Odell Beckham Jr. Targeting Mid-November Return

Free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who is recovering from an ACL tear, is targeting a mid-November return. Since teams are unlikely to sign the veteran until he is healthy, "an imminent signing would be a major surprise," writes Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. With that said, Beckham is the top player available at the […]

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (calf) "is considered a true game-time decision" and will be evaluated prior to kickoff, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.

Tony Pollard Expected To Play In Week 5

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard (illness) is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Despite being listed as questionable, Pollard traveled with the team to the West Coast and the Cowboys opted not to promote a running back from the practice squad. As a result, he will play in […]

New York Giants defensive lineman Leonard Williams (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers in London.

Hayden Hurst Expected To Be On The Field Versus Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst (groin) is expected to play on Sunday night in the AFC North clash with the Ravens.

Tee Higgins Likely Available For Sunday Night Football

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is expected to be ready to go for the Sunday Night Football divisional clash with the Baltimore Ravens. The 23-year-old is listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity throughout the week, although he has been trending in the right direction. Higgins has arguably been the team's top […]

Bailey Zappe Expected To Start Against Detroit

New England Patriots quarterback Bailey Zappe is expected to make his first career start against Detroit on Sunday. Mac Jones (ankle) is doubtful, and Brian Hoyer (concussion) is on injured reserve, so head coach Bill Belichick will turn to the 2022 fourth-round pick to handle things under center. The 23-year-old came in for relief when […]

Mac Jones Expected To Sit Out In Week 5

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) isn't expected to suit up on Sunday against the Detroit Lions, marking his second-straight absence. Backup Brian Hoyer (concussion) won't play, either. Instead, Bailey Zappe is in line to make his first official NFL start. The 23-year-old came in for relief after Hoyer went down in Week 4 […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown A Game-Time Call On Sunday

Detroit Lions running back Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is considered a game-time call, per ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. Jared Goff could certainly use him versus the Pats in Week 5, especially since D.J. Chark (ankle) and Quintez Cephus (foot) won't be on the field. If St. Brown plays, he'll likely receive a generous helping […]

Josh Reynolds In Line To Play Against Pats

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ankle) is likely to suit up for the Week 5 meeting with the New England Patriots. That's good news, primarily since D.J. Chark (ankle) and Quintez Cephus (foot) aren't available for this one. However, if Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is also ruled out, Reynolds will become a must-start in […]

Barring A Setback, Jaylen Waddle Will Play In Week 5

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) will play in Week 5 against the Jets, barring a setback, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. While there was a chance the wideout would miss this one after logging two-straight limited practices during the week, he didn't appear to be in any real danger of sitting […]

Tyreek Hill Likely Good To Go For AFC East Battle

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) is expected to suit up for Sunday's AFC East showdown with the New York Jets. The veteran didn't practice on Wednesday but managed to log limited sessions on Thursday and Friday, so it's undoubtedly good news for a team that will enter Week 5 without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. […]

Alvin Kamara Likely To Return In Week 5

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ribs) is expected to play on Sunday versus Seattle, per ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. The veteran, who missed his previous two games, was limited in practice throughout the week and had been riding a questionable tag. Despite Kamara's subpar production this season, he should be classified as […]

The former Gonzaga Bulldog averaged […]

Anthony Davis Practices on Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (back) returned to practice on Saturday. Davis has been dealing with lower back tightness and has already missed time this preseason. The 29-year-old has unquestionably been an MVP-caliber performer over the years, averaging 23.8 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.3 blocks, and 1.4 steals since being drafted No. 1 overall in […]

Is Jahan Dotson Playing? Should I Start Curtis Samuel?

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson has been a pleasant surprise for fantasy players this season. The first-round pick is the WR23 in half-point PPR scoring, averaging 11.8 fantasy points per game. Furthermore, the rookie receiver's four receiving touchdowns tie Stefon Diggs for the league lead. Dotson has been a bright spot on an otherwise […]
