Charles Clay Questionable Against Titans

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay (ankle) practiced in full on Friday but is questionable for Week 5 against the Titans. After getting in a full practice on Friday, we'd fully expect Clay to suit up. Even with Buffalo searching for reliable receiving options, Clay hasn't made much noise through four weeks. In a tough […]

Corey Clement Questionable Against Vikings

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Vikings. Clement is in danger of missing his second straight game. Even if he were to be active, he'd see limited touches behind starter Jay Ajayi in the backfield in a tough matchup. Clement should only be stashed in […]

Darren Sproles Out In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Vikings. Sproles hasn't played since the season opener on Thursday night, and there remains no timetable for his return. With Corey Clement (quadriceps) potentially missing his second straight game, Wendell Smallwood could be Jay Ajayi's main backup this weekend. […]

Devonta Freeman, Julio Jones, Tevin Coleman Fine

Atlanta Falcons running backs Devonta Freeman (knee) and Tevin Coleman (shin) and wide receivers Julio Jones (ankle, hand) and Mohamed Sanu (hip) have all been taken off the injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Steelers. Coleman, Freeman and Sanu all practiced in full on Friday, while Jones was limited. Linebacker Vic […]

Bengals Put Tyler Eifert On IR

The Cincinnati Bengals placed oft-injured tight end Tyler Eifert (ankle) on the Injured Reserve on Friday and activated linebacker Vontaze Burfict to the 53-man roster in a corresponding move. Eifert just cannot escape the injury bug, as he has played in just 14 games the last three years and has never played a full season […]

Hayden Hurst Questionable For Week 5

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst (foot) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Browns. Hurst has been practicing the last few weeks but has yet to make his NFL debut. This could be the week. Hurst has the most upside of this committee tight end group, but he's likely to be […]

Maurice Harris Could Start On Monday Night

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said wide receiver Maurice Harris would probably start if Josh Doctson (heel) cannot play on Monday night against the Saints. Doctson was in a walking boot on Friday, so it seems unlikely that he'll play in Week 5. Harris has yet to play in 2018, and even though the […]

Dalvin Cook Will Be Game-Time Decision

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring), who said he "got some reps" in practice on Friday, said he will be a game-time decision for Week 5 against the Eagles. He is optimistic that he will be able to play Sunday. We aren't quite as optimistic. Even if Cook plays, he'll likely cede a lot […]

A.J. Derby Ruled Out Against Bengals

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Bengals. That means that rookie Mike Gesicki will be the main pass-catching tight end this Sunday. Gesicki has yet to make an impact, though, catching only five passes on seven targets for 51 yards. […]

DeVante Parker, Reshad Jones Questionable

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (quadriceps), safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) and defensive end Andre Branch (knee) are listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Bengals. Parker and Branch were limited in practice, while Jones practiced in full. Parker and Branch legitimately could miss Sunday's game, while Jones should be able to return and […]

Cameron Wake Doubtful For Week 5

Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) is doubtful to play in Week 5 against the Bengals after missing practice all week. With Andre Branch questionable, Miami's defensive line could be in bad shape this Sunday against Cincinnati. That'd be good news for quarterback Andy Dalton. Wake has 12 tackles and one sack through four […]

Trai Turner Will Return In Week 5

Carolina Panthers offensive guard Trai Turner (concussion) has been taken off the final injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Giants after missing the last two games with a concussion. Turner's return is great news for Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey and the running game this Sunday.

Jimmy Smith Expected To Play Against Browns

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh expects cornerback Jimmy Smith to play in Week 5 against the Browns after returning this week from a four-game suspension. Harbaugh has been impressed with the veteran's physical conditioning. An already strong defense will benefit from the return of their grizzled veteran in the secondary. Baltimore remains a strong […]

Frank Clark Dealing With Food Poisoning

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that defensive end Frank Clark, who missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, has been dealing with food poisoning. "He’s been sick a little bit this week," Carroll told KIRO Radio 97.3 FM, "and we’re trying to get him back and get him ready to play, which we think he […]

Chris Carson Will Return In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll confirmed on Friday that running back Chris Carson (hip) will return in Week 5 against the Rams after being a surprise inactive in Week 4. However, Mike Davis ran for over 100 yards and two touchdowns in Carson's absence last Sunday, so it's anyone's guess how much work Carson […]

