Isaiah Crowell Questionable For Week 6

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Colts. He was limited in practice on Friday and will be a game-time decision Sunday morning. Ultimately, we'd expect Crowell to play after running all over the Broncos for over 200 yards in Week 5. But if he […]

Jets Secondary To Be Short-Handed Against Colts

New York Jets cornerback Buster Skrine (concussion) is out and cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) is doubtful for Week 6 against the Colts, severely limiting the team's secondary against quarterback Andrew Luck. The good news for New York is Indianapolis will likely be without receiver T.Y. Hilton and tight end Jack Doyle. Still, this is great […]

Leonard Fournette Has Chance To Play In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) did some running on Friday and has a chance to play in Week 7, according to head coach Doug Marrone. That's great news, as it was reported earlier this week that there was a chance that Fournette could be held out until after the team's bye in Week […]

Jalen Ramsey Questionable To Face Cowboys

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Cowboys. Ramsey was added to the injury report on Thursday. The Jags may not push to have Ramsey play, as they're facing arguably the worst passing offense and set of receivers in the […]

John Ross Questionable For Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) is questionable for Week 6 against the Steelers. Ross sat out last weekend but has practiced this week and looks ready to return in a matchup against a weak secondary. However, Ross is a boom-or-bust WR4/5 option and can't be trusted in standard-sized leagues if he plays. He's […]

Giovani Bernard, Tyler Kroft Officially Out

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) and tight end Tyler Kroft (foot) have both been officially ruled out for Week 6 against the Steelers. Neither player was expected to return this weekend, but Bernard could be back in the fold as the complement to Joe Mixon next week. Mixon has RB1 upside in a […]

Derrick Willies Questionable Against Chargers

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Derrick Willies (shoulder) fell on his shoulder in practice on Friday and was limited, and he's now questionable for Week 6 against the Chargers. The Browns are also without Rashard Higgins for two to four weeks, so Rod Streater might have to fill in as the third wideout on Sunday. Jarvis […]

Chris Hogan Returns To Practice Friday

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan (thigh) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out on Thursday. It looks like Hogan should be fine to play on Sunday night in the showdown against the Chiefs. However, Hogan hasn't really been involved in this passing game in an offense that has a lot of mouths […]

Von Miller Lacking For Big Plays

Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller has four sacks on the season but hasn't had one since the second quarter of Week 2 against the Raiders. The three-time All-Pro pass rusher knows he needs to make more plays if his team is to pull out of their three-game losing streak. Denver has 11 sacks in five […]

Devonta Freeman Still Not Practicing

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) remains absent from practice on Friday, meaning that it's unlikely he'll suit up in Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Freeman was making a return in Week 5 after a three-game absence due to a knee injury he suffered in the season opener, and now it looks like he'll […]

T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle Not Expected To Play

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) missed practice again on Friday and are not expected to play in Week 6 against the Jets. Both players also sat out last Thursday against the Pats. Indy's offense has limited options around them, but Chester Rogers and Ryan Grant should […]

Eric Ebron Has A Shot To Play

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee, quadriceps, shin) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. It's a good sign that he'll be able to play in Week 6 against the Jets, although he still might be listed as questionable. We ultimately believe he'll be able to play, and […]

Rams Run Defense Has Been Terrible

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said the team's run defense the last two weeks has been "terrible, without question." The Rams remain undefeated at 5-0, but they allowed the Seahawks and Vikings to each score 31 points the last two weeks. Seattle ran for 190 yards and a touchdown in Week 5, while […]

Julian Edelman Praises Josh Gordon

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman believes that Josh Gordon can be a huge weapon for this team. "Dude works hard, great teammates," Edelman told reporters Thursday, via the Patriots' official website. "I really think he can be a really big piece for us. Gordon has played just 36 snaps on offense in the […]

Julio Urias Added To NLCS Roster

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urias has been added to the roster for the National League Championship Series against the Brewers in favor of lefty reliever Scott Alexander. Ross Stripling also was left off the roster. Most of Urias' 2018 season was spent rehabbing after left shoulder surgery. He only tossed four innings in the […]

Jason Peters May Have Suffered Torn Biceps

Philadelphia Eagles left tackle Jason Peters (biceps) is believed to have suffered a torn biceps on Thursday against the Giants, although he told reporters after the game he was OK. Sources are saying that doctors are optimistic that Peters will be able to play through his injury, although an MRI exam is pending. Not many […]

