Adam Thielen Will Keep On Rolling In Week 4

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen has gone over 100 yards in every game so far this season and leads the entire NFL with 44 targets. That pattern should not change heading into Week 4 due to the injuries in the Los Angeles Rams secondary. Thielen always has the best matchup on the field due […]

Bengals Optimistic About A.J. Green

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis is very optimistic about wide receiver A.J. Green (groin) playing in Week 4 against the Falcons. Green's injury is an aggravation of a college injury, and anti-inflammatory medication has cleared it up. Green should bounce back in a big way this weekend if he's active against a Falcons secondary […]

Patrick Robinson Needs Surgery

New Orleans Saints cornerback Patrick Robinson (ankle) will need surgery to fix torn ligaments in his ankle. Robinson will be put on Injured Reserve and seems unlikely to be able to return this season. That puts an even bigger strain on a secondary that was already getting roasted regularly through the first three weeks. New […]

Kyle Rudolph A Top-10 TE Option For Week 4

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph has 12 receptions over the past two weeks and has started to become more integrated into the offense. The Los Angeles Rams were torched by Oakland Raiders tight end Jared Cook in the season opener, but have only allowed 62 yards to the position in the following two games. […]

Patriots Re-Signing Kenjon Barner

The New England Patriots have re-signed Kenjon Barner on Wednesday. With Rex Burkhead (neck) going on Injured Reserve, the Pats need more running back depth, which Barner will provide. James White and rookie Sony Michel will now split the backfield duties and are now much more attractive in fantasy starting lineups, beginning in Week 4 […]

Kirk Cousins In Tough Spot Against Stout Rams Defense

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins will be looking to rebound after a clunker of a game in Week 3. Unfortunately for him, he's facing the Los Angeles Rams who possess the best passing defense in the league through the early season. Luckily, starting corner Aqib Talib (ankle) is out of commission while fellow corner Marcus […]

A.J. Derby Not Practicing Wednesday

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) is not practicing on Wednesday after injuring his foot in Week 3 against the Raiders. It's not a good sign for his availability this weekend against the Patriots. Derby has just two catches on three targets for 35 yards and a touchdown through two weeks, so he hasn't […]

T.J. Yeldon Unlikely To Practice Wednesday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is unlikely to practice on Wednesday. Yeldon started and played through his ankle injury last weekend with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) inactive for a second straight week. It's looking more and more likely that Fournette will make his return against the Jets this Sunday, so Yeldon would go back […]

Leonard Fournette, Austin Seferian-Jenkins Expected To Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring), tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) and defensive end Calais Campbell (ankle) are all expected to practice on Wednesday. Fournette has missed the last two games but is trending in the right direction and should be able to suit up in Week 4 against the Jets this weekend. If […]

Josh McDaniels Not Worried About Josh Gordon

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels doesn't think there will be issues with wide receiver Josh Gordon learning the offense after being acquired via trade last week. "I'm not worried at all about Josh's ability to pick up our system," McDaniels told reporters. "He's already demonstrated an ability to do that. I think he'll […]

Ravens Could Trade Robert Griffin III

The San Francisco 49ers need help at the quarterback position and the Baltimore Ravens could oblige them by shipping out third-string quarterback Robert Griffin III. The 49ers, who are expected to start backup C.J. Beathard this upcoming week, are in the market for a signal caller with starter Jimmy Garoppolo (knee) sidelined for the remainder of the […]

James Conner Slots In As An RB1 Again In Week 4

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner will get ready to make his first career start against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens in Week 4. Baltimore has been stout against the run this season, ranking sixth in DVOA and not allowing an opposing back to top 100 yards against them through three games. Conner might have some […]

Ben Roethlisberger A Low-End QB1 In Week 4

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has played some excellent football over the past two weeks. Over that span, the star signal-caller has passed for 805 yards, six touchdowns, and just one interception. The Steelers will welcome the division-rival Baltimore Ravens to town on Sunday night in Week 4. Baltimore has been inconsistent against the pass […]

Colts Defense Could Be A Sneaky Play In Week 4

In the past, the Indianapolis Colts defense has been a consistent bottom-five unit in the NFL. So far this season, they've actually fielded a much-improved group. They currently rank tied for fourth in the NFL with 10 sacks. Last season, they had 25 on the entire year. The Colts opponent on Sunday is the Houston […]

Rams Defense Might Be Worth Sitting In Week 4

The Los Angeles Rams defense comes into Week 4 with several key players banged up. Starting cornerbacks Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib are both dealing with injuries. Talib will be out this week, while Peters is questionable and has not practiced yet this week. The Minnesota Vikings travel to Los Angeles Thursday night. The strength […]

