Patrick Cantlay A Heavy Favorite This Week

Patrick Cantlay's 2022 debut was a solid one, as he finished fourth at Kapalua. In Maui, Cantlay gained 5.9 strokes from tee to green and 3.6 strokes on approach.

Plate Discipline: Using Sabermetrics for Fantasy Baseball

No matter how high a particular player's BABIP may be, his average will be mediocre at best if he strikes out too much.

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores and Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll are believed to be on the short list as top candidates to become the New York Giants next head coach, according to multiple sources familiar with the Giants thinking.

JuJu Smith-Schuster Hopes To Remain With Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster returned from Injured Reserve for one more game in the team's wild-card loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, but he'll be an unrestricted free agent for the second straight year this offseason.

Gary Trent Jr. Not Available On Monday

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. Trent attempted to warm up for this contest, but the swelling in his left ankle continues to bother him. That means, Trent will miss his fifth straight game, but seems closer to a return. Fred VanVleet and […]

Mike McCarthy Expected To Remain With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on Monday that he expects head coach Mike McCarthy to remain the team's head coach after the Cowboys season ended on Sunday in the wild-card loss to the San Francisco 49ers. "Absolutely. Very confident," Jones said. It was a very disappointing end for a Cowboys team that […]

Duncan Robinson Moves Into Starting Lineup

Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Kyle Lowry (personal) will be unavailable for this contest, but hopefully it'll only be a one-game absence. His absence should mean more minutes for Robinson, Strus, and possibly Caleb Martin. Robinson is a shaky fantasy option due […]

Ezekiel Elliott Played Through Torn PCL This Year

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) said that he partially tore his PCL this year. Elliott said he won't need offseason surgery on his knee, but it's something that he had to work through during the year. "It's my job," Elliott said.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (shoulder) is officially active on Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals after he was listed as questionable to play on the final injury report for wild-card week.

Rondale Moore Will Play Monday Night

Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Rondale Moore (ankle) is active for the Monday night game against the Los Angeles Rams to close out super wild-card weekend.

Bam Adebayo Will Play Against Raptors

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) will make his return to the court on Monday versus the Toronto Raptors. He has been sidelined since November 29 due to a right thumb injury.

James Conner Active Against Rams

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) is officially active for Monday night's wild-card game against the Los Angeles Rams. Jonathan Ward (knee) will not play. Conner was a game-time decision coming into this one, but he was expected to play after getting in a limited practice on Saturday. The Cardinals will be at full […]

Carmelo Anthony Tagged As Questionable

Los Angeles Lakers forward Carmelo Anthony (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. He has missed each of the last two games due to lower back tightness. The Lakers might take the cautious approach here and let Anthony have another night off to fully recover. Talen Horton-Tucker, and Trevor Ariza […]

Jerick McKinnon Has Big Game In Win Over Steelers

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon stepped up with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) out in the wild-card win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night.

Scottie Barnes Removed From Injury Report

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Miami Heat. He was rested on Saturday, but Barnes should be back in action here. His return should push Yuta Watanabe to the second unit. Also, Precious Achiuwa won't have as big of a role with […]

Eric Weddle Added To Rams Active Roster

The Los Angeles Rams officially elevated formerly retired safety Eric Weddle from their practice squad to the active roster in order to play in Monday night's wild-card game against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals.
