Derrick Henry Ready To Make An Impact In Week 1

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry spent the majority of his first two seasons in the NFL sitting behind DeMarco Murray, but with Murray no longer with the team, Henry knows it is his time. Henry stated, "I am ready to go out there and make the impact any way I can." Henry is expected […]

Mason Crosby Looking For Bounce-Back Season

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had his worst season of his 11-year career last year. Crosby only attempted 19 field goals and 35 extra points last season. The main reason for his poor season was due to the injury of Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers is back healthy this year, so you can expect Crosby to […]

Keanu Neal Questionable To Return

Atlanta Falcons safety Keanu Neal (knee) injured his left knee in Week 1 on Thursday night and is questionable to return. His injury didn't look good, so we wouldn't expect him to return for the rest of this game. The 23-year-old has been great for the Falcons in his two seasons, racking up 100-plus tackles […]

Will Fuller Could Boom, Could Bust In Week 1

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller didn't play when the Texans met the Patriots last season, but in the five games that Fuller did play with quarterback Deshaun Watson he recorded seven touchdowns on just 13 catches. He didn't score a touchdown or record a 50 yard game without Watson. What Fuller will do in […]

DeAndre Hopkins Looks To Open Season Strong

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins should get his 2018 campaign off to a strong start on Sunday against the New England Patriots. One of the top fantasy options at wide receiver, Hopkins led the NFL in receiving touchdowns last season with 13 despite playing half the season with Tom Savage and T.J. Yates as […]

Lamar Miller Possesses Upside In Week 1

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller was a top-10 running back in 2017 in games where the Texans started quarterback Deshaun Watson. He'll look to continue that success on Sunday as the Texans take on the New England Patriots. In 2017's matchup, Miller carried the ball 14 times, gaining 56 yards and failing to find […]

Geronimo Allison Could Break Out As Sneaky Fantasy Candidate

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison has been trying to prove his worth the last two seasons, but he hasn't had much opportunity. This year, Allison has a clear path to targets with Jordy Nelson gone to the Oakland Raiders. Allison has averaged 13 yards per catch in his first two seasons, and he […]

Nick Boyle Gets Starting Nod At Tight End

Baltimore Ravens tight end Nick Boyle is slated to be the Week 1 starter against the Buffalo Bills. Boyle has worked with the first-team unit on a regular basis since rookie Hayden Hurst suffered a stress fracture in his foot on Aug. 24. While the fourth-year pro has good hands, he is more of a […]

Vic Beasley Evaluated For Head Injury

Atlanta Falcons defensive end Vic Beasley (head) was being evaluated for a head injury in the Week 1 game on Thursday against the Eagles in the second quarter. Beasley led the league in sacks with 15.5 two years ago, but he wasn't as effective in his move to linebacker last year. He's expected to up […]

Seth Roberts Still The No. 3 Receiver

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Seth Roberts remains the team's slot receiver and No. 3 option behind Amari Cooper and Jordy Nelson. “He’s our starting ‘F’ receiver,” head coach Jon Gruden said. “He’s always making plays in practice, and someone we can depend on.” Keon Hatcher, Dwayne Harris and Brandon LaFell round out the group. Roberts […]

Seahawks Won't Force Touches For Rashaad Penny

Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer said that he wants all of his running backs to see work against the Broncos in Week 1, but the team won't force touches for anyone, including rookie Rashaad Penny. "We don't necessarily have, 'OK, gotta get this guy so many carries, gotta get this guy so many touches.' […]

Packers Defense Looking To Prove Themselves

The Green Bay Packers defense is revamped and looking to prove themselves this year. The Packers added Muhammad Wilkerson to the line that already has Mike Daniels. They also added Jaire Alexander to secondary. Tramon Williams and Josh Jackson were also added to the secondary. The group still has a play-maker in Clay Matthews, and […]

Carson Wentz Expected To Miss A Few More Weeks

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) isn't expected to play for a few more weeks. The Eagles are being extra cautious with their franchise QB, and why not, they have a Super Bowl MVP as his backup? Wentz fell in fantasy drafts for obvious reasons, and hopefully you snagged a top backup if you landed […]

Marshawn Lynch Limited Thursday

Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch (groin) was limited in the non-padded practice on Thursday. He has been practicing lately while wearing a resistance band around his quadriceps. Deandre Washington (knee), who recently had a knee procedure, did not practice and isn't expected to play in Week 1 on Monday against the Rams. There isn't […]

Joey Bosa Does Not Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) did not practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Head coach Anthony Lynn hinted that the team may be without their best pass rusher in Week 1 against the Chiefs, and his downgrade in practice mid week definitely isn't a good sign. He's looking questionable, and […]

