Kyren Williams Won't Return In Week 9

The Los Angeles Rams activated running back Ronnie Rivers from the practice squad to their active roster on Saturday, but rookie running back Kyren Williams (ankle) will not be activated from Injured Reserve. It remains to be seen what the Rams will do with Cam Akers, who returned to practice this week and wasn't listed […]

Cameron Dicker To Kick For Chargers In Week 9

The Los Angeles Chargers activated kicker Cameron Dicker from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday, and he will kick for the team in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons with Dustin Hopkins (hamstring) still sidelined. Dicker was just signed to the practice squad on Thursday. The 22-year-old rookie served as the Philadelphia […]

Donald Parham Jr. Placed On Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Chargers placed tight end Donald Parham Jr. (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Saturday and promoted wide receiver Keelan Doss from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move. Parham missed the team's Week 7 game due to a concussion and has played in just two games in 2022 due […]

Kwity Paye To Return, Shaquille Leonard To Be On Snap Count

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that defensive end Kwity Paye (ankle) will return in Week 9 against the New England Patriots from a high-ankle sprain that he suffered in Week 5. Star linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back) will also remain on a pitch count on Sunday as he continues to work his way back […]

Zack Moss Still Getting Acclimated

Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss, who was acquired from the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday in the Nyheim Hines trade, took part in his second straight practice with the Colts on Friday, but head coach Frank Reich said the third-year running back is still getting acclimated to the offense. "We're trying to ramp him up […]

No Injury Designation For Matt Prater

Arizona Cardinals kicker Matt Prater (hip) was limited in practice all week and was removed from the team's final injury report on Friday. Prater returned from his hip injury in Week 8 but was limited to just field goals and extra points. The Cardinals cut Rodrigo Blankenship earlier this week, so it looks as though […]

49ers Could Pursue Odell Beckham Jr.

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch didn't shoot down the idea of pursuing free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee), who continues to rehab from a torn ACL suffered in the Super Bowl in February. Head coach Kyle Shanahan has long been an admirer of Beckham, who is hoping to sign with a team […]

James Robinson Questionable Against Buffalo

The New York Jets added running back James Robinson (knee) to their injury report on Saturday, and he's officially questionable to play in Week 9 against the Buffalo Bills. Robinson made his debut with the Jets in the Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots and was used sparingly behind Michael Carter, handling just […]

Nyheim Hines Could Be A Factor In Punt-Return Game

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane gave firm indication that newly acquired running back Nyheim Hines could be a factor in the punt-return game in his debut with the team in Week 9 against the New York Jets. Hines adds wide-ranging versatility and breakaway speed to the Bills backfield, but he might contribute the most, […]

Phillip Lindsay, Jordan Wilkins Elevated To Active Roster

With Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) out for Week 9 against the New England Patriots on Sunday, the team elevated running backs Phillip Lindsay and Jordan Wilkins from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday. The Colts traded Nyheim Hines to the Bills on Tuesday, so they'll need additional depth with […]

Panthers Defense Not A Strong Option In Week 9

The Carolina Panthers' defense/special teams generated two turnovers in Week 8 but allowed 31 points to the Atlanta Falcons. In Week 9, the Panthers will travel to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals, who struggled without Ja'Marr Chase last week. With Chase out again on Sunday, the Carolina DST may post a decent fantasy performance, […]

Eddy Pineiro Will Hope To Bounce Back In Week 9

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro had a rough showing in Week 8, missing potential game-winners in both regulation and overtime. He will look to get back on track in a Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Pineiro has been mostly consistent this season but his fantasy output has not been prolific. With the Bengals' […]

Tommy Tremble Can't Be Started In Week 9

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble saw four targets last week and will hope to be a go-to option for quarterback PJ Walker in a Week 9 bout with the Cincinnati Bengals. Although Tremble has been out-snapping Ian Thomas consistently, neither tight end has produced much for fantasy this season. That is unlikely to change […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. Worth Monitoring In Week 9

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. is coming off of the best game of his young career and will look to stay involved in a Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Marshall was the second-most targeted player on the Panthers last week and finished with 87 yards on four receptions against the Atlanta […]

Dolphins Defense A Great Option In Week 9

The Miami Dolphins' defense has plenty of fantasy appeal heading into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. While Justin Fields' improved mobility has injected some life into Chicago's offense, the system still has its flaws. For starters, the second-year quarterback ranks 34th in EYds, making it evident that the Bears don't do a good job […]

