Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks expects that wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) will play in Week 3 against the Bears. “We all know that it’s going to be tough to keep Larry off the field," Wilks said.

David DeCastro Unsure If He'll Play In Week 3
Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro offensive guard David DeCastro (hand), who sat out in Week 2, said it's too early to tell if his broken right hand will heal enough to allow him to play in Week 3 on Monday against the Buccaneers.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown did not show up for meetings on Monday after he was upset on the field and in the locker room during and after the team's Week 2 loss to the Chiefs, according to several team sources.

New York Giants cornerback Eli Apple (groin) suffered a groin injury in Week 2 that will likely keep him out this weekend against the Texans. B.W.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is lowering the expectations of wide receiver Josh Gordon, who the Patriots acquired via a trade on Monday. "You know, I hate to make projections and expectations. That's not fair," Brady told Jim Gray on Westwood One on Monday night. "I've never met Josh personally, just like I hadn't […]

Chris Carson Tires Out In Second Half
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said running back Chris Carson was "gassed" from playing special teams in Monday night's loss to the Bears, which is why he didn't touch the ball at all on offense in the second half. The team also wanted to see what rookie Rashaad Penny could do, too. It seems […]

Trevor Story Injures Elbow In Loss To Dodgers
Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) left the game early with right elbow soreness on Monday and will be re-evaluated on Tuesday. The fact that Story left in the middle of his at-bat can't be a good sign, but we'll wait to find out more about his injury on Tuesday. Story has been one of […]

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Asdrubal Cabrera (calf) suffered a Grade 1 strain of his left calf on Monday and will be evaluated on Tuesday.

Eddie Rosario Aggravates Quad Injury
Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario (quadriceps) aggravated his quad injury on Monday and was forced from the game.

Pittsburgh Pirates infielder/outfielder Adam Frazier (knee) left the game early with a knee injury on Monday.

Greg Zuerlein To Miss A Few Weeks
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) will be out "at least a few weeks." Zuerlein has one of the strongest legs in the game and kicks for one of the best offenses in the league, so his absence will be felt by the Rams and his fantasy owners. […]

Matt Andriese To Start Tuesday
Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Matt Andriese will start against the Cubs on Tuesday. Andriese has made four starts this year, but all four came with the Rays, and he has not started a game since July 4. That means that Andriese probably won't stay in this game for more than a few innings. He has a […]

Aaron Judge Won't Return To Lineup Tuesday
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (wrist) had no issues after taking part in a simulated game on Monday, but he won't return to the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Red Sox.

Redskins Signing Michael Floyd
The Washington Redskins are signing free-agent wide receiver Michael Floyd on Monday, according to a source. Washington clearly isn't happy with the production they are getting from Jamison Crowder, Josh Doctson and Paul Richardson, so they are bringing in some competition/depth. They also added former first-rounder Breshad Perriman on Monday. Floyd didn't make final cuts […]

Broncos Sticking With Hot Hand In Backfield
Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph said he isn't considering starting rookie running back Phillip Lindsay after he has impressed in the first two weeks. “No, because it doesn’t matter. Our deal with that room is more of gameplan. It’s what they do best. It’s more of who has the hot hand that day," Joseph […]

Zane Gonzalez Dealt With Groin Injury
Former Cleveland Browns kicker Zane Gonzalez (groin) had been kicking with a groin injury that required an MRI exam on Monday, according to a source.

Jarvis Landry, Seth DeValve On Injury Report
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) and tight end Seth DeValve (hamstring) were on the injury report for Week 3 on Monday. DeValve didn't practice, while Landry was limited. The Browns didn't actually conduct a practice, so the report was an estimation. Landry's knee issue isn't believed to be serious and shouldn't keep him […]

Shaquill Griffin Active On Monday
Seattle Seahawks cornerback Shaquill Griffin (thigh) is active for Week 2 against the Bears on Monday night. However, cornerback Tre Flowers (hamstring) and linebackers Bobby Wagner (groin) and K.J. Wright (knee) are out. Seattle's defense was already weak coming into this game, and they are very vulnerable all over, which is great news for Bears […]

Bud Norris Unavailable On Monday
St. Louis Cardinals relief pitcher Bud Norris (finger) is unavailable out of the bullpen on Monday so that he can let the skin on his right middle finger heal. Norris was the closer for most of the season, but he recently lost his job while going through a rough patch while dealing with a hip […]

Tomas Nido Has Earned More Starts
New York Mets manager Mickey Callaway said catcher Tomas Nido has earned more starts down the stretch. Nido is more of a defense-first backstop and is slashing only .178/.208/.260 with a home run and eight RBI in 73 at-bats for the Mets in 2018. He can continue being ignored in fantasy leagues.

Anthony Alford Called Up Monday
The Toronto Blue Jays called up outfield prospect Anthony Alford from the minors on Monday. The team's No. 5 prospect hit just .238/.314/.339 with five home runs, 36 RBI and 17 steals between Single-A Dunedin and Triple-A Buffalo in the minors this year. It's unlikely he'll see enough playing time down the stretch to be […]

Brandon Drury Doubtful To Return This Year
Toronto Blue Jays infielder Brandon Drury (hand) is "doubtful" to return before the end of the season despite ditching his removable brace. He will begin hitting and fielding in the near future, and the Blue Jays are hoping to make his offseason a normal one. It's been a lost season for Drury, who has played […]

Larry Fitzgerald Will Be Monitored In Practice
Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said that wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) will be monitored in practice this week, but Wilks knows that Fitzgerald wants to play in Week 3 against the Bears.
