Isiah Pacheco Won't Practice

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco (concussion) will not practice on Wednesday as he remains in the league's concussion protocol.

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (ankle) is dealing with an ankle injury, but head coach Mike McDaniel isn't concerned about him.

Jaylen Waddle's High-Ankle Sprain "Not Overly Severe"

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) has a high-ankle sprain, according to head coach Mike McDaniel, but it's "not overly severe."

Kyler Murray Under The Weather Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (illness) has a "holiday bug" and won't practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. However, there isn't any concern about Murray's availability the rest of the week or for the Week 17 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 26-year-old signal-caller has enough time to rest up and get […]

Cole Kmet Won't Practice Wednesday

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (knee) will not practice on Wednesday after injuring his knee in the Week 16 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Before his injury on Sunday, Kmet played well in a good matchup with four catches for 107 yards on five targets. Receiver Darnell Mooney is in the league's concussion protocol […]

Broncos To Bench Russell Wilson For Final Two Games

The Denver Broncos will bench quarterback Russell Wilson for the final two games of the regular season, thus preserving their financial flexibility for the offseason, according to sources.

Darnell Mooney In The Concussion Protocol

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (concussion) self-reported concussion-like symptoms when he came to the team's facilities on Monday and is in the league's concussion protocol, according to head coach Matt Eberflus.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed on Wednesday that wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion) is still in the league's concussion protocol "but he's progressing well."

Jauan Jennings, Ross Dwelley Miss First Practice In Week 16

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (concussion) and tight end Ross Dwelley (ankle) were both held out of practice on Thursday.

The 26-year-old […]

Israel Abanikanda Limited Again On Thursday

New York Jets rookie running back Israel Abanikanda (illness) had his repetitions limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday due to an illness. Meanwhile, wide receiver Jason Brownlee (ankle) was a full-go after he was limited on Wednesday. Neither player is relevant in single-year fantasy leagues, but it's worth noting that Abanikanda […]

Matt Breida Managing Hamstring Injury

New York Giants running back Matt Breida (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring injury in Week 16 and was listed as limited on the team's first practice report on Thursday.

Jalen Nailor Still In Concussion Protocol

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and has yet to practice this week.

Carolina Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble (illness) and Ian Thomas (ankle) were both limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday.

Los Angeles Chargers All-Pro pass-rusher Joey Bosa (foot) had his 21-day practice window opened on Thursday and was listed as a limited participant in practice, but he was also officially ruled out from playing in the Week 16 contest against the Buffalo Bills this Saturday. Bosa can now practice with the team but must be […]

Durham Smythe Stays Limited Thursday

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe (ankle) maintained his limited practice participation for the second straight day on Thursday. It's unlikely that Smythe's ankle injury is going to keep him from being active in a big Sunday matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. The 28-year-old tight end hasn't been on the fantasy map […]

Tony Pollard Finally Getting Healthy?

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (leg) said on Thursday that at the start of the season, he was still working through his January leg fracture more than he realized.

Dontayvion Wicks Stays Limited Thursday

For the second straight day this week, Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was limited in the team's practice. Wicks should be able to suit up this weekend against the Carolina Panthers and he could have an even bigger role if both Christian Watson (hamstring) and fellow rookie Jayden Reed (chest, toe) […]

Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon Both Limited Again Thursday

Green Bay Packers running backs Aaron Jones (knee, finger), AJ Dillon (thumb) and rookie Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) were all limited in Thursday's practice for the second straight day this week.

Nico Collins, Noah Brown Limited Thursday

Houston Texans wide receivers Nico Collins (calf) and Noah Brown (knee) were both limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Collins missed last week's overtime win over the Tennessee Titans but could definitely return to the field this weekend to face the Cleveland Browns if he can put in a […]

Japanese free-agent right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto will sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers for more than $300 million. ESPN's Jeff Passan reports that the agreement is for 12 years and $325 million. Yamamoto could be one of the most dominant pitchers to come out of Japan, which would be saying a lot. Eventually, fellow countryman and […]

Brian Robinson Jr. Misses Thursday's Practice

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) and Jonathan Williams (concussion) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Robinson also missed the Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams and is now trending toward missing his second straight contest. Fantasy managers banking on B-Rob being active in Week […]

Zay Flowers Limited Thursday With Foot Injury

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers (foot) was limited in the team's practice on Thursday for their first practice of the week. Flowers injured his foot at the very end of Sunday night's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Ravens aren't concerned that the injury is serious or that it will keep him […]

Noah Fant Added To Week 16 Injury Report

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (toe) was added to the Week 16 injury report on Thursday, but he was still able to put in a full practice session. It's worth noting, but as long as Fant practices again on Friday, he should be just fine to play this Sunday in Tennessee against the Titans. […]

Geno Smith Puts In Second Straight Full Practice

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (groin) appears to be on track to play in Week 16 against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday after putting in a second straight full practice on Thursday. Smith has missed the last two games, although he was active as the backup to Drew Lock in Monday's upset win over the […]

Kenneth Walker III Misses Another Day Of Practice

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (shoulder) missed a second straight day of practice on Thursday due to a new shoulder injury that he apparently picked up in Monday night's upset win over the Philadelphia Eagles. We'll have a better idea of Walker's status on Friday, but he's firmly up in the air to […]

Jaguars Unlikely To Have Trevor Lawrence In Week 16

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (concussion) missed practice again on Thursday and is now unlikely to play in Week 16 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Head coach Doug Pederson said earlier this week that Lawrence was "progressing well" in the league's concussion protocol, but it apparently hasn't been enough to get him onto the field […]

Four Teams Still In On Yariel Rodriguez

The Toronto Blue Jays, Pittsburgh Pirates, Houston Astros and New York Yankees are still in the bidding for Cuban right-handed free-agent Yariel Rodriguez, according to sources. The teams in the running aren't expected to make a decision on the 26-year-old until Japanese right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto chooses his team, though. Rodriguez formally became a free agent […]
