Rashaan Evans Released By Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Rashaan Evans has been released by the organization on Friday. It appears the 27-year-old asked for his release from the practice squad. The former first round pick shouldn't have any issues finding a new home. He recorded 159 tackles and two sacks through 17 games with the Atlanta Falcons last season. His […]

Jonathan Mingo - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jonathan Mingo turned in a quiet debut last week, catching just two of his five targets for 17 yards in a 24-10 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. He will look for a bigger outing against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night in Week 2. The Saints were tough on fantasy […]

Joe Burrow - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (calf) had a rough start to the 2023-24 campaign. During the Week 1 loss to the Cleveland Browns, the signal-caller threw for 82 yards off an uncharacteristic 14-for-31 passing. But Burrow will look to bounce back in Week 2 for another AFC North showdown, this time with Baltimore. He has […]

Shohei Ohtani Remains Out Friday

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (oblique, elbow) is still out of the lineup Friday night against the Detroit Tigers. Ohtani last played on Sept. 3 in Oakland and it's looking increasingly likely that he may not make it back this season. There has been no word that the Angels plan to shut him […]

Chuba Hubbard - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard saw a decent workload for a backup running back in Week 1, taking nine carries for 60 yards and adding another nine yards on two catches. He will look for another productive game in Week 2 against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. The Saints allowed fantasy backs […]

AJ Dillon - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will go on the road to take on the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. The 25-year-old tallied 15 touches last weekend but gained a total of just 36 yards and averaged 1.5 yards per carry. It was a far cry from what Dillon had done to end the year […]

Ricky Stenhouse Facing Elimination Heading Into Bristol

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. will start 25th in Saturday's Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway. With Saturday marking the end of the first round of the playoffs, Stenhouse finds himself in a must-win situation heading into Thunder Valley. Given his struggles on short tracks throughout his career, a victory will be a tall […]

Zay Flowers - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers showed that he built some early chemistry with Lamar Jackson in Week 1. One aspect that went in his favor against the Texans was the fact that Mark Andrews didn't play. Heading into Week 2, Andrews is trending in the direction of playing which would mean his safety blanket […]

Miles Sanders - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders finished Week 1 with 72 rushing yards and a fumble on 18 carries. He will face off against the New Orleans Saints at home on Monday night in Week 2. Sanders will take on a Saints defense that held Derrick Henry to 63 rushing yards on 15 carries in […]

Brock Purdy - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy completed 65.5% of his 29 attempts for 220 yards and two touchdowns in a 30-7 Week 1 win at the Pittsburgh Steelers. Purdy, who still hasn't lost a game in which he has taken the majority of snaps, did not throw any interceptions in the contest and even rushed […]

Jordan Love - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love will travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons in Week 2. The 24-year-old had an impressive showing in Green Bay's regular-season opener and threw three touchdowns without his top option Christian Watson (hamstring). Watson is questionable again this week and could be limited if active, but Love has […]

Austin Cindric's Short Track Woes Will Likely Continue

Although he did have a memorable finish in the 2021 Xfinity night race at Bristol with A.J. Allmendinger when both drivers crashed across the finish line while battling for the win, don't expect Austin Cindric to contend in the Cup night race Saturday. Not only has this been the slowest season for Team Penske in […]

Alex Bowman Unlikely To Contend At Bristol

While his Hendrick teammates are all likely to deliver strong performances in the Bristol night race Saturday night, Alex Bowman is unlikely to do the same. Unlike Chase Elliott, who has picked up speed this year in recent weeks after his injury, Bowman has been unable to duplicate that. Bowman ranked second in speed with […]

Chase Elliott's Improved Speed May Bode Well For Bristol

Despite missing the driver's playoffs, Chase Elliott has his mojo back in recent weeks. He now ranks 8th in speed this year with a speed percentile of 68.37%, having recently overtaken teammate Alex Bowman to become the third-fastest Hendrick driver this year. In the last five races, he ranks 5th in speed with a speed […]

Indianapolis Colts Defense A Worthy Start In Week 2

The Indianapolis Colts defense made out surprisingly well in Week 1 against a high-powered Jacksonville Jaguars offense, finishing in the top 10 on the week with 11 total fantasy points. Despite letting up 31 points and 341 total yards, they remained opportunistic, forcing two turnovers and two sacks. Indy's defense will face a Texans offense […]

