New York Jets wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice and is set to play against the New England Patriots on Sunday, according to Ian Rapoport. The first-round rookie has been sidelined since injuring his ankle in the season opener against Tennessee, where he caught one pass for 30 […]

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell (finger) will miss his fourth consecutive game after being ruled out for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Adam Schefter.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quad) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Adam Schefter. Hall injured his quadriceps late in Week 3 against Detroit and will now miss his third consecutive game. Braelon Allen has taken full advantage of the opportunity, rushing for […]

Hey RotoBallers! With many breakout players and high-end handcuffs on the waiver wire, managers may need to cut ties with a non-producing player whose stock has dropped to improve their roster. While it may be difficult to drop these once-proven assets, they have not contributed much to your roster, and managers looking to get ahead […]

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White (shoulder) played 60% of the offensive snaps in his Week 5 return against the New York Giants, but that playing time translated into just 20 yards from scrimmage. He managed 18 yards on seven carries and caught his only target for two yards, while Jacory Croskey-Merritt rushed for 82 […]

Streaming tight ends in fantasy football occasionally lands you gems that you can start for the rest of the season. More often, though, it's necessary. It's tough to predict TE performance before the season. Even highly drafted options like Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland have been extremely disappointing this season. He broke out last […]

Five weeks in, the numbers have started to separate the real roles from the ones that were just a good Sunday. Week 6 still has a clear split on the board. Buffalo at Las Vegas sits near 53.5 total, Dallas at Green Bay is priced around 52.5, and both Arizona-Rams and the Monday night Commanders-49ers […]

New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough is becoming increasingly difficult to trust in standard fantasy lineups after two performances that bear little resemblance to his impressive start to 2026. His first three games produced 917 passing yards and eight touchdowns, numbers that briefly made him an appealing option for managers searching for quarterback help. That […]

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate experienced a sharp drop in production in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Houston Texans, managing just one reception for six yards on five targets. The disappointing outing came one week after the fourth overall pick caught nine of 12 targets for a career-high 145 yards against Baltimore. Tate also […]

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle caught four of seven passes for 24 yards in the 17-14 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Once again, Waddle delivered a lackluster effort and is on pace for his worst statistical season. In six games, Waddle has caught 22 of 38 targets for 228 yards and a touchdown, averaging […]

After a strong start to the 2026 season, Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has regressed significantly. In the first two games, Corum had 22 carries for 131 yards, outperforming starter Kyren Williams in efficiency. Since Week 3, he has not had more than six carries in a game and has averaged just three […]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs has failed to produce in back-to-back weeks. In the first three games this season, Downs had 14 receptions for 186 yards and 11 targets in Week 3, following wideout Alec Pierce's ankle injury. In Weeks 4 and 5, Downs caught just six of 10 targets for 63 yards, while […]

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze has struggled to produce to start the 2026 season. In five games, Odunze has caught 17 of 29 targets for 273 yards and no touchdowns, averaging just 6.8 half-PPR fantasy points per game. Despite his lack of production, his usage has been elite, with over 85% of snaps and […]

The Indianapolis Colts have released veteran wide receiver Darius Slayton, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Slayton has not appeared in a game with the team this season, having […]

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been a non-factor in fantasy despite the injury to starting back Travis Etienne Jr. In four games this season, Kamara has had 28 carries for 86 yards and two touchdowns, plus 13 receptions for 41 yards.
