Marcus Cannon Ruled Out

New England Patriots right tackle Marcus Cannon (calf) and defensive back Keion Crossen (hamstring) have both been ruled out for Week 2 against the Jaguars. It's bad news for a Patriots team already dealing with injuries to running backs Rex Burkhead (concussion) and Sony Michel (knee). The Patriots figure to do a lot of short […]

Marlon Mack Officially Active

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) is officially active this week against the Washington Redskins. The second-year back will give the offense a much-needed boost with his big-play ability. He's good at catching passes out of the backfield, which gives him some PPR value. However, this backfield should be avoided until the touch distribution […]

Shaquill Griffin Will Play Monday

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Shaquill Griffin (thigh) will play on Monday against the Bears, according to head coach Pete Carroll. That's good news with Tre Flowers (hamstring) already ruled out. Still, Seattle's secondary is weakened despite safety Earl Thomas' presence. It's good news for Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky and his receiving weapons on Monday night.

Christian Kirk, Chad Williams To Be More Involved

Arizona Cardinals wide receivers Christian Kirk and Chad Williams figure to get more opportunities to produce in Week 2 against the Rams after they both had quiet debuts in Week 1. The Cardinals could be playing a lot of catch-up against Los Angeles, too, forcing the Cardinals to throw the ball often. Still, both Kirk […]

Browns Not Certain Dez Bryant Wants To Play

The Cleveland Browns said free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant's name hasn't "come up around the building lately," and the team is not sure that he wants to play football, according to a team source. Bryant's name will surely come up again now that the team is trading or releasing receiver Josh Gordon, but Bryant still […]

Browns Hope To Trade Josh Gordon

The Cleveland Browns are hoping to trade embattled wide receiver Josh Gordon (hamstring) after he showed up late to the facility on Saturday and was "not himself," according to league sources. If they can't trade him they will release him Monday morning. Gordon also complained of a pulled hamstring on Saturday. There were concerns that […]

DeVante Parker Inactive For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) is inactive for their Week 2 game against the Jets. Parker had practiced all week but still apparently isn't well enough to play in an actual game. This boosts Kenny Stills' value as the Dolphins number one receiver, and gives a slight bump in value to Danny Amendola […]

Devonta Freeman Expected To Miss 2-3 Weeks

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman (knee) is expected to be out two to three weeks with his knee contusion, according to a source. Freeman is already out for Week 2 against the Panthers, and it looks like he could miss several more games. It's a big hit to Freeman owners and the Falcons. Tevin […]

Leonard Fournette Unlikely To Play Against Patriots

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) continues to look unlikely to play in Sunday's meeting with the New England Patriots. Fournette will test his hamstring one more time before the game, but after feeling tightness in it all week during workouts, any discomfort will lead to Fournette sitting out. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere […]

Jake Elliott Is A Viable Option For Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott was not very busy in Week 1. That could change with a succulent matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2. New Orleans put up 40 points and 475 yards of total offense against Tampa Bay last week. Saints kicker Will Lutz, who is excellent, tallied six of those […]

Will Fuller Expected To Make Season Debut

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) is expected to be ready for the Week 2 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Fuller sat out during the team's Week 1 contest against the Pats, but after practicing in a limited capacity during the week, all signs are indicating that he will be good to go. If […]

DeAndre Hopkins Should Be Good To Go On Sunday

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (foot) is expected to play on Sunday against the Titans. Hopkins was a limited participant in practice all week; however, this move was mostly a precautionary measure as he was never in real jeopardy of missing time. Hopkins was targeted 11 times in Week 1 against the Patriots, racking […]

Davante Adams Likely To Play Against Vikings

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) is expected to suit up on Sunday against the Vikings. Adams suffered a shoulder injury during the team's Week 1 meeting against the Bears but still managed to finish the game with 88 yards and a touchdown off of five receptions. Though he didn't practice on Wednesday, […]

Aaron Rodgers Expected To Play

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) is expected to play on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. Rodgers suffered a sprained knee against the Bears last Sunday, and despite being carted off the field early in the contest, he returned to lead the comeback win, throwing for 286 yards and three touchdowns on the night. […]

Josh Doctson Expected To See More Targets In Week 2

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Doctson could see more targets on Sunday, especially if fellow receiver Paul Richardson (shoulder) is unable to go against the Indianapolis Colts. Doctson had just one catch on three targets for 11 yards last week despite playing 70 of the 79 offensive snaps. However, with Richardson dealing with the injury, […]

