Tuukka Rask Could Be With Boston By Next Week

Former Boston Bruins netminder Tuukka Rask plans to be with his old team next week. Thursday, the veteran goalie inked a tryout contract with the Bruins AHL affiliate, the Providence Bruins. Electing to have surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right hip before signing an NHL contract, Rask seems confident he can perform […]

Kyle Anderson Is Doubtful For Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (back) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He has cleared the league's health and safety protocols. Although, he'll likely sit this game out due to lingering back soreness. His absence will mean more minutes for Brandon Clarke. He has played well in Anderson's absence and […]

Miles Sanders Officially Ruled Out For Saturday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hand) missed practice all week and has officially been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the Dallas Cowboys. The expectation all along was that Sanders wouldn't return until the postseason after breaking his hand in Week 16. He had 100-yard performances in two […]

Broncos Defense Off The Fantasy Radar To Close Out Season

The Denver Broncos defense/special teams should be avoided to close out their season in Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Not only is this a bad matchup against a strong offense, but the Broncos D will be missing key personnel to slow down Patrick Mahomes and Company. Head coach Vic Fangio announced […]

Dillon Brooks Uncertain For Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Brooks has cleared the league's health and safety protocols, but his status for this matchup remains uncertain. The team is likely going to wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. Desmond Bane would be a […]

Kemba Walker Won't Play Thursday

New York Knicks guard Kemba Walker (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The MRI on Walker's knee came back clean, but the team doesn't feel comfortable letting him play on Thursday. That being said, Alec Burks will remain the starting point guard, while Immanuel Quickley gets more playing time […]

Tim Patrick - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick missed the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers due to COVID-19, but he'll be back on the field for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. Patrick leads the Broncos receivers with five touchdowns on the year, but he's averaging […]

Nikita Kucherov Returns To Lineup Thursday For Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay Lightning winger Nikita Kucherov will finally be back in the lineup Thursday against the Calgary Flames. Since early in the season, the Russian forward has been injured, playing in just three games while collecting a goal and three assists. Kucherov skated on a line with Brayden Point and Ondrej Palat. He should provide […]

Draymond Green Not Playing On Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (hip) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as it seems the Warriors are giving both Green and Stephen Curry (quad) the night off to rest. That being said, Otto Porter Jr. is looking like a must-start fantasy […]

Courtland Sutton - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton was the unquestioned No. 1 receiver in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers with both Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick on the COVID-19 list. Sutton responded with one of his best games in a while, but it was still rather disappointing from a fantasy perspective, as he […]

Stephen Curry Out On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (quad) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This isn't surprising considering Curry mentioned on Wednesday he was likely to sit this game out. The hope is that this is only a one game absence and a rest day for Curry. In the meantime, […]

Nerlens Noel Sitting Out Versus Celtics

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. This marks the second game in a row that Noel has missed after already clearing the health and safety protocols. That means that Mitchell Robinson and Taj Gibson will be asked to fill the void at center. Neither […]

Jerry Jeudy - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy will be back for the Week 18 regular season finale on Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs after missing the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers while on the COVID-19 list. The talented route-runner has taken a step back in his sophomore season, although he has missed […]

Isaiah Stewart Removed From Injury Report

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has already cleared the league's health and safety protocols. However, Stewart has been held out a little longer while he builds up his conditioning. There's a good chance that Stewart has a minutes limit […]

Toronto Places Nick Ritchie On Waivers

Toronto Maple Leafs winger Nick Ritchie is on waivers as of Thursday. Ritchie has produced one goal and seven helpers in 30 contests, mainly playing on Toronto's third and fourth line. His play has been sub-par for the most part, and it's no surprise he was placed on waivers as the Leafs are getting healthy. […]

Noah Fant - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (quadriceps) practiced in full Thursday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Fant caught six passes for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Week 17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but the Broncos were missing receivers […]

Melvin Gordon III - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, thumb) practiced in full on Friday and has been cleared to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. Gordon was removed from the final injury report. Although he had four fewer carries than rookie Javonte Williams in the Week […]

Javonte Williams - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams (knee) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs. For one last game this season, Williams will likely split the backfield workload with teammate Melvin Gordon III. The last time Denver faced KC, Williams had […]

Hunter Renfrow - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow scored again in Week 17 and will take on the weak Los Angeles Chargers' defense in Week 18. The breakout wide receiver had a brief two-game skid in Weeks 15 and 16 that had fantasy managers slightly concerned but quickly corrected course in Week 17 with a seven […]

D'Onta Foreman - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Tennessee Titans running back D'Onta Foreman has officially broken out and made something of his career and will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 18. Since Week 14, the former Houston Texan is the RB9, but now, Derrick Henry may return. If Henry remains out, Foreman's situation is clear: start him as a low-level […]

Rashaad Penny - Week 18 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny has been the RB1 since Week 14. What's more is in 0.5-PPR Penny is out-scoring Najee Harris (the RB2) by 14 points. In Week 18 against the Arizona Cardinals, the former first round pick is an unquestioned RB1 and arguably a top five option. In a week in which […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Throws In Practice Thursday

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) threw some deep passes in practice on Thursday. The 49ers are notoriously vague with their injury timelines, and this injury is certainly no exception. Garoppolo's return has been teased for a couple straight weeks, and now, here we are again. Fortunately, regardless of if the veteran plays or […]

Drew Lock Good To Go For Saturday

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Friday and was taken off the injury report for Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday. The signal-caller left his Week 17 game against the Los Angeles Chargers due to this injury but returned later in the game. Since he […]

DK Metcalf Doesn't Want To Leave Seattle

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf said he wants to sign a contract extension this offseason and remain in Seattle. "Of course. I'm not trying to leave. But we've got the Cardinals to focus on now," Metcalf said. Metcalf went through a cold spell from Weeks 10 to 15 after quarterback Russell Wilson returned from […]

James O'Shaughnessy On Track To Miss Another Game

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. After sitting out the Week 17 blowout loss to the New England Patriots, O'Shaughnessy looks primed to finish out the season on the sidelines in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Indianapolis Colts. The good […]

Ricky Seals-Jones, Curtis Samuel Absent Thursday

Washington Football Team tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (concussion) and wide receiver Curtis Samuel (hamstring) were both sidelined at practice on Thursday for the second straight day. It would be a surprise at this point if either player were to suit up on Sunday for the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Giants […]

C.J. Uzomah Out Again Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (hip, knee) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday. Uzomah's injuries may not be all that serious, but the Bengals won't take any chances if they don't have to and could rest the 28-year-old in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. […]

Kyle Pitts Thinks He'll Play Sunday

Atlanta Falcons rookie tight end Kyle Pitts (hamstring) said he thinks he will play on Sunday in the Week 18 regular season finale against the New Orleans Saints. Pitts needs 50 yards to set the NFL's record for receiving yards as a rookie. After missing practice on Wednesday, Pitts was back on the field for […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Officially Ruled Out

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (shoulder) has officially been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Denver Broncos on Saturday. Darrel Williams, who had 14 carries for 88 yards and two touchdowns while adding three receptions for 19 yards last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, is in line […]
