Amari Cooper Fine To Play In Week 5

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper (foot) was limited in practice all week and is not on the final injury report for Week 5 against the Raiders. Cooper was never in any danger of missing this Sunday's game. He's had two really good games and two clunkers so far in four weeks, so it's almost […]

LeGarrette Blount Will Play Against Packers

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount (illness) returned to a full practice on Friday and was taken off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Packers. Blount remains an option in this committee backfield, but he's been the least effective back among rookie Kerryon Johnson and Theo Riddick. Blount could vulture a touchdown, […]

Marvin Jones, Quandre Diggs Questionable

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones (ankle) and defensive back Quandre Diggs (hand) are both listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Packers. Jones picked up an injury at practice Friday, so that doesn't bode well for his status this Sunday. If he must sit out, it'd mean more targets for Golden Tate and […]

Ezekiel Ansah, Michael Roberts Ruled Out

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) and tight end Michael Roberts (knee) were ruled out for Week 5 against the Packers. Ansah was limited in practice all week, while Roberts didn't practice at all. Ansah appears close to a return, but he will miss his fourth straight game of the year. He's the team's […]

Cole Beasley, DeMarcus Lawrence Will Play

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley (ankle) and defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder) both practiced in full on Friday and are not on the final injury report for Week 5 against the Texans on Sunday night. Beasley sadly is the team's leading receiver with 16 catches on 18 targets for 185 yards and no touchdowns […]

DeAndre Hopkins, J.J. Watt, Jadeveon Clowney Are Fine

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (ankle, hamstring, thumb) and defensive ends J.J. Watt (thigh) and Jadeveon Clowney (foot) have been taken off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Cowboys on Sunday night. Wide receiver Sammie Coates (hamstring) will also play, but he has no fantasy value. Hopkins, Watt and Clowney were […]

Will Fuller, Keke Coutee Questionable

Houston Texans wide receivers Will Fuller (hamstring) and rookie Keke Coutee (hamstring) were both limited all week in practice and are questionable for Week 5 against the Cowboys on Sunday night. Coutee made his season debut in Week 4 when Fuller was injured and thoroughly impressed. He should be fine to play, but his fantasy […]

T.J. Yeldon, Austin Seferian-Jenkins Will Play

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) and tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) both practiced in full on Friday and are off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Chiefs. With Leonard Fournette (hamstring) out, Yeldon will be the main option in the backfield and is in the RB2 mix this weekend with […]

Sammy Watkins, Dee Ford Listed As Questionable

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) and linebacker Dee Ford (groin) were both limited in practice all week and are questionable to play in Week 5 against the Jaguars. It seems as though both will have no trouble playing on Sunday. Watkins missed his only target last Monday night before being injured, and […]

Eric Berry Doubtful Against Jags

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) didn't practice all week and is listed as doubtful to face the Jaguars in Week 5. Berry hasn't practiced during the regular season and will not play this weekend. There remains no timetable for his return to help a beleaguered KC secondary. Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles and his […]

Marshawn Lynch Not On Injury Report

Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch (abdomen) wasn't listed on the final injury report and will play in Week 5 against the Chargers. Head coach Jon Gruden didn't sound like he's ready to limit Lynch's heavy workload. “He’s been durable his career. We’ll just keep feeding him Skittles and keep sending him out there as […]

Kenny Vaccaro, Wesley Woodyard Won't Play Sunday

Tennessee Titans strong safety Kenny Vaccaro (elbow) and linebacker Wesley Woodyard (shoulder) both missed practice all week and will not play in Week 5 against the Bills. It's a downgrade for Tennessee's defense overall, but they should still be a strong fantasy play against a Buffalo offense that was shut out last week by a […]

Corey Davis, Marcus Mariota Not On Injury Report

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (illness) and quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) both practiced in full on Friday and are not on the final injury report for Week 5 against the Bills. Both players were never in danger of missing this game. With Mariota's elbow getting back to full health, it has put Davis back […]

Trae Waynes Ruled Out Against Eagles

Minnesota Vikings cornerback Trae Waynes (concussion) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Eagles. The Vikes will be a little short-handed in the secondary on Sunday, meaning Kamar Aiken or Jordan Matthews will likely draw rookie cornerback Mike Hughes on the outside in three-receiver sets. Alshon Jeffery and […]

Alshon Jeffery, Jason Peters Off Injury Report

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (chest) and left tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) both practiced in full on Friday and are off the final injury report for Week 5 against the Vikings. Jeffery had over 100 yards and a score in his season debut last week, but it won't be as easy for him in […]

James Kaprielian Throwing In Instructional League

Oakland Athletics general manager David Forst said that pitching prospect James Kaprielian (elbow, shoulder) is throwing in an instructional league game on Friday. The right-hander had Tommy John surgery last April and then developed shoulder problems. He hasn't pitched since 2016 with High-A Tampa. Kaprielian is the team's No. 9 prospect, but he has quite […]

Jesus Luzardo Will Have Chance To Earn Rotation Spot

Oakland Athletics general manager David Forst said pitching prospect Jesus Luzardo will be in the mix for a starting job in spring training next year. Luzardo is the team's top prospect and ranks as baseball's No. 12 prospect overall. The left-hander had a 2.88 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and excellent 10.6 K/9 over 23 starts (109 […]

German Marquez To Start Game 3 Of NLDS

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said that starting pitcher German Marquez will pitch in Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Brewers on Sunday. Marquez started the team's one-game playoff with the Dodgers on Monday to decide the division and was the team's best starter down the stretch. He went 14-11 with […]

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.
