Jack Doyle, Adam Vinatieri Miss Practice

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (hip) missed practice for the second straight day on Tuesday. It looks like he'll be missing his third straight game. That lines up Eric Ebron for another TE1 performance with receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) also looking unlikely to suit up on Thursday against the Patriots. Kicker Adam Vinatieri […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Still Looking For First Touchdown

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. heads into Week 5 with 31 receptions on the season for 331 yards but still looking for his first touchdown of 2018. Beckham Jr. has enjoyed an active start to the season but his current YPC of 10.7 is far below his usual career numbers. The Giants […]

Saquon Barkley Takes RB1 Status Against Panthers

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is off to a strong start to his rookie season with 453 total yards and three touchdowns in his first four games. He already has 27 receptions out of the backfield and has been quarterback Eli Manning's safety valve in the passing game. Barkley will go up against […]

Eli Manning Hopes To Unlock Offense Against Panthers

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has passed for 1,055 yards, four touchdowns and one interception through four games. He has completed 74.2% of his passes with a QB rating of 99.1 but the offense has been mediocre thus far this season and Manning is averaging only seven yards per completion. This week the Giants […]

Terrance Mitchell Suffers Fractured Wrist

Cleveland Browns cornerback Terrance Mitchell (wrist) suffered a fractured wrist in the Week 4 overtime loss to the Raiders. On the season, Mitchell had forced two fumbles, recovered one and had an interception before his injury in the second quarter. Mitchell had been a turnover machine, so losing him for an extended period of time […]

Nick Chubb To See More Work?

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Nick Chubb, who had his first career 100-yard game in the Week 4 loss to the Raiders, could be in line for more touches after carrying the ball just three times. Chubb had touchdown runs of 63 and 41 yards in the game and had just seven carries for 41 […]

Antonio Callaway's Playing Time Could Be Reduced

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said rookie wide receiver Antonio Callaway's playing time might have to be pulled back a bit even after playing 70 percent of the snaps in Week 4. Callaway slipped and had a pass tipped off his hands that went for a pick-six, and he caught just three of his […]

Benjamin Watson Has Little Week 5 Fantasy Value

New Orleans Saints tight end Benjamin Watson heads into Week 5 with 13 receptions for 157 yards on the season. Watson caught only one pass for 23 yards against the Giants in Week 4 and will face a Redskins defense that has allowed only one touchdown to opposing tight ends through their first three games. […]

Cairo Santos Signing With Rams

The Los Angeles Rams are signing free-agent kicker Cairo Santos on Tuesday, according to a source. With Greg Zuerlein (groin) close to returning, Santos may not be on the job for long, however. Still, Santos could be a streaming option for those that own Zuerlein or for any owners looking struggling at the position. Santos […]

Rams Releasing Sam Ficken

The Los Angeles Rams are releasing kicker Sam Ficken on Tuesday and plan on signing another veteran until Greg Zuerlein (groin) returns from his injury, according to a source. Ficken wasn't very successful in just two games for the Rams, going 1-for-3 on his field goal attempts. Whoever the Rams sign as the next temporary […]

Ted Ginn Is Boom-Or-Bust Option In Week 5

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn will try and get back on track after failing to register a catch in Week 4 against the Giants. The veteran receiver still has the speed to produce chunk plays on offense but continues to be plagued by drops. The recent emergence of receiver Cameron Meredith further depresses […]

Cameron Meredith Improving But Not Fantasy Ready

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Cameron Meredith will try and build off of his three-catch, 32-yard performance in Week 4 against the Giants. Meredith is slowly working his way into the mix as he learns the offense and recovers from a torn ACL in 2017. Meredith is a smart receiver who can be the perfect […]

Colts Sign Jonathan Williams

The Indianapolis Colts signed running back Jonathan Williams to the practice squad on Tuesday and waived running back Jeremy McNichols in a corresponding move. Williams had three carries and one catch in three games for the Saints this year. With Robert Turbin coming off suspension, McNichols was no longer needed on the active roster. Marlon […]

Michael Thomas Ready To Bounce Back Against Redskins

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas will look to bounce back after catching only four passes against the Giants in Week 4. Thomas is off to a fantastic start, posting 42 catches for 445 yards and three touchdowns through the first four games. He will go up against a Redskins defense that is allowing […]

Mark Ingram Not Ready For Lineups Despite Return

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram will go up against a Redskins defense that has allowed the 16th fewest fantasy points to opposing runners this season. Ingram has been activated after serving a four-game suspension and will be ready to contribute right away. Not so fast fantasy owners as the Saints offense truly runs […]

