Ted Ginn Active In Week 16

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (knee) is active for Week 16 against the Steelers for the first time since Sept. 30 against the Giants. As a result, Austin Carr and Simmie Cobbs are healthy scratches on Sunday. Tight end Dan Arnold is also a healthy scratch. Ginn is a boost to New Orleans' […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Officially Active

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (groin) is officially active in Week 16 against the Saints. Smith-Schuster declared on Twitter on Saturday that he wouldn't be letting his fantasy owners down by sitting in a big game in New Orleans. He didn't lie. As the team's No. 2 behind Antonio Brown in a game that […]

DeSean Jackson Questionable To Return

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (foot) is questionable to return after suffering a foot injury in Week 16 against the Cowboys. He had just one catch on three targets in the first half and was an extremely risky WR4/5 coming into this game after missing the previous three games. Mike Evans, Chris Godwin […]

Eric Ebron Suffers Concussion

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (concussion) suffered a concussion in Week 16 against the Giants and will not return. It's a big loss for owners playing for a fantasy championship. Ebron caught three of his five targets for 28 yards before leaving the game. Ryan Hewitt and Mo Alie-Cox will fill in the rest […]

J.J. Nelson Inactive In Week 16

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver J.J. Nelson (illness) is inactive in Week 16 against the Rams. Tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (illness) is active. With Nelson out, Chad Williams and rookie Trent Sherfield will be in three-receiver sets alongside Larry Fitzgerald. Williams is returning for the first time since before Halloween and cannot be trusted in fantasy […]

Todd Gurley Ruled Out Against Cardinals

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (knee) has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Cardinals, according to a source. Gurley's owners will be seriously depressed as they try to win a fantasy title without him this weekend. You'll have to find a backup plan for the afternoon slate. Justin Davis is active, […]

T.J. Yeldon A Healthy Scratch

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon is a healthy scratch in Week 16 against the Dolphins. Rookie wide receiver D.J. Chark (quadriceps) and kicker Josh Lambo (groin) also remain out. Last week Carlos Hyde was a healthy scratch, but this week it's Yeldon. Hyde and rookie David Williams will back up Leonard Fournette, but neither […]

T.Y. Hilton Active Against Giants

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (ankle) is active for Week 16 against the Giants. Hilton has been fighting through injuries the last couple weeks and has missed a lot of practice time, but he's still active on game days. He's been one of the more consistent receivers for fantasy owners over the last four […]

Chris Ivory, Charles Clay Inactive

Buffalo Bills running back Chris Ivory (shoulder) and tight end Charles Clay are inactive for Week 16 against the Patriots. Ivory practiced in full late in the week, so it's a surprise that he's not playing. With LeSean McCoy back as the lead ball carrier, rookie Keith Ford should back up Shady against New England. […]

Kenny Golladay, Matthew Stafford, LeGarrette Blount Active

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (chest), quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) and running back LeGarrette Blount (calf) are all active in Week 16 against the Vikings despite being questionable to play. Golladay is the lone offensive weapon that fantasy owners can start during championship weekend, even in a tough matchup. Stafford continues to play through […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Says He's Playing

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (groin), who is questionable for Week 16 against the Saints, emphatically said on Twitter that he will play on Sunday. While we wouldn't necessarily make this a lock that he'll be active, it should calm his fantasy owners quite a bit. In what is projected to be a shootout […]

Willie Snead Not Targeted In Week 16

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead was not targeted in Saturday's 22-10 victory over the Chargers despite being on the field for 42 plays or 67.7 percent of the team's offensive snaps. It was the second time in the last five games that the 26-year-old has not even seen a pass his way. The fourth-year […]

Julio Jones Will Play Against Panthers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hip, ribs) will be active in Week 16 against the Panthers. Jones got the green light after pregame workouts and will play against Carolina. Despite being at less than 100 percent, the league's leader in receiving yardage is a must-start for fantasy owners with everything on the line this […]

Josh Gordon Had Multiple Violations Of Drug Policy

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon was suspended indefinitely by the league for multiple violations of the drug policy for more than just marijuana, according to sources. He will now need to show he's clean for a sustained period of time if he's to be reinstated eventually. It's possible that he could be reinstated […]

Spencer Ware Ruled Out In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for Week 16 against the Seahawks. Ware was doubtful to begin with, so fantasy owners weren't counting on him anyway. Damien Williams saw the most carries last Thursday with Ware out and should do so again. Williams had two touchdowns on the […]

