Ezekiel Elliott Unlikely To Have Fantasy Appeal In Week 5

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott is not a reliable fantasy football option heading into Week 5 versus the New Orleans Saints. For the most part, he has struggled to get things going on the ground this season. That includes last Sunday when Elliott, who was supposed to see a larger workload, mustered just […]

Mac Jones Not Worth Starting In Single-QB Leagues

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is not a reliable fantasy starter heading into Week 5 versus the New Orleans Saints. While the third-year signal-caller flashed potential back in Week 1, he has come down to earth since that. In fact, versus the Cowboys last Sunday, Jones completed just 12 of 21 passes, threw two […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Added To Injury Report, Questionable For Week 5

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) was added to the injury report on Friday after practicing in a limited capacity.

Jameson Williams, Josh Reynolds Questionable For Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (non-injury) and Josh Reynolds (groin) are both listed as questionable for Week 5 versus the Carolina Panthers despite practicing in a full capacity.

Derek Carr Questionable For Week 5, Expected To Play

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) is officially listed as questionable for Week 5. However, Saints insider Mike Triplett reports that Carr "seems almost certain to play" after practicing in a limited capacity.

Juwan Johnson Not Playing In Week 5

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (calf) has officially been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game versus the New England Patriots.

Jonathan Taylor Questionable To Play In Week 5

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was a full participant in practice this week but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. Taylor is still on the PUP list, but if he's activated, that will be a very strong indication that the team expects him to play. Tennessee has a solid […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Questionable For Week 5

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (thigh) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He was limited in practice all week long.

He also hauled in two of three targets for an additional 10 yards through the air. The Patriots lost by a score of 38-3, falling to 1-3 on the season. Stevenson's relative struggles were […]

Tee Higgins Fractures Rib, Could Miss Time

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (rib) was diagnosed with a rib fracture following Sunday's loss to the Tennessee Titans. The injury "could keep him off the field for a bit," per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Tank Dell Catches Just One Pass In Week 4

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell hauled in just one of three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The rookie was unable to build on a big Week 3, instead being overshadowed by impressive games from Nico Collins and Dalton Schultz. Although Collins has cemented himself as Houston's top wide […]

Dalton Schultz Scores Touchdown In Week 4 Win

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz hauled in all three of his targets for 42 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Nico Collins Explodes For Two Touchdowns Sunday

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins turned nine targets into seven catches, 168 yards, and two touchdowns in a big Week 4 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Tyler Biadasz, Zack Martin Officially Active Versus Patriots

Dallas Cowboys center Tyler Biadasz (hamstring) and guard Zack Martin (ankle) are officially active for Week 4 against the New England Patriots. The Cowboys will be without offensive tackle Tyron Smith (ankle) on Sunday, so getting Biadasz and Martin back is huge news against a solid Patriots defense. Their presence bodes well for running back […]

Derwin James Officially Inactive For Week 4

Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James (hamstring) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He injured himself in Week 3 versus Minnesota and had been listed as doubtful heading into this weekend's west-coast clash.

Elijah Mitchell, Jauan Jennings Inactive Sunday

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) and wide receiver Jauan Jennings (shin) are officially inactive for Week 4 versus the Arizona Cardinals. Mitchell was listed as questionable after missing practice on Friday.
