BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (PPR only) ROSTERED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Derrick Henry was spotted receiving medical attention with his cleat off in the first half on Sunday but played out the game, only to have us wake up on Monday to news that he suffered a season-ending foot injury.

Adrian Peterson (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Yes, that Adrian Peterson. All-Day AP has been signed to the Titans' practice squad and will serve as the discount replacement for Derrick Henry. How much juice does the 36-year-old have left in the tank? He averaged 3.9 yards per carry for […]

Giants Decline Johnny Cueto's Option
The San Francisco Giants declined starting pitcher Johnny Cueto's $22 million option for the 2022 season on Friday, making him a free agent. Instead, the veteran right-hander will receive a $5 million buyout. As he nears the back end of his career, Cueto has become a back-of-the-rotation starter after missing most of the 2018 and […]

Kendrick Bourne - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has been able to make the most of his chances this season. Over the last two weeks, Bourne has four receptions for 35 yards or more in each contest. He is the third option on the depth chart, but remains involved in the passing attack every week. That […]

Javon Kinlaw Undergoes ACL Reconstruction
San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (knee) recently underwent a successful ACL reconstruction on his injured right knee to fix chronic changes in his knee. The 49ers are hoping that the 24-year-old first-round pick in 2020 can return to full health for the start of the 2022 campaign. Kinlaw was working through knee issues […]

Nelson Agholor - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor has put together two fairly decent weeks after struggling through the first part of the season. Over the last two weeks, Agholor has 50 or more receiving yards in each contest. Although, that streak might come to an end against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. A defense […]

Dan Arnold (TE, JAX) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you remember, the Jaguars traded for Dan Arnold a few weeks ago and Arnold debuted for Jacksonville back in Week 4... only to put up a dud of just 4.9 PPR points against Cincy. All he could do back then was […]

Jakobi Meyers - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has not scored a touchdown through the first eight games of the season. Despite that, Meyers has remained a fairly reliable PPR option in fantasy formats. He has seen 68 targets and remains heavily involved in the passing attack. That should remain the case against the Carolina Panthers […]

Damien Williams Trending In The Wrong Direction
Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams (knee) missed his second straight practice of the week on Friday. If Williams is unable to get on the practice field on Saturday, he's unlikely to play on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers after he was injured in the Week 8 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Initially […]

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has seen more action over the last few games. He wasn't involved much to begin the season, but has seen his carries increase over the course of the last month or so. Sadly, the rookie running back hasn't been able to find much success at the professional level. […]

Brandon Bolden - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots running back Brandon Bolden has been asked to pick up the slack in the absence of James White (hip) this season. He has done a fairly decent job, but doesn't produce the same type of impact as White in fantasy leagues. Bolden has made a splash a few times, but his usage […]

Kamaru Usman Set To Defend His Title Yet Again
Since winning the UFC middleweight title in March of 2019, Kamaru Usman has successfully defended his crown four times with a fifth attempt on the way as he is set for a rematch with Colby Covington to headline UFC 268 on Saturday night. One of the most dominant champions in the UFC today, Usman has […]

Darnell Mooney Pops Up On Injury Report Friday
Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) was added to the team's Week 9 injury report on Friday after he got in a limited practice. Mid-week injuries are usually never a good thing, but the fact that Mooney was still able to practice on a limited basis is a good sign. It's an injury that […]

Damien Harris - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots running back Damien Harris has turned it on over the last few weeks. In fact, Harris has five touchdowns and two games of over 100 rushing yards in the last four contests. He'll head into a matchup against the Carolina Panthers who rank 19th in rush DVOA this season. Although, Carolina is […]

Colby Covington Takes Another Crack At The Championship
After his fifth-round TKO loss to the champion in December of 2019, Colby Covington (16-2) rebounded nicely with a fifth-round TKO of his own to knock out former champion Tyson Woodley in September of last year. It's been about 14 months, and Covington returns to action to take another crack at current champion Kamaru Usman, […]