Jordan Reed Is A Must-Start In Week 2

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed is one of the best tight ends in the game when he is healthy. But staying healthy has been a problem for the 28-year-old throughout his career. The sixth-year pro has appeared in just 53 of 81 career games, which includes missing 14 games over the last two seasons. Reed […]

Browns Will Release Josh Gordon Monday

The Cleveland Browns will release wide receiver Josh Gordon on Monday after six tumultuous years with the team. Gordon, who didn't play in 2015 or 2016 while dealing with substance abuse issues, caught a 17-yard touchdown in Cleveland's season-opener, but had already been ruled out for Week 2 with a hamstring issue. While Gordon's future […]

Charles Clay Will Look To Contribute More In Week 2

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay will look to be more involved this Sunday against the Chargers. Clay saw only two targets last week, and wasn’t able to handle either of them. The optimistic side for Clay is the Bills have a new quarterback starting this week. If him and Josh Allen find chemistry, then […]

Kelvin Benjamin May Have Forgettable Performance Again

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin may continue to struggle this Sunday against the Chargers. Last week, Benjamin had one catch on seven targets against the Ravens. Even though the Chargers defense can struggle at times, Benjamin will most likely have Casey Hayward covering him for most of the day. Hayward is definitely an upper […]

LeSean McCoy Should Be A Solid RB2 Sunday

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy should see more usage in the Bills Week 2 game against the Chargers. McCoy only saw seven carriers for 22 yards last week against the Ravens. He comes in against a suspect Chargers defense, that is missing star pass rusher Joey Bosa. With a rookie making his first career […]

Jamison Crowder Looks For Better Production

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder heads into the Week 2 game against the Indianapolis Colts looking for more production. He posted just three grabs for 32 yards on four targets in the Week 1 opener against Arizona. Crowder will do his usual work in the slot during the home opener, and he could see […]

Josh Allen Looks To Make First Start Count

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen will make his first career start Sunday against the Chargers. The rookie will face a secondary that got torched last week by Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Even though it’s Allen’s first start, he did play last week going 6-for-15 against the Ravens. It’s also worth noting the Chargers will be […]

Alex Smith Looks To Remain Mistake-Free In Week 2

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith is ready for his home debut in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. He was efficient in the opener at Arizona, completing 21-of-30 passes for 255 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He could potentially be without WR Paul Richardson (shoulder), but he still has plenty of weapons at his […]

Adrian Peterson Looks To Keep It Rolling

Washington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson will make his home debut in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. He just missed hitting the century mark in rushing yardage last week in Arizona, galloping 96 yards on 26 carries while finding the end zone once. He also added two grabs for 70 yards. It wasn't all […]

Sony Michel Has A Chance To Play

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) made a lot of progress this week to the point where he has given himself a chance to be active for his NFL debut in Week 2 against the Jaguars, according to a source. That doesn't mean that he'll be active, though, and we'll have to […]

Rex Burkhead Travels With Team

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead (concussion) made progress this week and traveled with the team to Jacksonville for Week 2, according to a source. All signs point to Burkhead being active, but James White could see most of the work in this one. Rookie Sony Michel (knee) is also trending toward playing, but […]

Chris Thompson Bumps Up To RB2/3 For Week 2

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson is primed for a big game versus the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Thompson was fantastic in Week 1, as he compiled 128 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown against Arizona. He totaled 65 yards on five carries as he broke four of the runs for 10 or more yards. […]

Brandon Wilds Promoted To Active Roster

The Jacksonville Jaguars promoted running back Brandon Wilds from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday and cut wide receiver Rashad Greene in a corresponding move. This could be a sign that Leonard Fournette (hamstring) will not play in Week 2 against the Patriots. If Fournette sits, T.J. Yeldon will be the main […]

Bennie Fowler Cut By Patriots

The New England Patriots cut wide receiver Bennie Fowler on Saturday, according to a source. Offensive tackle Cole Croston was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move. This is a sign that right tackle Marcus Cannon will not be able to play in Week 2 against the Jaguars.

Bobby Wagner Ruled Out

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner (groin) has been ruled out for Week 2 against the Bears on Monday night. Linebacker K.J. Wright and wide receiver Doug Baldwin are also out, and cornerback Tre Flowers is doubtful. Seattle's defense is very vulnerable right now in the middle and in the secondary, which is great news for […]
