Mookie Betts Wins AL MVP

Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts was named the 2018 American League Most Valuable Player on Thursday. He helped the Red Sox win a franchise-record 108 regular season games and the World Series title by beating out Angels outfielder Mike Trout and Indians infielder Jose Ramirez. Betts led the majors with a .346 batting average, […]

Phil Dawson Back At Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals kicker Phil Dawson (hip) was limited in practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. The limited practice means he should be able to play in Week 11 against the Raiders. The 43-year-old isn't a fantasy option, even in a good matchup, though. Dawson has made just four of six field-goal tries on […]

Chad Williams Remains Out

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. He hasn't played since Oct. 28 and is unlikely to return in Week 11 against the Raiders. Williams has been a non-factor this year in Arizona's putrid offense with only 11 grabs on 31 targets for 113 yards and […]

Jordy Nelson, Martavis Bryant Not Practicing

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Jordy Nelson (knee) and Martavis Bryant (knee) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Both players are unlikely to suit up against the Cardinals on Sunday. As a result, the tanking Raiders could be left with Brandon LaFell, Seth Roberts and Dwayne Harris as their top three wideouts. […]

Christian Yelich Wins NL MVP

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich was named the 2018 National League Most Valuable Player on Thursday. He led the team to an NL-best 96 wins and a trip to the playoffs for the first time since 2011 while beating out Cubs second baseman Javier Baez and Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado. Yelich hit .367 with […]

Antonio Gates Hasn't Practiced This Week

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Antonio Gates (knee) missed practice on Thursday for the second day in a row. It doesn't look good for Gates' status in Week 11 against the Broncos, but he could have a chance at playing if he practices on Friday. The 38-year-old has been a non-factor all year for fantasy […]

Keenan Allen, Mike Williams Added To Injury Report

Los Angeles Chargers wide receivers Keenan Allen (hip, finger) and Mike Williams (groin) were both added to the Week 11 injury report and were limited in practice on Thursday. Both players aren't in serious danger of sitting out against Denver this Sunday, but they are worth monitoring. Allen will remain in play as a WR2, […]

Patrick Mahomes Listed On Injury Report

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (foot) is listed on the Week 11 injury report but is practicing in full on Thursday. Mahomes isn't in any danger of missing the Monday night showdown with the one-loss Rams, but it's something to keep an eye on as he nears the end of his first full season […]

D'Onta Foreman Not A Lock To Play This Year

Although Houston Texans running back D'Onta Foreman (Achilles) said he's "confident" he'll play again this year, head coach Bill O'Brien isn't so certain. "Can he carry the ball more than two times in a row without having to go get a drink of water?" O'Brien said. "What type of shape is he in?" Foreman hasn't […]

Jamison Crowder, Chris Thompson Miss Practice

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) and running back Chris Thompson (ribs) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Both players have missed multiple games this year, and Crowder has been out for well over a month with no sign of a return. With Paul Richardson […]

Matt Bryant Practices In Full

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) put in a full practice on Thursday. Barring any setbacks, it looks like Bryant will be back in action for the first time since he aggravated his hamstring on Oct. 14 this Sunday against the Cowboys. The ageless wonder has made all nine of his field-goal tries this year […]

Trevor Davis Activated From Injured Reserve

The Green Bay Packers activated wide receiver Trevor Davis (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Thursday, and he may help in the return game for the rest of the season. The 25-year-old has yet to play this year and has only eight receptions on 13 targets for 94 yards and a touchdown in 27 games in […]

Taywan Taylor Sitting Out Again Thursday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Taywan Taylor (foot) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Taylor sat out in Week 10 and doesn't look close to returning after injuring himself in Week 9. He wasn't a fantasy factor to begin with and remains on the waiver wire. In his absence, Corey Davis […]

Joey Bosa Unsure If He'll Play In Week 11

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot), who returned to a limited practice on Wednesday, is unsure if he'll make his season debut in Week 11 against the Broncos. "It’s really not decided yet. We’re continuing with the plan, and that’s to practice this week. We’ll assess it and see how it feels on […]

Mike Wallace No Longer In Walking Boot

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mike Wallace (leg) said he had his walking boot removed two days ago, but he isn't running yet. There remains no timetable for his return. Wallace broke his fibula earlier this year and is no lock to return to the Eagles. Even if he does, it's highly unlikely that he'll be […]

