Kalif Raymond Looks To Step Up In Teammate's Absence

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond is projected to have an increased role over the next two weeks as teammate Jameson Williams serves a suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing substance policy. Raymond had already started to see an uptick in production with Williams on the field, catching seven passes for 112 yards and one […]

Jake Moody Officially Declared Out For Week 8

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (right ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. This hardly comes as a surprise given that Moody missed all three practices this week and hasn't played since initially suffering the injury in Week 5. Injuries to Moody and Matthew Wright have led the 49ers […]

Jordan Mason Cleared To Play In Week 8

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) practiced in a full capacity on Friday. He has been removed from the final injury report and will play against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8. Although Mason hasn't missed a game yet this season, the shoulder injury has hindered him ever since Week 6 against the […]

Patriots Defense Can't Be Trusted Against Jets

The New England Patriots defense remains off the fantasy radar heading into Week 8 against the New York Jets. While the unit has shown promise with impressive performances from players like Jahlani Tavai, Kyle Dugger, and Christian Gonzalez, New England's defense still ranks 26th in fantasy points, forcing just four turnovers through seven games. They're […]

Joey Slye Off Fantasy Radar Amidst Tough Stretch

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye has endured a tough stretch of games and drops off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 8 clash with the New York Jets. Slye has gone 5-for-5 on extra points and just 2-for-3 on field goals over his last three games, seeing reduced volume as the Patriots limp […]

Hunter Henry Carries Momentum Into Top-12 Ranking

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has returned to the fantasy radar heading into Week 8 against the New York Jets. Henry only had one fantasy-relevant game with Jacoby Brissett as his quarterback, so he didn't appear to have a whole lot of upside when Drake Maye took over the offense. However, he quickly […]

Drake Maye Still A High-End QB2 Option Against Jets

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye makes his first start against a divisional opponent in Week 8 when he takes on the New York Jets at home. The 22-year-old has been impressive through his first two career starts, completing 65.7 percent of his passes for 519 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions. He also has […]

Demario Douglas Still A Solid Volume-Based Play

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas remains an appealing fantasy option given his volume within the offense. Although he was only targeted three times last week, that was likely a product of Douglas battling an illness and missing some key snaps. In the two weeks prior, when he was fully healthy, he had totaled […]

Kayshon Boutte Not Yet Dependable Ahead Of Week 8

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has led the position group in snaps over the last two weeks, but his low target share as a deep threat in the offense has kept him off the fantasy radar for the time being. The second-year receiver emerged out of nowhere in Drake Maye's first start in […]

Week 8 NFL RB Power Rankings - Top 12 Running Backs: Swift, Mixon, Gibbs Surging

Robinson has quietly been one of the NFL’s most consistent performers this season, finishing between RB10 and RB22 in all six of his games so far. That trend should continue in Week 8 agains...

Five Bold Predictions for Week 8 in the NFL: Jordan Mason Sets Career-High, Travis Kelce Busts

Love has been outstanding this season, averaging 20.6 fantasy points per game and totaling 15 passing touchdowns. He has also thrown at least two touchdowns in every game this season. More importa...

DeForest Buckner Logs Full Practice Thursday

Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle DeForest Buckner (ankle) upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday. The veteran defender was designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday and remains eligible to practice without being activated until November 13. Of course, the Colts could opt to activate him prior to that deadline, perhaps as early […]

Roman Wilson Sidelined As Week 8 Prep Begins

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson (hamstring) did not participate in practice on Thursday. As the Steelers prepare for Week 8 against the New York Giants, it appears they could be without their rookie wide receiver. The 23-year-old has offered minimal contributions so far this season, appearing in just one game amidst absences caused by […]

Aaron Rodgers Limited As Patriots Prep Continues

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee, hamstring) logged a second consecutive limited practice on Thursday. The veteran signal-caller hasn't missed a snap since Week 1, but his injury status is one to monitor as it could impact his availability for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. The last time he faced New England, […]

Gabe Davis Remains Limited Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) was officially listed as a limited participant on Thursday, maintaining that status for the second day in a row. Davis has managed to play in all seven games this year, catching 18 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns. Even if he suits up against the Green Bay […]

