Carson Wentz Not Ruled Out For Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) "hasn't been ruled out" for Week 2 against the Buccaneers, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.

Steelers Not Considering Trading Le'Veon Bell

The Pittsburgh Steelers are not considering a trade of running back Le'Veon Bell, according to a source. The Steelers plan to wait out his holdout, and some around Bell believe that he'll be back before the end of September.

Ravens Have Packages For Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Ravens have packages in place for quarterback Lamar Jackson in Week 1 against the Bills, according to a source. While Jackson should be active and could see some time on the field in the season opener, it won't be enough to make him worthy of a starting spot in fantasy lineups. Joe Flacco […]

Austin Carr To Work Out Of Slot

New Orleans Saints undrafted wide receiver Austin Carr is expected to work out of the slot in Week 1 against the Buccaneers.

Marlon Mack, Anthony Castonzo Are Game-Time Decisions

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and left tackle Anthony Castonzo (hamstring) will both work out pregame to test their injuries on Sunday, and the team is expected to exercise a high level of caution with them.

DeVante Parker Not Expected To Play

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) is not expected to play in Week 1 against the Titans, according to a source. This doesn't come as a surprise, as Parker was listed as doubtful to play. He won't necessarily be a lock to return in Week 2 either. With Parker out on Sunday, Kenny Stills […]

Will Fuller Will Not Play In Week 1

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Houston's Week 1 meeting with the New England Patriots. With Fuller not playing, expect an increase in wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins's target share as well as an increase in snaps for receiver Bruce Ellington.

Daryl Williams Looks Likely To Play

Carolina Panthers right tackle Daryl Williams (knee) looks good to play in Week 1 against the Cowboys, according to a source. He will see how he feels in warmups to be sure.

Greg Olsen Good To Go

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back), who was listed as questionable for Week 1 against the Cowboys, is good to go, according to a source. His back was "a little sore early in the week but no issues," the source said. While Olsen might be scaled back a little bit in the season opener, […]

Sony Michel Not Expected To Play

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee), who is questionable for Week 1 against the Texans, is not expected to play, according to a source.

T.Y. Hilton, Andrew Luck Connection Looks Strong

After a long absence, the Indianapolis Colts star duo of wide receiver T.Y. Hilton and quarterback Andrew Luck look to pick up where they left off prior to Luck's shoulder saga. They were one of the more lethal duos no matter the defense they were playing. Until a consistent second wide receiver emerges, Hilton should […]

Willie Henry Out A Couple Of Weeks

Baltimore Ravens defensive tackle Willie Henry has been ruled out, as expected, for Week 1. Henry is considered week-to-week as he is still recovering from umbilical hernia surgery in late August.

Xavier Rhodes Will Play On Sunday

Minnesota Vikings All-Pro cornerback Xavier Rhodes (hamstring) will be in the starting lineup for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Keke Coutee Still Dealing With Hamstring Issue

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee (hamstring) still isn't back to full health and could see a reduced role in Sunday's season-opening visit to New England.

Michael Crabtree Compares Favorably To Anquan Boldin

The Baltimore Ravens are hoping wide receiver Michael Crabtree is able to be as productive as Anquan Boldin, who like Crabtree was acquired by the team later in his career. Crabtree and Boldin are very similar in statue and playing style. Both players are physical, possession-oriented receivers and neither possess elite speed or quickness. Crabtree […]

Adrian Peterson Poised To Move Up On Rushing List

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson is looking to have a big day versus the Arizona Cardinals in Week 1. What Peterson really wants to do is get off to a great start so he can vault into the top 10 on the NFL's all-time rushing list. He needs just 37 yards to surpass past […]

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back), who is listed as questionable for Week 1 against the Cowboys, is expected to play, according to a source.

Todd Gurley Embracing Fantasy Football Side Of Life

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley has been the consensus top pick on nearly every fantasy site. His dual-threat ability was put on full display last season, and he should be even better with another year in head coach Sean McVay's offense. Against the Oakland Raiders, he has an extremely high ceiling and he […]

Colts Could Be Conservative With Andrew Luck

During the preseason, Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich wanted to keep recently returned quarterback Andrew Luck healthy. In order to do that, he schemed a lot of short passes, which is not what he has been known for in his career. Presumably, the Colts would need to stretch the field more, especially with Pro […]

Courtland Sutton Earns Teammates' Approval

"He's a dog. He's an animal. Chris Harris Jr. calls him 'Mini Megatron.' He's big, man. He's big. He can go up and get the ball, he has good routes, he's smart. I feel like if we do what we're supposed to, there's no reason why he shouldn't have 10-plus touchdowns," wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders said […]

Royce Freeman a Top-20 Option in Week 1

After finishing 2017 with more rushing attempts than all but seven teams, Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph suggested the Broncos will remain committed to the ground attack heading into their Week 1 matchup against Seattle.

Charles Clay's Week 1 Workload Could Increase

The Buffalo Bills passing attack was already facing an arduous task in Week 1 due to the shortcomings of the team’s revamped offensive line, the limitations of the wide receiving weaponry and the formidable Baltimore defense. Now, inclement weather can be blended into the unwanted mix of obstacles, as rain and sustained wind of at […]
