Radko Gudas Misses First Game Of The Season

Florida Panthers defenseman Radko Gudas (undisclosed) is set to miss his first game of the season after sitting out Wednesday's practice. Interim head coach Andrew Brunette hasn't completely ruled him out, but it sure looks like the Czech banger won't play. Gudas boasts only two points for the season but has played a very efficient […]

Jrue Holiday Could Return Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (ankle) could return to action on Friday against the Knicks after a five-game absence. Holiday has been dealing with a sprained left ankle, and reportedly hasn't been feeling well on top of that, with the Bucks content to take things slow with him following his quick turnaround this summer. The […]

Nicolas Roy Moving Up To Top Line

Vegas Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy is expected to center the first line in Thursday's battle with the Senators. The 24-year-old joined Jonathan Marchessault and Reilly Smith at Wednesday's practice. With William Karlsson (foot) out, Brett Howden got a look on the line in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to Toronto but didn't see a lot of […]

D'Angelo Russell Fails To Practice Thursday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) missed Thursday's practice. Russell has been dealing with a sprained right ankle, which limited him to side work with a trainer at Thursday's session, as the young guard worked on physical therapy with a medicine ball. It sounds like Russell is trending towards missing Friday's rematch with the Clippers, […]

Chris Boswell Puts In A Limited Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell (concussion) was able to practice on a limited basis on Thursday after suffering a concussion during a fake field-goal attempt in the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers signed kicker Josh Lambo to their practice squad earlier this week as insurance in case Boswell doesn't clear the […]

Adam Brooks Joins Lineup With Jonathan Drouin Out

Montreal Canadiens center Adam Brooks will replace Jonathan Drouin (head) in the lineup in Thursday's matchup against the Islanders. Drouin was hit in the head by a shot in Tuesday's 3-0 win over Detroit and left the game after taking only a handful of shifts. He was the morning skate on Thursday but the Canadiens […]

Joel Embiid Likely To Play Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee), listed as questionable, plans to play in Thursday's game against the Pistons. Embiid generally sits out one-half of the 76ers' back-to-backs when dealing with an injury but reportedly appears likely to tough this one out against a bad Pistons team. Perhaps it speaks to his knee feeling better, which […]

Eric Ebron Doesn't Practice On Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron (hamstring) missed practice on Thursday after sitting out of the team's Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns. Ebron isn't off to a good start if he wants to make it back on Monday night in Week 9 against the Chicago Bears. Even if the 28-year-old returns to practice […]

Scottie Barnes Set To Play Friday

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (thumb), absent for the last two games, will return to action on Friday against the Cavaliers. Head coach Nick Nurse had said that the injury wasn't all that bad, with the team describing it as a jammed thumb, though they held the rookie out of Monday's shootaround as a precautionary […]

Sterling Shepard Continues To Miss Practice This Week

New York Giants wide receivers Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) and Dante Pettis (shoulder) both missed a second day of practice this week on Thursday after they were both injured in the Monday night loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. John Ross (quadriceps) was also added to the Week 9 injury report and was limited on Thursday. […]

Alex Barre-Boulet Set To Join Second Line On Thursday

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Alex Barre-Boulet looks set to join the second line on Thursday against Toronto after filling the role at the morning skate. Mathieu Joseph has previously escorted Ondrej Palat and Steven Stamkos but will now drop down to the fourth line. Barre-Boulet has impressed lately, putting together a three-game point streak in […]

Saquon Barkley Not Looking Good For A Week 9 Return

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley's (knee) false-positive COVID-19 result has kept him out of practice for the last two days, and head coach Joe Judge didn't sound optimistic when discussing the running back's chances of returning in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders. "I wouldn't eliminate it," Judge said, "but it's not […]

LeBron James To Miss At least A Week

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (abdominal) will miss at least a week of action, per Shams Charania of The Athletic. James has already dealt with an ankle injury and now has an abdominal strain, with Charania reporting that the Lakers want to be cautious with their star early on in the season. The King's […]

Dylan Larkin Remains Unavailable On Thursday

Detroit Red Wings center Dylan Larkin (personal) will miss a second straight game on Thursday against Boston. The Red Wings captain is currently away from the team for personal reasons and Michael Rasmussen centered the first line in Tuesday's 3-0 loss at Montreal. The 22-year-old has registered four assists with 17 shots, 12 hits and […]

Damien Williams Misses Practice Thursday

Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) did not take part in practice on Thursday. Williams had already been passed up on the team's RB depth chart by rookie Khalil Herbert before he suffered a knee injury in the Week 8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Now there's a chance that he won't even […]

Sammy Watkins On Track To Return In Week 9?

