Can the Texans D/ST Deliver Again?

The Houston Texans D/ST will face a tough matchup in Week 14 as they travel to Kansas City to face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. They are still a strong starting option, although they aren't in an elite matchup to deliver a big total. Last week, the Texans held the Colts to 16 points but […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Is a Solid Starter in Kansas City

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn and the Texans have a huge game this week against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. Fairbairn made two field goals and two extra points in his team's win over the Colts, which extended his streak to seven straight games with multiple field-goal makes. In his 10 games […]

Riley Patterson Is a Shaky Start in the Cold

Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson has filled in well for Jason Sanders (hip) this season, as Sanders' IR stint has extended through the first 13 weeks of the season. Patterson has made 21 of his 23 field goal attempts overall this season and 24 of his 25 extra point attempts. He converted all four of […]

Dolphins D/ST a Top-Five Option Against the Jets

The Miami Dolphins defense has been helping to carry the team during their current three-game winning streak.

This week, they'll face the Jets, who have been one of the top 10 matchups […]

Darren Waller Is A Solid Streaming Option Against the Jets

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller is a viable streaming option if you're desperate for a tight end solution this week, as he and the Dolphins visit the Jets.

Malik Washington Continues to Get Plenty of Chances

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington is getting plenty of catches in his role as the team's second receiver, but he isn't turning those catches into big numbers, making him a high-risk play against the Jets.

Jaylen Waddle a High-End WR2 Against the Jets

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has trailed off a little bit in the last two games, with only three catches each against the Commanders and the Saints.

De'Von Achane Is An Elite RB to Build Around

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane has been one of the top running backs in the NFL over the last few weeks, and he's a great play this week against the Jets. Achane has at least 120 rushing yards to power the Dolphins to three straight wins in his last three games against the Bills, […]

Tua Tagovailoa Is Hard To Trust Even Against the Jets

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa continues to post lackluster numbers while continuing to dink and dunk. Last week, he completed 12-of-23 passes for 157 yards and an interception in his team's win over the Saints. While the team has won three straight games, he has thrown for under 200 yards in each contest with two […]

Noa Essengue Out for the Season

Chicago Bulls forward Noa Essengue (shoulder) will miss the rest of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery.

Joe Burrow Bouncing Back With the Bengals

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was back in action after a 10-week absence, but he looked as strong as ever while throwing for 261 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Bengals to a Thanksgiving night win over the Ravens.

C.J. Stroud Seeking to Continue Texans' Stampede

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud returned from his concussion last week against the Colts and led his team to a fourth straight win.

Alec Pierce Is Earning More Looks in Indianapolis

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce has become a vital contributor to the Colts' offense over the last few weeks.

In those four competitive games, Pierce has totaled 27 targets and […]

Brandon Aubrey Remains an Elite Option Thursday in Detroit

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey continues to be one of the best fantasy kickers on the board this week, when the Cowboys roll into Detroit to take on the Lions.

Ferguson has maintained consistent volume in the passing game eve with George Pickens and CeeDee […]

KaVontae Turpin Remains a Deep-League Flier on Thursday Night

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin (shoulder) has been able to put in full practices this week after being banged up and battling illness in the last few weeks, so he should be ready for his usual workload this Thursday against the Lions. Turpin typically plays about 25% of snaps for the Cowboys and gets […]
