DeAndre Hopkins, Will Fuller Limited

Houston Texans wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins (ankle, thumb), Will Fuller (hamstring), Keke Coutee (hamstring) and Sammie Coates (hamstring), tight end Ryan Griffin (hip) and defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (back) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Both Hopkins and Fuller should be fine to play in a strong Week 3 matchup against the Giants and […]

Chad Kuhl Undergoes Surgery

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Chad Kuhl (elbow) underwent elbow surgery on Wednesday. It's unknown what the exact surgery is that Kuhl had, so stay tuned for details of the surgery and how long the right-hander might have to miss. Kuhl hadn't started since late June and had a 4.55 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 81 strikeouts […]

Addison Reed To Go On Paternity List

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Addison Reed will go on the paternity list to finish this week and will not travel west with the team after Wednesday's game. He'll have until Sept. 25 to return to the team for the final homestand of the season. Reed has struggled this year to a 4.67 ERA, 1.44 WHIP […]

Josh Rogers Done For The Year

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Josh Rogers is being shut down for the rest of the season, according to manager Buck Showalter. Rogers struggled in his first three big league starts, posting an 8.49 ERA and 1.89 WHIP with just six strikeouts in 11 2/3 innings. However, the left-hander has promise at this level and should […]

Shane Bieber Moving To Bullpen?

Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona hinted that starting pitcher Shane Bieber could be moving to the bullpen to close out the season. "We think that he's not being 'relegated' to the bullpen. He'd be going there to help us win," Francona said. Bieber will come out of the bullpen after Trevor Bauer pitches an inning […]

Jose Abreu Released From Hospital

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu (thigh) was released from the hospital on Wednesday but will be out for the team's current series that finishes up on Thursday. Abreu was dealing with an infection on his thigh, but he could be available to play as soon as Friday. If he's back in the starting […]

Welington Castillo Scratched With Elbow Soreness

Chicago White Sox catcher Welington Castillo (elbow) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Wednesday due to left elbow soreness. Kevan Smith will replace him behind the dish and hit seventh against Indians starter Carlos Carrasco. Smith isn't much of a hitter and should be avoided in DFS formats in a bad matchup. It's […]

Ryan Braun Dealing With Back Issues

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (back) is dealing with back issues and is not in the lineup again on Wednesday. With Lorenzo Cain also out, Curtis Granderson will play left field and lead off against Reds starter Matt Harvey. Domingo Santana is in right field and is hitting fifth. Both Granderson and Santana are worth […]

Derrick Henry, Taylor Lewan Limited Wednesday

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (back), offensive tackles Taylor Lewan (concussion) and Jack Conklin (knee) and tight end Luke Stocker (calf) were limited in practice on Wednesday. Henry has disappointed with just 2.9 yards per carry on 28 attempts through two weeks, and he has just one reception. With the offensive line still banged […]

Josh Gordon Limited In First Patriots Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon (hamstring) was limited on Wednesday in his first practice with his new team. Gordon should be able to play in Week 3 on Sunday night against the Lions, but how much can fantasy owners really expect from him? It's hard to say, and it all depends on how […]

Dalvin Cook Day-To-Day

Updating a previous report, Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) didn't practice on Wednesday and said he's taking it "day by day." Cook dealt with hamstring cramps in overtime in Week 2, but it's not believed to be something that will keep him out in Week 3 in a cushy matchup against the Bills. […]

Aaron Rodgers Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) did not get in a practice on Wednesday. The Packers will probably take it easy on Rodgers as he fights through a knee injury early in the season. Don't be surprised if he doesn't practice again until Saturday. We fully expect him to suit up again, though, and […]

Browns Ready For Antonio Callaway To Step Up

The Cleveland Browns are counting on rookie Antonio Callaway to step up as the X receiver after the team traded Josh Gordon to the Patriots this week. He showcased his ability in Week 2 with a 47-yard touchdown catch against the Saints. “He is making strides,” head coach Hue Jackson said Tuesday as the Browns […]

Anthony Castonzo Misses Practice Again

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. Castonzo was looking set to return in Week 2 but had a setback in the middle of the week. He's off to a bad start again this week as he looks to make his season debut. If he sits out again, Le'Raven Clark, […]

Julio Jones Does Not Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (calf) was held out of practice on Wednesday. Jones had 10 catches on 19 targets for 169 yards in Week 1, but he fell to five catches on nine targets for 64 yards in Week 2 and still hasn't scored yet. We're guessing his calf injury isn't all that […]

