Derek Carr On The Week 8 Streaming Radar

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will face the Houston Texans in Week 8, giving him some streaming appeal for managers looking to replace bye-week QBs Lamar Jackson and Dak Prescott. Carr is coming off his best fantasy game of 2019, despite two turnovers, where he threw for 293 yards and two scores against the Packers. […]

Josh Jacobs Questionable For Week 8

Oakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) is questionable to play in Week 8 against the Texans, according to head coach Jon Gruden. The good news for the Raiders is that receiver Tyrell Williams (foot) returned to practice on Wednesday and could play this Sunday. Jacobs is averaging 5.1 yards per carry this year and […]

Kyler Murray Taking Care Of The Football

Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback Kyler Murray has the 12th lowest interception percentage in the NFL and yes yet to lose a fumble in his rookie season. Murray has gone three straight games without a turnover, and the Cardinals offense only has four giveaways on the year. He has 121 rushing/passing attempts in the last three […]

Christian Kirk Limited On Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday after missing the last three games with a high ankle sprain. Head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that Kirk has made steady progress. Kirk will slide back into No. 2 duties behind Larry Fitzgerald if he returns, but that's entirely up in the […]

Ryan Succop Designated To Return

The Tennessee Titans designated kicker Ryan Succop (knee), who was put on Injured Reserve before the season opener, to return from IR later this year. He'll be allowed to resume practicing with the team, but he won't be eligible to play until Week 9 against the Panthers. Cody Parkey has been with the team the […]

Sammy Watkins On Track To Return

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) got in a full practice on Wednesday. Watkins hasn't played since Sept. 29 against the Lions, but it's looking like he has a good chance to return this weekend in a Sunday night showdown with the Packers. However, the 26-year-old's fantasy ceiling will be lower than usual […]

Josh Gordon Thinks He's Close To Returning

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon (knee), who was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, thinks that he's close to returning to play, according to a source. The Patriots will likely release him at this point, but he could be available to other teams as a free agent soon. It's a peculiar decision, but […]

Davante Adams Could Be Game-Time Decision

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Davante Adams' (toe) Week 8 status against the Chiefs could go right up until game time on Sunday night. Adams was stretching with the team on Wednesday for the first time since his injury in Week 4, but it won't guarantee that he's active […]

Malcolm Brown Missing Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) is not practicing on Wednesday. Brown sat out in Week 7 and doesn't appear to be any closer to returning for this week's contest against the Bengals. Todd Gurley returned from his one-game absence last weekend but was spelled often by rookie Darrell Henderson in a blowout […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook, Tre'Quan Smith Sidelined

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle), tight end Jared Cook (ankle) and wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) all missed practice on Wednesday. All three players sat out in Week 7 against the Bears and are off to a bad start this week. The Saints have a bye in Week 9, so they could […]

Philip Rivers Will Have Russell Okung In Week 8

Los Angeles Chargers left tackle Russell Okung (heart) will play in Week 8 against the Bears, according to head coach Anthony Lynn. Okung has been out all year while recovering from a pulmonary embolism caused by blood clots. He returned to practice last week. Okung will be available this Sunday, but Lynn cautioned that he […]

O.J. Howard On Week 8 Injury Report

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (hamstring) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. It's a little odd with the Buccaneers coming off their bye. Howard has been one of the biggest fantasy busts at his position this year in the first year with Bruce Arians as head coach. They've vowed to […]

Chris Herndon IV Limited Wednesday

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon IV (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Herndon has yet to make his season debut due to a suspension and most recently his hamstring injury. But it looks like he's getting closer to seeing the field, and Week 8 against the Jaguars could be it. Quarterback Sam […]

Sam Darnold To Be Limited Wednesday

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Sam Darnold (toe) will be limited in practice on Wednesday because of a toe injury he suffered in Monday's blowout loss to the Patriots. Darnold was awful against New England (four interceptions) and admitted to "seeing ghosts" while being mic'ed up for the game. He […]

DeSean Jackson Not Practicing Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen) will not practice on Wednesday. Jackson hasn't played since Week 2 and although he's been making progress in recent weeks, he doesn't appear any closer to getting back on the field. He'll need to practice either Thursday or Friday to have a shot at playing this Sunday against […]

