Cole Kmet Limited Again Thursday

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (hamstring) was limited in practice for a second consecutive day on Thursday. Kmet's Week 6 status is worth watching heading into Sunday's tilt versus the Minnesota Vikings, but we'd be surprised if he didn't suit up. The 24-year-old tight end has scored three touchdowns in the last two weeks […]

Khalil Herbert, Roschon Johnson Miss Another Practice

Chicago Bears running backs Khalil Herbert (ankle), Roschon Johnson (concussion) and Travis Homer (hamstring) all missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. All three RBs were injured in last Thursday's win over the Washington Commanders, leaving Chicago's backfield extremely thin heading into their Week 6 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Herbert is dealing […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Set To Return To Practice

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) will return to practice on Thursday, according to head coach Brian Daboll. Robinson was held out of practice on Wednesday as the Giants continue to rest him early in the week after he tore his right ACL in his rookie year in 2022. The 22-year-old didn't make […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 6: Brock Purdy, Saquon Barkley, and Amari Cooper

Week 6 of the fantasy football season is underway and while we may have drafted certain players at a premium, it is okay to consider benching them despite their name value. We often hear the phrase "start your studs" and it is a tried and true method, especially earlier in the season. When injuries, tough […]

Darren Waller Back At Practice Thursday

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (groin) will take part in practice on Thursday, according to head coach Brian Daboll. Waller was rested with a groin injury in practice on Wednesday, and Waller said all along that was the plan before he was scheduled to return to the practice field on Thursday and Friday. […]

Daniel Jones Missing Another Practice

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that quarterback Daniel Jones (neck) will miss his second straight practice this week on Thursday. At the beginning of the week, the Giants said they were optimistic about Jones' chances of suiting up on Sunday Night Football against the Buffalo Bills. But after two straight missed practices […]

Jordan Addison Practicing Again Thursday

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison (ankle), who was limited in practice on Wednesday, was on the practice field again on Thursday. The first-year wideout will likely be limited for a second straight day. His status will be worth monitoring heading into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears, but it looks like he'll have […]

Deshaun Watson Does Not Practice On Thursday

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) got more rest for his ailing shoulder on Thursday, sitting out practice for a second day in a row. Watson has a bruised rotator cuff which can take up to six weeks to heal. The quarterback was held out of Week 4 as a precaution, ceding a start to […]

Treylon Burks Ruled Out For London Game

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (knee) will not travel to London for the team's Week 6 contest against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday and he has been officially ruled out. Burks will miss his third straight game. The 23-year-old second-year wideout is off to a bad start in 2023, catching six of his 13 […]

Marquise Brown Returns To Practice

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (illness) was back participating in practice on Thursday in a limited fashion after he was held out due to an illness on Wednesday. Brown could pick up a questionable designation on Friday heading into the Week 6 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, but he should be able to […]

Miles Sanders Still Not Practicing On Thursday

Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders (shoulder) missed practice on Thursday, making it the second consecutive day the veteran is sitting. Sanders had been battling a groin injury all season but left the Panthers' Week 5 loss to the Detroit Lions early after picking up an injury to his shoulder sometime during that game. Sanders […]

Jordan Goodwin Probable On Thursday

Phoenix Suns point guard Jordan Goodwin (hamstring) is considered probable for Thursday's preseason game versus Portland. The 24-year-old hasn't yet played in preseason due to right hamstring tightness. However, he was able to get a full practice in on Wednesday and looks set to play his first game with the Suns Thursday. Goodwin, who is […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Remains Absent From Practice

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) is missing practice for the third consecutive day this week. The seventh-year veteran is in the league's concussion protocol after taking a hit to the head in the Patriots' Week 5 loss to the New Orleans Saints. His status for Week 6 is in question, as he […]

Nick Folk Could Boom In Week 6 Defensive Battle

Tennessee Titans kicker Nick Folk has made all 13 of his field goal attempts this season, including three kicks from 50-plus yards. He's also made all seven of his extra-point tries.

Viktor Arvidsson Placed On Long-Term Injured Reserve

Los Angeles Kings winger Viktor Arvidsson (lower body) has been placed on long-term Injured Reserve.

He's not set to be unavailable for at least 10 […]

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine Has Low Floor Against Ravens

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is the only receiver on the team to catch a touchdown this season. He has found the end zone twice, but his overall body of work hasn't made him a strong fantasy option heading into Week 6. In the absence of Treylon Burks (knee) in a favorable matchup for […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo Not Worth Streaming Against Ravens

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo earned nine targets last week against the Indianapolis Colts, but he caught just five of them for 33 yards. He drew some interest on the waiver wire after the nine-target game, but he'll face a tough matchup with the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday morning in Week 6. Baltimore has […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Still Not Practicing

Detroit Lions rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) is not practicing for the second consecutive day ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Justin Herbert Set For Another Big Game In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) is set for another strong performance in a Week 6 game against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Herbert has been a fantasy QB1 in every game this season, finishing as the QB6, QB11, QB1, and QB5 so far. The Cowboys pass defense hasn't been anything special […]

Tyjae Spears A Deep-League Flex Option

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears scored his first career touchdown in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He finished Week 5 as the RB9 in PPR leagues and played more than 50% of the team's offensive snaps for the fourth time in five games and the third time in a row. His […]

Brandon Tanev Unavailable Thursday

Seattle Kraken left wing Brandon Tanev (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup versus Nashville. The 31-year-old was injured on a high hit from Vegas forward Brett Howden Tuesday and needs more time to recover. Last season, Tanev managed to play in all 82 regular-season games, scoring a career-high 35 points (16 goals, […]

Joshua Palmer Should Be Solid In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer should be a solid depth option in a Week 6 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Palmer has moved into a larger role since Mike Williams (knee) was lost for the season, and he's been a fantasy WR3 for two weeks in a row, combining […]

DeAndre Hopkins Has Low Ceiling, Low Floor In Week 6

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught eight passes on 11 targets for 140 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. It was his best showing in his Titans' career, and it revitalized his fantasy outlook moving forward. However, the Colts have been torched by wide receivers all season, so it's important […]

Keenan Allen A Strong Choice Like Usual In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen is a strong fantasy choice as always in Week 6 lineups. The Chargers will take on the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football this week.

Derrick Henry Could Flop Again In Week 6

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has averaged just 3.8 yards per carry this season, posting 328 yards on 86 attempts. He has also scored just one rushing touchdown through five weeks. Needless to say, he's looked like a shell of his former self, meaning a matchup with a Baltimore Ravens in Week 6 is […]
