The Philadelphia Eagles have signed running back Elijah Mitchell to their practice squad, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. Signing Mitchell was just one of a series of moves the Eagles made in their backfield, as the team also waived running backs Jaydon Blue and Carson Steele (shoulder) from their active roster and Ian […]

Across six games in 2026, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has completed 63.8% of his pass attempts for 1,174 yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions. The 31-year-old has also added some fantasy value with his legs, rushing for 196 yards on 45 attempts. After a relatively hot start to the year, Watson's production has slowed […]

The Philadelphia Eagles and general manager Howie Roseman are in an unfamiliar position late in October as we approach the Nov. 10 trade deadline and could be looking to sell to other championship contenders after they lost starting quarterback Jalen Hurts for the season due to blood clots. The Athletic's Zach Berman writes that a […]

The Los Angeles Rams are signing veteran kicker Brandon McManus, per Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Los Angeles released struggling kicker Harrison Mevis following their loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 5, and then lost replacement kicker Blake Grupe (knee) to a season-ending knee injury during their Week 6 defeat at […]

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn expects to make adjustments on both sides of the ball during the team's Week 7 bye, according to Nicki Jhabvala. Quinn stressed that the changes won't mean overhauling either system, but said the Commanders should look "more precise" when they return. Washington heads into the break at 1-4-1 following […]

New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) was seen working with the team in individual drills during Tuesday's practice, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN. Brown returned from his Week 1 high-ankle sprain in Sunday's divisional win against the New York Jets, but the 29-year-old is still on the Week 7 injury report and […]

Across the first four games of the 2026 season, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Jalen Brooks saw just one target and did not log a single reception. However, Arizona's trade of wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Houston Texans had moved Brooks into a much larger role in the Cardinals' passing game. Over the last two […]

The Baltimore Ravens have officially signed kicker Jake Moody to their practice squad, per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Incumbent Ravens kicker Tyler Loop has missed three field goal attempts through six games this season, which could put him at risk of losing his hold on the team's starting job. Moody appeared in nine games […]

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings has had almost no impact on his team's offense so far in 2026, catching just two passes for nine yards on five targets in four games. The 29-year-old signed with Minnesota in free agency over the offseason, but he's been buried on the team's depth chart behind wideouts Justin […]

The NFL could expand its international schedule to 10 league-run games in 2027, according to Mike Garafolo. League executive Peter O'Reilly indicated Tuesday that the NFL is considering using its full international allowance under the current collective bargaining agreement with the NFL Players Association. Owners approved the increase from eight to 10 league-run games in […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) missed his third game in a row with a quad injury after falling hard on his thigh while being tackled out of bounds in Week 3. He hasn't been able to play since then. In his absence, Jets RB Braelon Allen has led the backfield, garnering 25 […]

It would be nice if every season were like the 2024 NFL season, when we thought the future of wide receiver production in the NFL was bright. WRs Malik Nabers, Brian Thomas Jr., and Ladd McConkey (concussion) were all going off. It also appeared that WRs Xavier Worthy and Ricky Pearsall had bright futures. Rather […]

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington has drawn 14 targets over his last three games after getting just eight across the first three weeks of the season. He caught four of a season-high six targets for 25 yards and a five-yard touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 overtime victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, giving him two […]

Injuries to starting running backs often pave the way for their backups to be successful in fantasy football for some stretch of time. The Philadelphia Eagles, Seattle Seahawks, and Arizona Cardinals are all dealing with their RB1s having various ailments right now. It's not guaranteed that the backup will give you good production in the […]

We're through six full weeks of NFL action in the 2026 season. By now, we typically expect to see the beginnings of breakout seasons for several young wide receivers. Yet others may be hitting their strides on new teams, and others still have offenses that need to gel first before they become fantasy relevant. Whatever […]

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki has scored a touchdown in three consecutive games, but he's caught only seven passes during that stretch. His latest score came on his lone four-yard reception against Miami in Week 5, and the Bengals return from their bye to face Baltimore on Sunday. Gesicki has four touchdowns on just […]

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (knee) will miss the rest of the 2026 season after an MRI confirmed a torn patellar tendon, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The 31-year-old was carted off during the first quarter of Monday's 23-17 loss to San Francisco after his left knee buckled while he was running a […]

Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich said that running back Josh Jacobs "looks great," according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. "Josh, I think will definitely help for sure," Stenavich added. Jacobs was officially removed from the commissioner's exempt list on Monday and will be eligible to practice with the team for the first […]

The Miami Dolphins announced on Tuesday that they have signed free-agent kicker Zane Gonzalez to their practice squad. In a corresponding move, the team released Riley Patterson, who served as their starting placekicker for the first five games of the season. Gonzalez is returning to the Dolphins after he was cut on Aug. 19 with […]

Michael Mayer is a tight end masquerading as a TE1 in Las Vegas, and fantasy managers need to start paying attention. Even with Brock Bowers commanding attention in the Raiders' passing game, Mayer is carving out a valuable role with strong efficiency, short-area targets, and recent volume, making him a legitimate Week 7 starter. Meanwhile, […]

San Francisco's passing game lost another receiver during Monday night's win over Washington, but the setback doesn't change De'Zhaun Stribling's immediate situation. Mike Evans exited with an Achilles issue after catching three passes for 94 yards. Coach Kyle Shanahan later indicated the problem wasn't serious. For Stribling, the issue is an ankle injury that has […]

Fantasy managers drafted Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice, hoping that he would get the target share needed to re-establish himself as a potential top-10 fantasy wide receiver after showing that potential to start the 2024 season. Rice was starting to see his role creep up gradually during the start of the season before […]

The 2026 season hasn't been kind to fantasy running back depth. There are 10 running backs who are averaging 18.0+ fantasy points per game, but only 25 total rushers who are averaging 10.0+ points per game. The lack of solid RB2 options has led fantasy managers to churn the waiver wire each week, hoping that […]

Seattle offered a better update on Jadarian Price's chest injury. The rookie running back remains on injured reserve, but coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that his absence might not stretch much beyond the required minimum. That doesn't make Price a Week 7 option. The Seahawks still have one game left before he's eligible to return, […]

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (deep vein thrombosis) is set to miss significant time due to blood clots deep in his lungs that were discovered during medical scans. Technically, he played through these in Week 5. Eagles medical staff knew he had a blood clot in his calf, but cleared him to play anyway. Later, […]

Despite leading his team to an upset victory over the divisional rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 6, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been unable to recapture the fantasy magic that made him a league-winner after taking over the starting job midway through the 2025 season. Through six games, Brissett has reached 17 fantasy […]

Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson (knee) returned to practice ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup with the Ravens, and while he was ultimately ruled out for what became an important divisional win, he is nearing a return from the knee injury that knocked him out of the season opener and landed him on […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) is expected to make his 2026 season debut in the team's Week 7 matchup with the Giants, and while he'll join a suddenly crowded wide receiver room, the 2023 third-round pick is worthy of waiver consideration in a relatively scarce week. Dell last saw an NFL field in […]

No one can stop Malik Nabers in Week 7, and apparently not even J.J. McCarthy can slow him down the way he did Justin Jefferson. Nabers has been an absolute fantasy wrecking ball since returning from injury, and with the Giants continuing to funnel targets his way, he belongs in every starting lineup regardless of […]
