Odell Beckham Jr. Officially Ruled Out

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) has officially been ruled out for Week 16 against the Colts. It'll be his third straight missed game. Beckham picked the worst possible time to get injured and miss games, as his fantasy owners weren't able to use him at all in the fantasy playoffs. The […]

LeSean McCoy Ready To Go

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that it looks like running back LeSean McCoy (hamstring) is good to go for Week 16 against the Patriots. McCoy returned to a full practice on Thursday, suggesting he'll return after sitting out in Week 15. Backup Chris Ivory is expected to play, too. With Buffalo's offense so […]

T.Y. Hilton Practicing Friday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (ankle) was back at practice after missing the sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. Hilton missed practice all of last week and still played against the Cowboys, so he'll be fine for Week 16 against the Giants in a must-win game. The team's No. 1 wideout has double-digit targets in […]

No Practice For Randall Cobb

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (concussion) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Cobb isn't looking likely to suit up in Week 16 against the Jets. He'll need to clear the concussion protocol and practice on Friday to have a chance of playing. In a lost season, it seems likely that […]

DeSean Jackson Practices In Full

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (thumb) practiced in full on Thursday. D-Jax hasn't played since Nov. 25 against the 49ers and couldn't squeeze a football as recently as last week, but he looks to be on track to return in Week 16 against the Cowboys. His return would hurt the upside of both […]

Quincy Enunwa Won't Play In Week 16

New York Jets head coach Todd Bowles said that wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (ankle) will not play in Week 16 against the Packers. It'll be his second straight missed game. Enunwa hasn't reached 100 yards in a game this year and hasn't scored since Sept. 10 against the Lions. He's well off the fantasy radar […]

Jordan Reed Ruled Out For Week 16

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (toe) has been ruled out for the second straight week in Week 16 against the Titans. With Washington's chances at a playoff spot hanging on by a thread, it's unlikely that the oft-injured Reed will play again this year. Vernon Davis is also questionable to play this weekend, so […]

Julio Jones Back At Practice Friday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hip, ribs) is returning to practice on Friday after sitting out Wednesday and Thursday. Head coach Dan Quinn will address Jones' availability for Week 16 against the Panthers after practice. In a game that doesn't mean anything, Jones could be rested or have his snaps limited. We ultimately expect […]

Andrew Miller Signs With Cardinals

The St. Louis Cardinals officially signed free-agent relief pitcher Andrew Miller to a two-year, $25 million deal that includes a vesting option and a full no-trade clause, according to a source. His option is worth $12 million and vests at 110 games combined in 2019 and 2020. He'll also be able to make $500,000 per […]

A's Acquire Jurickson Profar In Three-Team Trade

The Oakland Athletics acquired infielder Jurickson Profar from the Texas Rangers on Friday in a deal that also included the Tampa Bay Rays, according to league sources.

Odell Beckham Jr. Expected To Be Out

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) only rode the stationary bike during the portion of practice open to the media on Friday, and he's expected to be ruled out later in the day for Week 16 against Colts. Wide receiver Russell Shepard also missed another practice. It looks like OBJ will miss […]

Cardinals Closing In On Andrew Miller

The St. Louis Cardinals are closing in on a deal for free-agent relief pitcher Andrew Miller, according to sources. Miller was on the disabled list multiple times in 2018 and never really found his footing, finishing with an un Miller-like 4.24 ERA and 1.38 WHIP, although he still struck out 45 hitters in 34 innings. […]

LeGarrette Blount Added To Injury Report

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount (calf) was added to the Week 16 injury report and was limited on Thursday. Blount could be questionable to face the Vikings this weekend. Despite finding the end zone five times this year, Blount is averaging an embarrassing 2.8 yards per carry and has lost touches to Zach Zenner […]

DeVante Parker Being Phased Out Of Offense

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker is basically being phased out of the offense and isn't likely to be a part of the team's future. Offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains said: "It's combination of injuries, production, practice." Parker has only played in nine games on the season and has 22 catches on 41 targets for 296 […]

