Jordan Howard Not Back At Practice
Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (knee) missed practice on Wednesday. Howard missed practice all of last week and was ruled out, and he's not on track to make his return in Week 13 against the New York Jets. Miles Sanders and Boston Scott split the majority of the workload in last week's loss to […]

Nathan MacKinnon Returns To Action Against Toronto
Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon (lower body) will return to action in Wednesday's clash with the Maple Leafs. He'll be back after missing eight straight games. MacKinnon's season has been heavily interrupted by health issues and thus he has made only eight appearances, going for 10 points in the games with 23 shots. MacKinnon's return […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Play Wednesday, Has No Minutes Cap
Dallas Mavericks power forward Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) is a full go for Wednesday's game against New Orleans, as he will not face any minutes restriction despite battling a sprained right ankle. Porzingis had a dominant seven-game stretch in which he averaged 26 points and 9.3 boards from Nov. 10-23, showcasing his fantasy upside when healthy. […]

Phillip Lindsay, Adam Shaheen Limited Wednesday
Miami Dolphins running back Phillip Lindsay (ankle) and tight end Adam Shaheen (knee) were limited in Wednesday's practice. Lindsay played 15 offensive snaps in his team debut in Week 12 and carried the ball 12 times for 42 yards behind Myles Gaskin. Lindsay's addition is obviously bad news for Salvon Ahmed's rest-of-season outlook, but Lindsay […]

Kevin Hayes Returns To Action On Wednesday
Philadelphia Flyers center Kevin Hayes (abdomen) will be back in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Rangers. The 29-year-old has missed six straight games and he's skated just twice this season, posting one goal and one assist. Hopefully, Hayes can stay healthy for a longer period of time now. He enters the lineup as […]

Robert Williams III Faces Minutes Cap Wednesday
Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) will have an unspecified minutes restriction during Wednesday's contest against the 76ers. While it's a positive for fantasy managers to have Williams back -- particularly to matchup vs. Joel Embiid -- having played a combined 36 minutes since Nov. 15 is sure to keep his workload limited. When […]

Sterling Shepard, Kadarius Toney Miss Practice
New York Giants wide receivers Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) and Kadarius Toney (oblique, quadriceps) both missed practice on Wednesday. Shepard hasn't played since Week 8. He's been productive when on the field in five games, but it's unrealistic to expect him to have a big workload if he's able to get back on the practice field […]

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot Draws First Start Of Year Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks small forward Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot has been elevated into the starting five for Wednesday's game against Indiana. The start marks Luwawu-Cabarrot's first as a member of the Hawks, having appeared in 14 games off the bench in the season's first six weeks. Scarcely utilized, it would be surprising to see the 26-year-old suddenly snag […]

Kyle Rudolph, John Ross Miss Practice Wednesday
New York Giants tight end Kyle Rudolph (ankle) and wide receiver John Ross (illness) both missed practice on Wednesday. Tight end Kaden Smith (knee) also missed practice. Rudolph did not play in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles, allowing Chris Myarick, who scored a touchdown, to see extra playing time alongside Evan Engram. If quarterback […]

Jimmy Butler Ruled Out Wednesday, May Miss More Time
Miami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler (tailbone) has been deemed unavailable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a tailbone contusion. Butler's absence has now reached two games, and it may not be coming to an end soon. With the team set to head out on a back-to-back weekend road trip in Indiana and […]

Auden Tate, Mike Thomas Miss Practice
Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Auden Tate (calf) and Mike Thomas (illness) both missed practice on Wednesday. Tate and Thomas have been battling for snaps as the No. 4 receiver behind rookie Ja'Marr Chase, Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins all season long, but Tate hasn't been available since Week 7. He's caught three of four targets […]

Jaylen Brown Will Play Wednesday, Have Minutes Cap Raised
Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game vs. Philadelphia, and he will also have his playing time ceiling raised to around the 32-minute mark. Brown entered play Wednesday averaging just a shade above 32 minutes per game for the season, so the move is essentially an indicator […]

Damien Williams Still Not Practicing
Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (calf) missed another practice to kick off the week on Wednesday. Williams also missed practice all of last week before missing his third straight game in the Thanksgiving win over the Detroit Lions. The 29-year-old has been sidelined since Week 8 and was surpassed on the RB depth chart […]

