Mo Alie-Cox Misses Practice Wednesday With Concussion

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Alie-Cox suffered a concussion in his team's Week 5 game and will now have to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to be able to suit up for a Week 6 tilt against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Alie-Cox has caught three balls for […]

Jerome Ford Limited With A Knee Injury On Wednesday

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (knee) was limited in his team's practice on Wednesday. The second-year running back's injury designation is at least a slight cause for concern with Cleveland coming off of a Week 5 bye. Ford has taken over as the RB1 in Cleveland since the season-ending injury to Nick Chubb. Cleveland […]

Joe Burrow Close To Full Health

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (calf) has been dealing with a nagging calf strain since the preseason and reaggravated the strain during a Week 2 loss. Burrow was not listed on the injury report ahead of Week 5 and wound up turning in his best game of the season, throwing for 317 yards and three […]

Jonnu Smith Dealing With Ankle Injury

Atlanta Falcons tight end Jonnu Smith (ankle) finds himself on the Week 6 injury report with an ankle injury that kept him limited in practice on Wednesday. Smith's status is worth watching as Atlanta heads into a Week 6 tilt against the Washington Commanders at home on Sunday, but as long as he doesn't suffer […]

Keaontay Ingram Listed As Limited In Practice

Arizona Cardinals running back Keaontay Ingram (neck) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice after he missed the last two games with a neck injury. Ingram's status is suddenly more of a story after the Cardinals placed James Conner (knee) on Injured Reserve this week. Rookie Emari Demercado took over lead-back duties after […]

Marquise Brown Out Sick Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) did not practice on Wednesday due to an illness. We'd be surprised if Brown actually misses the Week 6 contest against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams this Sunday, but it would be nice to see him return to practice on Thursday or Friday. The 26-year-old has been quarterback […]

Geno Smith Looks Ready To Roll

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (knee) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Smith tweaked his knee in the Week 4 win over the New York Giants but he had the bye week to heal up. Head coach Pete Carroll said earlier this week that Smith's knee is "fine," so he's fully expected to […]

DK Metcalf's Rib Injury Not Very Serious

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs), who missed another practice on Wednesday, said it "hasn't been" hard playing through a rib injury he suffered in Week 2. Metcalf has missed some practice time since then, but he said the Seahawks have helped him manage the issue to the point where he doesn't think about […]

Robert Woods Misses Wednesday's Practice

Houston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods (ribs) was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice. Woods had to briefly leave the Week 5 loss to the Atlanta Falcons with a rib injury but he eventually returned to finish the game. The Texans are most likely giving the 31-year-old a little bit of extra rest before […]

Mike Evans Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. It's not what fantasy managers want to see from Evans coming off a bye week after he was injured in the Week 4 win over the New Orleans Saints. Evans still has a couple more days to get on the practice field, […]

Juwan Johnson Still Not On The Practice Field

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (calf) remained a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. Johnson lasted played in Week 3 and appears to be in danger of missing his third straight game this weekend against the Houston Texans unless he's able to return to practice in the next two days. The 27-year-old remains on […]

Derek Carr Practicing In Full

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr (shoulder) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Carr suffered an AC joint sprain in his right throwing shoulder in Week 3 but surprisingly played the very next week in a win over the Carolina Panthers. A full practice early in the week is a good sign that […]

Week 6 IDP Start Em, Sit Em - Streamers and Fades for Fantasy Football Defensive Players

In this week’s IDP rankings article, I lampooned Arthur Smith as an offensive coach who can’t score points and gets bailed out by his defense and soft schedule. Today, I'd like to touch on another offensive coach who some are giving too much credit this week. That coach is Nathaniel Hackett. While the Jets rightly […]

Elijah Mitchell Doesn't Practice On Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. The 25-year-old back has been dealing with a knee injury that's limited him to just two games so far this season. He'll likely be out for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns if Wednesday's DNP is any indication. Jordan Mason has done […]

Travis Kelce Is Expected To Play On Thursday Night Against The Broncos

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (ankle) is expected to play on Thursday Night Football against the Denver Broncos in Week 6. The 34-year-old tight end sprained his ankle in the Chiefs' Week 5 win over the Minnesota Vikings and was listed as questionable for TNF, despite getting in a pair of limited practices […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Does Not Practice On Wednesday

