Hector Rondon, Joe Smith Added To ALCS Roster

Houston Astros relief pitchers Hector Rondon and Joe Smith are being added to the roster for the American League Championship Series against the Red Sox in favor of reliever Will Harris and outfielder Myles Straw. Rondon was solid for the Astros as their primary closer for much of the year, but he lost the job […]

Travis Shaw Sitting Against Lefty In Game 1

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw is out of the starting lineup for Game 1 of the National League Championship Series against Dodgers lefty Clayton Kershaw. Hernan Perez will draw the start at the keystone and hit fifth on Friday. Perez is simply a contrarian sleeper in DFS against the always tough Kershaw. Perez is 0-for-5 […]

Four Patriots Playmakers Are Questionable

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle), rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and wide receivers Josh Gordon (hamstring) and Chris Hogan (thigh) were all limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 6 against the Chiefs on Sunday night. Hogan is really the only player in doubt, but even he should […]

Derrick Willies Out After Fracturing Collarbone

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Derrick Willies (collarbone) fractured his collarbone in practice on Friday and has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Chargers. Willies will be re-evaluated next week. Willies was in line to see more snaps after serving as a hero late in the Week 5 overtime win over the Ravens. With […]

Eric Ebron, Darius Leonard Questionable Against Jets

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee, quadriceps, shin) and rookie linebacker Darius Leonard (ankle) both practiced in full on Friday but are questionable for Week 6 against the Jets. We expect both to play this Sunday, but Ebron could be limited with the various injuries he's dealing with. Even with the threat of […]

Deonte Thompson, Brice Butler Questionable

Dallas Cowboys wide receivers Deonte Thompson (hamstring) and Brice Butler (groin) were both added to the injury report on Friday as limited practice participants and are questionable for Week 6 against the Jaguars. Both Thompson and Butler are depth for what has become the league's worst receiving corps. Thompson has caught 11 of his 16 […]

DeVante Parker, Jakeem Grant, A.J. Derby Questionable

Miami Dolphins wide receivers Devante Parker (quadriceps) and Jakeem Grant (shoulder) and tight end A.J. Derby (foot) are all questionable for Week 6 against the Bears. Parker said earlier this week that he had no idea if he'd play. He's only suited up for one game this year and isn't a realistic starting option even […]

Brandin Cooks, Cooper Kupp Expected To Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receivers Brandin Cooks (concussion) and Cooper Kupp (concussion) both practiced in full on Friday, and head coach Sean McVay said he expects both receivers to be cleared to play on Saturday. The Rams should have all three receivers -- Robert Woods, Cooks and Kupp -- healthy for Week 6 against the […]

Mo Alie-Cox Added To Active Roster

The Indianapolis Colts added tight end Mo Alie-Cox from the practice squad to the active roster on Friday, signaling that Eric Ebron might not be ready for a full workload if he plays in Week 6 against the Jets. Alie-Cox had one catch for 17 yards back in Week 4. Safety Matthias Farley was put […]

Cameron Wake Listed As Doubtful

Miami Dolphins defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) is listed as doubtful to face the Bears in Week 6. Wake's absence will be bad news for a declining Miami defensive line. They'll try to get pressure in other ways on quarterback Mitch Trubisky on Sunday. Wake has recorded 12 tackles and one sack in four games […]

Ryan Tannehill Questionable With Shoulder Issue

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) is questionable for Week 6 against the Bears. He practiced on Wednesday and Thursday but was limited on Friday. We fully expect Tannehill to suit up, although he'll be facing off against a very tough Bears defense and shouldn't be started in single-QB leagues.

Dalvin Cook Questionable Against Cardinals

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Cardinals. Cook said he only wants to return if he is 100 percent healthy. If Cook plays, expect him to see a normal workload with Latavius Murray backing him up. That'd make him a high-end RB2/low-end RB1 in an […]

Anthony Miller To Wear Harness In Week 6

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Anthony Miller (shoulder) will play with a harness for his shoulder in Week 6 against the Dolphins. He said he wore a harness for the entire 2017 season in college on the same arm, so he's not worried about playing with it. It will be Miller's first game action since […]

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 […]
