No Practice For Neal Sterling On Monday

New York Mets tight end Neal Sterling (concussion) did not practice on Monday. Sterling didn't have a catch in the Week 2 loss to the Dolphins and has three catches for 27 yards on the season. On a short week, Sterling may be unlikely to play against the Browns this Thursday. New York's tight end […]

Browns Sign Rod Streater

The Cleveland Browns signed free-agent wide receiver Rod Streater on Monday. The sixth-year pro didn't play at all last season but had 18 catches for 191 yards and two touchdowns in 2016 with the 49ers. He'll provide depth behind Jarvis Landry, rookie Antonio Callaway and Rashard Higgins after the team traded Josh Gordon to the […]

Redskins Signing Breshad Perriman

The Washington Redskins are signing free-agent wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Monday, according to a source. Perriman proved to be a first-round bust after catching 43 passes for 576 yards and three touchdowns after being taken in the 2015 draft for the Ravens. He's unlikely to become fantasy relevant and will be buried on Washington's […]

Francisco Cervelli Out With Flu-Like Symptoms

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Francisco Cervelli (illness) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Monday with flu-like symptoms. Jacob Stallings is replacing him behind the plate and is batting eighth against Royals starter Brad Keller. Stallings is a desperation catching option in DFS on Monday.

Joey Gallo Scratched From Lineup Monday

Texas Rangers outfielder Joey Gallo (toe) was scratched from the starting lineup on Monday with a bruised right toe after he fouled a ball off his foot in San Diego. Willie Calhoun will replace him in left field and hit sixth against Rays starter Tyler Glasnow. Calhoun isn't a bad DFS choice as a cheaper […]

James Paxton Unsure When He'll Rejoin Rotation

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher James Paxton (illness), who has been battling a combination of the flu and pneumonia, is with the team in Houston but is unsure when he will rejoin the rotation. Paxton is running out of time before the end of the regular season, but he might be able to make one more […]

Mitch Garver Still Dealing With Concussion Symptoms

Minnesota Twins catcher Mitch Garver (head) is still dealing with concussion symptoms after taking a foul tip off his mask last Wednesday. Garver has no timetable for a return, and he may not play again this year with only a week-plus left. Willians Astudillo and Chris Gimenez will continue to split time behind the plate […]

Chance Sisco Still In Concussion Protocol

Baltimore Orioles catcher Chance Sisco (head) remains in the concussion protocol and is unavailable to play on Monday. Sisco took a foul tip off his mask on Sunday and also suffered a laceration on his chin. It's unknown when he might be able to return to the lineup, but the O's won't take any chances […]

Miguel Sano Could Return Tuesday

Minnesota Twins third baseman Miguel Sano (knee) is available off the bench on Monday and could start at third base on Tuesday, according to manager Paul Molitor. Sano hasn't played since Sept. 4. He's been a massive fantasy disappointment in 2018, hitting .202/.285/.405 with 13 home runs and 41 RBI after slugging a career-high 28 […]

Touki Toussaint To Start Wednesday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Touki Toussaint will make the start on Wednesday against the Cardinals. Toussaint is a rotation fixture for the future, but he's struggled in his limited action at the big league level in his rookie season, posting a 4.67 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 15 strikeouts in 17 1/3 innings over four outings […]

Jose Urena Will Make Next Start

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jose Urena (hand) is fine after leaving his start on Sunday with a hand cramp, according to head coach Don Mattingly. Urena won't miss any time and will be able to make his next start against the Reds this weekend. The right-hander has been solid in his very three starts, going […]

Patriots Cutting Corey Coleman

The New England Patriots are cutting wide receiver Corey Coleman on Monday in order to make room for Josh Gordon on the roster, according to a source. The Patriots released one former Brown after trading for a Brown. Coleman has now been traded and released from two teams in 2018 after proving to be a […]

Michael Fulmer Has Meniscus Damage

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Michael Fulmer's (knee) MRI exam showed meniscus damage. He will get a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews before his next move is determined. Either way, we don't expect Fulmer to pitch again in 2018. The right-hander will finish with a disappointing 3-12 record, 4.69 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 110 strikeouts […]

Patriots Officially Trade For Josh Gordon

The New England Patriots acquired wide receiver Josh Gordon from the Cleveland Browns on Monday in exchange for a fifth-round pick, according to sources. If Gordon isn't active for 10 games, the Patriots will receive a late-round pick from the Browns. While Gordon is still an off-the-field risk, his upside is deniable, and his fantasy […]

David Johnson To Be Used More As Receiver

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said running back David Johnson will be used more out of the slot moving forward in order to utilize him in space. About time. It took the Cardinals being outscored 58-6 in the first two weeks Wilks and the coaching staff to change things up. Johnson attempted 22 rushes […]

