Joshua Palmer Active Against Browns
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) is officially active in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns after he came into this game listed as questionable. With Keenan Allen (hamstring) still out, Palmer should have a considerable role in the passing attack against Cleveland despite catching his only target for 25 yards while playing […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Will Play In Week 5
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) will suit up for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the New England Patriots. He missed last week's game and was limited during practice this week. Despite that, it appears he's healthy enough to get back on the field. The 22-year-old has been excellent for the Lions this […]

Isaiah McKenzie, Jordan Poyer Out In Week 5
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers after he wasn't able to clear the league's concussion protocol. The Bills will also be without wide receivers Jake Kumerow (ankle) and Jamison Crowder (ankle), tight end Dawson Knox (foot, hamstring), safety Jordan Poyer (ribs) and middle […]

Alvin Kamara Active For Week 5
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ribs) is active for the Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. This is good news after Kamara has missed two previous contests due to the same issue. Kamara isn't having a great season, but is a must-start against the Seahawks defense. He should have plenty of success […]

Denny Hamlin In Odd Position For Sunday
Denny Hamlin starts all the way back in 24th in his Joe Gibbs Racing car. The No. 11 driver has some work to do even with being 21 points up in the "Round Of 8" battle. Hamlin must find a way to just make up some positions and set himself up for the second half […]

Kyle Larson Starts Back In 18th For Sunday
Kyle Larson had a few issues on the road course in qualifying on Saturday and wound up 18th. Larson will have to battle his way up to the front. If anyone can, it is the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver. The No. 5 Chevy won the race last year starting from the tenth position. He did […]

Logan Thomas Won't Play In Week 5
Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (calf) has been ruled out for the Week 5 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. The 25-year-old tested his calf pregame and decided he wasn't healthy enough to suit up. His absence probably won't mean too much for the backup tight ends. However, the wide receivers in Washington should see […]

Chase Briscoe Could Have Tall Order On Sunday
Being 12 points down in the standings hurt Chase Briscoe and his Ford for Sunday's race at Charlotte. He starts in 16th and will have to negotiate up to the front of the course. That will be no easy feat. Briscoe started and finished 22nd last year in his only road appearance at Charlotte at […]

Michael McDowell Rolling Into Charlotte Sunday
Michael McDowell is enjoying his best stretch of the season at the right time. He has 12 top-ten results which is a career high for him. He does compete well on road courses from time to time too. McDowell and his Front Row Motorsports car have accumulated stage points in the last three races on […]

Michael Thomas Likely To Play In Week 6
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (foot) has already been ruled out for the Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. This is his second missed start this season, but it sounds like Thomas is likely to suit up in Week 6. Until then, the Saints will lean on Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry […]

Ross Chastain In Good Position For Charlotte
Ross Chastain is third in the playoff standings and 28 points up on the cut line. The TrackHouse Racing driver qualified tenth for the Bank of America Roval 400 on Sunday. Chastain did win on a road course this year at Circuit of the Americas. There, the No. 1 Chevy started from 16th to win […]

Julio Jones Officially Out For Week 5
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee) has been officially ruled out for the Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran wideout was questionable coming into this contest. It sounded like he was going to test his knee pregame, but clearly he's not ready to play yet. Luckily for Tampa Bay, fellow […]

Chase Elliott On Cruise Control For Sunday
Chase Elliott starts ninth for the Bank of America Roval 400 on Sunday but is already in the Round of 8. That is because the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver won at Talladega last week. The No. 9 car has won six road races in the last three years but has not won one this year. […]

Russell Gage Will Play On Sunday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (back) will suit up for the Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. He was listed as questionable coming into this contest after getting through limited practices. Despite that, it appears Gage is healthy enough to get out there on Sunday. That is good news for the Bucs […]

Christopher Bell Must Win To Get In
Christopher Bell finds himself in an unfortunate position for Joe Gibbs Racing. The No. 20 driver has to win to get into the "Round Of 8". He is 45 points off the cut line which is too many to make up barring a herculean amount of fortunate events. Bell does have a top ten in […]

A.J. Allmendinger Trying To Pull The Weekend Double
A.J. Allmendinger will start seventh on Sunday in his bid to win both the NASCAR and Xfinity races this weekend. Allmendinger took the Drive For The Cure 250 on Saturday edging out Ty Gibbs for the win. The Kaulig Racing driver has evolved as a bit more than just a road car driver but it […]

Ryan Blaney Qualifies Behind Austin Cindric For Sunday
Ryan Blaney has been mostly consistent on road courses and will start sixth for the Bank of America Roval 400 on Sunday. The Team Penske Ford has finished in the top-ten the past three times and won it in 2018. Blaney has also managed to snag stage points in all four races. That includes two […]

Austin Cindric On The Outside Looking In For Sunday
Austin Cindric was the other driver who got hurt by the William Byron point docking reversal. He finds himself 12 points off the bubble like Chase Briscoe. Unlike Briscoe, Cindric and his Team Penske Ford car qualified fifth on Saturday. They were among the three fastest cars on the road portion of the course. In […]

Tyler Reddick A Road Whisperer Of Late
It kind of feels like Tyler Reddick is the "road whisperer" of sorts this year. He has won twice away from the left-turn only courses of NASCAR. The No. 8 Chevy qualified fourth for Sunday's race at Charlotte. Also, Reddick and his Richard Childress Racing car have at top-five and top-ten result. He has been […]

Daniel Suarez Leads TrackHouse Racing In Qualifying
For a little while there, it looked like Daniel Suarez might even take the pole for Sunday's race at Charlotte. Instead, Suarez and his TrackHouse Racing car will have to settle for third. The two team cars have done quite well on road tracks this year. Chevy's have in general. That being said, Suarez did […]

William Byron A Good Pick To Contend On Sunday
William Byron and his Hendrick Motorsports Racing car are very fast at Charlotte. Byron has led 24.5% of the laps in the last three races on the Roval. His 7.7 average finish includes two top tens and does not take into consider a few things. He was in the top three in every one of […]

Joey Logano Wins Pole For Bank Of America Roval 400
Joey Logano got around the road and oval course faster than anyone in his Team Penske Ford on Saturday. His time of 80.755 seconds was just a tiny bit quicker than William Byron. Logano will start from the prime leading position on Sunday for the Bank of America Roval 400. The No. 22 car likely […]

Is D’Andre Swift Injured or Playing? Should I Start Jamaal Williams in Week 5?
Fantasy managers who used an early-round pick on Detroit Lions running back D’Andre Swift have undoubtedly been scrambling to fill the void of his absence the last two weeks if they didn’t also draft Jamaal Williams. In the team’s first two games, Swift logged at least a 51% snap share and had 20 carries for […]

Julio Jones To Work Out Pregame
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee) is hopeful to play during the Week 5 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. He was able to play through his knee issue last week and didn't seem to have any problems. However, the team will have Jones work out pregame to determine whether or not he'll suit […]

Kenny Pickett To Air It Out In First Start
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett is making his first NFL start against the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. This is not an easy task for your first career start in professional football. Despite that, the Steelers aren't going to hold anything back for this game. They mentioned they plan for Pickett to sling it downfield […]

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) "is still regaining grip strength and would need to make significant strides to be ready to return from his fractured right thumb" in Week 6, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. All the while, Dallas should not feel compelled to rush him back into action too soon considering Cooper […]
