Darrius Heyward-Bey Out Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Bengals. DHB isn't on the fantasy radar at all. The 31-year-old has yet to catch a pass for the Steelers in 2018.

Eric Berry Doubtful For Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) will be listed as doubtful for Week 6 against the Patriots on Sunday night. What's new? Berry hasn't practiced or played at all in the regular season, and there remains no timetable for his return. A Chiefs secondary that has given up big plays all year could be […]

Mitch Moreland Working Out Friday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (hamstring) is hitting, playing catch and running the bases during a workout on Friday. The team will make a decision on whether to include him on their roster for the American League Championship Series against the Astros after the workout. Moreland injured his hamstring in Game 2 of […]

O.J. Howard Listed As Questionable

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Falcons. Howard got in a full practice on Friday, so it's looking like he will suit up in a great matchup against the banged-up Atlanta defense. If Howard plays, he'll be a locked-in TE1, while his return will […]

Justin Houston Doubtful For Sunday Night

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) will be doubtful to play on Sunday night against the Patriots while dealing with a sore hamstring. He was unable to practice all week. Against a Patriots team at full strength on offense, losing Houston, one of their best pass rushers, is a big blow to an already […]

De'Anthony Thomas Fractures Leg Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver De'Anthony Thomas (leg) fractured his leg in practice on Thursday and will likely miss the rest of the season. It's a tough break for Thomas after he suffered the same injury in 2017. The 25-year-old had just three catches on five targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in five […]

Josh Doctson Questionable To Face Panthers

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson (heel) is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Panthers. If he does play, he could be limited in his snaps. "Yeah, we're just hoping that when the play presents itself for him to make a big play for us. He's a guy that we have to give […]

DeMarcus Lawrence Playing Through Torn Shoulder Labrum

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder) said he has been playing through a torn labrum in his shoulder the last two years. He will consider having offseason surgery to fix it. Lawrence was in a lot of pain last Sunday night but said he feels much better now. It didn't really slow him down […]

Sean Lee Officially Out In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) has ruled out of Week 6 against the Jaguars and will miss his third straight game with a strained left hamstring. Lee said he would play next week if he's 100 percent, but he could wait until after the bye week to be safe. It helps that rookie Leighton […]

Redskins Playmakers All Listed As Questionable

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said running backs Adrian Peterson (ankle, knee, shoulder) and Chris Thompson (rib) and wide receivers Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) will all be questionable for Week 6 against the Panthers. For an offense already struggling for production, this is bad news. Richardson looks to be the […]

Nick Vannett Questionable For London Game

Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett (back) is listed as questionable to face the Raiders in Week 6 in London. Vannett has been serving as the main pass-catching tight end with rookie Will Dissly out for the year, but he remains a desperation TE2 for those owners hurting at the position. If he sits out, […]

Laremy Tunsil Ready To Play In Week 6

Miami Dolphins offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil (concussion) is out of the concussion protocol and is ready to play in Week 6 against the Bears. It's great news for an offensive line that will have their hands full against a ferocious Chicago pass rush, namely All-Pro defensive end Khalil Mack.

Aaron Rodgers Has Setback With Knee

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) told reporters that he had a "setback" with his knee rehab that might force him to wear a larger brace on Monday night against the 49ers. It's notable, but if it doesn't keep him from playing, fantasy owners shouldn't be too concerned. Rodgers remains a high-end QB1 on […]

Grady Jarrett Out For Falcons

Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Jarrett has now missed the last two games. Atlanta's defense has had the worst luck with injuries so far this year and are missing their best playmakers at each level. Any team facing the Falcons has the potential […]

Sonny Gray Likely To Be Traded?

