John Gibson Misses Friday's Game With Injury

Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson (lower body) is unavailable for Friday's clash with the Wild. He put on a real show with 33 saves in the season opener against Winnipeg but also got hurt in Wednesday's 4-1 win. The Ducks live and die by the form of Gibson, so this is obviously awful news for […]

Kyler Murray, DeAndre Hopkins Will Play Sunday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (shoulder) and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (illness) were both removed from the final injury report for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. Hopkins missed two practices this week with a non-COVID-19-related illness, but he was back on Friday and is good to go. Murray dealt with a right shoulder issue […]

Thatcher Demko Faces Flyers On Friday

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will record his second appearance of the season on Friday against Philadelphia. He made a losing start to the year on Wednesday against Edmonton, despite stopping 32 of 34 shots to post a nice .941 save percentage. Home teams have been crushing it early in the season, so this will […]

Chase Edmonds Listed As Questionable

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is questionable for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. Edmonds was questionable last week as well, but he played through the injury and handled just nine touches for 34 yards in the win over the San Francisco 49ers. James Conner continues […]

Ryan Ellis In, Rasmus Ristolainen Out On Friday

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body) won't be on the ice in Friday's season opener against Vancouver. He and Ryan Ellis (undisclosed) have both struggled to get ready for the first game of the season and it just comes a little bit too soon for the former Sabre, while Ellis is ready to go. […]

Joe Burrow Ready To Play In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (throat) practiced in full all week and was removed from the final injury report for Week 6 against the Detroit Lions. Burrow suffered a throat contusion in the Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers and was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but it turned out to […]

Joe Mixon Draws A Questionable Tag

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is listed as questionable on the final injury report for Week 6 against the Detroit Lions. Mixon was limited in practice on Wednesday and Friday and sat out on Thursday. Despite the questionable tag, fantasy managers shouldn't be worried, as the Bengals expect Mixon to handle a normal […]

Erik Gustafsson Makes Second Blackhawks Debut On Friday

Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Erik Gustafsson will replace Ian Mitchell in the lineup on Friday against New Jersey. The 29-year-old officially rejoined the club on a one-year deal at the start of the week and he'll look to replicate some of his old form. Gustafsson had a wonderful 60-point campaign for Chicago in 2018-19. It's unlikely […]

Damien Harris Questionable To Face Cowboys

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ribs) is listed as questionable to play against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6 after finishing the week with two limited practices. J.J. Taylor (groin), who was inactive in Week 5 after losing a costly fumble in Week 4, was added to the injury report after a limited […]

Jonathan Bernier Starts Season Opener For New Jersey

New Jersey Devils goaltender Jonathan Bernier will guard the cage in Friday's season opener against Chicago, with Mackenzie Blackwood (heel) still recovering from offseason surgery. It's a Devils debut for Bernier, who was picked up by New Jersey on a two-year deal in the summer. The veteran netminder played in Detroit last season, posting a […]

Henry Ruggs III - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III has the potential to come up big for his team in Week 6 against the host Denver Broncos. The 22-year-old saw limited production in last week's 20-9 loss to the Chicago Bears but still caught 3-of-3 passes for 51 yards. Ruggs is currently tied for third in […]

Washington Optimistic On Terry McLaurin

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin (hamstring) missed practice on Friday and is questionable for Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs, but head coach Ron Rivera said that the team used an abundance of caution after McLaurin said his hamstring "felt tight and sore" on Friday. McLaurin is expected to be on the […]

Mike Williams Officially Listed As Questionable

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) missed practice all week and is listed as questionable for a Week 6 showdown with the Baltimore Ravens. This one looks like it'll come down to a game-time decision, but the good news is that fantasy managers will know before the early games begin on Sunday. Williams […]

Ezekiel Elliott Hit With Questionable Tag

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (ribs) is listed as questionable on the final injury report for Week 6 against the New England Patriots. Elliott was able to practice on a limited basis all week, so he should be able to suit up Sunday afternoon unless he suffers a setback on Saturday. Backup Tony Pollard […]

Carlos Felipe Facing Heavyweight Legend Andrei Arlovski

Carlos Felipe (11-1) will battle in Saturday night's co-main event with intentions of knocking off heavyweight legend Andrei Arlovski. On a three-fight winning streak in the UFC, Felipe has shown an ability to go the distance and pull out the victory time after time. He also has big power in his hands, with six of […]

