DeAndre Hopkins Limited In Practice

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (foot) was limited in practice on Wednesday but looked to be pretty mobile. Hopkins is fully expected to play in Week 2 against the Titans, where he'll be a must-start. The 26-year-old had eight receptions on 11 targets for 78 yards in the season-opening loss to the Patriots.

Will Fuller, Jadeveon Clowney Limited Wednesday

Houston Texans wide receivers Will Fuller (hamstring), Sammie Coates (hamstring) and rookie Keke Coutee (hamstring) and defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (back, elbow) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Fuller sat out the season opener but could be on track to return this weekend against the Titans, where he'd be the second wideout behind DeAndre […]

DeMarcus Lawrence Expected To Play Sunday

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (groin) didn't practice on Wednesday, but the team is not concerned about his availability for Week 2 against the Giants on Sunday night. Lawrence had six tackles and a sack in Week 1 against the Panthers and should be fine to play. Fire him up as a stud IDP […]

Corey Davis Gets In Limited Practice

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (hamstring) was limited in practice Wednesday. This shouldn't be an injury that keeps Davis from playing in Week 2 against the Texans unless he makes it worse this week in practice. The 23-year-old had six catches on 13 targets for 62 yards in the season opener. With tight end […]

Dak Prescott Has Ankle Injury

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (ankle) practiced in full on Wednesday. It doesn't sound like his injury is serious, but it's something to keep an eye on heading into Week 2 against the Giants on Sunday night. Prescott's limited weapons in the passing game showed up in the season opener, as he threw for only […]

Sony Michel, Jacob Hollister Limited Wednesday

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) and tight end Jacob Hollister (hamstring) were limited in practice on Wednesday. It remains up in the air whether Michel will make his NFL debut in Week 2 against the Jaguars, but Rex Burkhead's (concussion) injury may play a part. If both Burkhead and Michel are […]

Rex Burkhead Misses Practice Wednesday

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (concussion) missed practice on Wednesday and is in the concussion protocol. That's bad news as the team prepares to face the tough defense of the Jaguars in Week 2 on the road. Burkhead remains the best fantasy option in this backfield when he's healthy, but he's now a […]

Michael Thomas, Ted Ginn Miss Practice

New Orleans Saints wide receivers Michael Thomas (illness) and Ted Ginn (knee) both missed practice on Wednesday. Thomas should be fine, while Ginn's knee injury is a bit worrisome. Thomas remains the team's unquestioned top wideout and had a whopping 16 catches on 17 targets for 180 yards and a score in the season opener. […]

Jarvis Landry Practicing In Full

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (thigh) practiced in full on Wednesday. Landry should have no problems suiting up in Week 2 and has an excellent matchup against a Saints secondary that almost gave up 50 points to Bucs quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick in Week 1. Last year's leader in receptions, Landry had seven grabs on […]

Olivier Vernon Misses Another Practice

New York Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. The Giants have been optimistic that Vernon can return soon, but it might be another week before we see him make his season debut while dealing with a high ankle sprain. If he's out for a second straight week, that will be […]

Cameron Maybin Scratched From Lineup

Seattle Mariners outfielder Cameron Maybin (elbow) was scratched from the starting lineup on Wednesday with a sore elbow. Guillermo Heredia will start in center field in Maybin's place and will bat ninth against Padres lefty starter Joey Lucchesi. Maybin has actually lost fantasy value moving from Miami to Seattle, where he's hit just .227 with […]

James Paxton Won't Travel With Team This Weekend

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher James Paxton (illness) is dealing with a virus and won't travel with the team to face the Angels this weekend in Anaheim, according to manager Scott Servais. It means that the left-hander won't get to face the Angels in a favorable matchup this weekend. Paxton has been the team's best starter […]

Marquise Goodwin Misses Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (thigh) will not practice on Wednesday and is in line to be questionable for Week 2 against the Lions. Goodwin put up a donut for fantasy owners in the season opener because of his injury, and he might not play this weekend. If he sits out, receiver Pierre […]

Carson Wentz, Darren Sproles Limited Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee), running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) and wide receiver Shelton Gibson (knee) were all limited in practice on Wednesday. Wentz will sit out another week in favor of Nick Foles. Sproles should be fine to play in Week 2 against the Buccaneers, but he's nothing more than a flex play […]

Ezekiel Ansah Hopeful Of Playing In Week 2

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) underwent an MRI exam that didn't show a significant injury. He's now hoping to play in Week 2 against the 49ers, according to a source. Ansah did manage a sack in the first half last Monday against the Jets before leaving the game. His return is essential to […]

Matt Barkley Released With Injury Settlement

The Cincinnati Bengals released quarterback Matt Barkley (knee) from the Injured Reserve with an injury settlement on Wednesday. Jeff Driskel will move forward as the main backup to Andy Dalton. The Bengals are set to face the Ravens in Week 2 on Thursday night.

