Tyler Allgeier A Risky RB3 In Week 18
Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier should be viewed as a risky RB3 heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Last weekend Allgeier saw just three attempts during their overtime loss to the Washington Commanders. However, during Weeks 13 through 16, Allgeier ran the ball an average of ten times per game. […]

Noah Clowney Questionable For Saturday Night
Brooklyn Nets forward Noah Clowney (hip) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with the 76ers. The 20-year-old took a spill in Wednesday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors, resulting in a hip contusion, and he wasn't available for Thursday's narrow win over the Milwaukee Bucks. With Cameron Johnson (ankle) doubtful and Cam Thomas (hamstring) questionable, Clowney could […]

According to the team, the Carolina Panthers have activated running back Miles Sanders (ankle) off the injured reserve.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Miami Heat would like to trade forward Jimmy Butler "as soon as possible." The multi-time All-Star is away from the team while serving a seven-game suspension.

Juju Smith-Schuster Could Have Larger Role In Season Finale
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will take on the Denver Broncos in Week 18. Smith-Schuster appeared to be the Chiefs WR1 in the wake of Rashee Rice's injury, but then he also lost time to injury. By the time he returned, Kansas City had acquired DeAndre Hopkins, and Xavier Worthy had become more […]

Amari Cooper Downgraded To Out For Week 18
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Buffalo Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper (personal) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots due to a personal issue.

DeAndre Hopkins With Incentives In Week 18
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will face the Denver Broncos on the road in Week 18. In the past three weeks, Hopkins has taken a backseat as Xavier Worthy has emerged as the team's WR1. The Chiefs have already clinched the top seed in the AFC, so they have nothing to play for […]

Jason Sanders A Sneaky Start For Week 18
Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has been the hottest kicker in all football throughout the second half of the season. He has made 25 straight field goals and is the fifth-ranked kicker in fantasy football. Sanders and the Dolphins will travel to East Rutherford to take on the New York Jets in Week 18. With […]

Free-agent infielder Andrew Velazquez signed a minor-league deal that includes an invitation to major-league spring training with the New York Yankees on Friday.

Ty Johnson Could Be More Involved Against Patriots
Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson could have a much bigger role in the backfield on Sunday in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival New England Patriots with the team expected to pull their starters early on.

Keon Coleman A Volatile Play With Bills Resting Starters On Sunday
Buffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman will be an extremely volatile option for fantasy managers on Sunday in the team's Week 18 regular-season finale versus the division-rival New England Patriots. The Bills are already locked into the No. 2 seed in the AFC for the postseason, so their starters might only play one offensive […]

Thatcher Demko Joining Team For Five-Game Road Trip
Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko (back) is expected to travel with the team for its five-game road trip. Demko left Thursday's game against Seattle due to back spasms and was not in the lineup when Vancouver faced Nashville on Friday night. However, it seems Demko will not be out long-term. The American netminder has put […]

Tyler Huntley A Shaky QB2 In Week 18
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tyler Huntley will seemingly get the start for the second straight game in Week 18, with Tua Tagovailoa (hip) being listed as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Carson Steele is set for an expanded role on Sunday in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Denver Broncos.

Pyotr Kochetkov Starts Against Wild On Saturday
Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov will work in the crease against Minnesota on Saturday. The Hurricanes go with their strongest option in net for the first leg of a back-to-back, with Dustin Tokarski likely getting the nod for Sunday's matchup against Pittsburgh. Kochetkov has been inconsistent since the start of last month, but he still […]

Jamison Crowder Has Minimal Upside In Regular-Season Finale
Despite the Washington Commanders offense excelling this year under impressive rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, veteran wide receiver Jamison Crowder hasn't made much noise, even with Noah Brown (kidney) recently suffering a season-ending injury. That probably won't change in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys and their beat up defense. […]

Joseph Woll In Maple Leafs Net On Saturday
Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Joseph Woll will start the first leg of a back-to-back against Boston on Saturday. Woll will try to extend his winning streak to four games.

Jalen Coker Looking To Finish Rookie Season On A High Note
Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Jalen Coker has mainly been a stash candidate in dynasty/keeper fantasy leagues in his first season in the NFL. He heads into the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Atlanta Falcons with only 25 catches for 416 yards and two touchdowns on 39 targets over 10 games […]

Scott Wedgewood Unavailable On Saturday
Colorado Avalanche goaltender Scott Wedgewood (lower body) will be out on Saturday against Montreal and faces a multi-game absence.

"He's still getting evaluated, so I'm guessing it's going to be week to week," Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar said on Friday. Wedgewood, who […]

Marquise Brown Best Left On Benches In Week 18
It will be hard to trust Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown in fantasy lineups in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday in Denver against the division-rival Denver Broncos, mainly because of the fact that quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is being rested for the playoffs. Additionally, Hollywood will be facing a top-five defense […]

De'Von Achane Firmly In RB1 Territory In Bounce-Back Opportunity
Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane will be looking to bounce back as a strong RB1 for fantasy managers in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival New York Jets in a must-win game for Miami. Achane put up a dud for fantasy managers with a 10-carry, 25-yard performance in the win […]

Cade York A Borderline Starting Kicking Option For Saturday
Cincinnati Bengals kicker Cade York will be a borderline starting kicking option for fantasy managers with the Bengals trying to keep their faint playoff hopes alive with a win on Saturday against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in the Week 18 regular-season finale. The 23-year-old missed a 33-yarder in overtime last Saturday in […]

Auston Matthews Returns To Action On Saturday
Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews (upper body) will return to the lineup on Saturday against Boston.

Matthews is just short of averaging a point per game for the season, sitting on […]

Cam Little A Solid Kicking Option In Week 18
Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little should have at least a decent outing in the final week of the season against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie kicker has had a solid season overall and will look to finish his first season strong. Along with many other players on the team, this game is more about auditioning […]
