Mattias Norlinder Makes NHL Debut On Thursday

Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mattias Norlinder will log his first NHL minutes in Thursday's home game against Pittsburgh. He's set to join David Savard on the second defensive pairing and will also see time on the second power-play unit. The 21-year-old has gone pointless in three AHL appearances this season, but he's been described as a […]

Rashod Bateman Misses Practice With Illness

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Rashod Bateman missed Thursday's practice with a non-COVID-19-related illness. Marquise Brown (thigh) has missed back-to-back practices days this week, too, so Baltimore's receiving corps is a bit questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Chicago Bears. Bateman has been a pretty solid WR3/flex for fantasy managers as the team's No. 2 […]

Ondrej Kase A Game-Time Decision On Thursday

Toronto Maple Leafs right wing Ondrej Kase is a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against the Rangers. The 26-year-old recently had a three-game goal streak and is riding a four-game point streak, but might now sit out because he got hurt by blocking a shot in Tuesday's 3-0 win over Nashville. Kase has featured on […]

Trevor Story Meets With Rangers

Free agent shortstop Trevor Story met with the Texas Rangers Tueday, according to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News. Story is a Dallas-area native, which could make for a strong fit. While incumbent shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa remains with the club, there are plenty of question marks around the infield which Story would certainly help […]

Damien Williams Looks Set To Return In Week 11

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) put in a full practice on Thursday after being limited to start the week on Wednesday. Williams looks on track to return to action following the bye after he sat out the last game in Week 9. The problem is that his fantasy value dried up long ago […]

Allen Robinson II Misses Another Practice

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (hamstring) missed his second straight day of practice on Thursday, putting his availability for the Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens in question. Robinson will probably need to practice in some fashion on Friday in order to avoid being ruled out entirely. On top of Robinson being […]

Tua Tagovailoa Practicing In Full

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (finger) went from a limited practice on Wednesday to practicing in full on Thursday. Tagovailoa served as Jacoby Brissett's backup the last two weeks due to a middle finger fracture on his left hand, but he entered mid-game last week with Brissett injured and led the team to a win […]

Mariners Add Julio Rodriguez And Others To 40-Man Roster

The Seattle Mariners have made several roster moves Thursday, adding minor league outfielders Julio Rodriguez and Alberto Rodriguez and left-handed pitcher Ray Kerr to their 40-man roster. They now have filled 39 spots. Julio Rodriguez is by far the biggest name of the three, and the move is intended to protect him and both other […]

T.J. Watt Looking Unlikely For Sunday Night

Pittsburgh Steelers pass-rusher T.J. Watt (hip, knee) missed his second practice of the week on Thursday and doesn't appear likely to play in Week 11 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers unless he returns to practice on Friday. Watt was considered week-to-week earlier in the week, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise […]

Chase Claypool Limited Again Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool (toe) was limited in practice again on Thursday. Claypool was inactive in last week's tie with the Detroit Lions, but two limited practices to begin the week have him trending towards a return to action for Sunday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. The downside is that Claypool […]

Rays Offer Wander Franco Massive Extension

The Tampa Bay Rays have reportedly made shortstop Wander Franco a massive extension offer. The contract the team has proposed is said to be worth between $150 and $200 million dollars over the course of at least 10 seasons. In just over two months and 308 plate appearances in the major leagues, Franco has slashed […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 11

This is not the time of the season to have a player put up a zero in your fantasy football lineup. Don’t bother thinking about anyone from the Los Angeles Rams or Denver Broncos being your last-minute lineup change savior. Both of those teams have the week off. There are certainly many other prospects on […]

Elijah Mitchell In Non-Contact Jersey Thursday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Elijah Mitchell (finger) was in a non-contact jersey on a side field during practice on Thursday. Mitchell, who had surgery on a broken finger on Tuesday, missed practice on Wednesday, but the Niners remain optimistic that he can play in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 23-year-old has […]

Elias Diaz Signs Extension With Rockies

Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz signed a three-year extension with the on Rockies on Thursday that will tie him to the club through the 2024 season. The $14.5 million deal covers his final year of arbitration and his first two years of free agency. The 31-year-old Diaz, who has been with Colorado for two seasons, […]

