Melvin Gordon III Hard To Trust Against The Jets

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (neck, ribs) has practiced in full the last few days and should be good to go for a Week 7 matchup against the New York Jets. Gordon started the Week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers but finished with just three carries for eight yards and wasn't […]

Trent Williams Thinks He'll Play In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) thinks he will play in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs. Williams has returned to practice this week after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 3. The 34-year-old veteran is trending in the right direction, but he's still not a lock to return this Sunday […]

Shaquille Leonard Trending In The Right Direction

Indianapolis Colts linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back, concussion, nose) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Leonard made his season debut in Week 4 after offseason back surgery and suffered a broken nose and a concussion and has missed the last two games. His recovery from a broken nose is his […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. To See More Opportunities

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. is set to see more opportunities moving forward after the team traded away Robbie Anderson earlier this week.

Gerald Everett Returns To Full Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (illness) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday with an illness. He's now on track to play in the Week 7 game against the Seattle Seahawks. And with fellow tight end Donald Parham Jr. (concussion) still in the concussion protocol without getting […]

Devin Duvernay To Be More Involved

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Greg Roman said among his notes after Week 6 was to get wide receiver Devin Duvernay more involved. "It had an exclamation point after it," Roman said. Duvernay recorded one catch on five targets for 14 yards in last Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Giants. The 25-year-old had caught nine passes […]

Gus Edwards On Track To Return Soon

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (knee) practiced this week and is on track to return.

Watkins was designated […]

Tyler Lockett Doesn't Practice, Noah Fant Back To Full Thursday

Seattle's wide receiver Tyler Lockett (hamstring) didn't practice, while tight end Noah Fant (illness) was back to full on Thursday. Lockett has now missed back-to-back practices and will have one more chance ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old hasn't missed a game this season, and fantasy managers should continue to […]

Andy Dalton Could Remain Saints Starter Moving Forward

New Orleans Saints quarterback Andy Dalton could remain the team's starter moving forward. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, "there is a real chance" Dalton remains the Saints starter; his "calming influence" could help keep the starting gig over Jameis Winston. Dalton was named the team's starter for Week 7 against the Arizona […]

Joshua Palmer, Donald Parham Jr. Miss Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (concussion) and tight end Donald Parham Jr. (concussion) did not practice Thursday. Palmer and Parham Jr. have now missed back-to-back practices, and their availability for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks is in doubt. They will have one more chance to practice ahead of Sunday's contest. Palmer saw […]

Keenan Allen Remains Limited Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. He hasn't played since Week 1 due to a hamstring injury. The 30-year-old has one more chance to log a full practice. The Chargers could be cautious with Allen and hold him out with the team on the bye in […]

Bradley Roby Carted Off On Thursday Night

New Orleans Saints cornerback Bradley Roby (foot) was carted to the locker room in the first quarter of Thursday night's game against the Arizona Cardinals with what looked to be a foot injury after he stepped on receiver Rondale Moore's foot awkwardly. There's a good chance that Roby won't be able to return to this […]

Mike Evans A Must-Start Against Carolina

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans secured all four targets for 42 yards in the Week 6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's had back-to-back four-catch games and hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 4. The 29-year-old draws the Carolina Panthers in Week 7, who ranks ninth in DVOA against opposing WR1s but 10th […]

Leonard Fournette A Top-10 Option In Week 7

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette has had at least six receptions over the last three games and draws a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The Panthers allow 133 rushing yards per game and rank 25th in rush DVOA. Tampa Bay has leaned heavily on Fournette as he received at least […]

Tom Brady Remains A Strong Option Against The Panthers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady draws a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 7. Carolina ranks 26th in pass DVOA and 20th against opposing quarterbacks this season. Brady will look to bounce back from his subpar performance in Week 6 when he threw for 243 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions […]

Raheem Mostert Puts In Full Practice

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was able to put in a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Mostert should be in line to serve as Miami's lead back once again this Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers ahead of Chase Edmonds, who has just three carries in […]

Jaylen Waddle Gets Another Limited Tag

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited again in practice on Thursday. There's nothing to suggest that Waddle will be in danger of missing the Week 7 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. He's coming off his third 100-yard game of the season in the Week 6 loss to the […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Looks Set To Play

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) put in his second full practice of the week on Thursday and looks primed to play in the Week 7 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. St. Brown suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 3, missed Week 4 and returned in Week 5 to catch just four of […]

D'Andre Swift Limited Again Thursday

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Swift hasn't played since Week 3, but he has a shot to return in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys, as long as he doesn't suffer a setback on Friday or Saturday. The 23-year-old […]

DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds Sit Out Of Practice Again

Detroit Lions wide receivers DJ Chark (ankle) and Josh Reynolds (knee) both missed practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Chark hasn't played since Week 3 and was seen wearing a walking boot on Thursday, so he almost certainly won't play in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys. Reynolds played through a […]

CeeDee Lamb A Full Practice Participant

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (hip) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Lamb played through the Week 6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with the hip injury and caught five of his 10 targets for 68 yards. The injury doesn't appear to be slowing the […]

Rashod Bateman Puts In Another Limited Practice

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Bateman missed the last two games with a foot sprain, but he appears to be trending in the right direction to potentially return in Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. There's a good chance he will be questionable for Sunday's game, […]

Robbie Anderson Could Play More Than Expected Thursday

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports on Thursday that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Robbie Anderson, who was acquired in a trade from the Carolina Panthers on Monday, could have a baseline of 10 to 15 offensive snaps in his first game with the team on a quick turnaround against the New Orleans Saints. Initial reports suggested […]

Rodrigo Blankenship To Kick Thursday, Matt Prater Ruled Out

Arizona Cardinals kicker Rodrigo Blankenship was elevated to the active roster on Thursday. He'll serve as the active kicker for the Thursday Night matchup with the New Orleans Saints. Matt Prater (hip) is unable to play in Week 7, but will hopefully return soon. Blankenship hasn't been too consistent during his short NFL career. He […]

Browns Defense Draws Tough Week 7 Matchup

The Cleveland Browns defense has underperformed for much of the year, ranking as the overall No. 28 D/ST in fantasy points per game. They draw a tough road matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7 in an important divisional showdown. The Ravens have an implied team total of 26.25 points in a game with […]

James Conner Inactive For Week 7

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (hip) is officially inactive for the Week 7 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury mentioned Conner would be a game-time decision, so it sounds like the team is taking the cautious approach here. The expectation is that Eno Benjamin will handle a bulk of the […]

Daniel Carlson Back As Top Kicker Option In Week 7

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson will look to continue his dominant season against the Houston Texans in Week 7. Fantasy Managers will be happy to have the number one kicker in fantasy back after the bye week. The Raiders have moved the ball well and should see similar success in this matchup. They know […]

Derek Carr A Back-End QB1 in Week 7

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will look to put together a QB1 performance against the Houston Texans in Week 7. The Texans don't appear to be a great matchup on paper, having only allowed 4 passing touchdowns this season. It is safe to attribute that to both their opponents as well as the lack […]

Lamar Jackson Gets In Full Practice Session

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. The 25-year-old was limited during Wednesday's practice, but was never expected to miss Week 7. The expectation is that he'll be fully healthy for the upcoming matchup with the Cleveland Browns. Fantasy managers should consider Jackson an elite QB1 for this upcoming […]
