Can Packers Defense Create Week 1 Turnovers?

The Green Bay Packers defense will take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 1.

Trevor Lawrence Starts Season With Ideal Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars star rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence lines up to face the Houston Texans in Week 1, and it's hard to imagine a better matchup, as the Texans have the NFL's lowest projected win total. The Texans allowed the fourth-most points to opposing signal-callers in 2020, and they project to regress even further as a […]

Kenny Golladay Practicing Wednesday

New York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (hamstring) was able to take part in individual drills at practice on Wednesday. The former Detroit Lions wideout returned to practice last week after missing most of training camp and all of the preseason with a hamstring strain. Unless he suffers a setback this week, all signs are […]

Lions Defense Not Worth A Play

The Detroit Lions defense will kick off its season against the 49ers in Week 1.

Kadarius Toney On The Practice Field Wednesday

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was on the practice field on Wednesday. COVID-19 and a hamstring injury kept Toney sidelined for the entire preseason, so fantasy managers in dynasty/keeper leagues shouldn't be expecting a whole lot from the rookie out of the gates. Toney, the 20th overall pick in this year's […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle), who dealt with an ankle injury last month, said he's "100 percent" healthy and "ready to go" for Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Star Lotulelei Not A Sure Thing For Week 1

Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Star Lotulelei (calf) missed his second straight day of practice on Wednesday with a calf injury. The Bills remain optimistic that Lotulelei will be available for the season opener on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but we'd call him questionable for now. He'll likely need to get in some sort of […]

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz (foot) will be a full practice participant on Wednesday, according to head coach Frank Reich. Wentz will be on the field in Week 1 for his Colts debut against the Seattle Seahawks.

J.D. McKissic Not A Starting Option In Week 1

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic was one of the best pass-catching running backs in all of the NFL last year after recording 80 receptions (110 targets) while serving as the primary third-down back. Antonio Gibson is primed for a larger workload as a sophomore, so McKissic's outlook is not nearly as promising this […]

Chi Chi Gonzalez Headed To Injured List

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez (oblique) has been placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right oblique strain, the team announced. Gonzalez is having a miserable season, so this news shouldn't affect many fantasy leagues. He's sporting a 6.50 ERA with just a 12.5 K% and 18 HRs allowed over 99.2 […]

Curtis Samuel Begins Practice, Then Heads To Sidelines

Washington Football Team wide receiver Curtis Samuel (groin) joined the team at practice once again on Wednesday but then headed to the sidelines after appearing to be in some discomfort.

Washington Defense A Solid Starting Option Week 1

The Washington Football Team D/ST is a solid starting option for fantasy managers in Week 1 as they take on the Los Angeles Chargers. Although they are going up against a talented offense that features the likes of Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen, and Austin Ekeler, the Washington defense should be started with confidence. Last year, […]

Matt Olson Collects RBI In Loss To White Sox

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson went 0-for-4 with an RBI in a loss to the White Sox on Tuesday. Olson drove in a run early with a sac fly, but couldn't muster anything else versus a stingy Chicago bullpen. Olson has been quiet lately, but he still ranks in the top-eight percent in baseball […]

Starling Marte Swipes 43rd Base Of Season On Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Starling Marte went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the White Sox on Tuesday.