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) missed practice on Wednesday. Both Smith-Schuster and fellow WR Demario Douglas (concussion) remain in concussion protocol and should both be considered questionable for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. The short-handed Patriots called up WR Tyquan Thornton from the practice squad earlier this week […]

Jordan Addison Limited In Practice On Wednesday

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. This is the first time we've heard about an ankle issue for the rookie wideout but a limited session is better than a DNP at this point in the week. He should be good to go for the Vikings' Week 6 […]

Lil'Jordan Humphrey Released By The Broncos

Denver Broncos wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey has been released by the team. The fifth-year receiver, who has played sparingly through the first five weeks of the season, will finish his tenure with the Broncos with four catches for 25 yards and a score. Humphrey was cut at the end of camp in August before being […]

Chris Olave On The Week 6 Injury Report

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (toe) is on the Week 6 injury report after putting in a limited practice on Wednesday. Olave apparently entered the Week 5 blowout win over the New England Patriots with a toe injury, and it could help explain why he has just three receptions on 11 targets for […]

Vikings Don't View Justin Jefferson's Injury As Season-Ending

Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said he doesn't view wide receiver Justin Jefferson's (hamstring) injury as a season-long injury. O'Connell didn't specify the specific grade of the right-hamstring injury but said it was severe enough to place him on Injured Reserve, which will keep Jefferson sidelined for at least the next four games. If […]

Jakobi Meyers Dealing With Wrist Injury

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (wrist) was limited in practice on Wednesday with a wrist injury on the estimated report since the Raiders didn't actually practice following their Monday night win over the Green Bay Packers. Meyers was the team's leading receiver in that game, catching seven of his 10 targets for 75 […]

Davante Adams Listed As DNP Wednesday

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's estimated practice report. Adams suffered a painful shoulder injury in Week 4 and was questionable for the Week 5 Monday night win over the Green Bay Packers, but he ended up playing through it and caught just four passes for […]

Greg Dulcich Questionable For Thursday Night

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) was listed as questionable for the Week 6 game on Thursday night against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Dulcich returned to practice on a limited basis on Tuesday for the first time since being placed on Injured Reserve before the Week 2 game. He was upgraded to a […]

Javonte Williams Will Play In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (quadriceps) practiced in full on Tuesday and Wednesday and has been removed from the Week 6 injury report. After missing the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets last Sunday, Williams will be back to face the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday Night Football. The 23-year-old has […]

Charles Cross Back At Practice Again Wednesday

Seattle Seahawks left tackle Charles Cross (toe), who hasn't played since spraining his toe in the season opener in Week 1, will practice again on Wednesday. The Seahawks are also getting right guard Phil Haynes (calf) back at practice, although left guard Damien Lewis (ankle) isn't practicing. Haynes and Lewis were injured in Week 4 […]

Andrew Thomas Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants left tackle Andrew Thomas (hamstring) will not participate in practice on Wednesday. Thomas could be looking at missing his fifth straight game on Sunday night against the Buffalo Bills if he's unable to return to the practice field later this week. The league's second-highest paid tackle was taken fourth overall in the […]

Saquon Barkley Starts Off Week With Limited Practice

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Barkley once again had his right ankle heavily taped while dealing with a high-ankle sprain that he suffered back in Week 3. The 26-year-old hasn't played since but is looking to make his return on Sunday Night Football […]

Myles Garrett Misses Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns pass-rusher Myles Garrett (foot) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. Garrett is dealing with a left-foot injury, but head coach Kevin Stefanski previously said the star defensive end is expected to be OK for the Week 6 game against the visiting San Francisco 49ers. The 27-year-old left the Week 4 game […]

Cole Kmet On The Week 6 Injury Report

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (hamstring) is listed on the Week 6 injury report after putting in a limited practice on Wednesday. Kmet's status is worth watching heading into Sunday's battle against the Minnesota Vikings, but as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks later this week, Kmet figures to have a good chance […]

Keaontay Ingram (RB, ARI) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Keaontay Ingram (neck) has missed the Cardinals' last two games against the San Francisco 49ers and Cincinnati Bengals with a neck injury.
