Aaron Rodgers Racks Up 422 Passing Yards In Defeat

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers slung the pigskin early and often during Thursday’s loss against the Philadelphia Eagles, finishing 34-for-53 through the air. After three consecutive weeks to open the season of sub-300-yard performances, Rodgers dialed up his first game north of 400 yards since Week 15 last year -- he compiled three such […]

Packers Defense Bombarded By Eagles Offensive Attack

The Green Bay Packers’ defense took its first big blow of the season during Thursday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. While the secondary limited quarterback Carson Wentz to just 160 passing yards through the air, Philly’s backfield combined for 176 yards on the ground. After yielding just 35 points combined over the first three weeks […]

Eagles Defense Struggles in Week 4

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense struggled in Week 4, allowing 27 points to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. The Eagles recorded just one sack and one interception in this one, but let Rodgers throw for 422 yards. With an already decimated secondary that saw Avonte Maddox leave on a stretcher, the Eagles defense won't […]

Jake Elliott Kicks Four Extra Points in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott was perfect in Week 4, hitting all four of his extra-point attempts. The Eagles did not need him for a field-goal try in this one, so despite doing everything he was asked, Elliott ended up with a less-than-stellar fantasy performance. There are certainly better days ahead for Elliott, but Thursday […]

Nelson Agholor Does Absolutely Nothing in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor did absolutely nothing on the field of play on Thursday night. Agholor was not even targeted in the passing game after scoring a touchdown and gaining over 100 yards last week. Agholor made some ugly drops despite his big game in Week 3, likely leading many fantasy owners to […]

Mack Hollins Catches Only One Pass in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins made just one catch in Week 4, gaining 13 yards. Hollins played a bigger role in this one due to DeSean Jackson (abdomen) missing the game, but the Eagles offense mostly went through the running game. Hollins will take a back seat in Week 5 assuming Jackson returns to […]

Alshon Jeffery Scores a Touchdown in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Alshon Jeffery scored a touchdown in Week 4. Jeffery missed Week 3 with a calf injury and didn't look fully healthy in this one, but he made three catches, gaining 38 yards. His touchdown came on a six-yard end zone pass from Carson Wentz in the second quarter. With plenty of […]

Dallas Goedert Scores a Touchdown in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert scored a touchdown in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. Goedert made two catches, gaining 16 yards. His score came on a short three-yard strike from Carson Wentz. Goedert is a very talented receiver, but he won't have consistent enough targets unless something happens to Zach Ertz. Goedert […]

Zach Ertz Makes Seven Catches in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz made seven catches in Week 4, gaining 65 yards. Ertz led the team in catches by a wide margin, but was unable to come down with a touchdown. That's two straight somewhat pedestrian efforts from Ertz, but his usage shows that he's due for a breakout performance very soon.

Darren Sproles Gets One Carry in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles received just one carry in Week 4, gaining four yards. He didn't make a catch in the passing game. Sproles has become almost exclusively a special teams player, and can be dropped in most standard formats. He could develop some value if another Eagles running back gets hurt, but […]

Miles Sanders Runs Well But Gets Vultured in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders ran the ball well in Week 4, but watched Jordan Howard score three touchdowns. Sanders ran the ball 11 times for 72 scoreless yards. He did not make a catch in the passing game. Sanders ran well when given the chance, but Howard got seven more touches and […]

Jordan Howard Scores Three Times in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard found the end zone three times on Thursday night. He ran the ball 15 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns, adding three catches for 28 more yards and another touchdown. Howard significantly outplayed Miles Sanders and may end up getting more run going forward. He ran the ball […]

Carson Wentz Throws Three Touchdowns in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz tossed three touchdowns on Thursday night. Otherwise, he wasn't great. He completed 16 of his 27 pass attempts for just 160 yards. Wentz's first touchdown pass was a six-yard strike to Alshon Jeffery. His second was a three-yard toss to Dallas Goedert, and his final score came on a 20-yard […]

Justin Jackson Lands On Injury Report

Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (calf) landed on the injury report on Thursday and was listed as a limited participant in practice. Jackson should be able to play on Sunday against the Dolphins, but his practice status on Friday will tell us a lot. This will be the last week of Jackson serving […]

Jamaal Williams Leaves On Stretcher Thursday

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams (head) left the field on a cart with support for his head and neck on Thursday night after taking a vicious hit from Eagles linebacker Derek Barnett on the Packers first play from scrimmage. Williams gave the thumbs up as he left the field and was taken to […]

