Green Bay Packers Defense Looks Strong In Week 4

The Green Bay Packers defense showed up to play on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. They were able to shutout the Bills in this contest, and that was the key to winning because the offense wasn't all that great in this one. It's been a long time since the Packers won in this fashion, because […]

Mason Crosby Had High Fantasy Value In Week 4

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had a pretty good game as far as fantasy production is concerned. He did miss one of his two extra-point attempts, but he went three-for-three in his field goal attempts and hit a big 52 yard field goal. Most leagues give extra points for field goals over 50 yards […]

Jamaal Williams Struggles Again In Week 4

Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams still saw 11 carries in Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills, but he was not able to generate many yards. He only managed to get 27 yards on Sunday, and he didn't have any targets in the receiving game which is where he has most of his value. […]

Brandon McManus Remains Perfect

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus connected on all three of his field goal attempts Monday night (46, 42, and 34 yards) in the Broncos 23-27 loss to the Chiefs. McManus is now a perfect seven-for-seven on the season and will remain a viable option at kicker given the Broncos struggles finding the end zone.

Emmanuel Sanders Held in Check Monday Night

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders caught five of seven targets for 45 yards Monday night against the Chiefs - he also added 18 yards on one carry. Sanders has been Denver's most productive receiver through four weeks but has now failed to reach 50 yards in two-straight games -- and hasn't found the end […]

Travis Benjamin Out Indefinitely

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (foot) aggravated his foot injury in the Week 4 win over the 49ers and is now out indefinitely. Benjamin caught his only target for just two yards before getting hurt again on Sunday. He has already missed two games with the injury and looks due to sit out […]

David Moore To Be Mixed In More

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said to expect more "mixing in" of wide receiver David Moore, perhaps at the expense of veteran Brandon Marshall. Marshall has dropped four passes in the last two games and hasn't topped four catches or 46 yards through four weeks of the season. Marshall had six targets in each […]

Randall Cobb Wasn't Close To Playing

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) said he wasn't close to being able to play in Week 4 against the Bills. He doesn't know if he'll be able to return in Week 5 against the Lions. "It's feeling better. I made strides the past couple days and hopefully I can continue to make […]

Demaryius Thomas Approaching Fantasy Irrelevance

Denver Broncos wide receiver Demaryius Thomas received seven targets Monday night (tied for the team lead) but was largely held in check, picking up just 24 yards on four receptions. Thomas is now averaging 42 yards receiving over the Broncos first four games and has not found the end zone since Week 1. The targets […]

Ezekiel Elliott Dealing With Ankle And Knee Issues

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (ankle, knee) is dealing with an ankle injury and bursitis in his knee, but head coach Jason Garrett said the team is "optimistic he'll practice and play this week." The star running back played 53 of 69 offensive snaps in Week 4 with 25 carries for 152 yards and […]

Steelers Still Interested In Trading Le'Veon Bell?

The Pittsburgh Steelers are still expected to be interested in listening to trade offers for running back Le'Veon Bell, according to league sources. Bell is planning to report to the team during their Week 7 bye. Bell owners will be happy that they can begin using him in Week 8, but he'll still miss half […]

Phillip Lindsay Scores First Career Rushing Touchdown

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay plunged his way into the end zone late in the third quarter for the first rushing touchdown of his young career. Lindsay was once again productive on the ground -- picking 69 yards on 12 carries -- and will look to keep things rolling in Week 5 against the […]

Josh Gordon Limited Monday

New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon (hamstring) was limited in practice on Monday. Gordon caught both of his targets for 32 yards in his debut with New England in Week 4 against the Dolphins. He should be fine to play this Thursday against the Colts, and his role could expand quickly if tight end […]

Rob Gronkowski Doesn't Practice Monday

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (ankle) did not practice on Monday. Gronk's injury wasn't deemed serious, but he could be up against the clock in order to play on a short week this Thursday against the Colts. Expect him to be questionable and possibly a game-time decision. Have other plans in place in […]

Royce Freeman's Touchdown Streak Lives On

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman took eight carries and turned them into 67 yards and a touchdown Monday night in the Broncos 23-27 loss to the Chiefs. Once again, Freeman saw less touches than fellow-rookie RB Phillip Lindsay but remains a low-end RB2/flex option moving forward, given his affinity to find the end zone.

