St. Louis Blues defenseman Scott Perunovich (shoulder) is set to undergo surgery to repair a fractured left shoulder that he suffered in a preseason game.

Dawson Knox Misses Thursday's Practice

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (foot, hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday because of foot and hamstring ailments. The 25-year-old has just 111 receiving yards through four games this season, averaging just 4.3 targets per game despite being in the pass-heavy Josh Allen-led offense. Knox will likely need to get […]

Marquise Brown Back At Practice Thursday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (foot) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session. Brown was on the injury report last week with the same foot issue, so there is no reason to believe he is in any danger of missing the team's Week 5 matchup with the Eagles. The injury didn't […]

Kadarius Toney Not Practicing Thursday

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was held out of practice on Thursday after getting in a limited session on Wednesday.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) was not spotted at practice for the second straight day as he deals with a hamstring injury.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday as he continues to rehab an ankle injury he suffered in Week 3 against the Vikings.

Jaylen Waddle Practices Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) was back at practice on Thursday after being held out of the team's Wednesday session. This bodes well for his availability in Week 5 against the Jets, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status at Friday's practice.

Latavius Murray Inactive Thursday Night

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray will not suit up with his new team on Thursday night against the Colts.

Colts vs Broncos Start 'Em Sit 'Em: Russell Wilson, Jerry Jeudy, Melvin Gordon, Nyheim Hines, Mike Boone, Mo Alie-Cox, Alec Pierce

I hope you all survived last week. With monster weeks from lots of second-tier players such as Josh Jacobs, Miles Sanders, and Jamaal Williams, some of the teams with slow starts might have gotten their revenge.  This week, we have two veteran quarterbacks who are looking to turn their new teams around. Thankfully, both QBs […]

Curtis Samuel Out Again, Jahan Dotson On Side Field

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel (illness) was absent for the second straight day on Thursday with an illness. Meanwhile, Jahan Dotson (hamstring) was present but working on a side field, so he'll likely be listed as a DNP for the second straight day. Samuel could still be fine for Week 5 against the Tennessee […]

Cairo Santos Rejoins Team

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos (personal) has rejoined the team and isn't on the injury report this week after missing the Week 4 loss to the New York Giants due to a personal issue. It appears that he will return as the primary kicker for the Week 5 game against the Minnesota Vikings. In his […]

Chris Godwin, Julio Jones Practicing Again Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Chris Godwin (knee) and Julio Jones (knee) are both practicing for the second straight day on Thursday. Godwin and Jones both returned to action in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, although Jones was "nicked up" and didn't play at all in the second half. He finished […]

Cameron Brate Trending In The Wrong Direction

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate (concussion) wasn't seen at practice in the portion open to the media for the second straight day on Thursday.

The Indianapolis Colts elevated running back Phillip Lindsay from their practice squad to the active roster for Thursday night's game against his former team, the Denver Broncos, according to a source. With Jonathan Taylor (ankle) ruled out for Week 5, Lindsay will make his Colts debut and could have a role alongside pass-catching back Nyheim […]

Alvin Kamara Expects To Return In Week 5

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (rib) said he's feeling good and plans to play in Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks after he missed the loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London last week. He was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice. Kamara's rib injury has caused him to miss two of the […]

Tom Brady Returns To Practice Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (finger, shoulder) was back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It's always notable anytime Brady is dealing with an injury, and he was seen trying to loosen up his shoulder in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last Sunday night. It's worth watching, […]

D'Andre Swift Likely To Miss Week 5

The Detroit Lions will likely be without running back D'Andre Swift (shoulder) for the Week 5 game against the New England Patriots, according to a source. The plan is still for Swift to return after the team's Week 6 bye, barring an unforeseen development. The Lions will likely officially rule Swift out on Friday, but […]

Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom said that the team will try to retain shortstop Xander Bogaerts. "That process is going to start right away from our end.
