although they're still not worth using in most fantasy lineups.

T.Y. Hilton, Eric Ebron Return To Practice

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (hamstring) and tight end Eric Ebron (illness) both returned to practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days. Both players will play in an important divisional game in Week 14 against the Texans and should be in all starting lineups. Hilton went over 100 yards against Houston […]

Jonnu Smith Helped Off Field Thursday Night

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith (leg) was rolled up on during running back Derrick Henry's incredible 99-yard touchdown run on Thursday night against the Jaguars and had to be helped off to the locker room in the second quarter. He was unable to put any weight on his leg, which is never a good […]

Marcell Ozuna Expected To Be Ready In January

St. Louis Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said that outfielder Marcell Ozuna (shoulder), who had shoulder surgery in late October, is expected to be fully cleared in January. Ozuna hit .280/.325/.433 with 23 home runs, 88 RBI, 69 runs and three steals in 148 games in his first season with the RedBirds, but more was […]

Richard Sherman Willing To Move To Safety

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman said he's willing to move to safety as he nears the end of his career. “It’s definitely something that I’ve looked at,” Sherman said. “And something that I’ve talked with (Charles Woodson) about.” Sherman is 30 years old this year and anticipates playing at least four or five more […]

Chiefs Sign Kelvin Benjamin

The Kansas City Chiefs signed free-agent wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin on Thursday, according to a source. Benjamin was a bust with the Bills in parts of two seasons with them. He recorded only 23 receptions on 62 targets for 354 yards (career-high 15.4 yards per catch) and one touchdown in 12 games before being released […]

A.J. Minter Could Be Closer In 2019

The Atlanta Braves may use an in-house reliever as their closer to open the 2019 season, and A.J. Minter could be the best long-term option with Arodys Vizcaino having durability issues with his right shoulder. Edwin Diaz was acquired in a trade by the Mets and free-agent closer Craig Kimbrel's asking price is currently too […]

Yu Darvish Weeks Away From Throwing

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Yu Darvish (elbow) has been looking strong and healthy and is a few weeks away from throwing, according to president Theo Epstein. Those that paid up for the Japanese right-hander in 2018 certainly had buyer's remorse, as Darvish didn't make it past May and made just eight starts because of his […]

Kris Bryant To Begin Hitting In January

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant (shoulder) is progressing without limitations and is expected to begin hitting in January, according to president Theo Epstein. Bryant's left shoulder injury was the story of his disappointing 2018 season, as it limited him tremendously in the second half. He hit .272/.374/.460 and his counting stats (13 homers, 52 […]

Ryan Switzer On Track To Play

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver/returner Ryan Switzer (concussion) got in his second straight full practice on Thursday and looks to be on track to play in Week 14 against the Raiders after suffering a concussion last Sunday night. Switzer is more of an asset to the Steelers on special teams than he is in the offense, […]

Seth Roberts Added To Injury Report

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Seth Roberts (concussion) was added to the Week 14 injury report and was limited in practice on Thursday. It's not a good sign that Roberts is listed with a concussion in the middle of the week, but he still has a chance to play against the Steelers this weekend. Roberts hasn't […]

Chris Carson Limited In Practice

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (finger) was limited in practice on Thursday after dislocating his index finger in Week 13. The Seahawks expect Carson to play on Monday night in a tough matchup against the Vikings. He remains the team's lead back, but rookie Rashaad Penny, who had a good game last Sunday, could […]

Doug Baldwin Misses Practice Thursday

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (hip) did not practice on Thursday. Linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) and offensive guard D.J. Fluker (hamstring) also missed practice and are not expected to play Monday night against the Vikings in a big game with playoff implications. Baldwin has been beat up all year, but the team could be […]

Rays Showing Interest In Charlie Morton

The Tampa Bay Rays have shown interest in free-agent starting pitcher Charlie Morton. Morton dealt with arm troubles down the stretch last season and turned 35 last month, but the veteran right-hander went 15-3 for Houston last year with a solid 3.13 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 201 strikeouts and just 64 walks in 30 starts. […]

Pierre Garcon Downgraded Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Garcon didn't play last week after being limited in practice all week, so he may be looking at another missed game. The 32-year-old hasn't played since Nov. 1 and has just one touchdown on the season […]
