Homestead NASCAR Practice Speeds, Lap Averages, and Notes

The NASCAR Cup Series ran a single practice session at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Saturday morning in preparation for the upcoming Straight Talk Wireless 400 on Sunday afternoon. The 37-car field was split into two groups for this practice session. Below you'll find the two practice groups, key notes from the practice session and the practice […]

Brian Thomas Jr. A Clear Start Despite Tough Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is too talented to consider benching despite a tough matchup with the Green Bay Packers. The rookie receiver may be shadowed by Jaire Alexander in Week 8, but his ability to rattle off a long touchdown at any moment is too tantalizing for fantasy managers to pass up. […]

Darnell Mooney A WR3 Option With A Solid Floor

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney garnered eight targets last week, the fifth time in seven games that he's totaled six or more looks in a contest. With a 22.84% target share and 31.77% of the team's total air yards, the 26-year-old has a solid role in this offense, giving him a decent weekly floor […]

Tyler Boyd - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5 ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd will presumably step into the WR2 role now that DeAndre Hopkins has departed for the Kansas City Chiefs. This doesn't mean that he's worth starting in fantasy football. None of the Titans' receivers this year have been trustworthy as starts in any […]

Andrei Iosivas - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5 ANALYSIS: Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas could have a decent role if fellow WR Tee Higgins (quad) isn't able to play in Week 8, but in the two games Higgins missed to start the season, Iosivas had just five receptions for 33 yards. He did score touchdowns, but […]

Josh Downs Healthy But QB Play A Limiting Factor In Week 8

After missing practice Wednesday, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (toe) practiced in full Thursday and Friday, carrying no injury designation heading into the weekend. Still, with Anthony Richardson at quarterback, the team's pass catchers have limited upside as Richardson has a 47.4% completion rate and is averaging a meager 178 yards passing per game […]

Tank Bigsby High Upside Play Once Again In Week 8

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby may have the opportunity to dominate touches again in Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers defense has been great against the pass, but somewhat weak against the run, meaning as long as Travis Etienne Jr. (a game-time decision with a hamstring injury) misses out again, Bigsby […]

Trevor Lawrence Limited Upside Against Packers

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has looked better of late but might struggle against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Lawrence has averaged just under 15 fantasy points per game this season, which should be his expected output against Jaire Alexander and the stout Packers secondary. Evan Engram, Brian Thomas Jr., and Christian Kirk have […]

Dalvin Cook Ready To Play, Could Suit Up In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys running back Dalvin Cook is "ready" and "in position" to play, head coach Mike McCarthy told the media. Executive vice president Stephen Jones also noted that coaches "have been talking to us about how it's about time for him to get his opportunity" as Cook continues to impress in his role on the […]

Foyesade Oluokun Questionable To Face Packers

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Foyesade Oluokun (foot) was limited in practice all week long and is officially questionable to play against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Oluokun is still on injured reserve, so he'd need to be activated by 4 p.m. Saturday in order to be eligible for this weekend's clash with Green Bay. The […]

Tommy Tremble Questionable To Face Broncos

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble (back) upgraded to a full participant in practice on Friday. However, he is still listed as questionable to face the Denver Broncos in Week 8. The 24-year-old was Carolina's top tight end when healthy, but he only caught seven passes through parts of four games. Since his last appearance […]

Haason Reddick Officially Signs New One-Year Deal

New York Jets pass rusher Haason Reddick has officially signed his adjusted one-year contract and will make his team debut on Sunday against the New England Patriots, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles last offseason, Reddick refused to play a snap for the Jets without an adjusted deal in place. While […]

Kalif Raymond Looks To Step Up In Teammate's Absence

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond is projected to have an increased role over the next two weeks as teammate Jameson Williams serves a suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing substance policy. Raymond had already started to see an uptick in production with Williams on the field, catching seven passes for 112 yards and one […]

Jake Moody Officially Declared Out For Week 8

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (right ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. This hardly comes as a surprise given that Moody missed all three practices this week and hasn't played since initially suffering the injury in Week 5. Injuries to Moody and Matthew Wright have led the 49ers […]

Jordan Mason Cleared To Play In Week 8

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) practiced in a full capacity on Friday. He has been removed from the final injury report and will play against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 8. Although Mason hasn't missed a game yet this season, the shoulder injury has hindered him ever since Week 6 against the […]

Pittsburgh Penguins rookie goaltender Joel Blomqvist stopped 46 out of the 50 shots he faced on Friday evening in their loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
