Robby Anderson Won't Be Suspended

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson will not be suspended for his two arrests in the last year, according to an NFL spokesman. It's good news for Anderson and his owners, but Anderson's start to the season has been a big disappointment. He has just eight catches on 16 targets for 108 yards and […]

Joe Mixon Not Yet Cleared For Week 5

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) said he has not yet been cleared for Week 5 against the Dolphins but hopes to be. If he's not cleared, he will "for sure" play in Week 6 against the Steelers. It's looking like the Bengals will hold Mixon out for at least one more week to […]

Leonard Fournette, D.J. Hayden Ruled Out

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and cornerback D.J. Hayden (toe) have been ruled out in Week 5 against the Chiefs. Fournette could wind up missing multiple games, as head coach Doug Marrone said he doesn't know how much time the running back will miss. The loss of Hayden will make it tougher to […]

Devonta Freeman Expected To Return This Week

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said that running back Devonta Freeman (knee) is back at practice this week and is expected to return in Week 5 against the Steelers. Freeman has missed the last three games after suffering a knee injury late in the season opener against the Falcons. Freeman could have his snaps […]

Dez Bryant Prefers To Re-Sign With Cowboys

Free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant Tweeted on Wednesday that he'd prefer to re-sign with the Dallas Cowboys at this point. Dallas' passing game ranks 30th in the league entering Week 5.

Darren Sproles Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) remains day-to-day. The team is also monitoring quadriceps injuries affecting running back Corey Clement and offensive tackle Jason Peters. Sproles hasn't played since the season opener and doesn't look particularly close to returning as a change-of-pace back behind Jay Ajayi. He's strictly a […]

Austin Seferian-Jenkins Expected To Miss Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) is not expected to practice on Wednesday. Seferian-Jenkins has been battling this injury all year but has yet to miss a game. He hasn't gone over three catches or 25 yards yet, though, and remains an uninspiring touchdown-dependent TE2 for fantasy purposes.

T.J. Yeldon Expected To Practice Wednesday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is expected to practice on Wednesday. Yeldon should be fine for Week 5 against the Chiefs, and he'll one again be in the RB2 conversation with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) already ruled out. Kansas City's defense has been their weak point all season, and they allow the most fantasy […]

Mark Ingram To Be Worked Into The Mix

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram is ready to make his season debut in Week 5 against the Redskins on Monday night after a four-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. "He wasn't gone for a year and a half or been a castaway on an island," head coach Sean Payton said. […]

Through four weeks, Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson has already been sacked 17 times. He is on pace to be sacked 68 times this year. The Houston offensive line allowed 54 sacks in 2017. Only the Bills have allowed more sacks so far this year. Watson has also been hit 43 times and is on […]

Eli Manning Not Risking Deep Plays

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning hasn't been willing to take deep shots down the field much through the first four weeks of the NFL season. “Risks are not what you want to take," Manning said. “You throw the ball down the field when it’s not risky, and then there’s forcing things and that leads […]

Grady Jarrett To Miss Week 5

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said on 92.9 The Game on Wednesday that defensive tackle Grady Jarrett (ankle) will miss the Week 5 game against the Steelers after spraining his ankle in Week 4. Quinn said it's a "week-to-week" situation for Jarrett. The Falcons signed free-agent defensive tackle Michael Bennett on Tuesday to help […]

Anthony Levine Sr. Named To PFF Team Of Week

Baltimore Ravens combo linebacker/safety Anthony Levine Sr. finally made a big play against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

Rams Pass Rush Takes Hit As Dominique Easley Hits IR

The Los Angeles Rams officially placed outside linebacker Dominique Easley (knee) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. While their pass rush has been good the past couple of weeks, Easley returning was expected to improve that even more. The loss of Easley makes the team even thinner at the outside linebacker spot. Their defense is still […]

Jordan Wilkins Should Be Avoided In Week 5

After four weeks of football, Indianapolis Colts running back Jordan Wilkins can't fall much further. Behind a suspect offensive line, he continues to lack production and is being thoroughly outdone by fellow rookie Nyheim Hines. Wilkins is the more natural running back, but that is not the type of player that this offense needs in […]