Kolten Wong Doesn't Need Surgery

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong (knee) will not need surgery after his left knee was examined after the season. A scan of the joint showed that the cartilage that shook loose earlier this year would not need to be fixed. In his five full years with the Red Birds, Wong has started more […]

Paul DeJong Has Surgery On His Hand

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong (hand) had surgery on his hand this week after he fractured his hand in late May. The surgery was done to remove the plate from his hand, which will put him in a cast for another few weeks. DeJong said he'll be fine to resume offseason workouts in a […]

Joe Kelly, Brandon Workman Make ALDS Roster

Boston Red Sox relief pitchers Joe Kelly and Brandon Workman made the roster for the American League Division Series against the Yankees. Heath Hembree and Bobby Poyner were left off the roster with the Red Sox carrying three catchers. Kelly and Workman will fill middle relief roles for the Red Sox against their arch-rivals in […]

Gerardo Parra Starting Over David Dahl

Colorado Rockies outfielder Gerardo Parra will get the start over David Dahl in left field and will hit sixth against Brewers starter Jhoulys Chacin in Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Friday. Parra hit for a decent average (.284) and on-base percentage (.342) on the year, but he doesn't have much power […]

Hernan Perez Starting At Shortstop In Game 2

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Hernan Perez gets the nod at shortstop over Orlando Arcia and will hit sixth against Rockies starter Tyler Anderson in Game 2 of the National League Division Series on Friday. Perez brings more offense than Arcia does, and he hit much better against lefties this year than righties with a .277 average […]

Wade Miley To Start Game 3 Of NLDS

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley will start Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Rockies in Colorado if he's not needed in relief in Game 2 on Friday. Miley was extremely effective in 16 starts this year for the Brew Crew, going 5-2 with a 2.57 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 5.6 […]

No Concern Over Alex Collins' Status

Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins (knee) was a "full go" in practice on Friday, and head coach John Harbaugh said there is no concern about Collins playing in Week 5 against the Browns. Collins had missed practice on Thursday. What is of concern are Collins' fumbling issues and the fact that Javorius Allen continues […]

Giovani Bernard Out 2-4 Weeks With Knee Sprain

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) will miss two to four weeks with an MCL sprain, according to a source. Bernard was effective with Joe Mixon (knee) out two weeks with a knee sprain of his own, with three touchdowns and 4.8 yards per carry the last two weeks. Mixon immediately jumps back to […]

Trumaine Johnson Ruled Out

New York Jets cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) did not practice on Friday and has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Denver Broncos. It's a blow to the Jets defense this weekend, but thankfully they'll be facing the inept Case Keenum, who hasn't thrown a touchdown pass since Week 1. Johnson's absence is a […]

Quincy Enunwa Will Play Against Broncos

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa (hip), who was a late addition to the injury report this week, has been taken off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Broncos. He will play, but he's more of a WR3/flex option in a stagnant offense while going up against strong slot cornerback Chris […]

Evan Engram, Olivier Vernon Ruled Out

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (knee) and defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) have both been ruled out for Week 5 against the Panthers. Engram isn't expected to return for another week or two, so his absence won't be a surprise. Rhett Ellison should continue to be the team's main tight end, but he […]

Sterling Shepard, Eli Apple Will Play

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (back), cornerback Eli Apple (groin), defensive tackle Damon Harrison (knee) and wide receiver Cody Latimer (knee) are not on the final injury report for Week 5 against the Panthers and will play on Sunday. With quarterback Eli Manning checking down often, Shepard has become somewhat of a safety […]

Josh Doctson In Walking Boot

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson (heel) was seen in a walking boot at practice on Friday, according to a source. Doctson was injured in practice this week and looks unlikely to play on Monday night in a good matchup against the Saints leaky secondary. It's possible Doctson could miss multiple games, too, depending on […]

Adrian Peterson Moving Well In Practice

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle) was moving around well in practice on Friday and looks good to go for Monday night against the Saints. Peterson has looked spry so far through three games and is coming back fresh off the team's bye week. In what could be a high-scoring game, Peterson has volume-based […]

Dalvin Cook Likely To Be Questionable

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) missed practice again on Friday, but head coach Mike Zimmer said on Thursday that Cook would probably be listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Eagles. Cook looks more doubtful than questionable after not practicing all week. You should have no plans to use him this weekend. […]
