D.J. Chark Out Against Colts

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver D.J. Chark (quadriceps) missed practice all week and is out in Week 13 against the Colts. Chark only has 14 catches for 174 yards in his rookie season and hasn't been a factor in redraft leagues. He's only a stash candidate in dynasty formats. In his absence, Keelan Cole could […]

Marlon Mack, Chester Rogers Active

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (concussion), wide receiver Chester Rogers (groin) and tight end Erik Swoope (knee) are all active for Week 13 against the Jaguars.

Charles Clay Returns In Week 13

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay (hamstring) is active in Week 13 against the Dolphins. Quarterback Derek Anderson (concussion) is out, while receivers Ray-Ray McCloud and tight end Logan Thomas are healthy scratches. Clay hasn't played since Nov. 4 and has just 19 catches on the year for 169 yards and no touchdowns, so he's […]

Devin Funchess Playing Against Tampa

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Devin Funchess (back) is active for Week 13 against the Buccaneers. Funchess is expected to play limited snaps in his return, so he's a risky WR4/flex, even against one of the league's worst defenses. Rookie D.J. Moore should be the primary receiver and has a lot of upside on Sunday, as […]

Joe Flacco Inactive In Week 13

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) is inactive for Week 13 against the Falcons. It's expected after he was designated as doubtful to play. Rookie Lamar Jackson will get another start and has QB1 upside due to his scrambling ability in a fine matchup. If Jackson leads Baltimore to another win, the coaching staff will […]

Gus Edwards Active Against Falcons

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (ankle) is active in Week 13 against the Falcons. Edwards will once again be the team's primary back after posting back-to-back 100-yard efforts on the ground the last two weeks. In a pristine matchup and with Alex Collins on Injured Reserve, Edwards has RB2 upside. Ty Montgomery should continue […]

Marvin Lewis' Future In Doubt

The status of Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis heading into the 2019 season is in doubt. The Bengals aren't committed to Lewis beyond this season, as he's believed to have signed a one-year deal with an option for the 2019 season last year. Lewis could move to the front office and have Hue Jackson […]

Bears Hoping Mitch Trubisky Returns Next Week

The Chicago Bears are hopeful that quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) will return to face the Rams in Week 14. Trubisky will miss another game in Week 13 against the Giants, with Chase Daniel making his second straight start. Daniel is a low-end QB2 for those desperate in two-QB leagues. Trubisky has improved in his second […]

Josh Adams On Track For Monday Night

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Josh Adams (hip) is on track to play on Monday night against the Redskins despite tweaking his hip in practice on Saturday. Adams is listed as questionable to play, but you can leave him in your lineups as the team's expected lead ball carrier with RB2 upside. Corey Clement, Wendell […]

Melvin Gordon Could Return In Week 14

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (knee), who is out in Week 13, could return as early as Week 14 against the Bengals, according to sources. "It won't be long now," one source said.

The New York Jets are fully committed to making sure rookie quarterback Sam Darnold (foot) is 100 percent healthy when he returns, so sources are saying that the team plans to start Josh McCown again in Week 13 against the Titans. Darnold may do some work in pregame activities, but McCown is the likely starter. […]

Marlon Mack Expected To Play Against Jaguars

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (concussion), who is questionable for Week 13 against the Jaguars, is expected to play, according to a source.

Kareem Hunt Facing Six-Game Suspension For Next Year

Free-agent running back Kareem Hunt is expected to face a six-game suspension heading into the 2019 season.

Mariners Showing Interest In J.P. Crawford

The Seattle Mariners have shown interest in Philadelphia Phillies shortstop J.P. Crawford as a return piece in a possible deal involving shortstop Jean Segura, according to sources.

C.J. Prosise's Season Is Over

The Seattle Seahawks placed running back C.J. Prosise (abdomen) on Injured Reserve on Saturday, ending his season.

He's still only […]

Kumerow will give the Packers receiver depth with Randall Cobb still ailing. He […]

Martavis Bryant Downgraded To Doubtful

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Martavis Bryant (knee) has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful for Week 13 against the Chiefs. Bryant hasn't practiced in three weeks and has no timetable for a return. Rookie Marcell Ateman has been used a lot more often in recent weeks and has the most upside out of Jordy Nelson […]

Chris Thompson Taken Off Injury Report

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (rib) practiced in full this week and was taken off the final Week 13 injury report for Monday night against the Eagles.

Jordan Reed, Jamison Crowder Questionable

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (back) and wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) are both questionable for Monday night against the Eagles.

Josh Adams, Darren Sproles Questionable

Philadelphia Eagles running backs Josh Adams (hip) and Darren Sproles (hamstring) are both questionable for Monday night against the Redskins.

Nick Senzel Could Play Center Field In 2019

Cincinnati Reds third base prospect Nick Senzel is a candidate to play center field in 2019 after the team non-tendered Billy Hamilton on Friday, making him a free agent. Senzel is the team's top prospect and No. 6 overall in baseball, but he's been in infielder his entire college and professional career so far. Scott […]

Royals Not Willing To Trade Salvador Perez

The Kansas City Royals are not willing to trade catcher Salvador Perez, and their asking price "is so exorbitant that no team would meet it."

Nationals Pursuing Extension For Anthony Rendon

Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said he expects to continue pursuing an extension for third baseman Anthony Rendon.

The 28-year-old has hit .305/.389/.534 with 85 doubles and […]

Tigers Non-Tender Alex Wilson

The Detroit Tigers non-tendered relief pitcher Alex Wilson on Friday, making him a free agent.

Matt Bush Becomes Free Agent

The Texas Rangers non-tendered relief pitchers Matt Bush, Zac Curtis, Ricardo Rodriguez and Adrian Sampson on Friday, making them all free agents.
