Ryan Flournoy Back on the Fantasy Radar in Week 15?

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy popped off in Week 14 with nine catches for 115 yards and one touchdown. The production mostly came in a game script that forced the Cowboys to throw a lot, combined with CeeDee Lamb (concussion), who left the game in the first half and did not return. Flournoy showed […]


Cowboys Not Worried About George Pickens' Effort Level

Senior news writer Kevin Patra of NFL.com reported Tuesday morning that Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer spoke with wide receiver George Pickens about what most reporters and analysts considered a "lack of effort from Pickens" in the Cowboys' Week 14 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Schottenheimer said he "wasn't making a mountain out of […]


Does Philip Rivers Provide any Fantasy Value in Week 15?

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers has a "very real chance" of starting versus the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15 after a crazy turn of events for the Colts in Week 14, when Daniel Jones (Achilles) and Riley Leonard (knee) both got injured, leaving the Colts with no options at the quarterback position. Additionally, Anthony Richardson […]


Chris Rodriguez Jr. Remains a Touchdown-Dependent RB3 for Week 15

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed for 52 yards on 10 carries in the Commanders' 31-0 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. He was the only somewhat bright spot in what was a really tough afternoon for the Commanders team. Rodriguez has performed well of late, scoring nine or more fantasy points […]


Bam Knight With a Tough Week 14, Still Holds Fantasy Value Heading Into Week 15

Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight's lack of volume and efficiency finally caught up to him in Week 14. The 24-year-old running back has been a top-21 running back over the past three weeks, and on Sunday against a stout Los Angeles Rams defense, he was stuffed on the ground, rushing for only 16 yards […]


DK Metcalf Spends Night in Hospital Due to Stomach Pain

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday morning that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf stayed overnight in a Baltimore hotel after going to a local hospital following the game. Metcalf was experiencing stomach pains on the flight, and, out of an abundance of caution, the team's medical personnel sent him to a nearby hospital. He's […]


Blake Corum a Must-Add Off the Waiver Wire

Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, dominated once again on Sunday, rushing for 128 yards on 12 carries (10.7 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in the Rams' 45-17 rout over the Arizona Cardinals. Corum has now scored three touchdowns in the past two weeks and has rushed for 209 […]


Devin Neal Dominates Backfield Touches on Sunday Against Buccaneers

New Orleans Saints rookie running back out of Kansas, Devin Neal, dominated the backfield touches on Sunday against the Bucs in the Saints' 24-17 victory. Neal carried the ball 19 times for 70 yards and a touchdown, and added one reception for 14 yards. On the afternoon, Neal scored 14.9 fantasy points in half PPR […]


Kyle Pitts Sr.'s Target-Share Increase Leading to a Strong Finish?

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had a fantastic Week 13 with 82 receiving yards on eight targets, and is looking to continue that production in Week 14 against the Seattle Seahawks, who have been vulnerable to the tight end position, allowing the fifth most fantasy points to tight ends. What's most encouraging for […]


Treylon Burks Providing Fantasy Value After Highlight-Reel Catch in Week 13?

Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks had a spectacular grab in Week 13 on Sunday Night Football against the Denver Broncos, where he "mossed" the cornerback and delivered a highlight-reel catch that now puts him on the fantasy football radar. Although the catch was spectacular, Burks still has quite a bit to prove: he hauled […]


Brian Branch Feared to Have Suffered an Achilles Injury

NFL Insider Tom Pelissero reported that Detroit Lions standout defensive back Brian Branch (Achilles) is feared to have suffered an Achilles injury on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys. Branch will have further tests on Friday morning, but another potential blow to a Detroit team coming off a massive win in a high-scoring Thursday Night […]


Jayden Daniels Tracking Towards a Week 14 Return

NFL Insider Tom Pelissero reported that Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and is tracking to return in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. Important to note, head coach Dan Quinn said earlier in the week that he was not cleared for contact, and it's unclear at […]


Justin Herbert Trending in the Right Direction to Play Monday Night

NFL Insider Tom Pelissero reported that Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (hand) was not only limited in practice on Thursday, but mentioned that Herbert's goal is to play on Monday Night Football against the Philadelphia Eagles and that he is trending in the right direction to do so after undergoing surgery to stabilize a […]


Devaughn Vele Emerging as the Saints' Clear No. 2 Passing Option?

