Thomas Rawls, Auden Tate Not Playing Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Thomas Rawls and wide receiver Auden Tate are healthy inactives for Week 3 against the Panthers. That means that Giovani Bernard and rookie Mark Walton will split the backfield work amongst themselves with Joe Mixon (knee) out. Bernard has RB2 potential in a workhorse role. Walton doesn't have standalone value against […]

C.J. Mosley Inactive Against Broncos

Baltimore Ravens linebacker C.J. Mosley (knee) is inactive in Week 3 against the Broncos. Mosley wasn't really expected to return after suffering a bone bruise in his knee in Week 2, but he has a chance to make it back for Week 4. He's the strength in the middle for Baltimore, so his absence is […]

Reshad Jones Inactive Against Raiders

Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) is inactive for Week 3 against the Raiders. That's bad news for the Dolphins secondary and good news for Oakland quarterback Derek Carr and their deep passing game. Make sure Jones is benched in IDP formats. Rookie running back Kalen Ballage, wide receiver Tanner McEvoy and quarterbacks David Fales […]

Seth Roberts, Dwayne Washington Out Sunday

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Seth Roberts and running back Dwayne Washington are both healthy inactives in Week 3 against the Dolphins. Both Roberts and Washington are currently buried on the depth chart and have no business being on any fantasy rosters. Roberts has four catches on five targets for 54 yards and a score in […]

LeSean McCoy Inactive Sunday

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (ribs) is inactive for Week 3 against the Vikings. McCoy's absence means that Chris Ivory should see the lion's share of touches on Sunday against a stout Minnesota front and behind a bad offensive line. Ivory isn't an attractive flex play as a result in a game that Buffalo […]

Corey Clement, Jason Peters Playing Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement (quadriceps) and left tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) are both active in Week 3 against the Colts. Clement's injury was never considered very serious. He will be the team's lead back with both Jay Ajayi (back) and Darren Sproles (hamstring) out this weekend, giving him RB2 upside for fantasy owners […]

Alshon Jeffery Officially Out Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) is officially inactive for Week 3 against the Colts. Jeffery has made improvements the last two weeks in practice, but he was always highly unlikely to return before Week 4. With quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) making his season debut on Sunday, Nelson Agholor and tight end Zach Ertz […]

Paul Richardson, Zach Brown Active

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) and linebacker Zach Brown (oblique) are both active in Week 3 against the Packers. Richardson hasn't really done much for fantasy owners this year through two weeks and doesn't seem to be a very good fit with quarterback Alex Smith. He's more of a WR5/6 depth option. […]

Aaron Rodgers Will Play Against Redskins

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) is active in Week 3 against the Redskins. Rodgers hasn't practiced much the last two weeks, but he will once again play against Washington and is a must-start for fantasy owners anytime he's on the field. Hopefully Rodgers won't do any more damage to his left knee by […]

Julio Jones Is Active

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (calf) is active in Week 3 against the Saints. Jones has yet to find the end zone yet, but he could easily do so this Sunday against the Saints in what could be a high-scoring affair. Keep Jones plugged into your starting lineups as an elite WR1.

Ted Ginn Active Sunday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (knee) is active for Week 3 against the Falcons. There wasn't really any doubt that Ginn would suit up for this one. Atlanta's defense is vulnerable in the secondary, so the Saints could have their way in what could be a shootout. Ginn has been the No. 2 […]

Blaine Gabbert Expected To Start Against Jaguars

Tennessee Titans quarterback Blaine Gabbert is expected to start again in Week 3 against the Jaguars despite Marcus Mariota (elbow) being active, according to sources. The Titans are still hoping Mariota can regain feel in his right hand in order to grip the football properly as soon as possible. This is basically the same as […]

Marcus Mariota Active Sunday

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) is active for Week 3 against the Jaguars. Right tackle Jack Conklin (knee), running back David Fluellen and wide receiver Nick Williams are among the inactives for Tennessee. While Mariota saw some improvement this week in practice, he still might sit on the sidelines in favor of Blaine Gabbert […]

Redskins Release Breshad Perriman

The Washington Redskins released wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Saturday, according to a source. However, the team could bring him back in the future. Perriman was a first-round bust with the Ravens and has failed to catch on elsewhere so far. He is well off the fantasy radar and is highly unlikely to produce at […]

Erik Swoope Added To Roster

The Indianapolis Colts promoted tight end Erik Swoope from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday and waived cornerback Lenzy Pipkins in a corresponding move. The team also signed quarterback Phillip Walker to the practice squad. Swoope caught one pass for 13 yards in the season opener against the Bengals. He's merely depth […]

