Jose Altuve To Return To Second Base Thursday

A nagging knee injury has kept Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (knee) as the designated hitter for Games 3 and 4 of the American League Championship Series against the Red Sox, but he is scheduled to return to the field on Thursday for Game 5, according to manager A.J. Hinch. Altuve had a great […]

David Price Available In Relief Wednesday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher David Price will be available out of the bullpen for Game 4 of the American League Championship Series against the Astros on Wednesday, according to manager Alex Cora. Price has struggled mightily in his postseason career and allowed seven earned runs on eight hits (three homers) in 6 1/3 innings […]

Chris Sale Won't Start Game 5

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said starting pitcher Chris Sale (illness) will not start Game 5 of the American League Championship Series against the Astros on Thursday. "He still feels weak. He lost some weight. It’s hard to believe, but he did. ... He’s feeling better, but physically he’s not there," Cora said. Instead, […]

Ryan Tannehill Unable To Throw

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday. He worked on his footwork and handed the ball off with his right arm, but he didn't throw. "Anything that has to do with pocket movement, footwork, things like that, he can do everything," head coach Gase said Wednesday. "He just can't throw." […]

Greg Zuerlein Ready To Return This Week

Los Angeles Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Greg the Leg has been out since injuring his groin on Sept. 16, but he's primed to return in Week 7 against the 49ers after the team cut Cairo Santos (the fill-in) on Tuesday. Zuerlein has one of the strongest […]

Josh Reynolds Limited In Practice

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) was limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Reynolds, but it shouldn't keep him out of Week 7 against the 49ers. With Cooper Kupp (knee) likely missing multiple games, Reynolds should enter the fray in three-receiver sets this weekend. It'll make him a flex […]

Julian Edelman Lands On Injury Report

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (heel) is on the injury report this week and was limited in practice on Wednesday. The Pats usually list most of their playmakers on the injury report, but they usually play. Edelman didn't appear to be injured on Sunday night, so he should be fine for his third […]

Dante Pettis, Trent Taylor Limited In Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Dante Pettis (knee) and Trent Taylor (back) were both limited in practice on Wednesday, suggesting that they could return in Week 7 against the Rams. Pettis hasn't played since Sept. 23, while Taylor was inactive on Monday night. Even if both players are able to return this Sunday, neither would be […]

Pierre Garcon Misses Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee, shoulder) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Garcon played on Monday night despite being questionable, so the Niners are likely just resting the veteran on a short week. He caught four of his six targets for 37 yards in the loss to the Packers, and […]

Khalil Mack Sits Out Of Practice

Chicago Bears defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) was not at practice on Wednesday after injuring his ankle in the overtime loss to the Dolphins in Week 6. It remains to be seen if this injury will actually keep Mack from playing, but if he's out, it'd obviously be a huge loss for a strong Bears […]

Allen Robinson Listed As Limited Wednesday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (groin) was limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for the Bears top receiver, but it doesn't look serious enough to keep him out in Week 7's showdown against the Patriots. Robinson has caught touchdowns in back-to-back games and will have WR2 upside in a good matchup […]

Wade Miley To Start Game 6 Of NLCS

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley was pulled after walking the only batter he faced in the first inning of Game 5 of the National League Championship Series on Wednesday, but he is now lined up to start in Game 6 against the Dodgers on Friday. Miley was only slated to face the first left-hander […]

Dalvin Cook Practicing In Full

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is practicing in full on Wednesday. It looks like Week 7 against the Jets will finally be the week that Cook returns after aggravating his hamstring in Week 4 on Thursday night. He's been a fantasy bust thus far, rushing 36 times for 98 scoreless yards (2.7 yards […]

Cameron Meredith Limited Coming Off Bye

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith (knee) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday. The Saints continue to be cautious with Meredith's knee after he missed all of last season. His role continues to grow in the offense, as he's seen more targets and more snaps in all three of the games he's played […]

Carson Wentz Puts In Limited Practice

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (back) was limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Wentz, but we doubt it's serious enough to keep him from playing in Week 7 against the Panthers. He quietly has eight touchdowns and no interceptions all year despite playing behind a lackluster offensive line. Wentz remains in […]

