Rhamondre Stevenson Dealing With Stomach Bug, Should Play Sunday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (illness) missed Friday's practice due to a stomach bug, according to Karen Guregian of MassLive. However, the expectation is that Stevenson will play Sunday versus Philadelphia. The Oklahoma product emerged as a strong dual-threat option last season, amassing 1,040 rushing and 421 receiving yards en route to finishing […]

Cooper Kupp IR Stint Is "Definite Possibility"

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring) could be placed on injured reserve this Saturday. When asked about Kupp potentially requiring an IR stint, head coach Sean McVay said, "I would say there is a definite possibility." We should find out by 4 p.m. ET on Saturday whether the Rams make this move. If […]

Romeo Doubs Questionable For Week 1 Versus Bears

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's season opener against the Chicago Bears. He was unable to practice on Wednesday before upgrading to a limited participant on Thursday and Friday. Green Bay will hope he can suit up since Christian Watson (hamstring) has already been ruled out. Regardless […]

Christian Watson Ruled Out For Week 1

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's season opener against the Chicago Bears. He was unable to practice on Wednesday or Thursday due to the injury and evidently won't be healthy in time for kickoff on Sunday. With Romeo Doubs (hamstring) questionable, we could see a heavy reliance […]

Dax Milne Placed On Injured Reserve

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dax Milne (groin) has been placed on injured reserve. He had missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, making it highly unlikely he'd be available for Week 1. Now, with his placement on IR, he's ineligible to return until Week 5 at the earliest. Milne wasn't a major contributor in the passing […]

Joe Flacco Hoping To Sign With NFL Team

Free agent quarterback Joe Flacco is still looking for an NFL contract and believes teams will be interested in signing him once the season begins. "I can still play," he told Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. "When people are really pressed to win some games, if they have to call on somebody, then they'd be more […]

Kadarius Toney Still Has Quarterback's Trust

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney struggled on Thursday night, catching just one of five targets for one yard. He also had three drops, including one that went into the hands of a Lions defender and resulted in a pick-six. Despite Toney's costly mistakes in the 21-20 loss, quarterback Patrick Mahomes emphasized that he […]

Tank Dell To Return Punts In Season Opener

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell is not listed as a starter on the team's official pre-Week 1 depth chart. Instead, Robert Woods will start opposite Nico Collins, with Dell presumably third in the pecking order. Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports that Dell will operate as the primary punt returner ahead of […]

Dolphins Defense Should Be Avoided In Week 1

The Miami Dolphins' defense should be avoided in all fantasy leagues as they take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1. Not only did Miami's already-mediocre unit lose some of its firepower following a meniscus injury to Jalen Ramsey, but the Chargers' offense is quite dominant with the likes of Justin Herbert, Austin Ekeler, […]

Jason Sanders A Fringe Fantasy Option In Week 1

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is a borderline top-12 fantasy kicker heading into Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Sanders was solid at times last season, but never enough to solidify himself as a stable fantasy option week in and week out. Heading into the 2023 campaign, Sanders' upside gets a boost thanks to […]

Durham Smythe Not On Fantasy Radar

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe is not a viable fantasy option heading into Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. While Smythe is listed first on the depth chart following Mike Gesicki's offseason departure, the 28-year-old needs to show a steady flow of production in the passing game before he can even be considered […]

Jaylen Waddle Opens 2023 With Impressive Upside

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (oblique) is a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside ahead of Sunday's season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite being second on the depth chart behind Tyreek Hill, Waddle has shown time and time again that he can carve out his own role in the offense. Even while catching […]

Tyreek Hill Opens Season As High-End WR1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is a must-start option heading into Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 29-year-old is coming off a huge season in which he tallied 1,710 yards and finished as the overall WR2 despite Tua Tagovailoa missing significant time due to head injuries. Likely lining up against Asante Samuel […]

De'Von Achane Should Be Avoided In Week 1

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) should be left on the bench in most fantasy leagues as he gears up for his NFL debut versus the Los Angeles Chargers. While Achane has earned significant hype and is a glaring dynasty "buy," there's less optimism about his immediate value and production. Miami is expected to […]

Raheem Mostert Can Be Started In A Pinch

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert is listed atop the depth chart heading into Week 1 versus the Los Angeles Chargers. However, given Miami's focus on passing the ball as well as the presence of up-and-coming rookie De'Von Achane, Mostert is certainly not a must-start in fantasy football. Rather, fantasy managers should only start him […]

