Felix Hernandez Day-To-Day

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez (hamstring) is being listed as day-to-day after leaving his start in the fifth inning with a tight right hamstring on Saturday. King Felix allowed six hits and one earned run over four innings in a no-decision against the Yankees before departing. The veteran right-hander hasn't been much of a […]

Andrew Miller To Be Activated Monday

The Cleveland Indians plan to activate relief pitcher Andrew Miller (shoulder) from the disabled list on Monday. It's been a tough year for Miller due to multiple trips to the disabled list this season. However, he looks to be finally healthy after a cortisone shot and could help owners down the stretch with his fine […]

Miguel Andujar Injured Saturday

New York Yankees rookie third baseman Miguel Andujar (forearm) was removed from the game early on Saturday after he was hit by a pitch on the right forearm. Andujar was 2-for-3 with a strikeout before leaving the game. The injury didn't look to be too serious, but don't be surprised if he's rested on Sunday. […]

X-Rays Negative On Noah Syndergaard

X-rays came back negative on New York Mets starting pitcher Noah Syndergaard (ribs) after he was hit by a line drive in the ribs on Saturday. Syndergaard allowed a season-high 12 hits and four earned runs while also walking four in 6 2/3 innings against the Phillies, but he still got the win to go […]

Yangervis Solarte Activated From DL

The Toronto Blue Jays activated infielder Yangervis Solarte (oblique) from the 10-day disabled list on Sunday, and he will play second base and hit seventh against Indians starter Mike Clevinger. Solarte may not be a great play initially in a tough matchup against Clevinger, but he'll return to being valuable in deep mixed and AL-only […]

Shohei Ohtani Playing Sunday

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (thigh) is in the starting lineup on Sunday after suffering a right thigh contusion during a home plate collision on Saturday. Ohtani is hitting cleanup against White Sox starter Reynaldo Lopez. Since Tommy John surgery was recommended for the two-way Japanese start, Ohtani is 7-for-12 with a triple, […]

Robert Griffin III A Healthy Scratch

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III is inactive for Week 1 against the Bills. The Ravens have some packages in place for rookie Lamar Jackson as the backup to Joe Flacco. While Jackson's athletic abilities are intriguing, he won't be on the field enough to warrant fantasy consideration. Jackson is mainly a dynasty stash for […]

Mark Walton, Cody Core Inactive

Cincinnati Bengals running back Mark Walton and wide receiver Cody Core (back) are inactive for Week 1 against the Colts. Wide receiver Auden Tate is also a healthy scratch for this one. With the rookie Walton inactive, Tra Carson should serve as the No. 3 back behind Joe Mixon and Giovani Bernard. Core and the […]

Josh Gordon Expected To Play 20 Snaps

The plan is for Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon to play roughly 20 snaps, give or take, in Week 1 against the Steelers. Gordon was behind in training camp and the preseason after reporting late, and then he suffered a minor hamstring injury. He will not start in this contest but will play. With […]

Kyle Lauletta Inactive In Week 1

New York Giants rookie quarterback Kyle Lauletta is inactive in Week 1 against the Jaguars. The Giants chose to go with Alex Tanney over the rookie in the season opener as Eli Manning's backup. That could change as the season develops, though, as the Giants coaching staff has been high on Lauletta.

Cameron Meredith A Healthy Scratch

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith is inactive for Week 1 against the Buccaneers. Meredith was slow to recover from his knee injury that kept him out for all of 2017 in training camp and the preseason. He can easily work his way back up the depth chart with more repetitions and good health, […]

Ronald Jones II Not Playing

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie running back Ronald Jones II is inactive for Week 1 against the Saints. Jones was terrible in the preseason and lost out on the starting gig to Peyton Barber. Jones has plenty of talent and a lot of upside, but his role is murky to begin the season. With him being […]

Sony Michel, Jacob Hollister Out Against Texans

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and tight end Jacob Hollister (hamstring) are inactive for Week 1 against the Texans. Michel was never realistically going to suit up for the season opener, but he should be able to make it back in Week 2. With him out, Rex Burkhead and James White […]

Keke Coutee Out, Sammie Coates Active

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) is inactive for Week 1 against the Patriots, while receiver Sammie Coates (hamstring) will play. Will Fuller is also out for the Texans, giving quarterback Deshaun Watson limited options in the passing game behind stud DeAndre Hopkins. Expect Hopkins to see a ton of targets in this […]

