Phillip Dorsett No More Than A WR5 Versus Lions

New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett has made a nice impression with the 2018 Patriots through the first two games. Not much was expected of Dorsett coming into the season but he has 12 catches, 110 yards and one touchdown through the first two weeks. He even has popped up on the fantasy radar […]

Seahawks Offense Remains Unbalanced

The Seattle Seahawks are winless after two weeks and have thrown the ball 69 times compared to just 38 rushing attempts, a total that ranks 29th in the league. Running backs Chris Carson and rookie Rashaad Penny have combined for just 33 carries. Head coach Pete Carroll blamed himself and his impatience. Seattle is averaging […]

Chris Hogan Has WR2 Appeal For Week 3

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan is coming off a two-touchdown performance in Week 2 but caught only three passes in the game against the Jaguars. This week the Patriots will go up against a beatable Lions secondary but is a unit, through two games, that is tied for second fewest receptions allowed to […]

Rob Gronkowski Ready To Bounce Back Against Detroit

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski will once again rank as a TE1 when the Patriots take on the Lions Sunday night. The Lions defense has struggled thus far this season and Gronkowski will be happy to face any defense that isn't the Jaguars. Gronk was held to only two catches for 15 yards […]

Larry Fitzgerald Returns To Practice

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) was working in practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. Fitzgerald will play in Week 3 against the Bears. However, he'll need to be downgraded to more of a WR3 with the offense struggling under quarterback Sam Bradford through two weeks. Chicago's defense is clearly on […]

Anthony Castonzo Still Out

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Castonzo suffered a setback last week and looks unlikely to make his season debut in Week 3 against the Eagles. Indy's offense is pretty beat up right now, and it's not good news that quarterback Andrew Luck probably won't […]

Case Keenum Back On The Field

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum (knee) is back on the practice field on Thursday after being held out as a precaution on Wednesday with knee soreness. Keenum should be fine to play in Week 3, but he'll be facing a tough Baltimore defense on the road. The veteran led a nice fourth-quarter comeback to beat […]

Rex Burkhead Should See Increase In Touches Against Lions

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead will go up against a Lions defense that, through two games, has allowed the fifth most fantasy points to opposing runners. Burkhead is off to a quiet start this season and a concussion has limited his involvement right out of the gate. The Patriots offense has an opportunity […]

LeSean McCoy's Ex-Girlfriend Still Pursuing Case

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy's ex-girlfriend Delicia Cordon is certain that McCoy was involved in a July 10 home invasion in which an unknown assailant injured her. She will offer a $20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the intruder at a home that was owned by McCoy outside of Atlanta. Sources […]

Jack Doyle Doesn't Practice Thursday

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle (hip) remained sidelined on Thursday due to a hip injury he suffered in Week 2. Despite that Doyle dominating snap counts for the Colts tight end group is good for fantasy purposes, the wear and tear of constantly being on the field is putting his game-time status into question. […]

Julio Jones Says He's Good

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (calf), who missed practice on Wednesday, said he's good and that he was out for precautionary reasons. That's what we were expecting. Jones said he felt some tightness in the Week 2 loss to the Panthers, but he will be out there in Week 3 against the Saints in […]

T.Y. Hilton Absent From Practice on Thursday

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (quad) was absent from the team's Thursday practice while nursing a quad injury. Hilton draws a plus matchup in Week 3 against a Philadelphia Eagles squad that allowed big weeks for Julio Jones and Mike Evans, so his fantasy owners should be careful to monitor the wideout's status leading […]

James White Has Fringe Fantasy Value For Week 3

New England Patriots running back James White continues to produce when given opportunities heading into Week 3. White added seven receptions and 84 yards from scrimmage last week and the veteran has the trust of quarterback Tom Brady. Rookie running back Sony Michel and Rex Burkhead could eventually eclipse White's current workload but the Patriots […]

Vita Vea Back On The Practice Field

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie defensive tackle Vita Vea (calf), the team's first-round pick, is back in pads at practice on Thursday for the first time since his injury. Vea is unlikely to return in Week 3 on Monday against the Steelers, but it's a good sign that he's progressing toward making his NFL debut. His […]

Sony Michel Risky Against Lions

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel is hoping to get more touches in Week 3 against the Lions. Michel made his NFL debut last week and carried the ball 10 times for 34 yards. The talented rookie has an excellent matchup in Week 3 against a Lions defense that, through two games, has allowed […]

