Ariane Lipski In Need Of A Big Win Saturday

It has not been the easiest of rides in the UFC for the former KSW strawweight champion Ariane Lipski (13-7), who is 2-4 inside the Octagon. After winning two bouts, Lipski has stumbled and has been finished in her last two outings, including her last UFC appearance in June. With her back truly against the […]

Mandy Bohm Set For UFC Debut Against A Dangerous Foe

The former TKO champion will finally make her long-awaited UFC debut as Mandy Bohm (7-0) enters the Octagon against another dangerous fighter in Ariane Lipski. With wins by various methods, the German will look to put away the former KSW champion in her UFC debut. Bohm is coming off of a unanimous-decision win in her […]

D'Andre Swift Limited With Injury In Practice

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was limited in practice once again despite having dominated in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. Leading into his 2021 debut, Swift battled a groin injury but managed to accumulate 104 yards on 19 touches with a whopping 11 targets, showing few signs of hindrance. Heading into […]

James Conner Could See Similar Workload In Week 2

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner will face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2. In Week 1, Conner saw 16 carries, no targets and no touchdowns. He saw multiple carries in the red zone but could not capitalize. Nevertheless, it seems like Conner will see the red-zone carries, while Edmonds will see the red-zone targets. […]

Marquez Callaway Could Bounce Back In Week 2

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway had a rough Week 1 performance but could be in a position to bounce back against the Panthers. Carolina's defense surrendered seven targets, five receptions, 97 yards, and two scores to Jets' number-one wideout Corey Davis, which bodes well for Callaway, who displayed a nice rapport with Jameis […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster A WR3 In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster finished Week 1's matchup against the Buffalo Bills with four catches for 52 yards. More notably, he was able to get going downfield after averaging just 8.6 yards per catch in 2020. Smith-Schuster has a chance to post a productive game in Week 2 as he will face off […]

Arman Tsarukyan Looking For Fourth Straight Win

One of Armenian's toughest fighters will take to the Octagon on Saturday as Arman Tsarukyan (16-2) takes to the main card as the night's biggest favorite when he faces Christos Giagos. Since joining the UFC in April of 2019, Tsarukyan has gone 3-1, with that lone loss coming in his debut to Islam Makhachev, which […]

Diontae Johnson A WR2 In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson will take on the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2. Johnson finished Week 1 with five catches for 36 yards and a touchdown while leading the Steelers with 10 targets. With Johnson continuing to draw the majority of the attention of Ben Roethlisberger in the offense, he will be […]

Christos Giagos Enters Octagon Against Tough Opponent

Since entering the UFC in late 2018, Christos Giagos (19-8) has looked decent in the Octagon, earning a record of 4-2, with one of those losses to the current UFC lightweight champion. His last two outings have been victories, including his most recent outing in May when he earned a second-round submission win over Sean […]

Chase Edmonds A Borderline RB1 Against Vikings

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds is primed for a big Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings. Against the Tennessee Titans in Week 1, Edmonds saw 16 touches -- 12 carries and four receptions for a total of 106 yards. Last week, the Vikings defense gave up 150 total yards to Joe Mixon, so Edmonds […]

Tony Jones Jr. Not Worth Starting At The Moment

New Orleans Saints running back Tony Jones Jr. impressed in his Week 1 debut, handling 12 touches against the Packers. Jones gets a good matchup against the Panthers, who yielded the eighth-most fantasy points per game to halfbacks last year. While the rookie back appears to have inherited a Latavius Murray-like role behind Alvin Kamara, […]

Eric Ebron Added To Injury Report With Hamstring Issue

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday with a hamstring injury. Ebron's mid-week downgrade is not a great sign for his availability for Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, although Friday's injury report will shed more light on the situation. If Ebron were to miss Sunday's game, […]

Dre Greenlaw To Have Surgery, Out 6-8 Weeks

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (groin) plans to have surgery either Thursday or Friday to fix a groin injury, according to a source. Greenlaw will miss six to eight weeks after the surgery. The 24-year-old had a big game in the Week 1 victory over the Detroit Lions, recording six tackles (four solo) and […]

Najee Harris Looks To Bounce Back In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris turned in a slow performance in a Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills, rushing for just 45 yards on 16 carries. He has a good chance to bounce back in Week 2 as the Steelers will welcome the Las Vegas Raiders to Pittsburgh on Sunday. The Raiders coughed […]

