Devin Funchess Has Surgery, Will Go On IR

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich confirmed that wide receiver Devin Funchess (collarbone) had surgery to fix his broken collarbone and will go on Injured Reserve. Funchess broke his collarbone in the Week 1 overtime loss to the Chargers, but he could return later this season. T.Y. Hilton is quarterback Jacoby Brissett's clear No. 1 […]

Chris Godwin Scores On Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin finished with three receptions for 53 yards and a touchdown during the Week 1 matchup with San Francisco. With Mike Evans, who finished with just two receptions for 28 yards, likely dealing with the lingering effects of the flu that almost didn’t allow him to play, Godwin was […]

Mike Evans Quiet In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans was quiet during the Week 1 matchup with the 49ers. Evans, who was battling the flu and was a potential scratch on Sunday, managed to suit up but finished with just 28 yards on two receptions (five targets). With a few more days of rest coming up to […]

Peyton Barber Plays Second Fiddle On Sunday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber ran for just 33 yards on eight carries against the 49ers Defense on Sunday. As expected, Barber saw less action than Ronald Jones II, who finished with 75 yards on 13 attempts while Dare Ogunbowale served in a James White type role by pulling in four receptions for […]

Michael Crabtree Expected To Be Active In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury expects wide receiver Michael Crabtree to play in Week 2 against the Ravens. Arizona recently signed the veteran wideout, but he was a healthy scratch in the season opener while he continued to learn the playbook. If active, Crabtree figures to be fourth on the receiver depth chart, at […]

John Ross (WR, CIN) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: John Ross was largely overlooked as a fantasy asset this offseason, despite Cincinnati's thin wide receiver depth chart and a large potential workload with A.J. Green on the sidelines. Since being selected ninth overall in the 2017 NFL Draft, Ross has been […]

Matthew Stafford (QB, DET) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Last week's game against the Cardinals could be a predictor of future performance for Matthew Stafford. Stafford has thrown for over 4,200 yards in every season since 2011, except last season's downtrodden performance where he finished with 3,777 yards and 21 touchdowns. This season, […]

Ronald Jones II Leads Rushing Attack

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II led the team in rushing against the 49ers Defense, finishing the day with 75 yards on 13 carries. As expected, the team bolstered a committee approach on Sunday, with quasi-backup Peyton Barber running for 33 yards on eight carries and Dare Ogunbowale hauling in four receptions (five […]

Patriots Release Lance Kendricks

The New England Patriots waived tight end Lance Kendricks on Monday, according to a source. Kendricks was suspended for Week 1 but will now look for work elsewhere. He caught 19 passes for 170 yards and a touchdown over a full season with Green Bay in 2018. Even if Kendricks resurfaces elsewhere, he's unlikely to […]

Jameis Winston Struggles In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston struggled during the Week 1 encounter against San Francisco. Winston threw for 194 yards and a touchdown, but tossed three interceptions, with two of them being returned for scores by the smothering 49ers Defense. With Bruce Arians now calling the shots in Tampa, Winston’s fantasy expectations were high coming […]

C.J. Mosley, Quinnen Williams Unlikely To Practice Wednesday

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin) and rookie defensive tackle Quinnen Williams (ankle) are unlikely to practice on Wednesday. Williams was seen at the team's facility in a walking boot, while Mosley will undergo an MRI exam on Monday. Mosley is one of the best all-around linebackers in […]

Corey Clement Doesn't Log an Offensive Stat in Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement did not log an offensive stat in a Week 1 victory over Washington. Darren Sproles and Miles Sanders led the Eagles backfield, with Jordan Howard mixing in as well, but Clement did not get his hands on the ball at all. Clement was nursing a knee injury in the […]

Ravens Defense Loses Jimmy Smith For Multiple Weeks

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that veteran cornerback Jimmy Smith (knee) has a Grade 2 MCL sprain and will miss "multiple weeks." There's a possibility that Smith will go on the Injured Reserve with a designation to return later this year. Smith's injury is a hit to a strong Ravens Defense, but they […]

Sterling Shepard May Have Concussion

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that wide receiver Sterling Shepard (head) "may be dealing with a concussion." The team will likely put him through the concussion protocol this week, and we won't have an idea of whether he'll suit up in Week 2 against the Bills until his practice status is released […]

