Melvin Gordon III Feels Like He Can Play Sunday

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, shoulder) said "I feel like I'll be able to go" on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. Gordon said he was close to playing last week against the Kansas City Chiefs, but the decision was made to hold him out for a week. The 28-year-old was limited on […]

Tony Pollard Has Torn Plantar Fascia, To Be Game-Time Decision

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) said that he tore his left plantar fascia on his long touchdown run against the New Orleans Saints last Thursday night and added that he'll be a "game-time decision" on Sunday against the Washington Football Team. Pollard missed the team's first practice session on Wednesday, and we'll keep […]

Ty Johnson - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson has seen his role in the offense decrease over the last few weeks. However, that is likely going to change against the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. Lead back Michael Carter (ankle) is out and backup Tevin Coleman (concussion) is unlikely to play. That means, Johnson should […]

Zach Wilson - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson is coming off one of his better performances last week. However, that isn't saying much since the rookie quarterback has struggled throughout most of the season. Last week, he threw for 226 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the loss. Now, he'll get a tougher challenge against […]

Snap Count and Usage Analysis for Week 14

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Noah Brown Placed On Injured Reserve

The Dallas Cowboys placed wide receiver Noah Brown (groin) on Injured Reserve on Thursday, which means he'll miss at least the next three games. The Cowboys announced earlier that Brown was dealing with a multi-week injury, so it makes sense for the Cowboys to put him on the shelf for the time being and hope […]

Mike Williams Has Tested Negative

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has already tested negative once after he was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday as a close contact of Keenan Allen, according to a league source. Cornerback Chris Harris Jr., who was also placed on the COVID-19 list on Wednesday, said he's also tested negative and said […]

T.J. Hockenson Not Taking Part In Practice Thursday

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (hand) is not taking part in the period of practice open to the media on Thursday, and he had his left hand wrapped pretty good. A DNP on Thursday wouldn't be a good sign for Hockenson after he was limited in practice to begin the week on Wednesday. His […]

Joe Burrow Gets Some Work In Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (pinkie) threw a few long and short tosses with a little force in practice on Thursday, and he also mixed in some midrange throws with touch. He wasn't using any tape on the dislocated pinkie finger on his right hand, nor was he using a glove to throw. Burrow didn't […]

No Sign Of Joe Mixon Thursday

There was no sign of Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (illness) at practice on Thursday after he missed Wednesday's session with what's believed to be a non-COVID-19-related illness. Fantasy managers should be a little concerned, but if Mixon can return to practice on Friday, he should be in line to start in Week 14 […]

Teddy Bridgewater - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater has been more inconsistent of late, and his play has fluctuated wildly from week to week. Per Football Outsiders, Bridgewater has 473 DYAR -- defense-adjusted yards above replacement -- through 12 games, averaging out to slightly below 40 DYAR per game. He should be able to be more efficient in […]

Randall Cobb To Be Out Awhile

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that wide receiver Randall Cobb (core) "is going to be out for awhile." "He had a pretty significant injury. That's unfortunate because he's done such an amazing job when given the opportunity," LaFleur said. It makes sense why Cobb wasn't practicing on Wednesday despite coming off the […]

Cowboys Defense Looks To Stay Hot In Week 14

The Dallas Cowboys defense will look to stay hot in Week 14 against the Washington Football Team. The Cowboys defensive unit was outstanding to start the season, posting top-12 fantasy performances in the first six weeks of the season before the bye week. They stumbled a bit after their break, finishing top-12 only twice in […]

Dalvin Cook Viewed As Game-Time Decision

Updating previous reports, Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (shoulder) is being viewed as a "game-time decision" for Thursday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to a league source. Cook will work out before the game, at which time the Vikings will decide if he's good enough to play after dislocating his left shoulder and […]

Greg Zuerlein - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein will look for his fourth straight top-12 fantasy performance in a Week 14 matchup against the Washington Football Team. Zuerlein has been a fantasy K1 for four weeks in a row and in all but three of the games he's kicked in this season. In a position as unpredictable as […]

