Mike Davis Could Bounce Back Against Giants

Atlanta Falcons running back Mike Davis saw a decrease in touches last week, giving fantasy managers some pause heading into a Week 3 matchup against the Giants. While Davis ceded more touches to backup Cordarrelle Patterson, the former looked more impressive on the ground, averaging 4.2 yards per carry. While Davis' snap count percentage dropped […]

EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 6: English Premier League

Another week of profit last weekend. We correctly predicted Watford would beat Norwich despite being the underdogs and that both teams would score. Unfortunately, Norwich picked up a 95th-minute yellow card which stopped us sweeping the picks on the game. Then Sunday saw Chelsea beat Tottenham while keeping a clean sheet, both of which we […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 3

Week 2 of the 2021 NFL season is officially in the books. Just like in Week 1, overreactions will undoubtedly be made, but there's also a lot of good information we can use to help make decisions as we head into Week 3 and beyond. In this weekly column, we'll be looking at players whose […]

Randy Bullock A Borderline Streamer In Week 3

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock was promoted to the active roster ahead of last Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks and might have secured the starting job with his massive performance in Week 2. He went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 in extra-point tries in last Sunday’s 33-30 overtime win over the Seattle Seahawks. […]

Kyle Seager Dealing With Elbow Soreness

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager (elbow) is currently dealing with right elbow soreness. According to multiple sources, the injury has been bugging him for about a week now. He's been regularly playing the field lately, but he's starting at designated hitter for Thursday's game against Chris Bassitt and the Oakland Athletics. Dylan Moore is […]

Seahawks Defense Should Be Avoided In Week 3

The Seattle Seahawks defense has some solid pieces at every level, but they are still a group to avoid in fantasy in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Seahawks defense gave up 33 points in the team's loss to the Tennessee Titans while allowing over 500 yards of total offense, with over 200 yards […]

Buster Posey Getting The Day Off On Thursday

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey, fresh off a four-hit game, is getting a breather on Thursday as the team takes on Yu Darvish and the San Diego Padres. Curt Casali is drawing the start behind the plate and batting eighth in the game. Posey was a terror on Padres pitching over the last two […]

Julio Jones A Solid WR2 Against The Colts

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones will try to build on his impressive Week 2 performance in Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. He caught 6-of-8 targets for 128 yards in Sunday's 33-30 win over the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran wideout bounced back with a strong performance in Week 2 after being held […]

Chris Taylor Likely Still Unavailable On Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Chris Taylor (neck) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Colorado Rockies. According to Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, Taylor's stiff neck is feeling better, but he is "probably unavailable" off the bench for Thursday's game. Roberts also told reporters that Taylor would take some swings prior to Thursday's […]

Rams Defense Has A Tough Matchup In Week 3

This Los Angeles Rams defense is one of the best units in the NFL, but they have a pretty tough matchup in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs have put up 79 total points in their first two games, and they are one of the most loaded offenses in the league. The […]

Manny Machado Getting The Day Off On Thursday

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado is heading to the bench for Thursday's game against Logan Webb and the San Francisco Giants. The timing of the day off for Machado is a bit surprising given the fact that the Padres are in a tailspin and desperate for wins. They've dropped five straight and 10 […]

Michael Kopech To Start Game 2 Of Thursday's Doubleheader

Chicago White Sox pitcher Michael Kopech will start Game 2 of the team's doubleheader against the Cleveland Indians on Thursday. This will be his first start since May 14, when he pitched four innings against the Kansas City Royals and allowed one earned run while striking out five. The 25-year-old right-hander has struggled a bit […]

Carlos Rodon On Track To Start Next Wednesday

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Carlos Rodon (arm) is on track to make his next start against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday, according to White Sox manager Tony La Russa. He could also potentially start a day earlier on Tuesday. Rodon experienced arm soreness during his start against the Detroit Tigers this past Monday. The […]

Chris Bassitt Activated, Set To Start On Thursday

The Oakland Athletics have activated starting pitcher Chris Bassitt (face) from the injured list. He is set to start Thursday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The team placed relief pitcher Sam Moll on the paternity list in a corresponding move. Bassitt was sidelined for about a month. He suffered multiple facial fractures after being hit […]

Trey Sermon On A Good Path To Play Sunday

San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Trey Sermon (concussion) is "on a good path" to play in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. Sermon was limited in practice on Wednesday as he makes his way through the league's concussion protocol, and he could go from […]

