Trey Sermon Not Suiting Up Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Trey Sermon is a healthy scratch for Sunday's season opener against the Detroit Lions. This is no surprise considering the Eagles have plenty of trust in their three-headed backfield of Miles Sanders, Kenneth Gainwell, and Boston Scott. Sermon garnered plenty of hype with the 49ers as a rookie last season, but […]

KJ Hamler Questionable For Week 1

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler (knee, hip) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for the Week 1 regular season opener on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks. Hamler tore his ACL in Week 3 of last year, but he played in the team's preseason finale and appears to be […]

Trey Lance Has No Leash In Week 1

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance is not being held back as he begins his journey as the team's starter. As Ian Rapoport of NFL.com notes, Lance has "no leash" heading into Week 1 versus the Chicago Bears. He has significant upside as a potential QB1 finisher in 2022, but his value could be capped […]

Jeremy Ruckert, Denzel Mims Inactive Against Ravens

New York Jets rookie tight end Jeremy Ruckert and wide receiver Denzel Mims are healthy scratches for Week 1 of the regular season against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Ruckert, a third-round pick this year out of Ohio State, has a bright future, but he's currently buried on the tight end depth chart in New […]

Logan Thomas Suiting Up In Week 1

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (knee) is officially active for Week 1 again the Jacksonville Jaguars. This was expected, but it's still refreshing to receive confirmation from the team. With a relatively tough matchup on tap, Thomas falls into the mid-to-low TE2 range. His fantasy success is likely dependent on a touchdown, something that […]

Pierre Strong Jr. A Healthy Scratch In Week 1

New England Patriots rookie running back Pierre Strong Jr. is a healthy scratch for the Week 1 season opener against the Miami Dolphins. Strong will start his NFL career on the sidelines with pass-catching specialist Ty Montgomery (knee) surprisingly active on Sunday. The 23-year-old fourth-rounder looked a bit lost in training camp and the preseason, […]

Velus Jones Jr. Officially Inactive For Week 1

Chicago Bears wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring) is officially inactive for Week 1 versus the San Francisco 49ers. The rookie did not practice at all this week and, as a result, was listed as doubtful heading into the weekend. His absence should lead to a bump in target for Equanimeous St. Brown and Byron […]

Tyler Allgeier Inactive For Week 1

Atlanta Falcons rookie running back Tyler Allgeier is inactive for Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints. The BYU product hasn't been dealing with an injury, so it appears he's a healthy scratch. Allgeier drew plenty of hype this past offseason since he was a candidate to emerge as the starter in a relatively weak […]

Michael Thomas Officially Active For Week 1

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (hamstring) is officially active for Week 1 despite being listed as questionable. He has some appeal with a divisional matchup against the Atlanta Falcons on tap, but fantasy managers should approach the situation with caution considering Thomas hasn't played in a regular season game since Week 14 back […]

D'Ernest Johnson A Healthy Scratch In Week 1

Cleveland Browns running back D'Ernest Johnson is a healthy scratch in Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. Offensive tackle Jack Conklin (knee) is also inactive in the regular season opener. Johnson will be in street clothes on the sidelines on Sunday with both Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt fully healthy for the kickoff […]

Drake London Officially Active For Week 1

Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Drake London (knee) is officially active for Week 1. Despite being listed as questionable, he's good to go for his NFL debut against the New Orleans Saints. In a thin wide receiver room, London has a chance to make an immediate splash. He and Kyle Pitts figure to headline the […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. Inactive In Week 1

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is a healthy scratch for Week 1 versus the Cleveland Browns. Acquired from the Jacksonville Jaguars in August, Shenault presumably didn't have enough time to get up to speed between the trade and now. Even if Shenault is active next week, he doesn't have much fantasy appeal. DJ […]

James Robinson Officially Active In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (Achilles) is officially active for the Week 1 season opener on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Most fantasy managers were down on Robinson heading into draft season after he suffered a torn Achilles last year. On top of it, second-year back Travis Etienne Jr. is a major road block […]

Danny Gray Inactive For Season Opener

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Danny Gray is a healthy inactive for Week 1 versus the Chicago Bears. He joins tight end George Kittle and running back Tyrion Davis-Price on the list of skill position players who won't suit up for the contest. Gray had an impressive summer, headlined by a 99-yard performance in […]