Marlon Mack Misses Consecutive Practices

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring, foot) missed the team's Thursday practice while dealing with various injury issues. This was the news that fantasy owners dreaded to hear, as it likely means he will be missing the Colts' Week 3 tilt with the Philadelphia Eagles barring a miraculous full Friday practice. Fellow backfield-mate Jordan […]

No Practice For Olivier Vernon, Eli Apple

New York Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon (ankle) and cornerback Eli Apple (groin) were not seen at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. It's looking like New York will be without both players in Week 3 against the Texans. Vernon has yet to play this year and might be questionable in Week 4 […]

Dolphins Non-Committal On DeVante Parker

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase remains non-committal on whether wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) will make his season debut against the Raiders in Week 3. Parker has been practicing in full this week and looks more comfortable catching passes, but Miami may play it cautious and hold him out another week. Even if he […]

Tom Brady Has Fantastic Matchup Against Lions

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will have an excellent matchup in Detroit against the Lions Sunday night. Brady is off to a solid, if unspectacular, start to his season with 511 yards, five touchdowns and one interception through two games. Brady will go up against a Lions defense that was shredded by Jets quarterback […]

C.J. Mosley Practices On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens linebacker C.J. Mosley (knee) practiced on Thursday despite suffering a bone bruise on his knee last week. He was favoring his leg but took part in individual drills. It remains to be seen if Mosley will actually play in Week 3 against the Broncos, but this is a good sign that he's progressing […]

Alex Collins Returns To Practice

Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins (illness) was seen running routes and catching passes before individual drills on Thursday, suggesting he'll be fine for Week 3 against the Broncos. Collins missed practice on Wednesday. Collins should be fine for this weekend and will be a low-end RB2/high-end RB3. It's a bit concerning that he's losing […]

Antonio Brown Apologizes For Outburst

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown apologized on Thursday for his social media outburst this week and denied that he wanted to be traded. "Obviously I don’t want to be traded. I’m still grateful to put on my uniform, grateful to be part of this organization. I don’t take it for granted. Obviously it was […]

Jay Ajayi, Darren Sproles Miss Another Practice

Philadelphia Eagles running backs Jay Ajayi (back) and Darren Sproles (hamstring) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. That usually means a player won't play if they miss the first two days of practice. Sproles is more unlikely to play than Ajayi, but Ajayi is now looking to be on the wrong […]

Eric Berry Not Practicing Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry (heel) is out of practice again on Thursday. Berry hasn't practiced since early August and is highly unlikely to make his season debut in Week 3 against the 49ers. An already weak secondary should continue to struggle this weekend. That's great news for San Fran quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and […]

Jermaine Gresham Not Worth Starting In Week 3

Arizona Cardinals tight end Jermaine Gresham (achilles) may finally play after sitting out for the start of the 2018 season following a season-ending injury sustained in 2017. Gresham has logged in full practices this week and looks to feature as the team's backup tight end to Ricky Seals-Jones. Therefore, Gresham should not be started by […]

Sean Lee Returns To Practice

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee (hamstring) is doing individual drills on Thursday after missing practice on Wednesday. It's a good sign that the oft-injured linebacker will have a chance to play in Week 3 against the Seahawks. When he's playing, Lee is usually a strong IPD option for owners.

Darius Slay Out Of Practice Again Thursday

Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay (concussion) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Slay must get in at least a limited practice on Friday to have a chance of playing on Sunday night against the Patriots, but it's not looking good right now. Slay is the team's best defensive back, so […]

Ricky Seals-Jones A Low-End TE2 In Week 3

Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones faces a tough Bears defense in Week 3. Although Seals-Jones has been the most consistent player on the Cardinals offense so far this season, the team's poor form still means that he has a low chance of producing in this week's game. Therefore, Seals-Jones should be left on the […]

Jadeveon Clowney Says He'll Play This Weekend

Houston Texans defensive end Jadeveon Clowney (back) said he will play in Week 3 against the Giants. We wouldn't hold the oft-injured pass rusher at his word just yet, but he does have an excellent matchup against an ineffective New York offensive line on Sunday if he plays. Clowney should be in IDP lineups if […]

Chad Williams Should Not Be Started In Week 3

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Chad Williams faces a very tough game against the Bears this weekend. The second-year wide receiver has yet to record a catch through two games despite seeing targets in both outings. Therefore, Williams has minimal fantasy value going into Week 3 due to his performance and that of the team's offense.