Michael McDowell Likely Needs Win To Advance

Although Michael McDowell made the playoffs and earned his best short track qualifying performance ever for Saturday night's Bristol race, he almost certainly won't advance to the Round of 12. He ranks last in the playoffs 40 points below the cutline, which means he needs a win. Stage points might help as well. However, short […]

Bubba Wallace Needs Some Help To Advance

Bubba Wallace enters Saturday night's Bristol race 19 points beneath the playoff cutline after blowing a tire and hitting the wall at Kansas last weekend while running second. Unfortunately, having bad luck at his best track means he likely needs a great finish at a track that has historically been not so good. In eight […]

Pat Freiermuth Upgraded To Full Practice Participant

After being listed as limited in Thursday's practice, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (chest) was able to put in a full practice on Friday. Freiermuth suffered a chest injury in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, but it doesn't appear to be very serious and he should be available to play […]

Joey Logano In Danger Of Missing Round Of 12

Joey Logano ranks 11th in points, a mere 12 points above the playoff cutline entering Saturday's Bristol night race. Despite winning last year's championship, his prospects of advancing look not that certain. In last year's race, he finished 27th after a suspension failure and only ranked 16th in speed. Although he did win the inaugural […]

Ryan Blaney A Risky Play At Bristol

On Friday afternoon, Ryan Blaney qualified 11th for the Brass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway. Although he generally performs well at short tracks, the second-generation star has been inconsistent throughout his Cup career on Bristol's concrete track. In his 13 starts on the concrete, he has five top 10s, but an average […]

Diontae Johnson Misses Another Day Of Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day this week on Friday and isn't expected to play on Monday night in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns after injuring his hamstring in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. With Johnson potentially out for up to a […]

Lamar Jackson - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson turned in a poor performance in his first action of the season. After missing all three preseason games, Jackson showed some rust. Now, he and the Ravens go up against a Bengals squad that was embarrassed by the Browns. The star quarterback is 6-2 against Cincinnati in his career and […]

Christopher Bell Wins Pole For The Third Straight Race

Christopher Bell qualified P1 for Saturday's Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol, marking the third consecutive race where the No. 20 car will start up front. Although it's generally advised to avoid playing Bell when he's towards the front, this week he is a must-start. In the eight short track races that have taken […]

John Metchie III Set To Make NFL Debut Sunday

Houston Texans wide receiver John Metchie III (hamstring) was upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday and was removed from the Week 2 injury report as a result. After missing all of his rookie season due to leukemia and a torn ACL, Metchie's story of perseverance will see him active for the first game […]

Tyjae Spears Good To Go Against Chargers

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Tyjae Spears (groin) practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and has been removed from the final Week 2 injury report. He will be active on Sunday against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers. Spears was never really in danger of missing his second NFL game. Believe it or not, he […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Off The Week 2 Injury Report

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) has been removed from Friday's final injury report and will start under center on Sunday in Buffalo against the Bills in Week 2. Garoppolo and the Bills will face a stiff test on the road for the second straight week as they attempt to open the 2023 season […]

Jakobi Meyers Officially Ruled Out

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and has officially been ruled out for Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills after initially being ruled as doubtful to play. Meyers had a successful debut with the Raiders in the Week 1 win over the Denver Broncos and caught two […]

Jerry Jeudy Good To Go For Sunday

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told reporters on Friday that wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) is good to go for Sunday's Week 2 contest at home against the Washington Commanders. Jeudy put in full practices on Thursday and Friday but was listed as questionable on the team's final injury report. It appears fantasy managers […]

Zack Moss To Make Season Debut This Sunday

Indianapolis Colts running back Zack Moss (forearm) is off the injury report completely and will make his 2023 season debut this Sunday against the Houston Texans. After an ineffective start for the team's RBs in the Week 1 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and with rookie Evan Hull (knee) on Injured Reserve, Moss could have […]

Darren Waller Has No Injury Status Heading Into Week 2

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) was limited in practice on Friday but was removed from the final injury report heading into Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on the road. Waller is dealing with a hamstring injury to the same leg that caused him to miss time with the Las […]
