Eagles To Announce Week 2 QB On Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Mike Groh said head coach Doug Pederson will announce the team's starting quarterback for Week 2 against the Buccaneers on Wednesday. Carson Wentz (knee) is getting closer to live action, but the team is expected to hold him out for at least one more week. That means Nick Foles, who looked […]

Matt Prater Misses Two Field Goals Against Jets

Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater finished one of three on field goal attempts in Monday's loss to the New York Jets. He did nail both of his extra-point attempts. He missed a 55-yard attempt early in the second quarter before hitting one from 21 yards out to close the first half. Prater then went on […]

Ben Roethlisberger Has Minor Elbow Issue

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) is dealing with a minor elbow issue and might be limited in practice early in the week. However, the head coach is unconcerned and said the team "oftentimes limit him in the beginning of the week anyway." Big Ben was a turnover machine and […]

Raiders Struggle To Get Pressure On QB

The Oakland Raiders struggled to get pressure on Rams quarterback Jared Goff in their Week 1 loss on Monday night in the absence of All-Pro rusher Khalil Mack, who was traded to the Bears. Linebacker Bruce Irvin had a strip sack of Goff in the first half, but that was the team's only sack in […]

Quincy Enunwa The Top Target Monday Night

New York Jets wide receiver Quincy Enunwa, who missed all of last year with a neck injury, was rookie quarterback Sam Darnold's top target in the Monday night win over the Lions, catching six passes for 63 yards and a touchdown. Enunwa broke out in 2016, catching 58 passes for 857 yards and four touchdowns. […]

Brian Quick Re-Signs With Redskins

The Washington Redskins re-signed wide receiver Brian Quick on Tuesday, according to his agents. Quick managed just six receptions for 76 yards in 11 games with Washington in 2017 and isn't on the fantasy radar. He'll provide depth behind Jamison Crowder, Josh Doctson, Paul Richardson and Maurice Harris with rookies Trey Quinn (ankle) and Cam […]

Patriots Signing Bennie Fowler

The New England Patriots are signing free-agent Bennie Fowler on Tuesday, according to a league source. Fowler played three seasons with the Broncos and had a combined 56 catches for 698 yards and five touchdowns in 45 games. He'll give the Patriots more depth with Julian Edelman out for another three games, but Fowler shouldn't […]

Ian Thomas Ready For Bigger Role

Carolina Panthers head coach Ron Rivera suggested that rookie tight end Ian Thomas is ready to step into a starting role with Greg Olsen (foot) expected to miss extended time. Chris Manhertz suffered a Jones fracture earlier this summer and is more of a blocking tight end anyway. Rivera said Thomas "has been being prepared […]

Patriots Signing Corey Coleman

The New England Patriots are signing free-agent wide receiver Corey Coleman to a one-year deal, according to a source informed of the deal. The former first-round pick was traded from the Browns to the Bills before the season and was then released by Buffalo. The Patriots depth at receiver is thin with Julian Edelman suspended […]

Steve Wilks Critiques David Johnson's Performance

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson played well, according to head coach Steve Wilks, but needed to catch more passes and do better in pass protection. Johnson had an average stat-line that was capped by a touchdown late in the game; clearly, as the focal point of the team's offense, the veteran running back needs […]

LeGarrette Blount a Non-Factor as Lions Starter

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount was held to negative-three yards on four carries and wasn't targeted in the passing game in his debut as the starter out of the Lions backfield. His night was cut short in the second half when he left the game after getting bent backward awkwardly on his fourth carry. […]

Kerryon Johnson Looks Decent in Regular Season Debut

Detroit Lions rookie running back Kerryon Johnson gained 37 yards from scrimmage on eight touches, including 20 yards receiving on three catches (three targets). This contest was completely out of whack in terms of game script, as the Lions trailed 48-17 through three quarters. Unfortunately, this did not help provide much insight as to how […]

Rams Defense Puts Up Great Performance

After a slow first half, the Los Angeles Rams defense showed why they were widely considered to be a top-five fantasy option heading into the season. While they only had one sack, they forced three interceptions, including a pick-six by cornerback Marcus Peters to seal the game. Peters and Aqib Talib are one of the […]

Rams Get Offense All Around

The Los Angeles Rams spread the wealth Monday night in their win over the Oakland Raiders. Quarterback Jared Goff only targeted five total receivers on the night, but they were all close in catches. Running back Todd Gurley had 147 yards of total offense along with a touchdown. Wide receiver Robert Woods struggled to catch balls all […]

