Elgton Jenkins Will Miss Week 3 Due To Injury

Green Bay Packers left tackle Elgton Jenkins (ankle) has been deemed inactive for Sunday's contest against San Francisco. Jenkins' absence is a hefty one for the Packers, who will have to counteract a highly skilled 49ers defense. While Green Bay's immediate plan to replace Jenkins isn't clear, Yosh Nijman could step in for his first […]

Adolis Garcia Has Three-Hit Performance

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia has struggled during the second half of the season. His bat was on fire to start the year, but things have settled down for Garcia. However, he put together a nice performance against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. He went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in the 8-5 […]

Nathaniel Lowe Smacks 16th Homer

Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe has been a bright spot in what has been a lackluster lineup lately. On Friday, Lowe went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the 8-5 win over the Baltimore Orioles. He continues to be a promising bat for the Rangers lineup, so hopefully he can carry […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 3

Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Oftentimes, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options. Last week, we saw Arizona's rookie wideout Rondale Moore go off for seven receptions, 114 yards, and a touchdown. Moore joined fellow rookies Ja'Marr Chase, Jaylen Waddle, […]

Spencer Howard Struggles Versus Orioles

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Spencer Howard did not put together his best outing against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. He went four innings, six hits allowed, four earned runs, and four strikeouts in the 8-5 win. Most of the damage against Howard came off a three-run home run in the second inning. He'll take a […]

Jets Still Believe In Denzel Mims

New York Jets second-year wide receiver Denzel Mims has just one catch for 40 yards through two games, and he was a healthy scratch in the Week 2 loss to the New England Patriots. Because he doesn't play special teams, Mims must learn all the wideout positions if he wants to start on game day […]

Raimel Tapia Reaches Base Twice And Scores In Loss

Colorado Rockies outfielder Raimel Tapia went 2-for-5 with a run scored and a strikeout in a 7-2 lopsided loss to the San Francisco Giants. Tapia got the things going for Colorado in the bottom of the first inning with a single and a run scored. They would go on to score two runs in the […]

Charlie Blackmon Knocks In A Run On Friday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, an RBI, and a strikeout in a 7-2 loss to the Giants on Friday. Blackmon was one of five Rockies to notch multiple hits in the contest but they were only able to muster two runs out of 11 hits as a club. […]

Peter Lambert Lasts 3 2/3 Innings In Season Debut

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Peter Lambert took a no-decision on Friday when he allowed two runs on four hits with one walk and two strikeouts over 3 2/3 innings in a 7-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants.

The Philadelphia Eagles activated tight end Zach Ertz from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday. It means that Ertz should be available to play on Monday night in Week 3 against the Dallas Cowboys. Ertz has seen only 12 fewer snaps and three fewer targets than Dallas Goedert through the first two weeks of the season, […]

Taylor Lewan Expected To Play Against Colts

Indianapolis Colts left tackle Taylor Lewan (knee) practiced in full all week and wasn't wearing a brace on his injured knee at all.

J.D. Martinez Doubles, Reaches Base Three Times

Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez reached base three times against the New York Yankees Friday, going 1-for-2 with two walks in an 8-3 loss to the division rivals. Martinez is slashing .304/.391/.554 with three homers over his last 15 games, and he's hit safely in seven of his last eight with three multi-hit […]

T.J. Watt Downgraded To Out In Week 3

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (groin) has been downgraded from questionable to out in Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Watt was close to getting the green light, so there's a good chance that he'll be able to return in Week 4, barring any setbacks. With Watt sitting out, Melvin Ingram will see more playing […]

Enrique Hernandez Reaches Base Four Times Friday

Boston Red Sox utility man Enrique Hernandez reached base four times against the New York Yankees Friday, going 2-for-3 with two walks and a run scored. Hernandez now has a five-game hitting streak to his name, during which time he's had three multi-hit performances and slugged three doubles and a home run. It appears any […]

Miles Sanders Should Be Good To Go

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (chest) was a full practice participant on Friday after being limited in practice on Thursday. Unless he suffers a setback, Sanders should be fine to serve as the team's lead back for the Monday night contest against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3. The 24-year-old has carried the ball […]

Rafael Devers Hits Three-Run Homer Friday

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers provided all the offense in a disappointing 8-3 loss to the New York Yankees Friday, going 1-for-4 with a three-run home run. It's Devers' 35th homer of the season, though just his third in September. With an .881 OPS, 95 runs, 108 RBI, and four steals, Devers appears […]

Nathan Eovaldi Blown Up Friday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi simply didn't have it against the New York Yankees Friday, giving up seven runs on seven hits and two walks in 2 2/3 innings. He struck out no batters and took his ninth loss of the season. This qualifies as the worst outing of the season for Eovaldi, […]

T.J. Hockenson On His Way To Becoming Elite

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson looks to be on his way to becoming an elite tight end in the NFL. Hockenson is the only player in the NFL through two games with eight-plus receptions in both games of 2021. He is also the third tight end in league history to have eight catches and […]

Paolo Espino Solid Again In No-Decision Friday

Lane Thomas Reaches Three Times, Steals A Base

Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas had a solid game Friday against the Cincinnati Reds, going 1-for-4 with a double, two walks, a run scored, and a stolen base. He's now successfully stolen six bases and been caught three times. He's slashing .287/.383/.517 in 143 at-bats as a National, and he needs to be in fantasy […]

D'Andre Swift To Be More Involved In Passing Game?

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift already has 12 catches through two games, but he could get more involved through the air earlier in games. While Detroit isn't giving up on their wide receivers just yet, head coach Dan Campbell said another solution is to get the ball in the hands of Swift and tight […]
