Mikhail Sergachev Out On Thursday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Mikhail Sergachev (lower body) won't play on Thursday against the Golden Knights. The Russian blue-liner has to skip a clash against the reigning Stanley Cup champions due to a lower-body injury sustained in the previous game versus St. Louis. He is expected to return after one or two games, so luckily […]

Happy holidays RotoBallers! Christmas Day NBA games are right around the corner and All-Star voting has already begun. 'Tis the season to vote your home team's roster and snub the superstars that everyone hates from the rival team. Well, as long as that karma doesn't come back to haunt your fantasy team. Welcome back to […]

Cale Makar A Game-Time Decision Thursday

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar (lower body) is considered a game-time decision for Thursday's clash with the Senators. A lower-body injury has kept Makar out of action for three games, but it looks like he could be back on Thursday. It's been business as usual for Makar in 2023-24 as one of the premier blue-liners […]

Jeff Skinner, Jordan Greenway On Track To Return For Sabres Thursday

Buffalo Sabres wingers Jeff Skinner (upper body) and Jordan Greenway (upper body) are poised to return to the lineup for Thursday's matchup against Toronto. Both players have been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of the clash. Greenway has been absent for nine games, while Skinner has missed the last three. The latter is definitely the […]

Matt Gay Back At Practice Thursday

Indianapolis Colts kicker Matt Gay (hip) missed Wednesday's practice with a right-hip injury but was back on the practice field in a limited fashion on Thursday, giving him a chance to play on Sunday versus the Atlanta Falcons. As long as Gay doesn't suffer a setback with his hip in Friday's practice, the 29-year-old should […]

Zack Moss Trending In The Wrong Direction

Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (forearm) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Moss injured his forearm in the Week 15 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers last Saturday and is trending towards missing this Sunday's contest on the road in Atlanta against the Falcons. He has one more day on […]

Michael Pittman Jr. On The Right Track In Week 16

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. (concussion, shoulder) was able to put in a full practice on Thursday following a limited session he had on Wednesday. Pittman is in the league's concussion protocol after taking a hard hit in last Saturday's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it looks like he's on his way […]

Sean Durzi Back In Action Thursday

Arizona Coyotes defenseman Sean Durzi (lower body) is ready to rejoin the action Thursday against San Jose. The versatile rearguard has missed the past five games with a lower-body issue. Durzi has produced 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in 25 games during his first year in the desert, adding 53 blocks on the defensive […]

Dak Prescott A Solid Choice Despite A Tough Matchup In Week 16

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a solid fantasy option in Week 16 lineups despite a difficult matchup against the Miami Dolphins on the road. Prescott has been the overall fantasy QB2 since Week 8, putting up five top-three fantasy performances in that span. He struggled last week though, putting up just seven fantasy points […]

Mason McTavish Expected To Return On Thursday

Anaheim Ducks forward Mason McTavish (upper body) looks to be on track to return to the lineup Thursday against the Flames. Eric Stephens of The Athletic has noted that there is a "strong chance" McTavish returns from a seven-game absence in the matchup. McTavish was in impressive form through the first few weeks of the […]

Jamie Drysdale Set To Return On Thursday

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Jamie Drysdale (lower body) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is expected to rejoin the lineup Thursday versus Calgary. The 21-year-old has been sidelined for 29 games. He posted two assists in two games at the start of the season before hitting the shelf for two months. Urho Vaakanainen will likely […]

Chargers Defense Not A Fantasy Option In Week 16

The Los Angeles Chargers defense is not a starting fantasy option in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. The Chargers are coming off a game where they allowed 63 points to a Raiders team that had been shut out the week before. Now taking on an actually good offense in the Buffalo Bills, […]

Cameron Dicker Not A Strong Starting Option In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker is not a strong starting option in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Dicker only attempted (and made) three extra points in a Week 15 loss. With the Chargers offense struggling in all aspects with Easton Stick under center and Keenan Allen (heel) out for another game, […]

Gerald Everett Has A Decent Week 16 Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett has seen his fantasy arrow pointing up lately and has a decent matchup in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Everett has been the fantasy TE13 in the past four weeks, even with Easton Stick in there for two of those games. The Bills have allowed […]

