Keep Riding The Bills Defense In Week 11

The Bills Defense is in an excellent position going into Week 11 with an extremely favorable matchup against the Dolphins. The Dolphins average just 13.2 points per game and under 260 yards from scrimmage per game. Somehow, the Dolphins are one of just two teams who have scored over 20 points against the Bills this […]

Robert Foster Should Remain On Waivers

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Robert Foster came down with his first catch of the season in Week 10 against the Browns. He has just six targets on the year and has become a complete afterthought in the Bills offense after a promising rookie year. Foster would need an injury to John Brown or Cole Beasley, […]

Odubel Herrera Will Have To Earn Roster Spot

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Odubel Herrera, who was suspended for 85 games last summer for a domestic-violence incident, must earn his spot on the roster next spring training, according to general manager Matt Klentak. Scott Kingery, Adam Haseley and Roman Quinn are all options to start in center field over Herrera, and the Phillies could also […]

Duke Williams Not Roster-Worthy For Week 11

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Duke Williams was a surprise inactive for Week 10 against the Browns. Even if he suits up for Week 11 against the Dolphins, he likely won't be heavily utilized in the game. Williams has just six catches on seven targets over the season. Robert Foster filled in for Williams as the […]

Mathew Barzal Records Multi-Point Effort On Wednesday

New York Islanders center Mathew Barzal opened the scoring during Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. He also a power-play assist in 17:52 of ice time.

Redskins To Rotate Adrian Peterson, Derrius Guice

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) will return in Week 11 against the Jets after missing eight weeks with a torn meniscus in his knee. Previous head coach Jay Gruden sat Adrian Peterson in Week 1 with Guice as the lead back, but interim head coach Bill Callahan has built the offense around Peterson […]

Justin Dowling Scores First Career NHL Goal

Dallas Stars center Justin Dowling buried the first goal of his NHL career on Wednesday in a 3-1 road victory over the Calgary Flames. Skating in his 14th NHL regular-season game (34 games including playoffs), the minor-league journeyman beat Flames netminder Cam Talbot with a toe-drag move on an odd-man rush in the third period […]

Joe Pavelski Scores Twice In Wednesday's Win

Dallas Stars forward Joe Pavelski registered two goals as his team defeated the Calgary Flames 3-1 on Wednesday night. Playing center for the first time since the first week of the season, Pavelski was all over the scoresheet in this one - also registering a power-play point, a plus-one rating, two penalty minutes, five shots […]

Anthony Beauvillier Snipes Two Goals In Win Over Leafs

New York Islanders left wing Anthony Beauvillier scored a power-play goal and an even-strength goal during Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. He fired five shots on net across 17:03 of ice time. The 22-year-old has been relatively productive for the Islanders this season. He has four goals, six assists, and 34 shots […]

Le'Veon Bell To Be Limited In Practice

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (ribs) will be limited in practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. The Jets were just giving Bell a breather in practice on Wednesday, so you should expect him to be fine for Week 11 against the Redskins. The team's starting running back probably isn't 100 percent […]

William Nylander Has Seven Points Over Past Five Games

Toronto Maple Leafs right wing William Nylander scored with a skilled redirection during the second period of Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the New York Islanders. The Swedish forward is on fire lately, producing five goals and two assists over his last five games. Nylander's disappointing performance from last season is in the distant past now, […]

John Tavares Nets Two Points In Loss To Islanders

Toronto Maple Leafs center John Tavares tallied a goal and added an assist during Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the New York Islanders. Much to the chagrin of Islanders' fans, Tavares pulled the Maple Leafs within a goal with just 38 seconds remaining in the game. The 29-year-old now has four points in his last two […]

Brandin Cooks Ruled Out For Week 11

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks (concussion) was ruled out for Week 11 against the Bears on Monday, but he was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. While it's progress for Cooks to be limited in practice, there remains no timetable for his return following his latest concussion. Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods and […]

James Conner Good To Go For Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) practiced in full all week and was taken off the final injury report for Week 11 against the Browns on Thursday night. Conner will return after missing the last two weeks, and he should be in a workhorse role in a solid matchup against Cleveland's weak run defense. […]

