Jaguars Comfortable With Receiving Depth

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said the team is "comfortable" with who they have on roster after the season-ending injury to wide receiver Marqise Lee (knee), meaning the team is unlikely to consider free-agent receiver Dez Bryant.

Robby Anderson's Case Still Under Review

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson's case remains under review by the NFL.

Evan Engram Not Practicing Monday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (head) will not practice on Monday, but he's wearing a helmet and playing catch. The Giants appear to be playing it cautious with Engram. Assuming he doesn't have any setbacks, he should be ready for Week 1. The second-year tight end had an excellent rookie season and should […]

DeVante Parker Not Catching Passes

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said that wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) still cannot catch passes and doesn't know if the receiver will be able to play in Week 1 against the Titans.

New York Giants linebacker Olivier Vernon (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle in practice on Sunday, according to a source informed of the player's condition.

Arizona Cardinals running back D.J. Foster (knee) was carted off the field during the preseason game against the Cowboys on Sunday and suffered a torn ACL, according to a source.

New England Patriots wide receiver Eric Decker announced his retirement on Instagram on Sunday.

Jose Altuve Could Be Back Tuesday

Houston Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow said "it is not out of the realm of possibility" that second baseman Jose Altuve (knee) comes off the disabled list on Tuesday to face the Mariners.

Ben Garland Likely Out This Week

Atlanta Falcons offensive guard Ben Garland has an undisclosed strain and is likely to be out this week. It doesn't sound like this is a significant injury, so Garland should be fine heading into the regular season opener. He's been one of the more successful offensive guards in the NFL.

New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius (heel) left the game early on Sunday with a bruised left heel and will go to the hospital for more tests.

Touki Toussaint Likely To Rejoin Rotation This Week

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Touki Toussaint is expected to rejoin the rotation and start Thursday or Friday against the Marlins. The high-upside arm was great in his major league debut against the same Marlins on Aug. 13, allowing just one run while walking two and fanning four in six innings for a win. He has […]

Updating a previous report, Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Yu Darvish (elbow) will undergo an MRI exam after feeling pain in his arm after he warmed up for the second inning in his minor league rehab outing.

AJ McCarron Going For Second Opinion

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said quarterback AJ McCarron (shoulder) is going for a second opinion, as tests on his broken collarbone were "not totally conclusive."

Richard Rodgers Week-To-Week

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Richard Rodgers (knee) is being listed as week-to-week with a knee injury he suffered in the last preseason game. Rodgers is third on the depth chart behind Zach Ertz and rookie Dallas Goedert, so he can be ignored in fantasy.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles (shoulder) is fine and will return to practice on Sunday, according to head coach Doug Pederson. Foles was injured in the preseason game last week, but it obviously didn't keep him out for long. With Carson Wentz (knee) questionable for Week 1, Foles is a huge security blanket for the […]
