Brad Marchand Shines in Home Opening Win

Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand was a force in the Bruins 3-0 win over the New Jersey Devils, tallying a goal and an assist. Marchand has increased his point totals every season since 2014, and if he keeps this form all season there is no reason to believe he wouldn't eclipse the 100-point plateau once […]

Leon Draisaitl Tallies Three Points in Win

Edmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl tallied three points in the third period of a 4-1 victory over the New York Rangers on Saturday afternoon. The dynamic duo of Draisaitl and Connor McDavid continues to carry the Oilers to their 5-0 record, as McDavid also chipped in two points. When line stacking the Oilers, be careful […]

With a handful of injuries, the door is once again open for some guys to exceed their respective values. In this piece, we're looking at the […]

Sammy Watkins Doubtful For Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is doubtful for the Week 6 encounter against the Texans. Watkins has been dealing with the ailment, so his designation for Sunday's tilt isn't much of a surprise. With Tyreek Hill (shoulder) potentially returning, look for him to be involved in some capacity along with Mecole Hardman […]

Mark Andrews Expected To See The Field In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (shoulder) will likely suit up against Cincinnati in Week 6. After dealing with a foot ailment, his presence on the injury report has been the norm over the last few weeks. With Marquise Brown (ankle) unlikely to play on Sunday, the door is open for Andrews to get plenty […]

Hunter Henry Likely To Return On Sunday Night

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) could potentially return against the Steelers in Week 6. Henry hasn't seen the field since opening week, and though he practiced sparingly on Wednesday and Thursday, he was able to work out in full on Friday. With the Chargers playing on Sunday night, fantasy managers may want […]

George Kittle Expected To Play Against Rams

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) is expected to play against the Rams. Kittle was a late addition to the injury report after practicing in a limited fashion on Friday. He will test the ailment during pregame warmups, but unless he has a setback, he should be good to go. Keep him rolling […]

Kenny Stills May Play Against Kansas City

Houston Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills (hamstring) may play against the Chiefs on Sunday. Stills has been battling the ailment for the last few weeks, and while he has a decent shot at suiting up in Week 6, the former Dolphin isn't expected to see a full workload. Fantasy managers should keep him benched in […]

Cardinals Still Hoping David Johnson Plays

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (back) still has a shot at playing against the Falcons. While Johnson wasn't able to practice on Wednesday or Thursday, he did suit up on Friday to participate in a limited capacity. If he is out, Chase Edmonds will handle the bulk of the carries out of the backfield, […]

Marquise Brown Expected To Sit In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) isn't expected to play against Cincinnati in Week 6. Hollywood hasn't practiced all week, and with his absence, the door will be open for extra looks for tight end Mark Andrews and wide receiver Willie Snead against a horrendous Bengals Defense.

Alvin Kamara Likely To Play

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is likely to play against the Jaguars. After practicing in a limited capacity on Thursday, while alarming fantasy managers after being held out on Friday, the 24-year-old should be good to go for the Week 6 showdown with Jacksonville. Kamara has a favorable matchup on Sunday, with […]

Todd Gurley Officially Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) will not play against San Francisco. Gurley suffered a thigh contusion during the Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, and while there was hope that the veteran would play, he will now watch from the sidelines in Week 6. Look for Malcolm Brown to pick up […]

Rodney Hood Will Sit Out Against Suns

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Rodney Hood (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's preseason game against the Phoenix Suns. He is dealing with back spasms, so the team is likely just being cautious here. Hood will battle Kent Bazemore for playing time in Portland. He'll be worth a look in deeper leagues, but that's about […]
