Jaylen Warren Still Competing For Roster Spot

Pittsburgh Steelers undrafted rookie running back Jaylen Warren has been the team's most productive running back, both in open training camp practices and in preseason games, but he's still fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster heading into Sunday's preseason finale against the Detroit Lions. Najee Harris is the unquestioned starter, while Benny Snell […]

Dustin Hopkins Goes 1-For-2 On Field-Goal Attempts

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Dustin Hopkins made one of his two field goal attempts in Friday's preseason loss to the New Orleans Saints. He also converted on his lone extra point attempt. Hopkins went 18-for-20 on field goals with the Chargers last season and should be a worthwhile fantasy option this year on what projects […]

Duke Johnson Sees Seven Touches In Preseason Finale

Buffalo Bills running back Duke Johnson carried the ball six times for 20 yards and caught one of his two targets for a two-yard gain in the 21-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Friday's preseason finale. It was Johnson's last chance to prove to the coaching staff that he belongs on the 53-man roster […]

Is Nico Collins the Texans WR2? Where Should I Draft Collins for 2022 Fantasy Football

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is a potential sleeper this year. He averaged six PPR fantasy points per game last season. While he ended the season as the WR86, Collins had some promising moments as a rookie. He played only 61.9% of the snaps and had a route participation rate of 73.1% last season. […]

Trevor Penning Dealing With Turf Toe

New Orleans Saints first-round rookie offensive tackle Trevor Penning (toe) suffered what is believed to be a bad case of turf toe in the preseason finale on Friday against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to sources. Penning will have an MRI exam to diagnose the damage, but he'll be out for a while. The 23-year-old […]

Derrick Brown's Injury Not Serious

Carolina Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown (oblique) suffered an oblique injury in the team's preseason finale on Friday against the Buffalo Bills and did not return. Brown's injury was described as minor, though, and he was held out for the rest of the game as a precaution. Before leaving the game, the 24-year-old passer rusher […]

Sam Darnold Believed To Have High-Ankle Sprain

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold (ankle) is believed to have suffered a high-ankle sprain on Friday in the preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills based on the initial evaluation, according to sources. Darnold will undergo an MRI exam on Saturday to determine the severity and if there is other damage. The 25-year-old had to be […]

Jalen Guyton Leads Chargers With 48 Receiving Yards

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Guyton caught both of his targets and tallied 48 yards in Friday's preseason bout with the New Orleans Saints. Guyton broke free for a gain of 38 yards on a deep pass from Chase Daniel in the first quarter. He has not seen more than two targets in any […]

Rachaad White (RB, TB) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~115 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~128 ANALYSIS: No Gronk, gimpy Godwin, dusty Julio, and three banged-up offensive linemen. That's the state of the Bucs' offense heading into 2022. Leonard Fournette seems to have gotten himself into shape, at least some sort of shape, but he won't take 100% of the team's touches. […]

AJ Dillon (RB, GB) - 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~53 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon entered last season as a high-end backup with upside but proved he's even more valuable than that. He finished as the RB21, rushing 187 times for 803 yards and five touchdowns, adding 34 receptions for 313 yards and two touchdowns […]

Larry Rountree III Scores In Preseason Loss

Los Angeles Chargers running back Larry Rountree III scored a touchdown on six rushing attempts for 12 yards in Los Angeles' 27-10 preseason loss to the New Orleans Saints on Friday. He also added two receptions for 12 yards. Rountree split carries evenly with Joshua Kelley after running behind him last week. He could potentially […]

Joshua Kelley Efficient On Seven Touches

Chargers third-year running back Joshua Kelley stood out in Friday night's preseason loss to the Saints, turning six carries into 40 yards and adding a one-yard reception. Although it was Larry Rountree III that found the end zone, Kelley was far more effective on the ground. With rookie Isaiah Spiller (ankle) dealing with an injury, […]

Baker Mayfield Throws Two Touchdowns In Preseason Victory

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield completed nine of 15 passes for 89 yards and two touchdowns in Friday's 21-0 preseason win over the Buffalo Bills. Mayfield, who was officially named the Panthers' Week 1 starter earlier this week, played on four drives in the first half and made some impressive throws. With rookie Matt Corral […]

Chuba Hubbard Struggles In Preseason Finale

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard handled four carries for just four yards and added three receptions for 25 yards on six targets in Friday night's preseason win against the Buffalo Bills. Hubbard started at running back for Carolina, but dropped two passes from quarterback Baker Mayfield early on and failed to get anything going […]

Shi Smith Scores In Preseason Start

Carolina Panthers second-year receiver Shi Smith started in Friday night's preseason matchup against the Buffalo Bills and turned four targets into three receptions for 32 yards and a touchdown. His score was the result of a 19-yard dime from quarterback Baker Mayfield in the second quarter. Smith has been getting work with the first-team offense […]

Tommy Tremble Catches Three Passes In Preseason Finale

Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble hauled in three of his four targets for 23 yards in the team's 21-0 preseason victory over the Buffalo Bills. Tremble will look to be more involved this upcoming season after only seeing 35 targets as a rookie, but will have to compete with Ian Thomas for TE1 duties. Although […]

D'Onta Foreman Scores Through The Air In Preseason Win

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman turned three carries into six yards and two targets into two receptions for 10 yards and a touchdown in Friday night's preseason victory over the Buffalo Bills. Chuba Hubbard got the start in this one but was similarly ineffective on the ground. Foreman, however, saw two of his three […]

All-Sleeper Team for Fantasy Football - Rachaad White, Nico Collins, Kyle Philips, and more

This isn't the All-Madden team. A sleeper isn't always going to hit but when they do, it can give you a huge advantage. What I have done for the third straight season is compile a team of sleepers consisting of players being drafted in the mid-to-late rounds, or not at all. All preseason long, the […]

DeVante Parker Targeted Four Times In Preseason Finale

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker caught two of four targets for nine yards in Friday's 23-6 preseason loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. He started Friday's game and took every snap in the team's first four offensive drives. The 29-year-old logged 24 snaps and had 16 routes run. He was acquired by the […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Rushes For 22 Yards In Start

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed five times for 22 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game during Friday's 23-6 preseason loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.

Hunter Henry Catches Two Passes In Preseason Finale

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught both targets for 23 yards in Friday's 23-6 preseason loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. It was Henry's first preseason action after being inactive for New England's first two contests. He slit routes 50/50 with fellow tight end Jonnu Smith. The 27-year-old caught 50 passes for 603 […]

David Njoku: 2022 Breakout Candidate For Fantasy Football

The Cleveland Browns have made some interesting personnel decisions in recent years. Look no further than acquiring troubled quarterback Deshaun Watson and signing him to a $230 million deal when he was eventually suspended 11 games by the NFL for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. What Cleveland has done at the tight end position […]