Ty Montgomery Active Against Dolphins

New England Patriots running back Ty Montgomery (knee), who was carted off the field after getting injured in the preseason finale, is officially active in the Week 1 regular season opener against the Miami Dolphins. It's a bit of a surprise to see him active, but it's a big boost to the team's passing game, […]

Tyrion Davis-Price Inactive Against Bears

San Francisco 49ers running back Tyrion Davis-Price is listed as inactive for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears. This is a bit surprising considering Trey Sermon is off the roster now. Apparently, the 49ers feel comfortable with Elijah Mitchell and Jeff Wilson Jr. as the primary running backs. Davis-Price does have some stash […]

Jakobi Meyers Active For Week 1

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee) is officially active for the Week 1 season opener against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Meyers was limited in practice all week and was fully expected to suit up for this one. The 25-year-old was quarterback Mac Jones' favorite target in 2021, but the Patriots added former […]

George Kittle Officially Out For Week 1

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) has been officially ruled out for the Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears. He suffered a groin injury in practice and it sounds like it's going to cost him time. Hopefully, Kittle will be able to play next week, but that will be determined later in […]

J.K. Dobbins Officially Out Sunday

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is officially out for the Week 1 season opener on Sunday against the New York Jets. Tight end Nick Boyle is also sitting in the regular season opener. Dobbins missed all of last year with a torn ACL, but he was trending in the right direction and was […]

Buccaneers Not Counting On Rob Gronkowski Returning

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are expected to move forward without Rob Gronkowski in their future plans. The five-time Pro Bowl tight end returned to the Bucs in 2020 after sitting out the 2019 campaign. There were rumors that Gronkowski might return again this season, but it doesn't look like the Bucs plan on bringing him […]

J.K. Dobbins Unlikely To Play In Week 1

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Week 1 against the New York Jets. It sounds like Dobbins will attempt to get on the field for warmups, but is most likely sitting out this contest. Kenyan Drake and Mike Davis should split up a majority of the carries in […]

David Bakhtiari Not Expected To Play In Week 1

Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) is not expected to suit up for the Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran tackle tore his ACL in December of last year, which led to him only playing in one game. It doesn't sound like he's quite ready to take the field yet. […]

Chase Young Could Return Around Week 5

Washington Commanders defensive end Chase Young is on a similar timetable to running back Brian Robinson, according to Adam Schefter. It was reported that Robinson is likely to be ready to return by Week 5. It sounds like Young is on a slightly slower timetable, but still should be available to play this season. Young […]

Ryan Succop Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop had another terrific campaign in 2021. He converted 25-of-30 field goal attempts while connecting on 56-of-59 tries in 17 games last season. He beat out Jose Borregales to become Tampa Bay's starting kicker. The 35-year-old will be busy again on Sunday when Tampa Bay faces the Dallas Cowboys in […]

Cameron Brate Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate is expected to see an uptick in target share in 2022, with Rob Gronkowski retiring this offseason. Tampa Bay also brought in veteran tight end Kyle Rudolph and drafted Cade Otton in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Tampa Bay's head coach Todd Bowles recently said […]

Julio Jones Week 1 Outlook For Fantasy Football

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones will look to rebound after a disappointing 2021 campaign with his new team in 2022. He signed a one-year contract with the Buccaneers this offseason. The 33-year-old struggled mightily last season with the Titans, catching 31 passes for 434 yards and touchdown over 10 games. Jones will look […]

Tom Brady Expected To Retire After This Season

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is expected to play his final season of football in 2022, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Brady retired and then unretired this past offseason, and spending one more year in the NFL would allow him to achieve his goal of playing until he is 45 years old. "He has […]

Lamar Jackson Turns Down $290 Million Offer

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson recently declined a massive six-year, $290 million contract that included $133 million fully guaranteed at signing, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen. Jackson would have received $48.3 million per year, but he did not want to agree to a deal that was not fully guaranteed. While the extension did include more […]

J.C. Jackson Could Miss Two Games

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback J.C. Jackson, listed as questionable following ankle surgery, is not expected to play against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 1, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Schefter also notes that the Chargers have a short week on deck, so Jackson could miss Thursday Night Football versus the Kansas City Chiefs, […]

J.J. Watt Not Expected To Play In Week 1

Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt (calf) is not expected to play in Week 1 versus the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. He had been listed as questionable, but the Cardinals don't want to risk further injury with a long season ahead. Michael Dogbe, the No. 2 defensive end on Arizona's […]
