Isaiah McKenzie Practicing In Full For Week 1

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie (shoulder) is practicing in full for Week 1 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He injured his shoulder in practice a couple of weeks ago and still hasn't fully recovered. The MRI came back clean, which is a good sign going forward. However, it's unlikely that McKenzie is going to have […]

Adam Wainwright Pitches Into The Ninth Inning Again

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright worked into the ninth inning again in Wednesday's start. He coughed up two runs in the ninth and wasn't able to finish the game, also losing the quality start in the process. In total, he tossed 8 1/3 innings against a powerful Dodgers lineup, allowing four runs on […]

Dawson Knox Could Struggle Against Pittsburgh

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox is often times the lost man for this offensive unit. However, he did scored in five of his last nine games for the Bills last season. Sadly, he'll get a tough matchup to kickoff the season against the Pittsburgh Steelers. A defense that allowed just three touchdowns to tight […]

Emmanuel Sanders Hopeful To Play In Opener

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (foot) was limited during Wednesday's practice. Obviously, fantasy managers don't like to see that with Week 1 being just a few days away. However, Sanders is currently listed as questionable, but it doesn't sound like this issue should hold him out of the season opener. Right now, fantasy managers […]

Sandy Alcantara Tosses A Gem On Wednesday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara was outstanding in a start against the New York Mets on Wednesday. The Marlins ace pitched nine innings, allowing just one run (a solo homer) on four hits and a walk while striking out 14.

Jose Altuve Homers On Wednesday

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve went 1-for-5 with a solo homer during an 8-5 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. The 31-year-old took Mariners starting pitcher Tyler Anderson deep during the fifth inning for his 27th homer of the season. After a rough 2020, the seven-time All-Star has rebounded this season, posting 27 […]

Cole Beasley Remains Trustworthy PPR Option

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley is coming off a career-year last season. He finished with a career-high 967 yards and 82 receptions. The veteran receiver has seen over 100 targets during both of his seasons in Buffalo. That is likely going to remain the same, especially with John Brown departing over the offseason. However, […]

Stefon Diggs Draws Tough Matchup

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs will have a tough challenge ahead of him against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. He is coming off an incredible 2020 season where he recorded 127 receptions and 1,535 yards in 16 games. Diggs was likely the first wideout off draft boards and for good reason. However, he'll […]

Zack Moss Likely Touchdown Dependent For Week 1

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss is coming off a lackluster rookie campaign. He rushed for 481 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games last season. Devin Singletary was the lead back, but Moss saw plenty of chances behind him. It sounds like the two of them will split up the carries this season. Although, […]

Brendan Rodgers Reaches Twice In Loss

Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers went 2-for-5 with a pair of singles and two strikeouts in a 7-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday. Rodgers was one of two Rockies to collect multiple hits in Wednesday's defeat. The 25-year-old infielder was heating up at the plate after the All-Star break but has […]

Devin Singletary Could Struggle In Opener

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary was not much of a fantasy option in most formats last season. He finished with 687 yards and two total touchdowns on the ground in 16 games. Things aren't going to get easier for him against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. A team that allowed the 10th-fewest amount […]

Josh Allen Gets Tough Assignment Week 1

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is no doubt one of the best options to have at QB this fantasy season. However, he'll get a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers defense in Week 1. A secondary that allowed the third-fewest amount of passing yards in 2020. The Steelers didn't have any major changes on defense […]

Gerald Everett Should Be Faded In Week 1

Seattle Seahawks tight end Gerald Everett is one of the more interesting fantasy tight ends in 2021, but your fantasy trip with him should be delayed for at least a week. It's unclear what his role is going to be in this Seahawks offense and unless you're desperate for a tight end to play in […]

Elias Diaz Shows Off His Power On Wednesday

Colorado Rockies catcher Elias Diaz went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, two doubles, and a run scored in a 7-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday. Diaz had a big day at the plate, swatting a pair of doubles and a solo home run. He was the only player on the Rockies […]

D.K. Metcalf Plans For A Big Week 1

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf was a WR1 last season, and he'll be looking for another WR1 campaign in 2021. It starts in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts on the road. Metcalf is explosive enough to make big plays happen at any given time, and that's the area of the defense that the […]

