Josh Allen Plays Two Drives

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen played only two series on Sunday, completing three of five passes for five yards. Sean McDermott said all week that he wanted Josh Allen to go through a normal week of preparation and routine as the second-year player gets ready for his first playoff game. Nothing to see here.

Anthony Davis is Questionable for Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It appears that Davis tweaked his shoulder on Saturday, but this has been something he's been dealing with all season long. The Lakers may elect to give Davis a rest day in the second game of the […]

Baker Mayfield Throws Three TDs in Finale

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 12 of 27 passes for 279 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions in a 33-23 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. He also added four rushes for 29 yards in the contest. The outing caps off what was a disappointing season both for Mayfield and the team. […]

Eric Gordon Will Return on Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (knee) will return to the rotation for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It will be his first game since mid-November, so the Rockets might ease him into action. Ben McLemore and Austin Rivers could big looking at heavy minutes with James Harden (toe) listed as questionable and Russell […]

Clint Capela is Ruled Out Against Pelicans

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This marks the second game in a row that Capela has sat out due to a right heel contusion. Tyson Chandler and Isaiah Hartenstein should split up the minutes at center. However, neither player is a strong […]

Anze Kopitar Leads Attack, Falls Short to Vancouver

Los Angeles Kings forward Anze Kopitar scored a goal and an assist in Saturday night's 3-2 loss to the Canucks. Kopitar is no stranger to being the primary driver of offense in Los Angeles, but in a game where the Kings put 51 shots on net, they were not able to score a goal that […]

Russell Westbrook Will Sit Out on Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Rockets will give Westbrook the night off. Austin Rivers and Ben McLemore should see more shots coming their way. Eric Gordon (leg) is returning, but it's unclear […]

Jacob Markstrom Endures Kings Attack, Picks Up Win

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Jacob Markstrom stopped 49 of 51 shots on Saturday night, earning a win over the Kings. It was the fourth consecutive win for Markstrom, who faced his heaviest workload of the season. Vancouver also had 31 blocks, led by Alexander Edler with seven blocks, which underscores how one-sided the chances were in […]

Tyron Smith Inactive Against Redskins

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (back) is officially inactive for Week 17 against the Redskins. This must-win game for the Cowboys is still very winnable against a poor Redskins team missing their entire starting secondary, but Smith's absence is a big loss for this offensive line and for quarterback Dak Prescott. Prescott had a […]

Kyler Murray Active, Charles Clay Out For Week 17

Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) is active for Week 17 against the Rams, while tight end Charles Clay (calf) is inactive. Murray was a game-time decision, but he'll suit up for the final game of his rookie season. The first overall pick has been up and down in his first season, but overall […]

Dede Westbrook, Gardner Minshew Active In Week 17

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook (neck, shoulder) and quarterback Gardner Minshew (shoulder) are both active for Week 17 against the Colts. Running back Leonard Fournette (neck) and cornerback A.J. Bouye (wrist) have been officially ruled out. Westbrook's fantasy upside is limited with both D.J. Chark and Chris Conley commanding targets in this run-first offense, […]

Mark Andrews Inactive, Marquise Brown Active

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) is inactive for Week 17 against the Steelers, while rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) is active. Running back Mark Ingram, quarterback Lamar Jackson, free safety Earl Thomas, defensive end Brandon Williams and offensive guard Marshal Yanda join the inactives list as the Ravens rest up for the […]

Kenny Stills, Bradley Roby Out In Week 17

Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills (knee), cornerback Bradley Roby (hamstring) and left tackle Laremy Tunsil (ankle) are inactive for Week 17 against the Titans. If this were a must-win game, they'd most likely all be active. But Houston has decided to rest them with a playoff game upcoming next weekend. The other starters that […]

Deshaun Watson, DeAndre Hopkins Active Against Titans

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson (back) and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (illness) are both active for Week 17 against the Titans. Both players were in danger of being rested ahead of wild-card weekend, but they will be active for the start of this game. That doesn't mean they won't be moved to the bench at […]

Goran Dragic Scores 19 Points In Victory

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic finished with 19 points, seven assists, two rebounds, one steal and one block on 7-for-16 shooting from the field and 1-for-5 from three-point range in Saturday's 117-116 overtime victory against the 76ers. The 33-year-old has produced four consecutive double-digit point performances since making his return to the lineup on Dec. […]

