Derrick Henry Officially Out Against Saints

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hamstring) is officially out for Week 16 against the Saints. Things were trending this way when Henry was downgraded to questionable on Saturday, and now fantasy owners will be without the most productive running back in the second half of the season for the fantasy finals. That's a really […]

Robby Anderson, Jamal Adams Active

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson (illness) and safety Jamal Adams (ankle) are active for Week 16 against the Steelers, but wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring, knee) will sit out. Anderson was expected to play the entire time, but he'll face a tough matchup with Pittsburgh's strong secondary in this one. Consider Anderson a […]

Curtis Samuel Active For Week 16

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel (knee) is officially active for Week 16 against the Colts. Samuel has scored in two of his last three games, but he hasn't gone over 100 yards in a single game this season and is even more risky as a WR3 with rookie quarterback Will Grier making his first […]

Ronnie Stanley Returning For Ravens

Baltimore Ravens left tackle Ronnie Stanley (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is active in Week 16 against the Browns. Stanley, a Pro Bowler in 2019, is returning after missing the Week 15 contest. It's an upgrade to Baltimore's entire offensive line and for MVP candidate Lamar Jackson under center. Baltimore's offense is […]

D.J. Chark Active Against Falcons

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark (ankle) is active for Week 16 against the Falcons. Chark will return to No. 1 wideout duties after missing just one week. His presence will be a downgrade for both Dede Westbrook and Chris Conley, who took advantage of Chark's absence in Week 15 by scoring two touchdowns. The […]

David Njoku Inactive in Week 16

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku will be a healthy scratch for his team's Week 16 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. This marks the second straight week in which Njoku will watch from the sidelines, despite being healthy. It is apparent that Njoku has fallen out of favor with the current coaching staff. Njoku dropped […]

Joe Mixon Has Stomach Bug

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is dealing with a stomach bug, and while he's expected to play against the Dolphins in Week 16, there are questions about how much of a workload Mixon will get. Fantasy owners who are starting Mixon in their fantasy championships might still want to roll the dice with Mixon […]

Devlin Hodges On "Short Leash" In Week 16

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges is reportedly on a short leash entering Week 16's meeting with the Jets. The Steelers need a win to keep pace for the sixth seed in the AFC, so head coach Mike Tomlin has backup quarterback Mason Rudolph prepared to play if Hodges struggles. This shouldn't have too much of […]

Markieff Morris Sinks Seven Triples Versus Bulls

Detroit Pistons power forward Markieff Morris pulled off a big offensive performance in Saturday's loss to Chicago, racking up a season-high 23 points with seven treys. He shot 7-for-12 from deep and 8-for-19 overall from the field, adding six assists in 37 minutes of action. Blake Griffin (illness) and Christian Wood (knee) both sat out, […]

Andre Drummond Puts Together Another Outstanding Line

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond did everything for the team again on Saturday, finishing a 119-107 loss to Chicago with 19 points, 14 rebounds, five steals, three assists, and two blocks. Drummond, who shot 8-for-17 from the field, has now tallied eight straight double-doubles, and he's been a big force defensively by snatching 16 steals […]

Tomas Satoransky Fills Stat Sheet Again In Saturday's Win

Chicago Bulls guard Tomas Satoransky had an action-packed 38 minutes against Detroit on Saturday, finishing a 119-107 win with 16 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and two steals. He had two makes from downtown and finished with good 6-for-11 shooting from the field. Satoransky has now played 30-plus minutes in three straight games, which has […]

Alexander Mattison Not Expected To Play In Week 16

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) is unlikely to play on Monday night against the Packers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. With Dalvin Cook already ruled out, this would leave control of the Vikings backfield to Mike Boone, who scored a pair of touchdowns last week. Boone should be considered an RB2 due to […]

Elias Pettersson, Canucks Pluck Penguins 4-1

Elias Pettersson recorded two points in the Vancouver Canucks’ 4-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday night. The speedy center now has four points in the past two games and is on pace to surpass his first-year totals in multiple categories including goals, points, hits, shots and power-play points. Offseason acquisition J.T. Miller added […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Posts Double-Double Saturday Night