Davante Adams Making Progress

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) stretched with the team on Wednesday for the first time since suffering a turf toe injury in Week 4 against the Eagles. It's great news, but it doesn't mean that Adams will return in Week 8 against the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. The fact that the […]

Saquon Barkley, Sterling Shepard Limited In Practice

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) and wide receiver Sterling Shepard (concussion) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Barkley was dinged up in his return to action in Week 7, but he should be fine moving forward and is easily a top-three fantasy running back each and every week he's playing. Shepard […]

Delanie Walker, Corey Davis Miss Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) and wide receiver Corey Davis (illness) did not practice on Wednesday. Walker left the game early in Week 7 and didn't return, making him questionable for this Sunday against the Buccaneers. Whether it be due to injury, age or the team's run-first offense, Walker has fallen into TE2 […]

Matt Ryan Expected To Play This Week?

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn expects quarterback Matt Ryan (ankle) to play in Week 8 against the Seahawks. Ryan got in some practice on Wednesday, putting him on track to play this weekend after limping off in the fourth quarter of the team's Week 7 blowout loss to the Rams. Atlanta's offense went off […]

Emmanuel Sanders Expected To Play Sunday

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said he expects wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders to make his team debut in Week 8 against the Panthers. The 49ers acquired Sanders from the Broncos on Monday, and he'll immediately become their No. 1 wideout ahead of Marquise Goodwin and Dante Pettis. The change of scenery will be […]

Josh Gordon Placed On Injured Reserve

The New England Patriots placed wide receiver Josh Gordon (knee) on the Injured Reserve on Wednesday. Gordon was injured on Thursday night two weeks ago and sat out of Monday's blowout win over the Jets. There's a chance he'll return to the team later this year, but Gordon effectively won't be of much use to […]

Tyrell Williams Returns To Practice

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Tyrell Williams (foot) got in a limited practice on Wednesday after missing the team's last two games. Williams has scored a touchdown in all four games he's played in this year, but he'll be a pretty shaky WR3 if he plays this Sunday against the Texans. The Houston secondary is beat […]

Josh Jacobs Not Practicing Wednesday

Oakland Raiders rookie running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) is not practicing on Wednesday after injuring his shoulder in Week 7. Jacobs played through the injury in the loss to the Packers and was productive, so he should be able to suit up in Week 8 against the Texans. But fantasy owners will want to keep […]

A.J. Green Not Expected To Play In Week 8

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) is not expected to play in Week 8 against the Rams. Green said on Sunday that his recovery hasn't been longer than he or the team expected, even though he didn't start the season on Injured Reserve. Green is a trade candidate and is unlikely to make his […]

Drew Brees Could Be Game-Time Decision

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said that he might wait until Sunday morning to decide whether quarterback Drew Brees (thumb) will play against the Cardinals in Week 8. Brees has made a quick recovery and could return this weekend to a fantastic matchup against the Cardinals, although they did just get shutdown cornerback […]

Patrick Mahomes Not Being Ruled Out For Week 8

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) will practice on Wednesday, but backup Matt Moore will take the "majority" of the team repetitions. Reid isn't ruling out Mahomes for Week 8 against the Packers just yet. Mahomes is expected to miss three to five weeks after dislocating his kneecap […]

Adrian Peterson, Steven Sims Questionable Against Vikings

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle) and wide receiver Steven Sims Jr. (toe) were both limited in practice on Wednesday and are questionable for Thursday night against the Vikings. Peterson is dealing with a high ankle sprain, so it seems unlikely he'll be able to play on Thursday despite the fact that he insists […]

Chris Thompson, Vernon Davis Ruled Out For Thursday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) and tight end Vernon Davis (concussion) have both been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Vikings. Davis was limited in practice all week, but Thompson didn't practice at all and isn't a lock to return in Week 9. Davis appears to be making progress, but fantasy […]

Saquon Barkley Take Backseat To Passing Game On Sunday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley's matchup on Sunday is tougher than it looks at first glance. On the season, the Lions allow the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs; however, a lot of that has to do with an earlier injury to defensive tackle Damon Harrison. Over the last three games, the Lions […]

Adam Thielen Ruled Out For Week 8

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) has been ruled out of his team's Thursday night game against Washington. Thielen injured his hamstring while making a diving touchdown catch during Week 7. There was some optimism that Thielen would be able to suit up on Thursday but the team instead will pay it safe with […]