Jimmy Butler Posts Near Triple-Double In Victory

Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler scored 25 points on 7-for-21 shooting from the field and 11-for-14 from the free-throw line in Saturday's 117-116 overtime victory over the 76ers, while falling just short of his fourth triple-double of the season. Butler also recorded nine rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one block in a team-high 41 […]

Ben Simmons Finishes With Double-Double In Loss

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons finished with 15 points, 11 assists, seven rebounds, three steals and one block on 6-for-12 shooting from field-goal range and 3-for-6 from the free-throw line in Saturday's 117-116 overtime loss to the Heat. The 23-year-old continues to rack up steals at a high rate, as the third-year guard is currently […]

Kenny Golladay Suffers Head Injury

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay (head) is being evaluated for a concussion in Week 17 against the Packers. Before leaving, Golladay had three grabs for 72 yards. With nothing to play for in the regular season finale, we'd be surprised if Golladay returns for this game, which would be really bad news for those […]

Josh Richardson Scores 17 Points In Loss

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Josh Richardson finished with 17 points, five rebounds, two assists and one block in Saturday's 117-116 overtime loss to the Heat. The 26-year-old has enjoyed success against his former team with averages of 22.0 points, 4.0 assists and 3.7 rebounds on 52% shooting from the field and 54% from beyond the arc […]

Joel Embiid Scores 35 Points Against Heat

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid finished with 35 points, 11 rebounds, two assists and one block in Saturday's 117-116 overtime loss to the Heat. The 25-year-old produced his third-highest point total of the season, falling three points short of his season-high 38-point performance against the Celtics in December. Embiid has recorded ten consecutive performances of […]

Anthony Miller, Cordarrelle Patterson Injured Sunday

Chicago Bears wide receivers Anthony Miller (shoulder) and Cordarrelle Patterson (concussion) were both injured in Week 17 against the Vikings. Miller is questionable to return, while Patterson has been ruled out. In this meaningless game, we wouldn't expect Miller to return to the regular season finale. Miller caught his only target for five yards before […]

Freddie Kitchens On His Way Out Of Cleveland?

The Cleveland Browns have been doing due diligence and making calls on potential new head coaches for 2020, which is a bad sign for current head coach Freddie Kitchens. The Browns have flopped in 2019 in Kitchens' first year as the top dog in Cleveland. They are 6-9 and in third place in the AFC […]

Jason Garrett Likely To Be Dismissed

The Dallas Cowboys are expected to move on from long-time head coach Jason Garrett in the event they are eliminated from playoff contention in Week 17. If Garrett is fired, Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley, Baylor head coach Matt Rhule and former Panthers head coach Ron Rivera are expected to be candidates in Dallas. Garrett has […]

Mike Hoffman Tallies Three Points In Victory

Florida Panthers left winger Mike Hoffman scored one goal and added two assists in Saturday's 5-4 victory against the Red Wings. Hoffman reacted quickly on a rebound in front of the net on a save by netminder Jimmy Howard to extend the Panthers lead by two goals, while adding two helpers to bring his season […]

Kyler Murray Expected To Play Sunday

The Arizona Cardinals are planning for rookie quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring), who is a game-time decision for Week 17 against the Rams, to play on Sunday, according to sources. The only way that Murray will be ruled out is if his hamstring bothers him during pregame warmups. It's good news for anyone that was counting […]

Dylan Larkin Posts Goal, Assist In Loss To Panthers

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin scored his ninth goal of the season and added one assist to go along with three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Panthers. Larkin's goal from close range gave the Red Wings a one-goal advantage in the opening period, while the 23-year-old would contribute with a […]

Tyron Smith Not Expected To Play Against Redskins

Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith (back), who missed three days of practice with a back injury this week, is not expected to play in Week 17's must-win game against the Redskins, according to sources. Smith will test his back in pre-game warmups. Smith's absence wouldn't be a death sentence against Washington, but it'd certainly […]

Zach Ertz Dealing With Cracked Rib, Lacerated Kidney

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (kidney, rib), who is out for Week 17 against the Giants, is dealing with a cracked rib and a lacerated kidney, according to sources. Ertz was in the hospital after Week 16, but he's not being ruled out for a potential wild-card game next week if the Eagles beat […]

Ryan Strome Records Four-Point Game Against Maple Leafs

New York Rangers center Ryan Strome recorded a season-high four-point performance in Saturday's 5-4 overtime victory against the Maple Leafs, scoring two goals and adding two assists in the contest. Strome assisted on Brett Howden's opening goal of the game and added another helper on Tony DeAngelo's overtime winner. The 26-year-old has totaled 10 goals, […]