Jon Gray Whiffs Eight In No-Decision

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Jon Gray took a no-decision on Wednesday when he allowed three runs on six hits with one walk and eight strikeouts over five innings in a 7-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants. Facing the Giants is no easy task these days but Gray was throwing a shutout through the first […]

Tyler Lockett Has WR1 Upside Against The Colts

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is coming off of a WR1 season, and he'll be trying to start Week 1 with a strong performance against the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts' defense is one of the better groups in football, but the main area where they lack consistent talent is at the cornerback position. They're […]

Julio Jones Could Flourish In Titans Debut

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Julio Jones (leg) is expected to play in Week 1 and is a solid WR2 option in a projected shootout (52.5 over/under) against the Arizona Cardinals. The former Atlanta Falcon missed most of training camp due to a leg injury but is expected to suit up in Week 1. Arizona was […]

Projecting RB Potential: Talent, Touches, Team Context

Running backs are the hardest position to project for fantasy football yet the most critical. A talented runner who has breakout potential may be hampered by a poor offensive system or limited touches. Conversely, a player who gets a high number of touches may not have the ability to take full advantage of the situation. […]

A.J. Brown Expected To Play, Projected WR1 Vs. Arizona

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) is expected to play in Week 1 and is a surefire WR1 in a projected shootout (52.5 over/under) against the Arizona Cardinals. He did not practice on Wednesday and reportedly was given an extra day of rest before the 2021 regular season. Brown is expected to suit up […]

Matt Wisler Exits Early Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays reliever Matt Wisler left Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox with an apparent injury, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. It's unclear what kind of injury occurred, with more information to come. Wisler, who was just activated from the injured list on Wednesday, has put up good numbers […]

Ryan Tannehill A QB1 In A Projected Shootout

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill gets a juicy matchup in what is projected to be a high-scoring affair against the Arizona Cardinals. The 52.5 over/under is the highest of all games in Week 1. Tannehill finished as a top-10 quarterback in 2020; he completed 315-of-481 passes for 33 touchdowns and seven interceptions while rushing for […]

Browns Defense Should Be Avoided In Fantasy In Week 1

The Cleveland Browns defense is expected to be much improved in 2021 after the team spent a good bit of their resources on improving that side of the ball in the offseason. That being said, they draw a tough road matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1. The Chiefs obviously have one of […]

Vince Velasquez Looks Good In Second Rehab Start

Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Vince Velasquez (finger) was sharp in his second rehab start, striking out nine over 3.2 innings while allowing one run on one hit and one walk. Velasquez has been out of action since late July after a blister placed him on the injured list on August 2. He should be close to […]

Austin Hooper A High-End TE2 In Week 1

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper draws a plus matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1. The Chiefs were generous to the tight end position in 2020, allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game. Hooper is coming off a disappointing first season in Cleveland but he is in play as a decent starting […]

Jarvis Landry A Flex Option For Week 1

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry will take on the Kansas City Chiefs on the road in Week 1. Landry finished the 2020 season with 72 catches for 840 yards and three touchdowns, pedestrian numbers despite the fact that Odell Beckham Jr. missed the final nine games of the season with a torn ACL. Now […]

Odell Beckham Jr. A WR3 For Week 1

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will take on the Kansas City Chiefs on the road in Week 1. Sunday's game will mark the first time Beckham appears in a regular-season game since he tore his ACL during Week 7 last year. The veteran receiver took limited reps in Wednesday's practice as he gets […]

Tim Anderson Takes Batting Practice Wednesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (hamstring) took batting practice on Wednesday, according to James Fegan of The Athletic. Anderson was placed on the injured list on September 1 after straining his left hamstring. It's a step in the right direction, and hopefully, he can continue his progression and make it back on the field […]

Derrick Henry Is Matchup Proof, Elite Option Vs. Arizona

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is matchup proof and gets to face an Arizona Cardinals defense that has allowed 125.5 rushing yards per game. He is a surefire RB1 and will begin the 2021 season against a defense that surrendered the 11th most fantasy points to opposing running backs. The 27-year-old had 2,027 rushing […]

Kareem Hunt A Solid Flex Play In Week 1

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt will square off against his old team when he travels to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs in Week 1. Hunt managed to find the end zone the last time he faced the Chiefs while rushing for 32 yards on six carries in a playoff loss. Fantasy gamers […]
