Bryce Harper Not A Target For Cardinals

After the St. Louis Cardinals acquired first baseman Paul Goldschmidt on Wednesday, they are not targeting free-agent outfielder Bryce Harper, according to sources. The team will shift their offseason priorities to improving their bullpen and adding a left-handed hitting bench player. Harper will have plenty of other suitors despite hitting only .249 in 2018. However, […]

Doug Martin Expected To Face Steelers

Oakland Raiders running back Doug Martin (knee) practiced in full on Wednesday and should be good to go in Week 14 against the Steelers, barring a setback. Martin has scored a touchdown on the ground in back-to-back weeks and is hoping to make it three games in a row this Sunday. He'll be a touchdown-dependent, […]

Cole Beasley A Limited Participant

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Beasley is optimistic about his chances of playing in a huge divisional game against the Eagles in Week 14 despite spraining his foot last Thursday. Beasley has just one 100-yard game this year and also scored his only two touchdowns in […]

Dontrelle Inman Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Dontrelle Inman (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Inman just doesn't have much of a fantasy ceiling and hasn't had more than six catches or 52 yards in his six games with the Colts this season. Even if he's able to return to practice and play in Week 14 against the […]

Sam Darnold Plans To Play Against Bills

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) said he plans to play in Week 14 against the Bills "barring something catastrophic." Darnold hasn't played since Nov. 4 against the Dolphins -- a game in which he threw four interceptions -- but practiced in full on Wednesday and is on track to return this weekend. […]

D.J. Chark Ruled Out For Thursday Night

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver D.J. Chark (quadriceps) didn't practice at all this week and will miss his third straight game on Thursday night against the Titans. Chark has been a non-factor on a run-first offense with quarterback issues in his first season in the NFL, catching only 14 passes on 30 targets for 174 […]

Marquise Goodwin Back With Team

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (personal) is back with the team and returned to practice on Wednesday. Goodwin has missed the last two games due to personal family issues, but he looks likely to return in Week 14 against the Broncos. He'll still be a boom-or-bust WR4/flex with quarterback Nick Mullens struggling under […]

Red Sox Intensifying Negotiations With Nathan Eovaldi

The Boston Red Sox are intensifying their negotiations to re-sign starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi, according to sources. The hard-throwing right-hander had a 3.33 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 8.0 K/9 in 12 outings (11 starts) for Boston after they traded for him and he was nearly unhittable in the postseason on his way to helping the […]

Pierre Garcon Limited Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. The aging veteran was limited in practice all last week and didn't play. The 32-year-old hasn't played since Nov. 1 and has just 24 catches on 46 targets for 286 yards and one touchdown in 2018. Even if he return this […]

Danny Amendola Returns To Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Amendola sat out in Week 13 but appears to be on track to face his old team in Week 14 in the Patriots. The 33-year-old caught seven of 10 targets for 72 yards on Nov. 11 but will be hard-pressed […]

Mitch Trubisky Practicing In Full

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) practiced in full on Wednesday. Everything has been pointing to Trubisky returning to the starting gig after missing the last two games, and his full practice on Wednesday confirms it. Unless he suffers a setback to close out the week, Chase Daniel will go back to holding the clipboard […]

Melvin Gordon Still Not Practicing

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (knee) remained out of practice on Wednesday. The Chargers are holding out hope that Gordon can return to face the Bengals in Week 14, but the star running back isn't off to a good start. LA probably won't even need Gordon to beat the hapless and injured Cincy […]

Michael Thomas Sidelined Wednesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. It's not what his fantasy owners or the Saints want to see with the fantasy playoffs starting this week. Thomas is a must-start WR1 anytime he's on the field, and he has a great matchup in Tampa's soft secondary. If he plays, […]

Mariners Looking To Flip Carlos Santana

The Seattle Mariners are willing to trade first baseman Carlos Santana after they just acquired him from the Phillies, according to sources. Seattle would likely have to eat some of the money still owed to Santana in order to trade him away. Santana gets on base with the best of them (.352 on-base percentage last […]

D-Backs Land Carson Kelly, Luke Weaver

The Arizona Diamondbacks acquired catcher Carson Kelly, starting pitcher Luke Weaver, infielder Andy Young and a Compensation Round B pick in next year's draft from the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday in exchange for first baseman Paul Goldschmidt. Goldy is a superstar but had just one year left on his deal and the D-backs weren't […]

