Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson suffered chest, back, and head injuries during Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Rams.

Watson finished the day with just one […]

Rashaad Penny Active For Week 9

Philadelphia Eagles running back Rashaad Penny is active for just the second time this season. He'll suit up against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday with Boston Scott sidelined due to personal reasons. Penny's only game experience this season came back in Week 2 when he totaled 14 scrimmage yards. Given his role as the No. […]

Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers (ankle) exited during the second half of Week 9 versus the Atlanta Falcons.

Kendre Miller Questionable To Return In Week 9

New Orleans Orleans rookie running back Kendre Miller (ankle) is officially questionable to return in Week 9 versus the Chicago Bears. He departed in the second half after totaling one rush, one catch, and 31 receiving yards. This injury has minimal implications for fantasy football or the Saints' backfield. Jamaal Williams will continue to operate […]

Tyron Smith Active For Week 9 Versus Eagles

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (neck) is officially active for Week 9 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. The presence of Smith is key for the Cowboys as they look to compete with the NFC East-leading Eagles, and it bodes well for […]

Cordarrelle Patterson Returns In Week 9

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) returned during the second half of Sunday's game versus the Minnesota Vikings. He had been listed as questionable but made his way back to the sidelines before re-entering the game on offense and special teams. The veteran playmaker remains the No. 3 running back in Atlanta and can […]

Marquise Goodwin Won't Return In Week 9

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (head) underwent concussion testing and has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. He had zero catches on two targets prior to his departure. Depth receivers Cedric Tillman and James Proche should see more snaps for the duration of Goodwin's absence.

Andrew Thomas, Evan Neal Officially Returning Sunday

New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas (hamstring) and right tackle Evan Neal (ankle) are active for Week 9 versus the Las Vegas Raiders. Both players had been listed as questionable. Thomas makes his return following a seven-game absence while Neal is back after missing two contests. Getting both tackles back is huge for a […]

DeeJay Dallas Questionable To Return In Week 9

Seattle Seahawks running back DeeJay Dallas (shoulder) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. He is officially questionable to return. The 25-year-old had not logged a touch prior to his departure, so his injury shouldn't prove to be too costly for the Seahawks or fantasy managers. Kenneth Walker III and […]

Jedrick Wills Jr. Carted Off With Knee Injury

Cleveland Browns left tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. (knee) was carted off the field while wearing an air cast during the second half of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. He will not return. This appears to be a severe injury for the 24-year-old, and a long-term absence of any variety would be a crushing blow […]

Jimmie Ward, M.J. Stewart Won't Return Sunday

Houston Texans safeties Jimmie Ward (hamstring) and M.J. Stewart (shoulder) have been ruled out for the remainder of Week 9 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both players had initially been listed as questionable to return before having their statuses downgraded. This is a crushing loss for the Houston secondary, which will now need mid-week addition […]

DJ Chark Jr. Active For Week 9

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. (elbow) is officially active for Week 9 versus the Indianapolis Colts. He had been listed as questionable, though the expectation was that he would be able to play on Sunday. Indeed, the 27-year-old will be active, suiting up as Carolina's No. 2 wide receiver behind Adam Thielen. His […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Ruled Out, Dare Ogunbowale To Handle Kickoffs

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quad) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 9 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Running back Dare Ogunbowale is the team's emergency kickoff specialist, and he kicked the ball off to open the second half. It's too early to tell whether the Texans will attempt another field goal […]

Jimmie Ward, M.J. Stewart Questionable To Return Sunday

Houston Texans safeties Jimmie Ward (hamstring) and M.J. Stewart (shoulder) exited during the first half of Week 9 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both players are questionable to return. The two defensive playmakers had combined for four tackles prior to their departures. Look for DeAndre Houston-Carson, who was signed to the active roster this past […]

