Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (shoulder) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice after it was previously reported that he was limited with a shoulder injury he aggravated in last Thursday night's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. All signs point to Allen taking more of a maintenance day on […]
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (knee) got in a full practice on Wednesday. The 28-year-old QB played through his knee issue in last Thursday's loss to the Buffalo Bills so he should be ready to go in Week 9 against the Houston Texans, barring any setbacks. Mayfield has some streaming appeal this week facing […]
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward (groin) has been activated from Injured Reserve and will play on Thursday Night Football. The six-time Pro Bowler has been on IR since suffering a groin injury back in Week 1, so he will be a welcome addition to the Steelers' defense against rookie quarterback Will Levis and the […]
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (thumb) will not be placed on Injured Reserve, according to head coach Sean McVay. Stafford suffered a UCL sprain in his right thumb in a Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, which forced him to exit the game early. He is considered day-to-day and while he missed practice […]
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (ribs) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and will start in Week 9 on Thursday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans. Pickett suffered a rib injury just before halftime in a Week 8 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and was replaced by Mitch Trubisky. Initially, it seemed like […]
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Thursday Night Football in Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. This was expected as the veteran signal-caller has been dealing with an ankle injury since Week 6. Rookie quarterback Will Levis looked sharp in his debut, throwing four touchdowns in a victory over […]
Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (toe) is questionable for Thursday Night Football in Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The veteran wideout got in a few limited practices to start the week but appeared to have suffered a setback, as he didn't practice at all on Wednesday. Typically, it's not good to see a […]
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (illness) was limited at practice on Wednesday. The veteran wideout is recovering from an illness, according to head coach Dennis Allen, and he's expected to start participating fully in practice as the week goes on. It sounds like Thomas isn't in any danger of missing the Saints' Week […]
Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has rushed 34 times for 198 yards (5.8 YPC) and a touchdown and caught 18 of his 24 targets for 120 yards through the first seven games of his NFL career. The rookie looks explosive and has been efficient, but he doesn't have fantasy viability behind Derrick Henry every […]
Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo has seen 19 targets in his last three contests, putting him back on the fantasy radar in deep leagues. Especially since Will Levis brought life to the Titans' passing offense in Week 8 with four passing touchdowns, Okonkwo could have value moving forward. However, a Week 9 matchup with […]
The Atlanta Braves outrighted right-hander Ben Heller and infielder Andrew Velazquez to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday. The Baltimore Orioles also claimed outfielder Sam Hilliard off waivers from the Braves. Heller, 32, made his first appearance in the big leagues in three years in 2023 and surrendered nine runs (eight earned) on 16 hits (two home […]
The Texas Rangers don't really have any reason to change up their lineup after putting up 11 runs in the victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 4 of the World Series on Tuesday. Now that outfielder Adolis Garcia (oblique) is off the World Series roster, Travis Jankowski will make a second straight start in […]
The Baltimore Orioles claimed outfielder Sam Hilliard (heel) off waivers from the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday and designated right-hander Joey Krehbiel for assignment in a corresponding move. Before missing the end of the regular season in 2023 due to a heel injury, Hilliard went 17-for-72 (.236) with three home runs, five doubles, six RBI, four […]
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught his third touchdown of the season last week against the Atlanta Falcons, reintroducing himself to the fantasy football radar. Rookie quarterback Will Levis looked impressive in his NFL debut, tossing four touchdowns and zero interceptions. Heading into a matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have allowed the fourth-most […]
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Evan Longoria is back at third base and is hitting eighth in Game 5 of the World Series on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers and right-hander Nathan Eovaldi as the D-backs look to stave off elimination. Emmanuel Rivera will return to the bench after starting at the hot corner in Game […]
