Budda Baker Has Upside

Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker has quietly been a top-10 defensive back over the last five weeks. He had 27 total tackles the last two games, and he'll have a chance for more against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs complete a lot of passes, and they average the fifth-most fantasy points allowed to DBs […]

Cardinals Defense A Streaming Option

The Arizona Cardinals Defense is worth consideration as a one-week play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs throw the ball pretty well, but they turn the ball over and allow sacks. The Buccaneers allowed 4.5 sacks, 1.3 lost fumbles and 1.8 interceptions per game over the stretch. The Cardinals haven't been world beaters as […]

Chandler Jones A Flex Play

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Chandler Jones has been fire and ice the last five weeks. He has 14 total tackles and 6.5 sacks during that stretch, but the problem is five tackles and four sacks came in one game. Lucky for him, though, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have allowed 18 sacks in the last four games. […]

Zane Gonzalez A Top-Flight Play

Arizona Cardinals kicker Zane Gonzalez might win you a round of trivia if the question were: "Who is the highest-scoring kicker in fantasy the last five weeks?" It is indeed Gonzalez. He booted 12-for-13 in field goals and nailed all 11 extra-point attempts. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers provide a good matchup for him as they […]

Shabazz Napier To Miss Friday’s Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Shabazz Napier will be held out of Friday’s game against the Golden State Warriors due a hamstring injury that has cost him each of his team’s past two outings. With both Napier and Jeff Teague (illness) sidelined, the team will have to get creative at point guard again with Andrew Wiggins […]

Give Christian Kirk A Mulligan

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk is coming off his worst outing of his injury-riddled season with two grabs for eight yards. In fairness, it was a short week, and he just returned from a month-long absence due to an ankle injury. He'll have 10 days to freshen up, and his matchup against the Tampa […]

Larry Fitzgerald Has A Great Draw

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has been in a deep slumber the last three weeks with seven catches for 58 yards and no touchdowns. Even his targets have dwindled to 11 in the three slates. He has a chance for a spark to light under him against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs are […]

Sam Reinhart Pots A Pair In Friday's Loss

Buffalo Sabres center Sam Reinhart was the only guy to score for the team in Friday's NHL Global Games matchup against Tampa, which ended in a 3-2 loss for Ralph Krueger's men. Reinhart also had a game-high seven shots in the game after he managed only eight shots on goal in total in the previous […]

Andrei Vasilevskiy Ends Losing Run In Stockholm

Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy returned to winning ways on Friday, stopping 20 of 22 shots in a 3-2 win against Buffalo in Stockholm. The Russian netminder had lost two starts in a row and three of his last four appearances. With Tampa not hitting the same heights as last year, Vasilevskiy has disappointed […]

Roll With Kenyan Drake As A Flex

Arizona Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake is in a peculiar situation in Week 10. All-Pro running back David Johnson (ankle) is back, and the team has been coy in discussing their plans for the backfield. The matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers isn't a great one, either, but Drake could be leaned upon heavily in […]

Victor Hedman Gets Close To 26 Minutes In Return To Lineup

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman made his first appearance of the month in Friday's NHL Global Games matchup against the Sabres, logging 25:47 on the ice and recording one assist in a 3-2 win. Hedman missed two games due to a lower-body injury before returning on home turf in Stockholm, Sweden. Nikita Kucherov, Tyler […]

Kyler Murray Ready to Fly

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has cooled off of late, but he has still remained a top-10 quarterback in fantasy the last five weeks. That's a little surprising considering that he had games of 220 yards and 104 yards passing, with no touchdowns in the stretch, and his rushing numbers have fallen off. This might […]

David Johnson Good To Go

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (ankle) practiced in full all week and is good to go for Week 10. It will be very interesting to see how the team uses him and Kenyan Drake together. Johnson is an elite back that can produce on the ground and through the air, and Drake is more […]

Chase Edmonds Out Again

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hamstring) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 10. Edmonds lost most of his roster viability with Kenyan Drake's acquisition, and he'll need one of the top two backs to go down for it to rekindle. Unless you're in a deeper league, Edmonds can be […]

Lamar Jackson Expected To Be 100% For Sunday

After battling an illness during the week, Lamar Jackson returned to practice on Friday and is expected to play on Sunday. Jackson missed Thursday's practice entirely, but returned in full on Friday, with Head Coach John Harbaugh noting that he "looked good". Jackson may be the overall QB1 this week in a matchup against the […]

Chris Herndon Expected to Make Season Debut in Week 10

Despite his questionable designation, Jets tight end Chris Herndon is expected to be active for the first time this season against the Giants on Sunday. Herndon technically suited up in Week 9, but was only there in case of emergency. Herndon served a four-game suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy, and then was […]

