Tyrone Tracy Jr. Suffers Low-Ankle Sprain

New York Giants rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle) was carted off the field at practice on Tuesday.

The fifth-round pick out of Purdue […]

Manny Machado Returns To The Lineup

When Is J.J. McCarthy Coming Back? Fantasy Football Injury Return Update

Minnesota Vikings rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy was the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. The Vikings lost Kirk Cousins in free agency, leaving them without a starting-caliber quarterback on the roster.

James Paxton Dealing With Partially Torn Calf

Boston Red Sox left-hander James Paxton (calf) has a partially torn right calf and is running out of time to be able to pitch again this year for the Red Sox. Given Paxton's long history of injuries and reputation as a slow healer, it would be almost a miracle to see him back in the […]

Should I Draft Chase Brown? Fantasy Football Draft Outlook for 2024

Joe Mixon is out of Cincinnati. And with his departure, 309 touches are up for grabs. Opposite of the rest of the Zac Taylor era, there won't be one primary runner in the Bengals' backfield.

Updated Wide Receiver Half-PPR Fantasy Football Rankings (2024)

The 2024 fantasy football season is right around the corner, and the wide receiver spot has never been deeper. As the NFL continues to become pass-happier with each season, many fantasy managers have shifted toward a "Zero-RB" approach. However, there are still mid-round and late-round wide receiver sleepers to target, and we're here to help […]

Taysom Hill Could Play Up To Five Positions In 2024

The expectation is that New Orleans Saints super utility man Taysom Hill could play up to five positions this year -- fullback, running back, quarterback, tight end and wide receiver. It doesn't mean he'll play all those positions, but the Saints are keeping their options open. They want to get him traditional tailback/fullback work and […]

Saints Think They Can Get Alvin Kamara Back To Peak Performance

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamar's contract impasse hasn't affected his preparation for the 2024 season, and the Saints believe he can regain his peak performance. Kamara is still looking for his first 1,000-yard rushing season. "He's really embraced the change in the offense," head coach Dennis Allen said. "Fits his running style." The […]

Derek Carr Will Be Asked To Make Fewer Adjustments

The New Orleans Saints' goal for offensive Klint Kubiak this year is to play faster and simplify things. A big concern, at least on paper, is an inexperienced offensive line. Offensive tackles Trevor Penning and Taliese Fuaga and left guard Nick Saldiveri have a combined six NFL starts. Quarterback Derek Carr will be asked to […]
