Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill is fully recovered from an Achilles tear that caused him to miss the 2021 season. With Gus Edwards (knee) on the Physically Unable to Perform List and J.K.

Jaylen Warren Steelers No. 2 Back On Depth Chart

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Jaylen Warren was listed ahead of Benny Snell Jr. as the No. 2 back on the team's newest depth chart.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (elbow) was not listed on his team's initial injury report for Thursday night's game against the Buffalo Bills.

Van Jefferson Misses Practice Monday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) missed practice on Monday as his team gets set to take on the Buffalo Bills in Week 1's Thursday Night Football game.

Jordan Poyer Practices In Full Monday

Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer (elbow) was a full participant in practice on Monday and was no longer in a red non-contact jersey.

Patriots Sign Laquon Treadwell

The New England Patriots signed free-agent wide receiver Laquon Treadwell to their practice squad on Monday, according to a source. Treadwell finished with 434 receiving yards and a touchdown on 51 receptions over 12 games (seven starts) for the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2021.

Byron Pringle Returns To Practice Monday

Chicago Bears wide receiver Byron Pringle (quadriceps) took part in practice on Monday for the first time in a long time. It was the first time that Pringle had practiced with the team since he suffered his quad injury on Aug. 6. The fact that he's practicing already this week is a good sign that […]

Logan Thomas Up In The Air For Season Opener

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (knee) said his knee feels good, but no decision has been made yet about whether he'll play in the Week 1 regular season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. If Thomas doesn't play this weekend, he's likely to make his season debut in Week 2 against the Detroit […]

Packers Hopeful Christian Watson Will Play In Week 1

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that he's hopeful that rookie wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) will be able to play in the Week 1 regular season opener on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.

Isaiah McKenzie Practices In Full Monday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (groin) was listed as a full practice participant on Monday on the first injury report of the 2022 season. Barring a setback, McKenzie will be ready to roll for the Week 1 regular season opener on Thursday night against the Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. With a strong […]

Tee Higgins Back At Practice

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (shoulder) returned to practice on Monday after being away last week. Higgins should be considered day-to-day right now, but it would be a surprise if he's not active for the Week 1 regular season opener against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Fantasy managers will want to keep an […]

Zach Ertz's Week 1 Status Up In The Air

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (calf) is being called "day-to-day" by head coach Kliff Kingsbury, so this will be a situation worth monitoring before Week 1 start-or-sit decisions. Arizona faces off with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in what should be a high-scoring affair with plenty of fantasy football intrigue in the […]

James Robinson Expected To Play In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (Achilles) carried a lot of uncertainty during the NFL offseason after a major injury late in 2021. However, Doug Pederson said Robinson "should play" against the Commanders in Week 1. It's tough to know exactly how the workload will be split between Robinson and Travis Etienne, but Etienne is […]

Deebo Samuel Returns To Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (knee) missed practice last Thursday with a bone bruise behind his knee but did participate in conditioning.

Drake London Returns To Practice

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) suffered an injury in the first quarter of his first live NFL action in Week 1 of the preseason but returned to practice Monday.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) was inactive for all of the team's preseason games and has missed several practices as the season opener approaches.

Allen Lazard's Status Uncertain For Week 1

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard was absent from practice last week for unknown reasons, and his Week 1 status is up in the air.

Leonard Fournette's Usage To Be Down This Year?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette only hit 80 percent of the team's offensive snaps last year once in the first 10 games.