Antonio Gibson Returns To Full Practice

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. Washington was likely just giving Gibson a breather on Wednesday for a nagging injury that he's been dealing with early in the season. The second-year back dominated the backfield touches in the Week 1 […]

Charlie Blackmon Absent From Thursday's Lineup

Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon is taking a seat on Thursday as the team faces Max Scherzer and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Sam Hilliard is drawing the start in right field and batting sixth in the game. Blackmon is currently riding a four-game hitting streak that has included four doubles. He's slashing .254/.333/.508 over the […]

Will Smith Out Of The Lineup On Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is taking a seat on Thursday as the team faces Kyle Freeland and the Colorado Rockies. Austin Barnes is getting the start behind the plate for the game. Smith has been productive as usual at the plate this month. Over 14 games in September, he's slashing .279/.404/.535 with three […]

James White On The Flex Radar For Week 3

New England Patriots running back James White has been a reliable PPR option through the first two games of the season. He has at least six catches for 45 yards in each game thus far. The hope is that he'll continue to stay involved, especially with Damien Harris (hand) being limited in practice. The problem […]

Odell Beckham Jr. To Be Game-Time Decision

Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) will be a game-time decision in Week 3 against the Chicago Bears. And if Beckham does make his season debut, it sounds as though he'll be on a pitch count. It's not what fantasy managers wanted to hear after Beckham […]

Sam Hilliard Goes Deep In Win Over The Dodgers

Colorado Rockies outfielder Sam Hilliard went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and two strikeouts in a 10-5 win over the Dodgers on Wednesday. Hilliard only came up with one hit in Wednesday's victory but it was a big one. He put the nail in the Dodgers' proverbial coffin in the bottom of the seventh inning […]

Matt Ryan Tough To Trust In Week 3

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan will take on the New York Giants in Week 3. Ryan was awful in Week 1 but started to show signs of a bounce-back the following week against Tampa Bay, throwing for 300 yards and two scores, though it ended in disappointment after he fired three interceptions. The veteran signal-caller […]

Eddie Rosario Taking A Seat On Thursday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Madison Bumgarner and the Arizona Diamondbacks. Adam Duvall, Jorge Soler and Guillermo Heredia will be patrolling the outfield for the game. Rosario has really started to heat up lately. He hit for the cycle this past Sunday and he has […]

Jason Pierre-Paul Likely To Be Inactive In Week 3

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul (shoulder) had a second opinion on his injured shoulder, and rest was the recommendation, according to a source. No final determination has been made, but it's unlikely that Pierre-Paul will play in Week 3 against the Los Angeles Rams. The 32-year-old veteran pass-rusher also missed practice on Wednesday. If […]

Daulton Varsho Heading To The Bench For Thursday's Game

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher/outfielder Daulton Varsho is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The team is going with Carson Kelly behind the plate and Jake McCarthy in center field. Varsho has been a regular in the lineup over the second half of the year and he's strung together some decent […]

C.J. Cron Collects Four Hits In Wednesday's Win

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron went 4-for-5 with two doubles, two runs scored and an RBI in a 10-5 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday. Cron had himself another big day at the plate, collecting four hits, including two doubles. He drove in one run and scored two others as well. The […]

Texans Expected To Be Without Justin Reid

Houston Texans standout safety Justin Reid (knee) is expected to miss the Thursday night game against the Carolina Panthers due to a sprained knee that has kept him out of practice the last two days, according to league sources not authorized to speak publicly. Lonnie Johnson is expected to replace Reid in the starting lineup, […]

Ketel Marte Sitting Out On Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte is getting a breather on Thursday as the team takes on Charlie Morton and the Atlanta Braves. Josh VanMeter is drawing the start at second base and batting fifth in the game. Marte started the week off strong with a three-double game on Monday. He's slashing .273/.368/.485 over the […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Misses Practice Wednesday

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. (ribs) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. Henderson suffered a cartilage injury to his ribs in the Week 2 win over the Indianapolis Colts, and he should be seen as questionable for a Week 3 meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 24-year-old has been pretty […]

Mac Jones A Low-End QB2 Versus Saints

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones has put together a fairly slow start to begin his NFL career. He has one passing touchdown and didn't surpass 200 yards against a horrendous Jets secondary in Week 2. His chances of throwing a touchdown won't get easier against the New Orleans Saints in Week 3. Last season, […]
