Robert Griffin III Climbs the Depth Chart in Washington

Nope, Robert Griffin III hasn't been able to overtake Kirk Cousins as the Washington Redskins starting quarterback just yet, but he has surpassed Colt McCoy as the teams No. 2 quarterback ...at least temporarily. According to the Washington Post, McCoy has suffered a cut on his foot which will keep him out of practice for […]

Wes Welker and Hakeem Nicks on the Giants' Radar

The New York Giants must not feel 100 percent comfortable with the fact that Victor Cruz is expected back for week 4. According to ESPN's Josina Anderson, the team has scheduled workouts with wide receivers Wes Welker and Hakeem Nicks. It seems unlikely that the team would sign either man until they get to see […]

Matt Jones to Continue Seeing More Carries Despite Fumbling Issues

Alfred Morris owners won't be happy to hear this, but Washington Redskins coach Jay Gruden will continue to give Matt Jones the bulk of the carries at running back. This is despite the fact that Jones has already lost two fumbles in just three NFL games. “We’re not going to shy away from giving him […]

Start Eddie Lacy and Davante Adams, Both Active Tonight

After battling ankle injuries throughout the week, both Eddie Lacy and Davante Adams are officially active for tonight's Monday Night Football matchup versus the Kansas City Chiefs. There is no guarantee on exactly how healthy they are, or how many snaps they will play, but fantasy owners should still be starting both players in their […]

Jeremy Maclin (WR, KC) - Week 3 Monday Night Booms

The Chiefs offense simply doesn't take a lot of shots down field, and quarterback Alex Smith tends to be on the more conservative side. Maclin is one of those Chiefs wide receivers that hasn't caught a touchdown pass for over a year now, yet he has lead the team in targets this season and looks […]

Eagles Seeking Replacement for Kicker Cody Parkey

According to Fox Sports' Alex Marvez, Philadelphia Eagles kicker Cody Parkey re-aggravated a groin injury against the New York Jets on Sunday. The injury must be serious enough to keep him off of the field for a little while, because the Eagles have brought in several kickers for tryouts. Parkey is scheduled to have an […]

Drew Brees Expects to Play in Week 4 Against Cowboys

Drew Brees expects to suit up and start for the New Orleans Saints against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Brees said he was "very optimistic" about playing the Cowboys in a radio interview on Monday morning. Brees missed Week 3 due to a bruised rotator cuff. Since backup Luke McCown played well in his […]

Breshad Perriman Droppable in Redraft Leagues

It's hard to feel sorry for an overrated and overpaid quarterback who already has a Super Bowl ring. But with that said, the Ravens have put quarterback Joe Flacco in a tough spot this season. Other than Steve Smith Sr., Flacco has nobody to throw the football too. Sure, he was supposed to have first-round […]

Make Room in Your Lineups for Andre Ellington's Return

Hopefully Chris Johnson enjoyed his big week as the Arizona Cardinals starting running back on Sunday when he had over 100 yards and two touchdowns against the San Francisco 49ers, because he'll be back on bench duty next week. Cardinals coach Bruce Arians told the media following the game that Andre Ellington is expected back […]

Charles Sims Challenging Doug Martin in the Bucs' Backfield

Heading into the 2015 NFL season, everyone knew Doug Martin was a risky fantasy football draft pick. But as the preseason played out, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers convinced many people that Martin was undoubtedly going to be the team's feature back. Well, that only seemed to last two weeks into the regular season. In week 3 […]

Alshon Jeffery to Suit Up in Week 4 vs. Raiders

Chicago Bears wide receiver Alshon Jeffery is expected to return to the football field in Week 4 against the Oakland Raiders. Jeffery has missed the last two games with a hamstring injury. If you think this means you should immediately put Jeffery into your starting lineups, don't jump the gun. It seems highly unlikely at […]

Karlos Williams Will Continue to Hurt LeSean McCoy's Numbers

If you think LeSean McCoy's health is the only reason Karlos Williams is seeing the field - think again. According to The Buffalo News, Williams' playing time will continue to increase throughout the season. Unlike McCoy who has struggled to find any running room out of the backfield (he only had 16 yards on 11 carries […]

Jimmy Graham: Welcome to Seattle

Whether the reports of Jimmy Graham expressing frustration with his role (or lack thereof) in Seattle's offense through the first two weeks were true or not, the sentiment was valid either way. While Graham was targeted eight times in Week 1, he only saw two targets in a Week 2 loss to the Green Bay […]

A.J. Green and Steve Smith: Dueling Stars

The Cincinnati Bengals were beating the Baltimore Ravens 14-0 midway through the third quarter, with neither A.J. Green nor Steve Smith doing anything particularly noteworthy. Then, with about 6:30 remaining in the third quarter, Joe Flacco found Steve Smith on the right side, where he broke two tackles and scampered for a 50 yard touchdown. […]

Marshawn Lynch Exits Early - Carroll: "Nothing To Be Alarmed By"

Marshawn Lynch was listed as active going into their 4:25 home opener against the Chicago Bears, yet he started the game on the sidelines. This is not a completely foreign sight, as Lynch has occasionally taken the first few drives off as he continues to get loose when dealing with a nagging injury. What was […]