Francisco Cervelli Leaves With Stomach Pain

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Francisco Cervelli (stomach) left the game early on Friday with gastrointestinal discomfort. Cervelli had a hit and run scored in two plate appearances before leaving. The backstop has missed time with concussions this year, so thankfully this is something that should have him back in the lineup soon. Cervelli is batting .256/.376/.419 […]

Cramping Ends Kolten Wong's Night Early

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong left the game early on Friday due to cramping. Wong had two singles and two RBI in three plate appearances before departing. He has spent several stints on the disabled list this year due to various ailments and is hitting .251/.333/.391 with only nine home runs, 38 RBI […]

Austin Voth To Start Saturday, Tanner Roark To Go Wednesday

Washington Nationals pitcher Austin Voth will make the start on Saturday against the Mets instead of starter Tanner Roark, according to manager Dave Martinez. Roark has been on paternity leave all week, so they don't want to rush him back. He is likely to make his next start on Wednesday against the Marlins. Voth has […]

Josh Rosen Could Make Debut This Sunday

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said it's "hard to determine" when the right time to play rookie quarterback Josh Rosen is, but ESPN's Josh Weinfuss would not be surprised if Rosen sees the field this Sunday against the Bears if the offense under Sam Bradford continues to struggle. The Cardinals have just one touchdown […]

Reshad Jones Expected To Play

Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder), who is questionable for Week 3 against the Raiders, is expected to play on Sunday. Jones is one of the more attractive IDP safeties in the league and has six tackles and two interceptions through two weeks. If he's on the field, it'll be a downgrade for Raiders quarterback […]

Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill Off Injury Report

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (abdomen), wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, knee) all practiced in full on Friday and have been removed from the Week 3 injury report against the Raiders. Drake will be the starting running back and is a strong RB2 against a weak Raiders front. Tannehill […]

Evan Engram Removed From Injury Report

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (ankle) and wide receiver Kaelin Clay (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and were removed from the final injury report for Week 3 against the Texans. Engram has nine catches on 12 targets for 85 yards and a touchdown in two weeks and is a strong TE1 option […]

Case Keenum Not On Injury Report

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the final Week 3 injury report against the Ravens. Keenum doesn't have a very high fantasy ceiling despite the team being 2-0, and he's thrown more interceptions than touchdowns through two weeks. The matchup against Baltimore isn't very enticing either, […]

Ji-Man Choi Injured Friday

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Ji-Man Choi (knee) left the game early on Friday with left knee soreness. Choi was productive before leaving, posting two hits (one double) and two runs scored in three plate appearances. The left-handed slugger is a part-time player for Tampa and is hitting .267/.350/.513 with 10 home runs and 32 […]

Trevor Story Could Be Back In 2-3 More Days

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) remained out of the starting lineup on Friday against the Diamondbacks, but the good news is that manager Bud Black said the superstar might only be out two or three more games. The All-Star shortstop missed two games in Los Angeles after hurting his right elbow while diving and […]

Logan Forsythe Dealing With Knee Issue

Minnesota Twins second baseman Logan Forsythe (knee) was out of the starting lineup on Friday after he woke up and his left knee "was not functioning correctly," according to manager Paul Molitor. It doesn't sound particularly encouraging, but we'll have to wait and see how much time he might miss. Forsythe did very little with […]

Eddie Rosario Unlikely To Play Again This Year

Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario (quadriceps), whose MRI exam showed inflammation, is "fairly unlikely" to play again this season, according to manager Paul Molitor. Rosario limped to the finish line but had a great season overall, hitting .288/.323/.479 with 24 home runs, 77 RBI, 87 runs scored and eight stolen bases in 138 games. You […]

Jose Peraza Was Scratched Friday

Cincinnati Reds infielder Jose Peraza (illness) was scratched from the starting lineup on Friday due to illness. Dilson Herrera hit second, while Blake Trahan filled in at shortstop and hit eighth. Peraza has been great for fantasy owners this year, hitting .290/.328/.419 with 13 home runs, 56 RBI, 84 runs scored and 23 stolen bases. […]

Earl Thomas May Not Play Sunday

Seattle Seahawks free safety Earl Thomas missed practice on Friday due to personal reasons, and head coach Pete Carroll wouldn't say if Thomas would be available for Week 3 against the Cowboys. Dallas and Seattle discussed a potential trade of Thomas all offseason, but Seattle's price was always too high. It's unclear if Thomas actually […]

Hector Velazquez Likely To Start Sunday

Boston Red Sox starter Hector Velazquez is likely to start on Sunday against the Indians. Velazquez has been pretty good this year with a 3.19 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 49 strikeouts in 79 innings over 43 outings (seven starts). However, he hasn't been as effective as a starter (4.00 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, 6.7 K/9) as […]