Randall Cobb Out Against Jets

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (concussion) is officially out for Week 16 against the Jets. Cobb was doubtful to begin with, so nobody should've been planning to use him in fantasy lineups. Other than a big game in the season opener, Cobb was a disappointment in 2018 and is unlikely to play in […]

Lamar Miller, Keke Coutee Ruled Out

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller (ankle) and rookie wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) have both officially been ruled out for Week 16 against the Eagles. It's a tough break for Miller owners in the fantasy finals after he was injured early in Week 15. In his absence, Alfred Blue should lead this backfield in […]

Kenneth Dixon Loses Fumble In Week 16 Win

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenneth Dixon rushed for 28 yards on eight attempts and hauled in two passes for an additional 20 yards in Saturday's 22-10 victory over the Chargers. He also lost his first fumble of the campaign. The 24-year-old has tallied at least nine touches and 40 scrimmage yards in each of his […]

DeAndre Hopkins Playing In Week 16

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (ankle), who was questionable to play in Week 16 against the Eagles, tested his ankle in pregame warmups and gave the thumbs up. He will suit up on Sunday. In an excellent matchup against Philly's soft secondary, Hopkins is a must-start elite WR1, even if he's not fully 100 […]

Mark Andrews Reaches End Zone For Third Time This Season

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews caught both of his targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 22-10 victory over the Chargers. The rookie once again came up with a big play as he and Lamar Jackson hooked up for a stellar 68-yard catch and run that put the Ravens up 13-10 early […]

Gus Edwards Tops 100 Yards From Scrimmage

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards accumulated 92 rushing yards on 14 carries in Saturday's 22-10 victory over the Chargers. He also hauled in the second reception of his career for 13 yards to total 105 scrimmage yards. The undrafted rookie has racked up at least 67 yards on the ground in each of his […]

Lamar Jackson Throws For A Career-High 204 Yards

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed just 12 of 22 passes but was able to pass for a season-high 204 yards, thanks in large part to a 68-yard touchdown connection with Mark Andrews, in Saturday's 22-10 victory over the Chargers. It is the third straight game he has tossed a touchdown pass and didn't throw […]

Corey Davis Underwhelms In Win Against Redskins

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis did not fare too well in Saturday's game against the Washington Redskins. Davis was only targeted five times and hauled in three receptions for 45 yards. Davis also rushed for one yard. Only two of Davis' targets came from quarterback Marcus Mariota in the first half but after an […]

Derrick Henry Continues Solid Fantasy Production

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry had a solid day on Saturday against the Washington Redskins. Sharing the workload with Dion Lewis, Henry rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown with one reception for eight yards. Henry has been an excellent fantasy option throughout the fantasy playoffs and in most cases has been the extra […]

Marcus Mariota Exits Game In Second Quarter

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota finished Saturday’s game against the Washington Redskins in the second quarter with a stinger in his shoulder area. Quarterback Blaine Gabbert replaced him in the third quarter and helped lead the Titans to a 25-16 victory over Washington. Mariota put together a stat line consisting of 110 passing yards, seven […]

Damien Williams Is A Must Start In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams is likely to handle the majority of the workload against the Seahawks in Week 16 as Spencer Ware (hamstring) is doubtful for the game. Williams is coming off his best game of the season last week against the Chargers where he accumulated 49 rushing yards and two touchdowns […]

Matt Barkley To Be Bills Backup Quarterback Going Forward

Buffalo Bills quarterback Matt Barkley signed a two-year contract extension on Friday. The transaction essentially stabilizes the team's quarterback situation going forward as the 28-year-old will remain Josh Allen's backup and mentor. Barkley, who signed with the Bills on Oct. 31, was lauded by coach Sean McDermott this week for his support of Allen. He […]

Adam Humphries Could Be Flexed This Weekend

Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries has some flex appeal against the Cowboys. Dallas has a slight weakness in the slot and the Buccaneers could exploit it this weekend. Humphries has been the Bucs' most reliable WR over the past two months despite skidding recently. He's an okay start in PPR leagues and can be avoided […]

DeSean Jackson and Chris Godwin Should Be Benched in Week 16

Buccaneers wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Chris Godwin should not be started against the Cowboys this Sunday. With Jackson healthy, Godwin's target share is likely to take a hit. Jackson already is fairly boom-or-bust and could go off this weekend as he typically does against his ex-rival Cowboys, but just coming off an injury, he […]

Mike Evans a Start Despite Matchup

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is a native of Dallas and gets to play back home for the second time in his professional career. This is not some guarantee that he will perform well (as he was fairly mediocre there in 2016), but with the current state of skill players in Week 16, it's doubtful […]
