DJ Moore Expected To Suit Up On Sunday

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore (hamstring) is expected to play on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Indianapolis Colts Defense Strong In Week 16

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton caught four of five targets for 51 yards and a touchdown during a 22-16 Week 16 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines carried three times for 11 yards and caught a seven-yard reception during a 22-16 Week 16 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Darius Slayton - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Graham Gano - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano has been one of the few bright spots of the team's offense this season. He's converted 27-of-31 field goal attempts, including six from 50-plus, and is a perfect 15-for-15 in extra-point tries.

Browns Defense Solid In Loss To Packers

The Cleveland Browns defense played well in a 24-22 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. While Cleveland was unable to log a sack or force any turnovers, they held the Packers to just 311 yards of total offense in the close loss. The Browns have come along on defense over the second […]

Saquon Barkley - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) was removed from Friday's injury report after being limited in practice during the week. He wasn't in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles and should see his usual workload in Week 16.

Chris Naggar Misses Extra Point In NFL Debut

Cleveland Browns kicker Chris Naggar made his lone field goal, a 37 yarder, and went 1-for-2 on extra points in a 24-22 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 16.

Austin Hooper Goes For 26 Yards

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper caught three of five targets for 26 yards in a 24-22 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 16.

Jason Myers A Safe Option In Week 16

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers hasn't been a great fantasy option this season, but he does have some upside in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. Myers is the 27th-ranked kicker entering the week, and while he has some upside this week, he's still not the greatest streaming option for fantasy managers. The Bears defense […]