Ben Roethlisberger A High-End QB2 In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will face off against the Las Vegas Raiders at home in Week 2 after he threw for just 188 yards and a touchdown last week. Roethlisberger draws a plus matchup against a Raiders defense that struggled to defend the pass in 2020, ranking sixth in most fantasy points per game […]

Billy Price To Start At Center Thursday Night

The New York Giants are shifting around their offensive line and will have newly acquired offensive lineman Billy Price start at center on Thursday night against the Washington Football Team. Price was traded from the Cincinnati Bengals at the end of last month after the former first-rounder only started in nine games in his first […]

Gabriel Davis Back At Practice Thursday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis (ankle) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Barring a setback on Friday, Davis should be good to go to play in the Week 2 meeting with the Miami Dolphins. Although Davis was the only Bills receiver to find the end zone in the Week 1 […]

Alvin Kamara An Elite RB1 Play Against Panthers

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is primed for a big game against the Panthers in Week 2. Kamara didn't have the most eye-popping numbers in Week 1- though he was undoubtedly the centerpiece of the Saints offense, handling 24 touches including 20 carries, his third-highest total in 68 career games, totaling 91 scrimmage […]

Rockies-Braves Game Postponed on Thursday

Thursday's game between the Colorado Rockies and the Atlanta Braves has been postponed. Per an announcement on the Braves' official website, the game has been postponed "due to inclement weather and unplayable field conditions." German Marquez was previously scheduled to start for Colorado while Ian Anderson was set to start for Atlanta. Fantasy managers should […]

Jameis Winston A Low-End QB1 Against Panthers

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston draws a favorable matchup in Week 2 against the Panthers as he attempts to follow up his five-touchdown performance from Week 1. Winston diced up the Packers secondary, a unit that allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to signal-callers, for five scores, adding 37 yards with his legs, […]

Marquise Goodwin Hopes To Build On Week 1 Performance

Chicago Bears wide receiver Marquise Goodwin will look to build off a solid Week 1 performance this weekend against the Bengals. Goodwin caught four passes for a team-high 45 yards against the Rams as the Bears struggled to score points. The output certainly doesn't engender a lot of fantasy enthusiasm but it was a solid […]

Darnell Mooney Lacks Week 2 Fantasy Appeal

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney will take on a banged up Bengals secondary in Week 2. Mooney caught five passes for a paltry 26 yards in Week 1 against the Rams as the speedster was relegated to the check-down passing game. But Week 2 presents an opportunity for the Bears to open up the […]

Allen Robinson II Itching For More Chances

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II will take on the Bengals in Week 2 after a disappointing Week 1. Robinson caught six passes for only 35 yards against the Rams and never ran a route beyond 10 yards. The hope is that there will be a different game plan in place against a banged […]

Jimmy Graham Not Worth A Fantasy Start

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham will take on a Bengals defense that allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends last season. Graham played only 14 snaps in Week 1 and caught only one pass. The veteran has ceded the starting role to teammate Cole Kmet, and Graham's value exists only in the […]

Erik Jones A Good Possibility At Bristol

Erik Jones has nearly won the race at Bristol several times. The No. 20 car just has it when it comes to the short track. The 2017 race where he led 260 laps is still talked about today as he just barely missed out on a win. Last season, Jones finished fifth and third on […]

Kyler Murray Primed For Big Week 2 Performance

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray gets a favorable matchup for Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings. Last week, Murray looked like the early favorite to win MVP. In Week 1, the Vikings defense gave up 261 yards and two touchdowns to Joe Burrow. It could get worse for the Vikings, because Murray had five total […]

Steven Duggar Isn't Starting Thursday

San Francisco Giants outfielder Steven Duggar isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the San Diego Padres and right-hander Pierce Johnson. Duggar is batting .268 with a .341 on-base percentage, eight home runs, and six stolen bases in 273 plate appearances this season. Kris Bryant started Wednesday's game in left field and will move […]

Cole Kmet's Arrow Pointing Up

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet will try and build off a solid Week 1 performance when the team takes on the Bengals this Sunday. Kmet caught five passes on seven targets for 42 yards against the Rams and was impressive using his instincts to create space in tight passing lanes. The second-year tight end […]
