Mark Ingram II Questionable To Return In Week 8

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II (knee) is questionable to return against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday afternoon. He caught one pass for two yards before exiting.

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.

Now, it appears Flacco has lost his backup job to Mike […]

Myles Gaskin A Healthy Scratch Once Again

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. The 25-year-old has logged offensive snaps in just one game this season (back in Week 5) and has absolutely no fantasy relevance. He should be left on waivers in all leagues, including dynasty formats.

Xavien Howard Suiting Up Sunday

Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) is active for Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. He had been listed as questionable after closing out the week with limited participation in practice.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) is not expected to be active for the team's Week 8 contest against the Chicago Bears, according to ESPN.com's Adam Schefter.

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (personal) is not expected to be released, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Therefore, if the team fails to trade him, they expect him to play later in the regular season. Akers was inactive in Week 6 and is not expected to play in Week 8, either. Through five […]

Chase Claypool Unlikely To Be Traded

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool is not expected to be traded ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. As NFL.com's Ian Rapoport writes, "To deal a young weapon who could help rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett, it would have to be perfect. No team is close to that yet." He adds that "barring a dramatic change, it […]

Albert Okwuegbunam, Marlon Mack Inactive For Week 8

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam and running back Marlon Mack are both healthy scratches for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (head) has cleared concussion protocol and will be active for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. He had been listed as questionable, but that designation was merely a placeholder as the team waited for him to clear protocol. St. Brown enjoyed an elite […]

Micah Parsons Expected To Play In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons (shoulder) is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. He had been listed as questionable.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Ronald Jones took to Twitter and voiced displeasure about his role on Saturday. In a tweet, he wrote, "Sure would like a RELEASE right about now."

Dolphins Defense Remains Appealing In Week 8

The Miami Dolphins' defense is coming off a strong performance in Week 7 and could be poised for another big game against the Detroit Lions this coming Sunday.

Jason Sanders Teetering On Fantasy Relevance

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is a borderline streaming option against the Detroit Lions in Week 8. The 26-year-old had an underwhelming start to his season, but he bounced back with one extra point and three field goals last week, including a pair from beyond 40 yards out. He ranks as the K19 in fantasy […]

Mike Gesicki Trending Up At The Moment

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has seen his stock rise after commanding 14 targets over the course of his last two games.

Chase Edmonds Off Fantasy Radars In Week 8

Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds has shown that he is not worth starting (let alone rostering) in fantasy football, including in Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. The ex-Arizona Cardinals back has just 49 yards over the course of his last three games and hasn't scored a touchdown since he found paydirt in Week […]

Tyreek Hill Remains In WR1 Tier

Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill has remained an elite option at his position this season. The 28-year-old has 26 catches for 296 over the course of his last three games. Even though Hill hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 2, he has handled an enormous share of volume in the Tua Tagovailoa-led Miami […]

Jaylen Waddle A Flashy Option In Week 8

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is poised for a potentially big game against a susceptible Detroit Lions defense on Sunday. The 23-year-old wide receiver faced some adversity earlier this season but has bounced back, catching 10 passes for 207 yards over the course of his last two games.
