Alfred Blue and DeAndre Hopkins Limited; Allen Hurns Unlikely to Play

The Houston Texans have had a lot of bad luck lately when it comes to their running backs. Start Arian Foster hasn’t been able to stay healthy for years, and this season has been no exception. And now backup Alfred Blue is banged up as well. Blue is reportedly dealing with a sore back and […]

Danny Amendola and Calvin Johnson Limited, Vincent Jackson Doesn’t Practice

It is safe to assume that nobody was happier to hear about Rob Gronkowski’s bruised knee that quarterback Tom Brady. Not only will he have Gronk back in a few weeks, Brady can also look forward to having wide receiver Danny Amendola back in the lineup soon. Amendola was limited in practice on Wednesday, but […]

Jay Cutler and Alshon Jeffery Both Great Plays Against 49ers

The Chicago Bears are coming off of their biggest win of the year, a game in which they defeated division rival Green Bay on Thanksgiving.  The Bears didn't play an amazing game, but they did enough to win.  The Bears are seeking a second-straight win this week against a new-look San Francisco 49ers team. When […]

Ryan Mallett Works Out for Ravens, Charcandrick West Practices and Devonta Freeman Cleared

Just when you think former New England Patriots and Houston Texans quarterback Ryan Mallett may never see the football field again, the Baltimore Ravens have come knocking. Mallett worked out with the Ravens on Wednesday, but left without signing a deal. The Ravens are likely just updating their emergency list in case something was to […]

Andrew Luck Throwing Pain Free, Martellus Bennett Practicing and Ryan Mathews Sidelined

Indianapolis Colts head coach Chuck Pagano said recently that he plans to stick with Andrew Luck as his starting quarterback as soon as the former No. 1 overall draft pick is healthy. Well, it sounds like Luck won’t be out of action for too much longer. Luck said on Wednesday that he has been throwing […]

Can You Count on David Johnson to Replace Chris Johnson?

One of the biggest surprises of the 2015 season was the reemergence of Arizona Cardinals running back Chris Johnson.  Johnson is best known for his days as a Tennessee Titan, an era in which he once rushed for 2,000 yards in a single season.  Johnson also spent time with the New York Jets but never […]

Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham Hurt During Week 12 Play

For the most part, Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham have been two of the most dominant tight ends of their era. Though generally known for their productivity, both currently find themselves sidelined after a pair of injuries during Week 12 play. Whenever a player is carted off the field for a knee injury, the worst […]

Brock Osweiler And C.J. Anderson Lead Denver To Victory Over New England

Some people may have thought that the Broncos’ chances of getting far in the playoffs took a huge hit after it was revealed a couple of weeks ago that Peyton Manning; who has not looked like himself for a majority of the season, had a partially torn plantar fascia in his left foot, which would […]

Spencer Ware May Cut Into Charcandrick West's Carries; Lamar Miller May Lose Touches to Jay Ajayi

In need of a solid running back come Week 13 of your fantasy football season? Sure, there are plenty of big-name, top-of-the-line backs out there, but there’s still quite a bit of talent among those who aren’t nearly as popular or well known. Take Spencer Ware of the Kansas City Chiefs, for example. Ware is […]

Battle of the Birds: Russell Wilson Soars as Matt Ryan Plummets

It’s hard to be a quarterback in the NFL. Think about it—not only are you largely responsible for the success or demise of your team, but your each and every move is analyzed at all times. Though unlikely to change, the microscope under which quarterbacks often find themselves can be both a blessing and a […]

Philip Rivers And Derek Carr Up, Drew Brees And Nick Foles Down In Week 12

After an abysmal performance in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs that saw him throw no touchdowns and an interception, Philip Rivers bounced back in a big way against the Jacksonville Jaguars, throwing for 300 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions on 29-for-43 passing. Despite his sometimes inconsistent nature, Rivers remains one of the […]

Jeremy Maclin Back On The Rise, Spencer Ware Potential Fantasy Stud?

The Kansas City Chiefs have saved their season and look to have a great chance at a wild card playoff spot. After a disappointing 1-5 start to the season and losing star running back Jamaal Charles for the remainder of the year, Kansas City is now on a five-game winning streak. They control their own […]

Rob Gronkowski Should Return, But Add Scott Chandler; Don’t Give Up On Brandon LaFell Just Yet

The fantasy story of the New England Patriots gets more confusing and intriguing each week. After losing fantasy studs Dion Lewis and Julian Edelman for the season, Tom Brady has to work his magic with significantly less talent. Sunday night put a major scare into Brady and Patriots fans when superstar tight end Rob Gronkowski […]

During Brock Osweiler’s Finest Moment, Demaryius Thomas Was Nowhere to Be Found

The quarterback drama in Denver has been well-documented in recent weeks. With Peyton Manning’s ability and health being called into question, Brock Osweiler has had the opportunity to solidify himself as a viable NFL starter. Once Peyton’s healthy, he may or may not have his starting job handed back to him. That said, while Osweiler […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick And Brandon Marshall Both Put On Season-Best Perfomances In Week 12 Victory

