The Dallas Cowboys defense played opportunistic football in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Bucs. They recorded two interceptions, but allowed 31 points.

Pollard is an […]

Rob Gronkowski Hauls In Two Touchdowns

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski finished with eight receptions for 90 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets in Thursday's win over Dallas. The 32-year-old had an impressive season debut and didn't look like a veteran with wear-and-tear from playing for many years. It's apparent Gronk remains a favorite target of QB Tom […]

Dak Prescott Throws For Over 400 Yards In Week 1

Dak completed 42 of his 58 pass […]

Mike Evans Musters 24 Yards

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans managed only three receptions for 24 yards on six targets in Thursday's win over Dallas.

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Dylan Floro picked up his ninth save of the season in Thursday's win over the New York Mets.

With a collection of elite receiving weapons, Brady figures to remain […]

Michael Gallup Exits With Ankle Injury

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (ankle) is questionable to return to the team's Week 1 contest against the Buccaneers. Gallup had four catches for 36 yards before exiting. The way Dallas used Gallup was encouraging, even if the numbers didn't necessarily look great for fantasy purposes. If Gallup misses any time, Cedrick Wilson would […]

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher John Means fell to 5-7 in Thursday's 6-0 loss to the Royals.

Sony Michel Can Be Avoided In Week 1

Los Angeles Rams running back Sony Michel is a player that could be interesting later this year in fantasy, but he can ride your bench in Week 1 against the Chicago Bears. Michel just recently joined the roster, and he figures to be the RB2 in this Rams offense behind Darrell Henderson. The Bears were […]

Bradley Chubb Could Be Questionable For Week 1

Denver Broncos linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) had offseason surgery on his ankle, but he tweaked his other ankle in the team's preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams and was limited in practice on Thursday. Chubb has a shot to play in the season-opener on Sunday against the New York Giants, but if he does […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Isn't A Top Option In Week 1

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. is the team's starting running back after the season-ending injury to teammate Cam Akers, but he's not going to be a top fantasy option in Week 1 against the Chicago Bears. The Bears defensive strength this season is going to be up front against the run with […]

Tyrann Mathieu Up In The Air For Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu remains up in the air for Sunday's season-opener against the Cleveland Browns. Mathieu is vaccinated, but he remains on the league's COVID-19 list and must return two negative tests 48 hours apart in order to be cleared before Sunday.
