DeVante Parker Not Spotted At Thursday's Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (concussion) was not spotted at practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Parker suffered a concussion in the Week 8 loss to the Miami Dolphins and remains in the NFL's concussion protocol. Given the 30-year-old's previous history with head injuries, it seems likely that he won't be […]

Hayden Hurst Feeling Better

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst (illness) was under the weather on Wednesday and didn't practice, but he was apparently feeling much better on Thursday and put in a full practice session. Hurst hasn't been anywhere near the TE1 radar in fantasy in his first year in Carolina, as most of the team's aerial targets […]

DJ Chark Jr. Returns To Practice On Thursday

After being held out of Wednesday's practice, Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. (elbow) was listed as limited on Thursday. Meanwhile, fellow wideout Laviska Shenault Jr. (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day. Chark was wearing a red non-contact jersey at practice, so his availability for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts could […]

Michael Gallup Back From Illness

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (illness) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday due to an illness. Gallup is still searching for his first touchdown of the season as he heads into a Week 9 date with the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles. His production -- 20 catches on […]

Taysom Hill Has Reps Capped Again Thursday

New Orleans Saints quarterback/tight end Taysom Hill (hip) was listed as limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's unlikely that Hill's hip injury will put him in danger of missing the Week 9 game against the Chicago Bears. The Swiss Army Knife of the Saints offense had nine carries for 63 […]

Michael Thomas Returns To Full Practice Session

After he was limited with an illness on Wednesday, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas put in a full practice on Thursday. Thomas played through his illness in the Week 8 win over the Indianapolis Colts and caught four of his seven targets for 68 yards. The 30-year-old should be feeling better this weekend […]

Justin Herbert Still Listed With Finger Injury

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) remains on the Week 9 injury report but was able to put in a full practice on Thursday. Herbert fractured his left finger in Week 4 but hasn't missed any games after a convenient Week 5 bye. He was excellent in the Week 8 beatdown of the Chicago […]

Gerald Everett Trending Towards Playing In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (hip) was listed as a full practice participant on Thursday. It means that Everett is trending toward playing on Monday night against the New York Jets after he was held out of the Week 8 Sunday night victory over the Chicago Bears. Everett's impending return is bad news […]

Joshua Palmer Not Practicing On Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) was not seen on the practice field on Thursday after getting hurt in the Sunday night win over the Chicago Bears in Week 8. The good news is Palmer still has two more days to try and return to practice before the Chargers must release their final […]

Graham Gano Going On Injured Reserve, Giants Signing Randy Bullock

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (knee) will have surgery on his left knee and will be placed on Injured Reserve. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Giants are signing former Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock to their practice squad, pending a physical, according to sources. Bullock was with the Giants in 2016. New York […]

Kyler Murray Removed From The Injury Report

After putting in another full practice on Wednesday, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (knee) has been officially removed from the Week 9 injury report on Thursday. It's the same thing that happened last week, but Murray wasn't ultimately activated from Injured Reserve. There's a greater chance that happens this weekend, but it won't guarantee that […]

Matthew Stafford Not Seen At Practice Thursday

There was no sign of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) in the period of practice open to the media on Thursday. If Stafford is a non-participant, it will be his second straight missed practice after he suffered a sprained UCL in his right thumb in the Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. […]

Logan Thomas Looks Ready For Week 9

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (heel) put in a full practice session on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. The oft-injured tight end isn't dealing with a serious injury and should be fine to play in Week 9 against a New England Patriots defense that has been generous to the position […]

Curtis Samuel Missing From Practice Again Thursday

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel (toe) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Unless Samuel is able to practice in some capacity on Friday, he's likely to be held out of the Week 9 contest versus the New England Patriots. The 27-year-old veteran was injured in the Week 8 loss to the […]

Graham Gano Still On The Injury Report

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice for the second straight day due to a left-knee injury. Gano has played the last two games with the injury, so it's safe to assume he will be active in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders, albeit likely at less than 100 […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Remains Limited

