Week 13 is another big week for waiver wire pickups with the fantasy playoffs just two weeks away. In this article, we'll highlight three […]

Week 12 kicked off with the Texans upsetting the Bills as 5.5-point underdogs on Thursday night.

That includes three double-digit favorites this […]

The Titans' offense hasn't been a particularly fruitful one for fantasy purposes this season. Now with Calvin Ridley (leg) out for the year, other players will be thrust into more prominent roles. Two veterans who have played a high snap share for Tennessee this season are wide receiver Van Jefferson and tight end Chig Okonkwo. […]

Thursday Night Football heads to Houston, Texas, this week for an AFC clash between the 5-5 Houston Texans and the 7-3 Buffalo Bills. The Bills rode quarterback Josh Allen's six total touchdowns to a 44-32 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week, while the Texans walked off the Titans on a 35-yard field goal […]

Adding and stashing backup running backs is one of the most important edges in fantasy football roster construction. Rather than holding players with limited upside or few pathways to meaningful production, managers should stack their bench with these contingency bets that can immediately step in for an injured starter and win you your week. That […]

We're already in Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season, and start/sit decisions are becoming more critical with the fantasy playoffs looming.

After an electric start to his NFL career for Jacory Croskey-Merritt, the rookie has hit a rough patch over his last five outings. Since his breakout 150-yard, two-touchdown performance in Week 5 against the Chargers, Croskey-Merritt has totaled just 196 yards on 65 touches. Now it seems like the rookie seventh-rounder has lost his role […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco suffered in sprained MCL during their Week 8 win over the Washington Commanders and hasn't practiced since. The 26-year-old had the Week 10 bye to rest the injury, but head coach Andy Reid said it "may take more time." Pacheco didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, which suggests that […]

Week 10 of the NFL season featured several explosive performances from the league's elite running backs. Three of the four highest-scoring fantasy performances of the year came in Week 10, with Jonathan Taylor nearly scoring 50 PPR points, De'Von Achane clearing 40, and Jahmyr Gibbs posting 38.2. Running backs off the waiver wire are typically […]

That rang true for the rookie wide receivers this week, with five total touchdowns scored, the most in any week this season. In this article, […]

In fantasy football, we have to place our bets. Whether that's dumping all of your FAAB on a potential breakout star off the waiver wire, see Puka Nacua in 2023, or trading for an underperforming player that is bound to see better days, these decisions aren't easy. But at the end of the day, while […]

In this article, we'll break down the Week 10 outlooks for three running backs: David Montgomery, Emari Demercado, and Quinshon Judkins. Each has operated in a split backfield this season, with Demercado's situation in Arizona […]

The week-to-week unpredictability of the NFL was put on display in Weeks 8 and 9 of the 2025 NFL season. Week 8 featured one of the most one-sided weeks in NFL history, while Week 9 saw both conference leaders go down. We were right to warn against the Colts in survivor pools last week, but […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) has four straight games after getting banged up in a 31-25 loss against the Eagles in Week 4. There was optimism that Irving would be able to return in Week 10 following Tampa Bay's Week 9 bye, but the 23-year-old still hasn't been able to practice […]

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) has been sidelined since Week 4, and while he's made progress in his recovery, Benson did not participate in practice on Wednesday.

Week 9 of the NFL season, unfortunately, brought another wave of injuries, but it also featured a surge in high-volume rushing performances.

Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season was an exciting one for the tight ends.

In this article, we will evaluate three fringe starters at wide receiver:  Khalil Shakir, Parker Washington, and Troy Franklin. Both Shakir […]

The Washington Commanders continue to deal with injuries all over the rosterleading into their matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football in Week 9.

The Houston Texans were missing both top wideouts in Week 8 in Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring).