Roc Thomas, Mike Boone Out For Week 1

Minnesota Vikings rookie running backs Roc Thomas and Mike Boone are inactive for Week 1 against the 49ers. Cornerback Mackensie Alexander is also out with an injury. The Vikings will go with only Dalvin Cook and Latavius Murray in their backfield for the season opener. With slot corner Alexander out, expect rookie Mike Hughes to […]

DeVante Parker, Kalen Ballage Inactive

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and rookie Kalen Ballage are inactive for Week 1 against the Titans. Parker is no surprise on this list, and he might even be questionable for Week 2. Kenny Stills should be the top receiver against the Titans, with Danny Amendola, Albert Wilson and Jakeem Grant also seeing […]

Cameron Meredith Warming Up With Backups

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith was seen warming up with practice squad players before the Week 1 game against the Buccaneers. Meredith was behind in training camp and the preseason while recovering from a knee injury that kept him out all of last year. His role was in question coming into the season […]

Mark Barron Doubtful For Week 1

Los Angeles Rams linebacker Mark Barron (ankle) didn't practice all week and is doubtful for Week 1 against the Raiders on Monday night. When healthy, Barron is a tackling machine and is on the IDP radar. He managed 86 tackles, a sack and three interceptions in 14 games last year and tallied 100-plus tackles each […]

Joey Bosa Seeking Second Opinion

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot), who is out for Week 1 against the Chiefs, will travel to Green Bay to visit with Dr. Robert Anderson on Wednesday for a second opinion on his injured foot. The timing of his visit suggests his status for Week 2 against the Bills in doubt. Sources […]

Martavis Bryant Facing Year-Long Suspension

Free-agent wide receiver Martavis Bryant is facing a year-long suspension for his latest violation of the league's substance-abuse policy, according to a source. The NFL is reviewing the matter and could announce a decision early this week. Since it would be Bryant's third suspension in four years, it could mean the end of his football […]

Carson Wentz Not Ruled Out For Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) "hasn't been ruled out" for Week 2 against the Buccaneers, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. However, Wentz also has yet to be cleared by doctors. "He has reached that threshold in being able to protect himself. So, sooner than later on Carson Wentz," Mortensen said. Regardless, Wentz may be […]

LeSean McCoy Not Expected To Face Charges

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy is not expected to face charges stemming from an alleged home invasion robbery at a residence that he owns in Georgia that left his ex-girlfriend hospitalized, according to a source informed of the situation. The police currently do not have enough evidence to charge McCoy with anything. McCoy doesn't […]

Steelers Not Considering Trading Le'Veon Bell

The Pittsburgh Steelers are not considering a trade of running back Le'Veon Bell, according to a source. The Steelers plan to wait out his holdout, and some around Bell believe that he'll be back before the end of September. Bell was likely a top-three fantasy selection in most fantasy leagues, so the longer he holds […]

Ravens Have Packages For Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Ravens have packages in place for quarterback Lamar Jackson in Week 1 against the Bills, according to a source. While Jackson should be active and could see some time on the field in the season opener, it won't be enough to make him worthy of a starting spot in fantasy lineups. Joe Flacco […]

Austin Carr To Work Out Of Slot

New Orleans Saints undrafted wide receiver Austin Carr is expected to work out of the slot in Week 1 against the Buccaneers. Despite only playing in one career game with no catches, he has impressed quarterback Drew Brees enough and gained his trust. Carr could be DFS deep sleeper on Sunday in a good matchup.

Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Are Game-Time Decisions

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) will both work out pregame to test their injuries on Sunday, and the team is expected to exercise a high level of caution with them. They need to show significant improvement in order to be active in Week 1 against the Bengals. […]

DeVante Parker Not Expected To Play

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) is not expected to play in Week 1 against the Titans, according to a source. This doesn't come as a surprise, as Parker was listed as doubtful to play. He won't necessarily be a lock to return in Week 2 either. With Parker out on Sunday, Kenny Stills […]

Daryl Williams Looks Likely To Play

Carolina Panthers right tackle Daryl Williams (knee) looks good to play in Week 1 against the Cowboys, according to a source. He will see how he feels in warmups to be sure. Williams' diligent rehab over the last six weeks after suffering a dislocated kneecap has allowed him to be ready for the season opener. […]

Greg Olsen Good To Go

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back), who was listed as questionable for Week 1 against the Cowboys, is good to go, according to a source. His back was "a little sore early in the week but no issues," the source said. While Olsen might be scaled back a little bit in the season opener, […]

Rob Gronkowski Resisted Potential Trade

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski resisted a potential trade during the offseason when he was away from the team and considering retirement, according to sources. He told the Patriots that he would rather retire than play for another team. The two sides agreed on a reworked deal with incentives to keep him happy […]
