Full Steam Ahead For Tyrod Taylor As No. 1 QB

Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor appears to be hurtling toward making the start in the regular season opener, and he might be under center for the long haul. "Why? I will tell you the reason why: We are learning a new system, and I think Tyrod needs every rep he can get with the ones." […]

Baker Mayfield Unlikely For First-Team Reps

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield has played well during the preseason, but head coach Hue Jackson doesn't appear closer to giving the rookie first-team reps in a game before the preseason ends. "No. No. No, no, no," the coach said Monday. "Everybody is asking me that a ton of times. Why? I will tell you […]

Zane Gonzalez Might Hang Onto His Job

Cleveland Browns placekicker Zane Gonzalez and punter Britton Colquitt might be on the verge of keeping their jobs heading into the regular season. The team brought in placekicker Ross Martin and punter Justin Vogel to challenge, but no one has really grabbed the bull by the horns in training camp or the preseason. "I don't […]

Nyheim Hines Stock Continues To Fall

Through two preseason games, Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines continues to be his own worst enemy. He has fumbled four times in two games. Although the team has yet to establish their running back rotation, the fourth-round pick is not doing himself any favors. He continues to be outperformed by veteran Robert Turbin, and […]

Carries For Derrick Henry, Dion Lewis Will Vary

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that the division of carries for running backs Derrick Henry and Dion Lewis will vary from week to week. That's certainly not what fantasy owners want to hear, but it likely will come down to matchups and a hot hand. Vrabel said he would like to see […]

Titans Dealing With Several Injuries On D

The Tennessee Titans placed cornerback Kalan Reed (foot) on the Reserve/Injured list Monday due to a small broken bone in his foot, a league source said. The team also placed cornerback Tye Smith (upper body) on the IR due to what is believed to be an arm or shoulder injury. It has been a rough […]

Josh Ferguson Suffers Groin Injury

Indianapolis running back Josh Ferguson (groin) left the team's second preseason game with a groin injury and did not return. Ferguson received two carries and caught a pass from quarterback Andrew Luck before exiting the contest. Although he did take some work from starter Christine Michael, it was clear early in the contest that Ferguson's […]

Isaiah Crowell Takes Part In Full Practice

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (concussion) was able to take part in a full practice session on Monday. He shed his red non-contact jersey over the weekend and worked in individual drills, but this was his first time back in the team portion of practice since sustaining a concussion in the first preseason […]

Ryan Grant Fails to Make an Impact

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant failed to haul in his two targets in Week 2 of the preseason against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday. Despite starter T.Y. Hilton sitting out the contest with an injured shoulder, Grant couldn't make any sort of noticeable impact. For fantasy purposes, Grant can be safely avoided until either […]

Source: Two Teams Interested In Teddy Bridgewater

New York Jets quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is apparently on the trade block, and general manager Mike Maccagnan and head coach Todd Bowles haven't refuted that. In fact, a source confirmed that at least two teams expressed interest in trading for Bridgewater, and the club has made it known they'll part with him for the right […]

Trumaine Johnson Among Jets Getting Healthier

New York Jets cornerback Trumaine Johnson (hamstring) was able to take part in team drills on Monday after missing the past two days due to a hamstring injury. Starting offensive tackle Kelvin Beachum (foot) and offensive guard Brian Winters (abdomen) were also able to participate in team drills. It's a good sign that the Jets […]

Jack Doyle Continues to be a Safety Blanket

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle caught two passes for 32 yards in the team's preseason matchup with the Baltimore Ravens on Monday. Doyle was the only reliable target for quarterback Andrew Luck, as T.Y. Hilton missed the game with a shoulder issue. Fantasy owners shouldn't be too afraid of recent free agent acquisition Eric […]

Christine Michael Gets the Start vs. Ravens

Indianapolis Colts running back Christine Michael operated as the team's starting running back against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, with the former Seattle Seahawk rushing six times for 12 yards across the first-team offense's five possessions. While Josh Ferguson stole two carries from him, Michael received work as the unquestioned bell-cow and could be the […]

Andrew Luck Looks Shaky Against Baltimore

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck completed six of his 13 pass attempts for 50 yards and an interception against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2 of the preseason. Luck continued his trend of throwing the ball short from the Colts first preseason game and added a costly interception in the red zone in what was […]

Golden Tate Not Included In Two-Wide Receiver Formations

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate was not a part of two-receiver formations in Friday's game against the New York Giants. Instead, playing opposite of Marvin Jones Jr. was second-year receiver Kenny Golladay. The Lions have reportedly been working on these offensive sets more in the preseason. When the starters were in on Friday, two […]

