Merrill Kelly To Start Game 1 Against Dodgers

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly will get the start for Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers on the road on Saturday. Kelly wasn't needed in the team's two-game sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers in the wild-card series. The 34-year-old is rolling coming into his first postseason start […]

Cardinals Sign Damien Williams To Practice Squad

The Arizona Cardinals signed former Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams to their practice squad on Thursday. The Cardinals are looking for some more running back depth with Keaontay Ingram currently dealing with a neck injury. Ingram was inactive for the Week 4 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, so rookie Emari Demercado was […]

Elijah Mitchell Trending In The Wrong Direction

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) was absent from practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Mitchell didn't play in the Week 4 win over the Arizona Cardinals and looks to be headed toward another inactive this Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. The 25-year-old needs to get back on […]

Juwan Johnson Still Not Practicing

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (calf) missed a second straight day of practice on Thursday and is heading towards being inactive for the second straight week in Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Johnson was hurt in pre-game warmups before the Week 4 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and did not […]

Tyquan Thornton Not Ready To Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (shoulder) did not return to practice on Thursday. Thornton spent the first four weeks on Injured Reserve, but the Patriots haven't opened up his 21-day window to be activated, and he has yet to practice this week. It means he could be spending another week on IR as […]

Braxton Berrios Upgrades To Full Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Berrios is now on track to play in Week 5 against the New York Giants on Sunday, barring a setback in practice on Friday. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are Miami's unquestioned top […]

Dawson Knox Stays Limited In Practice

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (quadriceps) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Knox might be listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report, but he figures to have a good shot at playing in London this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 26-year-old's […]

Damien Harris Practices In Full Thursday

Buffalo Bills running back Damien Harris (neck) was able to practice in full on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Barring a setback in practice on Friday, Harris should be able to play this Sunday in London against the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, the 26-year-old shouldn't be anywhere near starting fantasy lineups. He […]

Pat Freiermuth Trending In The Wrong Direction

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) is unlikely to play in Week 5 against the Baltimore Ravens after missing practice on both Wednesday and Thursday. This comes after head coach Mike Tomlin called Freiermuth "doubtful" to play earlier this week. The 24-year-old suffered a strained hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Houston […]

Justice Hill Continues To Be Limited

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (foot, hamstring) was limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Hill missed the Week 3 game while dealing with turf toe, but he returned in the Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns but played just seven offensive snaps behind Gus Edwards in a […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Limited Again Thursday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Thursday for the second straight day. Beckham could ultimately be questionable to play in Week 5 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, but he's at least back at practice after missing the last two games with an ankle injury. […]

Rashod Bateman Practicing In Full

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (hamstring) practiced in full for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Bateman missed the Week 4 victory over the Cleveland Browns but appears well on his way to returning to face the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday in Week 5. Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle), who has missed […]

Derek Carr Limited Again Thursday

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Carr suffered an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder in Week 3 but was surprisingly active in the Week 4 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Carr threw for over 300 yards in his first game […]

Kyren Williams On The Field Thursday

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams (hip) took part in the team's practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, which is a good step towards being active for the Week 5 contest at home this Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Williams is likely to be listed as limited on the final injury report for […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Still Limited On Thursday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (thigh) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Stevenson remains up in the air to play in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints, but he'll have a much better chance of suiting up on Sunday if he's able to put in a full […]

Christian Watson Still On The Injury Report

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) remains on the injury report for Week 5 after he was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday. Watson suffered a hamstring injury at the end of training camp and missed the first three games of the regular season as a result. He made his 2023 […]

Aaron Jones Starts Week With Limited Practice

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) put in a limited practice on Thursday. Jones missed Weeks 2 and 3 due to a hamstring tweak he suffered in the season opener, and he returned in last Thursday's loss to the Detroit Lions to play just 20 offensive snaps. The 28-year-old was a big disappointment […]

Javonte Williams Returns To Limited Practice

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (quadriceps) was limited in Thursday's practice after sitting out on Wednesday. Williams left the Week 4 win over the Chicago Bears early and never returned. He was initially believed to be dealing with a hip-flexor injury, but he's now listed with a quadriceps issue. Either way, the 23-year-old's injury […]

Deebo Samuel Practicing Again Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Deebo Samuel (knee, ribs) and Jauan Jennings (shin) were both on the practice field on Thursday after they put in limited practices on Wednesday. Samuel's rib injury is apparently better, but he's expected to be managing his knee injury if he's active on Sunday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys. […]

Cooper Kupp "Looks Healthy"

Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said that wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring) "looks healthy." LaFleur said that when Kupp was "gearing up for that first game" before going on Injured Reserve, "you could tell he almost could tell that something was still a little bit off. And from my vantage point, it looks […]

Billy Eppler Resigns As Mets General Manager

New York Mets general manager Billy Eppler resigned from his position on Thursday, according to the team. It comes after David Stearns took over as the team's new president of baseball operations this week. "I wanted David to have a clean slate and that meant me stepping down," Eppler said in a statement. "I hope […]

Jose Urquidy Likely To Work Out Of Bullpen

Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown said that right-hander Jose Urquidy will likely work out of the bullpen in the American League Division Series against the Minnesota Twins, which starts on Saturday in Houston. Urquidy tossed six scoreless innings last Friday in a win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, but the Astros have starters Justin Verlander, […]

Max Scherzer To Throw Live Batting Practice Friday

Texas Rangers right-hander Max Scherzer (shoulder) will throw live batting practice on Friday as the team works to determine if/when he can return to their starting rotation during the postseason. The Rangers kick off the American League Division Series on Saturday in Baltimore against the Orioles, but Scherzer might not be ready to pitch in […]

Kenny Pickett Upgraded To Full Practice Participant

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (knee) was a full practice participant on Thursday, putting him on track to start in Week 5 against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens despite suffering a bone bruise in his left knee in the Week 4 loss to the Houston Texans. It's an upgrade after Pickett was merely limited in the […]

Jonathan Taylor Practicing In Full This Week

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) practiced in full on Thursday for the second straight day. The Colts opened the 21-day window on Wednesday to activate Taylor from the Physically Unable to Perform list, but it still remains to be seen if he'll officially be activated in order to make his season debut in […]

Zay Jones Limited Again In Thursday's Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers Zay Jones (knee) and Jamal Agnew (quadriceps) were both limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Jones has missed each of the team's last two games, while Agnew was inactive in last Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons in London. Both wideouts could be on track […]

Treylon Burks Misses Another Practice Thursday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (knee) has yet to practice this week and missed another session on Thursday. Burks didn't play in the Week 4 win over the Cincinnati Bengals and appears headed for a second straight absence this Sunday when the Titans take on the Indianapolis Colts on the road. Given Burks' slow […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Still Hopes To Play In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) hasn't practiced yet this week due to an abdominal injury, but he's still hoping to play in Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers. "That's my goal," St. Brown said. The 23-year-old has at least been working on the side with trainers during practices, but fantasy managers would […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Limited Again Thursday

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) would be limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Robinson didn't appear to suffer any sort of injury in his second game of the year on Monday night in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks, so it looks […]

Daniel Jones Wants To Get Darren Waller More Involved

In training camp, it was clear that New York Giants tight end Darren Waller would be quarterback Daniel Jones' favorite target this year. However, Waller and the team's offense has struggled through four weeks, and Waller hasn't reached 30 receiving yards in either of the last two games. Waller has still been Jones' top target, […]
