Chris Carson Still Atop Seahawks Depth Chart

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson remains atop the team's running back depth chart heading into Week 3 against the Cowboys. Carson didn't see any action on offense in the second half of Monday night's loss to the Bears as Seattle tried to change things up with rookie Rashaad Penny. Penny wasn't any more effective […]

Temper Expectations For Jared Cook

Oakland Raiders tight end Jared Cook got the fantasy world buzzing with a 180-yard performance on Monday Night Football in Week 1. Gravity took hold in Week 2, however, as he returned to Earth in the form of a four-catch, 49-yard outing. Many fantasy owners who snagged him off the waiver wire prior to Week […]

Andy Levitre Put On IR

The Atlanta Falcons placed offensive guard Andy Levitre (elbow) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. Wes Schweitzer will now take over as the starter at left guard. The Falcons signed guard Zac Kerin in a corresponding move. It's bad news for the team's running game, and they could be without running back Devonta Freeman (knee) for […]

Shaquill Griffin Intercepts Two Passes On Monday Night

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Shaquill Griffin was questionable heading into Monday night's matchup with the Bears, but he's certainly pleased he made it on to the field now. Griffin was one of the stars of the game for Seattle as he snatched a pair of interceptions that helped keep the Seahawks in a game that could […]

Sebastian Janikowski Drills Another Long FG

Seattle Seahawks kicker Sebastian Janikowski posted a perfect game in Week 2, including a bombed 56-yarder. Janikowski also punched through a pair of casual extra points, and the perfect outing marked his first clean game for Seattle. Janikowski also got some surprise time off during the game when he was replaced on a pair of kickoffs […]

Jordan Matthews Working Out With Eagles

Free-agent wide receiver Jordan Matthews (hamstring) worked out for the Philadelphia Eagles, his original team, on Tuesday, according to a league source. Matthews was released with an injury designation six weeks ago by the Patriots. The receiver left the workout hopeful a deal would get done. The Eagles traded Matthews in 2016 to the Bills, […]

Jaron Brown Sees A Little More Action In Week 2

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaron Brown was tagged by coaches for more use after only catching one ball in Week 1, and he did get a couple more chances against the Bears. Unfortunately, he literally only got two more chances. Brown finished with three catches on three targets for just 36 yards as he was […]

Brandon Marshall Works Role As No. 2 WR

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Brandon Marshall seemed comfortable in his role as the team's No. 2 wide receiver on Monday night. Marshall ceded primary duty to Tyler Lockett while Doug Baldwin (knee) remains out, and he worked well as an outlet during Russell Wilson's scramble drills. Marshall is obviously past his prime and won't carry […]

Will Dissly Snags Another TD

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Will Dissly continued to show that he's more than just a blocker by hauling in another touchdown in Week 2. Dissly's score came in the final seconds of the game as Seattle attempted to make a desperate, but ultimately futile, comeback. Dissly snatched three more passes in Monday's game, giving […]

Tyler Lockett Works As Primary Receiver

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett got his first chance to be the team's primary outside target on Monday night, and he did a solid job in the role. Lockett led the team in targets, catches, and yards while hauling in a touchdown in the team's loss to the Bears. Lockett still worked as the […]

Rashaad Penny Struggles In Leading Role

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny surprisingly took the reins on Monday night when the coaching staff decided to stop using Chris Carson for unknown reasons. Unfortunately, Penny continues to struggle to perform in Seattle's backfield. Penny finished Monday night with just 30 yards on 10 carries. The reason head coach Pete Carroll provided […]

Randy Bullock Receives Extension

The Cincinnati Bengals signed kicker Randy Bullock to a two-year contract extension on Tuesday that will run through the 2020 season. Bullock is 4-for-4 in field goal tries (long of 42 yards) through two weeks this year and is perfect on eight extra-point tries as well. In his two years in Cincy so far, he […]

Doug Baldwin Unlikely To Play In Week 3

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) is still a ways away from returning, according to head coach Pete Carroll. During a radio interview on Tuesday, Carroll said that while linebackers Bobby Wagner and KJ Wright were close to coming back and might be able to play against Dallas in Week 3, Baldwin was a […]

Giants Signing Elijhaa Penny

The New York Giants are signing fullback Elijhaa Penny off the Arizona Cardinals practice squad on Tuesday, according to a source. He could take over for Shane Smith, who struggled in the Week 2 loss to the Cowboys. Penny had just 31 carries for 124 yards (4.0 yards per carry) and two touchdowns on the […]

Russell Wilson Sacked Six More Times

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson struggled in the team's Week 2 loss to the Bears and was sacked another six times. Wilson has now been sacked 12 times in the team's first two games, and there's not much relief in sight. Wilson still threw two touchdowns during the Monday night showdown, but he also threw […]