Mac Jones - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football
New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is coming off a below-average performance during the Week 8 win against the Los Angeles Chargers. Jones has been able to help the Patriots stay in games, but he isn't an ideal fantasy option right now. He'll head into a Week 9 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, who rank […]

Chris Boswell Should Be Good To Go For Monday Night
Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell (concussion) was a full participant at practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday. Boswell suffered a concussion on a fake field-goal attempt in the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns, but it looks like he has cleared the league's concussion protocol, and he should be fine to play […]

Alexander Holtz Makes His NHL Debut Against Los Angeles
New Jersey Devils right winger Alexander Holtz will make his NHL debut on Friday night against the Los Angeles Kings. Holtz enjoyed his short time in Utica scoring five goals in four games. It was clear that he was a man apart in the AHL. New Jersey needs a spark and Holtz can at least […]

Eric Ebron Returns To Limited Practice Friday
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron (ankle) managed to get in a limited practice on Friday after sitting out Thursday's session. Ebron was inactive for the Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns, but he seems to be trending in the right direction to make it back on Monday night against the Chicago Bears. Even […]

Cardinals To Play It Safe With Kyler Murray?
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Week 9 against the San Francisco 49ers, and general manager Steve Keim said the team needs to "be smart" with the signal-caller and "think about the big picture." It sounds awfully similar to the company line that the Dallas Cowboys used a week […]

Rose Namajunas Has A Chance To Assert Her Dominance
With only 10 wins in her young MMA career, Rose Namajunas (10-4) is already on her second reign as the UFC's strawweight champion. Namajunas captured the title with a spectacular first-round head kick to dethrone then-champion Weili Zhang, who will get the rematch in Saturday's co-main event. A finisher even in the strawweight ranks, seven […]

Odell Beckham Jr. To Be Placed On Waivers Monday
After days of negotiations, the Cleveland Browns and wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. reached a settlement on Friday that will result in him being placed on waivers on Monday, according to league sources. Beckham can be claimed by an interested team as soon as Tuesday at 4pm ET. The 29-year-old petitioned for his exit in […]

Zach LaVine Available For Rematch With Philly
Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (thumb) is listed as available ahead of the rematch versus Philadelphia. LaVine has been dealing with a left thumb sprain for a few weeks. However, he has continued to play through it, so his likely presence against Philly isn't much of a revelation. On Wednesday, the 26-year-old accumulated 27 points […]

Chargers Secondary Will Be Vulnerable On Sunday
Los Angeles Chargers starting cornerbacks Michael Davis (hamstring) and Asante Samuel Jr. (concussion) have both been ruled out in Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles, while safety Alohi Gilman (ankle) is doubtful to play. As a result, cornerbacks Tevaughn Campbell and Ryan Smith are expected to step into starting roles this weekend. The Chargers defense […]

Justin Jackson Ruled Out Against Philadelphia
Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (quadriceps) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 9. Jackson was injured in the Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots. Joshua Kelley was a healthy scratch last weekend, but he and rookie Larry Rountree III […]

Chris Evans, Auden Tate Questionable For Week 9
Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Chris Evans (hamstring) and wide receiver Auden Tate (thigh) were both limited in practice all week and are questionable for Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns. Evans missed the Week 8 loss to the New York Jets, but he's trending in the right direction to make his return and serve […]

Royce O'Neale Listed On Injury Report Versus Heat
Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale (ankle) is once against listed on the injury report. Although, this time, it's for Saturday's showdown versus Miami in South Beach. The 28-year-old is currently dealing with a sprained right ankle, and he had the same designation leading up to Thursday's victory over the Hawks. However, O'Neale did manage to […]

Marcus Maye Done For The Season
New York Jets safety Marcus Maye (Achilles) suffered a torn Achilles in the Thursday night loss to the Indianapolis Colts and will miss the rest of the season. Maye went down with a non-contact injury in the second half on Thursday, and it didn't look good. It's extremely bad timing for the 28-year-old, who is […]