Pharoh Cooper Injured Monday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Pharoh Cooper (ankle) left the game early in the fourth quarter in Week 1 against the Raiders on Monday night and is questionable to return. Cooper is the team's main kick returner, so he doesn't have any fantasy value unless you're in a league that counts return yardage. Even then, […]

Marvin Jones Catches Four Passes

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones was the third wheel for targets in Monday night's loss to the Jets. He hauled in four-of-eight targets for 54 yards. Matthew Stafford targeted Golden Tate and Kenny Golladay 27 times combined, so Jones definitely did not see as many chances. However, Jones was being shadowed by the Jets' […]

Kenny Golladay Hits The Century Mark

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay recorded his first career 100-yard receiving game in the 48-17 loss to the Jets on Monday. The second-year receiver hauled in seven passes on 12 targets for 114 yards. While Golladay didn't find the end zone, Matthew Stafford was clearly looking to give him opportunities, including a target in […]

Golden Tate Scores Lions Only Offensive Touchdown

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate was on the receiving end of the team's only offensive touchdown against the Jets on Monday. Tate caught 7-of-15 targets for 79 yards. On the opening drive of the second half, quarterback Matthew Stafford connected with Tate three times, en route to the touchdown from 24 yards out. 10 […]

Matthew Stafford Has Disastrous Opener

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford struggled mightily against the New York Jets on Monday night. He finished 27-of-46 for 286 yards, while throwing just one touchdown and four interceptions. It couldn't have been a worse start to the season for the 10th-year-man, as the Lions lost 48-17 after trailing 17-10 at halftime. Stafford and company […]

Brandon LaFell, DeAndre Washington Inactive

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Brandon LaFell and running back Deandre Washington (knee) are both inactive in Week 1 against the Rams on Monday night. LaFell is a healthy scratch, while Washington was never expected to be active for the season opener. The veteran LaFell recently signed with the Raiders and is currently buried on the […]

Joe Haden Has Mild Hamstring Pull

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (hamstring) was diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain on Monday, according to a source. It's a minor hamstring injury, but the Steelers won't push their veteran cornerback, and he isn't a lock to play in Week 2 against the Chiefs unless he heals right this week. The 29-year-old Haden […]

Ezekiel Ansah Injured Monday Night

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) suffered a shoulder injury on Monday night against the Jets and is questionable to return. Ansah has a history of nagging ailments in his career, so this isn't a good start for the 29-year-old. The Lions are counting on Ansah to help anchor a pass rush in 2018.

Marquise Goodwin Day-To-Day This Week

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (thigh) is dealing with a bruised thigh and will be day-to-day this week. Goodwin could be questionable for Week 2 against the Lions after missing his only target in the Week 1 loss to the Vikings. If Goodwin is able to suit up, […]

Travis Kelce is Quiet in Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was surprisingly quiet in the 38-28 victory over the Chargers on Sunday. Kelce was held to one catch for six yards and did not score a touchdown. He was targeted six times, but was just unable to haul in a majority of the throws. It was a quiet […]

Darius Slay Re-enters Game Against Jets

Updating a previous report, Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay was forced to leave Monday night's game against the Jets after a collision during a tackle. He went to the locker room to undergo testing for a concussion and was cleared to play. He re-entered the game on the very next defensive drive for Detroit.

Corey Coleman To Work Out For Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles are looking to replenish their receiving corps with Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) slated to miss more games and Mack Hollins being on Injured Reserve. Jeffery has not been on the field since undergoing surgery to repair his rotator cuff in February. He recently claimed he is a few weeks away from returning. Hollins is […]

Sammy Watkins Finishes With Three Catches

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins did not have an excellent Chiefs debut, but was still able to get involved on Sunday. Watkins finished with three receptions for 21 yards and he was unable to find the end zone in the 38-28 victory over the Chargers. Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce are the main […]

Tyreek Hill Has Two-Touchdown Game in Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill had an incredible game against the Chargers in Week 1. Hill finished with seven receptions for 169 yards and two touchdowns in the 38-28 win over the Chargers. He also added a 91-yard punt return score and he rushed twice for four yards. The chemistry between Hill and […]

Darius Slay Leaves Game Against Jets

Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay was forced to leave the game in the first quarter against the Jets Monday night, after colliding with Ezekiel Ansah on a tackle. It is unsure of the extent of the injury, but Slay was able to walk off under his own power and was sent directly to the locker […]

Spencer Ware Held to Three Attempts on Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware played in his first game since 2016 on Sunday, but was fairly quiet. Ware had three attempts for 32 yards and had one eight-yard reception. It's obvious that Kareem Hunt is the starting running back in Kansas City. Hunt finished with 16 carries, while Ware had just three. […]
