Giannis Antetokounmpo And Others Sitting Out Friday

Milwaukee Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) will not play in the team's preseason game against the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.

Terrace Marshall Jr. Tough To Trust In Week 5

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. could have a tough path to fantasy relevance against the Eagles in Week 5. Marshall has yet to eclipse 50 receiving yards in a game and is coming off of a two-yard effort in a Week 4 loss to Dallas. The rookie has the skills to succeed […]

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson is looking for a bounce-back game in Week 5 against the visiting Chicago Bears.

Despite not having his best stuff against […]

Will Kenyan Drake Make An Impact In Week 5?

Las Vegas Raiders running back Kenyan Drake will look to be a role player in Week 5 against the Chicago Bears, but it isn't clear how much work he will get.

Marina Rodriguez Hoping For Third Straight Win

Set to fight in a main event after back-to-back wins, Marina Rodriguez (14-1-2) will face Mackenzie Dern in Saturday night's main event. With striking power and the ability to go the distance, Rodriguez will absolutely have to think twice before going to the mat with Dern. Six of her 14 career wins have come by […]

Alcides Escobar Re-Signs With Nationals

Washington Nationals shortstop Alcides Escobar re-signed with the club, agreeing to a one-year deal. Escobar appeared in the majors for the first time since 2018 this past season, slashing .288/.340/.404 in 319 at-bats with four homers and three steals.

Jared Gooden Hoping To Roll To Another Victory

It was a rough start for Jared Gooden (18-6) in the UFC, as he dropped his first two bouts. Since then, he has rebounded to score a nice first-round knockout back in July, and he's looking for more victories just like that. A dangerous finisher regardless of where the bout goes, 15 of his 18 […]

The New England Patriots have ruled out right guard Shaq Mason (abdomen) and right tackle Trent Brown (calf) for Week 5 against the Houston Texans, while left tackle Isaiah Wynn and left guard Mike Onwenu remain on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

Kyle Schwarber Reaches Base Twice, Swipes A Bag

Boston Red Sox outfielder Kyle Schwarber swiped a base in Thursday's series-opening game against the Tampa Bay Rays, and if you bet on that as the offensive highlight for Boston heading into the game, you're probably much richer than you started. Schwarber went 2-for-4 and the Red Sox were shut out in a 5-0 loss. […]

Derek Carr Should Have Better Performance In Week 5

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is looking to have a much better day at the office as his team squares off against the Chicago Bears in Week 5.

David Njoku Questionable For Week 5

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) is questionable for Week 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers after getting in a limited practice on Friday.

Eduardo Rodriguez Gets Five Outs Thursday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez started Thursday's Game 1 against the Tampa Bay Rays and didn't last long, recording five outs and giving up two runs on two hits and two walks with one strikeout.

Justin Jackson Doubtful To Face The Browns

Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson (groin) is listed as doubtful to play in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns after missing practice on Thursday and Friday.

Boston Red Sox first baseman/outfielder Kyle Schwarber will bat leadoff in Game 2 of the ALDS against Shane McClanahan and the Tampa Bay Rays, according to Christopher Smith of MassLive.com.

Dustin Hopkins An Unreliable Option

Washington Football Team kicker Dustin Hopkins is not a reliable option heading into Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints. Hopkins made his only field goal in Week 4, but he converted on just one of three extra-point attempts.