Trevor Bauer To Start Friday

The Cleveland Indians will activate starting pitcher Trevor Bauer (leg) from the disabled list in order to start on Friday against the Red Sox, according to manager Terry Francona. However, Bauer is only expected to go a couple innings and will be followed by starter Shane Bieber out of the bullpen. Bauer's next start could […]

Reshad Jones Misses Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) didn't practice on Wednesday, but head coach Adam Gase said Jones is day-to-day. Jones has six tackles and two interceptions on the season and is a top IDP safety when he's healthy. His absence would be an upgrade to Raiders quarterback Derek Carr and the deep passing game, including […]

Alshon Jeffery, Jason Peters Limited

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) and left tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Jeffery has yet to play this year, but he could be on his way back in Week 3 against the Colts after the team placed Mike Wallace (leg) on Injured Reserve. The Eagles are hurting […]

Marcus Mariota Splits First-Team Reps

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota's (elbow) status hasn't changed much, but head coach Mike Vrabel said Mariota and Blaine Gabbert split the first-team repetitions in practice on Wednesday. The team will continue to prepare both quarterbacks to play in Week 3 against the Jaguars. Mariota was active in Week 2 but didn't play at all, […]

Giovani Bernard Limited In Practice Wednesday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. We'd be surprised if Bernard were inactive in Week 3 against the Panthers, and he'll be tasked with taking over the backfield with Joe Mixon (knee) out at least a couple of weeks. Bernard will be in play as an RB3/flex play […]

Marquise Goodwin Limited Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (quadriceps) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Goodwin was inactive in Week 2 and has yet to catch a pass this season after being a popular breakout candidate. He has a shot to make it back in a great matchup against the soft Chiefs secondary in Week 3. […]

Joey Bosa Ruled Out For Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Rams. And he seems likely to miss several more weeks at a minimum. Bosa needs to be held onto in IDP leagues, but his extended absence becomes more worrisome each passing week. The Chargers defense/special teams has a […]

Evan Engram Puts In Limited Practice

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (ankle) and wide receiver/kick returner Kaelin Clay (ankle) were limited in practice on Wednesday. Engram should be fine to play in Week 3 against the Texans unless he suffers a setback this week. He has nine catches on 12 targets for 85 yards and a touchdown through two […]

Olivier Vernon, Eli Apple Miss Practice

New York Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) and cornerback Eli Apple (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. Vernon has yet to play this year as he works his way back from a high ankle sprain. The G-Men need his presence to improve their lackluster pass rush. If both he and Apple are out in […]

Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill Practice In Full

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (abdomen), wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, knee) all practiced in full on Wednesday. Parker was limited last week but didn't play for the second straight week. It's already looking like he's primed to make his season debut in Week 3 against the Raiders, which […]

Jay Ajayi, Darren Sproles Do Not Practice

Philadelphia Eagles running backs Jay Ajayi (back) and Darren Sproles (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. Head coach Doug Pederson has said that both players are day-to-day, but their availability for Week 3 against the Colts is looking sketchy. Sproles will almost certainly be doubtful, but Ajayi is more questionable. Either way, Corey Clement should […]

Wilmer Flores To Be Evaluated

New York Mets infielder Wilmer Flores (knees) is returning to New York to be checked out by doctors on Wednesday, according to manager Mickey Callaway. Even with the Mets well out of the playoff race, Flores hasn't been playing much and hasn't been very effective when he's been in there. There's a good chance that […]

Curtis Samuel Making Progress

Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera said "everything looks promising" for wide receiver Curtis Samuel (heart), who hasn't been practicing since undergoing a heart procedure in Week 1. He is being evaluated by trainers and has "been allowed to do certain workouts." Still, it doesn't look like Samuel will be available in Week 3 against […]

Paul Richardson Undergoes MRI

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee) underwent an MRI exam on his knee, but it came back negative. Richardson has been beat up this year already, which is perhaps why the team signed two receivers this week. He has eight catches on 12 targets for 85 yards through two weeks but is more of […]

James Paxton, Felix Hernandez Won't Pitch This Weekend

Seattle Mariners starting pitchers James Paxton (illness) and Felix Hernandez (hamstring) aren't lined up to start this weekend against the Rangers. If either pitcher makes one final start this year, it'll have to come at some point in the final week. Neither would be very attractive options coming off layoffs, but Paxton has been Seattle's […]