Dustin Hopkins Remains Absent Thursday

Washington Redskins kicker Dustin Hopkins (groin) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Head coach Jay Gruden said the big test will come on Friday, when Hopkins typically kicks. It's looking increasingly unlikely that Hopkins will play in Week 11 against the Texans, but we won't know until Friday. If he sits out, […]

Joe Mixon Limited In Practice Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday after not being on the injury report on Wednesday. It's a little concerning after Mixon missed time with a knee sprain earlier this year, but he should be able to play in Week 11 in a big divisional matchup with the Ravens. […]

Joe Flacco, Lamar Jackson Out Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterbacks Joe Flacco (hip) and rookie Lamar Jackson (illness) were both absent at practice on Thursday. Robert Griffin III was the only quarterback practicing. Flacco has missed two practices this week and appears to be on the wrong side of questionable for a big divisional matchup against the Bengals on Sunday. This could […]

Chris Godwin Remains Sidelined Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) remained out of practice for the second straight day Thursday. It's not looking good for Godwin's availability in a nice matchup in Week 11 against the Giants. It's a shame, too, as Godwin is looking to improve on his seven-catch, 103-yard performance last Sunday. If he's forced […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Homers In Winter Ball

San Diego Padres infield prospect Fernando Tatis Jr. (thumb), who suffered an avulsion fracture in his left thumb in the minor leagues in July, hit a home run in his first at-bat in winter ball for Estrella in the Dominican Republic. The 19-year-old shortstop is ranked as the No. 2 prospect in all of baseball […]

Jonathan Stewart Resumes Practicing

New York Giants running back Jonathan Stewart (foot) has resumed practicing, which means the Giants can activate him from Injured Reserve within the next 21 days. The 31-year-old averaged just 2.8 yards per carry on six attempts in three games before being injured earlier this year. If he does return for the stretch run, J-Stew […]

Sammy Watkins Will Practice Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) will practice on Thursday. Watkins appears to be on track to return for the Monday night showdown against the Rams after being inactive in Week 10. In a game that is projected to be a shootout with the two best offenses […]

Shawn Kelley Wants To Keep Playing

Oakland Athletics free-agent relief pitcher Shawn Kelley has decided against retiring and wants to play a few more years, according to his agent, Mike McCann. The 34-year-old right-hander posted a nice 2.16 ERA in 19 outings with the A's after coming over on a waiver claim from the Nationals. Overall, Kelley had a 2.94 ERA, […]

A's Interested In Reunion With Kurt Suzuki

The Oakland Athletics are interested in signing free-agent catcher Kurt Suzuki, as their primary catcher in 2018, Jonathan Lucroy, is also a free agent. The 35-year-old Suzuki debuted with Oakland in 2007 and spent five seasons with them until being traded to the Nationals in 2012. He was an All-Star in 2014 with Minnesota and […]

Marvin Jones, Michael Roberts Miss Practice Again

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones (knee) and tight end Michael Roberts (shoulder) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's not a good sign for either player, but they could still play if they get in a practice on Friday. Jones' owners must formulate a backup plan just in case he […]

Matt Bryant To Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons kicker Matt Bryant (hamstring) will kick in practice on Thursday. Bryant hasn't been active in a game since Oct. 14, but he's made all nine of his field goals and 16 of 17 extra points this year. When healthy, the 43-year-old is one of the better fantasy options. If he can't go again […]

Dalvin Cook Won't Be Limited

Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator John DeFilippo said that running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is a full-go heading into Week 11 against the Bears on Sunday night. Cook ran the ball 10 times for 89 yards and caught four passes for 20 yards in Week 9 and had the bye week to rest up further, so […]

K.J. Wright Doubtful For Thursday Night

Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Packers. Wright wants to make sure he's 100 percent healthy for the stretch run of the season. He had arthroscopic knee surgery in the last week of August and missed the first six games of the season. Wright has played […]

Ty Montgomery's Playing Time Depends On Practice

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said how much running back Ty Montgomery plays in his team debut in Week 11 against the Bengals depends on what he shows in practice this week. Montgomery was a healthy scratch in Week 9 and the team was off in Week 10. “I’m very confident he could go […]

Eric Ebron Seeing Snap Count Plummet

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron is having an excellent season in his first year with the Colts, ranking first on the team in catches (39), yards (463) and touchdowns (10). His 10 touchdowns ties him for sixth among all players in the NFL. He caught two touchdowns and ran one in during the Week […]