J.J. Redick To Suit Up For Friday’s Contest

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard J.J. Redick has been given the green light to take the floor for Friday’s game against the Toronto Raptors. In addition to being cleared, Redick will reportedly not have a minutes limit, which means that he should be right in line for his normal allotment of roughly 23-25 minutes. The […]

Dan Bailey A Solid Choice

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey is the second-highest-scoring kicker in fantasy over the last five weeks. He's 10-for-11 in field goal attempts and 16-for-17 in extra points during the stretch. He faces a Dallas Cowboys team smack in the middle of the pack in allowing opposing kickers to score. Opponents are 8-for-8 in field goal […]

Harry Giles Cleared To Make Season Debut Friday

The Sacramento Kings have ruled power forward/center Harry Giles active for Friday’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks. Giles, who has yet to take the floor this season, joins a crowded Kings frontcourt that includes Richaun Holmes, Dewayne Dedmon and Nemanja Bjelica, all of whom he’ll have to battle for minutes. Don’t expect Giles to see […]

Kyle Rudolph A Sneaky Fill-In

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph is the epitome of the boom-or-bust tight end in fantasy. He has done some booming of late, though, with touchdowns in two of the last three games. In fact, of his 20 reception on the season, 11 of them have come in the last three games. The Dallas Cowboys […]

Alexander Mattison Not An Option

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison remains a risky option in fantasy. He's averaging 4.7 yards per carry, but he has just one touchdown and doesn't contribute in the passing game. The Dallas Cowboys haven't been as good against the position as they were earlier in the season, and they're a midrange matchup for him. […]

Le'Veon Bell "Looks Good" For Sunday

Despite wearing a questionable tag for the Jets' Week 10 tilt with the Giants, Adam Gase said that "it looks good for Bell" for Sunday, per New York Post Jets beat reporter Brian Costello. The Jets did sign Josh Adams from the practice squad earlier in the week, which cast some doubt over Bell's status, […]

Enes Kanter To Continue Absence On Saturday

The Boston Celtics will once again be without center Enes Kanter for Saturday’s matchup with the San Antonio Spurs due to a left knee contusion that continues to hamper the big man. Kanter, who will miss his seventh straight game, has suited just once for Boston this season, with Daniel Theis and Robert Williams to […]

Tim Frazier Set To Miss Fourth Straight Game

Detroit Pistons point guard Tim Frazier has been officially ruled out for Friday’s game against the Indiana Pacers due to a strained right shoulder, once again leaving head coach Dwane Casey with a ragtag backcourt. Both Reggie Jackson (back) and Derrick Rose (hamstring) remain sidelined, forcing Luke Kennard, Bruce Brown Jr. and Langston Galloway to […]

Sterling Shepard Officially Ruled Out For Week 10

Shepard will remain on the bench for the fifth straight game after failing to clear concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets. Shepard had been trending in the right direction prior to Week 9, but was forced to re-enter concussion protocol prior to the Giants' loss to the Cowboys on Monday night. This […]

Latavius Murray A Flex Option In Week 10

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray will face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The 29-year-old compiled at least 150 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in both games without starter Alvin Kamara. Kamara said he wouldn't kind sharing more touches with Murray-and Coach Sean Payton seemed to endorse the idea. It's good news for […]

Derrick Jones Ruled Out For Friday’s Contest

Miami Heat small/power forward Derrick Jones will be back on the sidelines for Friday’s game versus the Los Angeles Lakers due to a left hip strain. Jones has been bothered by the hip ailment for a large part of the early portion of the year, having appeared in just two games off the bench following […]

Adam Thielen Officially Declared Out For SNF

After removing himself from the Vikings' Week 9 matchup, Thielen's status for this week was cloudy at best. He has officially been ruled out after not practicing on Friday. The hamstring injury that has bothered Thielen since Week 7 has not yet cleared up, and his status moving forward will remain murky until we begin […]

Alvin Kamara Good To Go For Matchup Against Atlanta

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) is good to go for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. It's a great welcome back to the lineup spot for Kamara, as the Falcons rank 21st in the league in rushing yards allowed. The 24-year-old has averaged 20 touches per game this year and has […]

Justise Winslow Officially Ruled Out for Friday

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (head) has been officially ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Winslow was placed in the NBA's concussion protocol last night, so it's not surprising to see him sitting out here. Duncan Robinson will draw the start, while Goran Dragic and Tyler Herro get extra minutes off […]