Juju Smith-Schuster Injury Isn't Expected To Be Serious

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (toe) is expected to be healthy for the team's Week 2 contest against the Seattle Seahawks. The star wideout had initially been pulled from Sunday night's blowout loss to the New England Patriots thanks to a toe injury. However, as the MRI results came back negative, there shouldn't be a […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for 9/9/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

There were some big games in Sunday of Week One and the schedule wraps up with a pair of Monday night games. Nine of the 26 active teams scored at least 30 points while a dozen quarterbacks threw for at least 300 yards and nine quarterbacks threw for at least three touchdowns. Five running backs […]

Steelers Defense May Be Without Joe Haden In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (shoulder) suffered a sprained AC joint in the Week 1 loss to the Patriots on Sunday night, according to a source. The Patriots walked all over Pittsburgh's defense in the regular season opener, and losing Haden in the secondary would be even more bad news heading into the Week 2 […]

Joe Mixon Receives Good News

Updating a previous report, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) had MRI results come back negative Monday, according to a source. He might have a shot to play in Week 2 against the San Francisco 49ers, but no extended absence is expected. Mixon is probably 50-50 to play next week. Running back Giovani Bernard […]

Chris Lindstrom Out Eight Weeks

Updating a previous report, Atlanta Falcons rookie right guard Chris Lindstrom (foot) is expected to be in a boot for around eight weeks after he broke a small bone in his foot in Week 1 against the Vikings, according to a source. He'll likely head to Injured Reserve but could return later this year. Losing […]

Dante Pettis Might Be In Doghouse

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis played just two snaps in Week 1’s victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Pettis was a notable bust on Sunday (one catch, seven yards) but his underlying usage is disastrous. The second-year pro dealt with a groin injury in practice but head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed he was […]

Joe Mixon Believed To Have Sprain

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) will have tests done on his ankle, but it is just believed to be a sprain. He had a little swelling, but early reports are optimistic. Running back Giovani Bernard pitched in seven rushes for 21 yards and caught two balls for 42 yards. Mixon's prognosis sounds good, […]

Seahawks Defense Not Counting On Ziggy Ansah For Week 2

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said they are taking it day-to-day with defensive end Ziggy Ansah (groin, shoulder), but the team isn't exactly counting on Ansah to suit up in Week 2 against the Steelers. The Seahawks aren't rushing the injury-prone pass-rusher back, although his presence on the defensive line would be an added […]

Chris Lindstrom May Have Broken Foot

The Atlanta Falcons fear that rookie right guard Chris Lindstrom (foot) suffered a broken foot in the Week 1 loss to the Vikings, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Lindstrom left the stadium in a walking boot and will undergo more tests on Monday. The 14th overall pick was expected to be a starter all […]

Greg Robinson Unlikely To Be Suspended

Cleveland Browns left tackle Greg Robinson, who was ejected in Week 1 for kicking Titans safety Kenny Vaccaro in the head, is facing a fine but is unlikely to be suspended, according to a source. Without Robinson in the game, Cleveland's pass protection struggled mightily and quarterback Baker Mayfield was sacked five times, including one […]

Derrius Guice Likely Sidelined

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice (knee) had an MRI on his non-repaired knee Monday, and he's likely to miss some time. The hope is he can avoid surgery. He only gained 18 yards on 10 carries in Week 1. Running back Adrian Peterson was a healthy scratch last week, and he should step in […]

T.J. Watt, Maurkice Pouncey Injured Sunday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (hip) and center Maurkice Pouncey (ankle) both left the game in the fourth quarter of the Week 1 loss to the Patriots on Sunday night and did not return. Watt had two tackles but also hit Tom Brady three times. Pouncey seemed OK after the game and expects to play […]

Devin White Dealing With Tonsilitis

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie linebacker Devin White (illness) has been dealing with tonsilitis and not the flu bug, according to head coach Bruce Arians. White played through the illness in his NFL debut against the 49ers in Week 1 and finished with five solo tackles. White is an incredibly talented linebacker and should make noise […]

Jaguars Trade For Joshua Dobbs

The Jacksonville Jaguars are acquiring quarterback Joshua Dobbs from the Steelers on Monday in exchange for a 2020 fifth-round pick, according to sources. Dobbs will back up Gardner Minshew with Nick Foles (collarbone) on Injured Reserve for half the season. The 24-year-old attempted only 12 passes for 43 yards and one interception in five games […]
