Bills Unlikely To Trade LeSean McCoy

The Buffalo Bills are unlikely to trade running back LeSean McCoy to the Eagles, according to a key source. The source thinks that McCoy will stay in Buffalo this year and in 2019. The belief is that the Bills will ask for a lot for McCoy as well, and the Eagles don't seem ready to […]

Patriots Expected To Have All Playmakers Sunday Night

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle), wide receivers Josh Gordon (hamstring) and Chris Hogan (thigh) and rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) are all expected to play on Sunday night against the Chiefs. However, Michel will be a game-time decision. Gronk is an elite TE1 play against a poor Chiefs defense. Gordon and […]

DeMarcus Lawrence Expected To Play

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 6 against the Jaguars. Lawrence has been fighting through a torn labrum in his shoulder for two years, and it popped out of socket on him last Sunday night. However, he will play with a harness but might need offseason surgery. Lawrence […]

Justin Houston, Eric Berry Won't Play Against Patriots

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) and safety Eric Berry (heel) will be out on Sunday night against the Patriots. This comes as no surprise. Houston is week-to-week and Berry hasn't practiced or played yet in the regular season. An already weak KC defense gets even weaker without Houston, who is one of their […]

Jalen Ramsey Expected To Play Against Cowboys

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (knee), who is questionable and at one point was considered 50-50 to play in Week 6 against the Cowboys, is expected to play. It's bad news for a Cowboys passing game that is coming into this game as the worst unit in football. None of Dallas' receivers are enticing against […]

Steelers Haven't Heard From Le'Veon Bell

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell, who is expected to report to the team during their bye week in Week 7, has still yet to contact the team, according to sources. Bell has had no contact with Steelers officials or players. The Steelers remain in wait-and-see mode after Bell still hasn't signed his $14.5 million […]

DeVante Parker, Jakeem Grant Will Play Sunday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (quadriceps) and Jakeem Grant (shoulder) are both active in Week 6 against the Bears. Parker has played in just one game so far this year and didn't do much. He continues to be a bust for the Dolphins and fantasy owners and can't seriously be considered in any starting […]

A.J. Derby, Kalen Ballage, Cameron Wake Inactive

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot), running back Kalen Ballage and defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) are inactive for Week 6 against the Bears. With Derby still sidelined, rookie tight end Mike Gesicki should continue to have a near every-down role on Sunday, but he remains a touchdown-dependent TE2. Ballage has fallen behind Senorise […]

Deshaun Watson Active Against Bills

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (chest) is active for Week 6 against the Bills. Despite being questionable, there was no question that Watson would suit up for this game. He has looked more like his fantastic 2017 self in the last several games and should remain a strong QB1 option despite facing a Bills team […]

Caleb Sturgis Out For Chargers

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Browns. Sturgis was questionable all week. In his absence, the Chargers will roll with undrafted rookie Michael Badgley on Sunday against Cleveland. Needless to say, fantasy owners shouldn't be using Badgley in their lineups this week. Sturgis' injury didn't […]

Chase Edmonds Active Against Vikings

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Chase Edmonds (back) is active in Week 6 against the Vikings. He'll continue to fight for scraps behind starter David Johnson. Edmonds doesn't have any standalone fantasy value. Quarterback Sam Bradford, running back T.J. Logan and wide receivers Trent Sherfield and Kendall Wright are all healthy scratches.

Eric Ebron, Darius Leonard Active Against Jets

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee, quadriceps, shin) and rookie linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle) are both active in Week 6 against the Jets. Ebron is dealing with an assortment of injuries, but he should remain heavily involved with receiver T.Y. Hilton and tight end Jack Doyle still out. Ebron is a high-end TE1. […]

Martavis Bryant Will Play Against Seahawks

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Martavis Bryant (illness) is active for Week 6 in London against the Seahawks. Bryant will play in a game in which he could break out as the deep threat for the Oakland offense. However, Bryant remains more of a boom/bust WR4/flex option in standard-scoring leagues. His presence limits the upside of […]

Nick Vannett, C.J. Prosise Inactive In London

Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett (back) and running back C.J. Prosise are inactive for Week 6 against the Raiders in London. With Vannett out, the Seahawks will be forced to roll with Darrell Daniels and Tyrone Swoopes at the position. Neither player is worth considering as a desperation flier in fantasy leagues. Prosise remains […]