David Johnson Not On Week 11 Injury Report

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (ankle, back) is not listed on the team's initial injury report for Week 11 against the 49ers. Johnson just didn't look like himself in the Week 10 loss to the Buccaneers, and he had just five carries on the day. He's certainly not 100 percent, and fantasy owners should […]

Will Fuller Could Return In Week 11

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) returned to practice on Wednesday and was a limited participant. There's no guarantee that Fuller will return for the first time since Week 7, but we'll track his practice status the rest of the week. If he returns against the Ravens this Sunday, Fuller will be a boom/bust […]

T.Y. Hilton Could Return To Practice Later This Week

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) didn't practice on Wednesday, but there's a chance he'll return to the field later in the week. Hilton is known as a fast healer, so he could return earlier than expected. As of now, you need to prepare as though Hilton won't play in Week 11 against the […]

Dede Westbrook Back At Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook (neck, shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and is on track to return in Week 11 against the Colts for the first time since Oct. 27 against the Jets. With quarterback Nick Foles (collarbone) also returning in Week 11, Westbrook has some real potential to return […]

Tyler Lockett Expected To Be Ready For Week 12

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett (leg) flew back to Seattle on Wednesday after spending the last two days in a hospital, according to a source, and the expectation is that Lockett will be ready to face the Eagles in Week 12 after having the bye week to rest up. The 27-year-old had a dud […]

Matt Breida to Miss a Game or Two

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida is expected to miss "a week or two" after aggravating a low-ankle sprain in the Week 10 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. It's mostly good news, and there was some concern Breida would have to miss a more significant amount of time. Tevin Coleman will operate as the […]

A.J. Green Still Not Practicing

Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. Green was close to making his season debut in Week 10 before experiencing swelling in his ankle after practicing early in the week. He looks to be on the wrong side of questionable for Week 11 against […]

John Ross Cleared To Practice

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver John Ross (collarbone) was cleared to practice on Wednesday and was designated to return from Injured Reserve. He's been out since Oct. 2 after breaking his clavicle in Week 4 against the Steelers. Ross will be eligible to return in Week 14 if he doesn't suffer any setbacks in practice. The […]

George Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders, Robbie Gould Out Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (ankle, knee), wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) and kicker Robbie Gould (quadriceps) all missed practice on Wednesday. Kittle and Gould sat out on Monday night. All three could be game-time decisions in Week 11 against the Cardinals, making it tough on fantasy owners with the late afternoon start. […]

Chris Herndon IV Placed On IR

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon (hamstring) has been placed on injured reserve and will miss the remainder of the 2019 season. Herndon, who missed the first four games of the season due to suspension, was only active for two games this season and only played in one due to a nagging hamstring injury. […]

Sidney Crosby Out At Least Six Weeks With Injury

Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby will miss at least the next six weeks after having surgery to repair a core muscle injury on Thursday. The 32-year-old sustained the injury in the third period of a 3-2 shootout victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday and did not return to the game. The news comes as […]

Chase Edmonds Still Not Practicing

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hamstring) missed practice again on Wednesday and looks likely to miss another game in Week 11 against the 49ers. Edmonds had RB2 upside while filling in for the injured David Johnson for several weeks, but Edmonds is now injured himself and the Cardinals have Kenyan Drake as depth behind […]

Peyton Barber Not An Appealing Week 11 Option

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber took over in Week 10 after Ronald Jones II fumbled late in the fourth quarter, which puts the Bucs backfield right back where it started, a frustrating timeshare. Jones and Barber had the same amount of touches in Week 10, but Jones was clearly the go-to on passing […]

Dawson Knox Could Be A Low-End TE1 Option In Week 11

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox had a promising performance in Week 10 against the Browns, catching four of six targets for 55 yards. It was his best game since Week 4 after being held under 25 receiving yards in five straight games. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Tyler Kroft went without a target in the […]

Cole Beasley Is A Decent WR3/Flex Play In PPR

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has had strong fantasy outputs in four straight games, but he's gotten a bit lucky over that span. He scored touchdowns in three straight games from Week 7 to Week 9, but had under 20 receiving yards in two of those games. Last week, he had 74 receiving yards, […]
