White Sox Could Pursue Both Bryce Harper, Manny Machado

The Chicago White Sox might be one of the best candidates to pursue both free-agent outfielder Bryce Harper and shortstop Manny Machado this winter, although there's no guarantee they will land either in the midst of a rebuild. The White Sox currently have the second lowest payroll commitment of any team for 2019. Chicago pursued […]

John Ross Practicing Monday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) is getting some practice work in on Monday. Ross might have a chance to return to action in Week 10 against the Saints after healing up on the bye. He hasn't played since Oct. 21 against the Chiefs, and the Bengals will need him more if A.J. Green […]

Giovani Bernard Back At Practice

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) was back at practice on Monday for the first time since he sprained his ACL against the Falcons on Sept. 30. Coming off the bye, there's a decent chance that Bernard returns to action in Week 10 against the Saints in a good matchup, but it's not a […]

Chargers Release Caleb Sturgis

The Los Angeles Chargers are releasing kicker Caleb Sturgis on Monday, according to a source. Sturgis has been either unreliable or injured for the Bolts this year, and it made complete sense to let him go after he missed another field goal and two extra points in the Week 9 win over the Seahawks in […]

Marlon Mack Working On The Side Monday

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (ankle) was working on the side with trainers on Monday during practice. The Colts have been cautious with Mack in practice lately after he missed the start of the season, but he shredded the Raiders on the ground in Week 8 before the team's bye and should be fine […]

Ryan Grant, Erik Swoope Still Not Practicing

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle) and tight end Erik Swoope (knee) are not practicing on Monday after missing Week 8. Both players had extra time to heal up during their Week 9 bye, but it appears they might not be able to return in Week 10 against the Jaguars. Both players are off […]

Brandon Scherff May Have Torn Pec

Washington Redskins offensive guard Brandon Scherff (pectoral) is believed to have suffered a torn pectoral muscle based on the initial diagnosis, according to sources. He will undergo an MRI exam on Monday. Scherff would be done for the rest of the season if it's confirmed. That's especially bad news with left guard Shawn Lauvao suffering […]

Marcus Peters Has Been Getting Roasted

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Marcus Peters has been getting roasted by opposing wideouts in recent weeks and just allowed Saints receiver Michael Thomas to go for a franchise-record 211 yards and a touchdown in Week 9. Peters suffered a calf injury in September that could be the culprit, but he's downplaying his injury as a […]

Hunter Henry Could Return Next Month

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee), who tore his ACL in organized team activities in May, has a chance to return next month, according to league sources. However, his return is still a long shot. He has been running and squatting and his strength is returning and he has not suffered any setbacks. […]

Blake Martinez Carted Off Sunday Night

Green Bay Packers linebacker Blake Martinez (ankle) was carted off in the third quarter on Sunday night against the Patriots after twisting his ankle. Martinez was blitzing and got to quarterback Tom Brady without resistance, but he accidentally stepped on Brady's foot and twisted his left ankle. Hopefully for Martinez and the Green Bay defense, […]

Julian Edelman, Josh Gordon Will Play Against Packers

New England Patriots wide receivers Julian Edelman (ankle) and Josh Gordon (hamstring) are both active on Sunday night against the Patriots. In a likely shootout with tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle, back) inactive, both Edelman and Gordon should be big parts of this passing attack. Edelman is a WR2 in PPR leagues, while Gordon has […]

Rob Gronkowski, Sony Michel Inactive

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle, back) and rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) are both inactive for Sunday night against the Packers. Gronk has now missed two of the last three games and continues to battle injuries. He hasn't gone over 100 yards or scored a touchdown since the season opener. With […]

Randall Cobb Active Sunday Night

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) is active for Sunday night against the Patriots. With Geronimo Allison out, Cobb should have a bigger role, but he'll still likely be third on the receiver depth chart behind Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. In a good matchup in a likely shootout, consider Cobb an option […]

Rockies Interested In Re-Signing Adam Ottavino

Colorado Rockies general manager Jeff Bridich said the team remains in contact with free-agent relief pitcher Adam Ottavino after they did not offer him a $17.9 million qualifying offer. Ottavino had a career year in 2018, posting a 2.43 ERA while ranking eighth among qualified relievers with a 36.3 percent strikeout rate. He's a dominant […]

Matt Paradis Could Be Done For The Season

There is concern that Denver Broncos center Matt Paradis (leg) suffered a fractured right fibula in Week 9 against the Texans. If that's the case, it would knock him out for the rest of the season. Paradis hadn't missed a snap as a starter dating back to 2014. It's a big loss for the Broncos […]