Jalen Guyton Unlikely To Be Fantasy Relevant In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Guyton is unlikely to be a fantasy relevant option in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Guyton has nine catches all season and will work behind Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston on an offense led by Easton Stick. Guyton has the speed to break off a long […]

Quentin Johnston Not Worth A Start In Most Lineups In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston is not worth a starting spot in most fantasy lineups in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Johnston hasn't done much all season, but he's been even more of an afterthought in the passing game when Joshua Palmer is active. With Keenan Allen (heel) out, […]

Joshua Palmer Has Some Upside Despite A Tough Week 16 Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer has some fantasy upside in Week 16 despite a tough matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Making the matchup tougher is the fact that quarterback Easton Stick will be leading the Los Angeles offense instead of Justin Herbert, but still someone has to catch his passes, and Palmer seems […]

Isaiah Spiller Could Repeat A Big Role In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers running back Isaiah Spiller could have a big role again in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Spiller led the Chargers backfield in Week 15, picking up 50 yards on 16 carries. It was hard to tell what the real plan was as the Chargers had no chance as early […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo Off Fantasy Radar In Week 16

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo saw at least five targets in three games from Week 12 to Week 14, but he earned just three targets in Week 15 against the Houston Texans. The second-year pro has not established himself on the fantasy radar this season, meaning there's no reason to start him against the […]

Joshua Kelley Unlikely To Do Much In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers running back Joshua Kelley is unlikely to do much in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Kelley was an afterthought in Week 15, where Isaiah Spiller led the backfield and Austin Ekeler got his work in as well. Kelley ended up with five carries for 22 yards and one catch […]

Austin Ekeler A Risky Choice In Week 16

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is a risky fantasy option in Week 16 lineups. The flailing Chargers will face the Buffalo Bills, who need a win to keep up in the AFC playoff race. Last week, Ekeler only played 40% of the team's offensive snaps, turning nine touches into 38 total yards. With […]

Treylon Burks Could See More Looks In Week 16

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks showed signs of life last week against the Houston Texans, posting three receptions for 62 yards. In Week 16, he'll face a Seattle Seahawks defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to wideouts. Additionally, Nick Westbrook Ikhine (hand) has been placed on Injured Reserve, meaning his […]

DeAndre Hopkins Has Uncertain Outlook For Week 16

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has had a ton of upside in games with Will Levis (ankle), but Levis might be out against the Seattle Seahawks due to a high-ankle sprain. In six games with Ryan Tannehill, Hopkins averaged 10.8 PPR points per game. In eight games with Levis, he has averaged 15.4 PPR […]

Easton Stick Not Worth Starting In Most Week 16 Lineups

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Easton Stick isn't worth starting in most formats for a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Stick was able to put up a decent fantasy performance last week thanks to some garbage time yardage, but he's been very bad on the field and the Bills defense has been very good […]

Tyjae Spears An RB3/Flex Option Against Seattle

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has flashed upside during his rookie season, but Derrick Henry has remained the primary back for the team in 2023. However, Henry is coming off one of the worst performances of his career, posting 15 total yards on 20 touches. With Henry showing clear signs of regression and the […]

Ty Johnson Questionable To Face Chargers

Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson (shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is officially listed as questionable to play on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16. Johnson injured his shoulder in the Week 15 blowout win over the Dallas Cowboys and now might have to miss a game. The […]

Rashee Rice - Week 16 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 ANALYSIS: Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice caught all nine of his targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in the Week 15 win over the New England Patriots. The rookie has had an excellent season so far, totaling 68 catches for 754 yards […]

Derrick Henry In Bounce-Back Spot Against Seahawks

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry had one of the worst games of his career last week, posting just 15 total yards on 20 touches. The Titans' offensive line was dominated against the Houston Texans, and there was little running room for the 240-pound back to get things going. In Week 16, he'll face a […]

D'Onta Foreman Takes Personal Day Thursday

Chicago Bears running back D'Onta Foreman did not practice with the team on Thursday due to a personal issue. The Bears have another day of practice on Friday before the final designations are listed for Week 16 on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. As long as Foreman returns on Friday, he should be available to […]