Patriots Close To Landing Josh Gordon

The New England Patriots are getting close to trading for Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon, according to a source. Gordon wore out his welcome in Cleveland and was believed to be on the verge of relapse from drug and alcohol problems last Saturday before the team decided to trade or release him. However, when […]

Phillip Gaines Has Dislocated Elbow

Buffalo Bills cornerback Phillip Gaines (elbow) suffered a dislocated elbow in the Week 2 loss to the Chargers, but he could still play in Week 3 against the Vikings, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Buffalo's secondary is already weak, so losing Gaines for any amount of time would be bad news. Even if Gaines […]

Falcons Unsure When Devonta Freeman Will Return

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said he's not sure on a timetable for when running back Devonta Freeman (knee) will return. Freeman sat out in Week 2 and is expected to miss two to three more weeks, but it could be even more. Tevin Coleman ran for over 100 yards against Carolina and should […]

Taylor Lewan Must Still Pass Concussion Protocol

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that left tackle Taylor Lewan (concussion) is making progress, but he must still pass the concussion protocol in order to practice this week. The Titans are one of the most beat up teams on the offensive line, and starting quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) sat over Blaine Gabbert in […]

Carson Wentz Won't Be Held Back

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) will not be limited at all in his season debut in Week 3 against the Colts. "He's going to be prepared mentally, now it's a matter of the physical part taking over," Pederson said. "... In my mind, he's cleared, he's cleared. No need […]

Evan Phillips Starting On Monday

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Evan Phillips will make the "start" against the Blue Jays on Monday. This will be a bullpen game for Baltimore, with Phillips probably going only an inning to two at the most. The right-hander has a 13.03 ERA, 2.07 WHIP and six strikeouts in eight relief outings for the Orioles this […]

Aaron Rodgers Didn't Further Damage His Knee

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) didn't do any further damage to his knee by playing in Week 2 against the Vikings, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. McCarthy said Rodgers is "obviously sore, but that's to be expected. But he's a warrior, what he gave us yesterday was outstanding. I don't have a […]

Aroldis Chapman Throws Successful Sim Game

New York Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman (knee) threw a successful 22-pitch simulated game on Monday. That should be his last step before he returns to the team's bullpen this week. Chapman could be immediately put back in the ninth-inning closer role and he should be back in your lineups when he's activated from the disabled […]

Aaron Judge Takes Simulated At-Bats

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (wrist) had 11 live at-bats on Monday off pitchers A.J. Cole, Chance Adams and Phillip Diehl. He was activated from the disabled list last Friday but has yet to hit in a game. That could happen this week, which means fantasy owners are getting close to be able to […]

Kenneth Dixon Could Return This Year

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon (knee), who is on Injured Reserve, is a candidate to be designated to return, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Dixon has potential but just cannot seem to stay on the field. With him out for at least another seven weeks, the Ravens will continue to roll with Alex […]

Hayden Hurst Won't Play In Week 3

Baltimore Ravens rookie Hayden Hurst (foot) will not practice this week, which means he'll miss his third straight game, according to head coach John Harbaugh. With Hurst still sidelined, the Ravens should continue to keep rotating Nick Boyle, Maxx Williams and rookie Mark Andrews in. The Ravens have an exploitable matchup with Denver in Week […]

LeSean McCoy Questionable For Week 3

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (rib) is dealing with cracked rib cartilage and is questionable for Week 3 against the Vikings, according to a source. McCoy shouldn't miss more than one game, if that. He's dealt with this injury before and isn't expected to be sidelined for long. Things just keep getting worse for […]

Zane Gonzalez Released By Browns

Cleveland Browns kicker Zane Gonzalez was released on Monday after he missed two field goals and two extra points in the 21-18 loss to the Saints in Week 2. Gonzalez was 2-for-5 on field goals through two weeks. That just isn't going to cut it in the NFL. The Browns will role with undrafted Greg […]

Vikings Signing Aldrick Robinson

The Minnesota Vikings are signing free-agent wide receiver Aldrick Robinson on Monday, according to sources. Robinson is a speedy wideout that had only 19 receptions for 260 yards and two touchdowns in a full season with the Niners last year. He'll provide depth behind Stefon Diggs, Adam Thielen, Laquon Treadwell and Stacy Coley. There's a […]

Marcus Mariota's Status Hasn't Changed

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota's (elbow) status hasn't changed since Friday or Saturday of last week, according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Mariota was active in Week 2 against the Texans but didn't play at all and was dealing with numbness in his fingers last week. It's not looking good for his chances of playing […]
