Cardinals Re-Sign Adam Wainwright

The St. Louis Cardinals agreed to terms on a one-year deal to re-sign starting pitcher Adam Wainwright on Thursday. He will be entering his 15th season with the Cardinals next year, which will match Bob Forsch for the third most as a pitcher for St. Louis. It could be Waino's last season in the bigs, […]

Greg Olsen Practices In Full, Won't Be Held Back

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Thursday, and head coach Ron Rivera said Olsen won't be held back if he plays in Week 6 against the Redskins. All signs point to Olsen returning after fracturing his foot in the season opener. With how weak the tight […]

Matt Kalil On Track To Return Nov. 4

Carolina Panthers left tackle Matt Kalil (knee) said he's on track to resume practicing next week and return on Nov. 4 to face the Buccaneers. His knee is feeling stronger and his rehab from a knee scope has gone well. Kalil is one of the better left tackles in the NFL when healthy, so quarterback […]

Darius Leonard Returns To Practice

Indianapolis Colts rookie linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle) returned to practice along with safeties Malik Hooker (back) and Clayton Geathers (concussion, neck) on Thursday. It's good news for an ailing team all around as they get ready to face the Jets in Week 6. Leonard has burst onto the scene as a star in his first […]

No Eric Ebron On Thursday At Practice

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee, quadriceps, shin) missed practice for the second straight day. It's never a good sign when a player misses the first two practices of the week, so Ebron might be questionable, at best, for Week 6 against the Jets. That could really be a problem with Jack Doyle […]

Jamison Crowder, Paul Richardson Still Out Thursday

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) remain out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It doesn't look good for their chances of suiting up in Week 6 against the Panthers, but they could ease their fantasy owners' minds if they practice on Friday. Washington's passing offense […]

Could Jordan Howard Be A Trade Candidate?

Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard has landed on the rumor mill as the Oct. 30 trade deadline approaches after Tarik Cohen exploded in Week 4. Rumors also swirled about Howard being traded before the draft in April. The Eagles are in need of a running back after Jay Ajayi's season-ending knee injury, but Bears […]

Ameer Abdullah Is Expendable

Detroit Lions running back Ameer Abdullah has become an afterthought in offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter's weekly scheme behind rookie Kerryon Johnson, LeGarrette Blount and Theo Riddick, making him a trade candidate. Abdullah has yet to see a carry this season and was a healthy scratch on game days for the entire month of September. […]

Tevin Coleman Could Be A Trade Candidate

Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman could become a trade candidate if the team doesn't turn things around in the next week or so. Rookie Ito Smith has impressed in limited action so far. Linebacker Vic Beasley could also be a trade candidate, but his 2019 option of $12.810 million could be a road block. […]

Anthony Castonzo Expects To Debut In Week 6

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) continues to be cautious after having multiple setbacks with his injury, but he fully expects to make his season debut in Week 6 against the Jets. He was a full participant in practice on Wednesday for the first time this year. It'd be great for quarterback Andrew Luck […]

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison Practice Thursday

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) were both surprise participants in practice on Thursday and even took part in 11-on-11 drills. They were both originally expected to be in the rehab group off to the side, so this is great news for their statuses for Monday night against […]

Eric Berry, Justin Houston Not Practicing Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) and linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Berry hasn't played yet this year and has no timetable for a return. Houston is one of the team's best pass rushers, so they could be in serious trouble without him on Sunday […]

Sean Lee Takes Part In Individual Drills

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) took part in individual drills during the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday. It's his first work in practice since injuring his hamstring in Week 3 against the Seahawks. Lee is still probably on the wrong side of questionable for Week 6 against the Jaguars, but […]

Nick Senzel Out 4-6 Weeks

Cincinnati Reds third base prospect Nick Senzel (elbow) needs surgery to remove bone spurs in his left elbow, which will keep him out for four to six weeks. It's a setback, as Senzel was hoping to get repetitions in the outfield in the Arizona Fall League, but he is expecting to be 100 percent healthy […]

Jon Gray Wasn't Healthy In 2018

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Jon Gray said he simply wasn't healthy in 2018. "I wasn’t really healthy," Gray told the Denver Post, "My (velocity) was down this year. I was down about 20 pounds this year. I need to get back to 230-235." In an effort to bounce back after posting a disappointing 5.12 ERA, […]