Ito Smith Undergoes Knee Scope

Atlanta Falcons rookie running back Ito Smith (knee) had a knee scope, according to head coach Dan Quinn. Smith is expected to have a full offseason. With Tevin Coleman likely to leave in free agency and Devonta Freeman coming off an injury-riddled campaign, Smith could be in line for some serious touches to begin the […]

Tajae Sharpe Questionable

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 16 against the Redskins on Saturday. Sharpe has been battling his ankle injury for several weeks now but has played through it. He also has just one catch on one target for six yards in the last two games, so he's not […]

Josh Doctson, Vernon Davis Questionable

Washington Redskins wide receivers Josh Doctson (back) and Maurice Harris (concussion) and tight end Vernon Davis (concussion) are questionable for Week 16 on Saturday against the Titans. Davis didn't practice on Thursday after having concussion-like symptoms on Wednesday. Doctson injured his back in practice on Wednesday, making his availability uncertain. The Redskins are one of […]

Tyler Boyd Looking Unlikely For Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd (knee) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Dealing with a sprained knee, Boyd is likely to miss the final two weeks of the regular season. He posted his first 1,000-yard season in 2018, though, so his season will end on a high note. With Boyd likely […]

Jamaal Williams To Be Big Part Of Game Plan

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (toe) is expected to be a big part of the game plan in Week 16 against the Jets, according to interim head coach Joe Philbin. Williams has been limited in practice this week with a toe injury, but obviously it's not serious enough to limit him this weekend. […]

Eric Ebron, Dontrelle Inman Back At Practice

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (quadriceps) and wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (shoulder) both returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday. Both players should play in a must-win game against the Giants this weekend. Despite Ebron's dud against the Cowboys in Week 15, he remains one of the more attractive fantasy tight ends […]

LeSean McCoy Says He'll Play

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (hamstring), who returned to a full practice on Thursday, said he will play in Week 16 against the Patriots. Backup Chris Ivory also got in a full practice after missing Week 15. It appears both backs will return against New England, making Shady an RB3/flex in a dysfunctional and […]

Odell Beckham Jr., Russell Shepard Out Of Practice

New York Giants wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) and Russell Shepard (ankle) both missed practice on Thursday. OBJ was on the side working with a trainer and catching balls from the Jugs machine, but his status doesn't look good for Week 16 against the Colts. Beckham could miss his third straight game. If both […]

Alshon Jeffery Still Out Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (illness) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Kicker Jake Elliott (illness) also sat out Both players should suit up on Sunday in a must-win game against the Texans, but there Friday participation will be key. Jeffery had one of his best games with Nick Foles under […]

Anibal Sanchez Agrees With Nationals

Free-agent starting pitcher Anibal Sanchez agreed to a two-year, $19 million deal with the Washington Nationals on Thursday, according to multiple reports. Sanchez will help bring up the rear of the rotation behind Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg and Patrick Corbin after the team traded Tanner Roark. The 34-year-old surprisingly went 7-6 with a 2.83 ERA […]

Angels Sign Trevor Cahill

The Los Angeles Angels signed free-agent starting pitcher Trevor Cahill to a one-year, $9 million deal on Thursday, according to a source. Incentives could push the total to $10.5 million. Cahill will stay in the west, where he went 7-4 with a 3.76 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 100 strikeouts in 110 innings (20 starts) for […]

Daniel Murphy Agrees With Rockies

Free-agent second baseman Daniel Murphy agreed to a deal with the Colorado Rockies on Thursday. The deal is expected to be for two years and $24 million. Murphy isn't the best defensive second baseman, so he'll likely be Colorado's main first baseman, which means Ian Desmond should move to the outfield full time. Murphy will […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Injured In Practice Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (groin) left practice early with a groin injury on Thursday and was officially limited. Smith-Schuster's Friday practice status will be huge. He could very well be questionable and a game-time decision in a big game against the Saints this weekend. He'll be a WR2 if he plays in a […]

Austin Ekeler Doubtful To Face Ravens

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (concussion, neck) is listed as doubtful for Week 16 against the Ravens on Saturday. Ekeler looks primed to miss his second straight game. With Melvin Gordon (knee) set to return this weekend, rookie Justin Jackson will serve in the change-of-pace role and will only have value as an […]