Ravens Want To Use Lamar Jackson More

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said he'd like to find ways to use rookie quarterback Lamar Miller more moving forward. The Ravens lost their third straight game in Week 9 against the Steelers, and they'll have the bye week in Week 10 to figure out ways to improve their stagnant offense. Joe Flacco has […]

Chris Carson Doubtful To Return

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (hip) left the game early in Week 9 against the Chargers and is doubtful to return. Carson ran the ball eight times for 40 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game before leaving. He was a game-time decision for this one after missing a game earlier this year […]

Yoan Moncada Open To Position Change

Chicago White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said that second baseman Yoan Moncada is open to a position change, and it has been discussed by the front office and coaching staff "but we're going to wait to see how this offseason plays out before we fully commit to any reconfiguring of the infield," Hahn said. […]

Chris Carson Will Play In Week 9

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (hip) is active for Week 9 against the Chargers. There was some question as to whether Carson would suit up after he missed a game earlier this year with a similar injury. He'll be the team's lead back and has a decent matchup, putting him firmly in play as […]

Melvin Gordon Active Against Seahawks

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (hamstring) is active for Week 9 against the Seahawks. Gordon was expected to play after practicing this week following the team's Week 8 bye. He'll return to his workhorse duties against Seattle and will be a high-end RB1. Austin Ekeler will factor in on passing downs and has […]

Royce Freeman, DaeSean Hamilton Inactive

Denver Broncos rookie running back Royce Freeman (ankle) and wide receiver Daesean Hamilton (knee) are both inactive for Week 9 against the Texans. Freeman was always a long shot to play this week after suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 7. Look for him to return following the Week 10 bye against the Chargers. […]

Yankees Won't Pursue Bryce Harper

The New York Yankees "will not be in on" free-agent outfielder Bryce Harper this offseason, according to a source. The Yankees have a surplus of outfielders and also re-signed veteran Brett Gardner for 2019, so they'll make Manny Machado and pitching additions more of a priority. Harper disappointed with a .249 batting average but still […]

Denzel Ward Injured Sunday

Cleveland Browns rookie cornerback Denzel Ward (hip) left the game early in Week 9 against the Chiefs and is questionable to return. With corner E.J. Gaines (concussion) ruled out and defensive back Damarious Randall inactive, the Browns are dangerously thin in the secondary against one of the most explosive offenses in the league. The Chiefs […]

Cardinals Could Make A Play For Bryce Harper

With money to spend in free agency this year, the St. Louis Cardinals could make a push in the Bryce Harper sweepstakes this winter. There is some impatience inside the organization since it's been three years since their last playoff appearance and five years since their last National League pennant. The team and chairman Bill […]

John Harbaugh On The Hot Seat

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh is on the hot seat as the team prepares for a divisional showdown against the Steelers in Week 9. Baltimore is currently in third place in the AFC North and have lost two straight games. Pressure is mounting inside the organization on Harbaugh, according to sources. A midseason coaching […]

Steelers Could Use Transition Tag On Le'Veon Bell In 2019

If Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell were to skip the entire 2018 season, the team would strongly consider using the franchise or transition tag on him in 2019, according to a source. Some sources think Bell could be transitioned at as low as the 2019 running back transition number of around $9 million. Bell […]

Concern Surrounding Rob Gronkowski, Sony Michel

The New England Patriots will test tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) and rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) in pre-game workouts Sunday night, but there is concern about whether they will be able to play against the Packers, according to sources. Both players are listed as questionable on the injury report. Gronk missed Week 7 […]

Paul Richardson, Kapri Bibbs Active

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) and running back Kapri Bibbs (shoulder) are both active for Week 9 against the Falcons. With Richardson active, Brian Quick is a healthy scratch. Richardson will effectively be the team's No. 1 wideout with Jamison Crowder still out, but he is still more of a low-ceiling WR4/flex […]

Dalvin Cook Making His Return Against Detroit

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is officially active for Week 9 against the Lions. It will be Cook's first action since Sept. 27 against the Rams. As such, the Vikings are expected to ease him back into action behind Latavius Murray, who has been great the last few weeks in Cook's absence. Because […]

Stefon Diggs Officially Out In Week 9

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (ribs) has officially been ruled out for Week 9 against the Lions. With the team going on bye in Week 10, it makes sense for them to rest Diggs. In his absence, Adam Thielen will be an even bigger target hog and Laquon Treadwell and tight end Kyle Rudolph […]
