Twins Decline Option On Alex Colome

The Minnesota Twins declined a 2022 option on relief pitcher Alex Colome, who will become a free agent. Colome signed on with the Twins last offseason to close, though it was a tale of two halves for the veteran, as his season got off to a disastrous start before he finished the year strong, pitching […]

Matthew Stafford Expected To Play Sunday Night

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) didn't practice all week, but head coach Sean McVay expects him to play on Sunday night against the Tennessee Titans in Week 9. Stafford is managing a back issue that isn't believed to be serious, but the fact that he was held out of practice all week makes […]

P.J. Washington Listed As Doubtful For Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (foot) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The young forward continues to be bothered by a foot issue that has sidelined him multiple times early in the season. His absence would likely mean more minutes for Mason Plumlee and Jalen McDaniels. Washington hasn't played well […]

Maxi Kleber Ruled Out For Saturday

Dallas Mavericks center Maxi Kleber (oblique) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. He continues to sit out while he battles a lingering oblique issue. That is something that is likely going to force him to miss several games. The Mavs are hopeful that Kristaps Porzingis (back) will suit up on […]

Tyler Conklin - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Minnesota Vikings tight end Tyler Conklin had his second straight double-digit PPR performance in the Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Now sitting at TE15 on the season, Conklin has carved out a consistent if not exciting role in the Vikings offense. The offense will still go through Dalvin Cook, Justin Jefferson and Adam […]

Cade Cunningham No Longer Restricted

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham is no longer restricted during back-to-back sets, according to head coach Dwane Casey. It appears the prized rookie guard is no longer limited after sitting out one back-to-back set. That means, Cunningham should be fully available for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He recorded his first double-double of the […]

Jrue Holiday Hopeful To Play On Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (ankle, illness) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. The organization is hopeful Holiday can return here after missing the last five contests. His return would send George Hill back to the bench and he'd lose most of his streaming appeal. It sounds like Holiday […]

Killian Hayes Tagged As Questionable For Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (thumb) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He injured his thumb during Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The team is calling it a left thumb sprain, but Hayes was able to finish out the contest. Cory Joseph and Frank Jackson would be asked to […]

Malcolm Brogdon Might Miss Friday's Game

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is currently dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so this could come down to a game time decision. Brogdon returned on Wednesday after missing three games due to a hamstring issue. He played well in that […]

Kristaps Porzingis Could Play This Weekend

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) reportedly looked good during Friday's practice, according to head coach Jason Kidd. The organization is hopeful that Porzingis is able to play on Saturday against the Boston Celtics. He is currently listed as questionable, but it sounds like he'll play unless he suffers a setback. Fantasy managers have heard […]

K.J. Osborn - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn started the season with 15 catches for 167 yards and a touchdown in his first two games, only to follow that up with three straight games of 26 yards or less. Before the Vikings Week 7 bye, Osborn got back on track against the Carolina Panthers with six catches […]

Jonathan Marchessault Snipes In Vegas Victory

Vegas Golden Knights forward Jonathan Marchessault netted two goals on Thursday, defeating the Senators 5-1. The veteran winger scored his third and fourth goals, and he now has four goals and two helpers in ten contests. Marchessault has been playing on the Golden Knights first-line due to several injuries in the team's lineup. Despite a […]

Christian McCaffrey Has Chance To Play Sunday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring), who is officially listed as questionable, has a chance to play in Sunday's game against New England. McCaffrey is not yet on the active roster -- the team has until 4 p.m. on Saturday to activate him -- but head coach Matt Rhule is optimistic that the star […]

Sam Darnold Questionable For Sunday

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold (concussion, shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Darnold could clear the concussion protocols by Saturday, though head coach Matt Rhule noted that the shoulder injury is as much of an issue as the concussion. The signal-caller was a limited participant at Friday's practice, with Rhule leaving the […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones Draws Questionable Tag

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) and tight end Harrison Bryant (thigh) are both listed as questionable for the Week 9 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Peoples-Jones will likely serve as the No. 2 behind Jarvis Landry now that Odell Beckham Jr. is no longer with the team, so he could have some deep-league […]

Adam Thielen - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen led the team in targets and yards and added a touchdown in the Week 8 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Thielen now has six touchdowns on the season and has found the end zone in all but two games. He will look to continue his solid play against a […]

Jarvis Landry Will Play Against Bengals

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) was removed from the team's final injury report in Week 9 and will play against the Cincinnati Bengals. It will be Landry's first game after the team officially released Odell Beckham Jr. on Friday morning. Landry should remain quarterback Baker Mayfield's top aerial target, but he'll remain in […]

Austin Dillon Not Expected To Move Up Much At Phoenix

Austin Dillon had a couple of top-10 results in his racing career at Phoenix. The last one came in 2018. During the fall race last year, the Richard Childress Racing driver saved the car a few times. He ended up guiding the car home to a respectable 18th-place finish. The No. 3 car is unlikely […]

Preston Williams - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams was a healthy scratch from the Week 8 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. In fact, Williams has only played in three games this season heading into the Week 9 contest versus the Houston Texans. Although, he could be back on the field for this game with DeVante Parker (hamstring, […]

Tyler Reddick May Be Avoided At Phoenix

Tyler Reddick has not had success in three tries at the Phoenix Raceway. Most forget his Spring 2020 debut looked great as Reddick was near the lead before he crashed. After that, the past two races have been ordinary to disappointing for the Richard Childress Racing driver. Reddick could not even finish on the lead […]

James Robinson Questionable For Week 9

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel) is listed as questionable for the Week 9 game against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. "It's a ... pain threshold [thing]," head coach Urban Meyer said. "He's a tough, tough cat." Meyer also said that Robinson will test his foot in practice on Friday and see how it […]

Ryan Blaney Could Factor Into Phoenix Race On Sunday

Ryan Blaney led 35 laps during the Spring race at Phoenix. The Team Penske car was quite fast and looking very good. He faded late but managed to finish tenth. Aside from the Spring 2020 race, Blaney has an average finish of 5.5 over that four-race span. He is fast enough but seemed to lose […]

Mike Gesicki - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki is coming off a fairly disappointing performance in Week 8. However, he should rebound nicely against the Houston Texans this week. A defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to tight ends this season. The absence of DeVante Parker (shoulder, hamstring) has opened up more targets for Gesicki […]

Jaylen Waddle - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been a frustrating player to roster this season. His target share has been inconsistent, but has picked up over the last few games. The absence of DaVante Parker (hamstring, shoulder) has increased Waddle's volume lately. It sounds like Parker is in danger of sitting out the Week 9 […]

Cesar Hernandez Has Option Declined By White Sox

Chicago White Sox second baseman Cesar Hernandez will become a free agent after the club declined its $6 million dollar option on him. Hernandez hit a career-high 21 homers this past season, but slashed a mediocre .232/.308/.386 in 570 at-bats for both Chicago and Cleveland. This represented a major step back for Hernandez in overall […]

Christopher Bell Not A Threat To Win At Phoenix

Christopher Bell expects to have a fast car at Phoenix but the downforce may be an issue. It was the last time in the Spring. That kept Bell out of the top five more than likely. He did finish ninth and that was a solid result for the No. 20 car. Bell has improved in […]