The New York Jets have been in a tailspin since starting the season off 4-0, losing four of their last five games, including a Week 10 loss to former Jets coach Rex Ryan and his Buffalo Bills. Frustration had been mounting for both the team and their fans, making Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Miami […]

Russell Wilson And Doug Baldwin Have Huge Games, Jimmy Graham Out For Season After Seattle's Week 12 Matchup

The Seahawks have picked up the slack after their slow start to the season, winning three of their previous four games prior to Sunday's matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Seattle continued their string of solid performances on Sunday with a 39-30 victory over Pittsburgh, behind huge performances from quarterback Russell Wilson and wide receiver Doug […]

Tevin Coleman a Solid Fill-In Play for Devonta Freeman

We all know of the type of numbers Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman is capable of putting up.  The guy has had a phenomenal year both running and catching the football.  Unfortunately for Freeman owners, he's out for today's game against the Minnesota Vikings.  Rookie running back Tevin Coleman is slotted in to take […]

Travis Kelce In, Spencer Ware to Start, Danny Amendola Out, Emmanuel Sanders and Keshawn Martin Active

According to Ian Rapaport, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is expected to play today despite groin and ankle injuries. With Kelce in the lineup, it is a slight bump up in projections for Alex Smith, but there are still likely better options on the waiver wire. The Buffalo Bills have allowed the sixth-fewest […]

Chris Johnson, Carson Palmer, Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd In For Big Day Against 49ers

The Arizona Cardinals will face the San Francisco 49ers later today, and all signs suggest Chris Johnson will have that bounce-back game fantasy owners have been waiting for. Johnson has one of his best games of the year in Week 3 when they first met the 49ers, rushing for 110 yards and two touchdowns, adding a catch […]

Jarvis Landry and Rishard Matthews in, Darrelle Revis out, Michael Floyd expected to play, Nick Foles in for Case Keenum

According to Ian Rapaport, the Miami Dolphins will have both Rishard Matthews (ill) and Jarvis Landry (knee) in the lineup today. They will be facing a Jets secondary that will be without Darrelle Revis (concussion). This is a boost for quarterback Ryan Tannehill who becomes an intriguing streaming option. Both Landry and Matthews are solid starting options against […]

Can You Trust Brian Hoyer, Josh McCown and Tom Brady In Week 12?

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is one star that every fantasy football player loves to start. Brady is elite at his position and typically put up points in a most fun fashion. With Thanksgiving so fresh in our memories, Brady is the glorious turkey at the center of the dinner table. Brady is the […]

Jordan Reed and Delanie Walker Are Must Starts at Tight End Position

Have the tight ends of the NFL all gathered together and concocted a plan to punish fantasy football fans? Probably not but the highly inconsistent play from the position can lead to conspiracy theories. No tight end is truly trustworthy on a week-to-week basis but Rob Gronkowski. With Gronkowski’s high salary and matchup against the […]

Danny Woodhead and Antonio Gates Are Best Values on Chargers, Philip Rivers Not As Much

The San Diego Chargers offense has been dismantled with the loss of Keenan Allen. Quarterback Philip Rivers was torching the opposing defenses and established himself as a QB1 for the first half of the season. After losing his top target Allen, Rivers has looked rather ordinary and is no longer a trustworthy fantasy quarterback. Rivers […]

Brian Hoyer, DeAndre Hopkins to Destroy Cameron Jordan and the Saints this Sunday

Yes, you read that correctly—Brian Hoyer could very much play the part of an offensive juggernaut this weekend against Cameron Jordan and the New Orleans Saints. Honestly, it probably doesn’t matter who’s under center for the Houston Texans come game time. Using just about any defensive metric, the Saints are the worst defensive team in […]

Charcandrick West (Concussion), Travis Kelce (Ankle) Questionable: Keep Spencer Ware Ready

The Kansas City Chiefs could be without two of their play-makers on Sunday because both Charcandrick West and Travis Kelce are both listed as questionable for Week 12 against the Buffalo Bills, according to the team’s website. The Chiefs have won four straight games despite not having Jamal Charles in the lineup. The star running […]

Danny Amendola Out: Start Either Keshawn Martin Or Chris Harper Sunday

Danny Amendola won’t be making the trip to Denver for the New England Patriot’s Sunday night game against the Broncos, according to CSN. The wide receiver worked out Saturday morning and his knee simply wouldn’t hold up. Amendola will now be on the long list of play-makers that will be out for the defending Super […]

Tyrod Taylor and Sammy Watkins Are Likely to Underperform Against the Chiefs

Though Rob Ryan’s month certainly didn’t go as planned, his brother Rex has had a good go at things in recent weeks. Sure, Ryan and the Buffalo Bills were unable to close the gap between themselves and the New England Patriots last week in a losing effort, but the game was kept close down to […]

Ben Roethlisberger and Martavis Bryant Are Ready to Test the ‘Legion of Boom’

Yes, the Pittsburgh Steelers are traveling to Seattle to play the Seahawks. Yes, the “Legion of Boom” will very much be present when the opening kickoff takes place. And yes, team captain and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is still dealing with a nagging foot injury. That said, even with so much damning evidence firmly in place, […]