Cubs Haven't Offered Kris Bryant An Extension

Recent reports that the Chicago Cubs offered third baseman Kris Bryant "a massive extension" worth "well north of $200 million" are "simply not true," according to sources. Bryant remains under control through the 2021 season, so there has been no rush on either side to work out a contract extension yet. A left shoulder injury […]

Ross Stripling Had Been Tipping Pitches

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Ross Stripling admitted that he had been tipping his pitches recently. It had to do with his foot positioning while he was in the stretch with men on base. Stripling was an All-Star this year and put up excellent numbers, but he was injured in the second half and struggled upon […]

Trumaine Johnson, Buster Skrine Out Thursday

New York Jets cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) and Buster Skrine (concussion) both sat out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday and appear doubtful to play in Week 6 against the Colts. Johnson is on track to miss his second straight game. If both defensive backs are out, it'll severely weaken New York's […]

Cameron Wake Still Sidelined

Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) remained out of practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Wake sat out last weekend and appears to be on track to missing his second straight game. That would be bad news for the team's pass rush as they look to slow down Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky.

Tre'Davious White Practicing Thursday

Buffalo Bills top cornerback Tre'Davious White (ankle) has returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. White is on track to play in Week 6 against the Texans, where he would be tasked with slowing down elite wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

Caleb Sturgis Injured, Bolts Sign Mike Badgley

With Los Angeles Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis (quadriceps) dealing with a strained quadriceps, the team is signing free-agent kicker Mike Badgley, according to league sources. Sturgis will remain on the roster, but it looks like he'll miss Week 6 against the Browns. You'll need to go in another direction this week if you've been rolling […]

Jaguars Sign Bo Scarbrough

The Jacksonville Jaguars signed free-agent running back Bo Scarbrough to their practice squad on Thursday and released fullback Dimitri Flowers in a corresponding move. With Leonard Fournette (hamstring) potentially missing several more games, the Jags are building their running back depth up. They also added Jamaal Charles and David Williams to the active roster earlier […]

Isaiah Crowell Missing Practice Again

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Crowell is now seriously questionable to play in Week 6 against the Colts after running all over the Broncos last Sunday for 219 yards on the ground. He'll need to at least get in a limited practice on […]

Corey Clement Expected To Lead Backfield On Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement is expected to lead the backfield on Thursday against the Giants with Jay Ajayi (knee) now out for the season. Wendell Smallwood and Josh Adams will also have roles, though. Clement is a physical runner and has improved as a pass catcher and also has return skills on special […]

Devonta Freeman Not Dealing With Long-Term Injury

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) is not believed to be dealing with a long-term injury with his foot after missing three games due to a knee injury suffered in Week 1, according to a source. It doesn't mean he won't sit out in Week 6 against the Buccaneers, but the team doesn't fear […]

Marcus Peters Says He's 100 Percent

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Marcus Peters (calf) suffered a calf injury in Week 3 but didn't miss any games, although he has been beat for big plays in Week 4 and Week 5. Despite that, Peters says he's healthy. "What makes you ask that?" Peters replied to reporters, via the Rams' official website. "No, I […]

T.J. Yeldon The Guy In Week 6

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said running back T.J. Yeldon will be the main running back in Week 6 against the Cowboys with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) missing another game. Recently-signed running backs Jamaal Charles and David Williams will strictly be backups. "T.J. will be a guy that will carry the load for us," Marrone […]

Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison In Rehab Group

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) and wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) are all working with the rehab group on Thursday. Allison is out of the concussion protocol. The one thing we do know is that Rodgers should be fine to play. He'll remain a high-end QB1 in a […]

Lane Johnson Questionable For Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) was added to the injury report on Thursday morning with a high ankle sprain and is listed as questionable for Thursday night against the Giants. Johnson will test his ankle before the game, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Halapoulivaati Vaitai would be the next man up on […]

Demaryius Thomas A Trade Candidate

If the Denver Broncos season continues to spiral downward, wide receiver Demaryius Thomas could be a trade candidate before the Oct. 30 deadline. Thomas is scheduled to make $14 million in 2019, but a contending team desperate for a pass catcher could be willing to take that on. The Tennessee Titans or Dallas Cowboys could […]