Kenny Golladay Off The Week 11 Injury Report

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) ended a three-game absence by returning in Week 9 and catching two of three targets for 28 yards before last week's bye. The time off apparently did Golladay well, and although he's been a disappointment (just one 100-yard game) in six games played in his first season […]

Kadarius Toney Practices On Thursday

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney was not on the injury report on Thursday and should play in Week 11 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The rookie has had a very up-and-down season (he collected 54 percent of his yards in just one game), but he remains an intriguing option nevertheless. Toney is one […]

Devontae Booker Logs Limited Practice

New York Giants running back Devontae Booker (hip) was limited in practice on Thursday. In Weeks 7-10, the backup has done a fine job filling in for Saquon Barkley in his absence, placing at RB20, just one spot behind Aaron Jones. However, now that Barkley seems to be returning and Booker is dealing with an […]

Saquon Barkley Limited In Practice

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) was limited in practice on Thursday and the Giants have seen good things from him coming out of their bye week. The superstar was originally thought to be on track for a quick return, but his ankle's swelling has taken longer than expected to heal. Now, however, […]

Sterling Shepard Doesn't Participate In Practice

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard (quad) did not participate in practice on Thursday. Shepard started the season hot with 28 receptions and 299 yards in his first four games; unfortunately, since then, his season has been derailed by injuries. The wideout has been bothered by this quad injury for quite some time, and […]

Geoff Swaim Misses Thursday's Practice

Tennessee Titans tight end Geoff Swaim (head) missed Thursday's practice due to a concussion. He was a new addition to Thursday's injury report after practicing on Wednesday. Fantasy managers who are looking to stream Swaim in deep-league formats should continue to monitor the situation, but mid-week injuries are usually a negative sign. The Titans tight […]

Antonio Brown Has A Long Ways To Go

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (ankle) has "a long way to go," according to a league source. Brown's social media presence and other sources led fantasy managers to believe that he was headed in the right direction, but now, his outlook appears pessimistic for Monday night against the New York Giants after he […]

Eagles Defense Looks For Consistency In Week 11

The Philadelphia Eagles defense will look for some consistency in a Week 11 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. The Eagles have mostly struggled on defense all season, but they've scored a defensive touchdown in two of their past three games and finished as the overall DST1 and DST5 in between a DST25 game. They've […]

Kenneth Gainwell - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell is just a stash option for now in most formats. When Miles Sanders (ankle) was lost to injured reserve, many thought that Gainwell would shoot into the every-week RB2 conversation as he'd be the one taking over the backfield. Instead, the Eagles used special teamer Boston Scott and […]

Boston Scott - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott could see his recent role evaporate if Miles Sanders (ankle) is able to return from injured reserve ahead of a Week 11 matchup with the New Orleans Saints. While Jordan Howard will likely maintain a role at least as a goal line and short yardage back, Scott seems destined […]

Jordan Howard - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (ankle) should retain a role in the running game regardless of whether Miles Sanders (ankle) is activated from injured reserve ahead of a Week 11 contest against the New Orleans Saints. It is currently unclear if Sanders will play in Week 11, but the Eagles did open his 21-day […]

Jake Elliott - Week 11 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is unlikely to repeat the strong Week 10 performance that made him the second-highest scoring fantasy kicker for the week. Elliott kicked three field goals and three extra points in that one, giving him his second best game of the season, but only his third game finishing in the top-15 […]

Rob Gronkowski Practices In Full Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) got in a full practice on Thursday, which is a good sign that he can return to action on Monday night against the New York Giants. Gronkowski returned prematurely in Week 8 after missing extended time with fractured ribs and a punctured lung, only to suffer from […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones, Anthony Schwartz Miss Practice

Cleveland Browns wide receivers Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) and Anthony Schwartz (concussion) both missed practice on Thursday. Peoples-Jones tweaked a groin injury on Wednesday that caused him to miss a game earlier this year, so his status isn't looking good for Sunday against the Detroit Lions. He rode a stationary bike on the side on Thursday. […]
