Tyrod Taylor Still Not Practicing

Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor (concussion) was not back at practice on Wednesday. If he's not cleared in time for Week 4 against the Raiders, the Browns will go with Drew Stanton as the backup to rookie Baker Mayfield. Taylor has lost the starting job to the exciting Mayfield after the rookie led a second-half […]

Jimmy Graham Not At Practice Wednesday

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (undisclosed) did not practice on Wednesday due to an undisclosed injury. It's an ominous sign, but we'd like to get more information on his status before jumping to conclusions. While Graham has still yet to find the end zone in his first season with Green Bay, he does […]

A.J. Green, Joe Mixon Work Off To The Side

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (groin) and running back Joe Mixon (knee) were both off to the side working with the rehab group in practice on Wednesday. The team is optimistic that Green will suit up in Week 4 in an attackable matchup against a beat up Falcons secondary. If he plays, he'll be […]

No Practice For Ezekiel Ansah Wednesday

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Ansah has missed the team's last two games, and he isn't off to a good start this week. The oft-injured defensive lineman is Detroit's main source for a pass rush, so their defense could be in trouble if he continues to sit out. […]

Trey Flowers, Patrick Chung Return To Practice

New England Patriots defensive end Trey Flowers (concussion) and safety Patrick Chung (concussion) both returned to practice on Wednesday. It's a great sign for their availability in Week 4 against the Dolphins after they both were inactive in the Sunday night loss to the Lions where their absences were clearly felt. If both defenders were […]

Dansby Swanson Returns To Atlanta

Atlanta Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson (hand, wrist) returned to Atlanta on Wednesday to be examined by head team physician Dr. Gary Lourie. Swanson injured himself on a swing on Tuesday, and the Braves are concerned it could be a significant injury like a similar one that kept him out for around two weeks earlier this […]

Hayden Hurst Back On Practice Field

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst (foot), who hasn't played yet this year after having foot surgery last month, returned to practice on Wednesday. It doesn't mean that Hurst will make his NFL debut in Week 4 against the Steelers, but it's progress nonetheless. Fellow rookie Mark Andrews has stood out as the most […]

LeSean McCoy To Be Limited

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (ribs) will be limited in practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Sean McDermott. McCoy sat out of the Week 3 win against the Vikings, and he could be questionable yet again in Week 4 against the Packers. McCoy hasn't done much for his fantasy owners behind a bad […]

Eduardo Nunez To Return To Action This Weekend

Boston Red Sox infielder Eduardo Nunez (hamstring) will serve as the designated hitter on Friday and will play third base on Sunday. Nunez has been out since Sept. 19, but the Red Sox want to get him back in there before the playoffs start next week. Nunez hasn't been as good this year as he […]

C.J. Mosley Says He's Day-To-Day

Baltimore Ravens linebacker C.J. Mosley (knee) said he feels better than last week and considers himself "day-to-day" with a knee bruise. Mosley practiced once last week before being inactive in Week 3 against the Broncos. His return would be a big boost to an already strong Ravens defensive unit. They could really use the boost […]

Carlos Correa Back In Lineup Wednesday

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (back) is serving as the designated hitter and batting third on Wednesday against Blue Jays starter Sean Reid-Foley. Correa has been out for a week with lingering back issues. Since his return from the disabled list on Aug. 10, Correa has hit just .174 with a home run and 13 […]

Chance Sisco Could Return This Weekend

Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter is hoping that catcher Chance Sisco (concussion) can return from the concussion protocol this weekend. Sisco has been a disaster at the plate in 63 games for the Orioles this year, hitting .181/.288/.269 with two homers and 16 RBI. He won't be of much help to fantasy owners if he […]

Rex Burkhead Going On Injured Reserve

The New England Patriots will place running back Rex Burkhead (neck) on the Injured Reserve on Wednesday after he injured his neck in the Week 3 loss to the Lions, according to a league source. Rookie linebacker Ja'Whaun Bentley will also go on IR with an unknown injury. It's unknown if Burkhead will be able […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Could Get A Start This Weekend

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez will pitch an inning out of the bullpen either Wednesday or Friday. But if he doesn't, he could make a start over the weekend, with Saturday being most likely. E-Rod isn't a lock to be in the postseason bullpen yet, but it looks like that will be the […]

Evan Engram To Miss 2-4 Weeks

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (knee) is expected to miss two to four weeks with an MCL sprain, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Rhett Ellison should be the top tight end with Engram gone. He caught a touchdown after replacing Engram in Week 3, but he's more of a blocking tight end […]