49ers Work Out Seven Quarterbacks

The San Francisco 49ers worked out seven free-agent quarterbacks Tuesday, including veterans Landry Jones, E.J. Manuel, Kellen Clemens, Tom Savage and T.J. Yates. The two other participants were Matt Simms and Kyle Allen. Whoever the Niners decide to sign will backup second-year quarterback C.J. Beathard as he takes the reins following Jimmy Garoppolo’s season-ending knee […]

Saints Re-Sign Brandon Tate

The New Orleans Saints re-signed wide receiver Brandon Tate on Tuesday, according to a source. He will be at practice on Wednesday. Tate was released by the team before the season started. He had just six catches for 81 yards and a touchdown in 13 games with the Bills in 2017. The Saints will likely […]

Marcus Peters, Mark Barron Not Practicing

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Marcus Peters (calf) and linebacker Mark Barron (ankle) both have not practiced yet this week. Peters is dealing with a calf strain and although he hasn't been ruled out for Thursday, it's highly unlikely he'll play against the Rams. Barron has yet to play this year and is also likely doubtful […]

Dalvin Cook Limited In Practice Tuesday

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) was limited in practice on Tuesday. Cook remains day-to-day and has a chance to play this Thursday against the Rams, but he's looking like a game-time decision as of now after missing the Week 3 game against the Bills. At this point if Cook plays, he'll be a […]

Tom Savage The Favorite To Join 49ers

While the San Francisco 49ers aren't expected to add a veteran quarterback this week to back up C.J. Beathard, sources say that free-agent quarterback Tom Savage is the favorite to sign in San Francisco eventually. Savage played in eight games with the Texans last year after Deshaun Watson's injury and was 125-for-223 (56.1 completion percentage) […]

Raiders Signing Matt McCrane

The Oakland Raiders are signing free-agent kicker Matt McCrane on Tuesday, according to sources. McCrane was an undrafted free agent that didn't make it out of training camp with the Cardinals. With Mike Nugent dealing with a hip injury he suffered in Week 3, expect McCrane to serve as the team's booter until Nugent is […]

Peyton Barber Continues to Underwhelm

Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber has been awful fantasy wise this season. With just 33 yards on eight carries, Barber continues to be an untrustworthy fantasy back. He is best left at the end of your bench and in consideration as a drop if a hot RB pops up on the wire. There is legitimately […]

Chris Godwin Scores Again Monday

Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin has now scored in three straight games and is showing signs of a breakout. Godwin was targeted several times in the end zone but only managed to catch one for a touchdown, which is fine. The fact that he is being targeted there often is a great sign of things […]

O.J. Howard Targeted Heavily Monday

Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard was targeted eight times on Monday and hauled in six for catches. The Steelers defense has been particularly weak since losing Ryan Shazier last season so offenses have been exposing them through the second and third level of their defense since then. Howard totaled 72 yards Monday and has looked […]

Taysom Hill Boosting The Saints Offense

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill has been a dynamic weapon for the Saints offense early in the season, and head coach Sean Payton hopes to use him more in the future. Hill is listed as a quarterback on the Saints depth chart but has running and pass-catching abilities that allow him to take the […]

C.J. Beathard Back Under Center For Niners

San Francisco 49ers second-year quarterback C.J. Beathard will be under center for the foreseeable future starting Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers. With Jimmy Garoppolo (knee) out for the year, Beathard is expected to be the team’s primary signal caller even as the Niners work out several free agent quarterbacks. In 2017, the third-round […]

DeSean Jackson Cools Off Monday

Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson finally came back to Earth Monday night against Pittsburgh. Jackson hauled in three catches on five targets for 37 yards. This was a far cry from his first two games in which he exceeded 100 yards and scored. There should be no real cause for concern here because Jackson is […]

Packers Sign Bashaud Breeland

The Green Bay Packers signed free-agent cornerback Bashaud Breeland on Tuesday. Breeland will replace Davon House (shoulder), who is going on Injured Reserve. The former fourth-round pick of the Redskins will bring a veteran presence to a young secondary. He had 37 tackles and an interception returned for a touchdown in 15 games with Washington […]

Paxton Lynch Works Out For Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars worked out free-agent quarterback Paxton Lynch, running back Jeremy Langford and wide receiver Chad Hansen on Tuesday. Lynch, a failed first-round pick in Denver, has worked out for a handful of teams so far but has yet to latch on with anyone. The Jags already have Blake Bortles and Cody Kessler on […]

Aqib Talib To Have Surgery Thursday

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Aqib Talib (ankle) will undergo surgery on his ankle on Thursday, according to head coach Sean McVay. McVay said there is no timetable for Talib's return until the staff identifies the severity of his injury after surgery. The initial estimate was that Talib might miss somewhere from four to six weeks. […]