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison To Work With Rehab Group

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) will both work in the rehab group again on Friday. Both players were listed as limited on Thursday, so that should be the same again Friday. It's good news that they are getting work in, but their statuses for Monday night against […]

Aaron Rodgers To Practice Friday

The plan is for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) to practice on Friday. The Packers continue to hold Rodgers out of practice early in the week, but he is getting his work in later in the week and continues to play through his knee injury on game days. He should be fine for […]

Nick Vannett Gets In Limited Practice

Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett (back) was limited in practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It puts the tight end on track to play in London in Week 6 against the Raiders. Vannett caught three of his four targets last week for a season-high 43 yards. He should remain the main pass-catching […]

Cody Latimer Injured Against Eagles

New York Giants wide receiver Cody Latimer (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter of the blowout loss to the Eagles on Thursday night. Latimer caught three of four targets for a season-high 52 yards in the loss. The Giants had little answer for the Eagles in this game, and Latimer probably saw […]

Adam Eaton Available Via Trade?

Some believe that Washington Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton is available in a trade now that prospect Victor Robles is ready for a full-time role in this outfield. Both Robles and Juan Soto are the future for the Nats outfield, so Eaton may see a decrease in playing time if he remains in Washington. He hit […]

Dee Gordon Could Be Trade Candidate

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dee Gordon could be a trade candidate this winter with Robinson Cano reportedly wanting his second base job back. Gordon and shortstop Jean Segura also got into a fight this year. Gordon is making $13 million annually, however, which would make him "untradeable" in the words of a rival executive. It's […]

Phillies Unlikely To Sign Both Manny Machado, Bryce Harper

The Philadelphia Phillies are unlikely to sign both impending free-agent shortstop/third baseman Manny Machado and outfielder Bryce Harper, but it shouldn't be ruled out. Philadelphia is expected to be the most aggressive team on the free-agent market. They have a strong connection to Machado, but Harper could be the guy they land, as he'd have […]

Bob Melvin Expected To Receive Contract Extension

Oakland Athletics manager Bob Melvin, a Manager of the Year candidate, is expected to receive a contract extension in the offseason. General manager David Forst and front-office man Billy Beane have also earned extensions with their current contracts up after the 2019 season. After three straight losing seasons, Melvin managed the A's to an excellent […]

Mickey Callaway To Have Short Leash In 2019

New York Mets manager Mickey Callaway is expected to have a short leash in 2019, as there is a split on him within the team's front office. Some in the front office see it as a work in progress that may not work out and whether he's suited for New York. Callaway was also hired […]

Twins Have Several Candidates For Manager Job

Minnesota Twins' Derek Shelton is a top candidate to replace Paul Molitor as the team's next manager. Rocco Baldelli, who is on the Rays coaching staff, and Brewers bench coach Pat Murphy are also under consideration, according to 1500 ESPN's Darren Wolfson. Giants front office man Hensley Meulens could be a candidate as well.

Dan Straily, Jose Urena Could Be On Trading Block

Miami Marlins starting pitchers Dan Straily and Jose Urena could be on the trading block this winter. Both pitchers are arbitration-eligible, and Urena figures to be the more attractive piece, as he's younger and had an excellent finish to the year after a bad first half. Straily had a 4.12 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 99 […]

Mike Soroka Begins Throwing

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher prospect Mike Soroka (shoulder) has begun throwing after being shut down at the end of August. Soroka posted a 3.51 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 7.4 K/9 in just five starts in his rookie year for Atlanta. If he can control his pitches, Soroka should be a fine mixed league option with […]

Atlanta Will Consider Re-Signing Kurt Suzuki

The Atlanta Braves will consider bringing catcher Kurt Suzuki back for another year. They like the combination that both he and Tyler Flowers give them behind the plate. Suzuki hit .271/.332/.444 with 12 homers and 50 RBI in 105 games while splitting time with Flowers. While the limited playing time is a concern in fantasy, […]

Braves Won't Give Nick Markakis A Qualifying Offer

The Atlanta Braves don't plan on extending outfielder Nick Markakis a $17.9 million qualifying offer for 2019 despite his excellent season. The 34-year-old had a great season, hitting .297/.366/.440 with 14 home runs, 93 RBI and 78 runs. His age and the fact that he doesn't have much power will keep his upside limited for […]
