Trevor Lawrence Poised For Solid Performance In Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is slated to face the Washington Commanders in Week 1.

Besides Young being sidelined, Washington surrendered the most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks […]

George Kittle Day-To-Day With Groin Issue

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (groin) won't practice on Wednesday. Head coach Kyle Shanahan is calling it a day-to-day issue after Kittle did a little work on Monday. It puts Kittle's availability for Week 1's game against the Chicago Bears in question. It's not what Kittle's fantasy managers wanted to see entering the […]

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel (ankle) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs.

Matt Carpenter Remains In Protective Boot

New York Yankees infielder Matt Carpenter (foot) had X-rays performed recently that showed good healing, but not enough for him to shed the protective walking boot he's been using. He's expected to have more imaging done in 10 days to two weeks, according to skipper Aaron Boone. Carpenter has been out almost a month with […]

Starling Marte Won't Start Game 2 Of Doubleheader

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte (hand) left the stadium on Wednesday to undergo further testing on his right hand after he was hit by a pitch on Tuesday.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers is not in the starting lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday.

Greg Zuerlein Not A Great Week 1 Option

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein is not a viable starting option in Week 1 lineups. While kicker is the world's most unpredictable fantasy position outside of the very top tier, Zuerlein seems less likely than most other kickers to make an impact in Week 1. With the Jets starting their season with a backup […]

Tyler Conklin Could Surprise In Week 1

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin could be one of the more surprising fantasy assets in Week 1. Conklin has gone undrafted in many leagues but is currently atop the tight end depth chart for the Jets. They also signed C.J. Uzomah and drafted Jeremy Ruckert, but it's been Conklin that has impressed the […]

Riley Greene Not Starting On Wednesday

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene isn't in the team's lineup on Wednesday for a matchup with the Los Angeles Angels and left-handed starter Patrick Sandoval.

Cameron Brate, Kyle Rudolph May Not Be Featured Much

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that the tight end production this year will be made up with the wide receivers and running backs without Rob Gronkowski in the picture. That's not good news for Cameron Brate, Kyle Rudolph or rookie Cade Otton. Brate figures to take over most of Gronk's production, especially […]

Brandon Lowe Reinstated From Injured List

The Tampa Bay Rays reinstated infielder Brandon Lowe (triceps) from the injured list on Wednesday. The 28-year-old is hitting .234 in 251 plate appearances for the Rays this season, with a .319 on-base percentage, eight home runs, and a stolen base. To make room for Lowe on the active roster, Tampa Bay optioned infielder and […]

The Yankees also recalled right-handed pitcher Deivi Garcia from Triple-A […]

J.J. Watt Day-To-Day With Calf Issue

Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that defensive end J.J. Watt (calf) is day-to-day with a calf injury. He wasn't able to practice on Wednesday.

DJ LeMahieu On The Bench For Game 1 Wednesday

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu isn't in the team's starting lineup for the first game of a doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins and right-hander Louie Varland on Wednesday. The 33-year-old is enjoying a quality season at the plate, hitting .262 with a .358 on-base percentage and 12 home runs in 523 plate appearances this […]

Corey Davis Looks To Regain Relevance In Week 1

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis will look to regain fantasy relevance in a Week 1 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Davis did well in bursts with Zach Wilson under center last year, but he will be working with Joe Flacco for at least the first four games of the season. He will also […]