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele has been earning more playing time over the past three games, and in the last two specifically, he has been making the most of his opportunities. Over the past two weeks, he has earned 15 targets and hauled in 11 of them for 130 receiving yards and one […]


Aaron Rodgers Appears to be Healthier Heading into Week 14

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport spoke on Good Morning Football on Wednesday and reported that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) will get a little healthier this week, leading to Week 14's crucial AFC North matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Both teams are sitting at (6-6) at the top of the division, and the winner, for […]


Adonai Mitchell's Stock on the Rise After 12 Targets in Week 13

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell has seen his stock rise since being traded to the New York Jets and being provided the opportunity to line up as the Jets' No. 1 wide receiver with Garrett Wilson (knee) on the Injured Reserve. In his three games since playing with the Jets, he's seen 25 […]


Jalen McMillan Expected to Have his 21-day Practice Window Opened

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported that Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan (neck) is expected to have his 21-day practice window opened on Wednesday, a source said. The Bucs also opened fellow wide receiver Mike Evans' (collarbone) practice window Wednesday just in time for the end-of-season run for the (7-5) Buccaneers. McMillan had himself […]


Mike Evans' Practice Window Opened, Returning to Practice on Wednesday

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Wednesday morning that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' legendary wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) is having his practice window opened off Injured Reserve, and he'll return to practice Wednesday. A quicker-than-expected return from a broken clavicle, Evans has been medically cleared. This is fantastic news for Mike Evans and the […]


Amon-Ra St. Brown's Week 14 Availability Up in the Air

Michigan Sports Writer Dave Birkett reported that Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell spoke on Costa & Jansen with Heather on 97.1 The Ticket and said that wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown's (ankle) availability vs. Dallas probably won't be known until gameday or the day before. St Brown suffered a tough ankle injury early in […]


Christian Watson Goes Off on Thanksgiving Day, Should Not be on Waivers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson gave his Packers fans and his fantasy managers something to cheer about on Thanksgiving Day, as he hauled in four of his 10 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown. The 10 targets were the most he has seen all season, and with the Packers desperately looking for […]


Blake Corum One of Fantasy Football's Top Handcuffs, Must-Add Off Waivers

Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, had himself a fantastic Week 13 with 81 rushing yards (11.57 YPC) on 11 carries and a touchdown. More importantly for Corum fantasy owners, Kyren Williams left the game for a bit with an ankle injury. However, he eventually returned, scored a touchdown, and […]


Chris Rodriguez Jr. Continues to Showcase his Flex Appeal, Must-Add off Waivers

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. continued to lead the Commanders in running back touches in Week 13's 27-26 loss to the Denver Broncos with 11 carries. Backfield mates Jeremy McNichols had six, and Jacory Croskey-Merritt only had four. Rodriguez has clearly cemented himself as the running back to own in this Commanders backfield, […]


Trey Benson a Must-Add Toward the End of the Fantasy Season?

Arizona Cardinals second-year running back out of Florida State, Trey Benson (knee), was close to returning in Week 13, but was ruled out on Friday after participating in practice for the second straight week. It was frustrating news for fantasy managers, as most owners were expecting Benson back by now, and had been holding him […]


Devin Singletary Not a Strong Fantasy Option in Week 13

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary had 14 carries for 47 yards in Week 12's 34-27 loss in overtime to the Detroit Lions. While the 14 carries appear encouraging, the 3.36 YPC does not. Additionally, Tyrone Tracy Jr. played 71 percent of the snaps and out-touched Singletary 23 to 14. Additionally, Tracy Jr. continues […]


Jacory Croskey-Merritt Still Worth a Hold in Fantasy?

Washington Commanders rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt has seen his role decrease over the past few weeks as Chris Rodriguez Jr. saw a season-high 15 carries in Week 11 and ran for a very solid 5.27 YPC. Meanwhile, in that same Week 11 game, Croskey-Merritt had only a 27 percent snap share, and although he […]


What Does Kimani Vidal's Fantasy Outlook Look Like Moving Forward?

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal has been the Chargers' primary running back while Omarion Hampton (ankle) has been working his way back from an ankle injury he suffered in Week 5. Recent reports have suggested that Hampton has been limited in practice all week and is expected to return to the lineup. The […]


What Will Sean Tucker's Role be Moving Forward?

With the Tampa Bay Buccaneers getting healthy at the running back position, specifically Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) appearing to be suiting up in Week 13 against the Arizona Cardinals, Sean Tucker's value is heading in the wrong direction after his Week 11 explosion in Buffalo, where he scored 33 fantasy points (half PPR) with 106 […]


Emanuel Wilson Reverts to a Backup Role on Thanksgiving

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson was limited to four carries on Thursday and was reverted to his regular backup role with Josh Jacobs (knee) returning to the starting lineup after missing Week 12 with his injury. Wilson was expected to be a bit more involved given his production in Week 12, but at […]


Brenton Strange an Intriguing Fantasy Option Moving Forward

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange returned from the Injured Reserve in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals and showed no signs of rust. He converted on all five of his targets for 93 receiving yards. Strange has always been a favorite target of quarterback Trevor Lawrence, and given their history together, Strange provides a […]


John Metchie III Cementing Himself as top Pass-Catching Option for the Jets?

With Garrett Wilson (knee) currently on the Injured Reserve, the New York Jets have been looking to see who would step up and be the team's top pass-catching option. Over the last two weeks, third-year receiver out of Alabama, and a former second-round pick, John Metchie III, has stepped up and answered that question. The […]
