Demarcus Robinson A Risky Upside Play For Week 5

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson is still searching for his first game of the season with double-digit fantasy points.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has streaming appeal as a fringe top-12 player at the position heading into Week 5 versus the Green Bay Packers.

Matt Prater Questionable To Kick In Week 5

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (left knee) returned to practice in a limited capacity on Friday.

Joey Slye Remains Top-12 Kicker For Week 5

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye looks to build off last week's productive outing with a big game against the Miami Dolphins in Week 5.

Patriots Defense A Great Streamer Versus Miami

The New England Patriots' defense should garner significant fantasy appeal heading into Week 5 versus the Miami Dolphins.

The absence of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been a […]

Hunter Henry Can't Be Trusted Against Dolphins

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has been a disappointment in fantasy football this season, contributing two catches and fewer than 20 yards in three of his four games so far.

Demario Douglas Still Tough To Trust Against Dolphins

New England Patriots wide receiver Demario Douglas is an unreliable fantasy football option heading into Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins.

Tyler Lockett Limited During Wednesday's Walkthrough

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (thigh) was a limited participant on Wednesday. Given that the Seahawks only held a walkthrough, Lockett's participation status is merely an estimation. The reliable veteran receiver has caught 18 passes for 199 yards through four games, but he's still looking for his first touchdown of the 2024 season. Lockett's […]

Kyle Pitts Held Without A Catch In Week 4

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts was unable to haul in any of his three targets during Sunday's Week 4 win over the New Orleans Saints.
