Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (ribs, hip) remained on the sideline for Thursday's practice. The Seahawks have been careful with Metcalf throughout most of the season. Despite that, Metcalf has yet to miss a game, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried. However, Metcalf picked up another injury last week, so possibly the Seahawks […]
Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Cristopher Sanchez has been named the starter for Game 4 of the National League Championship Series in Arizona on Friday against the Diamondbacks, according to manager Rob Thomson.

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (thumb) will not play in Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday after dislocating his right thumb in the Week 6 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams (shoulder) was a full-go in practice on Thursday after he was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's session. Adams has missed some practice time with a shoulder injury he picked up in Week 4, but he hasn't missed any games. Unfortunately for his fantasy managers, though, Adams […]
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (groin) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday.