Zaire Franklin Officially Inactive Sunday

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Zaire Franklin (knee) is officially inactive for Week 9 versus the Carolina Panthers. This was widely expected after the team downgraded him to "doubtful" on Saturday. He has been a playmaker on defense this year, amassing 1.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and a whopping 102 tackles. In his absence, E.J. Speed should […]

Josh Downs Officially Active For Week 9

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (knee) is officially active for Week 9 versus the Carolina Panthers. He had been listed as questionable but was widely expected to play. He will indeed suit up, ranking as a solid fantasy WR3 after totaling 23 catches for 315 yards and two touchdowns over the last four weeks. […]

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) and wide receiver Mack Hollins (ankle) exited during the first half of Week 9 versus the Minnesota Vikings.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn (concussion) was carted off the field after suffering a serious injury during the first half of Week 9 versus the Atlanta Falcons.

Khari Blasingame Evaluated For Concussion Sunday

Chicago Bears fullback Khari Blasingame (head) exited during the first half of Week 9 versus the New Orleans Saints. He is being evaluated for a concussion. The 27-year-old didn't touch the ball before departing but had offered steady protection for quarterback Tyson Bagent. Chicago doesn't have any other fullbacks on the roster, so look for […]

Tyquan Thornton Active For Week 9

New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (foot) is officially active for Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. He had been listed as questionable. The second-year receiver could be in line for an expanded role after Mac Jones lost his top target, Kendrick Bourne (knee), to an ACL tear. Thornton isn't involved enough to justify […]

Richie James Won't Return In Week 9

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Richie James (knee) remains on IR and was not activated for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins. He had been listed as questionable but will not play. The 28-year-old hasn't been healthy since Week 2, and now he'll have to wait at least one more week before he can make […]

Robbie Chosen Won't Play In Week 9

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Robbie Chosen (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs in Germany. Chosen continues to be the odd man out when the Dolphins decide which receivers will play. The 30-year-old is off the fantasy radar in all leagues. In the meantime, Chase Claypool, Cedrick Wilson […]

Durham Smythe, Braxton Berrios Suiting Up Versus Chiefs

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe (ankle) and wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) are active for Week 9 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. They had both been listed as questionable heading into the weekend. Given that Miami's offense runs through Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Raheem Mostert, having Smythe and Berrios healthy won't necessarily be […]

Terron Armstead, Xavien Howard Active For Week 9

Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) and cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) are active for Week 9 versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Both players had been listed as questionable. Having Armstead healthy will be huge for the Dolphins as they look to protect Tua Tagovailoa versus a strong Kansas City defense. Meanwhile, the return of […]

Puka Nacua Expected To Play In Week 9

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) is expected to play versus the Green Bay Packers on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Nacua has been the biggest surprise this season, catching 61 passes for 795 yards and two touchdowns en route to being the fantasy WR4 overall through […]

Patriots' Defense Has Streaming Appeal Against Washington

The New England Patriots' defense is a fringe streaming option in Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. While the Washington offense has shown signs of life at times, including last Sunday when it dropped 31 points on the Eagles, there's no denying that Sam Howell is susceptible to turnovers and an awful lot of sacks. […]

Chad Ryland Off Fantasy Radar Despite Favorable Matchup

New England Patriots kicker Chad Ryland should be avoided in fantasy football ahead of Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. While Washington's suspect defense has allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers, Ryland has been a bottom-of-the-barrel option at the position this year. The rookie is just 9-for-13 on field goals and […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Trending Up For Week 9

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson should be a solid fantasy football option for Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. For starters, Washington traded away defensive ends Chase Young and Montez Sweat this week, leading to far less pressure around the line of scrimmage. Washington was already a middle-of-the-pack team in terms of defending […]

Hunter Henry Quickly Becoming Non-Factor

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has suddenly fallen off the fantasy football map and is not a reliable option ahead of Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. Consistently playing between 80 and 90 percent of snaps during his first five games this year, the 28-year-old hasn't seen a snap share above 62 percent […]
