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 […]

Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Expected To Start

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) are both expected to start in Week 6 against the Jets. Castonzo will be making his season debut as quarterback Andrew Luck's blind-side protector. Mack will be making just his second start of the season. While he should be the main option […]

Didi Gregorius To Have Tommy John Surgery

New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius (elbow) underwent an MRI exam on Thursday and will have Tommy John surgery. It's a big blow to a Yankees squad that was bounced in the Division Series by the division-rival Red Sox. It's good news that Gregorius is having the surgery this early in the offseason, but he's […]

Keon Broxton Removed From NLCS Roster

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Keon Broxton has been removed from the roster for the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers in favor of relief pitcher Xavier Cedeno. Broxton was mainly used as a pinch-runner and defensive replacement in the Division Series, going 1-for-2 at the plate with a solo home run in two games.

T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle Ruled Out

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) have officially been ruled out for Week 6 against the Jets. Hilton and Doyle didn't practice all week, so it's no surprise here. They should have a better shot at returning next week with more time to rest. Tight end Eric […]

Greg Olsen Listed As Questionable

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is officially questionable for Week 6 against the Redskins, although head coach Ron Rivera likes Olsen's chances of playing. Olsen is attempting to return after fracturing his foot in the season opener. He could be on a snap count, but Olsen is a low-end TE1 given how poor […]

Rangers Interview Joe Girardi

The Texas Rangers are interviewing ex-Yankees manager Joe Girardi on Friday for their managerial opening, according to two sources. Girardi had a 910-710 record with the Yankees over 10 seasons and directed them to a World Series title in 2009. Texas has also done background work on Padres minor league manager Rod Barajas, Dodgers third […]

Luke Voit Secures First Base Job

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit essentially secured the first base job going into next spring with his strong play to end the 2018 season. “He grabbed that job, there’s no question about it," manager Aaron Boone said. Voit was a godsend for the Yanks late in the year when Greg Bird flopped. The […]

Isaiah Crowell Questionable For Week 6

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Colts. He was limited in practice on Friday and will be a game-time decision Sunday morning. Ultimately, we'd expect Crowell to play after running all over the Broncos for over 200 yards in Week 5. But if he […]

Jets Secondary To Be Short-Handed Against Colts

New York Jets cornerback Buster Skrine (concussion) is out and cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) is doubtful for Week 6 against the Colts, severely limiting the team's secondary against quarterback Andrew Luck. The good news for New York is Indianapolis will likely be without receiver T.Y. Hilton and tight end Jack Doyle. Still, this is great […]

Leonard Fournette Has Chance To Play In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) did some running on Friday and has a chance to play in Week 7, according to head coach Doug Marrone. That's great news, as it was reported earlier this week that there was a chance that Fournette could be held out until after the team's bye in Week […]

Jalen Ramsey Questionable To Face Cowboys

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey (knee) was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Cowboys. Ramsey was added to the injury report on Thursday. The Jags may not push to have Ramsey play, as they're facing arguably the worst passing offense and set of receivers in the […]

John Ross Questionable For Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (groin) is questionable for Week 6 against the Steelers. Ross sat out last weekend but has practiced this week and looks ready to return in a matchup against a weak secondary. However, Ross is a boom-or-bust WR4/5 option and can't be trusted in standard-sized leagues if he plays. He's […]

Giovani Bernard, Tyler Kroft Officially Out

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) and tight end Tyler Kroft (foot) have both been officially ruled out for Week 6 against the Steelers. Neither player was expected to return this weekend, but Bernard could be back in the fold as the complement to Joe Mixon next week. Mixon has RB1 upside in a […]

Derrick Willies Questionable Against Chargers

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Derrick Willies (shoulder) fell on his shoulder in practice on Friday and was limited, and he's now questionable for Week 6 against the Chargers. The Browns are also without Rashard Higgins for two to four weeks, so Rod Streater might have to fill in as the third wideout on Sunday. Jarvis […]

Chris Hogan Returns To Practice Friday

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan (thigh) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out on Thursday. It looks like Hogan should be fine to play on Sunday night in the showdown against the Chiefs. However, Hogan hasn't really been involved in this passing game in an offense that has a lot of mouths […]

Von Miller Lacking For Big Plays

Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller has four sacks on the season but hasn't had one since the second quarter of Week 2 against the Raiders. The three-time All-Pro pass rusher knows he needs to make more plays if his team is to pull out of their three-game losing streak. Denver has 11 sacks in five […]

Devonta Freeman Still Not Practicing

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (foot) remains absent from practice on Friday, meaning that it's unlikely he'll suit up in Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Freeman was making a return in Week 5 after a three-game absence due to a knee injury he suffered in the season opener, and now it looks like he'll […]

T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle Not Expected To Play

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) missed practice again on Friday and are not expected to play in Week 6 against the Jets. Both players also sat out last Thursday against the Pats. Indy's offense has limited options around them, but Chester Rogers and Ryan Grant should […]

Eric Ebron Has A Shot To Play

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (ankle, knee, quadriceps, shin) returned to practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday. It's a good sign that he'll be able to play in Week 6 against the Jets, although he still might be listed as questionable. We ultimately believe he'll be able to play, and […]

Rams Run Defense Has Been Terrible

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said the team's run defense the last two weeks has been "terrible, without question." The Rams remain undefeated at 5-0, but they allowed the Seahawks and Vikings to each score 31 points the last two weeks. Seattle ran for 190 yards and a touchdown in Week 5, while […]

Julian Edelman Praises Josh Gordon

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman believes that Josh Gordon can be a huge weapon for this team. "Dude works hard, great teammates," Edelman told reporters Thursday, via the Patriots' official website. "I really think he can be a really big piece for us. Gordon has played just 36 snaps on offense in the […]

Julio Urias Added To NLCS Roster

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urias has been added to the roster for the National League Championship Series against the Brewers in favor of lefty reliever Scott Alexander. Ross Stripling also was left off the roster. Most of Urias' 2018 season was spent rehabbing after left shoulder surgery. He only tossed four innings in the […]

Jason Peters May Have Suffered Torn Biceps

Philadelphia Eagles left tackle Jason Peters (biceps) is believed to have suffered a torn biceps on Thursday against the Giants, although he told reporters after the game he was OK. Sources are saying that doctors are optimistic that Peters will be able to play through his injury, although an MRI exam is pending. Not many […]

Randall Cobb, Geronimo Allison To Work With Rehab Group

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion, hamstring) will both work in the rehab group again on Friday. Both players were listed as limited on Thursday, so that should be the same again Friday. It's good news that they are getting work in, but their statuses for Monday night against […]

Aaron Rodgers To Practice Friday

The plan is for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) to practice on Friday. The Packers continue to hold Rodgers out of practice early in the week, but he is getting his work in later in the week and continues to play through his knee injury on game days. He should be fine for […]
