Adrian Peterson Moving Well In Practice
Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle) was moving around well in practice on Friday and looks good to go for Monday night against the Saints. Peterson has looked spry so far through three games and is coming back fresh off the team's bye week. In what could be a high-scoring game, Peterson has volume-based […]

Dalvin Cook Likely To Be Questionable
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) missed practice again on Friday, but head coach Mike Zimmer said on Thursday that Cook would probably be listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Eagles. Cook looks more doubtful than questionable after not practicing all week. You should have no plans to use him this weekend. […]

C.J. Uzomah Could Be Main Tight End
ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell thinks that Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah has moved ahead of Tyler Kroft as the team's main pass-catching tight end with Tyler Eifert (ankle) likely done for the season. Uzomah has just seven catches on eight targets for 74 yards and a touchdown through four games, but expect his usage to […]

Giovani Bernard, John Ross Out Against Dolphins
Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) and wide receiver John Ross (groin) have been ruled out for Week 5 against the Dolphins. The good news for Cincy is that Joe Mixon (knee) is back from his knee injury, and he will immediately enter the RB1 conversation as the workhorse back against Miami. Ross has […]

Damarious Randall, Christian Kirksey Should Play Sunday
Cleveland Browns cornerback Damarious Randall (heel) and linebacker Christian Kirksey (flu) will be questionable for Week 5 against the Ravens, but both players should be fine, according to head coach Hue Jackson.

Jarvis Landry, Antonio Callaway Off Injury Report
Cleveland Browns wide receivers Jarvis Landry (knee) and Antonio Callaway (knee) have both been taken off the Week 5 injury report and will play against the Ravens. It's a tough matchup, but Landry is the team's unquestioned top wideout and is a must-play in fantasy, especially PPR leagues. Callaway has intriguing upside but hasn't been […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Frustrated With Offense
New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who has yet to score a touchdown through four games, is frustrated with the direction of the offense so far. "How come we can’t throw the ball for more than 20 yards? How come we don’t attempt or try to throw the ball for more than 20 […]

Steelers Want To Get James Conner More Involved
Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner has underwhelmed since his big season opener, and offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner thinks it's his fault. “I probably just need to do a better job heating him up,” Fichtner said, referring to giving Conner more carries. “It’s just like quarterbacks, too. You get into a rhythm. And all good […]

Dolphins Not Looking To Get Kenyan Drake Involved More
Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said the team will continue "splitting" snaps between running backs Kenyan Drake and Frank Gore.

D'Onta Foreman On Track To Return In A Couple Of Weeks
Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said that running back D'Onta Foreman (Achilles) is doing well in his rehab and is "on track" to return in a couple of weeks. With Lamar Miller not standing out through four weeks and now injured, Foreman has a chance to return and make his case for lead-back duties […]

Lamar Miller To Be Game-Time Decision
Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said running back Lamar Miller (chest) will be a game-time decision for Week 5 against the Cowboys on Sunday night. With Houston playing on Sunday night, that basically makes Miller one to avoid this weekend unless you also have Alfred Blue handcuffed. Miller has been on the RB2/3 borderline […]

Giovani Bernard, John Ross Looking Unlikely For Week 5
Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) didn't practice again on Friday and is not expected to play in Week 5 against the Dolphins.

Still Hope That Geronimo Allison Will Be Cleared
There remains hope that Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison (concussion) can be cleared from the concussion protocol in order to play in Week 5 against the Lions on Sunday. Time is running out, though, and there's still a good chance Allison doesn't play. He had six catches on a season-high 11 targets for […]

Davante Adams To Practice Saturday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (calf) will return to practice on Saturday. It's a good sign for Adams, but he's likely to be questionable for Week 5 against the Lions and could even be a game-time decision. Adams is clearly the team's No. 1 wideout and quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite target. If he's […]

Randall Cobb Ruled Out For Week 5
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Lions. Cobb will have missed the team's last two games now, and he won't be a lock to return in Week 6.

Chris Carson, Doug Baldwin Limited Thursday
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (hip) and wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) were limited in practice Thursday. It's a good sign for Carson after he missed practice Wednesday, although he was limited all of last week and was still inactive.

Marquise Goodwin Returns To Practice Thursday
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (hamstring, quadriceps) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing practice on Wednesday. It puts Goodwin on track to return in Week 5 against the Cardinals, where he could be covered by cornerback Patrick Peterson. Not only is it a bad matchup, but Goodwin has become a […]

Darius Leonard Will Not Play Thursday
Despite being active, Indianapolis Colts rookie linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle) and cornerback Nate Hairston (ankle) will not play on Thursday night against the Patriots.

Rob Gronkowski, Josh Gordon Playing Thursday Night
New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle) and wide receiver Josh Gordon (hamstring) are both active on Thursday night against the Colts. Gronk's ankle injury was never deemed serious, but he'll likely be at less than 100 percent against Indy. As long as he's on the field, he's a must-start for fantasy owners. Gordon […]

Adam Vinatieri, Darius Leonard, Anthony Castonzo Active
Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri (groin), rookie linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) are all active on Thursday night against the Patriots. Vinatieri might struggle for kicking opportunities if a banged-up Colts team is playing from behind all night, which makes him a weak fantasy play. Leonard and safety Clayton Geathers […]

Kevin Gausman, Sean Newcomb Could Start Games 3 And 4
Atlanta Braves starting pitchers Kevin Gausman and Sean Newcomb are the front-runners to pitch in Games 3 and 4, respectively, against the Dodgers in the National League Division Series. However, manager Brian Snitker wouldn't rule out using either pitcher or Julio Teheran in relief before then. Gausman was much better for the Braves than with […]

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay (ankle) did not practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday.

Alvin Kamara, Cameron Meredith Limited
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) and wide receiver Cameron Meredith (knee) were both limited in practice on Thursday. Both players should be good to go for Monday night against the Redskins.

Ted Ginn Does Not Practice Thursday
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (knee) did not practice on Thursday. Ginn will need to return to practice either Friday or Saturday to have a chance to play on Monday night against the Redskins. He has two scores this year but only 12 catches on 22 targets for 135 yards in four weeks. […]

Alex Collins' Missed Practice Was Precautionary
Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins' (knee) missed practice on Thursday was precautionary, according to a source. Collins should be able to play this Sunday against the Browns. However, his 3.5 yards per carry and two lost fumbles make him more of a low-end RB2 for fantasy owners. The fact that Javorius Allen continues to […]
