Giovani Bernard Not Taking Part In Practice

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) is not practicing on Wednesday. Bernard is hoping to return from his knee sprain soon, but it might not be this Sunday night against the Chiefs. When Bernard is cleared, he'll return to his change-of-pace duties behind Joe Mixon and be in the mix as an RB3/flex play […]

Devin Funchess A Borderline WR2 This Week

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Devin Funchess is a borderline WR2 this week. Funchess was impressive against the Washington Redskins and now comes up against a team that has struggled against pass catchers this season. The Eagles currently give up the 7th most points to the position, and the Panthers will look to exploit that with […]

Greg Olsen To Build On His Return From Injury

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen will be looking to build on his return from injury against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 7. While the Eagles are one of the better teams thus far against the position this season they are yet to go up against one that is as talented as Olsen. Olsen had […]

T.Y. Hilton Practices In Full

Updating a previous report, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) is practicing in full on Wednesday after missing the last two games. “The guys need me,” Hilton said earlier in the day. “So I’m here for them.” However, neither Hilton nor head coach Frank Reich are guaranteeing that he suits up in Week […]

Christian McCaffrey Could Struggle This Week

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey could find things a bit of a struggle this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. McCaffrey has not been the same player he was before his bye week, and he could struggle against a team that has only given up two rushing touchdowns all season and ranks as the team […]

Cam Newton With Good Chance To Bounce Back Against Eagles

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has a good chance to bounce back from his display against the Washington Redskins in his Week 7 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles haven't looked quite the same team that they were last year, and currently, rank around the middle of the NFL in points allowed per game […]

No Practice For Theo Riddick

Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Coming off a bye week, this is not a good sign for Riddick's chances of playing in Week 7 against the Dolphins. If he's out or limited, it'd mean more snaps and touches for both rookie Kerryon Johnson and LeGarrette Blount. Johnson has […]

Isaiah Crowell, Robby Anderson Sitting Out Of Practice

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) and wide receiver Robby Anderson (hamstring) both did not practice on Wednesday. Both players should be able to return to practice at some point this week and play in Week 7 against the Vikings, but we'll have to keep an eye on their status moving forward. Crowell […]

Robert Turbin Sidelined Wednesday

Indianapolis Colts running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Turbin went down with what looked to be a serious shoulder injury in Week 6, so we wouldn't be surprised if he's unable to play this Sunday against the Bills. He has just four carries for 10 yards on the year and also […]

Julian Edelman Will Have Plenty Of PPR Appeal Against Bears

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman has 11 catches for 111 yards and one touchdown through the first two games he's played this season. Edelman will have a favorable matchup this Sunday against a Bears secondary that is allowing the fifth most fantasy points to opposing receivers this season. They have allowed six receiving […]

Chris Hogan Hopes To Stay In The Mix For Week 7

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan has been on the rise the past few games and is coming off of a four-catch, 78-yard performance heading into Week 7. Hogan got off to a slow start this season and was barely playing early on. But he has come down with some timely catches over the […]

Josh Gordon An Intriguing Play Against Bears

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon's role in the offense continues to grow heading into the team's Week 7 matchup against the Bears. Gordon caught only five passes last week but displayed an increased knowledge of the offense and is slowly earning the trust of quarterback Tom Brady. He will go up against a […]

James White Should Be Active In Tough Matchup

New England Patriots running back James White will go up against a Bears defense that has allowed the second fewest fantasy points to opposing backs this season. White has been a revelation in the backfield for the Patriots, racking up 149 rushing yards, 323 receiving yards and five total touchdowns. He is quarterback Tom Brady's […]

Chris Thompson Limited Wednesday

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (knee, rib) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Thompson sat out in Week 6 but could return to face the division-rival Cowboys this Sunday. If he does, he'll remain in play as an RB3/flex in PPR leagues as the team's pass-catching back. Thompson's return would also slightly […]

Ted Ginn Still Not Practicing

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn (knee) remains out of practice on Wednesday. It's not a good sign coming off the bye week after he sat out in Week 5. Rookie Tre'Quan Smith, who caught two touchdowns in the team's last game, and Cameron Meredith have most likely passed Ginn on the depth chart […]

Sony Michel Could Struggle Against Bears

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will head into the team's Week 7 matchup against the Bears with plenty of steam. The rookie has been a stud over the last three games, racking up 318 rushing yards and four touchdowns. He continues to split time in the backfield with veteran James White but Michel […]

