Pryor has a chance to see more targets with Quincy Enunwa dealing with a high ankle sprain, but now Pryor's status for Week 7 against the […]

Ryan Grant Not At Practice Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle) is not at practice on Wednesday. It's not a good start to the week for Grant if he wants to play in Week 7 against the Bills. Even if he's able to, the impending return of T.Y. Hilton (hamstring) would push Grant to No. 3 duties behind Chester […]

Jack Doyle Not At Practice

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (hip) was not on the practice field on Wednesday. Doyle has now been out since Sept. 16 against the Redskins and doesn't look close to returning. With him on the sidelines, Eric Ebron has become quarterback Andrew Luck's go-to target and will remain a high-end TE1 going into Week […]

Darren Sproles Still Not Practicing

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) remains out of practice on Wednesday. The Eagles claim that Sproles is day-to-day, but he hasn't played since getting injured in the season opener. Sproles should remain on most waiver wires, but he'll have some role when he's healthy enough to return, which could leave this backfield as […]

Travis Benjamin Limited In Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (foot) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Benjamin has been out since aggravating his foot injury on Sept. 30 against the 49ers.

Derek Anderson To Start In Week 7

Buffalo Bills quarterback Derek Anderson will make the start in Week 7 against the Colts. Head coach Sean McDermott said rookie Josh Allen (elbow) is week-to-week with an injured ulnar collateral ligament. Nathan Peterman relieved Allen last Sunday and threw two interceptions, including a decisive pick-six. Anderson isn't a much better option than Peterman, but […]

T.Y. Hilton To Be Limited Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (hamstring) will be limited in practice on Wednesday, but he hinted that he would be able to play at less than 100 percent in Week 7 against the Bills. “My less (than 100 percent) is better than a lot of people," Hilton said. Hilton has missed the last couple […]

Leonard Fournette, T.J. Yeldon Won't Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running backs Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and T.J. Yeldon (ankle, foot) are not expected to practice on Wednesday. While Fournette has a chance to return this week against the Texans, but it's not a good start to the week. There is still a chance that the team plays it cautious with him and holds […]

Alvin Kamara - Sell Now or Buy-Low?

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara was a beast in his rookie season despite sharing the workload with Mark Ingram. The third-round pick out of Tennessee compiled 728 yards and eight touchdowns on 120 rushing attempts (6.1 yards per carry) while adding 81 receptions (100 targets) for an additional 826 yards (10.2 yards per […]

Chris Sale Thinks He Can Pitch

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale (illness) told the team that he's "good enough" to pitch but did not throw a bullpen session before Game 3 of the American League Championship Series on Tuesday.

Gio Gonzalez Leaves In Second Inning With Injury

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Gio Gonzalez (ankle) left the Game 4 start in the second inning of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers on Tuesday after rolling his ankle. The left-hander was unlikely to stay in the game much longer as the opener, but this will put a real strain on Milwaukee's bullpen […]

Marcell Ozuna To See Specialist Later This Month

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Marcell Ozuna (shoulder) will visit with a specialist in Los Angeles in late October to determine the next course of action for his injured right shoulder. Ozuna was somewhat of a disappointment in his first season with the Cardinals after hitting 37 bombs and hitting .312 with Miami in 2017. In […]

Josh Allen To Miss 2-3 Games

Buffalo Bills rookie quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) received a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews and while he will not need surgery, the expectation is that Allen will miss at least two or three games and will be week-to-week after that, according to a source.

Rams Cut Cairo Santos

The Los Angeles Rams cut kicker Cairo Santos on Tuesday. He went 2-for-3 in the Week 6 win over the Broncos, but Greg Zuerlein (groin) is expected to return from his injury in Week 7 to face the 49ers. If Zuerlein is on your league's waiver wire, pick him up. He'll be one of the […]

Jon Gruden Standing By Derek Carr

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said he is standing by quarterback Derek Carr despite his struggles this year. "He is the strength of this football team. He is on my watch. I said it when I got here, if he doesn't play well, I've failed," Gruden said. Carr has improved his completion percentage (71.7 […]

Devonta Freeman To Have Groin Surgery

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (groin) will undergo surgery on his groin in Philadelphia on Thursday, according to a source. Freeman was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday and will be out for at least the next eight weeks. It means he's unlikely to contribute much to close out the year if he even […]

Marshawn Lynch Could Be Dealing With Long-Term Injury

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said he is concerned that running back Marshawn Lynch's (groin) injury could be a long-term injury. Lynch will be evaluated during the team's Week 7 bye.

Rams Sign Nick Williams

The Los Angeles Rams are signing free-agent wide receiver Nick Williams on Tuesday with Cooper Kupp (knee) expected to miss at least one game, according to a source.

Devonta Freeman Heading To Injured Reserve

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot, groin) will be placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday.

Jose Altuve Serving As DH In Game 3

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (knee) is hitting second and serving as the designated hitter for Game 3 of the American League Championship Series against Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi on Tuesday.