Nyheim Hines Has Flex Appeal In Week 5

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines has some flex appeal in PPR formats this week with veteran Marlon Mack (hamstring) expected to miss Thursday night's game against the New England Patriots. Hines burst onto the scene Sunday against the Houston Texans with nine catches and two touchdowns. While Hines doesn't have the best natural running […]

C.J. Beathard Only A Risky QB2 Option

San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard faces a formidable challenge in Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals 10th best pass defense (250.3 yards per game). Beathard showed no timidity in Week 4, slinging the rock 37 times for 298 yards and two touchdowns. However, he also threw two critical picks and failed to complete any […]

George Kittle Emerging As Matchup-Proof

After racking up 125 yards and a score from San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard in Week 4, tight end George Kittle is making the case for being both matchup and quarterback-proof. Seemingly the apple of Beathard’s eye, Kittle enters Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals third amongst tight ends with 316 receiving yards on […]

Alfred Morris Avoidable In Week 5

The outlook for San Francisco 49ers running back Alfred Morris is dimming as the team enters Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals. Morris logged a season-low 14 snaps in Week 4 and registered only 18 total yards on four touches. Averaging 13 carries through the first three weeks, this was a major setback. The Niners […]

49ers Defense Facing Rookie-Led Cardinals

The San Francisco 49ers defense enters Week 5 sixth-worst in points allowed (29.5 per game) and tied for second-to-last in turnovers (three). The squad draws rookie quarterback Josh Rosen and the Arizona Cardinals, the league’s worst offense by a wide margin. Rosen has instilled some life into the Cardinals and through one-plus games, thrown a […]

John Brown A Candidate For Comeback Player Of Year

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver John Brown has been everything the team could have hoped for after signing the fifth-year veteran in the offseason. Brown is off to such a good start that he is No. 2 -- behind Houston Texans defensive end J.J Watt -- in ESPN's Brian Barnwell's quarter-season awards for Comeback Player of […]

Sammy Watkins Goes Catchless, Exits with Injury

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) finished Monday's game with one target and zero receptions before exiting in the second quarter with a hamstring injury. It's unclear whether or not Watkins will be ready for Week 5 against the Jaguars. The Jags defense has been elite, so Watkins is not a favorable target […]

Tyreek Hill Gets Back on Track

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill finished with two receptions for 54 yards in the Week 3 victory over San Francisco. Hill was able to put that game behind him and drop nine receptions and 54 yards in Week 4. He saw a season-high 13 targets in the victory over Denver on Monday. However, […]

Travis Kelce Has Another Solid Game in Week 4

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce put together another solid performance in Week 4 against the Broncos. Kelce caught seven passes for 78 yards and one touchdown on Monday. He saw double digit targets for the third consecutive week. Clearly, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Kelce have found instant chemistry after the Week 1 dud. […]

Kareem Hunt Runs Wild in Win Over Denver

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had by far his best game of the season against the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Hunt rushed 19 times for 121 yards and one touchdown in the 27-23 victory on Monday. Hunt was also able to catch three passes for 54 yards, so it was a huge […]

Patrick Mahomes Throws for Over 300 Yards Again

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes played well on Monday despite facing a fairly strong Denver defense. Mahomes went 28-for-45 with 304 passing yards and one touchdown in the victory over the Broncos on Monday. This was the third game in a row that Mahomes has thrown over 300 yards. However, he only threw one […]

Mychal Kendricks Suspended Indefinitely

Jaguars Work Out Orleans Darkwa, Matt Dayes

The Jacksonville Jaguars worked out free-agent running backs Orleans Darkwa and Matt Dayes on Tuesday. This is an indication that Leonard Fournette will miss multiple games after aggravating his hamstring injury in Week 4. In the meantime, T.J. Yeldon and Corey Grant should share the backfield duties. Yeldon will be an RB2 in a good […]

Will Dissly, Earl Thomas Put On IR

The Seattle Seahawks placed rookie tight end Will Dissly (knee) and free safety Earl Thomas (leg) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. Both Dissly and Thomas will miss the rest of the season. Dissly tore his patellar tendon, which is a tough injury to come back from. He won't be guaranteed to be ready for the […]

Sterling Shepard Hopes To Stay Hot Against Panthers

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard will look to stay hot after posting 16 receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns over his last two games. Shepard is a talented receiver but the Giants offense has struggled coming up with big plays in the first month of the season. Shepard and the Giants will […]
