David Johnson Adds Weight Ahead of 2018

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson has added weight ahead of the 2018 season. After going on a vegan diet in 2017, Johnson has bulked up to 224 pounds to enter the season. Playing for a contract, it is no surprise that Johnson wants to be able to absorb more hits in a very important […]

Raiders Sign Wide Receiver Brandon LaFell

The Oakland Raiders have signed wide receiver Brandon LaFell to a one-year deal, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. LaFell was cut in early August by the Bengals, after two seasons with the team, where he played every game. The Raiders had a need at wide receiver after they cut Martavis Bryant on […]

Le'Veon Bell Officially Misses Monday's Practice

Updating a previous report, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell missed practice on Monday as his team ramps up to face the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Bell missed all of the preseason to show his displeasure after the Steelers franchised tagged him for the second consecutive offseason instead of agreeing upon a long-term contract. General […]

Josh Gordon Practicing Monday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon (hamstring) is back practicing with the team on Monday. Gordon tweaked his hamstring during a conditioning drill a little over a week ago, forcing him to observe from the sidelines ever since being activated from the non-football injury list. Head coach Hue Jackson already told the media that Gordon […]

Bills Name Nathan Peterman Starting Quarterback

Buffalo Bills quarterback Nathan Peterman will open the regular season as the starting quarterback for Week 1. Peterman clearly outperformed rookie Josh Allen and former Bill AJ McCarron. Peterman was very efficient this preseason, going 33 of 41 for 431 yards to go along with three passing touchdowns and one interception. Allen, on the other hand, seemed […]

Le'Veon Bell Not Yet Seen In Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell has not been spotted at the team's practice facility as of Monday morning. Bell has missed the entire preseason to make a statement after he was unable to procure a long-term contract with the Steelers this offseason. A Steelers teammate told NFL's Aditi Kinkhabwala that there has been "no […]

Tyler Eifert, Tyler Kroft Are Top Two TEs In Cincy

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert sits atop the depth chart, while Tyler Kroft, C.J. Uzomah and Mason Schreck also made the initial 53-man roster. The team parted with H-Backs Ryan Hewitt and Jordan Franks to keep Uzomah and Schreck. Eifert is the fantasy ticket here, as he can be a beast in the red […]

Joe Mixon, Giovani Bernard Head Up Queen City RBs

Cincinnati Bengals running backs Joe Mixon and Giovani Bernard sit atop the depth chart on the 53-man roster heading into the regular season. They'll do plenty of heavy lifting, as the team opted to keep just four tailbacks. Mark Walton and Tra Carson fill out the group, with H-Backs Ryan Hewitt and Jordan Franks, as […]

A.J. Green Heads Up Deep Cincinnati Receiver Group

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is the obvious and undisputed No. 1 receiver in the Queen City. However, he has plenty of players under him on the depth chart jockeying for position. WRs Tyler Boyd, John Ross, Josh Malone, Alex Erickson, Auden Tate and Cody Core all won jobs after the team announced its […]

Jason Myers Has Job With Jets For Now

New York Jets placekicker Jason Myers edged out Taylor Bertolet for the starting job in the preseason, but it's uncertain if he'll open the season in that capacity. The team is working out former Dallas Cowboys kicker Dan Bailey on Monday, and it's hard to envision the club retaining a middle of the road kicker […]

Chris Herndon, Jordan Leggett Head Up Tight Ends

The New York Jets elected to keep tight ends Chris Herndon, Jordan Leggett, Eric Tomlinson and Neal Sterling after announcing their 53-man roster over the weekend. The surprise was not that they retained four tight ends, but that Clive Walford was cut loose. He ended up being productive in training camp and the preseason, so […]

Jonathan Williams Joins Practice Squad

New Orleans Saints running back Jonathan Williams agreed to join the team's practice squad after not making the 53-man roster. Williams just hasn't been able to make an impact as a depth option for New Orleans, but they'll keep him around just in case. Mike Gillislee will be a short-yardage/goal-line option behind Alvin Kamara to […]

Robby Anderson, Jermaine Kearse Head Up Wideout Corps

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson is the undisputed No. 1 receiver for the Jets, while 2017 breakout Jermaine Kearse is expected to start opposite Anderson when healthy. Quincy Enunwa and Terrelle Pryor will work as the No. 3 and 4 receivers, while Charone Peake and Andre Roberts also made the team. The team […]

Colts Visit With Fitzgerald Toussaint

The Indianapolis Colts hosted free-agent running back Fitzgerald Toussaint for a visit on Sunday, according to a source. Marlon Mack is highly questionable for Week 1 for the Colts, so Indy will kick the tires for running back depth. With Robert Turbin suspended to start the season, Jordan Wilkins and Christine Michael could share the […]

