Sam Ehlinger Not An Ideal Streaming Option

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger will be making his first career start against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. The 24-year-old has been named the starting quarterback for the rest of the season. It's surprising that the Colts have that much faith in the former sixth round pick. Possibly, Ehlinger is better than expected, but fantasy […]

Dawson Knox Has Tough Matchup In Week 8

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has failed to reach 45 receiving yards in a single game this season. The 25-year-old has taken a back seat to Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis. The good news is that Knox does usually make the play when called upon. He's hauled in 15 of his 20 targets, but […]

Gabe Davis Has WR3 Value For Week 8

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has been playing better as of late. The 23-year-old has six receptions for 245 yards and three touchdowns over his last two games. That being said, Davis is a more of a boom-or-bust type of fantasy option. Lately, Davis has been making the big plays, but there's also the […]

Kyle Dugger Downgraded To Out Against Jets

The New England Patriots downgraded defensive back Kyle Dugger (ankle) to out for the Week 8 game against the New York Jets. Dugger was injured in Monday night's loss to the Chicago Bears, and he'll miss at least one game on a short week. It remains to be seen if the 26-year-old safety will be […]

Malik Davis Joins Cowboys' Active Roster

With Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) listed as doubtful for Week 8 against the Chicago Bears, the team elevated rookie running back Malik Davis to their active roster from the practice squad on Saturday. Tony Pollard will receive the lion's share of the backfield touches on Sunday against Chicago, but the Cowboys needed […]

Van Jefferson Officially Activated Saturday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) was activated from injured reserve on Saturday. He is not expected to have any limitations as he makes his season debut in Week 8. Still, it remains to be seen what type of role Jefferson will have. Cooper Kupp is the Rams' clear No. 1 receiver, but […]

Ronald Jones Tweets About Wanting Release

Kansas City Chiefs running back Ronald Jones took to Twitter and voiced displeasure about his role on Saturday. In a tweet, he wrote, "Sure would like a RELEASE right about now." Ultimately, the Chiefs have the final say on whether to release him, but it would not be surprising to see them grant his request. […]

Ronnie Rivers Elevated From Practice Squad

Los Angeles Rams running back Ronnie Rivers was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. He is expected to be active for Week 8 against the San Francisco 49ers. Rivers made his pro debut in Week 6, catching one pass for 14 yards. He is a candidate to see more volume with Cam Akers (personal) […]

Travis Homer Activated From Injured Reserve

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ribs) has been activated from injured reserve and is expected to be active for Week 8 against the New York Giants. Homer underwhelmed while filling a depth role earlier in the season, but he was playing behind Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Walker III at the time. Not only is […]

T.J. Watt Won't Play In Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers pass rusher T.J. Watt (pectoral, knee) was not activated from injured reserve and therefore will not play against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8, according to Brooke Pryor of ESPN. Watt has been out since Week 1 when he totaled one sack, one interception, and six tackles. The Steelers still have more than […]

Bengals Defense Has Upside In Week 8

The Bengals defense hasn't been the most consistent group for fantasy managers in 2022-23. However, things look promising for the Monday night AFC North clash against the Browns. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett hasn't played the best this season, throwing for 1,584 yards, six touchdowns, and five picks while completing 62.7% of his throws. Although Cincy may […]

Evan McPherson May See More Action In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson wasn't needed during Sunday's win over Atlanta, as the 23-year-old didn't log a single field goal attempt. However, with Ja'Marr Chase (hip) unavailable for up to six weeks, McPherson could see more action if Joe Burrow and the Bengals offense struggle to adjust moving ahead. He is usually a must-start […]

Stefon Diggs Has Tough Challenge In Week 8

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been nearly unstoppable all season long. Through six games, Diggs has 49 receptions, 656 yards, and six touchdowns this season. He's averaging over 10 targets per week in this pass-heavy offense. Despite his success, Diggs could have some trouble against the Green Bay Packers in Week 8. A […]

Devin Singletary An RB2 For Week 8

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary has posted at least 90 total yards in three of his last four games. The 25-year-old seems to have finally found his groove and is actually consistently producing in this offense. In Week 8, Singletary will face a Green Bay Packers defense that is horrendous against the run. In […]