Adrian Peterson, Josh Doctson, Paul Richardson Active

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle, knee, shoulder) and wide receivers Josh Doctson (heel) and Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) are all active in Week 6 against the Panthers. The only healthy pass-catcher, ironically, is tight end Jordan Reed, so he could be in line for a heavy target share. At less than 100 percent, […]

John Ross Officially Ruled Out

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Steelers for the second straight week. Ross was able to practice all week, but the Bengals remain cautious with the speedster. As a result, A.J. Green and Tyler Boyd should see more targets, with Alex Erickson filling in as […]

Chris Thompson, Jamison Crowder Ruled Out

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (knee, rib) and wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) have been ruled out for Week 6 against the Panthers. The Redskins are extremely banged up on offense this week. With Thompson out, Adrian Peterson, who is also hobbled, will be the main back, but Kapri Bibbs should serve in a […]

Isaiah Crowell Active On Sunday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) is active for Week 6 against the Colts. Crowell ran for over 200 yards against the Broncos last week, so perhaps he was a little banged up from that. Regardless, he will play this Sunday and has a good matchup against the Colts defense. While he'll split […]

Greg Olsen Playing Against Redskins

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is active for Week 6 against the Redskins. It'll be his first game since re-fracturing his foot in the season opener. Olsen is at risk of re-injury and having his snaps limited, but given the weakness of the position, he'll be on the low-end TE1 radar. When he's […]

O.J. Howard Active Against Falcons

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (knee) is active for Week 6 against the Falcons. It's a very favorable matchup against a beat up Atlanta defense, but Howard could be limited in his first game back. Given the weak landscape of tight ends, Howard is still in play as a low-end TE1. His return […]

Ryan Tannehill Ruled Out Against Bears

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Bears. Backup Brock Osweiler will start in his place against a fierce Chicago defense that is well-rested coming off their bye week. Osweiler is at best a low-end QB2, and all of Miami's offensive weapons around him should be downgraded […]

Dalvin Cook Out In Week 6

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is out in Week 6 against the Cardinals. It's a bit of a surprise, as Cook was expected to play but have his snaps limited. But the Vikings chose to rest him for another weak in a very winnable game against the lowly Cardinals. With Cook out, Latavius […]

O.J. Howard Expected To Play

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (knee) is expected to play despite being listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Falcons, according to a source. Howard could be limited, but he should play and steal snaps from Cameron Brate, who is more of a red-zone weapon. Howard will be a little more risky […]

Browns Likely To Use Tight Ends More In Week 6

With Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Derrick Willies (collarbone) on Injured Reserve and Rashard Higgins (knee) out two to four weeks, the team will likely have increased repetitions for tight ends David Njoku, Seth DeValve and Darren Fells in Week 6 against the Chargers. Running back Duke Johnson should also be more involved in the […]

John Ross May Sit Out Second Straight Game

ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell thinks that Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) will sit out for a second straight week in Week 6 against the Steelers after practicing all week. Ross looked to be on track all week to return on Sunday, so he might be a game-time decision. As Cincy's third receiver that has […]

George Kittle, Pierre Garcon Questionable Against Packers

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee) and wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee, shoulder) were both limited in practice on Saturday and are questionable against the Packers on Monday night. Both players are expected to play, but Garcon will be at less than 100 percent and could be limited. With receivers Trent Taylor doubtful […]

Matt Breida Will Be Game-Time Decision

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said running back Matt Breida (ankle) will be a game-time decision on Monday against the Packers. Breida was limited in practice on Saturday and is officially listed as questionable. It's a good sign that Breida was able to practice after sitting out on Thursday and Friday, but he […]

Brock Holt, Steve Pearce Starting In Game 1

Boston Red Sox infielder Brock Holt and first baseman Steve Pearce are both in the starting lineup for Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against Astros ace Justin Verlander on Saturday. Holt is at second base and is hitting sixth, while Pearce is at first base and is batting fifth. Holt hit for […]

Greg Olsen To Play Sunday

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is set to start in Week 6 against the Redskins, according to a team source. Olsen hasn't had any setbacks so far. It'll be Olsen's first action since he re-fractured his foot in the season opener. Despite the fact that he could be limited, Olsen is a low-end […]

Josh Hader Won't Pitch In Game 2

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader will not pitch in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers on Saturday after pitching three clean innings in the Game 1 win on Friday. Hader led all of baseball and set a franchise relief record with 143 regular season strikeouts. Manager Craig Counsell only […]
