Eduardo Escobar Leaves the Yard Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI on Tuesday in a loss to the New York Mets. Escobar's homer was his 34th of the season to go along with an eye-popping 112 RBI. This is clearly the veteran's best season of his career, and as long as […]

Zac Gallen Posts Another Quality Start Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen was brilliant again on Tuesday in a tough-luck loss to the New York Mets. Gallen threw six innings, allowing three runs on five hits to go along with nine strikeouts. The rookie's stuff was so good that he struck out the Mets' Jeff McNeil in all three of his first […]

Justin Dunn Will Debut on Thursday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Justin Dunn will make his major league debut against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday. Dunn was acquired by Seattle in the deal that sent Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz to the Mets. He's not expected to work a full starters workload, so he'll likely only pitch a few innings. Dunn won't […]

Cowboys Still Easing Ezekiel Elliott In?

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott said he thinks he's "ready now for a normal workload" heading into Week 2 against the Redskins, but head coach Jason Garrett pumped the breaks on that a bit. Garrett said the team will be mindful of how little practice time Elliott had this summer because of his holdout. […]

Eric Weddle On Track For Rams Defense

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay expects safety Eric Weddle (head) to be ready for Week 2 against the Saints. Weddle took a knee to the helmet from Christian McCaffrey in the season opener and missed the rest of the game. The Rams certainly need Weddle's help in the secondary with Drew Brees and […]

Jets Defense Dealing With Multiple Injuries

New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) and rookie defensive lineman Quinnen Williams (ankle) are both making good progress despite not practicing on Wednesday, according to head coach Adam Gase. “It’s giving us hope with both those guys,” Gase said. “There’s a still a chance for those guys to play on Monday.” Safety Jamal Adams […]

Adrian Peterson To Start Against Cowboys

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said on Wednesday that running back Adrian Peterson will get the start in Week 2 against the Cowboys with Derrius Guice (knee) expected to miss a few weeks. Peterson was a healthy inactive in Week 1, but Washington will ride the future Hall of Famer until Guice is healthy […]

Will Dissly Good To Go For Week 2

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that tight end Will Dissly (knee) is good to go for Week 2 against the Steelers after leaving the Week 1 game with a knee injury. Dissly caught one of his two targets for 12 yards before leaving the game last Sunday. In a run-first offense that rarely […]

Keke Coutee Returns To Practice Wednesday

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee (ankle) is practicing on Wednesday after sitting out of Week 1 on Monday night against the Saints. It means that Coutee should be able to make his season debut this Sunday against the Jaguars, although you never know with Coutee. While he was trying to get healthy, Houston picked […]

Cowboys Defense Looking for a Better Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys Defense will look for a better performance in Week 2. Ranked highly entering Week 1, the Cowboys defense didn't perform nearly as well as expected against the New York Giants offense. This week, a matchup against Washington should yield better results. Even though the Washington offense, led by Case Keenum, looked formidable […]

Brett Maher Looks Like a Good Choice in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher put up a somewhat disappointing Week 1 fantasy performance, although it was through no fault of his own. Maher connected on all five of his extra point attempts, but was not called upon to attempt a field goal. With a resurgent Cowboys offense and the favorable home conditions in Dallas/Arlington, […]

Blake Jarwin Not Much of a Fantasy Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin made a few courageous people happy in Week 1 by scoring a touchdown, but he is not expected to be much of a consistent fantasy contributor going forward. Jarwin played behind Jason Witten, who had a very "Jason Witten" game in Week 1. Jarwin was occasionally mixed in as […]

Jason Witten Has Another Low-Ceiling Week Ahead

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten will be a low-ceiling TE2 option in Week 2. Much like he's been most of his career, Witten was able to catch short passes and fall down in Week 1. One of those short passes just happened to be a touchdown, giving Witten some fantasy relevance in the first […]

Raheem Mostert's Opportunity Is Now

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert is in line for a sizeable workload in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. With the injury to Tevin Coleman (ankle), the Niners will pivot to Matt Breida and Mostert to man their systematic running back committee. The fourth-year special teams lifer averaged an impressive 7.7 YPC last […]