Zane Gonzalez - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers kicker Zane Gonzalez is not a strong play in Week 6. In four games with Carolina, the kicker has gone 6-for-8 in field goals and 10-for-11 in extra points. The Panthers don't have the most high-powered offense and the unit has struggled in some games this season, meaning the chances for Gonzalez may […]

D.K. Metcalf Good To Go For Sunday Night

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (foot) was removed from the final injury report for Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and will be available on Sunday night. Metcalf raised some eyebrows when he didn't practice on Thursday, but he's good to go despite dealing with a foot issue. The 23-year-old superstar comes into the […]

Andrei Arlovski To Appear In Saturday's Co-Main Event

A winner of three of his last four contests, American Top Team heavyweight Andrei Arlovski (31-20) returns to action on Saturday looking to build off of his decision win over Chase Sherman back in April. With his 52nd professional bout set for Saturday, there is not much the seasoned veteran has not dealt with. DraftKings […]

Panthers Defense A Low-End Starting Option

The Carolina Panthers defense is a low-end starting option in Week 6 against the Vikings. This unit has been phenomenal in 2021, boasting 16 sacks, four picks, and four forced fumbles. In five games, the unit has allowed more than 21 points only once, including allowing 14 or fewer points in the first three games. […]

Chris Carson Ruled Out For Another Game

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (neck) has been ruled out for the Week 6 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night. Although it was initially reported that Carson's neck injury isn't a long-term injury, he's now in danger of landing on Injured Reserve to join quarterback Russell Wilson (finger). An IR placement would […]

Erick Gonzalez Hoping For A Win In His Debut

It is a huge opportunity but also a huge task for Erick Gonzalez (14-5) on Saturday when he makes his debut against the most-tenured UFC fighter in Jim Miller. A solid striker, eight of his 14 career wins have come by knockout/TKO. The Combate veteran is also on a two-fight winning streak and would love […]

Ian Thomas - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas is not a viable fantasy option in Week 6. Thomas did post a season-best four receptions for 40 yards on five targets in Week 5, but he has been underwhelming other than that. The TE hasn't posted more than 17 yards in any other contest. Even though TE is […]

Jim Miller Still Going Strong

The ageless wonder that is Jim Miller (32-16) returns to action on Saturday for his 49th professional MMA bout when he takes on Erick Gonzalez on the night's main card. Dropping three of his last four bouts, Miller is in desperate need of a win if he wants to turn around his recent momentum. DraftKings […]

Robby Anderson - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson is not a strong fantasy play this week. Anderson has struggled in 2021, not posting more than 57 yards in a single contest. Even though he had 11 and seven targets in the last two weeks, he only posted 46 and 30 yards, respectively, to go along with those […]

Derek Carr - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has a very tough task ahead of him with his team visiting the Denver Broncos in Week 6. The 30-year-old signal-caller went without a touchdown pass in last week's 20-9 loss to the Chicago Bears, completing 22-of-35 passes for 206 yards with one interception in the defeat. In addition […]

DJ Moore - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore is a solid WR1 option in Week 6. Moore did post season-low numbers last week, five receptions for 42 yards, but overall the 24-year-old has been spectacular as the clear-cut WR1 for Carolina this season. He has at least 79 yards in four of five games this season including […]

Darren Waller - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller will have to be one of his team's best offensive weapons against the Denver Broncos in Week 6. The 29-year-old missed a day of practice this week with a knee issue but has been deemed healthy for Sunday's game against a Broncos defense that is ranked sixth against […]

Mayra Bueno Silva Hoping For Big Upset Saturday

With a 1-1-1 record in the Octagon, Mayra Bueno Silva (7-1-1) would like to have a strong outing on Saturday after last appearing in a draw. Very dangerous on the mat, five of Silva's seven career wins have come by submission. If she hopes to pull out the win Saturday, it's going to have to […]

Chuba Hubbard - Week 6 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard is a flex option in Week 6 with Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) once again out for the contest. Hubbard posted his best numbers of the season last week, getting 24 carries for 101 yards and five receptions for 33 yards on six targets. The rookie should once again see volume […]
