Leonard Fournette Expected To Return After Bye

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring), who is out for Week 7 against the Texans, is still on track to return after the team's Week 9 bye. The Jaguars traded for running back Carlos Hyde on Friday in order to give them insurance in case Fournette suffers another setback with his hamstring injury. Fournette […]

Mohamed Sanu Misses Another Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (hip) missed practice for the second straight day on Friday. If Sanu can't return to practice on Saturday, it won't be looking good for his chances of playing on Monday night against the Giants. If he's listed as questionable, he'll be too risky to use on Monday night. Sanu […]

Calvin Ridley Limited In Practice Friday

Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Calvin Ridley (ankle) was limited in practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday. Ridley is just dealing with a bone bruise, so he should be able to suit up on Monday night against the Giants. He'll be more intriguing as a WR3 if Mohamed Sanu (hip) is forced to […]

Marshawn Lynch Could Land On Injured Reserve

Updating a previous report, Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch (groin) is a strong candidate to go on Injured Reserve. Lynch will miss at least a month with his injury and could be done for the year if he's put on IR. Doug Martin should handle the early downs in his absence, with Jalen Richard […]

Justin Houston, Eric Berry Doubtful To Face Bengals

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) and safety Eric Berry (heel) missed practice all week and are doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Bengals. Houston is one of the team's best pass rushers, so having him miss another game will be a big blow to KC's already poor defense. Berry hasn't practiced […]

Pierre Garcon, Trent Taylor Questionable

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Pierre Garcon (knee, shoulder) and Trent Taylor (back) are both questionable to play in Week 7 against the Rams. Cornerback Richard Sherman (calf) is also listed as questionable. Even with Rams corner Aqib Talib still out injured, neither Garcon nor Taylor are very attractive to fantasy owners if they suit […]

Dante Pettis Ruled Out For Week 7

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis (knee) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Rams. Pettis has now been out since Sept. 30 and shouldn't be owned in most leagues. He has just three catches on seven targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in four games played. When healthy, he's fourth […]

Four Patriots Playmakers Questionable Against Bears

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle, back), rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Julian Edelman (heel) and Josh Gordon (hamstring) were all limited in practice all week and are questionable for Week 7 against the Bears. There has been no indication that any of them are in danger of sitting […]

Josh Rosen Should Be OK For Week 8

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said rookie quarterback Josh Rosen (toe) is dealing with a sprained toe, but he should be OK for Week 8 against the 49ers. With 10 days until their next game, Rosen has extra time to heal up. He was dreadful in the 45-10 blowout loss to the Broncos on […]

Ryan Griffin Ruled Out Against Jaguars

Houston Texans tight end Ryan Griffin (illness) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Jaguars. Griffin has only 10 catches on 25 targets for 140 yards in six games, so he wasn't worth stashing on fantasy rosters to begin with. In his absence, rookies Jordan Akins and Jordan Thomas will handle the tight […]

Travis Shaw Hitting Cleanup In Game 6 Of NLCS

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw is starting at second base and is hitting cleanup against Dodgers left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series on Friday. It's a nice lineup placement, but Shaw hit just .209/.303/.296 with two of his 32 homers during the regular season against southpaws. He did take […]

Chris Sale To Start Game 1 Of World Series

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that starting pitcher Chris Sale (illness) will start Game 1 of the World Series against either the Brewers or Dodgers. While it's not official yet, it will "probably" be David Price in Game 2 in Boston. Sale will have plenty of rest, with his last start coming in […]

Nick Chubb Sees Immediate Boost

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Nick Chubb will see his role boosted significantly with the team trading Carlos Hyde to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday. Chubb has 173 yards on just 16 carries (10.8 yards per carry) and two scores in six games this year, but he just wasn't seeing enough work behind Hyde and […]

Gerald McCoy, Vinny Curry Out In Week 7

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (calf) and defensive end Vinny Curry (ankle) have both been ruled out for Week 7 against the Browns. Rookie defensive tackle Vita Vea will make his first NFL start in place of McCoy. For a Tampa defense that has struggled mightily this year, it won't help to be […]

Theo Riddick Ruled Out Against Dolphins

Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick (knee) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Dolphins. Coming off the bye week, this isn't a good sign for Riddick. He might not be able to return in Week 8 either. In his absence, rookie Kerryon Johnson should see a bigger […]