DJ Moore Should Be Started Despite Tough Matchup

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore has had a fantasy resurgence with PJ Walker under center and will look to keep rolling in Week 9 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Although the Bengals have limited opposing wide receivers this season, Moore is the focal point of Carolina's passing attack with Christian McCaffrey and Robbie Anderson no […]

Jason Sanders Worth Streaming In Week 9

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is worth streaming in Week 9. As the Dolphins' offense continues to hum along, its kicker should benefit by cleaning up stalled drives with field goals or adding extra points to touchdowns. With that said, there is still room for Sanders to struggle this week. He's going up against a […]

D'Onta Foreman A Solid RB2 In Week 9

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman was a top-five fantasy running back in Week 8 and will look to stay hot against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9. Foreman handled 26 carries last week and could see a similar workload on Sunday with Chuba Hubbard (ankle) inactive once again. The Bengals have been solid against […]

Mike Gesicki Likely Touchdown Dependent In Week 9

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki's Week 9 fantasy value could hinge on his ability to find the end zone. Although Gesicki is averaging 14.5 fantasy points over the last three weeks, he is largely touchdown-dependent. In fact, Gesicki has yet to amass more than 5.7 fantasy points during a game in which he does […]

Tyreek Hill Remains A Top WR1 Play In Week 9

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has looked like one of the best playmakers in the NFL this season, and he shows no signs of slowing down. The superstar is the overall WR1 in PPR, catching 69 passes for 961 yards and two touchdowns. On pace to break the single-season receiving record, Hill will line […]

PJ Walker Has Difficult Matchup In Week 9

Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker finished as the fantasy QB15 against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8 but will face a much more difficult opponent in the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Carolina's offense has clearly improved with Walker at the helm, but the 27-year-old signal-caller could struggle against a Bengals defense that has allowed the […]

Chargers Defense Can't Be Trusted In Week 9

The Los Angeles Chargers' defense is allowing 27 points per game this season and will go on the road to face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9. Atlanta is surprisingly averaging 25 points per game and is fresh off of a shootout win against the Carolina Panthers in which the Falcons' offense put up 30 […]

Jaylen Waddle Poised For Massive Week

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could deliver enormous production against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. In addition to his constant must-start role in fantasy football, Waddle is a top candidate to occupy your DFS lineups and bet slips in Week 9. The second-year receiver is coming off a game in which he produced 106 […]

Gerald Everett Is A Must-Start In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett will return from a Week 8 bye for an away matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Everett has enjoyed a featured role in the Chargers' offense with Keenan Allen (hamstring) injured for most of the season, and Los Angeles will be missing both Allen and Mike Williams (ankle) on […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Should Be Avoided In Dolphins Debut

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. is expected to make his debut with the team against the Chicago Bears in Week 9. Traded from the San Francisco 49ers last Tuesday, Wilson has an immediate advantage since he played in a Mike McDaniel-led offense as recently as last year, and he has also had a […]

Raheem Mostert Poised For Another Solid Outing

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert remains a fringe top-24 running back in fantasy football heading into Week 9 against the Chicago Bears. On one hand, there is legitimate concern that Tua Tagovailoa will pass the ball so much that there's no opportunity for Mostert and Jeff Wilson Jr. to run. However, over the last […]

Joshua Palmer A Strong Option In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer garnered 12 targets in Week 6 and could see similar volume in a Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Chargers will be without top wideouts Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle), so Palmer will be operating as the team's clear WR1. Austin Ekeler will likely […]

Tua Tagovailoa Remains A Top Option In Week 9

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been on a roll lately, and he shows no signs of slowing down ahead of a favorable matchup against the Chicago Bears. Just last week, Tagovailoa torched the Detroit Lions for 382 yards and three touchdowns. Now, he faces off against a Bears defense that allowed Dak Prescott to […]

Austin Ekeler Will Look To Stay Hot In Week 9

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler finished as the fantasy RB3 or better in four consecutive weeks before the team's Week 8 bye. This week, Ekeler will take the field against the Atlanta Falcons, who have allowed over 23 PPR fantasy points per game to the running back position. With Keenan Allen (hamstring) and […]

Samaje Perine Off The Injury Report

Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine (finger) was removed from the injury report and doesn't carry a designation ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Panthers. Considering Perine has practiced in full all week, his status for Week 9 was never really in question. While the 27-year-old will continue to support Joe Mixon, he has room […]
