Eric Berry Doubtful For Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) will be listed as doubtful for Week 6 against the Patriots on Sunday night. What's new? Berry hasn't practiced or played at all in the regular season, and there remains no timetable for his return. A Chiefs secondary that has given up big plays all year could be […]

Julio Jones Could Be In For A Monster Day Sunday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones could be in line for a monster day against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. The Buccaneers rank second worst in term of fantasy points surrendered to wide receivers. Unlike the Steelers the Buccaneers do not have a corner capable of causing Jones any significant problems. So far this […]

Ito Smith To Serve As Primary Backup Sunday

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith will serve as the Falcons primary backup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Sunday. In the three games that Smith was backup for Tevin Coleman he saw an average of 8.7 rushes or targets per game. Smith has also scored touchdowns in the last two games, receiving goal line carries […]

O.J. Howard Listed As Questionable

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Falcons. Howard got in a full practice on Friday, so it's looking like he will suit up in a great matchup against the banged-up Atlanta defense. If Howard plays, he'll be a locked-in TE1, while his return will […]

Justin Houston Doubtful For Sunday Night

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) will be doubtful to play on Sunday night against the Patriots while dealing with a sore hamstring. He was unable to practice all week. Against a Patriots team at full strength on offense, losing Houston, one of their best pass rushers, is a big blow to an already […]

Tevin Coleman A Must-Start Sunday

Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman is a must-start fantasy running back in Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With Devonta Freeman (foot) officially ruled out, Coleman will once again be the lead back for the Falcons. In the previous three games that Freeman missed Coleman averaged 15 rushes and 3.3 targets per game. […]

De'Anthony Thomas Fractures Leg Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver De'Anthony Thomas (leg) fractured his leg in practice on Thursday and will likely miss the rest of the season. It's a tough break for Thomas after he suffered the same injury in 2017. The 25-year-old had just three catches on five targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in five […]

Matt Ryan Should Have A Bounce-Back Sunday

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan will be looking to have a bounce-back game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Ryan struggled against the Steelers on the road last week but when he is at home it is a different story. This season at home Ryan is averaging 355 passing yards and 3.3 passing touchdowns […]

Josh Doctson Questionable To Face Panthers

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson (heel) is questionable to play in Week 6 against the Panthers. If he does play, he could be limited in his snaps. "Yeah, we're just hoping that when the play presents itself for him to make a big play for us. He's a guy that we have to give […]

Royce Freeman Looks to Bounce Back After Disappointing Week 5

After finding the end zone in three straight games, Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman managed just 31 yards on five carries in the Broncos Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. The five carries were a season-low for Freeman -- as he fell victim to game script with the Broncos facing a two-score […]

DeMarcus Lawrence Playing Through Torn Shoulder Labrum

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (shoulder) said he has been playing through a torn labrum in his shoulder the last two years. He will consider having offseason surgery to fix it. Lawrence was in a lot of pain last Sunday night but said he feels much better now. It didn't really slow him down […]

Sean Lee Officially Out In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) has ruled out of Week 6 against the Jaguars and will miss his third straight game with a strained left hamstring. Lee said he would play next week if he's 100 percent, but he could wait until after the bye week to be safe. It helps that rookie Leighton […]

Phillip Lindsay Seeking Fourth Double-Digit Fantasy Performance

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh says the Rams run defense has been "Terrible, without question..." That is great news for Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay, as Denver's backs have attempted the eighth most rushing attempts, with his 5.75 yards per carry being good for 10th among RBs this season. Fellow RB mate […]

Redskins Playmakers All Listed As Questionable

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said running backs Adrian Peterson (ankle, knee, shoulder) and Chris Thompson (rib) and wide receivers Jamison Crowder (ankle) and Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) will all be questionable for Week 6 against the Panthers. For an offense already struggling for production, this is bad news. Richardson looks to be the […]

Nick Vannett Questionable For London Game

Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett (back) is listed as questionable to face the Raiders in Week 6 in London. Vannett has been serving as the main pass-catching tight end with rookie Will Dissly out for the year, but he remains a desperation TE2 for those owners hurting at the position. If he sits out, […]

Laremy Tunsil Ready To Play In Week 6

Miami Dolphins offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil (concussion) is out of the concussion protocol and is ready to play in Week 6 against the Bears. It's great news for an offensive line that will have their hands full against a ferocious Chicago pass rush, namely All-Pro defensive end Khalil Mack.

