New York Jets running back Bilal Powell (neck) left the game early in Week 7 against the Vikings and will not return. Powell ran the ball five times for 20 yards and caught one pass for five yards before exiting. With Powell out the rest of the way, Isaiah Crowell should see most of the […]

Blake Bortles Benched In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles has been benched in Week 7 against the Texans in favor of Cody Kessler. Bortles was just 6-for-12 for 61 yards and two lost fumbles before being benched. He's had two terrible games in a row and will now give way to Kessler. Even if Bortles gets the start in […]

Erik Swoope Injured Against Bills

Indianapolis Colts tight end Erik Swoope (knee) left the game early in Week 7 against the Bills and is questionable to return. Swoope caught his only target for a 17-yard touchdown before leaving this game, so he rewarded fantasy owners that were desperate enough to start him. Eric Ebron will remain the main pass-catching tight […]

Keke Coutee Injures Hamstring Sunday

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) aggravated his hamstring injury in Week 7 against the Jaguars and is questionable to return. Coutee caught just one of his three targets for three yards before leaving with his injury. The impressive rookie has a lot of upside, but he's a shaky WR4/flex behind DeAndre Hopkins […]

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (ankle, leg) was carted to the locker room in Week 7 against the Bears.

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (head) has been ruled out of Week 7 against the Colts after suffering a head injury on the team's first drive of the game.

The Dallas Cowboys are monitoring Buffalo Bills wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin and Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker, according to a source.

Eagles Considering DeVante Parker

The Philadelphia Eagles are one team considering trading for Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker, according to a source.

A change of […]

Breshad Perriman Active In Week 7

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Breshad Perriman is active and will make his team debut in Week 7 against the Buccaneers. It's a great matchup against Tampa's soft secondary, but Perriman will likely be fourth on the pecking order behind Jarvis Landry and rookies Antonio Callaway and Damion Ratley. You can do much better in fantasy […]

Duke Johnson Listed As Week 7 Starter

Cleveland Browns running back Duke Johnson is listed as the starter for Week 7 against the Buccaneers, but a team spokesperson said rookie Nick Chubb could start over Johnson depending on the formation the offense uses to begin the game.

DeVante Parker, A.J. Derby Inactive For Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (quadriceps) and tight end A.J. Derby (foot) are both inactive for Week 7 against the Lions.

Allen Robinson, Khalil Mack Active Against Patriots

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (groin) and defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) are both active in Week 7 against the Patriots. There was never much doubt whether each would suit up.

Sony Michel, Julian Edelman, Josh Gordon Active

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Julian Edelman (heel) and Josh Gordon (hamstring) are all active in Week 7 against the Bears.

Isaiah Crowell Active Against Vikings

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is active in Week 7 against the Vikings. Crowell was always expected to play, but he'll be a touchdown-dependant RB3/flex in a tough matchup with Minnesota's defensive front. Expect him to have a near-even workload with Bilal Powell once again. With Jets defensive backs Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps), […]

Carlos Hyde Inactive Sunday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Carlos Hyde is inactive for Week 7 against the Texans. Hyde was just acquired from the Browns on Friday and he didn't have enough time to learn the offense.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to be out through the team's Week 9 bye and will miss Week 7 against the Texans and Week 8 against the Eagles, according to a source.

The Los Angeles Chargers still have no definitive timetable for the return of defensive end Joey Bosa (foot).

Hunter Henry Unlikely To Return This Year

Chad Kelly Could Play In Second Half Of Season

With the Denver Broncos not likely to roll with quarterback Case Keenum in the long term, sources continue to indicate that the team intends to give Chad Kelly a look at some point in the second half of the season. Keenum hasn't been very good at all so far in 2018, and with the Broncos […]

Emmanuel Sanders, Demaryius Thomas Could Be Traded

With the Denver Broncos likely looking at a rebuild after this year, wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas could be traded before the Oct. 30 deadline.

No Clarity In Le'Veon Bell Situation

The Pittsburgh Steelers have still received no clarity on running back Le'Veon Bell during their bye week on when or if he will report and end his contract holdout.