Cardinals Acquire Paul Goldschmidt

The St. Louis Cardinals will acquire Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt in exchange for catcher Carson Kelly, starting pitcher Luke Weaver, infielder Andy Young and the team's compensation Round B selection in next year's draft. Goldy is a six-time National League All-Star and is a premiere power-hitting first baseman that will certainly hit in […]

Still No Practice For Kerryon Johnson

Detroit Lions rookie running back Kerryon Johnson (knee) continues to sit out of practice on Wednesday. Johnson is dealing with a multi-week injury and hasn't seen the field since Nov. 18. In another lost season, Detroit has no reason to rush their star rookie back. LeGarrette Blount will remain a low-end, touchdown-dependent RB2 in standard-scoring […]

Kenny Golladay, Matthew Stafford Limited In Practice

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (quadriceps), quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) and wide receiver Brandon Powell (calf) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Golladay and Stafford should be fine to play in Week 14 against the Cardinals, while Powell has a chance to return after sitting out last Sunday. Golladay is the No. 1 […]

Josh Adams Limited To Start Week

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Josh Adams (shoulder) was limited in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Adams had a hip injury last weekend but played through it and should be fine for Week 14 in an important divisional showdown with the Cowboys. He's had at least 20 touches in the last two games, but […]

Deshaun Watson, Keke Coutee Limited

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) and rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Watson, but he should be fine to suit up in Week 14 against the Colts, where he'll be a low-end QB1. Watson hasn't thrown the ball much in recent weeks […]

Evan Engram, Sterling Shepard Limited Wednesday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) and wide receiver Sterling Shepard (rib) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Engram hasn't played since Nov. 18 but appears on track to return against the Redskins this Sunday. There's a chance his snaps will be limited, making him more of a high-end TE2 if he […]

Eric Ebron, T.Y. Hilton Sit Out Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (back, illness) and wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (shoulder) both sat out of practice on Wednesday. Ebron continues to fight and play through injuries and will remain a high-end TE1 as long as he's active. He had a season-high 10 catches on 16 targets for 81 yards in the Week […]

Mo Alie-Cox Day-To-Day

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said tight end Mo Alie-Cox (calf) is day-to-day entering Week 14 against the Texans after missing the last two games. He did not practice once again on Wednesday. Alie-Cox is the team's strongest blocking tight end now that Jack Doyle is on Injured Reserve, so he'll have little fantasy […]

Julio Jones Sits Out Wednesday's Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (foot) did not practice on Wednesday, but head coach Dan Quinn didn't indicate any concern about Jones' status entering Week 14 against the Packers. The team's No. 1 wideout had a season-low two catches for only 18 yards against the tough Ravens defense in Week 13. He left the […]

Sam Darnold Returns To Full Practice

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) returned to a full practice on Wednesday. Darnold has been out since Nov. 4 but appears to be on track to return to face the Bills in Week 14, barring any setbacks later this week in practice. The rookie has been mostly down in his first NFL […]

Isaiah Crowell Misses Practice Wednesday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) missed practice with a toe injury on Wednesday. It's unknown if this injury will keep Crowell out for Week 14 against the Bills, so we'll have to see if he returns to practice later this week. He's had a few big games this season but is mainly […]

Jaylen Samuels Says He'll Start Against Raiders

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Jaylen Samuels said he will start in Week 14 against the Raiders, but that he and Stevan Ridley will split time in the backfield without James Conner (ankle). Head coach Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday that the team will use a committee approach with Conner out, and this confirms that. […]

Royals Agree With Chris Owings

The Kansas City Royals agreed on a one-year deal with free-agent infielder/outfielder Chris Owings on Wednesday, according to sources. Owings had a miserable year in 2018, hitting .206/.272/.302 with four home runs, 22 RBI and 11 steals in 106 games. But he managed 12 homers in 2017 in just 97 games and stole a season-high […]

Joe Mixon Lands On Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (foot) is on the Week 14 injury report and was limited in practice on Wednesday. It's an injury that shouldn't keep him out against the Chargers, but it's worth watching. Mixon remains the team's clear lead back, but his carries have been down in recent weeks with the team […]

Braves Planning To Hit Josh Donaldson Second In Order

The Atlanta Braves are currently planning to hit third baseman Josh Donaldson in the second spot in the batting order in 2019, with first baseman Freddie Freeman hitting third and outfielder Ronald Acuna either leadoff or cleanup. Second baseman Ozzie Albies and center fielder Ender Inciarte are options for the leadoff spot as well. Donaldson […]