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) returned to the practice field on Thursday after missing the previous day. Watkins has missed the last two games and had last week's bye to rest up. If he is able to suit up this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings, it would mark the first time that quarterback […]

Dawson Knox Misses Another Practice

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hand) missed another practice on Thursday. Considering that the youngster has already missed a few weeks, it seems like he'll miss at least one more. Prior to this injury, Knox was looking like one of the breakout tight ends of the year, but his season has since been derailed. […]

Latavius Murray Still Absent Thursday

Baltimore Ravens running back Latavius Murray (ankle) is missing his second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. Murray missed the team's Week 7 game and then had last week's bye to rest up, but apparently he's still not ready. If he were to miss his second straight game this weekend against the Minnesota […]

Cole Beasley Misses Practice

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley (ribs) missed practice on Thursday. Beasley has had a nice season following his breakout in 2021 and was one of the keys to the Bills' win against the Miami Dolphins in Week 8 in which he amassed 110 yards. Even if Beasley plays, he's fringy enough that he should […]

Jarvis Landry Back At Practice Thursday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) returned to the practice field on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Landry was limited in practice on Thursday, but barring any setbacks on Friday, we would expect him to suit up in Week 9 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 28-year-old had already basically been the team's top […]

Kenyan Drake - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders running back Kenyan Drake looks to make a big impact in Week 9 against the host New York Giants. The Alabama product came up big for the Silver & Black in Week 7 when he registered 14 carries for 69 yards and a rushing touchdown and three receptions on three targets for […]

Zay Jones - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Zay Jones looks to make an impact in Week 9 against the host New York Giants. The 26-year-old East Carolina product has been overshadowed by the rest of the receiving corps for the better part of the season and only has six receptions for 115 yards and one touchdown but […]

Kyle Pitts - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is coming off of the worst game of his career ahead of a Week 9 contest against the Saints. Pitts struggled against the Panthers last week, but it's worth noting that he racked up over 100 receiving yards in each of the two games before that. The budding star […]

Bryan Edwards - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Bryan Edwards looks to have a big week against the host New York Giants. The 22-year-old was only targeted four times in Week 7's victory over the Philadelphia Eagles but is expected to see his workload go up with Henry Ruggs III no longer on the team. Plus, Edwards caught […]

Eagles Defense Not Worth Chasing Points With In Week 9

The Philadelphia Eagles defense was outstanding in Week 8, putting up the overall best fantasy performance of the week from the position. Their DST1 finish came from one fumble recovery, a defensive touchdown, six sacks, and only six points allowed. They won't get Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions this week though. Instead, they'll face […]

Jalen Reagor Returns To Practice

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor (ankle) returned to practice on Thursday. At the beginning of the season, the sophomore was a popular late-round pick, but as the season has progressed, it's become clear that Jalen Hurts will not support many fantasy weapons and that Reagor will not be successful in this situation. Reagor's return […]

Kenny Golladay Finally Returns To Practice Thursday

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) practiced for the first time on Thursday in nearly a month since suffering a hyperextended knee in Week 5. It was only a limited session for Golladay on Thursday, but it's major progress for the 28-year-old, and he could have a chance at returning this Sunday against […]

Hunter Renfrow - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow looks to come out of his team's bye week well-rested for a Week 9 matchup against the host New York Giants. Despite not tallying a touchdown in his last couple of games, the Clemson product continues to make big catches when Vegas needs them most and was pivotal […]

Derek Carr - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr looks to come out of his team's bye week well-rested for a Week 9 matchup against the host New York Giants. The 30-year-old signal-caller is coming off his strongest showing of the season as he completed 31-of-34 passes for 323 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in a […]
