DeVante Parker Capitalizes In Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker was viewed as the clear No. 1 option for the Week 1 matchup against the New England Patriots. Newly added wideout Will Fuller was inactive while serving his suspension. That means, Parker was the main option with defensive back Stephon Gilmore unavailable. Parker used his size to his advance […]

Noah Fant Begins The Season Strong

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant got off to a strong start in 2021 in the 27-13 Week 1 season-opening win over the New York Giants on Sunday. Fant had a team-high eight targets and caught six of them (tied for the team lead) for 62 scoreless yards. The 23-year-old wasn't really a factor in […]

Salvon Ahmed Quiet In Win Over Patriots

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed is expected to be part of a three-back committee this season.

Tua Tagovailoa Underwhelming In Opener

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been receiving plenty of hype going into his sophomore campaign. The young quarterback worked hard during the offseason and looked solid during the preseason. However, Tagovailoa gave an underwhelming performance in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots. He completed 16-of-27 passing attempts for 202 yards and […]

Jose Ramirez Hitless In Third Straight Game

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in an 11-1 loss to the Brewers on Sunday.

Melvin Gordon III Breaks A Big Touchdown Run In Win Over Giants

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III saw three fewer carries (11) than rookie running back Javonte Williams in the 27-13 Week 1 win over the New York Giants on Sunday, but he outproduced him with 101 yards (9.2 yards per carry), including a 70-yard touchdown run to essentially ice the game in the second […]

Hunter Henry Quiet In Opener

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry was added as an impact red-zone target for this offense over the offseason. However, Henry wasn't able to make much of an impact during the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He hauled in all three of his targets for 31 yards in this one. It was […]

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith made his team debut against the Miami Dolphins in Week 1. Smith and Hunter Henry were added in the offseason to give this team big red zone targets. On Sunday, Smith hauled in all five of his targets for 42 yards in the loss. For what it's worth, […]

Bears Lose Two Left Tackles To Injury Sunday Night

Chicago Bears left tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) and offensive tackle Larry Borom (ankle) were both removed from the Sunday night game against the Los Angeles Rams due to injury. Peters, the starter, is questionable to return, while Borom is listed as doubtful. The 39-year-old Peters joined the team late in training camp and probably isn't […]

Shane Bieber Will Make Rehab Appearance Tuesday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Shane Bieber (shoulder) will make a rehab appearance with Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, according to Joe Noga of Cleveland.com.

Jakobi Meyers Targeted Nine Times In Loss

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers looked solid during the season opener against the Miami Dolphins. Meyers hauled in six of his nine targets for 44 yards in the loss.

Nelson Agholor Grabs Touchdown In Week 1

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor made some noise during his team debut against the Miami Dolphins in Week 1. He hauled in five of his seven targets for 72 yards and one touchdown in the loss. It was a nice outing by Agholor who was nursing an ankle injury coming into the game. […]

James White Finishes With Six Receptions

New England Patriots running back James White saw heavy usage during the Week 1 loss to the Miami Dolphins. The veteran back only rushed four times for 12 yards, but hauled in six of his seven targets for 49 yards through the air. It seems that White will continue to be the safety net for […]

Damien Harris Runs For 100 Yards

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris showed why he deserves to be the lead back during the Week 1 battle with the Miami Dolphins. He rushed 23 times for 100 yards and hauled in two receptions for 17 yards through the air. Sadly, Harris lost a fumble late in the game, so we'll see […]

Trea Turner Snaps 0-For-7 Skid Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers middle infielder Trea Turner went 1-for-4 with a walk in an 8-0 win over the Padres on Sunday.

Adam Trautman Sees Six Targets

New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman finished with three receptions for 18 yards on a team-leading six targets during Sunday's victory over Green Bay.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson finished with three receptions for 21 yards and two touchdowns on three targets in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

Marquez Callaway Manages 14 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway mustered one reception for 14 yards on two targets in Sunday's huge win over Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. Despite showing great chemistry with Jameis Winston in the preseason and the QB tossing five touchdowns in Sunday's game, Callaway missed out on all the action and put up […]

Anthony Firkser Catches Three Passes In Week 1

Tennessee Titans tight end Anthony Firkser caught three of four targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 38-13 Week 1 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The Titans' offense struggled on Sunday as QB Ryan Tannehill fumbled twice and was sacked six times. Firkser is the Titans' primary pass-catching tight end, with last's year starter Jonnu Smith […]

Deonte Harris Records 72 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris finished with two receptions for 72 yards and one touchdown on two targets in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

New Orleans Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. finished with 11 rushes for 50 yards and one reception for three yards on one target during Sunday's win over the Packers.

Alvin Kamara Hauls In Receiving Touchdown

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara finished with 20 rushes for 83 yards and three receptions for eight yards and a score on four targets in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

Jameis Winston Tosses Five Touchdowns

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston went 14-for-20 for 148 yards and five touchdowns in Sunday's dominating win over the Packers. Winston looked sharp in his first regular-season action since 2019. The QB who is normally known for picks went flawless in that department and that was an encouraging start to his Saints debut. As […]

Marshon Lattimore Considered Week-To-Week

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore (thumb) suffered a thumb injury in the Week 1 win over the Green Bay Packers and will need surgery to fix it, according to a source.