Matt Davidson Trying To Become Two-Way Player

Chicago White Sox third baseman Matt Davidson will focus on becoming a two-way player this offseason. The White Sox support the decision and plan on assessing him throughout the offseason. Davidson tossed three scoreless innings in three blowout games in 2018, giving up one hit and a walk while striking out two. He has a […]

DeVante Parker, Cameron Wake Questionable For Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (quadriceps) and defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) both practiced in full on Friday but are questionable for Week 7 against the Lions. Parker practiced all week and should be fine. He has just two catches on four targets for 40 yards in two games this year, though, and shouldn't […]

Emmanuel Sanders Fine, Royce Freeman Day-To-Day

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ankle) is fine after tweaking his ankle late in the Thursday night blowout of the Cardinals. Running back Royce Freeman (ankle) and wide receiver Daesean Hamilton (knee) are listed as day-to-day. Sanders had his best game of the season Thursday, catching six of seven targets for 102 yards and […]

Allen Robinson, Khalil Mack Questionable Against Pats

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (groin) and defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) are both questionable for Week 7 against the Patriots. However, both players returned to practice on Friday, and we'd expect them to play on Sunday. Robinson is a fine No. 2 fantasy wideout in an attackable matchup against New England's secondary. Mack […]

Adrian Peterson, Chris Thompson Listed As Questionable

Washington Redskins running backs Adrian Peterson (ankle, shoulder) and Chris Thompson (knee, rib) are both questionable for Week 7 against the Cowboys. Both players are expected to play in this one, and the Redskins could lean heavily on their backs with receivers Jamison Crowder out and Paul Richardson questionable. Peterson is a volume-based RB2 that […]

Paul Richardson Doubtful To Face Cowboys

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) is doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Cowboys. The Redskins are now running dangerously thin on receivers with Jamison Crowder (ankle) ruled out for the second straight game. Quarterback Alex Smith will have to lean on Josh Doctson and Maurice Harris as well as tight […]

Jamison Crowder To Miss Second Straight Game

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Cowboys, according to head coach Jay Gruden. Crowder will miss his second straight game. After being talked about as a potential breakout candidate for the second straight year, Crowder continues to disappoint fantasy owners and can probably be dropped […]

Royce Freeman Dealing With High Ankle Sprain

Denver Broncos rookie running back Royce Freeman (ankle) suffered a high ankle sprain in the win over the Cardinals on Thursday night. Normally a multi-week injury, the Broncos are optimistic that Freeman may not miss any time. The Broncos have 10 days until they face the Chiefs in Week 8, so if Freeman heals quickly, […]

Colts Optimistic T.Y. Hilton Will Play

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich is optimistic that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (hamstring) will play in Week 7 against the Bills after missing the last two games. It's great news for quarterback Andrew Luck, especially since Ryan Grant is out and Marcus Johnson landed on Injured Reserve. However, consider Hilton more of a WR3 […]

Ryan Grant, Jack Doyle, Robert Turbin Ruled Out For Week 7

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle), tight end Jack Doyle (hip) and running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) have been ruled out for Week 7 against the Bills. The good news is that the Colts could be getting T.Y. Hilton back for this game. Grant and Doyle both belong on the waiver wire in most […]

Dalvin Cook Ruled Out Against Jets

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Jets. Cook has become an early-round bust for fantasy owners, as he's played in just three games this year and has 36 carries for 98 yards (2.7 yards per carry). Latavius Murray will once again get most of the […]

Hunter Harvey To Start Throwing Program In December

Baltimore Orioles pitching prospect Hunter Harvey (elbow, forearm) is scheduled to start a throwing program in December. Harvey hasn't been able to stay healthy so far in his young career, but he's still the team's No. 8 prospect and is only 24 years old. The right-hander only pitched in nine games in 2018 and had […]

Isaiah Crowell Gets Questionable Tag

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is listed as questionable for Week 7 against the Vikings. Head coach Todd Bowles is saying that Crowell will be a game-time decision. In a tough matchup, Crowell is shaping up as a risky RB3/flex. He could see his workload dialed back even if he does play. […]

Terrelle Pryor, Trumaine Johnson Doubtful Against Vikings

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (groin) and cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) are both listed as doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Vikings. With Pryor unlikely to play and Quincy Enunwa out multiple weeks, New York's receiving group is thin. Robby Anderson and Jermaine Kearse should see much bigger roles, and Charone […]

Leonard Fournette, James O'Shaughnessy Out

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) have been ruled out for Week 7 against the Texans. Fournette has become a bust for fantasy owners and has played in just two games this year, running 20 times for 71 yards. It's looking more and more likely that they will […]