Tua Tagovailoa Has Top-12 Upside Thanks To Receivers, Matchup

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa should be a top-12 fantasy option in Week 1. He's taking on a Los Angeles Chargers secondary that produced a 74.6 PFF grade last season and ranks 14th in the NFL (per PFF) heading into 2023. The unit isn't bad, but it's certainly not strong enough to consider sitting Tagovailoa […]

Late-Round Lotto Tickets - 2023 Fantasy Football Draft Picks That Could Pay Off Big

Landing "your guy" with a first-round pick in fantasy football is an exhilarating feeling. From the pre-pick anticipation to finally pulling the trigger on one of your favorite studs, this can be a dream come true. But perhaps even more exciting is finding a diamond in the rough in the form of a late-round sleeper. […]

Will Simpson Enjoying Success At The Plate

Oakland Athletics prospect Will Simpson is quite new to the organization, having recently joined the team as a 15th-round pick in the 2023 draft. The University of Washington product has impressive bat-to-ball skills and undeniable power, though there are concerns about his plate discipline and K/BB rate over a larger sample size. But what hurt […]

Mitch Neunborn Delivers Five No-Hit Innings

Philadelphia Phillies minor league pitcher Mitch Neunborn, a native of Johannesburg, South Africa, signed with the organization a couple of weeks before his 26th birthday back in June. That signing represented the first MLB-affiliated deal for Neunborn, and while being 26 in High-A can be a deterrent in the bigger picture, the right-hander has certainly […]

Junior Caminero Launches Four Homers In Big Week

Tampa Bay Rays infield prospect Junior Caminero was signed out of the Dominican Republic by the Guardians in 2019, then traded to the Rays in 2021. He has quickly blossomed into Tampa Bay's top prospect. His swing is a thing of beauty, generating plenty of speed at just the right angle so that he can […]

Robby Snelling Tosses Five No-Hit Frames

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Robby Snelling was the 39th overall pick in 2022, joining the organization on an above-slot deal after dominating the Nevada prep circuit. The 6-foot-3 southpaw has already touched 97 mph with his fastball, and given the fact that he's just 19 years old, he should gain additional velocity over the […]

Justyn-Henry Malloy Posting Fantastic Results In Triple-A

Detroit Tigers third base prospect Justyn-Henry Malloy is one of the most well-rounded hitters in Minor League Baseball, showing advanced patience and discipline while still making quality contact and tapping into his power. He was acquired from the Braves last December and has quickly pleased the Tigers' organization with his strong offensive production at the […]

L'Jarius Sneed On Track To Play Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs cornerback L'Jarius Sneed (knee) is "good to go" for Thursday's season opener against the Detroit Lions, head coach Andy Reid told the media. Reid did add that they'll still evaluate Sneed on a day-by-day basis, but he's certainly trending in the right direction. The 26-year-old was fantastic last season, racking up 108 […]

Chris Jones Absent As Chiefs Prepare For Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs star defensive lineman Chris Jones (personal) did not report to practice on Sunday as his holdout persists, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Jones' continued absence is particularly noteworthy because, as Rapoport notes, with the Chiefs scheduled to play on Thursday night, missing practice today is equivalent to missing a Wednesday practice ahead […]

Nick Chubb To See More Third-Down Usage

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb is expected to be utilized more on third downs this season, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com. Elaborating on his role, Cabot wrote, "They're also planning to use Chubb more on third down this year, especially while [Jerome] Ford gets back up to speed, and Deshaun Watson will […]

Sean Tucker Wins No. 2 Job Over Chase Edmonds, Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker will occupy the No. 2 role behind Rachaad White in Week 1, according to JC Allen of Sports Illustrated. The undrafted rookie's rise to prominence has earned him the backup job over Chase Edmonds and Ke'Shawn Vaughn, who will instead round out the bottom of the depth chart. […]

Ben Skowronek Could Spend Most Of Season On Special Teams

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Ben Skowronek will "likely play more on special teams this season than in the offense," according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. Even with Cooper Kupp (hamstring) potentially missing Week 1, Skowronek isn't expected to have much involvement in the offense. Instead, Van Jefferson, Tutu Atwell, and Puka Nacua will […]

Terence Steele Signs Five-Year Extension With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Terence Steele has agreed to a five-year, $86.8 million extension, according to Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News. The deal includes $50 million guaranteed with a max value of $91.8 million. This is a massive accomplishment for Steele, who started 13 games before tearing his ACL last season. It also […]