Dalton Schultz - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz will look to find his upside again in a Week 14 game against the Washington Football Team. Schultz was outstanding earlier this season, finishing as a TE1 for four weeks in a row heading into the Cowboys Week 7 bye. After the bye week though, he's been a TE1 […]

Noah Brown Dealing With Multi-Week Injury

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Noah Brown (groin) "is going to be a couple-week injury," head coach Mike McCarthy said. Brown didn't practice on Wednesday and won't play in Week 14 against the Washington Football Team. And he could be facing an uphill battle to play in Week 15 against the New York Giants. Brown had […]

Michael Gallup - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup has some nice upside in a Week 14 matchup against the Washington Football Team. Even with CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper expected to be fully healthy and starting ahead of Gallup, the Football Team secondary makes it possible for all three wide receivers to put up fantasy-relevant performances. Gallup […]

Trevor Lawrence Lobbies For More James Robinson

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence made it clear to the coaching staff that running back James Robinson needs to be on the field as much as possible. Robinson is the team's best offensive player, but he's been off the field for 16 and 20 consecutive plays the last two games after fumbling. "James is […]

Amari Cooper - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is expected to return to his full workload in a Week 14 matchup against the Washington Football Team. Cooper missed two games due to COVID-19 and returned to play just 34% of the team's offensive snaps in Week 13. When asked about whether Cooper would be ready for a […]

CeeDee Lamb - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is set up for another strong performance in Week 14 against the Washington Football Team. Even with the Cowboys struggling with the passing game against New Orleans in Week 13, Lamb was still able to put up 16 fantasy points and an overall WR13 finish. With an unimposing matchup […]

J.D. McKissic Doing Individual Drills

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic (concussion) is doing individual drills on Thursday, but it's unclear how he'll be listed on the final injury report. McKissic took part in individual drills on Wednesday as well before being listed as a DNP on the final practice report. It's clear that he hasn't cleared the league's […]

Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups - Top Adds for Fantasy Football

Traditionally, Week 14 would mark the start of the fantasy playoffs for most leagues. In 2021, an extra week of regular-season NFL action means another week to prepare for the postseason and stack your team with bench depth and insurance policies. Of course, there are always injuries that beg for a replacement option. In this […]

Chase Edmonds Designated To Return From Injured Reserve

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (ankle) was designated to return from Injured Reserve on Thursday, starting a 21-day window before he has to be activated for a game. We need to pay attention to practice reports to see how quickly Edmonds is progressing and when he figures to come back, but it would seem […]

Ezekiel Elliott - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) will continue to play through his knee ailment but can no longer be considered a weekly RB1 option like he was when he was healthy. "Zeke" admitted that he was not at 100% this week and that he likely wouldn't be for another few weeks. He added, "You're […]

Dak Prescott - Week 14 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a strong fantasy option for Week 14 lineups. The Cowboys will be taking on the Football Team in Washington in a key divisional battle. Prescott was disappointing in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints, but the Football Team has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this […]

Tony Pollard Intends To Play Sunday

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (foot) is going through his rehab work with the intention of being able to play on Sunday at Washington. The talented third-year pro strained his foot on his 58-yard touchdown run against the Saints last Thursday, but there doesn't seem to be much concern about his status for Sunday. […]

Vikings Optimistic About Dalvin Cook Playing Thursday

The Minnesota Vikings are apparently feeling "optimistic" that their running back Dalvin Cook will play this week after suffering a dislocated shoulder two weeks ago. This would obviously be a much faster turnaround than many people expected and adds further confusion considering the game is being played on a Thursday night. It would be hard […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

With just a few more weeks of the season, fantasy managers need to stay on their toes, especially at the tight end position unless you have one of the top-three studs. Four, if Waller is healthy. Even T.J. Hockenson cannot be considered a must-start, as we'll find out below. It's a position filled with land […]
