Salvon Ahmed Placed On COVID List

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed has been placed on the COVID-19 list. He joins lead back Myles Gaskin who was placed on the list earlier in the week. Luckily, the Dolphins are on a bye for Week 14. That means, both players have time to get cleared before Week 15. Otherwise, Phillip Lindsay would […]

Chase Edmonds Status Remains Unknown

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (ankle) is uncertain for Monday's Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The organization is going to wait until Monday to decide if Edmonds will be removed from the injured reserve. This is obviously frustrating for fantasy managers who need to set a lineup for Sunday. James Conner […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Placed On COVID List

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson has been placed on the COVID-19 list ahead of their Week 14 matchup. That means, Henderson is most likely unavailable for Monday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. The 24-year-old is expected to be sidelined here, which means Sony Michel should take over as the lead back. He doesn't […]

Brock Nelson Ready To Return On Saturday

New York Islanders center Brock Nelson (lower body) will be back from a seven-game absence on Saturday against New Jersey. Nelson has missed three weeks of action, but he still leads the team with nine goals and is tied for second in scoring with 11 points in 15 games. It's been a decent season for […]

Mike Williams Activated Ahead Of Week 14

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has been activated from the COVID-19 list. This is great news with Keenan Allen being sidelined due to COVID protocols for Sunday's matchup against the New York Giants. The fact Allen is sidelined will make Williams the primary receiving target for this Week 14 matchup. Fantasy managers should […]

Elijah Moore Placed On Injured Reserve

New York Jets wide receiver Elijah Moore (quad) has been placed on the injured reserve. This is bad timing for the Jets who are already without Corey Davis (groin) for the rest of the season. Now, veteran wideout Jamison Crowder will slide into the No. 1 receiver role for Sunday's Week 14 matchup against the […]

Ondrej Kase Skates On Top Line Versus Chicago

Toronto Maple Leafs right wing Ondrej Kase will log first-line minutes in Saturday's matchup against Chicago. He will take over from Wayne Simmonds, who's been riding with Michael Bunting and Auston Matthews after Mitchell Marner (shoulder) got sidelined. Kase impressed with two goals in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Tampa, and he's been averaging a point […]

Ryan Getzlaf Returns Against Penguins

Anaheim Ducks center Ryan Getzlaf (lower body) will re-enter the lineup on Saturday against Pittsburgh, ending a five-game absence. The Ducks captain will play center between Sam Steel and Troy Terry. With Terry shining on his wing, Getzlaf has enjoyed a very productive season with 20 points in 23 games. He's already surpassed his tally […]

Kirby Dach Moves To First Line With Henrik Borgstrom Sick

Chicago Blackhawks center Kirby Dach will roll with the first line on Saturday against Toronto, with Henrik Borgstrom dropping out of the lineup because of an illness. The Swede was moved to the top line on Thursday against Montreal, and he ended up getting himself a goal straight away in a 2-0 win. Dach moves […]

Deandre Ayton Exits Practice Early

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (illness) was unable to get through Saturday's practice. The stud big man was sent home early due to a non-COVID related illness. He missed Friday's game and there's a good chance he'll sit out on Monday as well. That being said, JaVale McGee is in line to start if Ayton […]

Tom Wilson Considered Day-To-Day

Washington Capitals right wing Tom Wilson will sit out Saturday's match against Buffalo with an upper-body injury, and he's considered day-to-day. The 27-year-old bruiser was injured in Friday's 4-2 loss to Pittsburgh. Wilson is having another busy campaign in 2021-22, having notched 24 points in 27 games with 48 shots, 78 hits and 23 blocks. […]

Obi Toppin Enters Safety Protocols

New York Knicks forward Obi Toppin has entered the league's health and safety protocols. It's bad timing since Toppin had been playing better recently and was beginning to earn a bigger role on the team. Hopefully, Toppin won't have to miss too much time and can get back on the court soon. In the meantime, […]

Charlie Lindgren Makes Another Start On Saturday

St. Louis Blues goaltender Charlie Lindgren will make another start for the team on Saturday against Montreal. The Blues have turned to Lindgren because Jordan Binnington remains on the COVID-19 list and Ville Husso picked up a lower-body injury in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win against Florida. Lindgren replaced Husso Tuesday night and collected the win. […]

Dillon Brooks Available Against Rockets

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks is available for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. He sat out of Thursday's game due to COVID protocols, but will return for this contest. His return should push De'Anthony Melton out of the starting five, but he could still have deep league value off the bench. Brooks could be […]

Jake Evans Misses Saturday's Contest

Montreal Canadiens forward Jake Evans will sit out Saturday's matchup against St. Louis with an undisclosed injury. He got hurt Thursday night against Chicago and is considered day-to-day. Evans boasts just six points for the campaign, but he had been skating on the second line recently. Joel Armia (undisclosed) will take his spot as he […]

Kyle Kuzma To Miss Saturday's Contest

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. He will miss at least one game while following the league's health and safety protocols. It's a shame since Kuzma is having a career year in Washington. Deni Avdija will move into the starting five, while Davis Bertans gets more […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Remains Out Against Grizzlies

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This marks four games in a row that Porter has missed due to this lingering thigh issue. The organization has not given many updates on Porter, so he could very well miss Monday's game as well. In […]

Tyler Toffoli Undergoes Hand Surgery

Montreal Canadiens winger Tyler Toffoli has undergone hand surgery and will be out for eight weeks. The 29-year-old has already sat out two games, and he won't be back until early February. Toffoli picked up five goals and 17 points in 26 before getting injured. Montreal has seen a number of forwards go down lately […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Doubtful For Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is certainly frustrating with the Grizzlies already shorthanded. Now, they could potentially be without one of their better players on Saturday. His absence would mean Kyle Anderson would likely slide into the starting five. He could […]

Will Barton Downgraded To Questionable

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was previously listed as probable, but it sounds like Barton is still feeling under the weather. That being said, the Nuggets might take the cautious approach and hold him out of this one. Bones Hyland […]