Tee Higgins Has Big Shoes To Fill On Monday Night

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has played well this season, catching 31 passes for 455 yards and two touchdowns. With that said, the 23-year-old could be in store for a significant increase in production with Ja'Marr Chase out of the equation for up to six weeks. He's certainly up to the task. Yet, Chase's […]

Josh Allen A Strong QB1 For Week 8

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has thrown for over 300 yards in four of his first six games of the season. The 26-year-old is putting together another excellent season with little signs of slowing down. In Week 8, Allen will get a Green Bay Packers defense that is middle of the road this season in […]

Tyler Boyd Hoping To Thrive In Enhanced Role

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd will need to step things up in the wake of the injury to Ja'Marr Chase (hip), who will miss up to six weeks. The 28-year-old is up to the task, as he has shined when needed during his career. Boyd is coming off his best showing of the season, […]

Willie Snead IV Elevated To Active Roster

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Willie Snead IV has been elevated to the active roster ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. This doesn't come as a surprise with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) out and Jauan Jennings (hamstring) listed as questionable for this contest. The 30-year-old has seen success in the past, […]

Michael Badgley Signs With Lions

The Detroit Lions have signed kicker Michael Badgley to their active roster. The 27-year-old has spent each of the last two weeks on the practice squad. Now, it appears the team will officially sign Badgley. He was perfect on his kicks last week and appears to be a reliable option. However, the Lions offense hasn't […]

Nico Collins Ruled Out For Week 8

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (groin) has been ruled out for the Week 8 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Collins was held out of practice all week due to a groin issue. Despite that, he was listed as questionable for this game, but has ultimately been ruled out. His absence makes Brandin Cooks a […]

Ryan Tannehill Ruled Out, Malik Willis To Start

The Tennessee Titans have downgraded quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, illness) to out for Week 8 against the Houston Texans, and he won't travel with the team. Rookie third-rounder Malik Willis will now make his first career NFL start on Sunday after taking all the starter's repetitions in practice this week. Tannehill sprained his ankle in […]

David Njoku Ruled Out For Monday Night Game

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (ankle) has officially been ruled out in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night. As expected, Njoku wasn't able to practice all week after suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The good news for Njoku's fantasy managers is that the […]

Alex Leatherwood Activated From NFI List

The Chicago Bears activated former Las Vegas Raiders first-round offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood from the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list on Friday, and he should make his season debut in Week 8 against the Dallas Cowboys. The 23-year-old won't start in his first game for the Bears, but they're hoping he can provide valuable depth for their […]

Texans Defense Has Limited Appeal In Week 8

The Houston Texans defense is a little more appealing than usual on Sunday against a Titans team that ranks just 21st in the NFL in points per game, but there's still plenty of reason to be concerned. For example, the Texans allow the most rushing yards per game in the NFL and face a team […]

Chris Boswell Ruled Out For Week 8

The Pittsburgh Steelers ruled out kicker Chris Boswell (groin) for the Week 8 game against the Philadelphia Eagles due to his groin injury. Boswell was listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report, but he's now been downgraded and won't kick on Sunday. The 31-year-old apparently injured his groin at practice later in the week, […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Has Some Upside In Week 8

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn started the year hot, not missing a single kick in his first three games. He's missed two of them in the last three games, so there's definitely a little concern there about his accuracy. But the Texans offense has a tendency to stall out in opponent territory, which is why […]

Jordan Akins Has Some Deep-League Appeal In Week 8

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins could be a sneaky play in deep leagues or DFS this week against the Titans, who allow the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL. He's seen at least two targets in four consecutive games, and last week he caught three passes for a team-high 68 yards. It's […]

Packers Could Trade For A Tight End

The Green Bay Packers solution at wide receiver could end up being to trade for another tight end, according to a source. Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki could be available, but he might not be a good fit in head coach Matt LaFleur's offense. Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam is another name to […]

Khalil Herbert Remains Flex Option In Week 8

Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert is expected to remain involved in Week 8 versus Dallas. Granted, he'll continue to split carries with David Montgomery, with both men combining for 27 attempts versus the Pats on Monday night. Yet, head coach Matt Eberflus indicated he'd continue utilizing both men's services, so the run game may […]

Nico Collins Not Expected To Play Sunday

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (groin) isn't expected to play Sunday when the Texans take on the Titans, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. The Titans allow the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL, so Collins likely would have been considered a fantasy sleeper if he played. Expect more targets to Brandin Cooks, […]