Robert Woods Looks to Build Upon Strong 2017 Season

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods is looking to build upon a breakout campaign that he had in 2017. He enters his second season as the Rams' top possession receiver, according to Yahoo. However, Woods' fantasy value could be hurt by the addition of Brandin Cooks. It's doubtful that Woods sees as many targets […]

Cooper Kupp Will Be Top Weapon in The Slot

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is coming off a productive rookie season in 2017. Some people may wonder if Kupp has lost fantasy value due to the addition of Brandin Cooks. Kupp should still be the main weapon in the slot, so Cooks should not take away much value from Kupp. The Raiders […]

Brandin Cooks Becomes Main Deep Threat

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks was acquired by the Rams in the offseason. He was brought in to be the main deep threat for quarterback Jared Goff. However, Cooks and Goff have not played together before, so it's unclear what kind of chemistry the two will have right away. The Raiders defense was […]

Todd Gurley Should Play Well Against Oakland

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley will take on the below-average Oakland Raiders defense in Week 1. The Raiders run defense was decent last season, they gave up the 15th most fantasy points, according to Yahoo. Gurley is an elite running back and someone that should start in every fantasy league. This might not […]

Jared Goff Should Be Reliable in Week 1

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff faces off against the Oakland Raiders in Week 1. Goff has new weapon Brandin Cooks along with Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods, and Todd Gurley from last season. The Rams are loaded on offense, so Goff should have no excuse in Week 1. The Raiders defense gave up the seventh […]

Le'Veon Bell Might Return Saturday

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport stated on Thursday that Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell could report to the team on Saturday. Rapoport said, "From the best I can tell, from people involved in this, their estimate is, their guess is that Bell will show up on Saturday." If Bell does report on Saturday, he would […]

Riley McCarron Joins Active Roster

New England Patriots wide receiver Riley McCarron was placed on the active roster from the practice squad on Thursday, according to a source. In a corresponding move, second-round cornerback Duke Dawson (hamstring) was placed on Injured Reserve. McCarron could see some playing time right away with Julian Edelman suspended to start the year and the […]

Andrus Peat Sits Out Practice Wednesday, Limited Thursday

New Orleans Saints left guard Andrus Peat (quadriceps) was out of practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday. Peat's injury doesn't seem too concerning, but his status for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is still unknown. Full participation in Friday's practice would likely indicate he's a go for Sunday. If Peat does […]

Dak Prescott Not Worried About Next Deal

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott said he's not worrying about a potential payday if he has a big year in 2018. He's entering his third season and is set to make $630,000, which makes him one of the lowest paid starting quarterbacks in the league. The Cowboys cannot approach Prescott about a contract extension until […]

Browns Claim Anthony Zettel Off Waivers

The Cleveland Browns claimed defensive end Anthony Zettel off waivers from the Lions on Thursday, according to a source. Zettel was a surprising cut by the Lions after he had 6.5 sacks and a fumble recovery in a full season with Detroit in 2017. However, he wasn't a good scheme fit for the new defense.

Joey Bosa May Not Play In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn hinted that defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) might not play in Week 1 against the Chiefs. "It’s possible that he might not be with us. ... Foot injuries, they take on all the body weight. That can be tricky," Lynn said. Bosa is an elite IDP player, but […]

Patriots Sign Stephen Anderson

The New England Patriots signed free-agent tight end Stephen Anderson on Thursday. Anderson was recently cut by the Texans last weekend, and the Patriots curiously play Houston in Week 1. New England already has Rob Gronkowski, Dwayne Allen and Jacob Hollister on roster, so Anderson is unlikely to see much playing time unless an injury […]

Jermaine Kearse Takes Part In Positional Drills

New York Jets wide receiver Jermaine Kearse (abdomen), who has been sidelined the last two weeks with an abdominal injury, took part in positional drills in practice on Thursday. It's a good sign for Kearse, but he was officially listed as did not practice. It's unlikely that he'll be able to play in Week 1 […]

Mack Hollins Sent to Injured Reserve

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins was placed on injured reserve due to a groin injury. Hollins was slated for a much bigger role in his sophomore season, but he needs more time to recover from sports hernia surgery. He's a candidate to return in the second half of the season, but he certainly doesn't […]

Ty Montgomery Has Surprising Upside Despite Being Second Back

Green Bay Packers running back Ty Montgomery figures to be the second running back at least until Aaron Jones returns from suspension. Montgomery is a great receiving back, and will see a lot of third down looks. However, he has done well against the Chicago Bears in the past while running the ball as well. […]