Evan Engram Upgrades To Full Participant Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday. He had been limited on Wednesday. This improvement in status is great news for Engram and suggests that he should be able to play against the Green Bay Packers in Week 8, barring some sort of unexpected setback. The […]

Travis Etienne Jr. Limited Again Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) logged his second consecutive limited practice on Thursday. The 25-year-old picked up the injury during Week 6 in London and hasn't been able to play since then. Although it sounds like he has a real chance to play this Sunday against the Green Bay Packers, Etienne is […]

Christian Darrisaw Injures Knee Against Rams

Minnesota Vikings left tackle Christian Darrisaw (knee) was injured late in the second half of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Rams and subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the contest. The 25-year-old had previously been a beacon of availability, playing 100 percent of snaps in five of his six games this season. If […]

Micah Parsons, DaRon Bland Don't Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons (ankle) and cornerback DaRon Bland (foot) were both absent from practice on Wednesday. As prep for Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers begins, the Cowboys find themselves short two key defensive playmakers. Parsons has been sidelined since Week 4 against the Giants and now appears to be at risk […]

Taysom Hill, Juwan Johnson Limited As Week 8 Prep Begins

New Orleans Saints tight ends Taysom Hill (rib) and Juwan Johnson (shoulder) were both limited participants during practice on Wednesday. On one hand, any sort of appearance on the injury report is worth monitoring as it means the player in question is less than 100 percent. However, fantasy managers should find some optimism in the […]

Derek Carr Doesn't Practice Wednesday, Not Expected To Play In Week 8

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (oblique) did not participate in Wednesday's practice. The 33-year-old has been sidelined since Week 5 and is expected to miss his third consecutive game this Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to head coach Dennis Allen. Specifically, Allen noted that Carr has resumed throwing, which is a step […]

Nick Bosa Limited As Week 8 Prep Begins

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa (elbow) was limited during Wednesday's practice. While any sort of appearance on the injury report is less than ideal, it's good to see that Bosa was able to get on the field in some capacity as the 49ers begin to practice ahead of Week 8 versus the Dallas […]

Jake Moody Absent From Practice To Begin Week 8

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (right ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice. As of now, it appears the second-year kicker is trending toward missing his third consecutive game. The kicking position has suddenly been a revolving door for San Francisco, which has depended on the legs of Moody, Matthew Wright, and Anders Carlson […]

Jordan Mason Limited In Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice. The 25-year-old running back and interim starter with Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) sidelined, Mason finds himself on the injury report once again but is trending toward playing against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8. While the last few games haven't treated […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports For NFL RBs: Week 8 Updates for Christian McCaffrey, Aaron Jones, Jonathan Taylor, David Montgomery

Below is our fantasy football injuries report for running backs in Week 8, as of October 23. The injury statuses for various NFL running backs are up in the air for Week 8, including Christian McCaffrey, Aaron Jones, Jonathan Taylor, and David Montgomery. As the fantasy football season continues, every decision, transaction, and lineup change […]

Vikings Defense Worth Starting Against Rams

The Minnesota Vikings defense should be inserted into most fantasy lineups ahead of their Week 8 clash with the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams' offense has been underwhelming this season, and even if they get Cooper Kupp (ankle) back this week, they'll still face a tough task in the form of the Vikings. Minnesota has […]

Will Reichard Looks To Stay Perfect In Week 8

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard has maintained perfection through the first six games of his rookie campaign, and he'll look to keep that streak going against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 8. Reichard is 12-for-12 on field goals and 18-for-18 on extra points, nailing four kicks from 50-plus yards out. […]

Jalen Nailor Carries Momentum Into Week 8 Primetime Matchup

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor is riding the momentum of a strong Week 7 into this Thursday's clash with the Los Angeles Rams. The 25-year-old turned in his highest reception and yardage totals of the season last Sunday, catching four of five targets for 76 yards. It's been an inconsistent year for Nailor, who […]

Jordan Addison Enters Week 8 In Flex Range

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison is a worthwhile WR3/flex option heading into Week 8 against the Los Angeles Rams. While he's always a threat to score touchdowns, he doesn't have major upside in his current role against a respectable Rams passing defense. Addison has been held to three catches in all four of his […]