Initial Report on Ben Roethlisberger: Sprained MCL, Out At Least Four Weeks

CBS Sports has just reported that Pittsburgh Steelers' quarterback Ben Roethlisberger does not have any damage to his ACL, and that he is dealing with an MCL sprain that should sideline him for roughly four to six weeks. Anyone who saw the play that he was injured on are probably reading this with their jaw […]

Ben Roethlisberger Escapes With MCL Sprain, Likely Out 4-6 Weeks

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger suffered what looked like a scary injury on Sunday afternoon, but fortunately he seems to have avoided anything serious. CBS NFL Insider Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) has reported that Roethlisberger suffered no damage to his ACL, but did sustain an MCL sprain. Former NFL head team physician David J. Chao, […]

Marshawn Lynch active versus the Bears

After some late-week injury-report theatrics, Marshawn Lynch is reported as active versus the Bears in Week 3. The only concern for Lynch owners is that Seattle might run up the score so much, so quickly, that Seattle may choose to rest Lynch a bit. Through two weeks, however, the big back has played nearly 80% of […]

Eddie Lacy and Davante Adams Upgraded to Probable   

With some nice depth on the team, the Green Bay Packers may have been served well by backup RB James Starks and WR Ty Montgomery. In some very positive news for the Packers, however, both RB Eddie Lacy and WR Davante Adams have been upgraded from questionable to probable, after some concern and hand-wringing throughout the week. […]

Dolphins RB Lamar Miller & TE Jordan Cameron Expected to Play

Ian Rappaport tweeted around 4:00 AM that both Jordan Cameron and Lamar Miller are expected to play for the Dolphins this afternoon. The news coming 12 hours before gametime figures to be a great sign for Dolphins fans and all interested parties. After playing over 80% of snaps in Week 1, Miller played closer to 60% in Week […]

Jason Witten Active Against Atlanta

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten would almost have to be close to death, blind, and deaf in order not to see playing time - and even then it would be likely he'd suit up anyway. Despite some (and by "some", we mean that one guy overheard cussing to himself while sitting alone at Buffalo […]

Ladarius Green Declared Inactive

The San Diego Chargers are reporting that tight end Ladarius Green, who suffered two concussions within an 11-day span, has moved from doubtful to inactive as the Chargers take on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Green had been suffering from headaches this week and was limited during practices. Sensing that their tight end would be […]

DeMarco Murray Inactive Against Jets, Darren Sproles a Must Start

Keeping up with his mediocre debut with the Philadelphia Eagles thus far into the season,  DeMarco Murray is now listed as inactive during Week 3 against the New York Jets. Despite being listed as questionable after injuring his hamstring during practice on Sept. 23, ESPN’s Adam Schefter originally reported that “Murray has told people he plans […]

Philadelphia Eagles Running Back DeMarco Murray Declared Inactive

Fox Sports columnist Mike Garafolo has reported that Philadelphia Eagles running back DeMarco Murray will be inactive today against the New York Jets. According to reports, Murray's hamstring did not react well to testing this morning. This is the sort of potentially lingering injury that could make Murray's owners nervous for the next couple weeks. […]

Jeremy Hill to Return to Starting Role for Cincinnati

According to NFL Media's Aditi Kinkhabwala,  Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson says that Jeremy Hill will return to the workhorse role for the Bengals in Week 3. After Jeremy Hill lost a pair of fumbles in Week 2, Giovani Bernard took over with 20 carries for 123 yards against the Chargers. With Jeremy Hill […]

Seahawks Running Back Marshawn Lynch to Play Today Against the Bears

According to Ian Rapoport, Seahawks Running Back Marshawn Lynch will play at home today against the Chicago Bears. Lynch was limited in practice this week with a calf injury, but with him in the lineup, he should be in your lineup. I expect RB1 production for Lynch today against a Bears defense that ranks 10th […]

Rams Rookie Todd Gurley to Make NFL debut

According to Chris Mortensen, Todd Gurley will make his NFL debut today at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gurley is a high-risk/high-reward fantasy option for this week as it is unclear how many snaps he will play. With Gurley healthy, it is safe to drop Benny Cunningham in fantasy leagues. The debut of Gurley is […]

Chris Ivory Likely In, Eric Decker Out Against The Eagles

According to Ian Rapoport, Chris Ivory expects to play in Week 3 and Eric Decker is out with a PCL sprain at home against the Philadelphia Eagles today. With Ivory likely to play, Bilal Powell is not as intriguing of a fantasy option anymore and he should be relegated to the bench or waiver wire. […]

Isaiah Crowell (RB, CLE) - Week 3 Matchups Analysis

After a rough showing against the Jets  in Week 1 (who isn’t going to have a rough showing against that defense this year?), Isaiah Crowell bounced back with a strong showing against Tennessee in Week 2, rushing for 72 yards and a touchdown. His long term fantasy football upside may be limited, as he’s sharing […]

Eddie Lacy and Davante Adams Still Questionable for Week 3

As of the time of this writing, both Eddie Lacy and Davante Adams are still listed as questionable for their Week 3 matchups with the Kansas City Chiefs. Both players sustained ankle injuries in Week 2 versus the Seahawks, and were forced to leave the game. Adams eventually returned on a limited basis, but Lacy remained out […]