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said that it would probably be best for all parties if pitcher Sonny Gray is traded. Gray just didn't work out for the Yankees. He was actually worse this year than last, going 11-9 with a 4.90 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 8.5 K/9 in 30 outings (23 starts). […]

CC Sabathia Undergoes Surgery

New York Yankees starting pitcher CC Sabathia (knee) underwent another surgery on his knee on Friday after he had the same procedure last year. Sabathia wasn't half bad in 2018, going 9-7 with a 3.65 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 8.2 K/9 across 29 starts. But the 38-year-old is coming off another knee procedure and doesn't […]

Devonta Freeman Officially Ruled Out Against Bucs

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn officially ruled running back Devonta Freeman (foot) out for Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Freeman hasn't played in back-to-back games this year after injuring his knee in the season opener and missing three weeks. He could be back in Week 7, but he hasn't helped his fantasy owners at […]

Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Expected To Start

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) are both expected to start in Week 6 against the Jets. Castonzo will be making his season debut as quarterback Andrew Luck's blind-side protector. Mack will be making just his second start of the season. While he should be the main option […]

Didi Gregorius To Have Tommy John Surgery

New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius (elbow) underwent an MRI exam on Thursday and will have Tommy John surgery. It's a big blow to a Yankees squad that was bounced in the Division Series by the division-rival Red Sox. It's good news that Gregorius is having the surgery this early in the offseason, but he's […]

Keon Broxton Removed From NLCS Roster

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Keon Broxton has been removed from the roster for the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers in favor of relief pitcher Xavier Cedeno. Broxton was mainly used as a pinch-runner and defensive replacement in the Division Series, going 1-for-2 at the plate with a solo home run in two games.

T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle Ruled Out

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) have officially been ruled out for Week 6 against the Jets. Hilton and Doyle didn't practice all week, so it's no surprise here. They should have a better shot at returning next week with more time to rest. Tight end Eric […]

Greg Olsen Listed As Questionable

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is officially questionable for Week 6 against the Redskins, although head coach Ron Rivera likes Olsen's chances of playing. Olsen is attempting to return after fracturing his foot in the season opener. He could be on a snap count, but Olsen is a low-end TE1 given how poor […]

Rangers Interview Joe Girardi

The Texas Rangers are interviewing ex-Yankees manager Joe Girardi on Friday for their managerial opening, according to two sources. Girardi had a 910-710 record with the Yankees over 10 seasons and directed them to a World Series title in 2009. Texas has also done background work on Padres minor league manager Rod Barajas, Dodgers third […]

Luke Voit Secures First Base Job

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit essentially secured the first base job going into next spring with his strong play to end the 2018 season. “He grabbed that job, there’s no question about it," manager Aaron Boone said. Voit was a godsend for the Yanks late in the year when Greg Bird flopped. The […]

Isaiah Crowell Questionable For Week 6

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Colts. He was limited in practice on Friday and will be a game-time decision Sunday morning. Ultimately, we'd expect Crowell to play after running all over the Broncos for over 200 yards in Week 5. But if he […]

Jets Secondary To Be Short-Handed Against Colts

New York Jets cornerback Buster Skrine (concussion) is out and cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) is doubtful for Week 6 against the Colts, severely limiting the team's secondary against quarterback Andrew Luck. The good news for New York is Indianapolis will likely be without receiver T.Y. Hilton and tight end Jack Doyle. Still, this is great […]

Leonard Fournette Has Chance To Play In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) did some running on Friday and has a chance to play in Week 7, according to head coach Doug Marrone. That's great news, as it was reported earlier this week that there was a chance that Fournette could be held out until after the team's bye in Week […]

Jalen Ramsey Questionable To Face Cowboys

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Cowboys. Ramsey was added to the injury report on Thursday. The Jags may not push to have Ramsey play, as they're facing arguably the worst passing offense and set of receivers in the […]

John Ross Questionable For Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) is questionable for Week 6 against the Steelers. Ross sat out last weekend but has practiced this week and looks ready to return in a matchup against a weak secondary. However, Ross is a boom-or-bust WR4/5 option and can't be trusted in standard-sized leagues if he plays. He's […]

Giovani Bernard, Tyler Kroft Officially Out

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) and tight end Tyler Kroft (foot) have both been officially ruled out for Week 6 against the Steelers. Neither player was expected to return this weekend, but Bernard could be back in the fold as the complement to Joe Mixon next week. Mixon has RB1 upside in a […]