Aaron Rodgers To Sit Out Wednesday

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) will sit out of practice on Wednesday to rest his left knee. After spraining his knee in the season opener, Rodgers has only practiced the day before games on Saturday. This could become a regular occurrence throughout the season for the star quarterback. As long as he's on […]

Devonta Freeman, Takkarist McKinley To Return To Practice

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said defensive end Takkarist McKinley (groin) and running back Devonta Freeman (knee) will return to practice this week. "Definitely Takk is going to practice some today," Quinn told "The Morning Show with John and Hugh" on Wednesday morning. "Devonta and Derrick are definitely trending up, they'll be able to […]

Alshon Jeffery Cleared For Contact

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) has been cleared for contact on Wednesday, but a final determination on Jeffery's status for Week 4 against the Titans will be made later in the week. Jeffery has yet to play in a game this year, but his return will be needed […]

Chris Conte Played Through Torn PCL

Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Chris Conte (knee) played through a torn PCL in his knee on Monday night, according to a source. Conte said he "gutted it out and honestly shouldn't have played." He will be out the next six weeks. Conte was embarrassed on a ferocious stiff arm from Steelers tight end Vance McDonald […]

Bengals Optimistic About A.J. Green

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis is very optimistic about wide receiver A.J. Green (groin) playing in Week 4 against the Falcons. Green's injury is an aggravation of a college injury, and anti-inflammatory medication has cleared it up. Green should bounce back in a big way this weekend if he's active against a Falcons secondary […]

Patrick Robinson Needs Surgery

New Orleans Saints cornerback Patrick Robinson (ankle) will need surgery to fix torn ligaments in his ankle. Robinson will be put on Injured Reserve and seems unlikely to be able to return this season. That puts an even bigger strain on a secondary that was already getting roasted regularly through the first three weeks. New […]

Patriots Re-Signing Kenjon Barner

The New England Patriots have re-signed Kenjon Barner on Wednesday. With Rex Burkhead (neck) going on Injured Reserve, the Pats need more running back depth, which Barner will provide. James White and rookie Sony Michel will now split the backfield duties and are now much more attractive in fantasy starting lineups, beginning in Week 4 […]

A.J. Derby Not Practicing Wednesday

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) is not practicing on Wednesday after injuring his foot in Week 3 against the Raiders. It's not a good sign for his availability this weekend against the Patriots. Derby has just two catches on three targets for 35 yards and a touchdown through two weeks, so he hasn't […]

T.J. Yeldon Unlikely To Practice Wednesday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is unlikely to practice on Wednesday. Yeldon started and played through his ankle injury last weekend with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) inactive for a second straight week. It's looking more and more likely that Fournette will make his return against the Jets this Sunday, so Yeldon would go back […]

Leonard Fournette, Austin Seferian-Jenkins Expected To Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring), tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) and defensive end Calais Campbell (ankle) are all expected to practice on Wednesday. Fournette has missed the last two games but is trending in the right direction and should be able to suit up in Week 4 against the Jets this weekend. If […]

Josh McDaniels Not Worried About Josh Gordon

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels doesn't think there will be issues with wide receiver Josh Gordon learning the offense after being acquired via trade last week. "I'm not worried at all about Josh's ability to pick up our system," McDaniels told reporters. "He's already demonstrated an ability to do that. I think he'll […]

Blue Jays Parting Ways With John Gibbons Wednesday

The Toronto Blue Jays will announce that they are parting ways with manager John Gibbons on Wednesday, according to multiple industry sources. We have known this for weeks, so it's just official confirmation from the team. Gibbons had two separate stints as the manager in Toronto -- first from 2004 to 2008 and again from […]

Lou Trivino Dealing With Neck Issue

Oakland Athletics manager Bob Melvin said relief pitcher Lou Trivino (neck) was unavailable due to a neck issue on Tuesday. He received treatment and will be re-evaluated on Wednesday. Trivino has been a key bullpen piece for the A's all year, but he has struggled of late, likely because of his neck issue. The right-hander […]

Hunter Pence To Lead Off To Close Out The Season

San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy said outfielder Hunter Pence will hit leadoff for the final four games of the regular season. Pence homered and scored three runs in the extra-inning win over the Padres on Tuesday and has hit .255 with two homers and five RBI in 17 games this month. On the season, […]

X-Rays Negative On Kris Bryant

X-rays turned up negative on Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant (wrist) after he was forced to leave the game early on Tuesday after getting hit by a pitch. However, he will not play on Wednesday. While Bryant severely disappointed his fantasy owners this year due to a shoulder injury mostly, and he won't be […]