Taylor Lewan Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday and was sent home and told to rest by the medical staff. That's not a good sign for the team's top offensive lineman heading into a matchup against a Texans team with a strong pass rush. Quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) is also dealing […]

Marcus Mariota Should Play In Week 2

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (elbow) practiced on Wednesday and is "feeling good," according to head coach Mike Vrabel. Barring a setback, Mariota should be good to go for Week 2 against the Texans. How productive he'll be if he plays is an entirely different story. The Titans are dealing with injuries to their two […]

Hayden Hurst Ruled Out

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst (foot) didn't practice all week and is ruled out for the Week 2 game against the Bengals on Thursday. Wide receiver Janarion Grant was limited the last two days but is questionable. Hurst may not be able to return for at least another week or two. In his […]

Sterling Shepard Limited Wednesday For Week 2

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (back) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Shepard should be able to play in Week 2 in a great matchup against the Cowboys on Sunday night. The 25-year-old had five grabs (seven targets) for 48 yards in the season opener. While he's no longer the first option for […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins Limited

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Wide receiver Jaydon Mickens (knee) was also limited. ASF came into Week 1 as a sleeper tight end, but he caught just three passes (five targets) for 25 yards. He should be able to play in Week 2 against the Patriots, where […]

Raiders Signing Johnathan Hankins

The Oakland Raiders are signing free-agent defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins on Wednesday. Unsurprisingly, the Raiders had trouble getting to the quarterback in Week 1 against the Rams after trading away their best edge rusher in Khalil Mack. Oakland is also beat up on the defensive line already, so Hankins could have an immediate role. How […]

Kenneth Dixon Placed On IR

The Baltimore Ravens placed running back Kenneth Dixon (knee) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and signed running back De'Lance Turner to the active roster. That escalated quickly. Dixon just hasn't been able to avoid knee injuries in his career. He also missed all of the 2017 season. With Dixon out of the picture for at […]

Davante Adams Dealing With Shoulder Injury

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) was held out of practice with a shoulder injury on Wednesday. He fell on it awkwardly in the Week 1 win over the Bears but said he feels good about his chances of playing in Week 2 against the Vikings. Adams should be able to suit up. […]

Luke Kuechly Practices In Full

Carolina Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly (knee) practiced in full on Wednesday. Kuechly had 11 tackles and two assists in the Week 1 win against the Cowboys and remains a strong IDP linebacker as long as he's healthy. The 27-year-old has had problems with head injuries in recent seasons and hasn't played a full year since […]

C.J. Anderson, Curtis Samuel Not Practicing

Carolina Panthers running back C.J. Anderson (illness) and wide receivers Curtis Samuel (heart) and Damiere Byrd (knee) are all sitting out of practice on Wednesday. Anderson should be able to play this week but remains the second fiddle behind Christian McCaffrey and an already-depleted offensive line. Samuel is dealing with complications from an irregular heartbeat […]

Trai Turner Has Concussion

Carolina Panthers offensive guard Trai Turner (concussion) is on the injury report on Wednesday and did not practice. Both left tackle Matt Kalil and right tackle Daryl Williams are already on the Injured Reserve, so losing Turner for any amount of time might be a disastrous blow. Carolina's weak O-line will certainly hurt the rushing […]

Jeremy Hellickson Back From DL

The Washington Nationals activated starting pitcher Jeremy Hellickson (wrist) from the disabled list on Wednesday. It's unclear what role the veteran right-hander will fill to close out the year, but he has expressed a willingness to pitch out of the bullpen. Hellickson had been solid for the Nats before his injury, going 5-3 with a […]

Marlon Mack Practicing Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) is practicing on Wednesday for the third time in a row dating back to last week. Mack was inactive in Week 1 against the Bengals but has a better shot to make his season debut this weekend against the Redskins. With Mack out in the season opener, rookie […]

Niko Goodrum Injured Wednesday

Detroit Tigers infielder Niko Goodrum (quadriceps) left the game early on Wednesday after suffering a quadriceps contusion after colliding with outfielder Christin Stewart. Goodrum struck out in his only plate appearance before getting injured. He's batting only .236/.310/.431 on the season but does have 16 home runs, 52 runs scored, 45 RBI and 12 stolen […]