Isaiah Crowell, Bilal Powell Head Up Backfield

New York Jets running backs Isaiah Crowell and Bilal Powell will be the top two ball carriers for the team, with Elijah McGuire, Trenton Cannon and Lawrence Thomas fighting for scraps. The team chopped down its roster to 53 over the weekend, paring Thomas Rawls, Charcandrick West, George Atkinson and Dimitri Flowers, the latter being […]

Robert Griffin III To Start As Joe Flacco's Backup

The Baltimore Ravens plan is to have quarterback Robert Griffin III as the No. 2 behind Joe Flacco to enter the regular season. That means that rookie Lamar Jackson will get to sit and learn as the No. 3 QB. Jackson flashed his playmaking ability in the preseason and in training camp, but he still […]

Jets To Work Out Dan Bailey On Monday

The New York Jets will work out free-agent placekicker Dan Bailey (Cowboys) on Monday. In one of the bigger surprises among the weekend cuts, Bailey was waived in favor of Brett Maher as the team trimmed its roster down to 53 players. He leaves as the franchise leader in field goals, and second-most accurate kicker […]

Bears Expect Khalil Mack To Play In Week 1

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy is hoping that newly-acquired defensive end Khalil Mack will be ready to play in Week 1 on Sunday night against the division-rival Packers. Mack was traded by the Raiders and makes Chicago's defense a scary sleeper pick in fantasy leagues. He has proven to be one of the league's […]

Adam Shaheen To Be Put On IR

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace said tight end Adam Shaheen (ankle, foot) will be put on Injured Reserve. Shaheen had a promising end to his rookie season, but he won't be able to return until after Week 8 this year. You can leave him on the waiver wire. Trey Burton should be the team's […]

Sony Michel Takes Part In Practice Sunday

New England Patriots rookie running back Sony Michel (knee) took part in positional drills on Sunday. While Michel could still be inactive for Week 1 of the regular season, it's a good sign that he's back at practice. Michel might have the most upside of anyone in New England's backfield, but he's currently behind Rex […]

Mike Gesicki Ready For Starter's Role

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said on Sunday that rookie tight end Mike Gesicki is ready for a starter's role on offense. Gesicki should have a huge role in his rookie season, especially with receiver DeVante Adams injured. The long-term upside is huge, but Gesicki could also be very touchdown-dependent in 2018. Consider him […]

Carson Wentz Not Cleared For Contact

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) has yet to be cleared for contact. While not official yet, Wentz is fully expected to be ruled out for the season opener on Thursday against the Falcons. He could also miss Week 2. Wentz's stock as a QB1 has fallen due to his slow rehab from knee surgery, […]

Jay Ajayi To Be Ready For Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said running back Jay Ajayi will practice this week and will be ready for the season opener against the Falcons on Thursday. Ajayi should be good to go but may be eased into Week 1. Still, he should be used as an RB2 in the season opener in all […]

Tanner Gentry Joining Practice Squad

Chicago Bears wide receiver Tanner Gentry is joining the practice squad after he didn't make the 53-man roster. In four games with the Bears in his rookie season, Gentry had only three receptions for 35 yards. He can obviously be ignored by fantasy owners.

Roc Thomas To Open Season As Fourth RB

Minnesota Vikings rookie running back Roc Thomas has made the team's final 53-man roster as the fourth running back on the depth chart. He'll be behind Dalvin Cook, Latavius Murray and fellow rookie Michael Boone. Thomas will be fighting for scraps and special teams work, so he's not an option in redraft leagues unless injuries […]

Brandon Marshall Makes Final Roster

Seattle Seahawks veteran wide receiver Brandon Marshall made the team's final 53-man roster. Marshall is a shell of his former self but has opportunity to carve out a role behind Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett. Marshall is, at best, a late-round flier with hopes that he becomes a red-zone target for quarterback Brandon Marshall. There […]

Elijhaa Penny Among Final Cuts

Arizona Cardinals running back Elijhaa Penny was among the team's final roster cuts on Saturday. Behind bell-cow back David Johnson, the Cardinals will go with rookie Chase Edmunds and TJ Logan. Penny is a candidate to join the practice squad.

Ed Dickson Put On NFI, Austin Davis To IR

The Seattle Seahawks placed tight end Ed Dickson (quadriceps) on the reserve/Non-Football Injury list on Saturday and also placed quarterback Austin Davis on Injured Reserve, according to a source. Dickson will now miss the first six games of the season. Nick Vannett will be the main pass-catching tight end but will share time with rookie […]

Bills Waive Nick O'Leary

The Buffalo Bills waived tight end Nick O'Leary on Saturday. The team will go with Charles Clay, Jason Croom, Logan Thomas and Khari Lee at the position. O'Leary was the top backup to Clay last year and had a career-high 22 catches.

Jermaine Gresham Activated From PUP List

Arizona Cardinals tight end Jermaine Gresham (Achilles) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list on Saturday. Gresham can now return to practice and is expected to be back within six games. It's unlikely that Gresham will be ready for the season opener, and Ricky Seals-Jones is the tight end to target anyway in […]