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. didn't let Andre Drummond's presence bother him in Saturday's matchup against the Pistons, recording his fourth double-double of the month with 12 points and 12 rebounds. He shot a good 4-for-8 from the field and even nailed his only three-pointer of the game. Wendell Carter Jr. doesn't get a […]

Christian Kirk Expected To Play Against Seattle

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. There's some intrigue to Kirk in this matchup as the Seahawks secondary hasn't been as dominant as they have in past seasons, but Kirk's 2019 campaign has featured a lot of inconsistent play from the second-year wideout. Consider […]

Kerryon Johnson Should See Significant Work In Return

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson is back from the IR, and reports indicate that the Lions plan to give him a significant workload in his first game back. It's a bit of an odd choice considering the Lions don't have any postseason hopes and Johnson's long term health should be a priority, but expect […]

Zach LaVine Pushes Bulls Past Pistons With 33-Point Effort

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine scored a game-high 33 points in Saturday's win over Detroit, demonstrating some very good efficiency with his 9-for-15 shooting from the field. He was also outstanding from three-point range with a 5-for-7 effort, adding 10-for-14 at the line. LaVine also had five assists, five rebounds and one steal with five […]

Jordan Howard Expected To Be Inactive

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) is expected to be inactive against the Cowboys in Week 16. Howard hasn't played since Week 9, and with Miles Sanders and Boston Scott playing well, the team doesn't need to rush Howard back to the field. Sanders in particular should be set for a strong performance against […]

San Jose Sharks defenseman Brent Burns had a goal and an assist in his seventh multi-point outing of the season on Saturday. He opened the scoring with a power-play marker before helping Stefan Noesen to score, but the Sharks were outpowered by St. Louis, who extended their winning streak to five games with a 5-2 […]

Jonathan Toews, Blackhawks Thump Avalanche 5-3

Colorado was buried under an avalanche of third-period goals in a 5-3 loss to Chicago on Saturday night. Center Jonathan Toews led the way with three points. He now has nine points in six games as he works to jumpstart his modest offensive season. Patrick Kane recorded two points and now has 10 points in […]

Ben Simmons Posts A Double-Double Against Washington

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons posted an all-around double-double against the Wizards on Saturday, registering 14 points, 11 assists, eight rebounds and four steals. With so much attention focused on what Simmons can't do, a lot of what makes him great falls through the cracks and was on full display in Philly's latest victory. […]

Jake Allen Continues Good Season With Another Win

St. Louis Blues goaltender Jake Allen saved 34 of 36 shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over San Jose, improving his record for the year to 7-2-2. Allen hasn't played much over the course of the season, but he's done well whenever he has gotten the nod, posting a 2.19 goals-against average and a .931 save […]

Josh Richardson Drops 21 Points Versus The Wizards

Philadelphia 76ers wing Josh Richardson scored 21 points in a win over Washington to go with three assists and two rebounds. Richardson, who shot an efficient nine of 17 from the field, hadn't passed the 20-point mark since Nov. 25 up in Toronto. Like most on this unique Sixers team, Richardson is still trying to […]

Jaden Schwartz Racks Up Three Points Saturday Night

St. Louis Blues left wing Jaden Schwartz recorded his fifth multi-point outing of the season on Saturday, finishing a 5-2 win over San Jose with a power-play goal and two assists. Brayden Schenn had two assists as well, while Alex Pietrangelo scored twice. Ryan O'Reilly extended his point streak to five games with a short-handed […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target In Week 16

In Week 15, Breshad Perriman took advantage of the absence of both Mike Evans and Chris Godwin and caught three touchdowns which led him to finish as the No. 1 wide receiver on the week. Julio Jones was targeted 20 times against a banged-up 49ers secondary to finish as the No. 2 wide receiver on the […]

Joel Embiid Posts A Double-Double In Limited Minutes

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid managed to rack up 21 points, 13 rebounds, three assists and two blocks in a win over the Wizards. Given the MVP-type standards Embiid set for himself before the season, his production has been a bit of a disappointment. His minutes and shot attempts per game are down, leading to […]