Rams Waive Brandon Allen

The Los Angeles Rams are waiving quarterback Brandon Allen on Tuesday, according to a source. He is a candidate to land on the team's practice squad if he clears waivers, but he was attractive to three teams when the Jaguars let him go last year. Sean Mannion will continue to serve as the main and […]

Bills Sticking With Josh Allen

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott confirmed on Monday that the team will stick with rookie quarterback Josh Allen heading into Week 3 against the Vikings. “I thought he did some good things,” McDermott said of Allen. “He's a young quarterback. Each game, we expect him to get a little bit better and grow. That's […]

Taiwan Jones Did Not Suffer Concussion

Buffalo Bills running back Taiwan Jones (head) did not suffer a concussion in Week 2 against the Chargers when he lost his helmet and then took a hit to the head. Head coach Sean McDermott said Jones was bruised and needed stitches to close a wound on his head. Jones is more of a special […]

Ray-Ray McCloud Expected To Practice This Week

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud (knee) is expected to practice with the team on Wednesday, meaning that he'll have a chance to make his debut against the Vikings in Week 3. McCloud will help with Buffalo's receiving depth, but he shouldn't be owned in any fantasy leagues.

Bills May Split Defensive Play-Calling Duties

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott took over the defensive play calls in the second half of the Week 2 loss to the Chargers, but wouldn't say if the move would be permanent. McDermott said he and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier are "still working through that." Buffalo allowed only 65 total yards (three rushing yards) […]

Jay Ajayi Might Not Be Available In Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Mike Groh indicated that there's a good chance that running back Jay Ajayi (back) won't be available in Week 3 against the Colts. The team added Josh Adams from the practice squad as a precaution on Tuesday. Ajayi was injured on his first carry of Week 2, but he came back […]

Antonio Brown Not Asking For Trade

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said his client is not formally asking for a trade after a Tweet was sent out on Monday from Brown's social media account. "The tweet yesterday was not in reference to anything other than Antonio responding to a person he knows. It was not directed towards […]

Seth DeValve Out Again Tuesday

Cleveland Browns tight end Seth DeValve (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day on Tuesday. DeValve hasn't played at all this year and is buried on the depth chart when he's healthy, so he is well off the fantasy radar. David Njoku continues to serve as the main pass-catching tight end and has low-end […]

Browns Want To Get Duke Johnson More Work

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said the team needs to get running back Duke Johnson more opportunities moving forward. Johnson only has eight carries (20 yards, 2.5 yards per carry) and three catches for 15 yards in two games in 2018. Johnson is good out in space, but with both Carlos Hyde and rookie […]

Jarvis Landry Limited Again Tuesday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) was limited in practice again on Tuesday. There's no indication that Landry's knee injury will keep him out of Thursday's contest against the Jets, so the Browns are likely just resting him on a short week. Landry has a healthy 22 targets (12 catches, 175 yards) through two […]

Joe Haden Expected To Practice This Week

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (hamstring) had a good week of rehab and is expected to practice this week, according to head coach Mike Tomlin. The veteran Haden isn't an IDP force, but a return in Week 3 on Monday night against Tampa Bay would be a good sign for a secondary that has been […]

Brice Butler Returns To Dallas

Free-agent wide receiver Brice Butler Tweeted on Tuesday that he has signed with the Dallas Cowboys. Butler played the last three years with the Cowboys but was released by the Cardinals on Sept. 1. He could be a deep threat for quarterback Dak Prescott. Butler caught 15 passes for 317 yards and three touchdowns in […]

Takkarist McKinley Dealing With Groin Injury

Atlanta Falcons defensive end Takkarist McKinley (groin) injured his groin late in the Week 2 win over the Panthers, according to head coach Dan Quinn. McKinley already has two sacks this year, so losing him for Week 3 against the Saints would be bad news for their pass rush and good news for Saints quarterback […]

Sam Bradford May Have One More Chance

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks has remained non-committal as to who will start the team's third game of the season at quarterback. However, because he hasn't expressed an immediate commitment to rookie quarterback Josh Rosen, it may be that Sam Bradford gets one more chance at the starting role. Whoever starts for the Cardinals […]

Titans Re-Sign Nick Williams

The Tennessee Titans re-signed wide receiver Nick Williams on Tuesday. Receiver Cameron Batson and tight end Anthony Firkser were waived in corresponding moves. Williams is in his fifth NFL season and has 28 catches for 263 yards and two touchdowns in 22 career games. He can be ignored in all fantasy leagues.
