Blake Jarwin - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is not a starting option in the majority of fantasy leagues for Week 8. The Cowboys will take on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football and despite Jarwin's touchdown in Week 6 before the Cowboys bye week, he's still watched his season turn him into a backup depth […]

Van Jefferson - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson has been building some momentum over the last few weeks, and he has a great matchup in Week 8 against the Houston Texans to keep that rolling.

We know what Deshaun Watson can do when he is on the field. Last season, he led the NFL with 4,823 passing yards. He's thrown 104 touchdowns over the better part of three and a half seasons. He has taken what looks to be a terrible team and made it into a playoff contender on […]

Jarvis Landry Says He'll Play In Week 8

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry (knee) said he will "for sure" be able to play in Week 8 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers after suffering a new knee injury in last Thursday's win over the Denver Broncos.

Matt Gay - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay has one of the best jobs in the NFL this season, and that will continue in Week 8 against the Houston Texans. His offense is able to move the ball nearly at will against all opponents, and they give him plenty of scoring opportunities. The Texans have given up […]

La'el Collins Working At Tackle And Guard

Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman La'el Collins is back from his five-game suspension and is working at both tackle and guard in practice this week, as head coach Mike McCarthy said that Terence Steele will continue to start at right tackle in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings. "We're going to push him in there," McCarthy […]

Melvin Ingram Wants Out Of Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Melvin Ingram wants out of Pittsburgh after seeing a reduction in his playing time recently.

Dalvin Cook - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook avoided the injury report Wednesday for the first time in weeks. The Week 7 bye came at just the right time.

Added Weight Responsible For Brandon Aiyuk's Poor Start?

San Francisco 49ers second-year wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk said he put on extra weight in the offseason in an effort to get stronger, and head coach Kyle Shanahan said that "possibly" is the reason for the pass-catcher's slow start in 2021. Aiyuk led the team in receiving in his rookie year and averaged 62 yards […]

Amari Cooper - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

San Francisco 49ers rookie quarterback Trey Lance (knee), the third overall pick in this year's draft, is expected to return to backup duties after returning to a limited practice on Wednesday. Head coach Kyle Shanahan reiterated that Lance's health and readiness, not the team's record, would dictate how much he'll play and when he'll take […]

Kirk Cousins - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has been one of the best bargains at the position all season. Completing 69.5% of his passes while averaging 295 yards per game with 13 touchdowns and only two interceptions, fantasy managers have to be thrilled with a player that was drafted around the QB18. Before the Vikings Week 7 […]

Justin Fields Has Struggled In His Rookie Season

Chicago Bears first-round rookie quarterback Justin Fields, who was drafted 11th overall, has the lowest passer rating (61.8) of any current starter heading into Week 8.

CeeDee Lamb - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will look to stay hot in the Cowboys Week 8 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Lamb went into the Cowboys bye week by putting up a 9-142-2 line and ending up as the overall WR1 in most scoring formats. He had a little bit of a dip in production […]

Tony Pollard - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard remains a solid option in Week 8 fantasy lineups.

All of […]

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said there's "absolutely" a "high chance" that running back Mark Ingram II will make his season debut for the Saints in Week 8 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the team acquired him from the Houston Texans on Wednesday.

Ezekiel Elliott - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will look for another 100-yard game in Week 8 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Dak Prescott - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (calf) is a strong fantasy option, like always, if he plays in a Week 8 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Minnesota Vikings.

Seahawks Defense Could Struggle In Week 8

The Seattle Seahawks defense has been one of the worst groups on that side of the ball this season, and their matchup in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars isn't the best. The Jaguars have yet to score more than 23 points in a game this season, but the Seahawks have held opponents to fewer […]

Rams Defense Is A Great Option In Week 8

The Los Angeles Rams defense is riding a hot streak that should continue into Week 8 against the Houston Texans.

Gordon Hayward Fills Up The Box Score In Win Over Magic

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward did a little bit of everything in Wednesday's win over the Magic.