Bobby McCain Out 2-3 Weeks

Miami Dolphins cornerback Bobby McCain (knee) will be out two to three weeks with a knee injury, according to a source. Miami's secondary wasn't all that great to begin with, so this is a notable loss in the immediate future. McCain had 17 tackles and an interception through four weeks of the season.

Daniel Kilgore's Season Could Be Over

The Miami Dolphins fear that center Daniel Kilgore (triceps) suffered a torn triceps in Week 4, according to a source. That is a significant injury that would likely require him to miss the rest of the season. With Kilgore out for the foreseeable future, Travis Swanson is expected to fill in for a declining offensive […]

Case Keenum Fails to Capitalize on Favorable Matchup

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum completed 21 of his 33 passes for 245 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception in the Broncos 23-27 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs Monday night. The same Kansas City Chiefs who came into the game allowing the second-most fantasy points to opposing signal callers. After tossing three TDs in […]

Mike Glennon To Remain As Backup

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said he expects quarterback Mike Glennon to remain as the backup to rookie Josh Rosen. That means that Sam Bradford will remain as the No. 3 quarterback. We never expected Bradford to remain as the starter all year, but falling to third on the depth chart this quickly just […]

Hayden Hurst Has Good Chance To Play This Week

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst (hip) has a good chance of playing in Week 5 against the Browns after almost being cleared to play in Week 4. Hurst has yet to play in his rookie season. Head coach John Harbaugh said they are looking for Hurst to practice in full this week after […]

Alex Collins' Fumbling Issues Becoming A Problem

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said "can't have it" in relation to running back Alex Collins' fumbling issues early in the year. The coach expects Collins to work on his issues in practice, and he noted the running back has had the issues while fighting for extra yards. Collins has already lost two fumbles […]

Eric Ebron, Adam Vinatieri On Week 5 Injury Report

Indianapolis Colts tight end Eric Ebron (knee) and kicker Adam Vinatieri (groin) were both on the injury report for Week 5 on Monday. However, both players practiced in full on Monday and should be fine to play this Thursday against the Patriots. Ebron has strong TE1 potential again this week if Jack Doyle (hip) continues […]

T.Y. Hilton Misses Practice Monday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring) did not practice on Monday. The Colts could just be resting Hilton with a short week before facing the Patriots this Thursday, but this is something to watch. Hilton caught four passes on six targets in the Week 4 loss to the Texans, but he did have […]

Joe Mixon's Week 5 Status Up In The Air

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis said "we'll see" when asked about running back Joe Mixon's (knee) status for Week 5 against the Dolphins. Mixon has been out since Week 2, but he's on the verge of returning. He would probably be a little bit more limited if he returned this week, though, potentially lowering […]

Falcons Hope Devonta Freeman Will Return This Week

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said the team is hoping that running back Devonta Freeman (knee) can return in Week 5 against the Steelers. Freeman has been out since the season opener against the Eagles on Sept. 6. If he returns this Sunday, expect him to share more touches with Tevin Coleman in the […]

Jaguars Unsure When Leonard Fournette Will Return

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said he doesn't know how long running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) will miss after aggravating his injury in Week 4. Fournette missed two games before, and he figures to miss at least that much this time around. Fournette is turning into an early-round bust so far for fantasy owners, […]

Jonathan Stewart Out Eight Weeks

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that running back Jonathan Stewart (foot) is dealing with an eight-week injury. There remains "potential to bring him back" from Injured Reserve this year. J-Stew was really only a handcuff option for Saquon Barkley owners, but he wasn't much of one to begin with. Wayne Gallman is […]

Ed Dickson On Track To Return Soon

With Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Will Dissly (knee) expected to be out for the rest of the year, head coach Pete Carroll said that the team could look to add a tight end off the practice squad. Ed Dickson (quadriceps) is on track to return from the Non-Football Injury list after Week 6 when […]

Chris Carson Expected To Play In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that running back Chris Carson (hip) will return in Week 5 against the Rams, but Carson's return won't come at the expense of Mike Davis. Carson was a surprise inactive in Week 4. “He’s (Davis is) going to fit in somewhere. He needs to play. He needs to […]

Aaron Colvin's Season In Jeopardy

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien said cornerback Aaron Colvin (ankle) could play again this year, but the team is unsure of that at this time. Colvin has just 18 tackles through four games, but his injury is a tough blow to an already thin secondary moving forward. While Houston's defensive line remains top notch, […]