Alvin Kamara Still An RB1 Against Redskins

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is off to an otherworldly start to his season, totaling 611 yards from scrimmage with six total touchdowns. He already has 35 receptions through four games and has been the heart and soul of the Saints offense. Kamara will take on a Redskins defense that has allowed the […]

Antonio Callaway Pleads Not Guilty To Misdemeanors

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Antonio Callaway pled not guilty last week to two misdemeanor charges coming from an August traffic stop, according to his attorney, Kevin Spellacy. The case is headed to a municipal court and probably won't be heard for a few weeks. It's unknown if Callaway will face a suspension from the […]

Drew Brees Has Fantastic Career Numbers On MNF

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will go up against a Redskins defense that has allowed the fourth fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in Week 5. This typically would be a tough matchup but the Saints are at home and Brees has dominated the competition playing on Monday Night Football. In 21 games on […]

Rob Gronkowski Misses Practice Tuesday

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle) was not spotted during Tuesday's walkthrough practice. Gronk is looking highly questionable for Thursday night against the Colts, even though his ankle injury isn't believed to be very serious. He's always a must-start if he's active, but Gronk owners should be making other plans just in case […]

Phillip Dorsett Loses Value With Return Of Julian Edelman

New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett has been solid through the first month of the season, posting 16 catches for 165 yards and two touchdowns. When the offense is flowing Dorsett's way, the receiver has delivered with some excellent catches. But his value should take a hit with the return of quarterback Tom Brady's […]

Tough To Trust Chris Hogan For TNF

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan heads into Thursday night with only eight receptions, 109 yards and two touchdowns on the season. It has been a disappointing start for Hogan and the offense will have another mouth to feed with the return of receiver Julian Edelman. It has been speculated that Hogan's struggles coincide […]

T.Y. Hilton Out Again Tuesday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) missed his second straight practice on Tuesday. It's not looking good for Hilton's chances of suiting up in Week 5 this Thursday night against the Patriots. If you have him, starting planning to be without him this week. If Hilton is inactive, Chester Rogers and Ryan Grant […]

Josh Gordon's Value Slowly Rising

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon will look to build off of his two catches for 32 yards when the team takes on the Colts on Thursday night. The numbers are not impressive but the simple fact that Gordon was on the field and is playing snaps in the offense is a plus. He […]

Julian Edelman Has Deceiving Matchup For TNF

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman will play in his first game since the 2016 season when the Patriots take on the Colts on Thursday. Edelman will go up against a Colts defense that has allowed the second fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers. The Texans, however, were able to burn the Colts in […]

James White Again Should Be Active On Thursday

New England Patriots running back James White is off to a fantastic start to his season, totaling 303 yards from scrimmage with 22 receptions and four total touchdowns through four games. White does not see many carries from the backfield but has been a favorite target of quarterback Tom Brady. He ostensibly has replaced what […]

Sony Michel Has Favorable Week 5 Matchup

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel will look to build off of his 112-yard, one-touchdown performance when the Patriots take on the Colts on Thursday night. Michel's value has been on the rise for the past few weeks and took advantage of his opportunities against the Dolphins in Week 4. He will now go […]

Tom Brady In Line To Produce Against Colts

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will go up against a Colts defense that has allowed the ninth fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in Week 5. But Brady and Co. will take on the Colts team on a short week that just gave up 375 passing yards to the Texans Deshaun Watson. The Patriots […]

Marshawn Lynch Not Slowing Down

Oakland Raiders veteran running back Marshawn Lynch had 130 yards in the Week 4 overtime win over the Browns, which was his highest rushing output since going for 140 yards for Seattle against the Giants in 2014. "We've got a good back over there, Doug Martin, who's ready to roll. And Doug can't get on […]

Morgan Burnett, Mike Hilton Expected To Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said safety Morgan Burnett (groin) and slot cornerback Mike Hilton (elbow) are expected to practice this week. Getting both players back for Week 5 against a strong Falcons passing game would be huge for a secondary that has been roasted through four weeks of the season.

Patriots To Leave Dont'a Hightower At Linebacker

The New England Patriots will not be moving linebacker Dont'a Hightower to defensive end despite suggestions by the social media. “Yeah, I think we’ll keep him at linebacker,” head coach Bill Belichick said. Hightower has been organizing the defense from his middle linebacker spot, which is pretty important for the communication of play calling. He's […]
