Julian Edelman Will Try To Bounce Back Against Bills

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee, shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in practice leading up to the team's battle with the Bills this Saturday in Week 16. The injury designation is most likely a mere formality, as Edelman has suited up week in and week out all season despite being listed […]

Tom Brady Has Unattractive Week 16 Matchup

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and his struggling offense will take on a tough Bills team in Week 16. It has been a brutal stretch for Brady and the passing game recently as the future Hall of Famer has passed for less than 200 yards in three of his past four games. Brady has […]

Demaryius Thomas Will Not Practice

New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring, knee) will not practice on Wednesday after sitting out in Week 15. He's not on the right track towards returning in Week 16 against the Steelers, and the veteran wideout might not play again the final two weeks of the season. DT has only 36 receptions for […]

Taylor Hall Picks Up Assist in Arizona Debut

Arizona Coyotes forward Taylor Hall assisted on Oliver Ekman-Larsson's game-winning goal Tuesday night, earning him his first point with his new team and 20th assist of the season. After being held out of his last two games while New Jersey negotiated the trade that would send him to Arizona, Hall hit the ground running, playing […]

Daniel Jones On Track To Start Sunday

New York Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) was working with the first-team offense again on Wednesday and is on track to return as the starting signal-caller for Week 16 against the Redskins. The 22-year-old missed the last two games with a mild high ankle sprain, but he'll be back under center to close out […]

Dak Prescott To Be Limited In Practice

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (shoulder) will be limited in practice on Wednesday after getting injured in the Week 15 blowout of the Rams. Prescott should be just fine to play in an extremely important divisional game against the Eagles this Sunday. The winner should take the NFC East division. Prescott will be a top-10 […]

Jameis Winston Throwing Tennis Balls

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (thumb) was limited to throwing tennis balls in practice on Wednesday for the second week in a row after fracturing his right thumb in Week 14. He did not grip a football last week until Friday and then went on to throw for a career-high 458 yards, four touchdowns […]

Chris Godwin Not Practicing Wednesday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (hamstring) was not at practice on Wednesday. Godwin was injured in the Week 15 game against the Lions and is expected to miss the rest of the regular season, so fantasy owners should plan on being without him in Weeks 16 and 17. With Mike Evans and Scott […]

Brewers Sign Eric Sogard

The Milwaukee Brewers have agreed to sign infielder Eric Sogard to a one-year contract. The contract reportedly may contain an option for the 2021 season, but specific terms are yet to be disclosed. Sogard had a strong 2019 season for the Blue Jays and Rays, slashing .290/.353/.457 while playing multiple infield positions. He's one of […]

T.Y. Hilton Expected to Play More in Weeks 16 and 17

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) reportedly finished Monday's game without aggravating his injury. Coach Frank Reich stated that he expects Hilton to see more playing time in the last two weeks of the season. He played just about half of the offensive snaps in a Monday Night Football loss to the Saints in […]

Mike Evans Officially Done for the Year

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday with a strained hamstring. Evans was already expected to miss the rest of the season after being forced to leave Week 14's game, but coach Bruce Arians seemed somewhat hesitant to state that Evans was finished for 2019. This transaction confirms […]

Eagles Defense Not Recommended for Week 16

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is not a recommended fantasy unit for Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys offense just ran all over a previously well-regarded Rams Defense in Week 15. Meanwhile, the Eagles defense had much more trouble than they should have against a bottom-tier Washington offense. It is a divisional battle for […]

Jake Elliott a Good Kicking Choice in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is a solid fantasy kicker for fantasy championship week. Elliott and the Eagles face off against the Dallas Cowboys in a battle for the NFC East. In what should be a close game, Elliott will likely be called upon for at least a few kicks. Last week, he made his […]

Dallas Goedert a Solid Option in Championship Week

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is a solid fantasy tight end option for Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys. The highly-touted but under performing Dallas defense has been exploited by tight ends all season, and with all of the Eagles wide receivers injured, Goedert and fellow tight end Zach Ertz should be the leaders […]

Padres Sign Kyle Barraclough To Minor League Deal

The San Diego Padres signed relief pitcher Kyle Barraclough to a minor league deal on Tuesday. The 29-year-old will also receive an invite to the Friars major league camp. Barraclough owns a 3.53 career ERA (3.84 FIP) across 252 1/3 innings, with his best years being 2015-2017 with the Miami Marlins. The Padres bullpen was […]

Zach Ertz a Great Option in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is a strong fantasy option in Week 16. Ertz and the Eagles will host the Dallas Cowboys in what is essentially the NFC East Championship Game. Ertz has a great matchup against a Dallas defense that has been exposed by opposing tight ends in the past. He saw 13 […]

Greg Ward a Decent Streamer in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward is a decent enough streaming option for a Week 16 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Ward will face his toughest challenge since becoming the de facto WR1 in the Eagles offense. He has seen nine targets in back-to-back games and should be in line for a similar target share […]

Claude Giroux Finds Scoresheet Twice On Tuesday

Philadelphia Flyers forward Claude Giroux helped lead his team to victory on Tuesday, recording a goal and an assist as his team cruised to a 4-1 home-win over the Anaheim Ducks. The Flyer captain was all over the box score in this one - also registering a plus-two rating, a pair of penalty minutes, two […]

Tristan Jarry Earns Victory Against Flames

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry stopped 33-of-34 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 victory against the Flames to earn his third consecutive victory. The 24-year-old came up big on multiple occasions to keep the opposition from getting back into the game, including a huge save on Flames forward Milan Lucic late in the second period. Jarry's fantastic […]

Carter Hart Gets Back In Win Column On Tuesday

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart picked up his 11th victory as his team defeated the visiting Anaheim Ducks 4-1 on Tuesday. Following three straight starts in which he allowed three goals, the 21-year-old bounced back with an excellent performance - allowing just one goal (on the man advantage) on 41 shots against in the contest. […]

Jeff Carter Extends Point Streak To Four Games

Los Angeles Kings center Jeff Carter registered a power-play assist as his team took down the Boston Bruins 4-3 in overtime on Thursday. With the first-period helper, Carter extended his point streak to four games (two goals, two assists). It was only a matter of time until Carter started seeing results for his consistent ability […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not a Good Fantasy Play in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 16 despite his increased role. With basically every other Eagles wide receiver injured, Arcega-Whiteside still hasn't been able to do anything with his starting role. He failed to record a catch last week against Washington and has made just eight […]

Jordan Howard Yet to Be Cleared for Contact

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) still has not been cleared for contact and appears unlikely to play in Week 16. Howard hasn't played since Week 9 and at this point it would be a surprise to see him back on the field this season. Miles Sanders will continue to dominate backfield touches for […]

Evgeni Malkin Scores 400th Career NHL Goal In Victory

Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin recorded one goal and one assist in Tuesday's 4-1 victory over the Flames, becoming only the fourth member of the Penguins franchise to reach the 400-goal mark. Malkin's empty-netter brought his season total to nine goals, along with a helper in the contest, his 20th assist. The 33-year-old is currently […]

Nelson Agholor Seems Unlikely to Play in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee) seems unlikely to suit up for Week 16. Eagles coach Doug Pederson said Agholor remains "status quo" when asked on Wednesday. The wide receiver hasn't played since Week 13. It would be huge for the Eagles if Agholor were to suit up since they have been left with […]
