Atlanta Hawks power forwards Danilo Gallinari (rest) and Solomon Hill (rest) have both been held out of action for Wednesday's preseason contest against the Cavaliers. Head coach Nate McMillan made the call to focus on younger players for the early-season warmup contest, allowing his veterans to get some rest. John Collins draws the start at […]

College Fantasy Football DFS Rankings: Week 6

Last week, the Alabama and Ole Miss game felt like a game that was going to shoot out, when it flopped it left a lot of dead lineups.  This week there is not that one game that you must play, but there are a ton of spots where an eruption could happen. This week feels […]

Christian McCaffrey Could Be Game-Time Decision In Week 5

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said that running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday, and he could be a game-time decision in Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles. CMC has made great progress from his hamstring injury and could return to lead-back duties this weekend. The No. 1 overall pick […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Won't Practice Wednesday

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) won't practice on Wednesday, but he is feeling better and hasn't been ruled out for Week 5 against the Arizona Cardinals. Garoppolo initially thought he'd be out for multiple weeks on Sunday after missing the entire second half of the loss to […]

Trae Young Ruled Out For Wednesday’s Game

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (quad) has been deemed unavailable to play in Wednesday's preseason contest against Cleveland. Young is battling a right quad contusion, with the Hawks having little reason to thrust their star point guard into action without him at 100 percent this early in the year. Delon Wright will draw the […]

Amari Cooper Misses Practice Wednesday

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (hamstring) missed practice on Wednesday. Cooper had a touchdown in the Week 4 win over the Carolina Panthers, but he played just 47.5 percent of the offensive snaps behind both CeeDee Lamb and Cedrick Wilson, and he saw only three targets in the passing game. The 27-year-old will attempt […]

Trey Lyles Faces Additional Frontcourt Minutes This Year

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Trey Lyles is joining his fourth franchise ahead of his seventh NBA season. Now with the Pistons, Lyles, at 6-foot-9, could see additional minutes in the frontcourt while manning the center position, per head coach Dwane Casey. Isaiah Stewart stands to see the bulk of minutes at the five, while Kelly […]

Ezekiel Elliott Working Through Knee Issue

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) is dealing with some knee pain and didn't practice on Wednesday, but he plans to return to practice on Thursday and play through the issue in Week 5 against the division-rival New York Giants. It's nothing to worry about for now, but it's worth watching. Elliott had a […]

Devin Booker Remains Days Away From Return

Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Devin Booker has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason contest against the Lakers, and a return to game action remains days away with him being in the league's COVID-19 protols. Booker has resumed warming up before games, so his long-term status should be in little doubt. Landry Shamet started Phoenix's preseason opener […]

Chris Carson To Be Game-Time Decision Thursday

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (neck) didn't practice again on Wednesday, and the Seahawks aren't expected to decide his status until right before the Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Rams. On a short week coming off a game where Carson wasn't very effective, it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see the […]

Bears Defense Has Plenty To Prove In Week 5

The Chicago Bears defense will be out to prove that they are for real this season heading into their Week 5 matchup against the Raiders. The Bears currently is tied for the league-lead in the NFL with 14 sacks and has shown a knack for turnovers. Now they will face a Raiders offensive line that […]

Jimmy Graham Not A Week 5 Option

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham is not on the fantasy radar despite a favorable matchup Week 5 against the Raiders. Las Vegas currently is allowing the 10th most fantasy points to opposing tight ends but the veteran tight end has been non-existent. His snap-count is at a career-low and second-year player Cole Kmet is […]

Cole Kmet Gets Favorable Tilt Against Raiders

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet will have a favorable matchup in Week 5 against the Raiders. It has been an extremely disappointing start for the former second-round pick and he has only eight catches for 59 yards through the first four games. But opportunity knocks this weekend against a Raiders defense that is allowing […]

Can Darnell Mooney Deliver Encore?

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney will try and build off his huge Week 4 performance heading into this weekend's matchup against the Raiders. Mooney delivered five catches for 125 yards in the team's 24-14 win over the Lions and connected deep with rookie quarterback Justin Fields multiple times for huge gains. The Bears have […]

Can Allen Robinson II Step Up?

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II will try and kickstart his season in Week 5 against the Raiders. The veteran receiver posted a season-high 63 yards last week against the Lions with rookie quarterback Justin Fields under center but Robinson was tagged as a borderline WR1 before the season began. The Bears will face […]

Curtis Samuel Sits Out Practice

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) was held out of practice on Wednesday. This is likely just a rest day as Samuel recently returned to action following a lengthy stint on the injured reserve list. It is something to monitor as the week progresses, but a missed practice on Wednesday likely doesn't put […]

Logan Thomas Placed On Injured Reserve

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas (hamstring) has been placed on the injured reserve list and will miss a minimum of four weeks. Ricky Seals-Jones will see an expanded role in his absence, but he is an unreliable fantasy option moving forward. Washington signed tight end Jace Sternberger to their active roster, so this […]

Antonio Gibson Misses Practice Wednesday

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shin) was held out of practice on Wednesday. Gibson has been dealing with this injury since last week, so it doesn't seem to be something that will prevent him from playing. Although a DNP isn't ideal, his workload on Thursday and Friday will likely determine his status for […]

Christian McCaffrey Returns To Practice Wednesday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) returned to the practice field on Wednesday, his first on-field work since straining his hamstring against the Houston Texans on Sept. 23 in Week 3. It's good news, but the real indicator of McCaffrey's status for Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles will come on Thursday. McCaffrey entered […]

Patrick Reed Is A Risky Choice At TPC Summerlin

Patrick Reed's talent and winning upside is undeniable, but we're not convinced that this is the best week to deploy him. The last time we saw Reed was at the Tour Championship, where he lost 1.4 strokes off the tee and 5.2 strokes on approach. While the nine-time PGA Tour winner has had more than […]

Hank Lebioda In A Perfect Buy-Low Spot At Shriners

Hank Lebioda was a popular player this summer, as he recorded three consecutive top-eight finishes at the Travelers Championship, Rocket Mortgage Classic, and John Deere Classic. Since then, Lebioda has cooled considerably and missed three cuts in a row. While the results show a player that is lost, a deeper investigation actually proves that the […]

Will Zalatoris Searching For Breakthrough Victory In Las Vegas

Will Zalatoris' talent is undeniable, and it's hard to argue that he is in store for a very long and successful career on the PGA Tour. While yet to break through with his first career PGA Tour victory, the Wake Forest product is indubitably percolating. Zalatoris is coming off a 14th-place finish at the Sanderson […]

Ryder Cup Star Scottie Scheffler Returns To Action In Las Vegas

Scottie Scheffler is coming off an impressive performance at the Ryder Cup, where he both successfully partnered with Bryson DeChambeau and took down the No. 1 player in the world in singles. There is certainly reason to believe that the young Texas native can carry the momentum to this week's PGA Tour event in Las […]

Mito Pereira Looks To Continue Elite Ball-Striking In The Desert

Mito Pereira has been a popular option for fantasy managers since bursting onto the scene last summer at the Barbasol Championship. Fantasy managers are justifiably enamored with the young Chilean due to his gaudy ball-striking numbers. Pereira is coming off a performance at the Sanderson Farms Championship where he gained 2.2 strokes off the tee […]

Sam Burns Looks To Go Back-To-Back In Las Vegas

Sam Burns is coming off his second career PGA Tour victory last week at the Sanderson Farms Championship. Burns' ball-striking was downright unbelievable in Mississippi. The LSU product gained 6.1 strokes off the tee, 8.3 strokes on approach, and was able to win the tournament despite losing two strokes putting. What's most encouraging about Burns […]