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) continues to have his practice repetitions limited on Thursday and was listed as limited for a second straight day. The Giants continue to take things slow with the second-year wideout after he suffered a torn right ACL in his rookie campaign in 2022. The 22-year-old pass-catcher didn't […]

Saquon Barkley Given Another Limited Tag

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was listed as limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Remember, Barkley missed Weeks 3-5 due to a high-ankle sprain, so he's most likely just receiving some extra maintenance heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Still, the 26-year-old's status […]

Daniel Jones Practicing In Full Thursday

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (neck) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's injury report after being officially limited on Wednesday. Head coach Brian Daboll said on Wednesday that Jones has no limitations and is good to go for Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders after missing the last three games. It's […]

Josh Downs Added To Week 9 Injury Report

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Josh Downs (knee) was added to the Week 9 injury report due to a knee injury. He was officially listed as limited. The impressive 22-year-old wideout must have injured himself in practice on Thursday. Mid-week injuries usually are never a good thing, but Downs will have another day to test […]

Michael Wilson Trending In The Wrong Direction

Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Michael Wilson (shoulder) is trending in the wrong direction in Week 9 after missing his second day of practice on Thursday. Wilson is going to have to return to the practice field on Friday to have a shot at playing this Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. The 23-year-old first-year wideout […]

Emari Demercado Missing From Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Emari Demercado (toe) is missing his second straight day of practice on Thursday. The Cardinals also signed Tony Jones Jr. to the active roster from their practice squad on Thursday, which might shed more light on Demercado's status for the upcoming Week 9 game on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Back On The Practice Field Thursday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (shoulder) has returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session while managing a shoulder issue. It seems to always be something with Beckham at this stage of his career, but his return to practice at least gives him a shot to be active in Week 9 against […]

Robert Woods Remains Out Thursday

Houston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods (foot) is missing his second straight day of practice this week due to a foot injury. Woods is not expected to play in Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which would be his second straight absence after being inactive in the Week 8 loss to the Carolina Panthers. […]

Dameon Pierce Still Absent From Practice

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce (ankle) is not practicing again on Thursday as he deals with an ankle injury he suffered in the Week 8 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Pierce's status for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is still being determined, and a league source said it's being contemplated […]

Drake London Misses Another Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (groin) wasn't seen on Thursday at the portion of practice open to the media. If London doesn't make it onto the field at all, it will be his second straight missed practice this week after injuring his groin in the Week 8 loss to the Tennessee Titans. The 22-year-old […]

Royals Designate Nate Eaton For Assignment

The Kansas City Royals designated outfielder Nate Eaton for assignment on Thursday and also reinstated eight players from the 60-day injured list now that the World Series has concluded. In his second major-league season in 2023, Eaton went 4-for-53 (.075) with an RBI, three stolen bases and two runs scored in 28 games played. In […]

Nationals Decline Option On Victor Robles

The Washington Nationals declined their $3.3 million 2024 club option on outfielder Victor Robles (back) on Thursday. Robles remains under team control and is eligible for salary arbitration this offseason. The 26-year-old former top prospect has been a bust for the Nationals to this point and played in only 36 games in 2023 due to […]

Nelson Cruz Announces Retirement

Long-time designated hitter Nelson Cruz announced his retirement from professional baseball on The Adam Jones Podcast on Thursday. The 43-year-old Dominican slugger had a phenomenal 19-year big-league career that saw him make seven All-Star teams and win four Silver Slugger awards. Cruz finishes his illustrious career with 464 home runs, 1,325 RBI and 84 stolen […]

Corey Seager Wins Second World Series MVP Award

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager helped the Rangers win their first-ever World Series title on Wednesday night by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks, and he also was named World Series MVP for the second time in his career, becoming just the fourth player in MLB history to do so. Seager and Reggie Jackson are the only […]

Giants Outright Mark Mathias To Triple-A

The San Francisco Giants outrighted infielder Mark Mathias (shoulder) to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday. Mathias spent the 2023 season with the Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates, slashing .226/.333/.258 with no home runs, two doubles, six RBI, three stolen bases and six runs scored in 27 games. He played in only five games in San Francisco before […]