Aaron Rodgers Has Setback With Knee

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) told reporters that he had a "setback" with his knee rehab that might force him to wear a larger brace on Monday night against the 49ers. It's notable, but if it doesn't keep him from playing, fantasy owners shouldn't be too concerned. Rodgers remains a high-end QB1 on […]

Derwin James Leads A Strong Nickel Package

Los Angeles Chargers rookie safety Derwin James has taken the league by storm so far, and his presence has helped the team have one of the best nickel packages in the game. The Chargers are allowing just 4.9 yards per play when in a nickel defense, third-best in the NFL, and they get to face […]

Grady Jarrett Out For Falcons

Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Jarrett has now missed the last two games. Atlanta's defense has had the worst luck with injuries so far this year and are missing their best playmakers at each level. Any team facing the Falcons has the potential […]

Austin Ekeler Is Incredibly Efficient

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is the model of modern efficiency in the NFL. Ekeler is the next iteration of Danny Woodhead as he has adopted the "backup" role to Melvin Gordon and made it into a weapon. Ekeler is only averaging 9.5 touches per game, but he's turning those into an average […]

Emmanuel Sanders Could be in For a Huge Game

At 17.8 fantasy points per game, Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders sits 19th among WRs this season in PPR scoring despite the deplorable play of his quarterback Case Keenum. Averaging seven receptions (on nine targets) and 77.2 yards per game, Sanders has been one of the more consistent receiving options to be had in […]

Devonta Freeman Officially Ruled Out Against Bucs

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn officially ruled running back Devonta Freeman (foot) out for Week 6 against the Buccaneers. Freeman hasn't played in back-to-back games this year after injuring his knee in the season opener and missing three weeks. He could be back in Week 7, but he hasn't helped his fantasy owners at […]

Melvin Gordon Should Feast Again

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has been one of the most valuable assets in fantasy so far, and he shouldn't be too slowed down in Cleveland. Gordon's versatility of running and pass-catching has him on pace for more than 1,800 total yards from scrimmage and a ridiculous 20 total touchdowns. While the Browns […]

Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Expected To Start

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) are both expected to start in Week 6 against the Jets. Castonzo will be making his season debut as quarterback Andrew Luck's blind-side protector. Mack will be making just his second start of the season. While he should be the main option […]

Marlon Mack Expected to Start Against Jets

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) is expected to be the lead back for the team's Week 6 contest with the New York Jets, barring any setbacks. While his hamstring issue has kept him sidelined for four games this season, it appears likely that he will be ready to return to a full-blown backfield […]

Case Keenum Looks to Keep Things Rolling

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum has yet to finish a game this season without throwing an interception. However, he'll be taking on a Los Angeles Rams team in Week 6 which hasn't intercepted an opposing QB since Week 2 while allowing eight passing touchdowns and an average of 22.9 fantasy points per game to the […]

T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle Ruled Out

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) have officially been ruled out for Week 6 against the Jets. Hilton and Doyle didn't practice all week, so it's no surprise here. They should have a better shot at returning next week with more time to rest. Tight end Eric […]

Tyrell Williams Remains A Long Shot

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams continues to be a ghost of the field as he is in on most plays but barely gets any looks. This week in Cleveland, he'll likely end up in the same boat. Williams is a former 1,000-yard receiver, but he's averaging just three targets per game, so he's […]

Greg Olsen Listed As Questionable

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (foot) is officially questionable for Week 6 against the Redskins, although head coach Ron Rivera likes Olsen's chances of playing. Olsen is attempting to return after fracturing his foot in the season opener. He could be on a snap count, but Olsen is a low-end TE1 given how poor […]

Mike Williams May See More Chances

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has been hurting for opportunities recently because there are so many good targets on the Chargers, but this week in Cleveland may give him more chances. Cleveland's young defense has been great at limiting quarterback fantasy performance this season, but they still give up plenty of points to […]