Alex Bregman Leading Off Wednesday

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman is hitting leadoff in Game 4 of the American League Championship Series on Wednesday against Red Sox starter Rick Porcello. George Springer will move to No. 2, while Jose Altuve will be in the third spot. While Bregman probably won't have the opportunity to drive in as many runs, […]

Rafael Devers, Brock Holt Starting In Game 4

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers and infielder Brock Holt are both in the starting lineup for Game 4 of the American League Championship Series against Astros starter Charlie Morton. Devers is at the hot corner and is batting fifth, while Holt is at the keystone and is hitting seventh. Devers was expected to […]

John Ross Practicing In Full

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) practiced in full on Wednesday for the first time since he suffered his injury on Sept. 30. Ross has practiced the last two weeks but has been inactive on game day as they bring him back slowly. It looks like he has a really good chance of returning […]

Cooper Kupp Officially Ruled Out For Week 7

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said it is safe to rule wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) out for Week 7 against the 49ers. This was the expectation after he was injured in Week 6 against Denver. Depending on how his knee responds, Kupp could be in danger of missing multiple games. Robert Woods […]

A.J. Derby Back To Full Practice

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday after being inactive in Week 6. It means that Derby is on track to return this Sunday against the Lions. Derby has only two catches on three targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in three games this year, but […]

C.J. Uzomah Gets Limited Tag Wednesday

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (shoulder) was listed as limited in practice on Wednesday. He should be fine for Sunday night against the Chiefs unless he suffers a setback later this week. Uzomah has become the team's main pass-catching tight end with Tyler Kroft (foot) injured and Tyler Eifert (ankle) done for the year. […]

Giovani Bernard Not Taking Part In Practice

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday. Bernard is hoping to return from his knee sprain soon, but it might not be this Sunday night against the Chiefs. When Bernard is cleared, he'll return to his change-of-pace duties behind Joe Mixon and be in the mix as an RB3/flex play […]

T.Y. Hilton Practices In Full

Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) is practicing in full on Wednesday after missing the last two games. “The guys need me,” Hilton said earlier in the day. “So I’m here for them.” However, neither Hilton nor head coach Frank Reich are guaranteeing that he suits up in Week […]

No Practice For Theo Riddick

Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Coming off a bye week, this is not a good sign for Riddick's chances of playing in Week 7 against the Dolphins. If he's out or limited, it'd mean more snaps and touches for both rookie Kerryon Johnson and LeGarrette Blount. Johnson has […]

Isaiah Crowell, Robby Anderson Sitting Out Of Practice

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) and wide receiver Robby Anderson (hamstring) both did not practice on Wednesday. Both players should be able to return to practice at some point this week and play in Week 7 against the Vikings, but we'll have to keep an eye on their status moving forward. Crowell […]

Robert Turbin Sidelined Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Turbin went down with what looked to be a serious shoulder injury in Week 6, so we wouldn't be surprised if he's unable to play this Sunday against the Bills. He has just four carries for 10 yards on the year and also […]

Chris Thompson Limited Wednesday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (knee, rib) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Thompson sat out in Week 6 but could return to face the division-rival Cowboys this Sunday. If he does, he'll remain in play as an RB3/flex in PPR leagues as the team's pass-catching back. Thompson's return would also slightly […]

Ted Ginn Still Not Practicing

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (knee) remains out of practice on Wednesday. It's not a good sign coming off the bye week after he sat out in Week 5. Rookie Tre'Quan Smith, who caught two touchdowns in the team's last game, and Cameron Meredith have most likely passed Ginn on the depth chart […]

Adrian Peterson, Jamison Crowder, Paul Richardson Sit Out

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle, knee, shoulder) and wide receivers Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee) all sat out of practice on Wednesday. Peterson has been banged up for a few weeks now but continues to play. He'll remain a high-volume RB2, but his ceiling will be lowered a bit with the […]

Pump The Breaks On Raheem Mostert

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that running back Raheem Mostert over Alfred Morris isn't a permanent situation. Mostert worked out better on Monday night against the Packers and ran extremely well. Morris shockingly played zero snaps in the loss, while Mostert combined with Matt Breida in the backfield and ran for 87 […]