Cole Kmet Not Practicing Wednesday
Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (groin) was unable to practice on Wednesday due to a groin issue. Kmet has yet to find the end zone in his second NFL season, but he's coming off one of his best games of the year on Thanksgiving when he caught a season-high eight passes for 65 yards […]

Bam Adebayo Sustains Torn Thumb Ligament, Out Indefinitely
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thumb) has not only been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland, he will be on the shelf for much longer. The dynamic 24-year-old big man has sustained a torn UCL in his right thumb and will need to undergo surgery, which is expected to keep him out of action […]

Allen Robinson II, Marquise Goodwin Not Practicing
Chicago Bears wide receivers Allen Robinson II (hamstring) and Marquise Goodwin (foot, ribs) both missed practice on Wednesday. Robinson has missed the team's last two games, while Goodwin was inactive last Thursday on Thanksgiving in the win over the Detroit Lions. The 28-year-old Robinson has just one touchdown on the year and is in the […]

Jaden McDaniels Ruled Out Wednesday, Jarred Vanderbilt In
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Jaden McDaniels (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards, while Jarred Vanderbilt (illness) has received the green light to suit up. McDaniels' status is not looking rosy for Friday's outing, either, as the 21-year-old did not travel with the team for its trip east. Conversely, Vanderbilt being […]

Corey Davis Feeling Better This Week
New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis (groin) said he's feeling better this week than he did last week, although he still didn't practice on Wednesday. Davis injured his groin in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins and didn't play last Sunday in the win over the Houston Texans. While the 26-year-old is off to […]

Seahawks Sign Adrian Peterson To Practice Squad
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that the team has signed running back Adrian Peterson to their practice squad on Wednesday. Peterson filled in for the Tennessee Titans in three games when Derrick Henry (foot) went down with an injury, but he averaged just 3.0 yards per carry and was released. The 36-year-old could […]

Myles Turner Will Suit Up For Wednesday’s Game
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (illness) has been cleared to take the floor for Wednesday's contest against the Hawks despite previously battling an illness. The ailment cost Turner his first game of the season Monday, which allowed Domantas Sabonis to have near unabated access to as many rebounds as he could handle; that division of […]

Taysom Hill Confirmed As Week 13 Starter
New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill will indeed start on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys to kick off Week 13 action, according to a source.

Cam Reddish Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest
Atlanta Hawks small forward Cam Reddish (wrist) will miss his first outing of the season Wednesday against Indiana due to a sprained left wrist. Reddish warmed up earlier in the day in an effort to take the floor, but the Hawks will instead be thin on the wing with Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) and De'Andre Hunter […]

Anthony Edwards Will Suit Up Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Anthony Edwards (illness) has been given the green light to take the floor for Wednesday's game against Washington despite battling an illness. Edwards continues his string of appearing in every contest thus far in 2021-22, having morphed into an even more integral member of the Minnesota offense. Averaging 19.2 field-goal […]

Weather Won't Be A Factor For DeAndre Hopkins
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday for the first time since Oct. 22. The weather forecast on Sunday in Chicago calls for 45 degrees and possible rain, but head coach Kliff Kingsbury said that weather wouldn't be a factor in whether Hopkins returns to action. "We've just […]

Qadree Ollison Returns From Illness
Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith said that running back Qadree Ollison (illness) returned to practice on Wednesday.

[…]

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson (ankle) missed practice all week and has officially been ruled out for the Thursday night game against the New Orleans Saints.

Amari Cooper Officially Questionable Against Saints
Dallas Cowboys wide receivers Amari Cooper and Malik Turner (illness) are both questionable to play on Thursday night against the New Orleans Saints. Cooper returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after being activated from the COVID-19 list, and he's expected to play after missing the last two games. Still, given Cooper's long layoff and […]

No Injury Designation For Taysom Hill
New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill (foot) practiced in full all week and was removed from the final injury report for Thursday night's game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13. The Saints said earlier this week that as long as Hill got through the practice week fine, he'd start over Trevor Siemian. The 31-year-old […]