Patrick Mahomes Practicing Wednesday

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is practicing on Wednesday, and head coach Andy Reid said "he feels pretty good." Mahomes suffered an ankle sprain in Week 1 against the Jaguars but is expected to be fine for Week 2's matchup with the Raiders in Oakland. Mahomes was walking with a considerable limp after […]

Jalen Hurd, Trent Taylor Miss Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Jalen Hurd (back) and Trent Taylor (foot) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. Neither Hurd nor Taylor are expected to play in Week 2 on the road against the Bengals. Hurd is worth stashing in dynasty/keeper formats, but neither are attractive in redraft formats for the time being. With […]

T.J. Jones Re-Signed By The Giants

The New York Giants brought back wide receiver T.J. Jones, who was one of the final cuts at the end of the preseason. While the addition of Jones himself isn't noteworthy for fantasy purposes, his presence might be a sign that the Giants don't expect Sterling Shepard to clear the concussion protocol before Sunday's game. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/11/19): MLB DFS Lineups

Welcome to Wednesday baseball on DraftKings! While football season is well under way and most eyes are over there, DraftKings hasn't slowed down with the MLB tournaments. They feature the $100k Four Ball Special, but there are plenty of other big tourneys at much lower price points. There is a lot to love on this […]

Sterling Shepard In Good Spirits

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (concussion) is on the field going through protocol steps on Wednesday and looks to be in good spirits. Shepard might be limited in practice, at best, but it's a good sign for his availability in Week 2 against the Bills. Even if Shepard plays, though, he'll be more […]

Panthers Defense Won't Have Bruce Irvin Thursday

Carolina Panthers outside linebacker Bruce Irvin (hamstring) has been ruled out for the Week 2 game against the Buccaneers on Thursday. Irvin has yet to play so far in 2019. It's a slight downgrade for Carolina's pass rush against Tampa, but the Panthers Defense remains in play as a low-end option against Buccaneers turnover-prone quarterback […]

Trey Burton Day-To-Day

Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton (groin) is still day-to-day, but the Bears are optimistic that he'll be able to make his season debut in Week 2 against the Broncos on the road. We probably won't know until later this week if Burton will play, and he could be a game-time decision. Burton would strictly […]

Greg Olsen Questionable Against Buccaneers

Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen (back) is questionable for Thursday night's game against the Buccaneers. Olsen was able to get in a full practice on Wednesday and expects to play. The veteran has been plagued by injuries in recent seasons, but he'll be in play as a TE1 if he suits up against a […]

Randall Cobb Just a Depth Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is just a depth option in a Week 2 matchup against Washington. Cobb surprised in Week 1, gaining 69 yards and scoring a touchdown, but Week 2 should be dominated by Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup, and Ezekiel Elliott. Cobb is an injury to a Cowboys wide receiver away from […]

Michael Gallup Should Have a Solid Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup should have a solid Week 2 but will likely take a back seat to Amari Cooper. Gallup had a huge game in Week 1, catching seven passes for 158 yards, but Week 2 looks like a game for Cooper to shine. Gallup will still be there as the second […]

Amari Cooper Looking at Another WR1 Week in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is a solidly ranked WR1 again for Week 2. Traveling to Washington, Cooper should have no trouble piling up fantasy points on the road. The Washington defense was burned by Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson in Week 1 and Cooper should be similarly able to get open down the […]

Tony Pollard Just a Backup in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is just a backup for Week 2 and should not be in any starting lineups. Pollard got 13 carries in Week 1, tying with Ezekiel Elliott for the team lead, but could only gain 24 yards. With Ezekiel Elliott now expected to play his full workload, Pollard will […]

Ezekiel Elliott One of the Top Options for Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is one of the best running back options in fantasy lineups for Week 2. Elliott only got 13 carries in Week 1, but it was mostly due to the Cowboys being in control throughout the second half, allowing them to scale back Elliott's work. With Week 1 and a […]

Dak Prescott a Strong QB1 Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a strong QB1 option for a Week 2 matchup on the road against Washington. Prescott was great in new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's revamped offense in Week 1. He threw for 405 yards and four touchdowns and the Cowboys offense had no trouble moving the ball. Taking on a […]
