Jordan James Expected to Move Down Depth Chart

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Jordan James (finger) is expected to move down the depth chart following the trade that sent Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. to San Francisco. Given Robinson's experience at the NFL level, he will likely be the top option to slot in as the No. 2 running back behind […]


Dillon Gabriel Slated to Crack 53-Man Roster

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel is slated to claim a spot on the 53-man roster officially. Earlier on Sunday, the Browns opted to release quarterback Tyler Huntley, leaving them with four options on their depth chart. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Browns have planned to keep four quarterbacks on their roster for […]


Will Howard Misses Final Preseason Game

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Will Howard (hand) was unable to suit up in their preseason finale on Thursday against the Carolina Panthers. The Ohio State product missed the entirety of the preseason due to a broken bone in his right hand. While the former sixth-round selection had an opportunity to claim the No. 2 job […]


Shedeur Sanders Set to Make 53-Man Roster

According to Adam Schefter, Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders is set to make the 53-man roster. Earlier on Sunday, the Browns released Tyler Huntley, which leaves them with four quarterbacks on the roster. However, the Browns have planned to keep four quarterbacks on their roster, which means the Colorado product could be in the […]

Is Jacory Croskey-Merritt the Commanders' Starting RB1? Fantasy Football Outlook and RB Update

The Washington Commanders' backfield has been at the center of many discussions during the preseason. This past week, the Commanders traded presumed starter Brian Robinson Jr., which leaves veteran Austin Ekeler and potentially seventh-round rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt as the lead options. During the preseason, the seventh-round rookie looked rather impressive and is making a strong […]


Quinshon Judkins Remains Unsigned Amid Contract Standoff

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins has yet to sign a rookie contract with the Cleveland Browns. In fact, Judkins is the only player from the 2025 NFL Draft class who has yet to sign his rookie salary. According to Michael David Smith of NBC Sports, the Browns continue to view this situation as […]


Jacory Croskey-Merritt Sits Out in Preseason Finale, May Start in Week 1

Washington Commanders rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt was held out of their preseason finale, along with many key starters. While Croskey-Merritt was nursing a minor shoulder injury early in the week, seeing him receive rest before the regular season is a telling sign for his expected role. Instead, Chris Rodriguez Jr. took five carries on […]


Tre' Harris Dealing with Undisclosed Injury

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris (undisclosed) was unable to participate in team drills during the week and was held out of action during their preseason finale against the San Francisco 49ers. Harris is currently competing alongside fellow rookie Keandre Lambert-Smith and veterans Keenan Allen and Quentin Johnston for a starting job in […]


Tai Felton Held Out of Friday's Game With Arm Soreness

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Tai Felton (arm) was held out of Friday's preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans due to arm soreness. The Maryland product was lifted from practice earlier in the week but was unable to progress enough to suit up. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as this injury could […]


Trevor Etienne Shows Improvement in Preseason Finale

Carolina Panthers rookie running back Trevor Etienne showed some improvement during Carolina's preseason finale on Thursday evening. Facing the Steelers, Etienne ran the ball just three times, but racked up 26 yards. His longest run of the evening went for 28 yards. This was also his longest run of the preseason. During their second game, […]


Buccaneers Waive Shilo Sanders

According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are waiving rookie safety Shilo Sanders. The buccaneers signed Sanders, who is the brother of Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, an undrafted free agent following April's NFL Draft. Sanders attended Colorado alongside his brother. Sanders spent his last two collegiate seasons in Colorado […]

Austin Ekeler Viewed as "Key" Piece of Washington Offense

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler is still viewed as a "key" piece of the offense, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic.

Terry McLaurin May Not Find Suitor Willing to Give Him Desired Contract

According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, Washington Commanders Terry McLaurin may not find a team willing to give him the desired contract of $30-plus million per year. Instead, Russini's sources tell her that most teams view McLaurin as a $27-$28 million player. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor McLaurin's status as he continues a […]

Charlie Condon Goes Deep on Sunday

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon continued to stay hot in the batter's box on Sunday. Facing Double-A Harrisburg, the former third overall pick went 1-for-2 with a home run and a walk. Since the start of the month, Condon has held a strong .288/.422/.500 line with a .922 OPS, three doubles and two […]


Leodalis De Vries Earns Promotion to Double-A

Athletics shortstop prospect Leodalis De Vries is earning the call to join Double-A. This is a surprising move as the shortstop is only 18 years old. De Vries was the headliner piece that the Athletics acquired in the deal that sent relief pitcher Mason Miller to the San Diego Padres before the trade deadline. Throughout […]


Andrew Painter Rebounds at Triple-A

Philadelphia Phillies right-handed pitching prospect Andrew Painter was able to bounce back in his most recent outing at Triple-A. After allowing a hefty nine hits and seven earned runs in his outing on August 10 against Scranton Wilkes/Barre, Painter tossed five innings of three-run ball (two earned) en route to picking up the victory over […]
