Welcome back to another week of NFL DFS GPP Stacks! This is where I talk about the slate and give three stacks you should consider for your GPP lineups! I generally make 3-5 lineups, because it is hard to nail every stack. I use a different stack for each GPP lineup and hope one of […]

MLB Makes First Labor Proposal Since Lockout Began

Major League Baseball made its first labor proposal on Thursday since locking out players on Dec. 2, but it did little to encourage players and raised the likelihood of spring training being postponed, according to sources familiar with the situation. MLB proposed changes to the arbitration system for players with two-plus years of service, tweaked […]

Trent Williams Expected To Play Against Cowboys

Barring a setback in the next few days, the San Francisco 49ers expect left tackle Trent Williams (elbow), who has been recovering from a sprained right elbow for the last few weeks, to play in Sunday's wild-card game against the Dallas Cowboys. Williams was officially limited in Thursday's practice, but all signs are pointing to […]

Steelers Not Planning On JuJu Smith-Schuster Playing

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) is healthy enough to play and the team is hoping that he can suit up on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, but they aren't planning on it happening right now, according to sources. The Steelers designated Smith-Schuster to return from Injured Reserve on Thursday, but the team […]

Van Jefferson Practicing In Full

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (shoulder) was listed as a full participant for the team's first practice of the week on Thursday. Jefferson could be a fine under-the-radar DFS selection this weekend at a cheap price ($4,500 on DraftKings) despite a quiet finish to the regular season. After scoring for a third straight […]

Matthew Stafford Dealing With Toe Injury

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (toe) was listed on Thursday's injury report with a toe injury, but he managed to get in a full practice. Stafford should be good to go for Monday's wild-card tilt against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. Arizona's defense allowed just over 200 yards passing per game in 2021, but they've […]

Rondale Moore Begins Week With Limited Practice

Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Rondale Moore (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Moore continues to be limited in Cardinals practices, but he has missed the last three games with his ankle injury, so he's not a lock to return for Monday night's wild-card matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. […]

James Conner Listed As DNP At Practice

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) officially was listed as a DNP at Thursday's first practice of the week. Conner missed Weeks 16 and 17 with a heel injury before returning for the Week 18 regular season finale, but he suffered a rib injury in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks and is likely […]

Alexis Lafreniere Enters COVID-19 Protocols

New York Rangers forward Alexis Lafreniere has entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols ahead of Thursday's game against the Sharks. The 20-year-old will miss the contest and as a result forward Lauri Pajuniemi has been recalled from the taxi squad. Lafreniere has scored eight goals and added three assists through 37 games, making the second-year forward […]

Tyreek Hill Limited Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday, but he was downgraded to a limited session on Thursday. Hill reportedly looked good in practice on Wednesday, so it's likely that the Chiefs gave him a bit of a breather on Thursday before Sunday's wild-card game against the […]

Ben Roethlisberger Back To A Full Practice Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral, shoulder) returned to a full practice on Thursday, a day after he was listed as a limited practice participant. Roethlisberger has been managing pectoral and shoulder injuries for most of the year, but they won't keep him from playing in Sunday's wild-card playoff contest against the Kansas City Chiefs […]

Mike Smith Expected To Miss 1-2 Weeks

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith (thumb) will miss one to two weeks due to a partial tear in a tendon in his thumb, according to head coach Dave Tippett. Smith was expected to be the Oilers No. 1 goalie this season, but the 39-year-old has not been able to stay healthy and has been limited […]

LPL & LCK DFS Picks (1/14/22) - DraftKings and FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy

Welcome back to another League of Legends DFS fantasy slate! New rosters are debuting still, and early season favorites are still very volatile, as NS proved that to us this morning. TT couldn't come through for me even after having a solid start in game two but then threw it away at baron. These guys […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Practices In Full Thursday

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) put in a full practice on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Garoppolo sprained a ligament in his right thumb in Week 16 and missed Week 17 before returning for a gutsy performance in a must-win game against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in the Week […]

Jake Allen Will Miss At Least One Week

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jake Allen (undisclosed) has been ruled out for at least one week after suffering an injury in Wednesday's game against the Bruins, according to head coach Dominique Ducharme. The Canadiens recalled goaltender Cayden Primeau from the taxi squad ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Chicago Blackhawks. Allen has struggled in his second […]

Alex Ovechkin Misses Practice Thursday

Washington Capitals left wing Alex Ovechkin did not practice on Thursday because of an upper-body injury, but the 36-year-old is expected to play against the Islanders on Saturday afternoon. Ovechkin is currently third in the NHL with 52 points through 37 games, while he is tied for second in the goal scoring race with 24 […]

Igor Shesterkin Could Start Against Sharks

New York Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin could start in net on Thursday night against the San Jose Sharks. Shesterkin entered the league's COVID-19 protocols on Jan. 6, and the 26-year-old has missed 12 of the past 15 games as a result of a lower-body injury that was sustained prior to entering the NHL's protocols. Shesterkin […]

Elijah Mitchell Back On The Practice Field Thursday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) was limited in his return to practice on Thursday after he was absent on Wednesday. The Niners were just giving the rookie a little extra rest on Wednesday. He's fully expected to play on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, and he's one of the better DFS […]

Cyril Grayson Misses Another Practice Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Cyril Grayson (hamstring) missed his second straight practice of the week on Thursday. Head coach Bruce Arians called Grayson doubtful to play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, so fantasy managers expecting to use him as an under-the-radar DFS play on wild-card weekend should pivot and look elsewhere. Grayson played […]

Mike Evans Practices In Full Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) put in a full practice session on Thursday after he was limited on Wednesday. Evans should be fine to play in Sunday's wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He should be heavily targeted by quarterback Tom Brady with Antonio Brown no longer around, Chris Godwin (knee) done […]

Miles Sanders Limited Again Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hand) was limited in practice on Thursday for a second straight day. Sanders missed the final two games of the regular season after fracturing his hand in Week 16, but he's trending towards a return for the wild-card playoff game on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Because of […]

Emmanuel Sanders Removed From The Injury Report

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) was able to practice in full all week and was removed for the final injury report for Saturday's wild-card game against the New England Patriots. Sanders will be back for this weekend's playoff game after he missed three of the final four regular season games with his knee […]