Adrian Peterson, Jamison Crowder, Paul Richardson Sit Out

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson (ankle, knee, shoulder) and wide receivers Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee) all sat out of practice on Wednesday. Peterson has been banged up for a few weeks now but continues to play. He'll remain a high-volume RB2, but his ceiling will be lowered a bit with the […]

Rob Gronkowski Should Find End Zone Against Bears

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski heads into Week 7 with 26 receptions for 405 yards but only one touchdown on the season. Gronk has come down with some huge catches this season but the Patriots have been judicious with how he has been deployed at times. The Patriots top red zone target should […]

Pump The Breaks On Raheem Mostert

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that running back Raheem Mostert over Alfred Morris isn't a permanent situation. Mostert worked out better on Monday night against the Packers and ran extremely well. Morris shockingly played zero snaps in the loss, while Mostert combined with Matt Breida in the backfield and ran for 87 […]

Tom Brady Will Be Tested Against Stout Bears Defense

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will lead the charge against a tough Bears defense that has allowed the 17th fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Brady's 13:6/TD:INT ratio is a little bit higher than past seasons for the future Hall of Famer but he still is an elite passer. He will face […]

Brock Osweiler To Make Another Start

Miami Dolphins quarterback Brock Osweiler will start in place of Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) for the second straight game in Week 7 against the Lions. Tannehill is not quite ready to return from his injury, and Osweiler is riding a high after throwing for 380 yards in the overtime win over the Bears. The Lions are […]

Trey Burton Has Strong Matchup Against New England

Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton will have a favorable matchup against a Patriots defense that is allowing the ninth most fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Burton has 15 catches for 199 yards and three touchdowns this season and has been utilized all over the field. Burton has been the beneficiary of head coach […]

Anthony Miller Not Fantasy Viable Yet

Chicago Bears wide receiver Anthony Miller will take on a beatable Patriots defense in Week 7. Miller was wide open for a 29-yard touchdown in last week's loss to the Dolphins and appears to be fully recovered from his shoulder injury. The rookie receiver has only nine catches on the season for 89 yards but […]

Allen Robinson Lacking Big Plays In Passing Game

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson will line up against a Patriots defense that has allowed the 14th most fantasy points to opposing receivers thus far this season. Robinson has been solid, yet unspectacular, in the Bears offense this season but has two touchdown catches in his last two games. But he is averaging only […]

Taylor Gabriel's Value On The Rise For Week 7

Chicago Bears wide receiver Taylor Gabriel will look to stay hot against a Patriots defense that is allowing the 14th most fantasy points to opposing receivers this season. Gabriel has 12 catches for 214 yards and two touchdowns over his last two games and his chemistry with quarterback Mitch Trubisky continues to grow. New England's […]

Tarik Cohen A Solid Flex Option Against Patriots

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen continues to impress heading into Week 7's action. Over his last two games, "The Human Joystick" has 14 catches for 211 yards with 84 rushing yards and two total touchdowns. His playing time is on the rise and he currently is the best home-run threat on the Bears offense. […]

Jordan Howard Lacks Upside In Week 7

Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard will look to get his season on track in Week 7 against the Patriots. Howard has been a frustrating fantasy asset to this point in the season and has lost touches to speedster Tarik Cohen. Howard is averaging 15.6 carries per game but has only 272 yards to show […]

Mitch Trubisky Has Fantasy Appeal Against Patriots

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky will look to stay hot against a Patriots defense that is allowing the eighth most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Over his last two games the second-year quarterback has thrown for 670 yards, rushed for 100 yards and has nine passing touchdowns. With two monster fantasy performances in a […]

Geoff Swaim a Low-Upside Option for Week 7

Dallas Cowboys tight end Geoff Swaim is a low-upside option for Week 7 against Washington. He's been the most productive and only fantasy-relevant tight end in Dallas so far this season, catching a total of 16 passes for 180 yards and a touchdown in six games. He seemed to be developing somewhat of a Jason […]

Terrelle Pryor Sitting Out Wednesday

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (groin) was not at practice on Wednesday. Cornerbacks Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) and Buster Skrine (concussion) were also out after missing Week 6. Pryor has a chance to see more targets with Quincy Enunwa dealing with a high ankle sprain, but now Pryor's status for Week 7 against the […]