Mike Williams, Travis Benjamin Miss Practice Again

Los Angeles Chargers wide receivers Mike Williams (back), Travis Benjamin (hip), tight end Virgil Green (groin), kicker Michael Badgley (groin) and cornerback Casey Hayward (back) all missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Everyone on this list is looking questionable, at best, to face off against the Dolphins in Week 4. It would […]

Broncos Defense Could Be Without Kareem Jackson

Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said that defensive back Kareem Jackson (hamstring) is "truly questionable" for Week 4 against the Jaguars. Jackson didn't practice on Wednesday and won't participate on Thursday either. If Jackson is inactive, it'll mean more playing time for Duke Dawson on Sunday. Denver's defense hasn't been terrible, but they've been […]

Za'Darius Smith Expected To Play For Packers Defense

Green Bay Packers pass-rusher Za'Darius Smith (knee), who has three sacks in three games, is expected to play on Thursday night against the Eagles. He was listed as questionable and was limited in practice all week. Smith, a key addition in the offseason, has been part of the reason why the Packers Defense overall has […]

Albert Wilson Expects To Return In Week 4

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (calf) is expecting to return in Week 4 against the Chargers. Wilson has returned to limited practices this week and said he feels "really good, ready to go." He should return to become the slot man inside next to Devante Parker and rookie Preston Williams. Wilson averaged 56 yards […]

Josh Doctson Targeting Nov. 10 Return

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Josh Doctson (hamstring), who is currently on Injured Reserve, is targeting a Nov. 10 return at the Cowboys, which is the first game he's eligible to return for. Doctson could take Laquon Treadwell's spot as the No. 3 wideout on the roster, but there are no guarantees. He does have familiarity […]

Kyle Rudolph Expects Vikes To Remain Run-First Team

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph thinks what we've seen from them in the first three games is what they will continue to be throughout the 2019 season. "That’s the kind of offense that coach Mike Zimmer wants to have, that’s the kind of mentality that we’ve had success with in the past. We run […]

Ito Smith In Non-Contact Jersey

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith (concussion) is practicing and returning kicks in a non-contact jersey on Thursday. While Smith might not be completely cleared from the league's concussion protocol, he's at least making some good progress and has a real shot to back up Devonta Freeman in the backfield in Week 4 against the […]

Damiere Byrd Not Practicing Thursday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Damiere Byrd (hamstring) is missing practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Byrd has been surprisingly effective as the team's third wideout behind Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk, but he has yet to find the end zone. He's merely a dart throw flex play in deeper leagues when he's active, […]

Tyler Higbee On Track To Play Against Bucs

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that tight end Tyler Higbee (lung) is on track to play in Week 4 against the Buccaneers. It means that Gerald Everett will likely go back to backup duties. In an offense with a ton of playmakers already, the Rams very rarely use the tight end position […]

Danny Amendola Out Again Thursday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola (chest) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Amendola's status for this Sunday against the Chiefs is seriously in doubt unless he returns to practice on Friday. If he were to play, Amendola would have deep sleeper appeal as a WR4/flex in a game that will certainly […]

Vance McDonald Sits Out Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) did not practice on Thursday. Also sitting out was cornerback Joe Haden (shoulder). McDonald is suffering from an AC sprain, but the Steelers are optimistic his injury isn't a long-term concern. It doesn't mean he won't miss this Monday's tilt with the Bengals, however. He'll likely be questionable […]

Mark Andrews Misses Practice Again

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (foot), who leads the team with 19 catches through three weeks, missed his second straight practice on Thursday. He's played through the foot injury and has been productive the last two weeks, but his absences this week leave his status for Week 4 against the Browns in question. It's […]

Delanie Walker Misses Practice Again Thursday

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (knee) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. If Walker doesn't practice again on Friday, he'd be in serious danger of missing Week 4 against the Falcons. Tennessee's passing offense is among the worst in the NFL, but Walker has always been quarterback Marcus Mariota's favorite target, […]

Terry McLaurin Pops Up On Injury Report

Washington Redskins rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin (hamstring) was limited with a hamstring injury in practice on Thursday, and it's unclear if it will have a lingering impact moving forward. It's not ideal, but as long as the rookie practices again on Friday, he should suit up in Week 4 in an ideal matchup against […]

T.Y. Hilton, Darius Leonard Out For Second Straight Day

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quadriceps) and All-Pro linebacker Darius Leonard (concussion) were out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Hilton could still play in Week 4 against the Raiders, but we'd feel a lot better about keeping him in our lineups if he got in some work at practice on […]