Kyle Williams Works On Side With Trainer

Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams (knee) worked with a trainer on a side field at the team's facility Monday. He remains week-to-week due to a knee injury, but apparently he is making some progress. Williams was joined on the sidelines by safety Kelcie McCray, as well as defensive end Trent Murphy, two defenders battling […]

No Practice Monday For LeSean McCoy

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (groin) did not practice Monday due to a sore groin, a team spokesperson confirmed. The injury doesn't sound terribly serious, and it's not unusual for experienced players to receive practice time off, especially during early or mid-week sessions, due to their veteran status. While there is no official status […]

AJ McCarron Does Not Have Hairline Fracture

Buffalo Bills quarterback AJ McCarron (collarbone) received good news Monday when it was revealed he does not have a hairline fracture of the collarbone. He is now considered day to day and will return to the practice field once the soreness decreases, although he is in considerable pain and it's uncertain when that return will […]

Injured Kyle Williams Considered Week-To-Week

Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams (knee) has a better outlook after it has been confirmed that there is no ACL tear. This at least brings the possibility of a return for the 2018 season. Bills head coach Sean McDermott is calling this a "week-to-week" situation. The Bills will call upon rookie third-round pick Harrison […]

Josh Allen To Start Third Preseason Game

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen will start the third preseason game on Sunday night when the Cincinnati Bengals pay a visit to New Era Field in Orchard Park, a source said Monday. The rookie gets the nod over Nathan Peterman and AJ McCarron (collarbone). It's not necessarily a lock that Allen ends up being the […]

Jamison Crowder Back On The Practice Field

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (groin) returned to the practice field after missing a week of action due to a nagging groin injury. He worked out in pads and a helmet on Sunday, and it's possible he might be ready for the all-important third preseason game, or dress rehearsal, Friday night when the Denver […]

Taylor Decker Says Lions Offensive Line Will Be Better

The Detroit Lions first-team offensive line allowed four sacks, six quarterback hits and nine hurries on Friday against the New York Giants. The Lions were missing starting right guard T.J. Lang. However, tackle Taylor Decker believes there will be improvement. "Week to week you can always try to improve upon little things and I think […]

T.J. Lang Sits Out Practice Again

Detroit Lions right guard T.J. Lang missed another practice on Monday afternoon. Lang has now missed out on practice for over a week, including missing the Lions preseason game against the New York Giants on Friday. While his current injury is unknown, Lang has a recent history of injuries after missing three games in 2017 […]

Jamaal Charles, Orleans Darkwa Still Looking For Work

The Washington Redskins brought in free-agent running backs Orleans Darkwa (Giants) and Jamaal Charles (Broncos) for workouts, but the club elected to ink Adrian Peterson to a one-year deal instead. Darkwa and Charles remain unrestricted free-agents and will stay in the unemployment line for now. Darkwa appeared in 15 games for the New York Giants […]

Value For Rob Kelley, Samaje Perine Takes Hit

Washington Redskins running backs Rob Kelley and Samaje Perine saw their fantasy value potentially take a hit on Monday as the team signed free-agent RB Adrian Peterson on Monday. The 33-year-old veteran will compete for the starting job, and has two preseason games to get acclimated to the offense. Kelley's familiarity with the system will […]

Charles Clay's Reliability Should Continue

Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay is still leaning towards being the same reliable, consistent player we've always been accustomed to despite the latest situation that surrounds the quarterback position. After wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin, we have the likes of Corey Coleman and Zay Jones, who are both trying to prove themselves in this offense. The […]

Adrian Peterson Agrees To Join Redskins

The Washington Redskins signed free-agent running back Adrian Peterson (Cardinals) on Monday, adding a much-needed boost to their beleaguered backfield after losing rookie Derrius Guice (knee) to a season-ending injury in early August. Peterson is being brought in to give the team some experience, but also depth. The club also lost RBs Byron Marshall and […]

Josh Allen's Time Appears to be Now

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is on the cusp of taking center stage with the recent injury to fellow teammate and now injured player AJ McCarron. Second-year player Nathan Peterman, at this point, is the only other player that is in the mix to call plays for the Bills. The free-agent pool for quarterbacks is very unimpressive, […]

Steve Longa Placed On Injured Reserve With Torn ACL

Detroit Lions linebacker Steve Longa (knee) was placed on the Injured Reserve on Monday due to a torn ACL. Longa was forced to leave Friday night's game against the New York Giants because of the injury. The third-year linebacker appeared in 15 games for Detroit last season and was poised to be a backup at […]

Lions Cut Cornelius Washington

The Detroit Lions cut defensive end Cornelius Washington on Monday. By dropping the 28-year-old, the team has now lost two of their top four sack leaders from 2017. Washington appeared in 15 games a season ago and recorded just 2.5 sacks. While the move saves the Lions $2.7 million, it also puts defensive ends Kerry […]
